Section 2.6 Shared Contracts; Approvals and Consents.

(a) Except as may otherwise be agreed by the Parties in writing or with respect to any Excluded Shared Contract, Sphinx shall use reasonable best efforts to separate, substitute, amend or replicate, on substantially the same terms (to the extent practicable; provided that, any material change in terms that would be applicable to Arion or an Other Arion Entity shall require the prior written consent of Arion), and Transfer the portion of each Shared Contract relating to the Business (the interest in such portion of a Shared Contract, a “Split Interest”) to and for the benefit of Arion or the applicable Other Arion Entity such that as of the Effective Time, each of Arion and Sphinx, or their applicable Subsidiaries as the case may be, shall be entitled to the rights and benefits of such Shared Contract and shall assume the related portion of any Liabilities (but, in the case of Arion, solely to the extent such Liabilities are Assumed Liabilities) inuring to their respective Split Interests in such Shared Contracts. Each Party shall use, and shall cause their respective Subsidiaries to use reasonable best efforts to, and shall reasonably cooperate with each other to, effect such separation (including to take the actions described in Section 2.6(d) but subject to Section 2.6(b)). The obligations of each Party under this Section 2.6(a) (not including, for the avoidance of doubt, (x) any obligation assumed by Arion as an Assumed Liability or (y) any obligation retained by Sphinx as an Excluded Liability) shall expire 18 months after the Closing Date.

(b) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or any other Closing Transfer Document to the contrary, neither this Agreement nor any other Closing Transfer Document shall constitute an agreement (i) to sell, convey, transfer, assign or deliver (a “Transfer”) to Arion or any Other Arion Entity any Purchased Asset (including any Business Real Properties) or any claim, right or benefit arising under or resulting from such Purchased Asset or (ii) separate and Transfer any Split Interest (including by way of replication of the Shared Contract) or any claim, right or benefit arising under or resulting from such Split Interest, in each case if and for so long as the Transfer or attempted Transfer to Arion or any Other Arion Entity without the Consent of a third party under applicable Law or the express terms of the applicable Contract, (A) would constitute a breach or other contravention of the rights of such third party, (B) would be ineffective with respect to any party to an agreement concerning such Purchased Asset or to a Shared Contract or (C) would materially and adversely affect the rights of Sphinx or its Subsidiaries or, upon Transfer, the rights of Arion or its Affiliates (as assignee, transferee or otherwise) with respect to such Purchased Asset

or Split Interest (such assets and interests being referred to herein as “Restricted Assets” and “Restricted Split Interests”, respectively, and collectively, the “Restricted Right”).

(c) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, unless and until any such Consent with respect to any Restricted Asset or Restricted Split Interest, as appropriate, is obtained or the applicable restriction or impediment on Transfer ceases to exist (such time, the “Consent Receipt Time”), neither such Restricted Asset nor such Restricted Split Interest shall constitute a Purchased Asset; provided that at no time on or after the Closing shall any Restricted Rights for which the Consent Receipt Time has not occurred constitute Excluded Assets nor shall any Liability arising out of, or related to, such Restricted Rights constitute an Excluded Liability solely by virtue of being Restricted Rights, in each case for purposes of Sphinx’s indemnification obligations under Article 9; provided, further, that the Liabilities (other than Excluded Liabilities) relating to or arising in connection with such Restricted Asset or Restricted Split Interest that would have otherwise constituted Assumed Liabilities at the Closing, shall, upon such Transfer to Arion or an applicable Other Arion Entity, be deemed to be an Assumed Liability for purposes of this Agreement to the same extent as if Transferred to Arion or such Other Arion Entity at the Closing. Once the Consent Receipt Time occurs with respect to any Restricted Rights, such Restricted Rights shall be Transferred to or assumed by Arion or an Other Arion Entity (but not before such time and not before the Effective Time) for no additional consideration, and, in each case, the rights, title and interest to such Restricted Asset or Restricted Split Interest shall be deemed to be Purchased Assets, in each case for purposes of this Agreement.

(d) From the Agreement Date until the date that is 18 months following the Closing, each Party shall use, and shall cause their respective Subsidiaries to use, reasonable best efforts, and shall reasonably cooperate with each other, to obtain or to cause to be obtained any requisite Consent, substitution, amendment, assignment or other modification required, including by delivery of any notice, to (i) Transfer and novate to Arion or the applicable Other Arion Entity all rights and obligations of Sphinx and its Subsidiaries with respect to the Purchased Assets and the Assumed Liabilities such that, in any case, Arion or the applicable Other Arion Entity will be solely benefited by and responsible for such rights and obligations from and after the Effective Time and (ii) except as may otherwise be agreed by the Parties in writing or with respect to any Excluded Shared Contract, separate and Transfer as of, or as promptly as practicable after, the Closing any Shared Contracts having a Restricted Split Interest, including by way of establishing a new contract with Arion or the applicable Other Arion Entity in respect of the Restricted Split Interest or assigning such Restricted Split Interest to Arion or its Subsidiary, such that, in any case, Arion or the applicable Other Arion Entity will be solely benefited by and responsible for such rights and obligations in respect of such Restricted Split Interest from and after the Effective Time. Nothing in this Section 2.6 shall require Arion, Sphinx or any of their Affiliates to pay any amount, grant any rights, grant any guarantee or provide any other consideration to any third party or incur additional costs or expenses in order to obtain any such Consent, substitution, amendment, assignment, modification or novation; provided that Sphinx agrees to provide any guarantee or other credit support required in order to obtain such Consent, substitution, amendment, assignment, modification or novation with respect to the Contract specified on Schedule 2.6(d) of the Sphinx Disclosure Letter, which guarantee or credit support shall expire at the end of term of such Contract as of the Agreement Date. In no event shall Sphinx, and Sphinx shall cause its Subsidiaries not to, (A) commit to make any payments other than cash payments that are Excluded Liabilities or otherwise paid in full prior to the Closing or (B) make any non-monetary concession that would purport to bind Arion, its Subsidiaries, the Business or any Purchased Entities following the Closing. In the event that Sphinx determines to seek a novation with respect to any Assigned Contract, then, subject to the same limitations under this Section 2.6(d) applicable

to the Parties’ obligations to seek a Consent, Arion shall, to the extent permitted under applicable Law, reasonably cooperate with, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to reasonably cooperate with, Sphinx and the Other Sphinx Entities (including, where necessary, entering into appropriate instruments of assumption) to cause such novation to be obtained and to have Sphinx and the Other Sphinx Entities released from all liability that constitutes Assumed Liabilities to third parties with respect to such Assigned Contract, in each case, to the extent consistent with the terms of this Agreement and with effect to occur from and after Closing. With respect to any Assumed Liabilities for which Sphinx, or any Subsidiary of Sphinx, has any material secondary liability to third parties, Arion shall, upon the reasonable request of Sphinx, provide Sphinx reasonable access and information in order for Sphinx to ascertain continuing compliance by Arion and its Affiliates with all material contract terms and conditions applicable to such material secondary liability. Notwithstanding anything else set forth in this Section 2.6 no Party shall be required to take any action that (A) violates any contractual obligation of such Party in effect as of the Agreement Date in a manner that would reasonably be expected to materially and adversely impact such Party or (B) violates applicable Law in any material respect.

(e) If any required Consent to Transfer Restricted Rights (or to replicate a Shared Contract in respect thereof) is not obtained on or prior to the Closing Date, then for 18 months following the Closing, the Parties shall continue to use their reasonable best efforts to obtain such Consents in accordance with Section 2.6(d). With respect to any Restricted Rights for which the Consent Receipt Time has not occurred, the Parties hereby agree to implement such reasonable arrangements (including subleasing, sublicensing or subcontracting) with respect to the underlying rights and obligations related thereto, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, as shall enable Arion or any other Arion Entity, on and following the Closing Date, to (i) enjoy the benefits of the applicable Restricted Asset or Restricted Split Interest, (ii) assume any Liability (other than an Excluded Liability and solely to the extent they would otherwise constitute Assumed Liabilities) arising from or related to any such Restricted Rights on or after the Closing, including any Taxes to the extent related thereto, as an Assumed Liability for purposes of this Agreement to the same extent as would have been the case had such underlying Purchased Assets and Split Interest been able to be Transferred to Arion at Closing and (iii) if applicable, for Arion to perform (and Arion hereby agrees to perform) the obligations of Sphinx or any applicable Other Sphinx Entity in respect thereof (solely to the extent they would otherwise constitute Assumed Liabilities), for no additional consideration, and for Arion to assume its portion of the payment, performance and other obligations thereof from and after the Effective Time in each case, to provide for Arion or the applicable Other Arion Entity the same benefits and to otherwise place Arion, Sphinx and their respective Subsidiaries in substantially the same after-Tax position such parties would have been in had such Restricted Asset or Restricted Split Interest been transferred at the Closing (such obligations, the “Subcontracted Work”), until the earliest of (A) the Consent Receipt Time with respect to the applicable Restricted Rights (or replication of the Shared Contract in respect thereof) shall have been obtained and (B) in the case of a Restricted Asset that is a Contract or a Restricted Split Interest, such time as such Contract or Restricted Split Interest shall have lapsed, expired or not have been renewed in accordance with its terms. Arion agrees to diligently perform and discharge, and shall cause its applicable Subsidiaries to perform and discharge, the obligations of Sphinx and its Subsidiaries in connection with any Subcontracted Work and shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Sphinx and its Subsidiaries for any Losses arising out of or relating to (x) any Purchased Assets held by Sphinx or any of the Other Sphinx Entities for the benefit of Arion pursuant to any such arrangement and (y) any failure of Arion and its Subsidiaries to perform and discharge such Subcontracted Work in accordance with the terms set forth in this Section 2.6(e) (such indemnity, the “Subcontracted Work Indemnity”), in each case except to the extent any of the foregoing

