If, in the absence of a protective order or other remedy or the receipt of a waiver by Buyer, Seller or any of its Controlled Affiliates is required to disclose such Confidential Information, such Person, without Liability hereunder, may disclose that portion (but only that portion) of such Confidential Information which it is legally required to disclose.

(b) Non-Solicitation. As a material inducement to the Parties to enter into this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements and consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, for a period [***]:

(i) Seller will not directly or indirectly (whether by itself, through a Controlled Affiliate or in partnership or conjunction with, or as a member, manager, stockholder, owner, partner, officer, director, employee, consultant or agent of, any other Person), solicit, induce or encourage any Transferred Employee to become employed or engaged by Seller or one of its Controlled Affiliates, hire any Transferred Employee, or knowingly solicit, induce or encourage any Transferred Employee to no longer be employed or engaged by Buyer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller and its Controlled Affiliates shall not be restricted from taking any of the foregoing actions after receipt of the prior written approval from the current head of human resources of Buyer, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and Seller and its Controlled Affiliates shall not be restricted from (x) advertising job openings by use of newspapers, magazines, the Internet and other media not specifically directed at Transferred Employees or hiring any individual who responds to such communications, or (y) hiring or soliciting any Transferred Employee who has been terminated by, or is under formal notice of termination from, Buyer.

prohibited by this Section to become employed or engaged by Buyer or one of its Affiliates, hire any employee of Seller that is not a Business Employee or any individual who was an employee of Seller within [***] of the date of the solicitation prohibited by this Section, or knowingly solicit, induce or encourage any employee of Seller that is not a Business Employee or any individual who was an employee of Seller within [***] of the date of the solicitation prohibited by this Section to no longer be employed or engaged by Seller. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer and its Affiliates shall not be restricted from taking any of the foregoing actions after receipt of the prior written approval from the current head of human resources of Seller, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and Buyer and its Affiliates shall not be restricted from (x) advertising job openings by use of newspapers, magazines, the Internet and other media not specifically directed at the employees of Seller other than Business Employees or (y) hiring or soliciting any such employee of Seller who has been terminated by, or is under formal notice of termination from, Seller.

(c) Acknowledgement. The Parties acknowledge and agree that the periods of restriction and the restraints imposed by the provisions of this Section 6.6, as applicable, are fair and reasonably required for the protection of the legitimate interests of the other Party and constitute a material inducement to the Parties to enter into this Agreement and consummate the transaction contemplated by this Agreement and do not preclude or prevent either Party from earning a suitable livelihood. If the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction declares that any term or provision of this Section 6.6 is invalid or unenforceable, the Parties agree that the court making the determination of invalidity or unenforceability will have the power to reduce the scope, duration or area of the term or provision, to delete specific words or phrases or to replace any invalid or unenforceable 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 term or provision, and this Agreement will be enforceable against the Parties, as applicable, as so modified. Each Party agrees that any violation of the covenants contained in this Section 6.6 will cause irreparable harm to the other Party that will not be adequately compensated for by money damages; therefore, in addition to any other remedies the other Party may have under this Agreement or otherwise, such Party will be entitled to an injunction from any court of competent jurisdiction restraining the violating Party from committing or continuing any violation of this Section 6.6, without the requirement of posting any bond or other indemnity.

6.7 Insurance Matters.

a claim on Buyer’s behalf, after the Closing Date, under such Third Party Insurance Policy with respect to such Insurable Claim. Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly file such claims with the applicable insurance carriers.

6.8 Post-Closing Receipts and Possession of Assets.

(a) After the Closing Date, Seller shall transfer promptly to Buyer from time to time (but in any event on a weekly basis) any payments constituting Acquired Assets received by Seller.

Prior to the Closing, Seller shall cooperate with Buyer in making any required or, in Buyer’s reasonable discretion, necessary and proper, communications with Business Employees and Key Contractors regarding the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and any employee benefit plans or other benefit arrangements. At any time and from time to time after the Closing, at the request and expense of any Party, the other Parties shall execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, all such deeds, assignments, and other documents, and take or cause to be taken all such other actions, as the requesting Party reasonably deems necessary or advisable in order to complete, perfect or evidence any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

6.10 Employment.

(a) Approximately [***] prior to the Closing Date, Buyer will offer to employ each employee of the Business set forth on Section 6.10 of the Disclosure Schedules who is actively employed by the Business on the Closing Date (the “Business Employees”).

Buyer any obligation to retain any employee in its employment. Business Employees who accept their offer of employment and commence employment with Buyer as of the Closing shall be referred to as “Transferred Employees.”

(b) Seller shall promptly notify Buyer in writing if any employee set forth on Section 6.10 of the Disclosure Schedules ceases to be employed by Seller or goes on leave of absence prior to the Closing. Section 6.10 of the Disclosure Schedules may be updated with the prior written consent of Buyer and Seller.

6.11 Employee Benefit Matters.

(a) Immediately after the Closing, all of the Transferred Employees will cease participation in all Employee Plans. Further, Seller shall assume, retain and remain solely responsible for any and all Liabilities and obligations for benefits under the Employee Plans and neither Buyer nor its Affiliates shall have any liability or obligation whatsoever with respect to such Liabilities or obligations for benefits. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer shall be liable to provide Transferred Employees with their 2021 bonus payment calculated at target and accrued through the Closing pursuant to the agreement between the Seller and Buyer related to same (which shall include terms for Buyer to return to Seller any unpaid bonus amounts due to a Transferred Employees termination of employment or otherwise prior to the payment date) related to monies that Seller escrowed for such purpose.

(b) From immediately after the Closing until December 31, 2021, Buyer shall provide Transferred Employees with (i) base salary or hourly wage and incentive compensation opportunities (but not including any awards under any equity based plan of Buyer or any of its Affiliates) that are substantially comparable in the aggregate to such salary or hourly wage and incentive compensation opportunities (but not including any awards under any equity based plan of Buyer or any of its Affiliates) that such Transferred Employees received from Seller immediately prior to the Closing Date and (ii) employee benefits (but not including any benefits under any defined benefit pension plan of Buyer or any of its Affiliates) that are substantially comparable in the aggregate to such employee benefits that such Transferred Employees received from Seller immediately prior to the Closing Date.

(d) In the event Buyer requires certain information or data with respect to Transferred Employees as it relates to any required governmental filing including but not limited to under the Affordable Care Act or in order to meet its obligations under this Section 6.11, Seller shall provide such requested information as soon as practicable after receipt of a written request

from Buyer and in no event later than [***] after such receipt, in a form that is mutually agreeable between Buyer and Seller.

(e) As soon as practicable after the Closing Date, Buyer shall pay each Transferred Employee an amount equal to such Transferred Employee’s Accrued Vacation, subject to applicable withholding and taxes. For the avoidance of doubt, the Parties acknowledge and agree the Transferred Employees are entitled to such payment as a result of their termination of employment with Seller and that but for Buyer’s agreement to make this payment of Seller’s behalf, Seller would otherwise be required to make such payment pursuant to applicable Law. Further, Seller agrees to indemnify and hold Buyer harmless with respect to any Liabilities (but not including the amounts of such Accrued Vacation required to be paid to such Transferred Employees) that Buyer may incur as a result of making such payments on Seller’s behalf.

(f) Nothing contained in this Agreement, express or implied, (i) is intended to confer or shall confer upon any individual or any legal representative of any individual (including employees, retirees, or dependents or beneficiaries of employees or retirees) any right as a direct party to, or a third party beneficiary of, this Agreement or (ii) shall be deemed to confer upon any such individual or legal representative any rights under or with respect to any plan, program or arrangement described in or contemplated by this Agreement, and each such individual or legal representative shall be entitled to look only to the express terms of any such plans, program or arrangement for his or her rights thereunder.

(g) Nothing contained in this Agreement, express or implied, shall prohibit Buyer from, subject to Law, adding, deleting or changing providers of benefits, changing, increasing or decreasing co‑payments, deductibles or other requirements for coverage or benefits (e.g., utilization review or pre‑certification requirements), and/or making other changes in the administration or in the design, coverage and benefits provided to Transferred Employees. No provision of this Agreement shall be construed as a limitation on the right of Buyer to suspend, amend, modify or terminate any employee benefit plan of Buyer or any of its Affiliates. Further, (i) no provision of this Agreement shall be construed as an amendment to any employee benefit plan and (ii) no provision of this Agreement shall be construed as limiting Buyer’s discretion and authority to interpret its respective employee benefit and compensation plans, agreements arrangements, and programs, in accordance with their terms and Law.

