1.5 Transfer of Purchased Assets and Assumption of Assumed Liabilities.

(a) At the Closing, Seller shall deliver or cause to be delivered to Buyer all consents, certificates, documents, instruments and other items reasonably required to give effect to the transactions contemplated hereby, including those set forth in clauses (a) through (c) below, and Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver or cause to be delivered to Buyer the instruments set forth in clause (d) below, provided, that Seller’s obligation to deliver consents at the Closing shall be limited to those consents set forth on Schedule 6.2 (unless such consent is waived by Buyer at the Closing). Such instruments of transfer shall include, without limitation, the following: (a) one or more Bills of Sale substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Bills of Sale”); (b) one or more Intellectual Property Assignments substantially in the forms attached hereto as Exhibit B-1 and B-2 (the “IP Assignments”); (c) one or more Assignment and Assumption Agreements substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C (the “Assumption Agreements”); (d) assignments and necessary approvals, consents and waivers duly executed by Seller, a Buyer Entity designated by Buyer, and all necessary third parties with respect to the Acquired Agreements as set forth on Schedule 6.2 (unless such consent is waived by Buyer at the Closing).

Such instruments of transfer (i) shall be in form and substance satisfactory to Buyer, Seller and their respective counsel, with provisions (not inconsistent with the provisions hereof) which are usual and customary for transferring the type of property involved under the laws of the jurisdictions applicable to such transfers, (ii) shall serve purely to effect the legal transfer of the applicable Purchased Assets and Assumed Liabilities and shall not have any effect on the terms and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby, all of which shall be determined by this Agreement, (iii) shall not in any way modify, amend, or constitute a waiver of, any provision of this Agreement or include any additional representations or warranties, covenants or agreements except to the extent required by law of the applicable jurisdiction, and (iv) shall effectively vest in the applicable Buyer Entity good and valid, marketable title to the applicable Purchased Assets free and clear of all Liens, other than Permitted Liens (it being understood that if there is a failure to vest such title, Buyer and Seller shall remedy such failure pursuant to Section 5.4). Any physical Purchased Assets shall be deemed delivered by Seller or its Subsidiaries at the locations where such physical Purchased Assets are located immediately prior to the Closing, and subject to the provisions of the Transition Services Agreement, Buyer shall arrange for the transportation and relocation of any such assets to Buyer Entity locations at Buyer’s sole risk and expense.

(b) Promptly upon discovery of any asset or Liability not contemplated by this Agreement to be a Purchased Asset or Assumed Liability, respectively, but which was inadvertently transferred to the Buyer Entities, the Party making such discovery shall notify the other Party of any such asset or Liability in the Buyer Entities or their Affiliates possession or control, and the Parties shall take all actions to transfer and/or deliver back to Seller or its Subsidiaries such asset or Liability. Promptly upon discovery of any asset or Liability contemplated by this Agreement to be a Purchased Asset or Assumed Liability, respectively, but which was inadvertently not transferred to the Buyer Entities, the Party making such discovery shall notify the other Party of any such asset or Liability in the Seller’s or its Subsidiaries’ possession or control, and the Parties shall take all actions to transfer and/or deliver to the Buyer Entities such asset or Liability.

1.6 Delivery of Records and Contracts.

(a) At the Closing, Seller shall deliver or cause to be delivered to Buyer all written leases, contracts, commitments and rights evidencing Purchased Assets and Assumed Liabilities, with such assignments thereof and consents to assignments as are necessary to transfer Seller’s full right, title and interest in the same to the applicable Buyer Entity(ies) or to assure the applicable Buyer Entity(ies) the full benefit of the same.

(b) At the Closing, Seller shall deliver to the Buyer Entities correct and complete copies of all financial information contained on Seller’s NetSuite financial reporting system as set forth on Schedule 1.6(b).

(c) On or before January 15, 2016, Seller shall deliver to the Buyer Entities correct and complete copies of all financial information contained on Seller’s Great Plains financial reporting system as set forth on Schedule 1.6(c).