constitute Excluded Liabilities or such Losses result from the gross negligence, willful misconduct or intentional breach of Sphinx or its Subsidiaries. Sphinx shall be permitted to set off against any amounts held for the benefit of Arion pursuant to this arrangement all reasonable and documented direct out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including Taxes and any additional amounts sufficient to place Sphinx in the same after-Tax position as it would have been had the underlying Purchased Assets and Split Interest been able to be Transferred to Arion at Closing) associated with the retention and maintenance of such Purchased Assets following the Closing. From and after the Closing, to the extent permitted under applicable Law and for as long as Sphinx and Arion maintain the arrangements described above, Sphinx shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, hold in trust (or such equivalent mechanism permissible under local Law in each relevant jurisdiction) for and exercise at the sole direction of Arion, and pay or deliver to Arion promptly upon receipt thereof (as applicable), all benefits, rights, goods, services, income, proceeds and monies received by, or provided to, Sphinx or its Subsidiaries as provided in this Section 2.6(e). To the extent that a Consent to Transfer to Arion with respect to a particular Restricted Asset or Restricted Split Interest (or replicate the Shared Contract in respect thereof) is obtained after the Closing Date, the Parties agree that such obligations relating thereto will no longer be considered to be Subcontracted Work at such time, but will, to the extent such obligations would have been deemed to be Assumed Liabilities at the Closing, instead be deemed to be Assumed Liabilities for all purposes of this Agreement. The Parties shall enter into such reasonable arrangements, including with respect to Continuing Employees performing services under any Restricted Asset or Restricted Split Interest, as are necessary and appropriate to give effect to the arrangements provided for under this Section 2.6(e).

(f) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the provisions of this Section 2.6 shall not apply to any Consent required under any Antitrust Laws, which Consents shall be governed solely by Section 6.4.

(g) Arion acknowledges that certain Consents for the Purchase Transactions may be required and that certain of such Consents may not be obtained. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the failure to obtain any Consent (other than a Governmental Consent required to be obtained pursuant to Section 7.1(b)) for the Transfer of any Purchased Shares or Purchased Asset to Arion or its designated Affiliates, or the termination (or receipt of notice of termination thereunder) of any Assigned Contract or Shared Contract or any circumstances resulting from any of the foregoing, shall not, in and of themselves, individually or in the aggregate, (i) give rise to any Liability whatsoever of Sphinx arising out of or relating to such failure, (ii) (A) constitute a Sphinx Material Adverse Effect, (B) a breach by Sphinx of any representation, warranty or covenant under this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents or (C) a failure of any condition under this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents, including those in Article 7 or (iii) cause or otherwise result in an adjustment to the Total Consideration.

Section 2.7 Separate Transfer Jurisdictions. Each of Arion and Sphinx acknowledges and agrees that, in each of certain jurisdictions as identified in good faith between the Parties prior to the Closing Date (each such jurisdiction, a “Separate Transfer Jurisdiction”), the Transfer of the Business, including the Transfer of the Purchased Assets, Business Employees and assumption of the Assumed Liabilities in such Separate Transfer Jurisdiction (collectively the “Separate Transfer Business”) shall not be effectuated by this Agreement, but instead shall be effectuated subject to and in accordance with the Local Transfer Agreement applicable to such Separate Transfer Jurisdiction and the following:

(a) No Arion Party or Sphinx Party shall be obligated to execute or cause the execution of the applicable Local Transfer Agreement associated with a Separate Transfer Jurisdiction, nor

effect the Transfer of the related Separate Transfer Business, including the Transfer of the Purchased Assets and Business Employees and assumption of the Assumed Liabilities thereof, in each case, at the time of Closing should any of the conditions set forth on Schedule 2.7(a) of the Sphinx Disclosure Letter apply with respect to such Separate Transfer Jurisdiction (including for avoidance of doubt, with respect to any Sphinx Pre-Closing Restructuring Step).

(b) In the event any of the conditions described in Section 2.7(a) (each, a “Delayed Transfer Condition”) exist at the time of Closing with respect to any Separate Transfer Business, the Parties shall use their reasonable best efforts to (i) make such filings and obtain any such required consents or approvals, (ii) resolve any such prohibitions under applicable Law, (iii) cause the expiration of any such mandatory waiting periods and (iv) complete any such required notifications, consultations or negotiations, in each case as is necessary for the Parties to resolve the applicable Delayed Transfer Condition so that such Delayed Transfer Condition shall no longer apply, and permit, as promptly as practicable, the execution of the applicable Local Transfer Agreement and Transfer of the related Separate Transfer Business. Sphinx shall bear all costs and expenses arising from the actions contemplated in the preceding sentence and shall settle and reimburse Arion for any obligations for any such costs and expenses paid by Arion for which Sphinx is liable under this sentence promptly after being invoiced therefore by Arion.

(c) To the extent applicable, from the Closing Date until the date (if any) on which any Separate Transfer Business is Transferred (with respect to such Separate Transfer Business, the “Separate Transfer Date”) pursuant to the applicable Local Transfer Agreement, Sphinx, with the reasonable cooperation of Arion, shall operate such Separate Transfer Business in the ordinary course of business, taking into account the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, in compliance with applicable Law and subject to the covenants of Sphinx set forth in Section 6.1. In addition, prior to a Separate Transfer Date and to the extent permitted by applicable Law, Sphinx shall, and shall cause each of its applicable Subsidiaries to, conduct such Separate Transfer Business in the applicable Separate Transfer Jurisdiction in accordance with Arion’s instructions and for the sole benefit and sole detriment of Arion so that all benefits and detriments attributable to such Separate Transfer Business inure from and after the Closing solely to Arion. Arion shall indemnify Sphinx for all costs and expenses arising from the operation of a Separate Transfer Business pursuant to this Section 2.7(c) from and after the Closing and through the Separate Transfer Date, except to the extent any of the foregoing would constitute Excluded Liabilities and except for such Liabilities or obligations arising as a result of the failure of Sphinx to follow the instructions of Arion or as a result of a violation of this Section 2.7.

Section 2.8 Pre-Closing Restructuring.

(a) From time to time prior to the Closing Date, Sphinx shall perform restructuring activities to effect the reorganization of legal entities to separate the Business from Sphinx’s other businesses as set forth on Schedule 2.8(a) of the Sphinx Disclosure Letter and to cause each of the Purchased Entities to be treated as disregarded as an entity separate from its owner under Treasury Regulation Section 301.7701-3 prior to the Closing Date (collectively, the “Sphinx Pre-Closing Restructuring Steps”) in order to consummate the Purchase Transactions at the Closing. All Taxes (other than Transfer Taxes, which shall be borne one-half by each of Sphinx and Arion) and other costs and expenses relating to such Sphinx Pre-Closing Restructuring Steps shall be borne solely by Sphinx.

(b) From time to time prior to the Closing Date, Arion shall perform the steps set forth on Schedule 2.8(b) of the Arion Disclosure Letter (collectively, the “Arion Pre-Closing Restructuring Steps”) and such other steps (including any modifications or changes to the steps set forth on Schedule 2.8(b) of the Arion Disclosure Letter) that are necessary in order to consummate the Purchase Transactions at the Closing; provided that, Arion shall notify Sphinx as soon as practicable prior to the Closing Date as to any such other steps and consider in Arion’s good faith discretion any reasonable comments made by Sphinx with respect thereto. All Taxes (other than Transfer Taxes, which shall be borne one-half by each of Sphinx and Arion) and other costs and expenses relating to such Arion Pre-Closing Restructuring Steps shall be borne solely by Arion.