6.12 Defined Contribution Plans. Immediately after the Closing, Transferred Employees will cease participation in any Employee Plan that is a defined contribution plan intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code and is maintained by or for the benefit of such Transferred Employees. As soon as practicable after the Closing Date, each Transferred Employee will be permitted to elect a distribution of his or her account balance in such Employee Plan and will be permitted to roll over his or her account balances (but not including any outstanding loans) in such Employee Plan (or any portion thereof) to a defined contribution plan maintained by Buyer after the Closing Date.

6.13 COBRA. As of the Closing, Buyer will assume the Liability for providing and administering all required notices and benefits under COBRA and all Liabilities under COBRA with respect to Transferred Employees and their spouses and dependents for qualifying events that

occur after the Closing Date. Seller will retain any and all Liabilities under COBRA for qualifying events that occurred on or prior to the Closing Date including any Liabilities with respect to “M&A qualified beneficiaries” as defined under COBRA.

6.14 WARN Act. Seller shall be responsible for any required notices and other obligations under the WARN Act for any terminations by it up to and including the date and time of Closing, and Buyer shall be responsible for any required notices and any other obligations under the WARN Act for any terminations by it after the date and time of Closing as it relates to Transferred Employees.

6.15 Tax Matters.

(a) Seller will prepare and timely file (i) all Tax Returns of Seller and (ii) all other Tax Returns for income, gross receipts and similar Taxes (including any business, professional and occupational license Taxes or similar Taxes) required to be filed in respect of the Acquired Assets and the Business for all Tax periods ending on or prior to the Closing Date (each a “Pre-Closing Tax Period”). Such Tax Returns described in (ii) shall be prepared in a manner consistent with the past practices, unless otherwise required by applicable Law. To the extent reasonably expected to impact Buyer or the Business after the Closing, Seller shall provide Buyer with reasonable opportunity to review and comment (which shall include not less than [***] to review and provide comments to Seller) on each such Tax Return described in clause (ii) of this paragraph prior to filing, and shall consider in good faith changes to such Tax Returns reasonably requested by Buyer to ensure that such Tax Returns are consistent with the terms of this Agreement. Buyer will prepare and timely file all Tax Returns with respect to the Business or the Acquired Assets for any Straddle Period, for any Pre-Closing Tax Period not otherwise required to be prepared by Seller pursuant to this Section 6.15(a), and for any period commencing following the Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for the avoidance of doubt, each Party will be responsible for preparing and filing its own Tax Returns.

(b) The Parties agree that any Apportioned Obligation, or any refund, rebate or similar payment received by Seller or Buyer with respect to any Taxes that are Apportioned Obligations, will be apportioned between Seller and Buyer based upon the number of days in the applicable Straddle Period falling on or before the Closing Date and the number of days in the applicable Straddle Period falling after the Closing Date. Seller will be responsible for the amount apportioned to days on or before the Closing Date, and Buyer will be responsible for the amount apportioned to days after the Closing Date. Seller will pay Apportioned Obligations that are due and payable on or prior to the Closing Date and bill Buyer for any part of that amount apportioned to Buyer. Buyer will pay Apportioned Obligations that are due and payable after the Closing Date and bill Seller for any part of that amount apportioned to Seller. Notwithstanding any other provision contained in this Agreement (including the limitations set forth in Sections 7.2 and 7.4 hereof), any obligation arising out of this Section 6.15(b) will not be considered a Loss that is subject to the Basket, Cap, or any survival period or other limit of time, and any loss for which Seller is responsible may be satisfied, at Buyer’s election, by Seller.

(c) If Buyer receives a refund with respect to Taxes for which Seller is wholly or partially responsible under Section 6.15(b) hereof, Buyer will pay, within [***] following the

receipt of such refund, the amount of such refund attributable to Seller. If Seller receives a refund with respect to Taxes for which Buyer is wholly or partially responsible under Section 6.15(b) hereof, Seller will pay, within [***] following the receipt of such refund, the amount of such refund attributable to Buyer.

(d) Each Party will provide the other Party with such assistance and non-privileged information relating to the Business and the Acquired Assets as may reasonably be requested in connection with the preparation of any Tax Return or the conduct of any audit, examination or any other proceeding by any Tax Authority. Each Party will retain and provide to the other Party all non-privileged records and other information which may be relevant to any such Tax Return, audit, examination or any other proceeding. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Party will retain, for a period of [***] from and after the Closing Date, copies of all Tax Returns, supporting work schedules and other records relating to the Business and the Acquired Assets for all Pre-Closing Tax Periods and Straddle Periods, or (if they will be retained for [***]) will offer such records to the other Party prior to disposing of them.

(e) Under Section 9 of the Manufacturing Services Agreement, Buyer is obligated to perform certain manufacturing services for the Seller, over a specified period, generally without further compensation. The Parties acknowledge and agree that the agreed estimated value of such manufacturing services set forth in Section 1.5 shall be treated as deferred contingent payments for the purchase of the Acquired Assets on the Closing Date and shall impute interest in accordance with Section 483 of the Code with respect to such amounts, unless otherwise required by a taxing authority. (the “Intended Tax Treatment”). Consistent therewith, (1) Buyer shall record manufacturing services income over time and corresponding purchase payments made to Seller and in amounts reflecting the value of such manufacturing services and (2) Seller shall record the value of such services as expenses associated with the product manufactured for Seller (and either capitalize or deduct such amounts in accordance with its accounting practices) and also treat such amounts as deferred contingent payments for the transfer of the Acquired Assets on the Closing Date. In the event that certain of the Acquired Assets are returned to Seller under the provisions set forth in Section 6.1, the Parties shall treat such return of the Acquired Assets as a sale of such assets from Buyer to Seller in accordance with the terms of such provision (and, for the avoidance of doubt, the Parties do not intend to and shall not treat such return as a rescission of the transaction occurring on the Closing Date nor treat the transactions contemplated by this Agreement as any form of mere lease of the Acquired Assets to Buyer).

(f) Buyer will exercise control over the handling, disposition and settlement of any inquiry, examination or proceeding by a Tax Authority with respect to the Business or the Acquired Assets; provided, however, that if such proceeding is with respect to the Intended Tax Treatment or could result in a determination with respect to Taxes due or payable by Seller or give rise to an indemnification obligation on the part of Seller, Seller may elect to control the handling of such proceeding at its sole expense and Buyer shall be allowed to participate in such proceeding at its sole expense. Buyer and Seller will notify each other in writing promptly upon learning of any such inquiry, examination or proceeding. Buyer and Seller will cooperate with each other as either may reasonably request, in any such inquiry, examination or proceeding. To the extent of any overlap between this Section 6.15(e) and Section 7.6(b), this Section 6.15(e) shall govern. For

the avoidance of doubt, notwithstanding the foregoing, each Party will be responsible for the handling, disposition and settlement of any inquiry, proceeding or examination against it with respect to its own federal, state or local income, franchise, net or gross receipts, estimated, alternative minimum, add-on and similar Taxes.

(g) Neither Seller nor Buyer will agree to settle any Liability related to Taxes or compromise any claim with respect to Taxes, which settlement or compromise could reasonably be expected to affect the Liability for Taxes hereunder (or right to Tax Benefit) of the other Party, without the other Party’s prior written consent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(h) Seller and Buyer will each be obligated to pay one half of any amounts that are required to be paid in respect of any transfer, sales, use, recording, value-added or similar Taxes (including any registration and/or stamp Taxes, levies and duties) (“Transfer Taxes”) that are imposed by reason of the sale, assignment, transfer and delivery of the Acquired Assets, and Buyer will timely file all Tax Returns required to be filed in connection with Transfer Taxes. Buyer and Seller will cooperate in timely filing all Tax Returns required to be filed in connection with the payment of Transfer Taxes, in obtaining all available exemptions from such Taxes, and in timely providing one another resale certificates and any other documentation necessary to satisfy any such exemptions.

6.16 Assignability and Consents.

(a) As promptly as practicable after the date hereof, Seller will give all required notices to any third parties and will use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all consents, approvals and other authorizations set forth or required to be set forth on Section 3.3 of the Disclosure Schedules.

(b) Notwithstanding any other provisions in this Agreement to the contrary, this Agreement shall not constitute an agreement to assign any Contract or Lease if an attempted assignment thereof, without notice as required under such Contract or Lease to, or without the consent of, another party thereto or any Governmental Authority, would constitute a breach or violation of any such Contract or Lease. Seller shall, at its expense, use commercially reasonable efforts and Buyer shall, at Seller’s reasonable expense, use commercially reasonable efforts to assist Seller in providing all notices required under any Contract or Lease and obtaining all consents, novations and waivers and to resolve all impracticalities of assignments, novations or transfers necessary to convey any Contract or Lease to Buyer at the earliest practicable date after the Closing.

