Each Seller represents and warrants to Purchaser that, to the Knowledge of Sellers, the statements contained in this ARTICLE VI are true, correct and complete with respect to the Business as of the date of this Agreement and as of the Closing Date, except as expressly set forth in the Schedules. The information disclosed in any numbered part of the Schedules shall be deemed to relate to and to qualify only the particular representation or warranty set forth in the corresponding numbered Section in this Agreement; provided, however, any matter disclosed in a Schedule by Parent or Sellers shall be deemed to constitute disclosure against all other representations and warranties of Parent and Sellers to the extent it is reasonably apparent on the face of such disclosure that the matter disclosed is relevant to such other representations and warranties of Parent or Sellers.

6.1 Non-Controlled Entities. Accurate and complete copies of the articles of incorporation and bylaws (or similar organizational instruments) of each Non-Controlled Entity have been delivered to Purchaser. No Non-Controlled Entity will be in default under or in violation of any provision of its articles of incorporation or bylaws (or similar organizational documents) at the Closing. Each Non-Controlled Entity is an entity duly organized, validly existing and (where such concept is applicable) in good standing under the Laws of its jurisdiction of organization. Each Non-Controlled Entity is duly qualified to do business in each jurisdiction where the nature of its business or properties makes such qualification necessary, except where the failure to be so qualified would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to be material to the Business.

6.2 Capitalization and Subsidiaries.

(a) Schedule 1.1-E lists each Non-Controlled Entity and the jurisdiction of organization thereof. Schedule 1.1-E, also lists the Seller, Purchased Company or Subsidiary thereof, as applicable, that owns an Equity Participation in a Non-Controlled Entity and the percentage ownership of such Equity Participation in such Non-Controlled Entity. All of the Equity Participations owned by any Seller, Purchased Company or any Subsidiary thereof are validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and free and clear of any all Encumbrances except for Permitted Encumbrances.

(b) Upon the Closing, Purchaser (or its designees), directly or indirectly, will have good and valid title to all Non-Controlled Entity Equity Participations owned by Sellers or a Purchased Company (or a Subsidiary thereof) (the “Owned Equity Participations”), free and clear of all Encumbrances except for the Permitted

There are no (i) Contracts with respect to the sale or transfer of Owned Equity Participations by any Purchased Company (or any of its Subsidiaries), (ii) Contracts with respect to the voting of any Owned Equity Participations, (iii) no preemptive rights, rights of participation, rights of maintenance or any similar rights with respect to Owned Equity Participations or (iv) Contracts with respect to the registration of, or restricting any Person from purchasing, selling, pledging or otherwise disposing of (or granting any option or similar right with respect to), any Owned Equity Participations.

6.3 No Conflict. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements, by any Parent Seller or any Purchased Company, to the extent that any such Parent will be a party hereto or thereto, does not and will not: (a) conflict with or violate the articles of incorporation or bylaws (or similar organizational documents) of any Non-Controlled Entity; (b) conflict with or violate, in any material respect, any material Law, Permit, Governmental Order, concession, franchise or license applicable to any Non-Controlled Entity; (c) result, in any material respect, in the violation or breach of, or constitute (with or without notice of lapse of time, or both) a material default (or give rise to a right of termination, cancellation, modification or acceleration of any material obligation or material loss of any benefit) under, result in an Encumbrance (other than Permitted Encumbrances) under, any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any Material Contract to which any Non-Controlled Entity is a party; (d) result, in any material respect, in the creation of any Encumbrance on any of the Owned Equity Participations other than the Permitted Encumbrances or (e) result in or give any Person any additional material right or entitlement (including any preemptive right, right of first refusal, right of first offer or similar right) under any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any Material Contract to which any Non-Controlled Entity is a party.

6.4 Litigation. There is no material Proceeding pending, threatened against, or directly affecting any Non-Controlled Entity. None of the Non-Controlled Entities are subject to any material Governmental Order. No Non-Controlled Entity has threatened or initiated the commencement of any material Proceeding against any other Person.

6.6 Compliance With Laws. Each Non-Controlled Entity is in compliance in all material respects with all Laws. Since January 1, 2006, no Non-Controlled Entity (i) has been subject to any Governmental Order with respect to any actual or alleged material non-compliance with applicable Law or (ii) received any notice or claim with respect to any actual or alleged material non-compliance with applicable Law. The Non-Controlled Entities hold all Permits that are required for the conduct in all material respects of the Business as now being conducted by such Non-Controlled Entities and (x) all such Permits are, and will be after the Closing, valid and in full force and effect and (y) no Proceedings are pending or threatened to revoke or modify any such Permit, and (z) no Non-Controlled Entity is in default under, and no condition exists that with notice or lapse of time or both would constitute a default under, any such Permit, except with

respect to (x), (y) and (z), in each case as would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to be material to the Business taken as a whole. As of the Closing, the Non-Controlled Entities hold all material Permits that are required for the conduct of the Business as it is being conducted by such Non-Controlled Entities as of the date hereof and such Permits are valid and in full force and effect, except as would not be material to the Business taken as a whole.

8.3 Books and Records; Access; Assistance.

(a) For a period of six (6) years after the Closing Date, Parent and Purchaser shall preserve and retain all accounting, legal, auditing and other books and records (including any documents relating to any Proceedings arising out of or with respect to the operation or conduct of the Business, regardless of whether such Proceeding is initiated before or after the Closing) over which it has control to the extent relating to the conduct of the Business prior to the Closing Date (which shall include, for the avoidance doubt, all facts and circumstances occurring or existing prior to the Closing that may give rise to a Claim by any Person, even if such Claim is not made until after the Closing). Notwithstanding the foregoing, during such six-year period, either party may dispose of any such books and records which are offered to, but not accepted by, the other party.

(b) From and after the Closing, if, in order to properly prepare documents required to be filed with Governmental Bodies (including Tax Authorities and the SEC) or its financial statements, or for any other reasonable business purpose, it is necessary that Parent or a Seller (or its Subsidiaries or successors), on the one hand, or Purchaser (or its Subsidiaries or successors), on the other hand, be furnished with additional information of the type described in Section 8.3(a) above, and such information is in the possession of the other party, such other party agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to furnish such information to the party that requires such information, at the cost and expense of the party being furnished such information.

(c) In the event of, and for so long as any party hereto (or its Affiliates) is prosecuting, participating in, contesting or defending any Proceeding, whenever filed or made, in connection with or involving (i) any transaction contemplated under this Agreement or (ii) the conduct or operation of the Business (including the German Business) prior to the Closing or the conduct or operation of the Excluded Businesses (or the Retained German Contracts) prior to or after the Closing, the other party hereto shall, and shall cause its respective Affiliates to, (A) cooperate with it and its counsel in, and assist it and its counsel with, the contest or defense, (B) make available its personnel (including for purposes of fact finding, consultation, interviews, depositions and, if required, as witnesses), and (C) provide such information, testimony and documents,

57 including, but not limited to, books and records, contracts, and commitments of the Business, whether stored in paper, electronic, or other format, during normal business hours and upon reasonable notice, in each case as shall be reasonably necessary in connection with the contest or defense, all at the sole cost and expense (not including employee compensation and benefits costs) of the prosecuting, participating, contesting or defending party (unless such party is entitled to indemnification therefor under ARTICLE IX or ARTICLE XIII). For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 8.3(c) shall not apply with respect to disputes between Parent, a Seller, Purchaser or any of their Affiliates. The covenants in this Section 8.3(c) shall not be deemed to limit the access and cooperation to be provided to Sellers by the Purchaser pursuant to Section 8.2, 8.3(a) or 8.3(b).

(d) At least twenty (20) days prior to Closing, Sellers and their Subsidiaries shall cause the Financial Statements and the Subsequent Financial Statements to be delivered to Purchaser. Prior to the Closing, Sellers and their Subsidiaries shall also prepare and deliver unaudited financial statements, for the period between September 28, 2007 and the last fiscal quarter that ended at least forty-five (45) days prior to the Closing Date. The September 28, 2007 audited financial Statements shall include an audit report from Deloitte & Touche that is no more qualified than the audit report for the September 29, 2006 audited financial statements previously provided to Purchaser. All such financial statements shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP and Regulations S-X of the SEC. Prior to and after the Closing, Sellers shall request, and take all reasonable steps necessary to encourage, the auditors of such financial statements to cooperate with the Purchaser and provide all necessary consents required by the SEC and customary “comfort letters” in connection with securities offerings of Purchaser, in each case at Purchaser’s sole cost and expense.

8.4 Cooperation.

(a) On the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, each party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Closing to occur (subject to the limitation in the proviso to Section 8.4(c)), including taking all reasonable actions necessary to comply promptly with all legal requirements that may be imposed on it or any of its Subsidiaries with respect to the Closing. Each Seller and Purchaser shall not, and shall not permit any of its respective Subsidiaries to, take any actions that would, or that could reasonably be expected to, result in any of the conditions set forth in ARTICLE X not being satisfied. Furthermore, Parent, each Seller and Purchaser will negotiate in good faith to mutually agree upon the terms of the Transition Services Agreement prior to the Closing Date on terms that are commercially reasonable and otherwise as the parties may agree. Among other things, the Transition Services Agreement shall provide for Parent’s access to Retained Employees with knowledge of the Brazil Business, the German Business and the Retained German Contracts and such employees shall provide general assistance to Parent in connection with Parent’s operation of the Brazil Business and the Retained German Contracts (the “Brazil and German Services”). For the avoidance of doubt, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Brazil and German Services shall be provided for a term of not less than 36 months (unless terminated earlier by Parent), or in the case of warranty claims

58 related to the Retained German Contracts, for so long as such warranties remain in effect, at a charge equal to the actual out-of-pocket costs incurred by a Purchased Company (or Subsidiary thereof) in connection with the provision of the Brazil and German Services, and such charges shall not include any internal allocated costs of any Purchased Company (or Subsidiary thereof).

(b) Without limiting the terms of this Section 8.4, Sellers, on the one hand, and Purchaser, on the other hand, shall (i) as soon as practicable after the date of this Agreement make any filings required by any Governmental Body pursuant to the HSR Act or other Competition Laws in connection with the transactions contemplated hereunder, (ii) respond promptly to inquiries from the applicable Governmental Bodies in connection with such filings, including providing any supplemental information that may be requested by such Governmental Bodies, and (iii) provide to the other copies of any filings made under the HSR Act or other Competition Laws promptly after the time they are filed with the applicable Governmental Bodies, excluding any information included in any such filings that the party has a need to keep confidential. Sellers, on the one hand, and Purchaser, on the other hand, shall furnish to the other such necessary information and reasonable assistance as the other may request in connection with its preparation of any filing or submission that is necessary under the HSR Act or other Competition Laws. Sellers, on the one hand, and Purchaser, on the other hand, shall keep each other apprised of the status of any communications with, and any inquiries or request for additional information from, Governmental Bodies pursuant to the HSR Act or any other Competition Laws. Each party shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain any clearance required under the HSR Act or other Competition Laws for the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Each of Purchaser and Sellers shall be responsible for their respective fees and all costs and submission of all regulatory filings related to any required governmental or regulatory approvals, including the HSR Act (which fee under the HSR Act, for avoidance of doubt, shall be borne by Purchaser), under the Applicable non-U.S. Antitrust Approvals and with respect to any other applicable Laws.