(c) From time to time prior to the Closing Date, Arion may provide a written request to Sphinx for (x) the formation of certain wholly-owned Subsidiaries of Sphinx (such Subsidiaries, the “Acquisition Entities”) prior to the Closing or (y) the Transfer of certain Purchased Assets to certain Purchased Entities and/or Acquisition Entities prior to Closing (collectively, the “Requested Sphinx Restructuring Steps” and together with the Sphinx Pre-Closing Restructuring Steps, the “Sphinx Pre-Closing Restructuring”). Sphinx shall use its reasonable best efforts to cooperate with Arion in good faith to form such Acquisition Entities and effect such requested Transfers and other Requested Sphinx Restructuring Steps prior to Closing and shall provide Arion with documents, instruments and other evidence that each of the Purchased Entities are treated as disregarded as an entity separate from its owner under Treasury Regulation §301.7701-3 prior to the Closing Date and that the Sphinx Pre-Closing Restructuring has been consummated in accordance with the Sphinx Pre-Closing Restructuring Steps; provided that (i) Sphinx shall not be required to take any Requested Sphinx Restructuring Steps to the extent that it would violate applicable Law or any Contract of Sphinx or its Subsidiaries and (ii) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses of any kind or character (other than Transfer Taxes, which shall be borne one-half by each of Sphinx and Arion) relating to or arising out of any Requested Sphinx Restructuring Steps shall be borne by Arion.

Section 2.9 Transaction Committee; Integration Costs. Promptly after the Agreement Date, a team consisting of three persons designated by Sphinx and five persons designated by Arion (the “Transaction Committee”) shall be designated as the Transaction Committee of Arion and for the period between the Agreement Date and the Closing Date, shall, among other things, develop and oversee the execution of an integration plan with respect to the Business and Arion Business and take other actions to consummate the Purchase Transactions and establish the operations of Arion following the Closing and combine the Business and the Arion Business and integrate their operations, facilities, employee arrangements, IT infrastructure, insurance and other operational matters, including those matters set forth on Schedule 2.9 of the Arion Disclosure Letter (the “Transaction Committee Activities”). The costs and expenses with respect to the Transaction Committee Activities will be borne by Arion and at or promptly following the Closing, Arion shall reimburse Sphinx for any reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred prior to the Closing to effect the Transaction Committee Activities. Sphinx shall not authorize any Transaction Committee Activities that would incur costs or expenses borne by Arion pursuant to this Section 2.9 without the prior approval of either Arion or the Transaction Committee (including a member thereto appointed by Arion). Until all authorizations, consents and clearances, waivers and approvals of all relevant antitrust authorities under the Antitrust Laws set forth on Section 2.9 have been obtained, the Transaction Committee shall be organized as a “clean team” ensuring that no information is exchanged between the operational divisions of the Parties which would otherwise infringe any restrictions pursuant to any Antitrust Laws.

ARTICLE 3
PURCHASE PRICE

Section 3.1 Purchase Price. The total consideration for the Purchased Shares and the Purchased Assets shall consist of (a) an amount equal to $950,000,000 (the “Base Purchase Price”), which shall be adjusted pursuant to Section 3.2 and Section 3.5 and may be modified pursuant to Section 6.16(g)), payable to Sphinx in the form of cash, (b) the assumption by Arion of the Assumed Liabilities and (c) the issuance by Arion of Arion Common Shares, constituting 30% of the Pro Forma Capitalization (but not giving effect to the Arion Common Shares described in clauses (c) and (e) of the definition of “Pro Forma Capitalization”) (the Arion Common Shares so issued, the “Equity Consideration” and together with clauses (a) and (b), collectively, the “Total Consideration”). In the event Arion shall at any time following the Agreement Date and prior to the earlier of (x) the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Article 10 or (y) the Closing, pay any dividend on Arion Capital Shares by the issuance of additional Arion Preferred Shares or issue any additional Arion Preferred Shares then in each such case, the Equity Consideration shall be appropriately adjusted to provide to Sphinx the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such event.

Section 3.2 Payment of Purchase Price.

(a) On the Closing Date, Arion shall issue the Equity Consideration and pay the Estimated Cash Consideration to Sphinx (for Sphinx’s own account and as agent for any Other Sphinx Entity unless otherwise provided in any Local Transfer Agreement or Sphinx otherwise notifies Arion of such other payee in writing at least two Business Days prior to the Closing). The Estimated Cash Consideration shall be payable in Dollars, in immediately available federal funds and delivered by Arion to such bank account or accounts as shall be designated in writing by Sphinx no later than two Business Days prior to the Closing (or such later time as may be agreed by Sphinx and Arion). Any portion of the Estimated Cash Consideration that is agreed by Arion and Sphinx to be paid in a currency other than Dollars (as allocated pursuant to Section 3.3, as required by applicable Law or otherwise mutually agreed by the Parties) shall be converted from Dollars into the applicable other currency at the Designated Exchange Rate and paid by, or on behalf of, Arion or the applicable Other Arion Entity to Sphinx or the appropriate Other Sphinx Entity by wire transfer to one or more bank accounts designated in writing by Sphinx no later than two Business Days prior to the Closing (or such later time as may be agreed by Sphinx and Arion) in lieu of the payment of such amount in Dollars pursuant to this Section 3.2(a).

(b) No later than three Business Days prior to the anticipated Closing Date, Sphinx shall prepare and deliver to Arion (x) the Closing Balance Sheet (as defined in, and prepared in accordance with the Calculation Principles set forth on, Appendix F) and (y) a written statement (the “Estimated Closing Statement”) setting forth Sphinx’s good faith estimate of: (i) the estimated amount of Business Cash as of the close of business on the Business Day immediately prior to the Closing Date (the “Estimated Business Cash”), (ii) the estimated amount of Business Indebtedness outstanding as of immediately prior to the Closing (the “Estimated Business Indebtedness”), (iii) the estimated amount of Closing Net Working Capital (the “Estimated Closing Net Working Capital”) and the calculation thereof, (iv) the estimated amount of Transaction Expenses (the “Estimated Transaction Expenses”) and (v) the estimated amount of Sphinx Transaction Expenses (the “Estimated Sphinx Transaction Expenses”), in the case of each of clauses (i) through (iii), calculated in accordance with the principles, policies and methodologies set forth on Appendix F (collectively, the “Calculation Principles”), together with, in the case of each of clauses (i) through (v), such supporting documentation used to calculate or determine the foregoing amounts as Arion

may reasonably request. Sphinx shall take into consideration in good faith any comments to the Estimated Closing Statement made by Arion within one Business Day prior to the anticipated Closing Date; provided that Arion shall not have any right to delay Closing or the payment of the Estimated Cash Consideration as a result of any disagreement with such estimates set forth in the Estimated Closing Statement.

(c) No later than three Business Days prior to the anticipated Closing Date, Arion shall prepare and deliver to Sphinx a written statement setting forth Arion’s calculation of the Pro Forma Capitalization.

Section 3.3 Tax Treatment; Allocation of Purchase Price.

(a) For U.S. federal and applicable state income tax purposes, Sphinx and Arion agree to, and agree to cause their Affiliates to, treat the acquisition of the Purchased Shares as the taxable purchase of the assets of the Purchased Entities and the purchase of the Purchased Assets as the taxable purchase of the Purchased Assets.

(b) No later than 20 Business Days prior to Closing, Sphinx shall provide to Arion a preliminary allocation of the Total Consideration (and, for purposes of this Section 3.3 and the other Transaction Documents, the parties agree the Equity Consideration has a fair market value as determined by Sphinx in its sole good faith discretion and as notified in writing by Sphinx to Arion no later than 20 Business Days prior to Closing) payable to Sphinx and each of the Other Sphinx Entities in the case of the Sphinx and the Other Asset Sphinx Entities, allocated based on the fair market value of the assets sold by each of Sphinx and the Other Asset Sphinx Entities and, in the case of the Other Share Sphinx Entities, allocated based on the fair market value of the relevant Purchased Entity sold by such Other Share Sphinx Entity (the “Preliminary Allocation”); provided that prior to delivery of the Preliminary Allocation and from time to time following the Agreement Date and reasonably in advance of the date on which the Preliminary Allocation is delivered, Sphinx shall discuss such Preliminary Allocation with Arion and consider in good faith Arion’s reasonable comments on the Preliminary Allocation and use reasonable best efforts to share with Arion information relevant to the preparation of the Preliminary Allocation, including drafts thereof, as it becomes available. The Preliminary Allocation shall be subject to Arion’s review and approval (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). For purposes of the Transaction Documents, the parties agree that the Equity Consideration shall be used for and allocated to the purchase hereunder by Arion and Other Arion Entities of Purchased Assets and Purchased Entities from Sphinx and the other Subsidiaries of Sphinx that are organized in the United States.