(d) With respect to Transferred Books and Records that are necessary for the preparation of the Audited Financials, Seller shall use best efforts to deliver such records to Buyer

within five (5) Business Days of request by Buyer; provided that in the event such records are not in Seller’s possession or under its control and Seller is unable to obtain such records within such five Business Day period, the Parties shall meet and discuss in good faith how to obtain such records as promptly as practicable, and shall enact any plan agreed upon.

(e) With respect to all other Transferred Books and Records other than those contemplated by subsections (a) through (d) above, Seller shall use reasonable best efforts to deliver such records to Buyer, to the extent such records are in electronic format and reasonably accessible to Seller, as soon as practicable after the Closing, with no liability to Seller for any Losses resulting from any delays in effecting such delivery.

1.7 Closing. The closing of the sale and purchase of the Purchased Assets and the transactions contemplated hereby (the “Closing”) shall take place on January 4, 2016, at such time and place mutually agreed by the Parties or, if later, within three (3) Business Days after the date on which the last of the conditions to closing contained in Section 6 and Section 7 has been satisfied or waived by the appropriate Party, or on such other time and date as Buyer and Seller agree in writing (the date of such Closing referred to herein as the “Closing Date”), at such time and place mutually agreed upon by the parties. The failure to consummate the purchase and sale provided for in this Agreement on the date and time and at the place as determined above will not result in the termination of this Agreement and will not relieve any Party of any obligation under this Agreement.

1.8 Allocation of Purchase Price. Within one hundred twenty (120) days after Closing, Buyer shall provide Seller with a draft allocation of the Purchase Price and Assumed Liabilities among the Buyer Entities and Seller and its Subsidiaries and among the Purchased Assets and the Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation Agreements referred to in Section 10 in accordance with Schedule 1.8. Seller shall have thirty (30) days to review and comment on such allocation. Any disputes regarding the allocation shall be submitted for resolution by a nationally recognized accounting expert as mutually agreed by Buyer and Seller. Such allocation shall be binding upon Buyer, the Buyer Entities and Seller for all purposes (including financial accounting purposes, financial and regulatory reporting purposes and tax purposes) unless otherwise required by applicable law. Each of the Buyer Entities and Seller shall timely and properly prepare, execute, file and deliver all such documents, forms and other information as the other Party may reasonably request to prepare such allocation. The Buyer Entities and Seller also each agree to file all tax returns consistently with the foregoing and in accordance with Section 1060 of the Code. Seller and the Buyer Entities shall cooperate to adjust the allocation to the extent the Purchase Price is adjusted under this Agreement.

1.9 Transfer Taxes. Subject to Section 1.12, all transfer, excise, documentary, sales, use, stamp, stamp duty, registration, and other such Taxes and fees (including any penalties and interest) incurred by reason of the sale and transfer of the Purchased Assets pursuant to this Agreement (but not including any Taxes that are recoverable by the Buyer Entities, which for the avoidance of doubt shall be paid by Buyer) that are mutually agreed by the Buyer Entities and Seller as being due and owing (the “Transfer Taxes”) shall be borne fifty percent by Seller, on the one hand, and fifty percent by the Buyer Entities, on the other. The Party required by law to file any necessary Tax Returns

and other documentation with respect to such Transfer Taxes shall file such Tax Returns and other documentation, and the non-filing party shall promptly reimburse the filing party for its share of any such Transfer Taxes upon receipt of reasonable evidence of the amount of such Transfer Taxes. The Buyer Entities and Seller shall reasonably cooperate in determining the final allocation of Purchase Price and Assumed Liabilities in a manner to minimize any Transfer Taxes due with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement as allowed under applicable law. In addition, the Parties further agree to provide or file such information, documentation or other items as necessary to qualify for any exemption from any Transfer Taxes, including any exemption certificates and for any qualifications for any isolated, causal or occasional sales exemptions. To the extent that it is commercially reasonable for a Party to provide or file information, documentation or other items to qualify for an exemption for a Transfer Tax and such Party fails to cooperate in providing or filing such information, documentation or other items, such Party shall be solely responsible for such Transfer Tax.