(c) Each party shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, use commercially reasonable efforts (at its own expense) to obtain, and to cooperate in obtaining, all Consents from third parties in respect of Contracts to the extent such Contracts require such Consents as a result of the transactions contemplated hereby; provided, however, that the parties shall not be required to pay or commit to (i) amend, supplement or modify any Contract or take any action with respect to any related project or (ii) pay any amount to (or incur any obligation in favor of) any Person from whom any such Consent may be required (other than nominal filing or application fees), except as otherwise required by Law or the applicable Contract. From and after the Effective Date until the Closing, Sellers and Purchaser shall execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, such other instruments of conveyance and transfer and take such other actions as Sellers or Purchaser may reasonably request (including, without limitation, the execution and delivery of summary translations and/or short form stock or asset purchase agreements), in order to more effectively consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided however that in the event of a conflict between any term or provision of (A) any such summary or agreement, on the one hand, and (B) the terms and

59 provisions of this Agreement, on the other hand, the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall control.

(d) Parent, on the one hand, and Purchaser, on the other, each shall keep the other reasonably apprised of the status of matters relating to completion of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including promptly furnishing the other with copies of written notices or other written communications received by Purchaser or Parent or any Seller, as the case may be, or any of their respective Subsidiaries or representatives, from any Governmental Body with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or from any Person alleging that the Consent of such Person is or may be required in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(e) Sellers shall give prompt notice to Purchaser, and Purchaser shall give prompt notice to Sellers, of, and each such party shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to prevent, or promptly remedy, (i) any representation or warranty made by it contained in this Agreement that is qualified as to materiality becoming untrue or inaccurate in any respect or any such representation or warranty that is not so qualified becoming untrue or inaccurate in any material respect (it being understood that any breach of this provision shall be treated as a breach of the representations and warranties for purposes of indemnification hereunder) or (ii) the failure by it to comply with or satisfy in any material respect any covenant, condition or agreement to be complied with or satisfied by it under this Agreement within the time contemplated hereby.

(f) With respect to any third party Software that is necessary for the Business as currently conducted and that is licensed to the Sellers or their Subsidiaries pursuant to an enterprise-wide Software license, the Sellers agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the consent of the respective licensors of such third party Software to a partial assignment, a grant of a sublicense by the Sellers (each such sublicense only to be effective until the Sellers’ next payment is due to such licensor under the applicable Software license), or the grant of a new license to Purchaser, to the number of copies of the applicable Software application that are used for the Business as currently conducted. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Purchaser shall reimburse the Sellers for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred in connection with any of the foregoing. The Sellers and Purchaser agree that in the case of a partial assignment, any such division of rights, responsibilities and credits (including without limitation any credits for pre-paid fees) between them under the existing enterprise licenses shall be in proportion to the actual usage (by seat count) of such Software applications by the Business immediately prior to the Closing Date to the actual usage (by seat count) of the Sellers and their Subsidiaries immediately prior to the Closing Date taken as a whole.

8.5 Confidentiality.

(a) Purchaser acknowledges that the information being provided to it in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby is subject to the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement, the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference.

60 Effective upon, and only upon, the Closing, the obligations under the Confidentiality Agreement shall terminate except with respect to provisions regarding disclosure and use of confidential information not related to the Business.

(b) Subsequent to the Closing, each Seller, on the one hand, and Purchaser, on the other hand, shall (and shall cause its respective Subsidiaries to) hold, and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause its respective representatives to hold, in strict confidence from any Person (other than any such representative) all non-public documents and information concerning the other party or any of its Subsidiaries furnished to it by the other party or such other party’s Subsidiaries or representatives, or to which such party otherwise has obtained access, in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby (“Confidential Information”), except to the extent that such documents or information can be shown to have been (A) previously known by the party receiving such documents or information (excluding, with respect to Sellers and their Subsidiaries, information relating to the Business), (B) in the public domain (either prior to or after the furnishing of such documents or information hereunder) through no fault of such receiving party or (C) later lawfully acquired by the receiving party from another source if the receiving party does not have actual knowledge that such source is under an obligation to another party hereto to keep such documents and information confidential; provided, however, that the foregoing restrictions will not apply to the Purchaser’s and its Subsidiaries’ use of documents and information concerning the Business. In the event that a Seller (or any of its Subsidiaries), on the one hand, or Purchaser (or any of its Subsidiaries), on the other hand, is requested or required (by oral question, interrogatory, request for information or documents, subpoena, civil investigative demand or similar process) to disclose any Confidential Information of the other, such party shall (x) provide the other party with prompt written notice so that such other party may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy or waive compliance with the provisions of this Section 8.5(b) and (y) cooperate with such other party in any effort such other party undertakes to obtain a protective order or other remedy. In the event that such protective order or other remedy is not obtained or such other party waives compliance with the provisions of this Section 8.5(b), such party shall disclose to the Person compelling disclosure only that portion of the Confidential Information that such party is advised by its counsel is legally required and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain reliable assurance that confidential treatment is accorded the Confidential Information so disclosed (to the extent available). For the avoidance of doubt, from and after the Closing, Confidential Information includes all non-public documents and information regarding the Business, and Sellers and their Subsidiaries and representatives shall be treated as the receiving party thereof.

(c) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 8.5 to the contrary, Purchaser shall have the right, upon receiving Parent’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, to disclose any or all of the Confidential Information received from Sellers to a party with whom Purchaser desires to discuss the possibility of acquiring some portion of the Business (the “Prospective Acquirers”); provided, however, that such Prospective Acquirer first enters into a confidentiality agreement with Parent and Purchaser at least as protective of the Confidential Information as this Section 8.5. In addition to the foregoing, Sellers shall, and shall cause each Purchased Company and any

61 of their Subsidiaries and their respective officers, employees, agents, representatives, accountants, counsel, consultants and advisors, to reasonably cooperate with Purchaser in connection with Purchaser’s efforts to sell certain assets of the Business or any Purchased Company to a Prospective Acquirer; provided that (i) such Prospective Acquirer has entered into a confidentiality agreement as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, (ii) Purchaser and Parent have obtained or waived all of the Consents set forth on Schedule 10.2(h) relating to the assets of the Business or the Purchased Company that such Prospective Acquirer is interested in purchasing and (iii) Purchaser shall bear all costs associated with any activities undertaken by any such agents, representatives, accountants, counsel, consultants and advisors in cooperating with Purchaser’s requests. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any transaction with any Prospective Acquirer shall not interfere or otherwise delay the Closing.

8.6 Employees.

(a) Sellers have notified or will notify, or, where applicable, has consulted or will consult with, all employees of the Business, and any works council where such notification or consultation is required by applicable Law, regarding the transactions contemplated hereby. Purchaser has notified or will notify or, where applicable, has consulted or will consult with, any works council where such notification or consultation is required by applicable Law regarding the transaction contemplated hereby. All notifications and consultations pursuant to this Section 8.6(a) shall be made in accordance with the requirements of applicable Laws. To the extent required by, and in accordance with, applicable Law, Sellers shall observe the rules that apply to (i) the information and consultation of any works council in relation to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and (ii) the transfer of Non-U.S. Business Employees to Purchaser.

(b) Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause each Purchased Company to continue the employment effective immediately after the Closing Date of all Non-U.S. Business Employees and U.S. Business Employees employed by the Purchased Companies and their Subsidiaries immediately prior to the Closing, including each such employee on medical, disability, family or other leave of absence as of the Closing Date. To the extent that any Non-U.S. Business Employee or U.S. Business Employee would not otherwise be employed by a Purchased Company or a Subsidiary of a Purchased Company as of the Closing, then, prior to the Closing Date but effective as of the Closing, Sellers shall, subject to the consent of the applicable employee (to the extent such consent is required under applicable Law), transfer to employment with the appropriate Purchased Company or Subsidiary any such Non-U.S. Business Employee or U.S. Business Employee and, from and after the Closing Date, all such employees shall continue in employment with the applicable Purchased Company or Subsidiary unless and until such employment is terminated.

(c) As of the Closing Date and for a period of at least one (1) year thereafter, Purchaser shall provide, or shall cause each Purchased Company to provide, each Retained Employee with compensation and other employee benefits that are substantially equivalent in the aggregate to the compensation and benefits provided to

62 such Retained Employee immediately prior to the Closing Date, provided, however, that Purchaser will provide each Retained Employee with severance benefits equal to those provided by Sellers, the Purchased Companies and their Subsidiaries for such one year period; and provided further that with respect to each U.S. Business Employee and each Non-U.S. Business Employee who is a participant in a medical or dental plan maintained by Sellers (or any Affiliate thereof) that is not an Assumed Plan, Purchaser shall either (A) establish a new medical and dental plan to provide such employees medical and dental benefits as of the Closing Date or (B) allow such employees to participate in an existing medical or dental plan that is maintained by Purchaser (each a “Purchaser Welfare Plan”), with coverage under the Purchaser Welfare Plans effective as of the Closing Date; and further provided that Purchaser shall be responsible in accordance with the applicable Purchaser Welfare Plans for all reimbursement claims (such as medical and dental claims arising from injuries or services incurred on or after the Closing Date) and for expenses incurred, from and after the Closing by such employees and their dependents. In connection with the foregoing, Purchaser and Parent will cooperate in communicating with and enrolling the Business Employees in Purchaser’s employee benefit plans. Additionally, (i) to the extent that any employee bonuses have been accrued as a current liability on the books and records of the Business in the Ordinary Course, Purchaser shall cause such bonuses to be paid in the Ordinary Course; (ii) to the extent that any other liability under any U.S. Business Benefit Plan, that is not an Assumed Plan, has been accrued as a current liability on the books and records of the Business, the Purchaser shall either pay such benefits in the Ordinary Course or reimburse Seller for any such benefits paid by Seller (or an Affiliate thereof) up to the amount accrued on the books and records of the Business as of the Closing Date (for avoidance of doubt, Purchaser or its Affiliates shall be responsible for any liabilities, such as any medical claims incurred-but-not-reported associated with any self insured health and welfare plans, to the extent such liability is accrued as a current liability on the books and records of the Business as of the Closing Date); and (iii) in accordance with the terms of that certain Notification Letter between Purchaser and Parent, (A) Purchaser shall, or shall cause its Affiliates or the Purchased Companies to, honor the terms of the retention agreements set forth in the Notification Letter and pay out any retention payments in accordance with the terms of such retention agreements (the “Retention Payments”) and (B) as soon as practicable following the provision by Purchaser of written confirmation indicating that any Retention Payments have been made to the applicable individual, Seller shall reimburse Purchaser for an amount equal to fifty percent (50%) of such Retention Payments.