(c) As soon as practicable after the Closing (and in any event within 120 days of the Closing Date), Arion shall deliver to Sphinx a statement (the “Allocation Statement”) that allocates the Total Consideration among the Purchased Shares and the Purchased Assets (and, where appropriate, the assets of any Purchased Entity or Purchased Minority Interest) as of the Effective Time in accordance with the allocation requirements of Section 1060 of the Code (and any other applicable Tax Law) and in a manner consistent with the principles used in the Preliminary Allocation as finally determined under Section 3.3(a). Such Allocation Statement shall be adjusted to reflect any changes to Closing Net Working Capital in accordance with the determination of the Final Closing Net Working Capital under Section 3.5. If, within 30 Business Days after the delivery of the Allocation Statement, Sphinx notifies Arion that Sphinx objects to the allocation set forth in the Allocation Statement, Arion and Sphinx shall seek in good faith to resolve such dispute within 30 Business Days. In the event that Arion and Sphinx are unable to resolve such dispute within 30

Business Days, Sphinx and Arion shall jointly retain, and cooperate in good faith with a mutually agreed, nationally recognized independent public accounting firm as shall be mutually agreed by the Parties (the “Independent Accountant”) to resolve the disputed items. Upon resolution of the disputed items, the allocation reflected in the Allocation Statement shall be adjusted to reflect such resolution. The fees and expenses of the Independent Accountant shall be allocated to be paid by Arion and Sphinx in inverse proportion as they may each prevail on matters resolved by the Independent Accountant, which proportionate allocations shall also be determined by the Independent Accountant at the time the determination of the Independent Accountant is rendered on the merits of the matters submitted. In the event that Sphinx notifies Arion that it accepts the Allocation Statement, or does not notify Arion of any objections to the Allocation Statement during such 30 Business Day period, Sphinx shall be considered to have accepted the accuracy of the Allocation Statement delivered by Arion and such Allocation Statement shall be final, conclusive and binding upon the Parties. Any adjustments to the Total Consideration paid by Arion in consideration for the sale and purchase of the Purchased Shares and the Purchased Assets (including any adjustments made pursuant to Section 3.2 and Section 3.5) shall be reflected in the Allocation Statement in a manner consistent with Section 1060 of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder (and any other similar provisions under applicable Tax Law) and as mutually agreed by the Parties (it being understood that no Party will unreasonably withhold, condition or delay such agreement).

(d) For all Tax purposes, Sphinx and Arion (x) agree to report the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in a manner consistent with the Allocation Statement and (y) will not take any position inconsistent therewith in any Tax Return in any audit or refund claim, in any litigation or otherwise, in each case with respect to a Taxing Authority, unless required to do so by a Taxing Authority pursuant to the resolution of a Tax contest in which the Allocation Statement has been defended diligently and in good faith. Sphinx and Arion shall each be responsible for the preparation of their own Section 1060 statements and forms in accordance with applicable Tax Laws and in a manner consistent with the Allocation Statement, and each shall execute and deliver to each other such statements and forms as are reasonably requested by the other Party. In the event that the Allocation Statement is disputed by any Taxing Authority, (i) the Party receiving notice of the dispute shall promptly notify the other Party of such notice and (ii) both Sphinx and Arion shall use reasonable efforts to defend the Allocation Statement in any Proceedings or settle such dispute in a manner mutually acceptable to Sphinx and Arion.

Section 3.4 Title Passage; Delivery of Purchased Shares and Purchased Assets.

(a) Title Passage. Upon the Closing (or, with respect to a Separate Transfer Business, the Separate Transfer Date), all of the right, title and interest of Sphinx and the Other Sphinx Entities, (including any risk of loss) in and to all of the Purchased Shares and the Purchased Assets shall pass to Arion; provided that Arion may elect (by prior written notice to Sphinx reasonably in advance of the Closing and in no event later than 45 days after the Agreement Date (provided that if the Closing has not occurred within 120 days after the Agreement Date, such notice may be delivered no later than 30 days prior to the date which Sphinx and Arion mutually determine in good faith is the anticipated Closing Date) to require Sphinx or an Other Sphinx Entity to convey any of the Purchased Shares and the Purchased Assets to an Other Arion Entity rather than to Arion. Sphinx or such Other Sphinx Entity, as applicable, shall comply with any such election by delivering to Arion or an Other Arion Entity, as applicable, (i)(A) to the extent that such Purchased Shares are in certificated form, certificates evidencing the Purchased Shares duly endorsed in blank or with stock powers duly executed in proper form for transfer or other procedure required by applicable Law, (B) to the extent

that such Purchased Shares are not in certificated form, stock powers or other instruments of transfer duly executed in blank, and in either case with any required stock transfer stamps affixed thereto and (C) in either case, any short-form equity transfer agreements, forms, notarial deeds, instruments or other similar documents necessary to transfer to Arion or the applicable Other Arion Entity the Purchased Shares in accordance with the Laws of the jurisdiction of organization, incorporation or formation of such Purchased Entities or Purchased Minority Interests, in each case in a form mutually acceptable to the Parties (the items described in clauses (A) through (C), collectively, the “Equity Transfer Documents”); provided that, with respect to Purchased Minority Interests, Sphinx or such Other Sphinx Entity, as applicable, shall only be obligated to deliver such transfer documents or instruments reasonably available to it and shall not be required to use any efforts to obtain additional documentation from the Business Entities associated with such Purchased Minority Interests, (ii) possession of such Purchased Assets and (iii) any other certificates, forms, deeds, transfer agreements or instruments required pursuant to any Transaction Document to convey to Arion or an Other Arion Entity, as applicable, valid, good and marketable title to all of the Purchased Shares and the Purchased Assets, free and clear of all Liens, other than Sphinx Permitted Liens; provided that Sphinx and the Other Sphinx Entities shall not be required to comply with such election of Arion to the extent that Sphinx reasonably determines in good faith that doing so would (x) violate applicable Law or any contractual obligation of Sphinx or its Subsidiaries, (y) reasonably be expected to prevent, impede or delay or make less likely to occur the consummation of the Purchase Transactions or the other transactions contemplated hereby or by the other Transaction Documents (or the satisfaction of the conditions in Article 7) or (z) impose unreasonable costs (including Taxes) on Sphinx and its Subsidiaries which would be an Excluded Liability and for which it would not be entitled to reimbursement under this Agreement; provided further that, the Parties acknowledge and agree that clause (z) of the foregoing proviso shall not apply, and Sphinx shall comply with Arion’s election, with respect to the jurisdictions set forth on Section 3.4 of the Arion Disclosure Letter. Sphinx shall bear all costs and expenses arising from the actions contemplated by this Section 3.4(a), other than Transfer Taxes (which shall be borne one-half by each of Arion and Sphinx).

(b) Method of Delivery of Purchased Shares and Purchased Assets. The Purchased Shares and the Purchased Assets shall be delivered to Arion or an Other Arion Entity, as applicable, in the form and to the location mutually agreed by the Parties before the Closing Date at Sphinx’s cost and expense (other than with respect to Transfer Taxes, which shall be borne one-half by each of Arion and Sphinx); provided that, to the extent practicable, Sphinx shall deliver all of the Purchased Assets through electronic delivery or in another manner reasonably calculated and legally permitted to minimize or avoid the incurrence of any Transfer Taxes if such method of delivery does not adversely affect costs (including Taxes) of Sphinx and its Subsidiaries or the condition, operability or usefulness of any Purchased Asset.

Section 3.5 Post-Closing Net Working Capital Adjustment; Other Adjustment.

(a) As promptly as practicable and in any event within 60 Business Days following the Closing Date, Arion shall prepare and deliver to Sphinx a written statement (the “Closing Statement”) which will set forth Arion’s calculation of (i) the amount of Business Cash as of the close of business on the Business Day immediately prior to the Closing Date (the “Closing Business Cash”), (ii) the amount of Business Indebtedness outstanding as of immediately prior to the Closing (the “Closing Business Indebtedness”), (iii) the amount of Closing Net Working Capital, including the calculation thereof, (iv) the amount of Transaction Expenses (the “Closing Transaction Expenses”) and (v) the amount of Sphinx Transaction Expenses (the “Closing Sphinx Transaction Expenses”). The items set forth on the Closing Statement shall be prepared in accordance with the Calculation Principles

and this Agreement. With respect to any items and amounts in the Estimated Closing Statement that are not disputed by Arion in the Closing Statement, Arion shall be deemed to have agreed with such items and amounts in the Estimated Closing Statement and such items and amounts shall be final, conclusive and binding upon the Parties.