1.10 Withholding. Buyer (but not any other Buyer Entity) shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any amounts otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as Buyer reasonably determines, after consultation with Buyer’s and Seller’s counsel, that either of them is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code or any provision of federal, state, local, provincial, or foreign tax law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld and paid over to the appropriate Governmental Entity, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the person entitled to receipt of the payment in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made by Buyer.

1.11 Retained Technology. The Parties acknowledge that certain Transferred Technology may also be used or held for use by Seller or Seller Parent in their businesses (other than the Business) conducted as of the Closing. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Seller will not knowingly retain any Transferred Technology that is a complete, or substantially complete, product of or material component of a product of, or service offered by, Seller in its conduct of the Business and if Seller has notice that it has retained such Transferred Technology it will use reasonable commercial efforts to delete copies of such Transferred Technology not used or held for use in the businesses (other than the Business) of Seller or Seller Parent at or before the Closing in the ordinary course.

1.12 HST.

(a) Buyer and Seller will jointly execute and deliver, and Buyer hereby agrees to file an election (which shall be in the prescribed form and shall be filed by Buyer within the prescribed time therefor) under subsection 167(1.1) of the Excise Tax Act (Canada) (the “HST Election”) so that no HST is payable on Closing in respect of the transfer of the Purchased Assets.

(b) Notwithstanding Section 1.12(a) if the parties determine that the transfer of the Purchased Assets does not meet the conditions for the HST Election, Seller and Buyer will, notwithstanding Section 1.9, identify all of the Purchased Assets that are subject to HST (such assets being the “HST Assets”) and allocate a portion of the Purchase Price and Assumed Liabilities to the HST Assets on or before Closing. Buyer will then be responsible for paying HST on such allocation.

(c) If Seller and Buyer fail to agree to the allocation described in Section 1.12(b) on or before Closing, the amount of the Purchase Price and Assumed Liabilities allocated to the HST Assets will be deemed to be equal to the depreciated cost (as determined in accordance with GAAP) of the HST Assets.

The Seller Disclosure Schedule shall be arranged in sections and subsections corresponding to the numbered and lettered sections and subsections contained in this Section 2 and the disclosures in any section or subsection of the Seller Disclosure Schedule shall qualify only the corresponding section or subsection in this Section 2, except to the extent that it is reasonably apparent on the face of such disclosure (without independent knowledge on the part of the reader) that such disclosure is relevant to another section of this Agreement, in which case such disclosure shall be deemed to also qualify or apply to such other section.

This Agreement has been, and the other Transaction Documents to which it is a party when delivered at the Closing will be, duly executed and delivered by Seller, and constitute valid and binding obligations of Seller, enforceable against it in accordance with their respective terms, except to the extent that enforceability thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, fraudulent conveyance, moratorium and other similar Laws and Regulations affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by general principles of equity.

2.3 Noncontravention. Neither the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents by Seller, nor the consummation by Seller of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby will (a) violate or constitute a breach of any provision

For the avoidance of doubt, no representation or warranty is made in this Section 2.4 or in any other provision of Section 2 with respect to the Audited Financials in any respect.

2.9 Properties; Title to Assets.

(a) The Seller does not own any real property used in the operation of the Business. Section 2.9(a) of the Seller Disclosure Schedule contains a complete and correct list of all leases, subleases or assignments of leases (together with all amendments, modifications, supplements, renewals or extensions of any thereof) affecting each leased real property of the Business which Buyer intends to occupy after the Closing, regardless of whether Seller is the landlord or tenant, lessor or lessee (whether directly or as an assignee or successor in interest) under such lease, sublease or assignment. All such leases, subleases or assignments of leases, to the extent constituting Purchased Assets, are in full force and effect, are valid and effective in accordance with their respective terms, and there is not, under any of such leases, subleases or assignments of leases, any existing default or event of default (or event which with notice or lapse of time, or both, would constitute a default) that would give rise to any material claim. All such leases, subleases or assignments of leases will continue to be in full force and effect and valid, binding immediately following the Closing in accordance with the terms thereof as in effect immediately prior to the Closing.