(d) Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts (i) to give, or cause each Purchased Company to give, each Retained Employee credit under any benefit plan or personnel policies that cover the Retained Employee after the Closing Date, including any vacation, sick leave and severance policies, as maintained from time to time by Purchaser or the Purchased Company, for purposes of eligibility, vesting and entitlement to vacation, sick leave and severance benefits for the Retained Employee’s service with the Business prior to the Closing Date; provided, however, that no such service shall be credited for the purpose of determining an accrued benefit under any pension plan (other than any Assumed Plan as set forth below) of the Purchaser or the Purchased Company (except to the extent such service is recognized under any Assumed

63 Plan as of the Closing Date) or to the extent that would result in a duplication of benefits; (ii) to allow such Retained Employees to participate in each plan providing welfare benefits (including medical, life insurance, long-term disability insurance and long-term care insurance) without regard to preexisting-condition limitations, waiting periods, evidence of insurability or other exclusions or limitations not imposed on the Retained Employee by the corresponding Business Benefit Plans immediately prior to the Closing Date; and (iii) if any of the benefit plans are terminated prior to the end of the plan year that includes the Closing Date, to credit the Retained Employee with any expenses that were covered by the plans for purposes of determining deductibles and other applicable limits under any similar replacement plans.

(e) Purchaser shall cause each Purchased Company to honor the accrued and unused vacation and personal holiday amounts (including any earned vacation or personal holiday pay to be used in future years) each Retained Employee is entitled to use but has not used as of the Closing Date and Purchaser shall discharge such obligations in the Ordinary Course after Closing.

(f) All provisions contained in this Agreement with respect to employee benefit plans or employee compensation are included for the sole benefit of the respective parties hereto and shall not create any third-party beneficiary or other right in any other Person, including any employee or former employee of the Sellers or any of their Subsidiaries or any participant or beneficiary in any Business Benefit Plan.

(g) This Section 8.6 shall survive the Closing, is intended to benefit Purchaser and the Purchased Companies, and shall be binding on the Purchaser and the Purchased Companies. Nothing set forth in this Section 8.6 shall confer any rights or remedies upon any employee or former employee of the Business, any Retained Employee or upon any other Person other than the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Nothing in this Section 8.6 shall obligate Purchaser or the Purchased Companies to continue the employment of any Retained Employee for any specific period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in the preceding or any other provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted to interfere with Purchaser’s rights to amend or terminate any of the employee benefit plans, programs, policies and arrangements maintained by Purchaser or any Purchased Company, or interpreted as an amendment or other modification of any Business Benefit Plan; provided, however, that this provision shall not relieve Purchaser from its obligations set forth in Section 8.6(c) (it being understood and agreed that all benefits (excluding severance) currently provided by Purchaser to its employees are substantially similar in the aggregate to such benefits currently provided to the Business Employees in similar geographical locations).

8.7 Employee Plans.

(a) Each Retained Employee who is a participant in the Tyco (US) Retirement Savings and Investment Plan IV and V (collectively, the “Seller Savings Plans”) shall cease to be an active participant under the Seller Savings Plans effective as of the Closing Date. On or prior to the Closing Date, Purchaser shall cause (to the extent it does not already meet the following requirements) the AECOM Technology

64 Corporation Retirement & Savings Plan (the “Purchaser Savings Plan”) to (i) be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code and (ii) include a qualified cash or deferred arrangement within the meaning of Section 401(k) of the Code in which Retained Employees shall be immediately eligible to participate. Effective as of the Closing Date, Sellers shall take such actions necessary to fully vest each Retained Employee in his or her account balance under the Seller Savings Plans. As soon as practicable, but no later than sixty (60) days following the Closing Date, the Sellers shall use commercially reasonable efforts to take or cause to be taken such actions so that the Seller Savings Plans shall transfer to the Purchaser Savings Plan, and Purchaser agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Purchaser Savings Plan to accept such transfer, via a trust-to-trust transfer, the account balance (including promissory notes evidencing all outstanding loans and subject to any qualified domestic relations orders pursuant to Section 414(p) of the Code) of each Retained Employee under the Seller Savings Plans as of the valuation date next preceding the date of transfer and such transfer shall be made in accordance with the requirements of the Code and ERISA. Such transfer shall be subject to Sellers’ receipt of evidence satisfactory to them that the Purchaser Savings Plan is qualified under Sections 401(a) and 401(k) of the Code, which evidence may include a current determination letter from the IRS indicating that the Purchaser Savings Plan is qualified under Sections 401(a) and 401(k) of the Code. Following such transfer, Purchaser shall, or shall cause its Affiliates to, assume all Liabilities of Parent, Sellers and their Affiliates under the Seller Savings Plans to provide benefits to or on behalf of the Retained Employees to the extent of the account balances so transferred, and neither the Seller Savings Plans nor Parent, Sellers or their Affiliates shall have any obligation to Purchaser or any of its Affiliates or with respect to any Retained Employee with respect thereto.

(b) On the Closing Date, Parent, Sellers and Purchaser shall take all actions necessary to assign the sponsorship of the Seller Pension Plan to the Purchaser, and the Purchaser shall accept the sponsorship of the Seller Pension Plan, shall receive the assets and assume all Liabilities of such Seller Pension Plan, and shall hold Parent, each Seller and their respective Affiliates harmless regarding the same. Effective as of the Closing Date, Purchaser shall establish a trust (the “Purchaser’s Pension Plan Trust”) that meets the requirements of the Code and ERISA applicable to a trust established to hold assets of an Employee Benefit Pension Plan qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code. As soon as practicable after the Closing Date, (i) Parent shall cause the master trustee of the trust that holds the assets of the Seller Pension Plan to transfer to the trustee of the Purchaser’s Pension Plan Trust the assets relating to the Seller Pension Plan. Such transfer shall be subject to Parent’s receipt from the Purchaser of a copy of the Purchaser’s Pension Plan Trust and such information as is satisfactory to Parent and the trustee of the Seller Pension Plan prior to the Closing Date to establish that the Purchaser’s Pension Plan Trust meets all applicable requirements of ERISA and the Code. The amount so transferred shall be reduced by any distribution or other benefit payments that are made under the Seller Pension Plan with respect to any participant in the Seller Pension Plan in pay status or who is entitled to payment on or prior to the Closing Date or any Retained Employee who retires, dies or otherwise terminates his service with Purchaser after the Closing Date and before the transfer of assets described in this Section 8.7(b). Parent shall cause the benefit payments referred to in the

65 preceding sentence to be made from the Seller Pension Plan until the transfer of assets described in this Section 8.7(b) shall occur. Upon consummation of such assignment of sponsorship and transfer of assets, the Parent, Sellers and their Affiliates shall not have any further Liability to any participant in the Seller Pension Plan and, notwithstanding the Closing, Purchaser shall indemnify and hold harmless each of the fiduciaries of the Seller Pension Plan, Parent, each Seller and all Affiliates, employees, officers, directors and advisors of any of the foregoing with respect to any Liabilities which arise out of any claims for benefits made by any participant in the Seller Pension Plan with respect to the Seller Pension Plan.

(c) Effective as of the Closing Date, Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to have, or to cause its Affiliates to have, the AECOM Corporation Stock Purchase Plan or such substantially similar non-qualified deferred compensation plan (the “Purchaser Deferred Compensation Plan”) in effect so that each Retained Employee who is eligible to be a participant in the Tyco International (US) Inc. Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan and/or the Tyco Supplemental Savings and Retirement Plan (collectively, the “Seller Deferred Compensation Plans”) shall be immediately eligible to participate in the Purchaser Deferred Compensation Plan. As soon as practicable, but no later than sixty (60) days following the Closing Date, Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to take or cause to be taken such actions. Neither Purchaser nor any of its Affiliates shall assume or have any Liability with respect to the Seller Deferred Compensation Plans and any Retained Employee’s participation thereunder.

(d) Effective on and after the Closing Date, Purchaser shall, or shall cause its Affiliates to, (i) assume (or retain as applicable) the sponsorship of the U.S. Business Benefit Plans and Non-U.S. Business Benefit Plans identified with an asterisk on Schedule 5.7(a) or Schedule 5.7(l), as applicable, (the “Assumed Plans”), (ii) assume (or retain as applicable) all Liabilities and responsibilities of the applicable Sellers (or applicable Affiliate of a Seller) under the Assumed Plans and the portion of the Seller Savings Plans attributable to Retained Employees (the “Assumed Plan Liabilities”) and (iii) indemnify Parent, Sellers and their respective Affiliates against, and hold Parent, Sellers and their respective Affiliates harmless from, all Losses suffered or incurred to the extent arising out of or related to the Assumed Plan Liabilities. Except as otherwise required by applicable Law, effective as of the Closing Date, each Non-U.S. Business Employee and U.S. Business Employee employed by the Purchased Companies and their Subsidiaries at the Closing shall cease to participate in, or accrue any benefits under, all U.S. Business Benefit Plans and Non-U.S. Business Benefit Plans that are not an Assumed Plan. At the request of Purchaser, between the date hereof and the Closing Date, Sellers will cooperate with Purchaser, to the extent reasonable, in Purchaser’s establishment of its own health and welfare and other benefit plans, including providing Purchaser with copies of existing plan documents, third party administrator and vendor contracts and other relevant employee data.

(e) Purchaser shall have in effect as of the Closing Date, flexible spending reimbursement accounts under a cafeteria plan qualifying under Section 125 of the Code (the “Purchaser Cafeteria Plan”) that provide benefits to U.S. Business

Employees who had flexible spending reimbursement accounts immediately prior to the Closing in the Tyco Flexible Spending Accounts Plan, a plan intended to qualify under Section 125 of the Code (the “Seller Cafeteria Plan”), and Purchaser agrees to cause the Purchaser Cafeteria Plan to accept a spin-off of the flexible spending reimbursement accounts from the Seller Cafeteria Plan and to honor and continue through the end of the calendar year in which the Closing Date occurs the elections made by each Transferred Employee under the Seller Cafeteria Plan in respect of the flexible spending reimbursement accounts that are in effect immediately prior to the Closing. As soon as administratively practicable following the Closing Date, (A) the Sellers shall transfer to the Purchaser Cafeteria Plan an amount equal to the net Purchaser Cafeteria Plan flexible spending account balances with respect to Transferred Employees, to the extent the aggregate amount of such account balances is greater than zero or (B) Purchaser shall transfer to the Sellers an amount equal to the net Purchaser Cafeteria Plan flexible spending account balances with respect to Transferred Employees, to the extent the aggregate amount of such account balances is less than zero. From and after the Closing Date, Purchaser shall assume and be solely responsible for all claims by Transferred Employees under the Seller Cafeteria Plan, whether incurred prior to, on or after the Closing Date, that have not been paid in full as of the Closing.