(b) From the Closing Date through the Determination Date, Arion shall give, and shall direct its Affiliates, representatives and auditors to give, Sphinx and its Subsidiaries, and its representatives and auditors, upon reasonable notice all such reasonable access (including electronic access, to the extent available) during normal business hours (or such other times as the Parties may agree) and in a manner that does not materially interfere with the conduct of Arion’s or its Subsidiaries’ business or operations, as Sphinx may reasonably require to the books and records of the Business and to the appropriate Business Employees and other personnel or representatives of Arion (including finance personnel) for purposes of evaluating the Closing Statement and the adjustments and determinations contemplated therein.

(c) Within 45 Business Days after Sphinx’s receipt of the Closing Statement, Sphinx shall notify Arion whether it accepts or disputes the accuracy of the Closing Statement. In the event that Sphinx disputes the accuracy of the Closing Statement, Sphinx shall deliver a written notice to Arion specifying in reasonable detail those items and amounts as to which Sphinx disagrees and setting forth Sphinx’s calculation of such disputed amounts (a “Dispute Notice”) and Sphinx shall be deemed to have agreed with all other items and amounts contained in the Closing Statement. In the event that Sphinx notifies Arion that it accepts the Closing Statement, or does not deliver a Dispute Notice to Arion, during such 45 Business Day period, Sphinx shall be considered to have accepted the accuracy of the Closing Statement delivered by Arion and such Closing Statement shall be final, conclusive and binding upon the Parties.

(d) If a Dispute Notice shall be timely delivered by Sphinx pursuant to Section 3.5(c), Sphinx and Arion shall, during the 20 Business Days following such delivery (as such time period may be extended by the mutual agreement of the Parties), seek in good faith to reach agreement on the disputed items and amounts. If Arion and Sphinx resolve their differences over the disputed items in the Closing Statement in accordance with the foregoing procedure, the Closing Statement shall be revised to reflect such resolution and the amount of the Closing Business Indebtedness, the Closing Business Cash, the Closing Net Working Capital, the Closing Transaction Expenses and the Closing Sphinx Transaction Expenses agreed upon by Sphinx and Arion reflected in such revised Closing Statement shall be final, conclusive and binding on the Parties.

(e) If the Parties fail to resolve their differences over the disputed items and amounts in the Closing Statement within such 20 Business Day period, then Arion and Sphinx shall forthwith jointly request that the Independent Accountant, make a binding determination only as to the disputed items and amounts in the Closing Statement in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The Independent Accountant will under the terms of its engagement have no more than 20 Business Days from the date of referral within which to render its written decision with respect to such disputed items and amounts. The Independent Accountant shall consider only those items or amounts in the Closing Statement as to which Sphinx and Arion have failed to reach agreement. The Independent Accountant shall deliver to Sphinx and Arion a written report setting forth its adjustments, if any, to the Closing Statement based on the Independent Accountant’s determination with respect to the disputed items and amounts in accordance with this Agreement (including the definitions herein) and the Calculation Principles and such report shall include the calculations supporting such adjustments; provided that the Independent Accountant may not assign a value to any item greater

than the greatest value for such item claimed by either Party or less than the smallest value for such item claimed by one of the Parties, in the case of Arion, in the Closing Statement or in the case of Sphinx, in the Dispute Notice. Such report shall be final, conclusive and binding on the Parties, absent fraud or manifest error. The fees and expenses of the Independent Accountant shall be allocated to be paid by Arion and Sphinx in inverse proportion as they may each prevail on matters resolved by the Independent Accountant, which proportionate allocations shall also be determined by the Independent Accountant at the time the determination of the Independent Accountant is rendered on the merits of the matters submitted.

(f) The date on which the Closing Statement is finally determined in accordance with this Section 3.5 shall be referred to as the “Determination Date”, the Closing Statement as so finally determined shall be referred to as the “Final Closing Statement” and each of the Closing Business Cash, the Closing Business Indebtedness, the Closing Net Working Capital, the Closing Transaction Expenses and the Closing Sphinx Transaction Expenses, as so finally determined in the Final Closing Statement, shall be referred to as the “Final Business Cash”, the “Final Business Indebtedness”, the “Final Closing Net Working Capital”, the “Final Transaction Expenses”, and the “Final Sphinx Transaction Expenses”, respectively. As used herein, (i) the “Final Working Capital Adjustment Amount” shall mean, (A) if the amount of the Final Closing Net Working Capital is greater than the Closing Net Working Capital Upper Collar, the dollar amount of such difference (expressed as a positive number) and (B) if the amount of the Final Closing Net Working Capital is less than the Closing Net Working Capital Lower Collar, the dollar amount of such difference (expressed as a negative number), and (ii) the “Final Cash Consideration” shall mean an amount equal to the sum of (A) the Purchase Price, plus (B) the Final Business Cash, minus (C) the Final Business Indebtedness, plus (D) the Final Working Capital Adjustment Amount, plus (E) the Final Transaction Expenses, minus (F) the Final Sphinx Transaction Expenses.

(g) Within five Business Days following the Determination Date, (i) if the Estimated Cash Consideration exceeds the Final Cash Consideration (the amount of such excess, the “Negative Adjustment Amount”), Sphinx shall pay to Arion the Negative Adjustment Amount or (ii) if the Final Cash Consideration exceeds the Estimated Cash Consideration (the amount of such excess, the “Positive Adjustment Amount”), Arion shall pay Sphinx the Positive Adjustment Amount. Any payment by Sphinx or Arion under this Section 3.5(g) shall be payable in Dollars in immediately available federal funds and delivered to such bank account or accounts as shall be designated in writing by Arion or Sphinx, as the case may be, and such payments shall be accompanied by interest at a fixed annual rate equal to the rate of interest from time to time announced publicly by J.P.

Except for fee letters (the “Fee Letters”) with respect to fees and related arrangements with respect to the Debt Financing, of which Arion has delivered true, accurate and complete copies to Sphinx on or prior to the Agreement Date, the Debt Financing Commitment is the only agreement relating to the Debt Financing as of the Agreement Date. Other than as expressly set forth in such Debt

Financing Commitment, the Fee Letters and customary engagement letters and fee rebate letters, there are no other agreements, side letters, or arrangements relating to the Debt Financing Commitment that could adversely affect the amount, availability or conditionality of the Debt Financing as contemplated by the Debt Financing Commitment.

(c) As of the Agreement Date, assuming the accuracy of Sphinx’s Fundamental Representations (other than Section 4.15(b)) and the representations and warranties set forth in Section 4.11, no event has occurred which, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, would constitute a default or breach on the part of Arion under any term or condition of the Debt Financing Commitment or, to the knowledge of Arion, would (i) make any of the assumptions or any of the statements set forth in the Debt Financing Commitment inaccurate in any material respect, (ii) result in any of the conditions in the Debt Financing Commitment not being satisfied or (iii) otherwise result in the Debt Financing not being available on the Closing Date. As of the Agreement Date, no Debt Financing Source party to the Debt Financing Commitment has notified Arion of its intention to terminate the Debt Financing Commitment or not to provide the Debt Financing. Assuming satisfaction of the conditions in Section 7.1 and Section 7.3, and the accuracy of Sphinx’s Fundamental Representations (other than Section 4.15(b)) and the representations and warranties set forth in Section 4.11, as of the Agreement Date, Arion has no reason to believe that any of the conditions in the Debt Financing Commitment will fail to be satisfied on a timely basis or that the full amounts committed pursuant to the Debt Financing Commitment will not be available to be funded at the Closing.

(d) Arion has fully paid (or caused to be paid) any and all commitment fees or other fees required by the Debt Financing Commitment to be paid on or before the Agreement Date. The aggregate proceeds from the Debt Financing constitute all of the financing required for the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including the Prepayment) and, when taken together with the Arion Cash held by Arion Opco as of the Closing Date (after giving effect to any Affiliate Payments that have not been irrevocably waived), are sufficient in amount for Arion to pay the Estimated Cash Consideration, fund the Post-Closing Operating Cash, pay the Arion Transaction Expenses and pay all other associated fees, costs and expenses in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Required Amount”). The Debt Financing Commitment contains all of the conditions precedent to the obligations of the parties thereunder to make the Debt Financing available to Arion on the terms and subject only to the conditions set forth therein.

(e) Arion’s obligation to consummate the Purchase Transactions is not contingent on Arion’s ability to obtain any financing, including pursuant to the Debt Financing Commitment.

Section 5.13 Employees; Employee Benefits.

(a) Except as described in Schedule 5.13(b) of the Arion Disclosure Letter, there is not, and for the past three years there has not been: (i) any strike, material grievance, arbitration, slowdown, picketing, work stoppage or material labor dispute related to, or involving, employees working in the Arion Business, and to the knowledge of Arion, none are threatened; (ii) any collective bargaining agreement, works council or labor Contract related to or otherwise applicable to the Arion Business or employees working in the Arion Business; and (iii) to the knowledge of Arion, any union organization effort with respect to the Arion Business or employees working in the Arion Business and none are threatened.