(c) In the case of the Acquired Contracts, if such consents, novations or waivers are not obtained or notices are not provided in accordance with the terms thereof on or prior to the Closing Date, or if an attempted assignment would be ineffective, until such consent, novation or waiver is obtained, or such notice has been provided in accordance with the terms thereof, Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to (i) provide to Buyer the benefits of each such Acquired Contract and Lease; (ii) cooperate in any reasonable and lawful arrangement designed to provide such benefits to Buyer and (iii) enforce, at the request and expense of Buyer and for the

account of Buyer, any rights of Seller arising from any such Acquired Contract or Lease; and Seller will promptly pay to Buyer when all monies are received by Seller under such Acquired Contract or Lease. To the extent Buyer is provided the benefit of any such Acquired Contract or Lease, Buyer will perform or discharge, on behalf of Seller, Seller’s obligations and liabilities under each such Acquired Contract and Lease in accordance with the provisions thereof except for any obligations and liabilities under any such Contract or Lease that constitute a Retained Liability. Once a necessary consent, novation or waiver is obtained, or the necessary notice has been waived by or provided, in accordance with the terms of such Acquired Contract or Lease, to the other party to such Acquired Contract or Lease, the applicable Acquired Contract will be deemed to have been automatically transferred to Buyer on the terms set forth in this Agreement with respect to the other Acquired Contracts transferred and assumed at the Closing, and consistent with the foregoing, the obligations pursuant to the applicable Acquired Contract will be deemed to be Assumed Liabilities, and the rights pursuant to the applicable Acquired Contract will be deemed to be Acquired Assets.

6.17 Exclusivity. From the date hereof through the Closing, Seller shall, and shall cause its Controlled Affiliates and Seller’s officers, directors, employees, and advisors (including investment bankers and attorneys) and other representatives (collectively, “Representatives”) to, (a) deal with Buyer and its Representatives on an exclusive basis with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and (b) refrain, directly and indirectly, from encouraging, soliciting, causing or initiating any new or existing inquiries or continuing or engaging in any discussions or negotiations with any other Person concerning an acquisition of the Business (whether through an asset sale, stock sale, merger or otherwise) (an “Acquisition Proposal”); provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prohibit (a) the board of directors of Seller from taking any action that the directors collectively are obligated to take in the performance of their fiduciary duties or as required by applicable law, and (b) the sale of the products and services of the Business in the ordinary course. From the date hereof through the Closing, Seller shall promptly (x) advise Buyer if any offer or other contact is received by, or any discussions are sought with, any of Seller or any of its Representatives in respect of any Acquisition Proposal, and shall, in any such notice to Buyer, indicate the Person making such offer or other contact and the material terms and conditions thereof (unless such disclosure would otherwise be prohibited by a non-disclosure agreement, dated on or prior to the date hereof, to which Seller is bound), and (y) inform the contacting party that an exclusivity agreement is in effect and that no discussions regarding such an Acquisition Proposal can occur.

6.18 Payment of Accounts Payable; Collection of Accounts Receivable. Seller shall pay in full all Accounts Payable relating to the Business in accordance with the terms and conditions thereof. Seller shall not pursue the collection of Accounts Receivable in any manner that is (a) inconsistent with the terms thereof or (b) unreasonable under the circumstances.

6.19 Public Disclosure. Buyer and Seller shall consult with each other and mutually agree upon any press release or public announcement pertaining to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, and neither Party shall issue any such press release or make any such public announcement prior to such consultation and agreement. Notwithstanding the

foregoing, (a) a Party may make any public disclosure it believes in good faith may be required by Law or the rules or regulations of any United States securities exchange on which it or its direct or indirect parent’s securities are listed, in which case the Party required to make the release or announcement shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to allow the other Party reasonable time to comment on such release or announcement in advance of such issuance, (b) Buyer and Seller shall agree on the content of the first announcement made to the employees of the Business regarding the execution of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby and (c) following the Closing, a Party may make a public disclosure of the fact that the transactions contemplated hereunder have closed and the identities of the Parties hereto.

6.20 Transition of Marks. As promptly as reasonably practicable following the Closing, but in no event later than [***] after the Closing, Buyer shall stop using in the conduct of the Business any Marks owned by Seller that Seller had previously used in the conduct of the Business. During such period, Seller hereby grants to Buyer a nonexclusive, royalty-free license to use Seller Marks in the conduct of the Business in substantially the same manner used by Seller with respect to the Business as of the Closing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller may (a) use Seller Marks on products sold to Seller or as otherwise required or permitted under the Manufacturing Services Agreement or any other agreement between the Parties; (b) use Seller Marks in a factually accurate, nominative manner to describe the relationship between the Parties and the history of the Facility; (c) retain copies of any books, records and other materials that, as of the Closing, contain or display Seller Marks; (d) use Seller Marks to comply with applicable Laws or for litigation, regulatory or corporate filings and documents filed by Buyer with any Governmental Authority; and (e) retain Seller Marks on signage in the Facility and on Equipment or other durable goods where such Marks are not generally visible to the public.

6.21 Confidentiality Agreement. Between the date hereof and the Closing Date, the terms of the Non-Disclosure Agreement, dated as of March 17, 2021 by and between Lonza Houston, Inc., an affiliate of Buyer, and Seller (the “Confidentiality Agreement”), are hereby incorporated herein by reference and the Parties will hold, and will cause their respective employees, Affiliates, officers, directors, contractors, agents, advisors or consultants to hold, any Confidential Information (as defined in the Confidentiality Agreement) confidential in accordance with the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement, as if each of the Parties was party thereto. Upon the occurrence of the Closing, the Confidentiality Agreement shall automatically terminate without any further action by any of the parties thereto and shall be of no further force or effect.

7.2 Indemnification by Seller. Subject to the provisions of this ARTICLE VII, from and after the Closing, Seller shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Buyer, its Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees, attorneys, accountants, representatives and agents (the “Buyer Indemnified Parties”) for, from and against all Losses that any Buyer Indemnified Party may suffer, sustain or incur and that result from, arise out of, relate to, or are caused by as a result of any of the following:

(a) any breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty of Seller (disregarding all materiality and Material Adverse Effect qualifications for purposes of calculating the applicable Losses) contained in this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements to which Seller is a party (in each case, excluding the Transition Services Agreement, the remedies for breach of which shall be expressly and exclusively set forth therein), other than the Seller Fundamental Representations;

7.3 Indemnification by Buyer. Subject to the provisions of this ARTICLE VII, from and after the Closing, Buyer shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Seller, its Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees, attorneys, accountants, representatives and agents (the “Seller Indemnified Parties”) for, from and against all Losses that any Seller Indemnified Party may suffer, sustain or incur and that result from, arise out of, relate to, or are caused by any of the following:

(a) any breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty of Buyer contained in this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements to which Buyer is a party (in each case, excluding the Transition Services Agreement, the remedies for breach of which shall be expressly and exclusively set forth therein);

(f) except that, in each case ((a) to (e)), to the extent that Seller has an indemnification obligation to indemnify any Buyer Indemnified Parties pursuant to Section 7.2.

7.4 Limits on Indemnification. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in the absence of a showing of fraud, willful misconduct or bad faith, the indemnification obligations of each Party hereunder shall be subject to the following limitations:

(a) Neither the Buyer Indemnified Parties nor the Seller Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to Losses claimed under Section 7.2(a) or Section 7.3(a), as applicable, unless (i) any individual Loss or group or series of related Losses exceed [***] (any such Loss or group or series of related Losses that do not exceed [***], the “De Minimis Losses”), and (ii) the aggregate amount of Losses (which shall include for such purposes De Minimis Losses) incurred by the Buyer Indemnified Parties or Seller Indemnified Parties, as applicable, exceeds [***] (the “Basket”), in which event the Buyer Indemnified Parties or Seller Indemnified Parties, as applicable, shall be entitled, subject to the other limitations in ARTICLE VII, to receive indemnification for all Losses (other than De Minimis Losses) in excess of the Basket;

(b) The aggregate amount of Losses for which Seller shall be required to indemnify the Buyer Indemnified Parties pursuant to Section 7.2(a) shall not exceed [***] (the “Cap”) and the aggregate amount of Losses for which Seller shall be required to indemnify the Buyer Indemnified Parties pursuant to Section 7.2 shall not exceed [***].

(c) The aggregate amount of Losses for which Buyer shall be required to indemnify the Seller Indemnified Parties pursuant to Section 7.4(a) shall not exceed the Cap.