(f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in the preceding or any other provision of the Agreement shall be interpreted to interfere with Purchaser’s rights to amend or terminate any of the employee benefit plans, programs, policies and arrangements maintained by Purchaser or any Purchased Company, or interpreted as an amendment or other modification of any Business Benefit Plan.

8.8 Replacement Letters of Credit, Bank Guarantees and Surety Bonds.

(a) Purchaser covenants and agrees that it shall:

(1) obtain new letters of credit, bank guarantees and surety bonds (the “Replacement Letters of Credit, Bank Guarantees and Surety Bonds”) to substitute for and replace the Letters of Credit, Bank Guarantees and Surety Bonds that are outstanding as of the Closing Date and are set forth in Section I of Schedule 8.8, and Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Letters of Credit, Bank Guarantees and Surety Bonds to be canceled and terminated as of the Closing Date and Parent and its Affiliates shall have no further obligation or Liability (contingent or otherwise) under such Letters of Credit, Bank Guarantees and Surety Bonds from and after the Closing Date; provided, however that if any such Letter of Credit, Bank Guarantee or Surety Bond cannot be terminated as of the Closing Date, Purchaser shall (A) cause such Letter of Credit, Bank Guarantee and Surety Bond to be cancelled and terminated on or before a date not later than sixty (60) days from the Closing Date and (B) reimburse Parent for all payments made by any Seller or any Affiliate of a Seller (other than a Purchased Company or a Subsidiary of a Purchased Company ) following the Closing with respect to any obligation pursuant to such Letter of Credit, Bank Guarantee or Surety Bond;

67 (2) reimburse Parent (within ten (10) days of Purchaser’s receipt of a demand for reimbursement), up to a maximum of $5 million in the aggregate, for all payments made by any Seller or any Affiliate of a Seller (other than a Purchased Company or a Subsidiary of a Purchased Company) with respect to any obligation pursuant to a Letter of Credit, Bank Guarantee or Surety Bond involving a project that, as of the Closing Date, is 95% or more complete (which, for the avoidance of doubt, includes completed projects);

(3) reimburse Parent (within ten (10) days of Purchaser’s receipt of a demand for reimbursement) for all payments made by any Seller or any Affiliate of a Seller (other than a Purchased Company or a Subsidiary of a Purchased Company) with respect to any obligation pursuant to a Letter of Credit, Bank Guarantee or Surety Bond that expires, or otherwise terminates pursuant to its terms, within sixty (60) days from the Closing Date; and

(4) use commercially reasonable efforts to assist Parent with causing each Letter of Credit, Bank Guarantee and Surety Bond described in items (2) and (3) above to be cancelled and terminated at the earliest date possible following the Closing.

(b) Purchaser further covenants and agrees that it shall use its best efforts to obtain the release of the Parent Guaranties set forth in Section II of Schedule 8.8 at the Closing, subject to the terms and conditions of the Guaranty Indemnification Agreement.

(c) For the avoidance of doubt, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, (i) Schedule 8.8 shall not be provided on the Effective Date, rather, Sellers shall provide Schedule 8.8 (which shall be current as of a date not more than fifteen (15) days prior to the Closing Date) to Purchaser not more than ten (10) but not less than five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing and (ii) Purchaser shall have no responsibility or obligation with respect to any Letter of Credit, Bank Guarantee or Surety Bond set forth in Section III Schedule 8.8.

8.9 No Negotiation. From and after the date of this Agreement until the earlier of the Closing Date or the termination of this Agreement, Parent shall not, and shall ensure that no Seller or Purchased Company (or any Subsidiary thereof) and no Representative or Affiliate of any Seller or Purchased Company (or any Subsidiary thereof) shall, directly or indirectly, except with respect to Prospective Acquirers: (a) solicit, facilitate or encourage the initiation of any inquiry, proposal or offer from any Person (other than Purchaser) relating to a possible Acquisition Transaction; (b) participate in any discussions or negotiations or enter into any agreement with, or provide any non-public information to, any Person (other than Purchaser) relating to or in connection with a possible Acquisition Transaction; or (c) encourage or accept any proposal or offer from any Person (other than Purchaser) relating to a possible Acquisition Transaction. Parent shall promptly (and in any event within 48 hours of receipt thereof) notify Purchaser in writing of any credible inquiry, proposal or offer relating to a possible Acquisition Transaction (including the identity of the Person making or submitting such inquiry, proposal or offer, and the terms thereof) that is

received by Parent, Seller or Purchased Company (or any Subsidiary thereof) or any Representative or Affiliate of such.

8.10 Brokers. Regardless of whether the Closing shall occur, Parent shall indemnify Purchaser and its Subsidiaries (including, after the Closing, the Purchased Companies) against, and hold the Purchaser and its Subsidiaries (including, after the Closing, the Purchased Companies) harmless from, any and all Liability for any brokers’ or finders’ fees or other commissions arising with respect to brokers or finders retained or engaged by a Seller or any of its Subsidiaries in respect of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including, the fees of UBS Investment Bank, and (b) Purchaser shall indemnify Parent, Sellers and their respective Subsidiaries against, and hold Parent, Sellers and their respective Subsidiaries harmless from, any and all Liability for any brokers’ or finders’ fees or other commissions arising with respect to brokers or finders retained or engaged by Purchaser or any of its Subsidiaries in respect of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

8.11 Further Assurances. Each Seller shall (and shall cause its Subsidiaries to) from time to time after the Closing Date, at Purchaser’s request, execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, such further instruments of conveyance, assignment and transfer or other documents, and perform such further acts and obtain such further Consents, as Purchaser may reasonably require in order to fully effect the conveyance and transfer to Purchaser or its designees, or perfect Purchaser’s or its designees’ right, title and interest in, the Target Shares and the Purchased Assets, or to otherwise comply with the provisions of this Agreement and consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements. In addition, each Seller shall take such action as is commercially reasonable to keep in full force and effect any Contract of the Business that cannot be or is otherwise not assigned to Purchaser or its Subsidiaries at the Closing and take such action as is commercially reasonable to provide for the benefit of Purchaser or its Subsidiaries any and all rights of such Seller under any such Contract.

8.12 Identified Claims. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein:

(a) Parent will defend, indemnify and hold harmless Purchaser and its Subsidiaries for any Losses arising from or relating to any and all Identified Claims as set forth on Schedule 8.12.

(b) Parent shall have the sole and exclusive authority and control over all matters pertaining to the Identified Claims, including the investigation, prosecution, defense and appeal of the Identified Claims, and may settle or compromise, or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any Identified Claim, without the consent of Purchaser or any of its Subsidiaries so long as such settlement, compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment does not create a liability for the Business or any of the Purchased Companies or adversely affect in any material respect Purchaser’s ability to operate the Business or otherwise adversely affect in any material respect its rights or title to any Purchased Assets, any Purchased Company (including any Subsidiary thereof) or any Non-Controlled Entity and any Purchased Company is fully released from such Identified Claim.

69 (c) Purchaser shall provide its reasonable cooperation to Parent in connection with all of the foregoing. Such agreement to cooperate includes, but is not limited to, an obligation to provide reasonable access to witnesses and to provide information and documents and respond to discovery requests. In all such cases, cooperation shall be timely so that Parent may meet all court-imposed deadlines. Parent shall promptly reimburse Purchaser for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including legal fees, incurred by Purchaser in connection with its cooperation pursuant to this Section 8.12(c).

(d) The parties acknowledge and agree that Parent shall be entitled to the ownership and benefit of any and all recoveries in the Identified Claims, whether by judgment, settlement or otherwise and, to the extent any such recovery is paid to Purchaser or any of its Subsidiaries, such amounts shall be immediately paid over to Parent.

8.13 Collections of Accounts Receivable. To the extent not inconsistent with the terms of the Transition Services Agreement, subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 8.13, after the closing and on a daily basis, Purchaser shall promptly (but in no event later than ten (10) days after receipt thereof) deliver to Sellers any cash, checks or other property that Purchaser receives following the closing to the extent relating to the accounts receivable or the operations of an Excluded Business. After the closing and on a daily basis, Sellers shall promptly (but in no event later than ten (10) days after receipt thereof) deliver to Purchaser any cash, checks or other property that Sellers receive to the extent relating to the Business, Purchased Assets, Purchased Companies (including any Subsidiaries thereof) or the Non-Controlled Entities.

(b) Indemnification by Purchaser. From and after the Closing Date, Purchaser shall indemnify Parent, Sellers and their respective Subsidiaries against, and hold Parent, Sellers and their respective Subsidiaries harmless from, (i) any Taxes of Purchaser, a Purchased Company or any of their Subsidiaries with respect to all Post-Closing Tax Periods, except as a result of the indemnifications provisions provided in Section 9.1(a); (ii) any Taxes of a Purchased Company or any of its Subsidiaries attributable to any transaction outside the Ordinary Course effected by Purchaser or at Purchaser’s direction on the Closing Date and after the Closing, other than any transaction contemplated by this Agreement or an Ancillary Agreement; (iii) any incremental income Taxes attributable to an election under Section 338 of the Code made with respect to any of the Purchased Companies or their Subsidiaries in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, other than any such Section 338 election to which Sellers consent in writing and any election made pursuant to Section 9.12; (iv) any income Taxes of a Seller, its Subsidiaries or any Purchased Company to the extent such income Taxes result from or are attributable to (A) any distribution by any

(a) If a claim for Taxes, including notice of a pending audit, shall be made by any Tax Authority in writing, which, if successful, could result in an indemnity payment pursuant to Section 9.1 (any such claim, a “Tax Claim”), the party seeking indemnification (the “Tax Indemnified Party”) shall notify the other party (the “Tax Indemnifying Party”) in writing of the Tax Claim within the shorter of (i) fifteen (15) Business Days after receipt of such Tax Claim or (ii) a period equal to one half of the number of Business Days from the date such Tax Claim is received until the first date a response is due with respect thereto. If notice of a Tax Claim is not given to the Tax Indemnifying Party within such period or in detail sufficient to apprise the Tax Indemnifying Party of the nature of the Tax Claim, the Tax Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to the Tax Indemnified Party to the extent that the Tax Indemnifying Party is actually prejudiced as a result thereof.