(b) With respect to each Arion Benefit Plan intended to qualify under Section 401(a) of the Code, such Arion Benefit Plan is so qualified, and has timely received a determination letter, advisory or opinion letter from the U.S. Internal Revenue Service, and no act or omission has occurred which could reasonably be expected to adversely affect such Arion Benefit Plan’s qualification. Each Arion Benefit Plan and each related trust, insurance Contract and fund has been established, maintained, funded, and administered in accordance with its terms and complies in form and in operation in all material respects with applicable Law. None of Arion, any of its Subsidiaries nor, to the knowledge of Arion, any other Person has engaged in any transaction, including any nonexempt “prohibited transactions” as such term is defined in Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code or any breach of fiduciary duty (as determined under ERISA) with respect to any Arion Benefit Plan that would subject Arion or any of its Affiliates to any Tax, Liability or penalty (civil or otherwise). No Proceedings, audits, investigations or claims are pending (other than routine undisputed claims for benefits), or to the knowledge of Arion, threatened with respect to any Arion Benefit Plan.

(c) None of Arion, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their ERISA Affiliates, nor any predecessor thereof, sponsors, maintains or contributes to, or in the past six years prior to the Agreement Date has sponsored, maintained or contributed to, and no Arion Benefit Plan is or was, a multiemployer plan within the meaning of Section 3(37) of ERISA or a defined benefit plan within the meaning of Section 3(35) of ERISA that, in each case, could reasonably be expected to result in the imposition of any Liability to Arion or any of its Affiliates. None of Arion, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective ERISA Affiliates has incurred any unsatisfied Liability (including withdrawal Liability) under, and no circumstances exist that could reasonably be expected to result in any Liability to Arion, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their ERISA Affiliates under, Title IV of ERISA or Section 412 of the Code or Section 302 of ERISA that could become a Liability on Arion or any of its Affiliates, including as a consequence of at any time being considered a single employer under Section 414 of the Code with any other Person.

(d) Neither Arion nor any of its Subsidiaries has any Liability to provide or has any Liability with respect to an obligation to provide, medical, dental or life insurance coverage or any other welfare benefits after termination of employment in respect of any Arion Employees, except as may be required under foreign Law, Section 4980 of the Code for which the recipient pays the full cost of coverage.

(e) Each Arion Benefit Plan that constitutes a “nonqualified deferred compensation plan” (as defined in Section 409A(d)(1) of the Code) has been operated and maintained, in form and operation, in accordance in all material respects with Section 409A of the Code and applicable guidance of the Department of Treasury and Revenue Services; no amount with respect to any Arion Employee under any such Arion Benefit Plan is or has been subject to the interest and additional tax set forth under Section 409A(1)(B) of the Code; and none of Arion or any of its Subsidiaries has any obligation to any Arion Employee to gross-up, indemnify or otherwise reimburse any Arion Employee with respect to any Tax, including under Sections 409A or 4999 of the Code.

Section 5.14 Real Property.

(a) Schedule 5.14(a) of the Arion Disclosure Letter sets forth a list, as of the Agreement Date, of the real property owned or leased by Arion or any of its Subsidiaries (the “Arion Business Real Property”). Each of Arion and its Subsidiaries, as applicable, has good and valid leasehold interests in or good, marketable, indefeasible fee simple title to, as applicable, all its Arion Business

Real Property (in each case, other than those assets and interests disposed of since the Agreement Date in the ordinary course of business and in accordance with this Agreement) free and clear of any Liens other than Arion Permitted Liens. All leases, subleases or other similar Contracts in respect of an Arion Business Real Property are in full force and effect, constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of Arion or its Subsidiaries, as applicable, and to the knowledge of Arion, the other parties thereto, and such Contracts are enforceable in accordance with their respective terms, subject, as to enforceability, to bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium and other similar Laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally, and general equitable principles, except as would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Arion Material Adverse Effect. There exists no breach, default or event of default (or occurrence or event that with notice or lapse of time or both would result in a breach, default or event of default) under any lease, sublease or other similar Contract in respect of an Arion Business Real Property by Arion or any of its Subsidiaries or, to the knowledge of Arion as of the Agreement Date, any other party thereto, except as would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to be material to the Arion Business.

(b) Except as would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to be material to the Arion Business, none of Arion or any of its Subsidiaries has within the three years prior to the Agreement Date given to or received from any other Person any written notice (i) regarding any actual, alleged, possible, or potential breach of, or default under, any lease agreement in respect of any Arion Business Real Property or (ii) announcing or threatening termination or cancellation of any lease agreement in respect of any Arion Business Real Property.

(c) Except as set forth on Schedule 5.14(c) of the Arion Disclosure Letter or as would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to be material to the Arion Business, as of the Agreement Date (i) there are no condemnation or eminent domain proceedings or compulsory purchase pending or, to the knowledge of Arion, threatened that would interfere with the present use of the Arion Business Real Property, and (ii) none of Arion or any of its Subsidiaries has leased, subleased or licensed to any Person any Arion Business Real Property to any Person.

Section 5.15 Absence of Certain Developments. Except for actions taken to effect the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and any other Transaction Documents, from March 31, 2017 through the Agreement Date, (a) there has not been any Effect that, individually or in the aggregate, has had or would reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, an Arion Material Adverse Effect, (b) the Arion Business has been conducted in the ordinary course consistent with past practice in all material respects and (c) none of Arion or any of its Subsidiaries has taken any action that would, if taken by Arion or any of its Subsidiaries from the Agreement Date through the Closing Date, require the consent of Sphinx under Section 6.2(a).

Section 5.16 Finders; Brokers. None of Arion or any of its Affiliates has employed any finder or broker in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement who would have a claim for a fee or commission from Sphinx, and no broker, finder or investment banker is entitled to any brokerage, finders or other fee or commission from Sphinx in connection with the negotiation, execution or delivery of this Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents or the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby based on arrangements made by or on behalf of Arion or any of its Affiliates.

Section 5.17 Solvency. Assuming that the representations and warranties in Article 4 are true and correct, that Sphinx has complied with its respective obligations under this Agreement, the funding of the Debt Financing has been consummated in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Debt Financing

Commitment on the Closing Date and that the most recent financial forecasts made available to Arion by Sphinx prior to the Agreement Date have been prepared in good faith based upon assumptions that were and continue to be reasonable and immediately prior to the Closing (provided that Sphinx is making no representation and warranty with respect to such financial forecasts), at and immediately after the Closing, and after giving effect to the transactions contemplated hereunder (including any financings being entered into in connection therewith), Arion and its Subsidiaries (including the Purchased Entities), taken as a whole, on a consolidated basis, will be Solvent.

Section 5.18 Limited Guarantee. Concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, each of the Guarantors has delivered to Sphinx the Limited Guarantee in the forms attached hereto as Exhibit G. The Limited Guarantees are in full force and effect and are valid, legal, binding and enforceable obligations of each such Guarantor, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms except as enforceability may be affected by bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium and other similar Laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally, and general equitable principles. No event has occurred which, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, would constitute a default or breach on the part of any Guarantor under the Limited Guarantee. Nothing in this Section 5.18 shall be construed to limit in any way Sphinx’s right to seek an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement as contemplated by Section 11.7.

Section 5.19 Securities Act. Arion and the Other Arion Entities are acquiring the Purchased Shares solely for the purpose of investment and not with a view to, or for sale in connection with, any distribution thereof. Arion acknowledges that the Purchased Shares are not registered under the Securities Act, any applicable state securities Laws or any applicable foreign securities Laws, and that such Purchased Shares may not be transferred or sold except pursuant to the registration provisions of the Securities Act or applicable foreign securities Laws or pursuant to an applicable exemption therefrom and pursuant to applicable state securities Laws. Arion (either alone or together with its advisors) has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial and business matters so as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of its investment in the Purchased Shares and is capable of bearing the economic risks of such investment.

Section 5.20 Affiliate Transactions. Except with respect to employee or director compensation (including incentive equity compensation) and benefits and as otherwise set forth on Schedule 5.20 of the Arion Disclosure Letter, none of Arion or any of its Subsidiaries, and no present or former director, officer, employee or Affiliate of Arion or any of its Subsidiaries, directly or indirectly, is or will be after the Effective Time, a party to any material transaction, contract, agreement, arrangement or understanding with, or binding upon, the Arion Business or has any material interest in any material property or assets owned or used by the Arion Business.