7.5 Procedures for Indemnification.

(a) No Party shall be liable for any claim for indemnification under this ARTICLE VII unless written notice of a claim for indemnification is delivered by the Party seeking indemnification (the “Indemnified Party”) to the Party from whom indemnification is sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) prior to the expiration of any applicable survival period set forth in Section 7.1 (in which event the claim shall survive until finally and fully resolved). If any third party notifies the Indemnified Party with respect to any matter which may give rise to a claim for

indemnification (a “Third Party Claim”) against the Indemnifying Party under this ARTICLE VII, then the Indemnified Party shall notify the Indemnifying Party reasonably promptly thereof in writing; provided that no delay on the part of the Indemnified Party in notifying the Indemnifying Party shall relieve the Indemnifying Party from any obligation hereunder except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is actually and materially prejudiced thereby. All notices given pursuant to this Section 7.5(a) shall describe with reasonable specificity the nature of the claim, the amount of the claim (to the extent then known) and the basis of the Indemnified Party’s claim for indemnification.

(b) Following receipt of notice in accordance with Section 7.5(a) (other than a notice of a Third Party Claim against the Indemnified Party, in which case Section 7.5(c) below shall apply), the Indemnifying Party shall have [***] from the date it receives such notice (the “Dispute Period”) to make such investigation of the claim as the Indemnifying Party deems necessary or desirable. For purposes of such investigation, the Indemnified Party shall make available to the Indemnifying Party all the material information related to such claim relied upon by or in possession or control of, the Indemnified Party; provided that such Indemnified Party shall not be required to violate any order, judgment, injunction, award or decree of any Governmental Authority or any applicable Law to which it is subject or to waive any attorney-client privilege or work product doctrine which any of them may possess or that may otherwise apply to such information. If the Indemnifying Party disagrees with the validity or amount of all or a portion of such claim made by the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party shall deliver to the Indemnified Party written notice thereof (the “Dispute Notice”) prior to the expiration of the Dispute Period. If no Dispute Notice is received by the Indemnified Party within the Dispute Period or the Indemnifying Party provides notice that it does not have a dispute with respect to such claim, such claim shall be deemed approved and consented to by the Indemnifying Party (such claim, an “Approved Indemnification Claim”). If a Dispute Notice is received by the Indemnified Party within the Dispute Period and the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party do not agree to the validity and/or amount of such disputed claim, no payment shall be made until such disputed claim is resolved, whether by adjudication of such matter, agreement between the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party, or otherwise (and upon any such resolution, such claim shall be deemed to be an Approved Indemnification Claim). Each Approved Indemnification Claim shall be paid by Seller or Buyer, as applicable, no later than [***] after the date on which the subject claim became an Approved Indemnification Claim, in each case by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account designated in writing by the party entitled to such payment.

(c) After the Indemnified Party has given notice of a Third Party Claim to the Indemnifying Party pursuant to Section 7.5(a), the Indemnifying Party may, at its election, undertake and conduct the defense of such Third Party Claim; provided that the Indemnifying Party fully acknowledges in writing its indemnification obligations to the Indemnified Party. In such case, the Indemnified Party may continue to participate in the defense of such Third Party Claim; provided, however, that following the Indemnifying Party’s assumption of the defense of such Third Party Claim, all legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Party shall be borne by the Indemnified Party unless the Indemnified Party reasonably concludes that the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party have conflicting interests or different defenses available with respect to such legal proceeding, in which case the Indemnified Party shall be

indemnified for the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to the Indemnified Party (including local counsel). If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall not settle or consent to judgment with respect to such Third Party Claim without the written consent of the Indemnified Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to assume the administration and defense of any Third Party Claim that involves any customer or supplier of Buyer or the Business or if: (i) the Indemnifying Party has failed to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim within ten (10) days of the Indemnified Party’s delivery of notice of such Third Party Claim to the Indemnifying Party, (ii) such Third Party Claim involves criminal or quasi-criminal allegations, or (iii) the Third Party Claim includes a claim for injunctive relief. The Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall render to each other such assistance as may reasonably be required of each other in order to ensure proper and adequate defense of any Third Party Claim subject to this Section 7.5. To the extent that the Indemnified Party or the Indemnifying Party does not participate in the defense of a particular Third Party Claim, the Party so proceeding with such Third Party Claim shall keep the other Party informed of all material developments and events relating to such Third Party Claim. No Indemnified Party shall settle or consent to judgment with respect to any Third Party Claim for which the Indemnifying Party has provided a written acknowledgement of its indemnification obligations to the Indemnified Party without the written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. In the event that the Indemnifying Party has consented to any settlement or consented to any judgment and except as otherwise provided in such settlement or judgment, such Indemnifying Party shall not have any power or authority to object to any claim by any Indemnified Party under this ARTICLE VII for indemnity in the amount of such settlement or judgment.

7.6 Determination of Loss Amount.

(a) If an indemnifiable matter is identified and noticed prior to the end of any applicable period set forth in Section 7.1, all Losses incurred or paid in connection with such matter shall remain subject to indemnification hereunder in accordance with the terms of (and subject to the limitations set forth in) this ARTICLE VII.

(b) The amount of any Loss subject to indemnification under Section 7.2 or Section 7.3 shall be reduced by the amount of any Tax Benefit actually realized by the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates on account of such Loss. If the Indemnified Party receives a Tax Benefit after the applicable indemnification payment is made by the Indemnifying Party to it, the Indemnified Party shall promptly pay to the Indemnifying Party the amount of such Tax Benefit at such time or times as and to the extent that such Tax Benefit is actually realized by the Indemnified Party, but not in excess of the indemnification amount previously so paid by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party in respect of the applicable indemnified Losses. For purposes hereof, “Tax Benefit” shall mean any Tax benefit (net of costs and expenses of collection) actually realized by the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates in the form of a cash refund of Taxes paid to, or a reduction in the amount of cash Taxes which otherwise would have been paid by, the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates, in each case prior to the end of the year in which the indemnity payment was made and arising from the incurrence or payment of the applicable

indemnified Losses. In computing the amount of any such Tax Benefit, the Indemnified Party shall be deemed to recognize all other items of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit before recognizing any item arising from the receipt of any indemnity payment hereunder or the incurrence or payment of, or the circumstances giving rise to, any indemnified Loss.

(c) Except as provided in Section 7.6(d), the amount of any Loss subject to indemnification under Section 7.2 or Section 7.3 shall be reduced by any insurance proceeds (indemnity payments, contribution payments or other similar payments (in each case, net of costs and expenses of enforcement and collection, deductibles and retro-premium adjustments, if applicable) actually received by the Indemnified Party from any third party with respect to such Loss. In the event the Indemnified Party receives any insurance proceeds, indemnity payment, contribution payment or other similar payment with respect to any Loss after the applicable indemnification payment is made by the Indemnifying Party to it, then the Indemnified Party shall promptly pay to the Indemnifying Party the amount of such recovery as provided herein, but not in excess of the indemnification amount previously so paid by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party in respect of the applicable indemnified Losses.

(d) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, none of the Buyer Indemnified Parties (i) shall have any obligation to first submit a claim against, seek to collect or to actually collect upon any insurance policy or other collateral source as a precondition to making a claim for indemnification hereunder or (ii) shall have any obligation to litigate or arbitrate with any insurer or other collateral source.

(e) To the extent required under applicable Law and subject to the other terms of this ARTICLE VII, each Indemnified Party shall use those efforts required by applicable Law to mitigate all Losses it incurs that are indemnifiable hereunder.

7.7 Tax Treatment. Any payment under ARTICLE VII of this Agreement shall be treated by the parties for federal, state, local and foreign income Tax purposes as an adjustment to the value of the Consideration unless otherwise required by Law.

7.8 Election of Claims. In the event that any Person alleges that they are entitled to indemnification hereunder, and that Person’s claim is covered under more than one provision of this Agreement, such Person shall be entitled to elect the provision or provisions under which it may bring a claim for indemnification.

7.9 Remedies Exclusive. Except (a) for remedies that cannot be waived as a matter of Law, (b) for specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies, or (c) in respect of claims based on fraud, willful misconduct or bad faith, from and after the Closing, the indemnification provisions of this ARTICLE VII shall be the sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any and all claims arising under this Agreement.

ARTICLE VIII
TERMINATION

8.1 Termination. This Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby may be terminated at any time prior to the Closing as follows:

(a) By mutual written consent of Seller and Buyer;

9.14 Specific Performance.

(a) Each of the Parties acknowledges and agrees that the other Party would be damaged irreparably in the event any of the provisions of this Agreement are not performed in accordance with their specific terms or otherwise are breached. Accordingly, each Party agrees that the other Party shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of the provisions of this Agreement and to enforce specifically this Agreement and the terms and provisions hereof in any action instituted in any court of the United States or any state thereof having jurisdiction over the Parties and the matter, in addition to any other remedy to which they may be entitled, at law or in equity.