(b) The Tax Indemnifying Party may, at its election and at its own expense, control all proceedings taken in connection with any Tax Claim (including selection of counsel) and may either pay the Tax Claim and sue for a refund where applicable Law permits such refund suits or contest such Tax Claim; provided, however, that the Tax Indemnifying Party shall not settle or otherwise compromise such Tax Claim (i) without the Tax Indemnified Party’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld); or (ii) unless the Tax Indemnifying Party agrees to indemnify the

72

Tax Indemnified Party (and its Affiliates) from and against any Liability for Taxes resulting from such settlement or compromise and such settlement or compromise does not result in any change in accounting method for Tax purposes that affects a Post-Closing Tax Period. If the Tax Indemnifying Party elects to control such Tax Claim, the Tax Indemnifying Party shall keep the Tax Indemnified Party informed as to the status of such proceedings (including by providing copies of all notices received from the relevant Tax Authority) and the Tax Indemnified Party shall have the right to attend (and, to the extent that the resolution of such Tax Claim could materially adversely affect the Liability of the Tax Indemnified Party for Taxes for which it is not indemnified pursuant to Section 9.1(a), participate in), using counsel of its own choosing and at its own expense, all proceedings (including meetings and conference calls) relating to any Tax Claim. If the Tax Indemnifying Party elects not to control any proceedings relating to a Tax Claim, the Tax Indemnified Party shall control such proceedings but shall not settle or compromise such Tax Claim without the Tax Indemnifying Party’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld).

9.3 Tax Returns.

(a) Parent and each Seller shall prepare or cause to be prepared and timely file or cause to be filed, with respect to all taxable periods, (i) all Combined Returns (as defined below) and (ii) all Parent Separate Returns (as defined below); and Purchaser shall prepare or cause to be prepared and timely file or cause to be filed, with respect to Pre-Closing Tax Periods, all Purchased Company Separate Returns (as defined below) that have not been filed on or before the Closing Date. All such Combined Returns (to the extent relating to the Purchased Companies, their Subsidiaries or the Business) and Purchased Company Separate Returns shall be prepared, to the extent permitted by Law, in a manner consistent with prior practice of the applicable Purchased Company, and copies thereof (or, in the case of such Combined Returns, copies of the relevant portions thereof) shall be submitted to the other party at least 30 days prior to the applicable due date (i) for review and approval, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, if the other party bears liability for Taxes pursuant to Section 9.1 with respect to such Tax Returns; and (ii) for review and comment, with the preparing party considering in good faith any reasonable comments thereto, in each other case. Sellers shall pay or cause to be paid when due and payable all Taxes attributable to Pre-Closing Tax Periods with respect to all such Tax Returns to the extent such Taxes are not accrued as a Liability in the Closing Working Capital as finally determined pursuant to Section 2.6.

(b) Sellers, the Purchased Companies and Purchaser shall, at their own cost and expense, reasonably cooperate, and shall cause their respective Affiliates, officers, employees, agents, auditors and representatives reasonably to cooperate, in preparing and filing all Tax Returns, including maintaining and making available to each other all records necessary in connection with Taxes and in resolving all disputes and audits with respect to all taxable periods relating to Taxes.

(c) Any refunds or credits of Taxes attributable to Pre-Closing Tax Periods of the Purchased Companies or their Subsidiaries, plus any interest received with respect thereto from the applicable Tax Authority (including refunds or credits arising by

73 reason of amended Tax Returns filed after the Closing Date) shall be for the account of Sellers to the extent such Taxes were paid by Sellers or any Affiliate of Sellers (including the Purchased Companies and their Subsidiaries prior to the Closing Date) and shall be paid, net of any Tax cost to Purchaser and its Affiliates, by Purchaser to Sellers within ten (10) Business Days after Purchaser or any of its Affiliates receives such refund or after the relevant Tax Return is filed in which the credit is actually recognized by Purchaser or any of its Affiliates, except to the extent any such refund is reflected as a current asset in the Closing Working Capital as finally determined pursuant to Section 2.6. At Sellers’ expense, Purchaser shall, if reasonably requested by Sellers, file for, or cause to be filed for, and use its reasonable best efforts to obtain and expedite the receipt of, any refund to which Sellers are entitled to under this Section 9.3(c).

(d) Within thirty (30) days of the close of a Tax year of Purchaser in which any current or former officer or employee (or any dependent or beneficiary thereof) of any Purchased Company or Subsidiary thereof (i) is required to include in income any amount as a result of the lapse of any restriction with respect to shares of Tyco International Ltd. stock issued pursuant to a Business Benefit Plan, (ii) receives any amount under a Seller Deferred Compensation Plan, or (iii) exercises any option to purchase stock of Tyco International Ltd. pursuant to a Business Benefit Plan, Purchaser shall pay to the applicable Seller (as directed by Parent) an amount (net of any Tax cost to Purchaser or any of its Affiliates) equal to the product of (x) the gross amount of the deduction allowed or allowable to Purchaser or any of its Affiliates in computing its liability for Taxes (without regard to whether such deduction in fact reduces such liability) attributable to or resulting from the lapse of such restriction, the payment of such amount, or the exercise of such option and (y) thirty-eight percent (38%); provided, however, that this Section 9.3(d) shall apply only to lapses of restrictions, amounts received, or options exercised of this Section 9.3(d) on or before December 31, 2011. If a Tax Authority disallows or threatens to disallow a deduction described in this Section 9.3(d), the provisions of Section 9.2 shall apply to such claim and Parent shall be treated as the Tax Indemnifying Party. If all or a portion of the disallowance is upheld pursuant to a final settlement with the Tax Authority or by an administrative or judicial decision from which no appeal can be taken or the time for taking any such appeal has expired, Parent or the applicable Seller shall pay to Purchaser an amount equal to (i) the amount paid by Purchaser to the applicable Seller with respect to such deduction pursuant to this Section 9.3(d) (plus any interest or penalties paid by Purchaser with respect to such disallowance) less (ii) the product of (a) the amount of the deduction allowed, if any, and (b) thirty-eight percent (38%).

(e) Prior to Closing, Sellers shall have made available to Purchaser, at Purchaser’s expense, (i) all material federal, state, local, and foreign Tax Returns of or including the Purchased Companies (and any predecessor of a Purchased Company) and their Subsidiaries (or in the case of any Combined Return, the relevant portions thereof) for tax years 2004 through 2006 reasonably requested by Purchaser and within the possession of Sellers or their Affiliates, and (ii) complete and accurate copies of all material audit or examination reports and statements of deficiencies assessed against or agreed to by the Purchased Companies or any of their Subsidiaries since December 31, 2006.

74 (f) Solely with respect to U.K. Taxes:

(1) The Purchased Companies and Purchaser shall immediately sign and make such claims and elections and give such consents (including provisional or final claims to claim or surrender group relief in respect of any Pre-Closing Tax Period ) and comply with all procedural requirements in respect of making or giving of such claims or consents as the Parent or any Affiliate of Parent, in its absolute discretion, directs in writing. Neither the Parent nor any Affiliate of the Parent shall be liable to make any payment to the Purchaser or any Purchased Company for any group relief surrendered to any Affiliate of the Parent in accordance with this Section 9.3(f).

(2) Neither the Purchaser nor Purchased Companies shall do any act or thing (including in particular the carry back of losses from accounting periods ending after Closing under section 393A of the Taxes Act 1988 or section 83 of the Finance Act 1996) after Closing which:

(A) affect the ability of any Affiliate of the Parent to make claims for allowances or group relief, to accept surrenders of group relief in respect of any Pre-Closing Tax Period; or

(B) would reduce or extinguish any relief or allowance relating to any Pre-Closing Tax Period.

(g) Neither the Purchaser nor Purchased Companies shall amend, disregard, withdraw or disclaim any elections, claims or benefits (including without limitation, elections or claims under section 402 of the Taxes Act 1988 (group relief)) or disclaim or withdraw any initial or writing down allowances or any other capital allowances in respect of any Pre-Closing Tax Period.

9.4 Transaction Taxes. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, all transfer, documentary, sales, use, excise, stamp, registration and other such Taxes imposed by or payable to any jurisdiction or any Governmental Body (collectively, “Transaction Taxes”) arising from the transactions contemplated by any provision of this Agreement or in connection with any Ancillary Agreement shall be borne fifty percent (50%) by Purchaser and fifty percent (50%) by Sellers. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all value added taxes (including, but not limited to, VAT, GST and other similar taxes) shall be borne one hundred percent (100%) by the Purchaser. It is the understanding of the parties that the asset sale in Australia should qualify as a transfer of business and should not be subject to GST. However, should the Seller be liable to charge and account for GST it shall issue a valid GST invoice to the Purchaser. All necessary Tax Returns with respect to all such Transaction Taxes and value added taxes shall be filed by the party responsible for the filing of any such Tax Returns under applicable Law. For the avoidance of doubt, Transaction Taxes do not include income Taxes, and the Purchase Price set forth in Section 2.3 is exclusive of any Transaction Taxes and value added taxes payable.

9.5 Records Retention. Each of Parent and Purchaser shall retain (or cause its applicable Subsidiaries to retain) all Tax Returns, schedules, and work papers and all material records and other documents relating thereto of the Purchased Companies with respect to any Pre-Closing Tax Period until the expiration of the later of (i) the seventh (7th) anniversary of the Closing Date or (ii) the date on which Taxes may no longer be assessed under the applicable statutes of limitation, including any waivers or extensions thereof. Thereafter, each of Parent and Purchaser shall not destroy or dispose of any such Tax Returns, schedules, or work papers or any other material records or other documents relating thereto without giving written notice to the other party of such pending destruction or disposal and offering such other party the right to copy such documents and information. Parent or Purchaser, as the case may be, shall be entitled to destroy or dispose of any such Tax Returns, schedules, and work papers and all material records and other documents relating thereto described in such notice if such other party fails to request copies thereof within ninety (90) days after receipt of the notice described in this Section 9.5.

9.6 Exclusivity; Dispute Resolution . Except with respect to Sections 13.1(b), 13.1(c), 13.1(d) and 13.4(a), this ARTICLE IX, and not ARTICLE XIII, shall govern the administration of all Tax Claims, the retention of Tax records, and the determination of, procedures for, and all other matters related to Taxes arising under this Agreement. Any dispute regarding Taxes arising under this ARTICLE IX shall be resolved in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.6(e).

9.7 Tax Sharing Agreements . Sellers shall release or cause the release of each Purchased Company or Subsidiary thereof from any obligation under any existing agreement relating to the allocation or sharing of Taxes (the “Tax Sharing Agreements”) to which any Person (other than any other Purchased Company or Subsidiary thereof) is a party. For the avoidance of doubt, Sellers shall cause each Purchased Company and Subsidiary thereof to have no obligation under any Tax Sharing Agreement to any Person (other than another Purchased Company or Subsidiary thereof) for the payment of Taxes after the Closing.

9.8 FIRPTA Certificate. Prior to the Closing, the Sellers shall have delivered to Purchaser such forms and certificates, duly executed and acknowledged, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser, certifying that the purchase of the Target Shares and the Purchased Assets is exempt from withholding under Section 1445 of the Code.