(b) Seller owns outright and has good and marketable title to, or, in the case of leased properties and assets, valid leasehold interests in, all of the tangible items of Purchased Assets, free and clear of any Liens (other than the Permitted Liens).

(c) Other than the Excluded Assets and services under the Transition Services Agreement, the Purchased Assets and the Technology and Intellectual Property Rights licensed hereunder constitute all the material assets, properties or rights, including without limitation, contract rights, that are necessary for, used in or held for use in the conduct of the Business as currently conducted by Seller as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date; provided that the

foregoing is not a representation or warranty of noninfringement of third party Intellectual Property Rights, which are addressed in Section 2.10(c).

(d) Following the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the execution of the instruments of transfer contemplated by this Agreement, the Buyer Entities will own, with good, valid and marketable title, or lease, under valid and subsisting leases, or otherwise acquire the interests of Seller in the Purchased Assets, free and clear of all Liens (other than the Permitted Liens), provided, that Seller shall not be deemed to be in breach of this representation unless Buyer has delivered notice to Seller of a breach of this representation and Seller has failed to cure such breach after being given a reasonable opportunity to do so.

(e) The Transferred Inventory consists of items that are (and at the Closing will be) of a quality and quantity usable or saleable in the operation of the Business in the ordinary course.

(b) Seller or one of its Subsidiaries owns, or otherwise has the right to transfer to the Buyer Entities all of the Transferred IPR, free and clear of any Liens (other than Permitted Liens). Excluding employee agreements, agreements with consultants and independent contractors and non-disclosure agreements entered into in the ordinary course of business, Section 2.10(b) of the Seller Disclosure Schedule contains a true, correct and complete list as of the date of this Agreement of (i) any Contract pursuant to which Seller or any of its Subsidiaries has licensed or is obligated to license any Transferred IPR to a third Person, other than non-exclusive licenses entered into in connection with the sale or support of products of the Business or granted by Seller or any of its Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business (the “Out-Licenses”); and (ii) any Contract pursuant to which a third Person has licensed any Intellectual Property Rights to Seller or any of its Subsidiaries that is specific and material to the operation of the Business other than commercially available software or other Technology entered into in the ordinary course of business (the “In-Licenses”, and together with the Out-Licenses, the “Seller Licenses”).

(c) The operation of the Business, as currently conducted by Seller, does not infringe, constitute the misappropriation of, or violate (i) any Intellectual Property Rights (other than Patents) of any third party, or (ii) to the knowledge of Seller, any Patents of a third party. Seller is not aware of any claim, and to the knowledge of Seller, except as set forth on Schedule 2.10(c), it has never received any written notice or other communication (in writing or otherwise) of any claim, assertion or request for license from, any person asserting that the business of Seller, as currently conducted by Seller infringes, constitutes the misappropriation of, or violates any Intellectual Property Rights of another person. Seller is not aware of any existing or threatened

infringement, interference, misappropriation, or violation of the Transferred IPR by any third party that is material to the operation of the Business.

(d) Seller has taken commercially reasonable measures and precautions to establish and preserve the confidentiality and secrecy of the Trade Secrets that are material to the Business.

9.5 Assertion of Claims.

(a) Notice of Claim. Promptly after receipt of notice of any Losses for which an Indemnified Party seeks indemnification hereunder, it shall give written notice thereof to the Indemnitor demanding payment of an indemnification claim arising under Section 9.2 or Section 9.3 (a “Demand”). Such Demand shall describe in reasonable detail the nature of the claim, any material information regarding the claim in the possession of the Indemnified Party, an estimate of the amount of Losses attributable to such claim and the basis of Indemnified Party’s request for indemnification under this Agreement. No delay on the part of the Indemnified Party in notifying the Indemnitor shall relieve the Indemnitor from any obligation hereunder provided such Demand is made prior to the applicable Expiration Date (if any), unless such delay materially prejudices Seller’s ability to limit the associated Losses.