(b) EACH OF BUYER, SELLER AND EACH STOCKHOLDER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) FOR EQUITTABLE RELIEF BROUGHT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THIS SECTION 9.14.

SERVICES

2.1. Schedules and Precedence. This Agreement governs the provision of Services described in the mutually-agreed schedules attached to and made a part of this Agreement (each individual schedule, a “Transition Service Schedule” and collectively the “Transition Service Schedules”). Such Transition Service Schedules may be amended in writing from time to time by mutual agreement of the Parties. If there is any inconsistency between the terms of any Transition Service Schedule and the terms of this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall govern. If there is any inconsistency between the terms of this Agreement and the Asset Purchase Agreement or the License Agreement, the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement or the License Agreement shall govern.

2.2. Performance of Services. Service Provider will use commercially reasonable efforts to perform the Services set forth in the Transition Service Schedules during the relevant Service Period for each such Service contained in the Transition Service Schedule therefor. Nothing in this Agreement or any Transition Services Schedule shall be deemed as a provision of legal services by Service Provider to Service Recipient or any of Service Recipient Personnel. Service Provider agrees and acknowledges that the Services are being provided in exchange for the Consideration and, except as specifically set forth on Annex 1, no additional fees or charges shall be owed to Service Provider in exchange therefore.

2.3. Information. Each Transition Service Schedule sets forth, among other things:

2.3.1. a description of the Services to be provided, and, for the purposes of such description, the technical terms and description used to describe the Services shall have the meaning customarily assigned to such terms and descriptions within the relevant technical/organizational function, and such terms and descriptions shall be interpreted, including as to the scope of the Services and the level of effort required from Service Provider in respect of performance of such Services, in light of any similar services which were customarily provided or activities that were customarily undertaken by Service Provider or its Affiliates, at Service Provider’s facilities located at [***] (the “Facilities”) or otherwise prior to the Closing Date;

2.3.2. the term during which each Service will be provided (the “Service Period”); and

2.3.3. any other terms applicable to such Service.

2.4. Service Levels. Service Provider will perform the Services in a manner consistent with the terms and conditions contained herein. In addition, in performing the Services, Service Provider will use a degree of care and diligence that is not materially less than the care and diligence exercised by Service Provider and its Affiliates with respect to performing similar services during the [***] period preceding the Effective Date, and will deliver the Services in a manner consistent with Service Provider’s and its Affiliates’ practices during the [***] period preceding the Effective Date. Without limiting the foregoing, during the Term, with respect to any books and records (including but not limited to master data information files to be transferred to Service Recipient hereunder), Service Provider will ensure that it shall have maintained and shall continue to maintain such books and records in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice, for so long as is consistent with Service Provider’s document retention policy, and, with respect to any books and records that are included in the Acquired Assets, until they have been transferred and/or delivered in such form to Service Recipient or its Representatives hereunder or under the Asset Purchase Agreement.

2.4.1. Service Provider and Service Recipient shall cooperate with one another in connection with the provision of Services hereunder; provided, however, that such cooperation shall not unreasonably disrupt the normal operations of the Parties and their respective Affiliates.

2.4.2. Each Party shall select in writing a representative to act as the primary contact with respect to the provision of the Services and the resolution of disputes under this Agreement (each, for any Party, a “Transition Coordinator”). The initial Transition Coordinators shall be James Thornton for Service Provider and Stacie Santin for Service Recipient. Additionally, a Transition Coordinator may, by written notice to the other Transition Coordinator, designate in writing one or more individuals as individual coordinators for certain classes or types of Services (such designated individual, a “Service Coordinator”). No Transition Coordinator or Service

Coordinator shall have authority to amend this Agreement in any respect. Service Recipient and Service Provider shall advise each other promptly in a written notice of any change in their respective Transition Coordinators or Service Coordinators, as the case may be, setting forth the name of the replacement.

2.4.3. The Transition Coordinators shall hold review meetings by telephone, videoconference or in person, as mutually agreed upon, at least once monthly during the Term (unless mutually agreed in writing otherwise) to discuss issues relating to the provision of the Services (“Review Meetings”). In the Review Meetings, the Transition Coordinators may discuss any problems identified relating to the provision of Services to resolve such problems and, to the extent changes are agreed upon, the implementation of such changes.

2.4.4. In the event of any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or the breach, termination or validity hereof, including any claim by a Party hereto that the other party has breached the terms hereof (each, a “Dispute”), the Transition Coordinators shall meet (by telephone, videoconference or in person) no later than [***] after receipt of written notice by either party of a request for resolution of a Dispute. The Transition Coordinators shall enter into negotiations aimed at resolving any such Dispute. In the event that the Transition Coordinators are unable to resolve any Dispute within [***] after such matter is first discussed by the Transition Coordinators, then each Party shall have the right within [***] after the last day of such [***] period to deliver written notice (“Unresolved Matters Notice”) of such unresolved Dispute in any manner permitted for delivery of a notice hereunder and to the other Party’s Transition Coordinator. For the [***] period after delivery of the Unresolved Matters Notice (the “Resolution Period”), the Key Negotiators of each Party shall work in good faith to resolve such unresolved Dispute. “Key Negotiators” means, for Service Recipient, Herve Berdou, and for Service Provider, Richard Brudnick. If the Key Negotiators fail to resolve any Dispute within the Resolution Period, such matter will be resolved in accordance with Section 10.9.

2.5. Third Party Providers. Service Provider shall have the right to designate a qualified Third Party provider (“Third Party Provider”) to provide the applicable Services with the written consent of Service Recipient, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided that (a) such Third Party Provider is qualified and capable to provide such Services and (b) no such consent shall be required in the event that any such Services are being provided by a Third Party Provider as of the Effective Date and the identity of such Third Party Provider has been disclosed to Service Recipient. To the extent Service Provider engages any such Third Party Provider, the liability of Service Provider to Service Recipient in respect of the applicable Service shall be limited to the rights and remedies that Service Provider can successfully claim under the relevant

subcontracting agreement against the Third Party Provider (and Service Provider shall use commercially reasonable efforts to enforce such rights).

2.6. Additional Resources. Without limiting Service Provider’s or Service Recipient’s obligations hereunder, except as provided in a Transition Service Schedule, in providing the Services, neither Service Provider nor any Third Party Provider will be obligated to:

2.6.1. hire any additional employees;

2.6.2. maintain the employment of any specific employee, consultant or independent contractor;

2.6.3. purchase, lease or license any additional equipment or software; or

2.6.4. pay any costs related to the transfer or conversion of Service Recipient’s data for use by Service Recipient.

2.7. Third-Party Consents. If any consent, approval, permit, license or waiver from any Third Party Provider (collectively, the “Third Party Authorizations”) is required in connection with the provision of a given Service, Service Provider shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such Third Party Authorizations. In the event Service Provider fails to obtain a Third Party Authorization, Service Provider shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to work with Service Recipient to (a) minimize any adverse impact on the provision of the Service(s) that require such Third Party Authorization, (b) agree in good faith to alternative means of continuing the provision of such Service(s) for the duration of the applicable Service Period, and (c) minimize any costs relating to such alternative(s). Service Provider shall manage exclusively its relationship with its Third Party Provider suppliers and vendors and neither Service Recipient nor any of its Affiliates shall discuss the provision of any of the Services with such Third Party Provider suppliers or vendors of Service Provider; provided, however, that nothing herein shall restrict Service Recipient from directly entering into negotiations with such Third Party Provider suppliers or vendors for the provision of any services to Service Recipient or any of its Affiliates.

2.8. Use of Services by the Service Recipient. The Service Recipient shall only use the Services (a) for the Business, (b) in accordance with applicable Law, and (c) in a manner which does not violate any Third Party rights.

2.9. Operational Changes. During the Term, Service Provider may not, without the advance written consent of Service Recipient (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), change operational aspects of the Services or the processes, software, hardware or other information technology systems used by, or on behalf of, it or its Affiliates or subcontractors to provide the Services, except where (a) obtaining such advance consent would result in the Services not being provided at the agreed service levels or otherwise in accordance with this Agreement, or (b) such change would not be reasonably expected to result in any adverse effect on the Services provided hereunder, provided that Service Provider shall provide Service Recipient with a prior written notice of such change, which written notice shall include a description of the reason Service

Provider is implementing such change, as promptly as practicable after Service Provider determines such changes are necessary acting reasonably and in good faith.