9.9 Characterization of Indemnification Payments; Withholding. Unless otherwise required by Law, all payments made pursuant to ARTICLE IX or ARTICLE XIII hereof shall be treated for all Tax purposes as adjustments to the Purchase Price.

9.10 Closing of Tax Years; Straddle Period. To the extent permitted by Law, Sellers, the Purchased Companies, and/or Purchaser, as applicable, shall close each taxable period of each Purchased Company as of the close of the Closing Date. For purposes of this ARTICLE IX, in the case of any taxable period that includes (but does not end on) the Closing Date (a “Straddle Period”), the amount of any Taxes based on or

measured by income or receipts of the Purchased Companies for the Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be determined based on an interim closing of the books as of the close of business on the Closing Date (and for such purpose, the taxable period of any partnership or other pass-through entity in which a Purchased Company holds a beneficial interest shall be deemed to terminate at such time) and the amount of other Taxes of the Purchased Companies for a Straddle Period that relates to the Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be deemed to be the amount of such Tax for the entire taxable period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in such Straddle Period.

9.11 Waiver of Loss Carrybacks. To the extent permitted by Law, Purchaser shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, relinquish pursuant to Treasury Regulation section 1.1502-21(b)(3)(ii)(B) (or any similar provision of state, local, or foreign Law), with respect to all net operating losses attributable to any Purchased Company or Subsidiary thereof, the portion of the carryback period for which such Purchased Company or Subsidiary was a member of a consolidated group of which Parent or any of its Affiliates is or was the common parent. To the extent that a Seller or its Subsidiary receives a refund or actually realizes a credit as a result of the carryback of a Tax asset of a Purchased Company or Subsidiary thereof arising in a Post-Closing Tax Period, such Seller or Subsidiary shall pay to Purchaser, within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of such refund or after the relevant Tax Return is filed that reflects such realization, the amount of such refund or credit (together with any interest received thereon and net of any Tax cost to such Seller or Subsidiary). At Purchaser’s expense, the Sellers shall, if reasonably requested by Purchaser, file for, or cause to be filed for, and use its reasonable best efforts to obtain and expedite the receipt of, any refund to which Purchaser is entitled to under this Section 9.11.

9.12 Section 338(h)(10) Election.

(a) At the request of Sellers, which request shall be made in writing no later than the Closing Date, Purchaser shall join with Sellers (or an appropriate Affiliate of a Seller) in making an election under Section 338(h)(10) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder, and any corresponding or similar elections under U.S. state or local Tax laws (collectively, the “Section 338(h)(10) Election”) with respect to the purchase and sale of any Target Shares hereunder. In the event that Sellers do not request that Purchaser join in making the Section 338(h)(10) Election, the remainder of the provisions of this Section 9.12 shall not apply

(b) Sellers shall be responsible for the preparation and filing of all forms and documents required in connection with the Section 338(h)(10) Election, subject to prior review and approval by Purchaser and the procedures set forth in this Section 9.12. For the purpose of making the Section 338(h)(10) Election, on or prior to the Closing Date, Purchaser shall execute two copies of Internal Revenue Service Form 8023 (or successor form) with respect to the sale of the applicable Target Shares. Purchaser shall execute (or cause to be executed) and deliver to Sellers such additional documents or forms as are reasonably requested to complete properly the Section 338(h)(10) Election at

least thirty (30) days prior to the date such Section 338(h)(10) Election is required to be filed.

(c) As soon as practicable after the Closing, Sellers shall deliver to Purchaser an allocation of the purchase price for the Target Shares for which Sellers have exercised their rights under Section 9.12(a) (and any liabilities of the Purchased Company existing immediately after the Closing) for purposes of the Section 338(h)(10) Election. Sellers shall prepare the allocation in a manner consistent with the allocation method set forth in Treasury Regulation Section 1.338-6. Unless Purchaser notifies Sellers in writing that it disagrees with the allocation within ten (10) Business Days after receipt thereof, the allocation shall be conclusive and binding on Purchaser and Sellers. If Purchaser notifies Sellers in writing of its disagreement with the allocation within such ten (10) Business Day period, then Purchaser and Sellers shall attempt to resolve their differences with respect thereto within thirty (30) days after such Sellers’ receipt of Purchaser’s written notice of disagreement. Any dispute regarding the allocation not resolved by Purchaser and Sellers within such thirty (30) day period will be resolved by an Accounting Firm mutually acceptable to both parties or, in the absence of agreement, by an accounting firm of national reputation selected by lot after eliminating Sellers’ and Purchaser’s principal outside accountants and one additional firm designated as objectionable by each of Sellers and Purchaser. The determination by the Accounting Firm so selected of the allocation shall be conclusive and binding upon the parties. The fees and expenses of such accounting firm in acting under this Section 9.12(c) shall be shared equally by Purchaser and Sellers. Purchaser and Sellers shall file, and shall cause their Affiliates to file, all Tax Returns (and all statements, forms, and schedules in connection therewith) in a manner consistent with such allocation and with the Section 338(h)(10) Election and shall take no position contrary thereto unless required to do so under applicable Law

(d) To the extent permitted by U.S. state or local Tax Law, the principles and procedures of this Section 9.12 shall also apply with respect to a Section 338(h)(10) Election or equivalent or comparable provision under U.S. state or local Law.

9.13 Definitions. As used in this ARTICLE IX:

(1) “Combined Return” means a consolidated, combined or unitary Tax Return that includes a Seller or any of its Affiliates (other than the Purchased Companies and their Subsidiaries), on the one hand, together with one or more Purchased Companies or Subsidiaries thereof, on the other hand.

ARTICLE XII
CERTAIN RESTRICTIONS

12.1 Non-Competition. Parent and each Seller agrees that, except with respect to the Restricted Areas in which the Excluded Businesses operate, from and after the date of this Agreement until three (3) years after the Closing Date (the “Non-Competition Period”) it shall not, and it shall cause its Subsidiaries not to, directly or indirectly, in the Restricted Areas:

(a) engage in any business, operation or activity that is directly competitive with the business, operations or activities of the Business (a “Competitive Activity”); provided, that the foregoing shall not prohibit Parent and its Subsidiaries from collectively owning up to an aggregate of five percent (5%) of the outstanding shares of any class of capital stock of any publicly traded Person that engages in any Competitive Activity in any Restricted Area (a “Competing Person”) so long as neither Parent nor any of its Subsidiaries has any participation in the management of such Competing Person; or

(b) solicit away, divert or attempt to solicit away or divert from doing business (with respect to the Business) with Purchaser or any of its Subsidiaries (including, after the Closing, the Purchased Companies) any Person who was a customer or supplier of the Business at any time during the two (2) years prior to the Closing Date.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, nothing in this Section 12.1 shall (i) prevent Parent, any Seller or any of their respective Subsidiaries from selling or divesting any or all of its assets or businesses to any Person that is not an Affiliate of Parent or a Seller, and such Person shall in no way be bound by the restrictions set forth in this Section 12.1 or (ii) prohibit Parent, any Seller or any of their respective Subsidiaries from acquiring the whole or any part of a Person which engages in any Competitive Activity in any of the Restricted Areas or the whole or any part of a business which includes any Competitive Activity in any of the Restricted Areas where such Competitive Activities of such Person or business represent less than twenty percent (20%) of the revenues or generated less than $200,000,000 of revenues within the last twelve (12) months for of such Person or business acquired as set out in the latest available annual financial statements of that Person or business.

12.2 Non-Solicitation.

(a) Parent and each Seller agrees that from and after the date of this Agreement until eighteen (18) months after the Closing Date (the “Non-Solicitation Period”), it shall not, and it shall cause its Subsidiaries not to, directly or indirectly, request or induce any person who is either at any time from the date of this Agreement to the Closing Date employed primarily in connection with the Business or is employed by Purchaser or any of its Subsidiaries to terminate his or her employment with the Business, Purchaser or any of its Subsidiaries (including, after the Closing, the Purchased Companies), or hire during the Non-Solicitation Period any such employee; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not apply (i) to solicitations made by job opportunity advertisements and headhunter searches directed to the general public rather than

84 targeting any employees of Purchaser or any of its Subsidiaries and, with respect to all employees other than senior management of the Business as conducted by Purchaser and its Subsidiaries, the hiring of such employees or (ii) with respect to any employee who has been terminated by such other party prior to (or has voluntarily left his or her employment more than six months prior to) such solicitation or hiring.

(b) Purchaser agrees that during the Non-Solicitation Period, it shall not, and it shall cause its Subsidiaries not to, directly or indirectly, request or induce any person who is at any time from the date of this Agreement to the Closing Date employed in the Excluded Businesses (other than with respect to the employees being transferred with the Business pursuant to the terms of this Agreement) to terminate his or her employment with the Excluded Businesses, or hire during the Non-Solicitation Period any such employee; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not apply (i) to solicitations made by job opportunity advertisements and headhunter searches directed to the general public rather than targeting any employees of Parent, Sellers or any of their respective Subsidiaries and, with respect to all employees other than senior management of the Excluded Businesses, the hiring of such employees or (ii) with respect to any employee who has been terminated by such other party prior to (or has voluntarily left his or her employment more than six months prior to) such solicitation or hiring.

12.3 Specific Performance. Parent, Sellers and Purchaser recognize and affirm that in the event of breach by it or any of its Subsidiaries of any of the provisions of this ARTICLE XII, money damages would be inadequate and the other party would have no adequate remedy at law. Accordingly, Parent, Sellers and Purchaser agree that the other party shall have the right, in addition to any other rights and remedies existing in its favor, to enforce its rights and the other party’s obligations under this ARTICLE XII not only by an action or actions for damages, but also by an action or actions for specific performance, injunction and/or other equitable relief in order to enforce or prevent any violations (whether anticipatory, continuing or future) of the provisions of this ARTICLE XII. In the event of a breach or violation by Parent, a Seller or Purchaser of any of the provisions of this ARTICLE XII, the Non-Competition Period or Non-Solicitation Period, as applicable, shall be extended by a period equal to (i) the length of the breach or violation of this ARTICLE XII plus (ii) the length of any court proceedings necessary to stop such breach or violation. Parent, Sellers and Purchaser agree that the other party is not required to post a bond in order for the other party to secure an injunction.

12.4 Severability. If at any time any of the provisions of this ARTICLE XII shall be determined to be invalid or unenforceable by reason of being vague or unreasonable as to duration, area or scope of activity, or otherwise, then this ARTICLE XII shall be considered divisible (with the other provisions to remain in full force and effect) and the invalid or unenforceable provisions shall become and be deemed to be immediately amended to include only such time, area, scope of activity and other restrictions, as shall be determined to be reasonable and enforceable by the court or other body having jurisdiction over the matter, and Parent and each Seller expressly agrees that this Agreement, as so amended, shall be valid and binding as though any invalid or unenforceable provision had not been included herein. Without limiting the foregoing, if the length of the Non-Competition Period is determined to be unacceptable under

applicable Law, the Non-Competition Period shall be modified as determined by a court or other agency of competent jurisdiction or statute, as applicable, to be of the maximum length permitted under applicable Law.