(b) Response to a Demand. The Indemnitor may reply to a Demand made under Section 9.5(a) hereof by written notice given to the Indemnified Party, which notice shall state whether the Indemnitor agrees or disagrees that the claim asserted by the Indemnified Party is a

valid claim under this Agreement and agree or disagree with respect to the amount of the Losses in such Demand. If the Indemnitor does not give to the Indemnified Party a notice within thirty (30) days after the date of the Demand (the “Indemnity Notice Period”) disputing such Demand specifying the nature and amount of such dispute or if the Indemnitor gives notice that such Demand is uncontested, then the Indemnitor shall deliver payment to the Indemnified Party in cash an amount equal to the value of the Losses stated in the Demand within the fifteen (15) days of the earlier of expiration of such Indemnity Notice Period or notice that the Demand is uncontested. If the notice from the Indemnitor admits that a portion of the Demand is a valid claim under Sections 9.2 or 9.3 of this Agreement and the remaining portion of the Demand is disputed, then the Indemnitor shall pay to the Indemnified Party in cash of an amount equal to the value of the Losses as are allocable to mutually agreed upon Losses within the fifteen (15) days of delivery of such notice from the Indemnitor and the disputed portion of such Demand shall be resolved in accordance with Section 9.5(c).

(c) Disputed Claims. If the notice given by the Indemnitor as provided in Section 9.5(b) hereof disputes the claim or claims asserted in the Demand by the Indemnified Party, or the amount of Losses thereof within the Indemnity Notice Period (a “Disputed Claim”), then the Demand shall be treated as a Disputed Claim and shall be payable only upon (i) a mutual settlement of the amount payable under such Disputed Claim or (ii) an order of a court of competent jurisdiction ordering the payment of amounts under the Disputed Claim.

(d) Third Party Claims. Promptly after receipt of any assertion of Losses by any third party (“Third Party Claims”) that might give rise to any Losses for which indemnification may be sought pursuant to Section 9.2, the Indemnified Party shall promptly give written notice to the Indemnitor of such Third Party Claim (a “Notice of Third Party Claim”), stating the (i) nature, basis and facts giving rise to such Third Party Claim, (ii) the amount of Losses or the estimated amount thereof to the extent feasible, and (iii) the amount of liability asserted against the Indemnitor by reason of the Third Party Claim, to the extent known. Such Notice of Third Party Claim shall be accompanied by copies of all relevant documentation with respect to such Third Party Claim, including, without limitation, any summons, complaint or other pleading that may have been served, any written demand or any other document or instrument. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the failure to provide notice as aforesaid to the Indemnitor will not relieve the Indemnitor from any liability which they may have to the Indemnified Party under this Agreement or otherwise except to the extent the Indemnitor shall have been materially prejudiced by such failure.

(e) Defense of Third Party Claims.

(i) Other than with respect to claims contemplated under Section 9.5(e)(ii) below, the Indemnitor may elect to defend any Third Party Claim with counsel of its own choosing, reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party, within fifteen (15) days after receipt of the Notice of Third Party Claim by the Indemnitor (the “Election to Defend”), and shall act reasonably and in accordance with its good faith business judgment in handling such Third Party Claim; provided that (i) (A) such Third Party Claim seeks monetary damages only and does not seek injunctive or other equitable relief, (B) there are no allegations of criminal wrongdoing alleged or asserted in such Third Party Claim, (C) it is reasonably anticipated that such Third Party Claim will not result in Losses in excess of the applicable liability cap in Section 9.4(b) after taking into