2.10. Migration; Tenders. The Parties acknowledge that the Services are transitional in nature and are furnished exclusively for the purposes of facilitating the transactions contemplated by the Asset Purchase Agreement and to allow Service Recipient a period to replace the Services so that it can conduct the Business on a stand-alone basis. Service Recipient acknowledges that Service Provider is not in the business of offering or selling services such as the Services on a commercial arm’s-length basis to independent Third Parties, and that this Agreement is only required for specific business circumstances as described in the Recitals above. The provisions of this Agreement shall be interpreted in that context and Service Recipient will use commercially reasonable efforts to replace the Services at its own cost and expense as soon as practicable after the Closing Date

2.11. Risk of Loss. Notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement or any Transition Services Schedule, to the extent any Service requires the Service Provider to warehouse, store, deliver, or otherwise handle inventory (the “Transitional Inventory”), Service Recipient shall bear all risk of loss, casualty, theft, or damage to such Transitional Inventory regardless of the cause thereof other than where the loss, casualty, theft, or damage arises from Service Provider’s gross negligence (which Service Provider shall be and remain responsible for); provided that without limitation of the foregoing, Service Provider shall (a) use due care in its handling, storage, transportation and use of all Transitional Inventory, (b) use reasonable efforts to provide adequate security at all locations where Transitional Inventory is stored, (c) send prompt notice to Service Recipient of any loss, casualty, theft, or damage to such Transitional Inventory, and (d) use reasonable efforts to minimize further loss, casualty, theft, or damage to such Transitional Inventory. Title to all such Transitional Inventory shall be retained by Service Provider until such time as the applicable Transitional Inventory is to be sold by Service Provider to the Service Recipient in accordance with the Transition Services Schedule. Service Provider shall not create or impose any liens or other encumbrances on such Transitional Inventory sold to the Service Recipient.

2.12. Regulatory Matters. Service Provider will provide, and will ensure that its Affiliates and Third Party Providers provide, the Services in a manner that is in all material respects in compliance with all applicable federal, state, foreign, provincial or local law, common law, statute, ordinance, rule, regulation, code, policy or governmental order, and all judicial interpretations thereof.

ARTICLE 3

This Agreement will commence on the Effective Date and remain in effect until the last day that any Service Period in any Transition Service Schedule remains in effect, but shall in no event be in effect after December 31, 2022 (unless extended by mutual agreement of the Parties acting reasonably and in good faith, if Service Recipient shall so request) unless earlier terminated under this ARTICLE 3 (the “Term”), provided that the Parties will use commercially

reasonable efforts to complete all Services as promptly as practicable after the Effective Date. With respect to each Service, such Service will begin upon the applicable start date set forth in the Transition Services Schedule (or the Effective Date if no start date is identified) and will continue until the end date for such Services set forth in the Transition Services Schedule, or, if earlier, the end of the Term.

3.2.3. Any provision which by its nature or express terms should survive, including this Section 3.2.3, Section 3.2.4, ARTICLE 5, ARTICLE 8, and ARTICLE 10, will survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement.

ARTICLE 5

10.3.2. Duties of Confidentiality and Non-Use. During the Term, and for a period of [***] after the termination or expiration of this Agreement, each Party hereto will maintain in confidence all Confidential Information disclosed to it by the other Party.

To the extent that disclosure is necessary to perform this Agreement, the receiving Party shall obtain prior agreement from its Representatives to whom disclosure is to be made to hold in confidence and not make use of such information for any purpose other than those permitted by this Agreement. Each Party shall use at least the same standard of care as it uses to protect its own Confidential Information to ensure that such Representatives do not disclose or make any unauthorized use of such Confidential Information.

Confidential Information shall not include any information which: (a) was already known to the receiving Party, other than under an obligation of confidentiality, at the time of disclosure by the other Party, (b) was generally available to the public or otherwise part of the public domain at the time of its disclosure to

10.3.3. Terms of this Agreement. The Parties agree not to disclose any terms or conditions of this Agreement to any Third Party without the prior consent of the other Party, except as required by applicable Laws.

WHEREAS, Sublandlord desires to sublease to Subtenant and Subtenant desires to sublease from Sublandlord the Premises as shown on the diagram attached as Exhibit A (the “Subleased Premises”), on the terms and conditions set forth in this Sublease. A true and correct copy of the Master Lease is attached hereto as Exhibit B.

NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto, for themselves, their successors and assigns, mutually covenant and agree as follows:

For purposes of this Sublease, “Sublease Year” shall mean each successive twelve (12) month period during the Term, with the first such Sublease Year commencing on the Term Commencement Date and each successive Sublease Year commencing on the next succeeding anniversary of the Term Commencement Date; provided, however, (i) the final Sublease Year shall expire on the Termination Date, and (ii) if the Term Commencement

i. All amounts other than Fixed Annual Rent that are due to Sublandlord from Subtenant under this Sublease are hereinafter referred to collectively as “Additional Rent,” and Fixed Annual Rent and Additional Rent may be referred to collectively as “Rent.”

ii. During the Term, Subtenant shall pay to Sublandlord, as Additional Rent in the manner and at the same time as set forth in Section 5(a) above with respect to Fixed Annual Rent, Subtenant’s Share (as hereinafter defined) of (i) Taxes, and (ii) Operating Costs, all based upon the amounts of Taxes and Operating Costs, as applicable, billed to Sublandlord pursuant to Section 5 of the Master Lease. As used herein, the term “Subtenant’s Share” shall mean [***]. Sublandlord shall, within [***] after Sublandlord receives any corresponding notices or statements from Master Landlord of the estimated monthly payments of Additional Rent due under Section 5 of the Master Lease for the Premises (if Master Landlord delivers the same to Sublandlord and not to Subtenant), provide to Subtenant (with such notices or statements being entitled to be delivered by Email to: _____________________) Master Landlord’s good faith estimate of the Additional Rent payable from Subtenant under this Section 5(b) for any calendar year (or part thereof) during the Term of this Sublease that such amounts are due and Subtenant shall pay to Sublandlord, at the times and in the manner set forth in Section 5(a) above with respect to Fixed Annual Rent, an amount equal to 1/12th of such estimated Additional Rent due for such calendar year or part thereof. Within [***] following receipt by Sublandlord of Master Landlord’s annual reconciliation statement of Taxes or Operating Costs, as applicable, if such reconciliation statement is delivered to Sublandlord and not to Subtenant, Sublandlord will send to Subtenant a statement together with relevant, non-confidential documentation (with such statements and information being entitled to be delivered by Email to the same address listed in the preceding sentence), establishing the Subtenant’s actual Tax payment or Operating Cost payment, as applicable, for such year. If Subtenant has paid more in estimated Additional Rent under this Section than the actual amount due from Subtenant for the applicable year, Sublandlord shall credit such excess against subsequent obligations of Subtenant for Additional Rent (or to refund such excess to Subtenant within [***] if the Term of this Sublease has ended and Subtenant has no further obligation to Sublandlord). If Subtenant has paid less than the actual Additional Rent due under this Section 5(b), Subtenant shall pay any deficiency to Sublandlord within [***] following receipt of the reconciliation documentation from Sublandlord.

(d) Additional Charges. Subtenant shall also be responsible for its own additional utilities, including telephone, facsimile transmitter, internet access, photocopier, and its other business expenses. In addition, if Subtenant shall procure any additional services from Master Landlord, including without limitation after-hours HVAC, or if additional rent or other sums are incurred for Subtenant’s sole benefit, including, without limitation, extra janitorial services, repairs and replacements to the Subleased Premises caused or permitted by Subtenant, Subtenant shall make such payment to Sublandlord within [***] after Subtenant’s receipt of an invoice. Any rent or other sums payable by Subtenant to Sublandlord under this Section 5(d) shall constitute and be due as “Rent.”

(e) Abatement of Rent Under the Master Lease. Notwithstanding anything in this Sublease to the contrary, if the rent due under the Master Lease with respect to the Subleased Premises is abated in whole or in part during the Term pursuant to the terms of Section 10.7 or Section 15 of the Master Lease, then the Fixed Annual Rent and Additional Rent due under this Sublease shall abate for the same period and to the same extent as the rent for the Premises is abated pursuant to such Section 10.7 or Section 15 of the Master Lease, as applicable.

6. Insurance. Subtenant shall obtain and maintain all insurance types and coverage as specified in the Master Lease to be obtained and maintained by Sublandlord, as tenant, in amounts not less than those specified in the Master Lease. All such policies of insurance shall name Master Landlord and Sublandlord as additional insureds thereunder. Subtenant’s insurance shall be primary over Master Landlord’s and Sublandlord’s insurance.