12.5 Use of Trade Names and Trade Marks

(a) Except as otherwise provided herein, after the Closing, Purchaser shall (and shall cause Purchaser’s Affiliates to) refrain from using any of the Excluded Sellers’ IP, and any other Intellectual Property Rights of Sellers or their Subsidiaries not specifically acquired hereunder (including by the acquisition of the Purchased Companies by Purchaser and its Subsidiaries). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Purchaser shall (and shall cause Purchaser’s Affiliates to) specifically refrain from using in any manner the name “Tyco”, or any variation, derivation, or translation thereof, or any name likely to cause confusion with or dilute such name. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing contained herein shall limit Purchaser from using the name “Earth Tech”.

(b) As soon as practical after the Closing, but in no event later than 45 days after the Closing Date, Purchaser shall (and shall cause Purchaser’s Affiliates to), to the extent commercially reasonable and practicable, remove or render illegible all references to the “Tyco” name, or any variation thereof or any related mark or logo, appearing on any sales, marketing and shipping materials, and any other goods purchased and acquired hereunder; provided that if such removal or rendering illegible would cause such sales, marketing and shipping materials or such other goods to become unusable, or is otherwise not commercially reasonable and practicable, Purchaser (or Purchaser’s Affiliates) shall be entitled to use such sales, marketing and shipping materials or such other goods in the ordinary course of Purchaser’s business for a period of three (3) consecutive months following the Closing Date without modifying such references. Any use of the “Tyco” name by Purchaser (or Purchaser’s Affiliates) pursuant to this Section 12.5(b) shall: (i) be in conformity with the practices of Sellers and their Subsidiaries as of the Closing Date, (ii) be in a manner that does not in any way harm or disparage Sellers or their Affiliates or the reputation or goodwill of the “Tyco” name, and (iii) be contingent on Purchaser (or Purchaser’s Affiliates) maintaining the quality of goods and services used in connection with the “Tyco” name at a standard at least as high as that of the goods and services offered and sold by Sellers and their Subsidiaries as of the Closing Date.

(c) Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that the “Tyco” name is not owned by Sellers, but is licensed to Tyco International Services Holding GmbH by Tyco International Services GmbH pursuant to that certain License Agreement, dated June 29, 2007, a copy of which has been provided to Purchaser (the “License Agreement”). Any use of the “Tyco” name by Purchaser (or Purchaser’s Affiliates) as permitted hereunder is expressly conditioned upon compliance by Purchaser (and Purchaser’s Affiliates) with the relevant provisions of that certain License Agreement applicable to Tyco International Services Holding GmbH. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, and without expanding any right granted to Purchaser and its Affiliates in Section 12.5(b), in the event of a conflict between the terms of this Agreement (as such terms

relate to Purchaser’s and its Affiliates’ use of the “Tyco” name) and the terms of the License Agreement, the terms of the License Agreement shall control.

(d) As soon as practical after the Closing, but in no event later than one-hundred and twenty (120) days after the Closing Date, Sellers shall (and shall cause their Subsidiaries to) take all required action, including the filing of an amendment to any certificates of incorporation, to change any name of Sellers or their Subsidiaries, if applicable, to a name that does not include the phrase “Earth Tech”, or a phrase confusingly similar thereto. During such one-hundred and twenty-day period, Sellers and their Subsidiaries shall be entitled to continue using any sales, marketing and shipping materials, and to sell off existing inventory of products, that bear the “Earth Tech” name. Any use of the “Earth Tech” name by Sellers or their Subsidiaries pursuant to this Section 12.5(d) shall: (i) be in conformity with the practices of Sellers and their Subsidiaries as of the Closing Date, (ii) be in a manner that does not in any way harm or disparage the reputation or goodwill of the “Earth Tech” name, and (iii) be contingent on Sellers and their Subsidiaries maintaining the quality of goods and services used in connection with the “Earth Tech” name at a standard at least as high as that of the goods and services offered and sold by Sellers and their Subsidiaries as of the Closing Date.

ARTICLE XIII
INDEMNIFICATION

13.1 Losses Defined.

(a) The term “Losses” shall mean and include any and all Liabilities, losses, damages, Claims, expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees and the expenses of investigation and litigation), settlement, award, costs, fines, fees, penalties, breaches, obligations, injuries or other expense of any nature, whether or not involving a Proceeding, including costs of defending any Proceeding or enforcing an Indemnified Party’s rights hereunder. “Losses” shall not include special, incidental or consequential damages (other than consequential or incidental damages payable to a third party), including lost profits or loss of business opportunity.

(b) If the Indemnified Party actually recognizes a Tax Benefit on account of a Loss or Tax subject to indemnification under this ARTICLE XIII or ARTICLE IX at any time not later than two (2) years after an indemnification payment is made to the Indemnified Party in respect of such Loss or Tax (as applicable), then, to the extent of the amount of such indemnification payment, the Indemnified Party shall promptly pay to the Person or Persons that made such indemnification payment the amount of such Tax Benefit (net of any Tax cost to the Indemnified Party) at such time or times as and to the extent that such Tax Benefit is actually recognized by the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnified Party actually incurs any additional Tax cost arising from the receipt of the indemnity payments hereunder at any time within two (2) years after an indemnification payment is made to the Indemnified Party in respect of such Loss or Tax (as applicable), the Indemnifying Party shall promptly make an additional indemnification payment to the Indemnified Party in the amount of such Tax cost. As used in this Section 13.1, “Tax Benefit” shall mean any refund of Taxes paid or reduction in the amount of Taxes which

otherwise would be paid (less the costs of recovery of such refund or reduction to the Indemnified Party), in each case calculated on a with and without basis.

(c) The Indemnified Party shall use reasonable efforts to seek full recovery under all insurance policies and/or indemnification agreements covering any indemnifiable Loss or Tax (as applicable) to the same extent as the Indemnified Party would if such Loss or Tax were not subject to indemnification hereunder. In the event that an insurance or other recovery is made at any time within two (2) years of an indemnification payment by the Indemnifying Party with respect to any Loss or Tax (as applicable), then, to the extent of the amount of such indemnification payment, a refund equal to the aggregate net amount of the recovery (less the costs of recovery to the Indemnified Party, including any increase in premiums or similar costs) shall be made promptly to the Person or Persons that provided such indemnity payment to such Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall be subrogated to all rights of any Indemnified Party in respect of any Losses or Taxes indemnified by such Indemnifying Party.

(d) In computing the amount of any Tax cost or Tax Benefit pursuant to this Section 13.1, 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 any and all Losses or Taxes (as applicable). For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 13.1 shall not be construed to grant the Indemnifying Party any right to review the Tax Returns of the Indemnified Party.

13.2 Indemnification by Parent and Sellers. Subject to the other terms, conditions and limitations of this Agreement (including the provisions of Sections 13.4 and 13.5), Parent and Sellers agree to jointly and severally indemnify Purchaser and its Subsidiaries (including the Purchased Companies and their Subsidiaries) (the “Purchaser Indemnified Parties”) against, and to hold the Purchaser Indemnified Parties harmless from, all Losses suffered or incurred by any of the Purchaser Indemnified Parties to the extent arising out of or related to:

(a) any misrepresentation or breach or failure of any representation or warranty made by Parent in ARTICLE IV of this Agreement or in the Ancillary Agreements or in any certificate delivered pursuant hereto or thereto to be true and correct in all respects as of the date of the Closing (in each case, as such representation or warranty would read if all qualifications as to knowledge and materiality (including any qualifications as to Material Adverse Effect) were deleted therefrom);

(b) any misrepresentation or breach or failure of any representation or warranty made by a Seller in ARTICLE V or ARTICLE VI of this Agreement (other than any representation or warranty made in Section 5.8 (Taxes) for which indemnification is set forth in ARTICLE IX) or in the Ancillary Agreements or in any certificate delivered pursuant hereto or thereto to be true and correct in all respects as of the date of the Closing (in each case, as such representation or warranty would read if all qualifications as to knowledge and materiality were deleted therefrom);

(c) any Excluded Liabilities;

(d) any failure by Sellers or Parent to perform or comply with any covenant or agreement in this Agreement or in the Ancillary Agreements or in any certificate delivered pursuant hereto or thereto.

13.3 Indemnification by Purchaser. Purchaser agrees, subject to the other terms, conditions and limitations of this Agreement (including the provisions of Sections 13.4 and 13.5), to indemnify Parent, Sellers and their respective Subsidiaries (the “Seller Indemnified Parties”) against, and hold the Seller Indemnified Parties harmless from, all Losses suffered or incurred by any of the Seller Indemnified Parties to the extent arising out of or related to:

(a) any misrepresentation or breach or failure of any representation or warranty made by Purchaser in ARTICLE VII of this Agreement or in the Ancillary Agreements or in any certificate delivered pursuant hereto or thereto to be true and correct in all respects as of the date of the Closing (in each case, as such representation or warranty would read if all qualifications as to knowledge and materiality (including any qualifications as to Material Adverse Effect) were deleted therefrom);

(b) any failure by Purchaser to perform or comply with any covenant or agreement in this Agreement or in the Ancillary Agreements or in any certificate delivered pursuant hereto or thereto; and

(c) the operation of the Business after the Closing.

13.4 Limitations on Indemnification

(a) The representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement, and the right to assert a claim for indemnification with respect thereto pursuant to Sections 13.2(a), 13.2(b) or 13.3(a), shall survive the Closing until fifteen (15) months after the Closing Date and shall thereafter be of no further force of effect; provided that (i) the representations and warranties in Sections 4.1, 4.5, 5.1, 5.2, 5.3, 6.1, 6.2 and 7.1 (the “Surviving Representations”) and the right to assert a claim for indemnification with respect thereto pursuant to Section 13.2(a), 13.2(b) or 13.3(a) shall survive the Closing indefinitely, (ii) the representations and warranties in Section 5.8, and the right to assert a claim for indemnification with respect thereto pursuant to Section 9.1 shall survive the Closing until the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations for assessments plus thirty (30) days, and (iii) the representations and warranties in Sections 5.16 and 6.7 and the right to assert a claim for indemnification with respect thereto pursuant to Sections 13.2(a) or 13.2(b) shall survive the Closing until the third anniversary of the Closing Date, giving effect to any waiver, mitigation or extension of such period. Any covenants and agreements set forth in Section 8.4(e)(i), and the right to assert a claim for indemnification with respect thereto pursuant to Section 13.2(b) or 13.3(b), shall survive the Closing until the expiration of the period described in the previous sentence for the representation or warranty that is the subject of such claim. If a party delivers an indemnification notice to the other party before the expiration of a representation or warranty, then the right to assert a claim for indemnification with respect to the applicable representation or

89 warranty shall survive until, but only for purposes of, the resolution of the matter covered by such notice. No Claim for indemnification under Sections 13.2(a), 13.2(b) or 13.3(a) or under Section 13.2(d)or 13.3(b) to the extent such claim relates to a breach of a covenant or agreement set forth in Section 8.4(e)(i), (except with respect to Claims related to the Surviving Representations) may be made after the expiration of the applicable survival period.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, (A) an Indemnified Party shall not be entitled to indemnification under Sections 13.2(a), 13.2(b) or 13.3(a) (except with respect to Claims for indemnification related to the Surviving Representations) (collectively, the “Misrepresentation Claims”) until such party (together with its Affiliates) shall have incurred, (i) with respect to any particular Claim or series of similar claims arising out of the same facts or circumstances, an indemnifiable Loss in excess of Two-Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000) (such amount, the “Minimum Per Claim Amount”), in which event the Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to count the entire amount of such indemnifiable Loss towards the Deductible, and (ii) as to all Claims, indemnifiable Losses in excess of two percent (2%) of the Purchase Price in the aggregate (the “Deductible”) and (B) under no circumstance shall any Purchaser Indemnified Party be entitled to indemnification, or otherwise be entitled to assert a Claim for indemnification, for an NWE Loss in excess of the Indemnification Allocation of such NWE Loss.