account the aggregate amount specified in the Third Party Claim together with all other claims for Losses under this Section 9, and (D) the Indemnitor agrees in writing to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Indemnified Party Indemnified Parties from and against all Losses arising out of or relating to such Third Party Claim on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Section 9 (subject to the limitations set forth in Section 9.4); and provided further that (ii) no Third Party Claim may be settled without a full release of the Indemnified Party from such Third Party Claim and the consent of the Indemnified Party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned; and provided further that (iii) such claim is defended actively and diligently. An election to assume the defense of such claim or demand shall be an admission that such claim is within the scope of the Indemnitor’s indemnification obligations hereunder. If any Third Party Claim may not be defended by the Indemnitor hereunder, or if the Indemnitor chooses not to defend any Third Party Claim by failure to deliver an Election to Defend or by failure to meet the conditions specified above, the Indemnified Party may defend against such Third Party Claim (provided, that no Third Party Claim may be settled without a full release of the Indemnitor from such Third Party Claim and without the consent of the Indemnitor), which shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned; and provided further that, if the Indemnified Party has defended such claim actively and diligently and if an Indemnitor does not consent to a proposed settlement that includes a full release of a full release of the Indemnitor from a Third Party Claim, the Indemnitor shall indemnify the Indemnified Party for all Losses in excess of such proposed settlement, without limitation by any liability caps in Section 9.4(b)), and seek indemnification pursuant to this Section 9 for Losses resulting from such Third Party Claim in accordance with Sections 9.2 or 9.3. In addition, if the Indemnitor has assumed defense of the Third Party Claim and if a potential or actual conflict of interest shall exist or if different defenses shall be available between the Indemnitor, on one hand, and the Indemnified Party, as applicable, on the other, then the Indemnified Party, as applicable, shall be entitled to retain no more than one separate legal counsel and be reimbursed for the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel as part of a Demand pursuant to Section 9.2. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Party not controlling the defense of the Third Party Claim shall at all times have the right to fully participate in such defense at its own expense directly or through counsel, and the Party controlling the defense of the Third Party Claim shall consult with the non-controlling Party on all significant strategic decisions regarding such defense. The Indemnitor and the Indemnified Party shall make available to each other and their counsel and accountants all books and records and information relating to any Third Party Claim, keep each other fully apprised as to the details and progress of all proceedings relating thereto and render to each other such assistance as may be reasonably required for the proper and adequate defense of any Third Party Claim.

(ii) With respect to claims under Section 9.2(c) and 9.3(c) for which the Indemnitor has acknowledged is indemnifiable under Section 9.2(c) and 9.3(c), as applicable, the Indemnitor shall defend any Third Party Claim with counsel of its own choosing and shall be permitted to conduct the defense of such Third Party Claim, including consenting to the entry of any judgment or the entry of any settlement with respect to the Third Party Claim, in any manner it may deem appropriate.

9.6 Tax Treatment. The Parties agree to treat all payments made by or deemed to be made by Seller under this Section 9 as adjustments to the Purchase Price paid hereunder unless otherwise required by applicable law.

9.7 Exclusive Remedy. The remedies set forth in this Section 9 shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of each Party hereto against the other parties for any Losses suffered as a result of any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement in this Agreement or any agreement entered into in connection herewith, other than the Transition Services Agreement.

SECTION 10

NON-COMPETITION AND NON-SOLICITATION COVENANTS

10.1 Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation. As further consideration for the purchase and sale of the Purchased Assets and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement:

(a) For a period of thirty (30) months after the Closing Date, Seller and Seller Parent shall not, and shall require their respective Affiliates not to, directly or indirectly,

(i) develop, market or sell any product or service that competes with the Competing Business, in any country in the world in which Seller conducted the Business during the two years before the Closing Date;

(ii) otherwise engage in any business that competes with the Competing Business in any country in the world in which Seller conducted the Business during the two years before the Closing Date;

(iii) call upon, solicit or otherwise communicate with any Person who is, at that time, or that has been, within two (2) years prior to that time, a customer of Seller for the purpose of selling any product or service that is competitive with the Competing Business;

(iv) grant a license or sublicense to any material Intellectual Property Rights or Technology licensed from Seller to Buyer pursuant to Section 4.1 to any third party for use in a Competing Business; provided, however, the foregoing shall not limit Seller, Seller Parent or its Affiliates from granting (A) in connection with a cross-license or otherwise, a license without field limitations to all, or a substantial part of, a Patent portfolio, regardless of whether such portfolio includes the Seller Licensed Patents, or (B) non-exclusive licenses to Seller’s, Seller Parent’s, or any of their Affiliates’ products in the ordinary course of their businesses; or

(v) transfer or assign any of the Seller Licensed Patents to any third party, unless such transfer or assignment includes restrictions on the transferee’s or assignee’s rights to such Patents of at least the same scope and duration as applicable to Seller as set forth in Section 10.1(a)(iv).