7. Indemnification. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Sublease or the Master Lease to the contrary, but subject to the waiver of subrogation provided in Section 14.5 of the Master Lease, Subtenant will save Master Landlord and Sublandlord harmless, and will exonerate and indemnify Master Landlord and Sublandlord, from and against any and all claims, liabilities or penalties asserted by or on behalf of any person, firm, corporation or public authority:

(a) On account of or based upon any injury to person, or loss of or damage to property sustained or occurring on the Subleased Premises on account of or based upon the act, omission, fault, negligence or misconduct of any person whomsoever (other than Master Landlord and Sublandlord or their respective agents, contractors or employees);

(b) On account of or based upon any injury to person or loss of or damage to property, sustained or occurring elsewhere (other than on the Subleased Premises) in or about the Building (and, in particular, without limiting the generality of the foregoing on or about the elevators, stairways, public corridors, sidewalks, concourses, arcades, malls, galleries, vehicular tunnels, approaches, areaways, roof, or other appurtenances and facilities used in connection with the Building or the Subleased Premises) arising out of the negligence or willful misconduct of

Subtenant or any of its agents, contractors, employees, or invitees (collectively, the “Subtenant Parties”);

(c) On account of or based upon (including monies due on account of) any work or thing whatsoever done (other than by Master Landlord or Sublandlord or their respective contractors, agents or employees of either) on the Subleased Premises during the term of this Sublease; and

(d) On account of or resulting from the failure of Subtenant to perform and discharge any of its covenants and obligations under this Sublease, beyond any applicable notice and cure periods.

If either of the Master Landlord or the Sublandlord shall, without fault on its part, be made a party of any litigation commenced by or against the Subtenant related to this Sublease or the Premises, then the Subtenant shall protect, indemnify and hold the Master Landlord or the Sublandlord harmless and shall pay all costs, expenses and reasonable legal fees incurred or paid by the Master Landlord or the Sublandlord in connection with such litigation. The Subtenant shall also pay all costs, expenses and reasonable legal fees (on a solicitor and his client basis) that may be incurred or paid by the Master Landlord or the Sublandlord in enforcing the terms, covenants and conditions in this Sublease if successful and unless a court shall decide otherwise.

Except solely as the result of a breach or default of Sublandlord or any of Sublandlord’s agents, employees or contractors, Subtenant shall neither do nor permit anything to be done which would cause a default under the Master Lease, or termination or forfeiture by reason of any right of termination or forfeiture, reserved or vested in the Master Landlord under the Master Lease, and Subtenant shall indemnify and hold Sublandlord harmless from and against all claims of any kind whatsoever by reason of breach or default on the part of Subtenant, or termination or forfeiture which is the consequence of any such breach or default.

Sublandlord shall not be deemed to have made any representation made by Master Landlord in any of the incorporated provisions. Sublandlord shall indemnify and hold Subtenant harmless from and against all claims of any kind whatsoever by reason of a breach or default on the part of Sublandlord of Sublandlord’s obligations under this Sublease, beyond any applicable notice and cure periods.

(a) Except to the extent such terms and provisions are inconsistent with or are specifically contrary to the express written provisions of this Sublease and except as provided in this Section 9, all of the terms, covenants and conditions of the Master Lease are by this reference incorporated herein and made a part of this Sublease with the same force and effect as if fully set forth herein, provided, however, that for purposes of such incorporation, (i) the term “Lease” as used in the Master Lease shall refer to this Sublease; (ii) the term “Landlord” (and other defined terms containing the term “Landlord” or any derivative thereof) as used in the Master Lease, and subject to the limitations of Sublandlord’s responsibilities to Subtenant under the Master Lease set forth in Section 10 of this Sublease, shall refer to Sublandlord; (iii) the term “Tenant” (and other defined terms containing the term “Tenant” or any derivative thereof) as used in the Master Lease shall refer to Subtenant; (iv) the terms “Term” and “Initial Term” as used in the Master Lease shall refer to the Term defined herein; (v) the term “Expiration Date” as used in the Master Lease shall mean the Termination Date of this Sublease; (vi) the term “Premises,” as used in the Master Lease shall refer to the Subleased Premises; and (vii) the term “Base Rent” as used in the Master Lease shall refer to the Fixed Annual Rent due under this Sublease. In the event of any inconsistency between the provisions set forth in this Sublease and the provisions of the Master Lease, as incorporated herein, the provisions of this Sublease shall control as between Sublandlord and Subtenant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following defined terms and provisions of the Master Lease are expressly not incorporated into this Sublease, and if otherwise used herein (or variations thereof are used herein), shall have their respective meanings set forth herein: (1) the definitions of Term Commencement Date, Rent Commencement Date, Outside Rent Commencement Date, Extension Term, Landlord’s Contribution, Maximum Amount, and Security Deposit/Letter of Credit, and any and all definitions or terms which are defined in or included in any of the Excluded Master Lease Provisions (as hereinafter defined) set forth in the

Master Lease (except to the extent used or referred to in this Sublease), (2) all within the Master Lease: Sections 1.2, 1.5, 3, 6, 7, 13.8, 17.8 (as between Subtenant and Sublandlord only, with the foregoing Section 17.8 still being applicable as it relates to Master Landlord), 25.3, 25.15 (as between Subtenant and Sublandlord only, with the foregoing Section 25.15 still being applicable as it relates to Master Landlord), 25.20, Exhibit 3, Exhibit 4, Exhibit 5, Exhibit 7, Section I of Exhibit 12; and (3) such other terms of the Master Lease which are inapplicable, inconsistent with, or specifically modified by the terms of this Sublease (collectively, the “Excluded Master Lease Provisions”). Any reference to an allowance in the Master Lease is not incorporated herein.

(b) Sublandlord shall have all of the same rights and remedies with respect to the Subleased Premises as Master Landlord has with respect thereto under the Master Lease. This Sublease is expressly subject and subordinate to any mortgages or deeds of trust and all matters of record, ground leases and underlying leases to which the Master Lease is now or hereafter subject and subordinate pursuant to the Master Lease without the requirement of delivering any subordination, attornment and non-disturbance agreement or other agreements to Subtenant.

(c) With respect to any of Subtenant’s obligations to be performed under this Sublease, when the Master Lease grants Sublandlord a specific number of days to perform its obligations thereunder, Subtenant shall perform such obligation not later than the date that is [***] prior to the date Sublandlord is obligated under the Master Lease to perform such obligation; provided, however, in no event shall Subtenant have less than [***] with which to perform any monetary obligations prior to a default being claimed in accordance with Section 15 hereof. Wherever in the Master Lease there is a specific number of days for Master Landlord to respond to a request from Tenant for consent or approval, Sublandlord shall have an additional [***] to respond to any such request from Subtenant under this Sublease. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of the Master Lease and this Sublease, the Master Lease shall govern and control except to the extent directly contradicted by the provisions of this Sublease.

10. Benefits of the Master Lease. Sublandlord agrees that Subtenant shall be entitled to receive all services, utilities, repairs and restorations to be provided by Master Landlord to Sublandlord under the Master Lease with respect to the Subleased Premises. Subtenant shall look solely to Master Landlord for all such services, utilities, repairs and restorations and shall not require Sublandlord to perform any such services, utilities, repairs and restorations. Sublandlord shall not be obligated (i) to provide any of the services or utilities, including cleaning, that Master Landlord has agreed to provide in the Master Lease, (ii) make any of the repairs or restorations that Master Landlord has agreed in the Master Lease to make, (iii) take any action that Master Landlord has agreed in the Master Lease to take and Sublandlord shall have no liability to Subtenant on account of any failure of Master Landlord to do so. Sublandlord agrees, upon Subtenant’s request, to use good-faith and reasonable efforts at Subtenant’s expense to (a) cause Master Landlord to provide the services or utilities or make the repairs or restorations described in the Master Lease, or (b) to obtain Master Landlord’s consent or approval wherever required by the Master Lease. Sublandlord agrees that if under the Master Lease any right or remedy of Sublandlord or any duty or obligation of Master Landlord is subject to or conditioned upon Sublandlord making any demand upon Master Landlord or giving any notice or request to Master Landlord then, if Subtenant shall so request, Sublandlord, at Subtenant’s expense, shall make such demand or give such notice or request on Sublandlord’s behalf.

11. Direct Performance. At any time by written notice to Subtenant, Sublandlord may elect to require Subtenant to perform its obligations under this Sublease directly to Master Landlord, and Subtenant shall do so on Sublandlord’s election, in which event Subtenant shall send to Sublandlord from time to time copies of all notices and other communications that it shall send to and receive from Master Landlord. Subtenant may also perform Sublandlord’s obligations if directed in writing by Master Landlord and thereafter shall be released of the obligation to perform such obligations to Sublandlord until directed in writing by Master Landlord.