(c) An Indemnifying Party shall be obligated to indemnify, defend or hold harmless any Indemnified Party with respect to the matters covered by Sections 13.2(a), 13.2(b) or 13.3(a), only to the extent the aggregate amount of Losses incurred and asserted by such Indemnified Party exceeds the Deductible and then only to the extent of such amount that is in excess of the Deductible; provided that no individual Loss or series of related Losses shall be so asserted unless and until the aggregate amount that would be payable pursuant to each such Loss or series of related Losses exceeds an amount equal to the Minimum Per Claim Amount (it being understood that any such individual Losses or series of related Losses for amounts less than the Minimum Per Claim Amount shall be ignored in determining whether the Deductible has been exceeded). Under no circumstance shall Parent’s and Sellers’, on the one hand, and Purchaser’s, on the other hand, aggregate obligation to provide indemnification for matters covered by Sections 13.2(a), 13.2(b) or 13.3(a) (except with respect to Claims for indemnification related to the Surviving Representations) exceed twenty percent (20%) of the Purchase Price.

(d) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement to the contrary, there shall be no right to indemnification hereunder for any Losses to the extent that such Losses were taken into account in the final determination of Closing Working Capital, Closing Business Debt, Change of Control Payments, Closing Transaction Expenses, Project Contributions, Chinese DBFO Proceeds, Dalriada DBFO Proceeds or Other DBFO Proceeds pursuant to Section 2.6. Except for any Claims (i) seeking equitable relief in connection with the failure of a party to perform its covenants hereunder or under the Ancillary Agreements, and (ii) a party may have under the express terms of any

90 Ancillary Agreement (other than one purporting solely to convey assets), from and after the Closing, subject to Section 8.12 and ARTICLE IX, this ARTICLE XIII constitutes the sole and exclusive remedy of all parties for any and all monetary Losses or other claims relating to or arising from this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.

(e) Each party shall take, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to take, commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate all indemnifiable Losses upon and after becoming aware of any event which could reasonably be expected to give rise to indemnifiable Losses.

(f) No Indemnified Party shall be entitled to recover any Losses or Taxes relating to any matter arising under one provision of this Agreement to the extent such Indemnified Party (or other Purchaser Indemnified Parties in the event of a Purchaser Indemnified Party, or other Seller Indemnified Parties in the event of a Seller Indemnified Party) had already recovered Losses with respect to such matter pursuant to that or other provisions of this Agreement.

(g) Notwithstanding any provision herein contained to the contrary, the Liability of each party under this ARTICLE XIII shall be in addition to, and not exclusive of, any other Liability that such party may have at law or equity based on such party’s fraudulent acts or fraudulent omissions. None of the provisions set forth in this Agreement shall be deemed a waiver by the Indemnified Parties of any right or remedy which they may have at law or equity based on another party’s fraudulent acts or fraudulent omissions, nor shall any such provisions limit, or be deemed to limit, (i) the amounts of recovery sought or awarded in any such claim for fraud, (ii) the time period during which a claim for fraud may be brought, or (iii) the recourse which the Indemnified Parties may seek against the Indemnifying Parties with respect to a claim for fraud; provided that the Indemnified Parties hereby waive to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law the remedy of rescission.

(h) The obligations to indemnify and hold harmless a party hereto in respect of an inaccuracy or breach of a representation or warranty, or the breach of a covenant or agreement set forth in Section 8.4(e)(i), shall terminate when the applicable representation or warranty terminates pursuant to this Section 13.4, provided, however, that such obligations to indemnify and hold harmless shall not terminate with respect to any item as to which the party to be indemnified shall have, prior to the expiration of the applicable survival period, previously made a claim to the Indemnifying Party in accordance with Section 13.5.

13.5 Procedures for Indemnification.

(a) Any Person making a claim for indemnification under Section 13.2 or Section 13.3 (an “Indemnified Party”) shall notify the party against whom indemnification is sought (an “Indemnifying Party”) of the claim in writing promptly after receiving notice of any action, lawsuit, proceeding, investigation, demand or other Claim against the Indemnified Party by a third party (a “Third Party Claim”), describing

91 the Third Party Claim, the amount thereof (if known and quantifiable) and the basis thereof in reasonable detail (such written notice, an “Indemnification Notice”); provided that the failure to so notify an Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations hereunder except to the extent that (and only to the extent that) such failure shall have caused the indemnifiable Losses to be greater than such Losses would have been had the Indemnified Party given the Indemnifying Party prompt notice hereunder.

(b) Any Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense of such Third Party Claim at such Indemnifying Party’s expense, and at its option shall be entitled to assume the defense thereof by appointing a reputable counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party to be the lead counsel in connection with such defense; provided that such assumption of the defense shall be deemed to constitute an admission of Liability with respect to the Third Party Claim for the purposes of this Agreement; provided further, that the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense of such Third Party Claim and to employ counsel of its choice for such purpose (provided that the fees and expenses of such separate counsel shall be borne by the Indemnified Party and shall not be recoverable from such Indemnifying Party under this ARTICLE XIII). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if (i) the Third Party Claim is primarily for non-monetary damages against the Indemnified Party or seeks an injunction or other equitable relief that, if granted, would reasonably be expected to be material to the Indemnified Party, (ii) the Indemnified Party shall have determined in good faith that an actual or potential conflict of interest makes representation of the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party by the same counsel or the counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party inappropriate, (iii) the Third Party Claim is by a customer or supplier, the loss of the commercial relationship with whom would be materially adverse to the Business, or (iv) the Third Party Claim is a criminal Proceeding, then in each case the Indemnified Party may, upon notice to the Indemnifying Party, assume the exclusive right to defend, compromise and settle such Third Party Claim and the reasonable fees and expenses of the Indemnified Party’s separate counsel shall be borne (A) in the case of (i) and (iv) above, by the Indemnifying Party to the extent the Third Party Claim is indemnifiable hereunder (but only to the extent such separate counsel agrees to comply with any written guidelines established by the Indemnifying Party that are applicable to substantially all outside counsel retained by such Indemnifying Party, which guidelines shall be provided to the Indemnified Party promptly upon the Indemnifying Party’s receipt of notice of the Indemnified Party’s assumption of the defense of such Third Party Claim) and (B) in the case of (ii) and (iii) above, by the Indemnified Party.

(c) Upon assumption of the defense of any such Third Party Claim by the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party will not pay, or permit to be paid, any part of the Third Party Claim, unless the Indemnifying Party consents in writing to such payment or unless a final judgment from which no appeal may be taken by or on behalf of the Indemnified Party is entered against the Indemnified Party for such Liability. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Indemnifying Party shall not compromise or settle, or admit any Liability with respect to, any Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), unless the relief consists solely of (i) money damages

92 (all of which the Indemnifying Party shall pay), and (ii) includes a provision whereby the plaintiff or claimant in the matter releases the Indemnified Party from all Liability with respect thereto.

(d) In all cases, the Indemnified Party shall provide its reasonable cooperation with the Indemnifying Party in defense of claims or litigation, including by making employees, information and documentation reasonably available. If the Indemnifying Party shall not reasonably promptly assume the defense of any such Third Party Claim, or fails to prosecute or withdraws (such failure to prosecute or withdrawal shall not effect the admission of liability based on the assumption of the defense of such Third Party Claim) from the defense of any such Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party may defend against such matter in a manner consistent with the above provisions regarding conduct of the defense by the Indemnified Party; provided that the Indemnified Party may not settle any such matter without the written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

(e) In the event that any party or any of its Subsidiaries alleges that it is entitled to indemnification hereunder, and that its Claim is covered under more than one provision of this ARTICLE XIII, such party or Subsidiaries shall be entitled to elect the provision or provisions under which it may bring a claim for indemnification.

(f) A claim for indemnification for any matter not involving a Third Party Claim may be asserted by notice to the party from whom indemnification is sought.

ARTICLE XIV

Section 13. Standby Letter of Credit. Following the occurrence of any Event of Default, Purchaser shall post a stand-by letter of credit in the form attached hereto as Schedule B in favor of Parent in an amount equal to $ . Such letter of credit shall give Parent the unconditional right to draw on the letter of credit in order to fulfill the reimbursement obligations of Purchaser hereunder (but only at the time and to the extent of a Parent Payment).The posting of such letter of credit shall not relieve Purchaser of its obligations hereunder. Purchaser shall be obligated to maintain the letter of credit until the unconditional release, expiration or termination of all Assumed Obligations.

Parent and Parent’s Subsidiaries agree to provide their reasonable cooperation with Purchaser in defense of such claims, including with respect to any defenses Parent or Parent’s Subsidiaries have against such claims and by making employees, information and documentation reasonably available; provided, however, that Parent and Parent’s Subsidiaries shall not be required to pay or commit to pay (or incur any obligation) other than nominal filing or application fees and the expenses of Parent or Parent’s Subsidiaries.

6.13 Waiver of Claims.

Each party hereto waives any claims or demands against the Escrow Agent and its principals with respect to all acts taken by such Escrow Agent in conformance with this Agreement. The Escrow Agent shall not have any duty to take any action other than as specifically provided for in this Agreement. The Escrow Agent shall not have any liability for any non-action if such action has been restrained by any order of any court or administrative agency or if, in its sole discretion, it determines that any such action would violate any law or governmental regulation.

6.14 Consolidation of Escrow Agent.

Any banking association, corporation, partnership or other entity into which the Escrow Agent may be merged, converted or with which the Escrow Agent may be consolidated, shall succeed to all the Escrow Agent’s rights, obligations and immunities hereunder without the