Section 5.21 Independent Investigation. Arion has conducted its own independent investigation, review and analysis of the business, operations, assets, liabilities, results of operations, financial condition, software, technology and prospects of the Business, which investigation, review and analysis was done by Arion and its Affiliates and representatives. Except for the representations and warranties contained in Article 4 (subject to the disclosures in the Sphinx Disclosure Letter) and in the Transaction Documents, Arion acknowledges and agrees that (a) in entering into this Agreement, it has relied solely upon the aforementioned investigation, review and analysis and not on any factual representations or opinions of Sphinx or its representatives and (b) none of Sphinx, any Other Sphinx Entity, or any Subsidiaries or Affiliates of Sphinx nor any other Person makes any other express, implied or statutory representation or warranty with respect to the Business, the Purchased Assets, the Assumed Liabilities or otherwise, including any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, enforceability or noninfringement or any projections, estimates and budgets for the Business. Arion acknowledges that there are assumptions

inherent in making any such projections, estimates and budgets, Arion is familiar with such uncertainties and that Arion is responsible for making its own evaluation of the Business and shall have no claim against Sphinx with respect thereto. Except for the indemnification obligations of Sphinx set forth in Article 9 hereof, neither Sphinx (including all officers and employees of Sphinx) nor any Affiliate of Sphinx (including all officers and employees of such Affiliate) will have or be subject to any Liability or indemnification obligation to Arion or any other Person for any information provided to Arion or its representatives relating to the Business, the Purchased Shares, the Purchased Assets, the Assumed Liabilities or otherwise in expectation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including any information, document, or material made available to Arion or its counsel or other representatives in Arion’s due diligence review, including in “data rooms” (electronic or otherwise) or management presentations.

All requests for access to the offices, properties, books and records of Sphinx and its Subsidiaries shall be made to such Representatives of Sphinx as Sphinx shall designate, who shall be solely responsible for coordinating all such requests and all access permitted hereunder. It is further agreed that neither Arion nor any of its Affiliates, agents or Representatives acting on its behalf shall contact any of the employees (other than the individuals set forth on Schedule 6.3 of the Sphinx Disclosure Letter), customers, suppliers or partners of Sphinx or any of its Subsidiaries in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, whether in person or by telephone, electronic or other mail or other means of communication, without the specific prior authorization of such Representatives of Sphinx (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed); provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing shall not limit or restrict Arion, its Subsidiaries or Affiliates from communicating with any such Person in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither Sphinx nor any of its Subsidiaries shall be required to (i) provide access to or disclose information where such access or disclosure would reasonably be expected to cause the waiver of any attorney-client privilege of Sphinx or such Subsidiaries or contravene any Law or binding agreement of Sphinx or such Subsidiaries (provided that Sphinx shall inform Arion as to the general nature of what is being withheld as a result of the foregoing and shall use its reasonable efforts to disclose such information in a way that would not waive such privilege or contravene any applicable Law or binding agreement), (ii) provide access to or disclose any document, communication or information related to the sale process with respect to the Business or any other potential transaction relating to the sale or divestiture of the Business, other than as provided in Section 6.20, (iii) provide access to personnel records of the Business Employees, including records relating to individual performance or evaluation records medical histories or other information that Sphinx believes in good faith is sensitive information relating to personnel or the disclosure of which would reasonably be expected to subject Sphinx or any of its Subsidiaries to risk of liability (provided that Sphinx shall inform Arion as to the general nature of what is being withheld as a result of the foregoing and shall use its reasonable efforts to disclose such information in a way that would not result in the sharing of sensitive information or reasonably risk liability) or (iv) provide access to any property of Sphinx or its Subsidiaries for purposes of conducting any invasive subsurface environmental sampling or testing without prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(b) The Parties expressly acknowledge and agree that this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and their respective terms and all information, whether written or oral, furnished by either Party to the other Party or any Affiliate of such other Party, in connection with the negotiation of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents or pursuant to this Section 6.3 shall be treated as “Confidential Information” of such Party under that certain Confidentiality Agreement dated September 15, 2016 between the Parties (as amended or modified from time to time, the “Confidentiality Agreement”).

(c) Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, Sphinx shall hold and shall cause its Subsidiaries to hold, and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause its Representatives to hold, in strict confidence and not to disclose, release or use (except as may be necessary to enforce its rights as described in clause (iii) below, in connection with the performance of its obligations under this Agreement, the preparation of any Tax Returns required to be filed by it or as set forth in clause (A) of the final proviso of clause (xi) of Appendix A) without the prior written consent of Arion, any and all Confidential Information related to Arion, the Purchased Assets, the Purchased Shares, the Assumed Liabilities and/or the Business; provided that Sphinx may disclose, or may permit disclosure of, such information (i) to its Representatives who have a need to know such information for a purpose not prohibited by this Section 6.3(c) and

are informed of their obligation to hold such information confidential to the same extent as is applicable to Sphinx and in respect of whose failure to comply with such obligations Sphinx will be responsible, (ii) if Sphinx, its Subsidiaries or its Representatives are required to disclose any such information pursuant to applicable Law or pursuant to the applicable rules and regulations of any national securities exchange applicable to listed companies or (iii) in connection with the enforcement of any right or remedy relating to this Agreement or any other Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, in the event that any demand or request for disclosure of such confidential and proprietary information is made pursuant to clause (ii) above, Sphinx shall to the extent practicable and permissible promptly notify Arion of the existence of such request or demand and shall provide Arion a reasonable opportunity to seek an appropriate protective order or other remedy (and cooperate with Arion with respect thereto, at Arion’s sole cost and expense), and in the event such protective order or other remedy is not obtained, Sphinx may disclose such confidential and proprietary information without Liability hereunder, but shall furnish only that portion of such confidential and proprietary information that Sphinx is advised by legal counsel it is legally required to disclose and shall, to the extent requested by Arion, exercise reasonable efforts, at Arion’s sole cost and expense, to preserve the confidentiality of such information. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, this Section 6.3(c) shall not apply to information to the extent relating to the Excluded Assets, Excluded Liabilities or Sphinx’s or its Subsidiaries’ businesses other than the Business.

(d) Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, Arion shall hold and shall cause its Subsidiaries to hold, and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause its Representatives to hold, in strict confidence and not to disclose, release or use (except as may be necessary to enforce its rights as described in clause (iii) below, in connection with the performance of its obligations under this Agreement or preparation of any Tax Returns required to be filed by it) without the prior written consent of Sphinx, any and all Confidential Information related to the Excluded Assets, the Excluded Liabilities and/or the businesses of Sphinx (other than the Business); provided, that Arion may disclose, or may permit disclosure of, such information (i) to its Representatives who have a need to know such information for a purpose not prohibited by this Section 6.3(d) and are informed of their obligation to hold such information confidential to the same extent as is applicable to Arion and in respect of whose failure to comply with such obligations Arion will be responsible, (ii) if Arion, its Affiliates or its Representatives are required to disclose any such information pursuant to applicable Law or pursuant to the applicable rules and regulations of any national securities exchange applicable to listed companies or (iii) in connection with the enforcement of any right or remedy relating to this Agreement or any other Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, in the event that any demand or request for disclosure of such confidential and proprietary information is made pursuant to clause (ii) above, Arion shall to the extent practicable and permissible promptly notify Sphinx of the existence of such request or demand and shall provide Sphinx a reasonable opportunity to seek an appropriate protective order or other remedy (and cooperate with Sphinx with respect thereto, at Sphinx’s sole cost and expense), and in the event such protective order or other remedy is not obtained, Arion may disclose such confidential and proprietary information without Liability hereunder, but shall furnish only that portion of such confidential and proprietary information that Arion is advised by legal counsel it is legally required to disclose and shall, to the extent requested by Sphinx, exercise reasonable efforts, at Sphinx’s sole cost and expense, to preserve the confidentiality of such information. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, this Section 6.3(d) shall not apply to information to the extent relating to the Business, the Purchased Assets, Purchased Shares, Purchased Entities, Purchased Minority Interests or the Assumed Liabilities.