12. Repairs; Alterations.

(a) Approval Required. Subtenant at its own cost shall keep the Subleased Premises in good condition and repair and in accordance with the applicable terms of the Master Lease. Subtenant shall not perform or cause to be performed any interior or exterior improvements to the Subleased Premises (“Subtenant Alterations”) without the prior written consent of Master Landlord (if required by the terms of the Master Lease) and Sublandlord, which consent of Sublandlord shall be automatically granted if Master Landlord grants its consent or if the Master Lease does not require such consent. Subtenant shall reimburse Master Landlord, if applicable, in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Master Lease, , for all reasonable third party out of pocket costs Sublandlord may incur in connection with reviewing Subtenant’s proposed Subtenant Alterations.

(b) Removal. Prior to expiration of the Term or earlier termination of this Sublease, if Master Landlord so requires pursuant to the terms of the Master Lease, Subtenant shall remove all of the Subtenant Alterations and restore the Subleased Premises to the same condition as of the Term Commencement Date, ordinary wear and tear and damage due to casualty, condemnation, and acts or omissions of Sublandlord or of Master Landlord excepted (this exception will not apply to any condition resulting from misuse or improper care or maintenance of the Subleased Premises by Subtenant or its agents, employees, contractors or invitees). Subtenant may request in writing to Master Landlord at the time Subtenant presents any plans to Master Landlord for review that Master Landlord designate whether Master Landlord will require that the proposed alterations shown on the plans be removed at the expiration or earlier termination of the Term of this Sublease, and Subtenant shall furnish a copy of any such designation to Sublandlord. In no event shall Subtenant be required to remove any alterations other than those installed by Subtenant and only to the extent required by the Master Lease and Master Landlord; all such other alterations, if any, shall be the obligation of Sublandlord to remove and restore the Subleased Premises in accordance with the Master Lease.

13. Assigning and Subletting.

(a) Consent Required. Notwithstanding any provision of the Master Lease to the contrary, Subtenant shall have no right to assign this Sublease or further sublease the Subleased Premises without the written consent of Master Landlord (in accordance with the terms of the Master Lease), and Sublandlord, to be granted or withheld in Sublandlord’s sole discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties acknowledge that Subtenant shall have the right to require an assignment of the Master Lease by Sublandlord to Subtenant not earlier than [***], but in no event more than [***] prior to the date upon which Sublandlord must provide an Extension Notice to Master Landlord pursuant to Section 1.2(a) of the Master Lease (such event, the

“Assignment”), so long as from and after the effective date of such Assignment, Sublandlord shall be released from any and all obligations and liabilities under the Master Lease (except those that by their terms are intended to survive the expiration or earlier termination of the Master Lease, but accrued prior to the effective date of the Assignment). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Subtenant’s exercise of its right to Assignment shall be subject to the consent of Master Landlord to the same.

(b) No Release of Subtenant. Regardless of Sublandlord’s and Master Landlord’s consent, no subletting or assignment shall release Subtenant of Subtenant’s obligation or alter the primary liability of Subtenant to pay the Rent and to perform all other obligations to be performed by Subtenant under this Sublease. The acceptance of Rent by Sublandlord from any other person shall not be deemed to be a waiver by Sublandlord of any provision of this Sublease. In the event of Default by Subtenant or any successor or assignee which remains uncured after any applicable notice and cure periods, if any, Sublandlord may proceed directly against Subtenant without the necessity of exhausting remedies against such assignee, subtenant or successor.

14. Use. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Sublease or the Master Lease, Subtenant shall use and occupy the Subleased Premises solely for those uses permitted by the Master Lease or as otherwise consented to by Master Landlord.

15. Default. The occurrence of any of the following shall constitute a “Default” by Subtenant: (a) failure to pay Rent or any other amount within [***] after written notice from Sublandlord to Subtenant of such late payment (a “monetary default”); (b) all those items of default set forth in the Master Lease which remain uncured after the cure period provided in the Master Lease, less [***]; and/or (c) Subtenant’s failure to perform timely and subject to any cure periods any other material provision of this Sublease or the Master Lease as incorporated herein.

16. Sublandlord Default. For purposes of this Sublease, Sublandlord shall not be deemed in default hereunder unless and until Subtenant shall first deliver to Sublandlord [***] prior written notice, and Sublandlord shall fail to cure said default within such [***] period, or in the event Sublandlord shall reasonably require in excess of [***] to cure such default, shall fail to commence said cure with such [***] period, and thereafter diligently to prosecute the same to completion.

17. Intentionally Omitted.

18. Quiet Enjoyment. So long as Subtenant is not in Default under this Sublease, its quiet enjoyment of the Subleased Premises shall not be disturbed or interfered with by Sublandlord or anyone claiming by, through or under Sublandlord.

19. Notice. Any and all communications delivered hereunder shall be in writing and delivered or served in accordance with Section 24 of the Master Lease addressed as follows: if to Master Landlord: as provided in the Master Lease; if to Sublandlord: [***]; and if to Subtenant: [***], or to such other address and attention as any of the above shall notify the others in writing.

20. Signage. Subtenant, at Subtenant’s sole cost and expense, shall be entitled to building standard signage, provided the same is in accordance with Master Landlord’s signage program and subject to Sublandlord’s and Master Landlord’s prior written consent, which consent of Sublandlord shall be granted if Master Landlord so consents. All signage shall comply with the terms of the Master Lease and with all federal, state and local rules, regulations, statutes, and ordinances at all times during the Term.

21. Parking. Per Section 1.3(b) of the Master Lease, Subtenant shall have the right to use all of the parking spaces, including all reserved spaces, granted to Sublandlord under the Master Lease, subject to the terms and conditions of the Master Lease.

22. Intentionally omitted.

23. Successors and Assigns. This Sublease and everything herein contained shall extend to and bind and inure to the benefit of Sublandlord and its successors and assigns and Subtenant and its heirs, executors, administrators and permitted successors and assigns. No rights shall inure to the benefit of any assignee, subtenant or occupant unless the parties comply with the provisions of Section 13 of the Master Lease and Section 13 of this Sublease.

24. Miscellaneous.

(a) Time of Essence. Time is of the essence with respect to the performance of every provision of this Sublease in which time of performance is a factor, including, without limitation, the giving of any notice required to be given under this Sublease or by law and the time periods for giving any such notice and for taking of any action with respect to any such notice.

(b) Partial Invalidity. If any term, provision or condition contained in this Sublease shall, to any extent, be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Sublease, or the application of such term, provision or condition to persons or circumstances other than those with respect to which it is invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each and every other term, provision and condition of this Sublease shall be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent possible permitted by law; provided that, if a material provision is adjudged void or unenforceable, the parties shall negotiate, in good faith, an equitable adjustment to such other provisions of this Sublease as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate as closely as possible the parties’ intent as evidenced by this Sublease.

(c) Entire Agreement. There are no oral agreements between the parties hereto affecting this Sublease and this Sublease constitutes the parties’ entire agreement with respect to the leasing of the Subleased Premises and supersedes and cancels any and all previous negotiations, arrangements, letters of intent, agreements and understandings, if any, between the parties, and none thereof shall be used to interpret or construe this Sublease. None of the terms, covenants, conditions or provisions of this Sublease can be modified, deleted or added to except in writing signed by the parties.

(d) Execution. Each individual executing this Sublease on behalf of Sublandlord or Subtenant represents and warrants that he or she has been duly authorized to do so.

(e) Interpretation. Preparation of this Sublease has been a joint effort of the parties and the resulting document shall not be construed more severely against one of the parties than against the other.

(f) Exhibits and Attachments. All Exhibits and attachments to this Sublease are a part hereof.

(g) Counterparts. This Sublease may be executed in counterparts with the same effect as if both parties had executed the same document. Both counterparts shall be construed together and shall constitute a single sublease. Pages may be transmitted by facsimile or electronically and

each of will be deemed an original. The signature pages of counterpart copies may be assembled to form one instrument.

(h) Limited Liability. In no event shall the partners, principals, members, officers, stockholders, directors, employees or agents of either Sublandlord or Subtenant be personally liable for the performance of that party’s obligations under this Sublease.

25. Sublandlord’s Consent. Whenever Sublandlord’s consent is required under this Sublease, Sublandlord’s rejection of a request made by Subtenant shall not deemed unreasonable, in any case, if such rejection is based on Master Landlord’s rejection of such request.

26. Brokers. Sublandlord and Subtenant each hereby represent and warrant that it has not dealt with any broker other than Colliers in connection with this Sublease for the Subleased Premises. Each party shall indemnify the other against any cost or liability resulting from the indemnifying party’s breach of the foregoing representation and warranty. Sublandlord shall be responsible for any commissions owed to the foregoing named brokers, subject to and in accordance with the provisions of separate agreements. This provision shall survive the expiration or sooner termination of this Sublease.

27. Master Landlord’s Consent. This Sublease is expressly conditioned upon Master Landlord’s written consent to this Sublease (the “Consent to Sublease”), which Sublandlord and Subtenant shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain.