(b) For a period of two (2) years after the Closing Date, Seller and Seller Parent shall not, and shall require their respective Affiliates not to, directly or indirectly,

(i) employ or hire any Transferred Employee or Canadian Transferred Employee, or

(ii) call upon, solicit or otherwise communicate with any Transferred Employee or Canadian Transferred Employee for the purpose or with the intent of enticing, or in a manner reasonably likely to entice, such Transferred Employee or Canadian Transferred Employee away from the business of Buyer or any Buyer Entity.

With respect to Section 10.1(a), (i) the Buyer Entities agree that the business activities of Seller Parent and Seller Parent’s Affiliates (including any investments in third Persons), excluding the Business itself, but including the Excluded Business, as of the Closing Date are consistent with Section 10.1(a) and do not violate Section 10.1(a), (ii) Seller and its Affiliates shall be permitted to own passive investments in other Persons who may engage in the Business so long as such investments constitute less than 20% of the voting power of such Person, and (iii) Seller and its Affiliates shall be permitted to acquire any Person who engages in the Business so long as the portion of such Person which engages in the Business is less than 30% of the revenue or assets of such Person. The provisions of Section 10.1(a) shall automatically terminate and expire and be of no further force or effect whatsoever, without any action on the part of Seller, Buyer or any other Person, in the event of a Change of Control of Ultimate Seller Parent.

With respect to Section 10.1(b), the provisions shall not prohibit any generalized solicitation, including through employment-search firms, which are not specifically directed at the Transferred Employees or Canadian Transferred Employee, or the hiring of any individual who responds to such generalized solicitation, provided that such individual has not been an employee of Buyer or its Affiliates within six (6) months of such solicitation; provided, further, that the foregoing six (6) months limitation shall not apply to any hiring of any individual, other than a Key Employee who is not a resident of the State of California, if Seller reasonably believes, on advice of counsel, that the failure to hire such individual due to the restrictions in the foregoing proviso is inconsistent with applicable Laws and Regulations (including for avoidance of doubt, any resident of the State of California).

10.2 Confidentiality.

(a) Each of Seller and Seller Parent, on the one hand, and Buyer, on the other hand, recognizes that such Party has acquired and will acquire Confidential Information, the use or disclosure of which may cause the other parties substantial losses and damages that could not be readily calculated and for which a remedy at law may be inadequate. Accordingly, each of the parties hereto covenants and agrees that, except as set forth below, each such Party will not at any time, except in performance of its obligations to the other parties hereto, directly or indirectly, use, disclose or publish, or authorize other third persons (including Affiliates of such Party) to disclose or publish, any Confidential Information of the other Party, unless (a) such information becomes generally known to the public through no fault of such Party or any of their respective Affiliates, (b) the disclosing Party is advised by counsel that disclosure is required by Law or Regulations or the order of any Governmental Entity of competent jurisdiction under color of law, or (c) the disclosing Party reasonably believes that such disclosure is required in connection with the defense of a lawsuit against the disclosing Party; provided, that prior to disclosing any information pursuant to clause (b) or (c) above, such person shall give prior written notice thereof to Buyer and provide Buyer with the opportunity to contest or limit such disclosure and shall cooperate with efforts to

prevent such disclosure; provided that notwithstanding the above, Seller Parent and its Affiliates shall be permitted to use and disclose the information contained in the Transferred Books and Records to the extent necessary to comply with any ordinary course compliance obligations under applicable Law or Regulations, including in connection with its reporting obligations under applicable securities Laws and Regulations. Without limiting Section 10.1, and notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 10.2, so long as the Seller and Seller Parent use commercially reasonable efforts to protect the confidentiality of the Business Confidential Information of Seller and treats such Business Confidential Information with the same degree of care as it treats its own similar confidential information, Seller and Seller Parent may disclose Business Confidential Information to third Persons in the course of exercising the rights and licenses granted to it in Section 4. Notwithstanding the transfer or disclosure (including as a result of the transfer of the Transferred Employees or Canadian Transferred Employees) to Buyer Entities hereunder of any Trade Secrets or Business Confidential Information, Seller and Seller Parent may (i) exercise ordinary and reasonable business discretion with respect to its retained Business Confidential Information or Trade Secrets, as the case may be; and (ii) to the maximum extent permitted by Law, may enforce its rights in the event any third Person misappropriates such Trade Secrets or Business Confidential Information from it.

(b) From and after the Closing, Seller shall, or shall cause its Affiliates to, at the direction of Buyer, and at the sole expense of Buyer, enforce its or their rights under any confidentiality, non-solicitation and similar agreements with any Person entered into in connection with the proposed sale of the Purchased Assets or the Business.

10.3 Reasonable Restraint. The parties agree that the foregoing covenants in this Section 10 impose a reasonable restraint on Seller in light of the activities and business of Buyer and Buyer Entities on the date of the execution of this Agreement and the current plans of Buyer and Buyer Entities; but it is also the intent of the parties that such covenants be construed and enforced in accordance with the changing activities and business of Buyer and Buyer Entities throughout the term of this covenant.

10.4 Severability; Reformation. The covenants in this Section 10 are severable and separate, and the unenforceability of any specific covenant shall not affect the provisions of any other covenant. Moreover, in the event any court of competent jurisdiction shall determine that the scope, time or territorial restrictions set forth are unreasonable, then it is the intention of the parties that such restrictions be enforced to the fullest extent which the court deems reasonable, and this Agreement shall thereby be reformed.

10.5 Independent Covenant. All of the covenants in this Section 10 shall be construed as an agreement independent of any other provision in this Agreement, and the existence of any claim or cause of action of Seller against Buyer, whether predicated on this Agreement or otherwise, shall not constitute a defense to the enforcement by Buyer of such covenants. The parties expressly acknowledge that the terms and conditions of this Section 10 are independent of the terms and conditions of any other agreements including, but not limited to, any employment agreements entered into in connection with this Agreement. It is specifically agreed that the periods set forth in this Section 10 during which the agreements and covenants made in this Section 10 shall be

effective, shall be computed by excluding from such computation any time during which the person bound by such agreement or covenant is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to have been in violation of any provision of this Section 10. The covenants contained in Section 10 shall not be affected by any breach of any other provision hereof by any Party hereto.

10.6 Materiality. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that the covenants set forth in this Section 10 are a material and substantial part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, supported by adequate consideration.

Seller Parent hereby agrees that (a) the Buyer is not obligated to first bring suit or take other action or make any demand against Seller prior to seeking enforcement of Seller Parent’s guarantee herein, and (b) Seller Parent’s obligations pursuant to this Section 12.12 shall not be compromised or altered as a result of any extension, modification or change in the time for payment or other payment terms of this Agreement that are agreed to by Buyer and Seller.

(b) In the event that Seller Parent undergoes any merger, reorganization, consolidation, business combination, share exchange, tender offer, recapitalization, dissolution, liquidation or similar transaction of Seller Parent which is expected to (i) materially impair the ability of Seller Parent to perform under this Section 12.12 or (ii) cause Seller Parent to no longer be a Subsidiary of Ultimate Seller Parent, then prior to such transaction, Seller Parent shall assign its obligations under this Agreement to, and cause its obligations under this Agreement to be assumed by, another Subsidiary of Ultimate Seller Parent which has the financial capacity to perform any potential obligations under this Section 12.12 reasonably likely to require performance from and after the occurrence of such transaction.