Section 6.4 Necessary Efforts; No Inconsistent Action.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and to applicable Law, Sphinx and Arion agree, and Arion and Sphinx agree to cause their respective Subsidiaries, to use their respective reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to use their respective reasonable best efforts to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and to use their respective reasonable best efforts to cause the conditions to each Party’s obligation to close the transactions contemplated hereby as set forth in Article 7 to be satisfied as promptly as practicable, including using their respective reasonable best efforts to take all actions necessary (i) to obtain all Consents, licenses, certificates, permits, approvals, clearances, expirations, consents, waivers or terminations of applicable waiting periods, authorizations, qualifications and orders of any Governmental Authority (each a “Governmental Consent”) or other Persons, including with respect to any Assigned Contracts, required in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, except, in the case of a Consent of a Person other than a Governmental Authority, as requested by Arion (it being understood that the failure to obtain any such Consents contemplated by this Section 6.4(a) shall not, by itself, cause the conditions set forth in Section 7.2(b) or Section 7.3(b) to be deemed not to be satisfied), (ii) to cause the Investors to use reasonable best efforts to effect all such necessary registrations and filings with the Governmental Authorities in order to consummate and make effective the Purchase Transactions and the other transactions contemplated hereby, (iii) to comply with all requirements under applicable Law which may be imposed on it with respect to this Agreement and the Purchase Transactions and (iv) to defend any Proceedings, whether judicial or administrative, brought under, pursuant to or relating to any regulatory Law challenging this Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The Parties shall cooperate fully with each other to the extent necessary in connection with the foregoing; provided that, except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement, neither Arion nor Sphinx will be required to make any payments (other than filing fees), incur any Liability, or offer or grant any accommodation (financial or otherwise) to any third party in connection with obtaining any Consent of any Person.

(b) In connection with the efforts referenced in Section 6.4(a) and without limiting the generality of the undertaking pursuant thereto, Arion and Sphinx shall (and, in the case of Arion, shall cause the Investors or other Person(s) controlling Arion to) promptly make all filings which may be required for the satisfaction of the condition set forth in Section 7.1(b) by each of them in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, which, in any event, shall be made within (i) 15 Business Days following the Agreement Date with respect to the initial filings required under the HSR Act and (ii) 15 Business Days following the Agreement Date with respect to the initial filings required by all other applicable Antitrust Laws or such filings and notifications as may be required under the FATA. In addition, Arion and Sphinx agree, and shall cause each of their respective Subsidiaries, to cooperate and to use their respective reasonable best efforts to take all actions necessary to obtain any Governmental Consents required for the Closing as contemplated by Section 6.4(a) above as promptly as possible, including causing the Investors to use reasonable best efforts to make all other necessary filings, notifications or registrations to obtain all such Governmental Consents within the time periods specified in the preceding sentence, to respond as promptly as practicable to any requests for information from any such Governmental Authority, and to contest and resist any action, including any legislative, administrative or judicial action, and to have vacated, lifted, reversed or overturned any decree, judgment, injunction or other order (whether temporary, preliminary or permanent) (an “Antitrust Order”) that restricts, prevents

or prohibits the consummation of the Purchase Transactions or any other transaction contemplated by this Agreement under any Antitrust Law. Each Party shall furnish to the other, and Arion shall cause the Investors to furnish, such necessary information and assistance as the other Party may reasonably request in connection with the preparation of any necessary filings or submissions by it to any such Governmental Authority. Neither Party shall consent to any voluntary extension of any statutory deadline or withdraw its notification and report form pursuant to the HSR Act or any other filing made pursuant to any Antitrust Law or other regulatory Law with respect to the Purchase Transactions or any other transaction contemplated by this Agreement unless the other Party has given its prior written consent to such extension or delay (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(c) Arion and Sphinx will consult and cooperate with one another, and consider in good faith the views of one another, in connection with, and provide to the other in advance (to the extent legally permissible), any analyses, presentations, memoranda, briefs, arguments, opinions and proposals made or submitted by or on behalf of any Party hereto in connection with Proceedings under or relating to any Antitrust Laws. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in connection with this Agreement, the Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, the Parties agree, except as prohibited or restricted by applicable Law, to (i) give each other reasonable advance notice of all meetings with any Governmental Authority relating to any Antitrust Laws, (ii) give each other an opportunity to participate in each of such meetings, (iii) give each other reasonable advance notice of all substantive oral communications with any Governmental Authority relating to any Antitrust Laws, (iv) if any Governmental Authority initiates a substantive oral communication regarding any Antitrust Laws, promptly notify the other Party of the substance of such communication, (v) provide each other with a reasonable advance opportunity to review and comment upon all written communications (including any analyses, presentations, memoranda, briefs, arguments, opinions and proposals) with a Governmental Authority regarding any Antitrust Laws and (vi) provide each other with copies of all written communications from any Governmental Authority relating to any Antitrust Laws. Any disclosures or provision of copies by one Party to the other may be made on an outside counsel basis, if appropriate. Except as prohibited or restricted by applicable Law, each Party or its attorneys shall provide the other Party or its attorneys the opportunity to make copies of all correspondence, filings or communications (or memoranda setting forth the substance thereof) between such Party or its representatives, on the one hand, and any Governmental Authority, on the other hand, with respect to this Agreement, the Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

(d) Except as prohibited or restricted by applicable Law, each of Arion and Sphinx shall notify and keep the other reasonably advised as to (i) any material communication from any Governmental Authority regarding any of the transactions contemplated hereby and (ii) any litigation or administrative Proceeding pending and known to such Party, or to its knowledge threatened, which challenges, or would challenge, the transactions contemplated hereby and subject to the provisions of Article 10 hereof, Sphinx and Arion shall not take any action inconsistent with their obligations under this Agreement or, without prejudice to Sphinx’s or Arion’s rights under this Agreement, that would reasonably be expected to materially hinder or delay the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any other Transaction Document.

(e) If any objections are asserted with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby under any Antitrust Law or if any suit is instituted or threatened by any Governmental Authority or any private party challenging any of the transactions contemplated hereby as violating any Antitrust Law, then each of the Parties shall use reasonable best efforts to resolve such objections or challenges

as such Governmental Authority or private party may have to such transactions so as to permit consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement as soon as practicable and in any event prior to the Outside Date. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Arion shall promptly pursue all actions necessary to eliminate any concerns on the part of, or to satisfy any conditions imposed by, any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over the enforcement of any Antitrust Law, regarding the Purchase Transactions, including (i) proposing, negotiating, offering to commit and effecting (and if such offer is accepted, committing to and effecting), by consent decree, proxy arrangement, hold separate order or otherwise, the sale, divestiture or disposition of such assets or businesses of Arion or its Subsidiaries, now owned or hereafter sought to be acquired, or of the Purchased Shares or the Purchased Assets, (ii) terminating or amending any existing relationships and contractual rights and obligations or (iii) otherwise offering to take or offering to commit to take any action which it is capable of taking, and if the offer is accepted, taking or committing to take, such actions as are necessary, whether or not such actions limit or modify Arion’s rights of ownership in, or ability to conduct the business of, one or more of its operations, divisions, businesses, product lines, customers or assets, including, after the Closing, the Business, in each case, if such action is necessary in order to (1) obtain all Governmental Consents necessary to satisfy the conditions set forth in Section 7.1(a) and Section 7.1(b) as promptly as practicable, and in any event prior to the Outside Date, (2) using reasonable best efforts to avoid the initiation of any Proceeding by any Governmental Authority in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and/or (3) avoid the entry of, or to effect the dissolution of, any Antitrust Order which would have the effect of preventing or delaying the consummation of the Purchase Transactions and the other transactions contemplated hereby from occurring as promptly as practicable, and in any event prior to the Outside Date; provided that, the parties acknowledge and agree that the initiation of a Proceeding described in clause (2) above or the entry of an Antitrust Order described in clause (3) above shall not, in and of themselves, constitute a breach by Arion of this Section 6.4(e) so long as such reasonable best efforts are employed and the required actions set forth in this section are offered, committed and taken. In connection therewith, Arion shall take any and all actions necessary in order to ensure that (x) no requirement for a waiver, consent or approval of the Federal Trade Commission, the Antitrust Division of the Department of Justice, any State Attorney General or other Governmental Authority, (y) no decree, judgment, injunction, temporary restraining order or any other order in any suit or Proceeding and (z) no other matter relating to any Antitrust Law, would preclude consummation of the Purchase Transactions prior to the Outside Date. In furtherance of the foregoing, Arion shall keep the other party reasonably informed of all matters, discussions and activities relating to any of the matters contemplated by this Section 6.4(e). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, in no event shall (A) Sphinx or any of its Subsidiaries be required or expected to take any action to retain any of the Purchased Assets or Purchased Shares (including assets that would be Purchased Assets or shares that would be Purchased Shares but for the inability to obtain a Governmental Consent), effect the sale, divestiture or disposition of Excluded Assets or be required to grant rights of any kind to any third party or, except as otherwise provided in the proviso of the last sentence of Section 10.3(a), pay any amount, grant any guarantee or provide any other consideration to any third party or incur additional costs or expenses in order to obtain any such Governmental Consent or (B) Arion or its Subsidiaries be required to or expected to take any of the actions set forth in this Section 6.4(e) if such action would have a material adverse effect in the aggregate on the Arion Combined Business (after giving effect to the Purchase Transactions).

(f) During the period from the Agreement Date until the earlier of (x) the date this Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms and subject to the provisions of Article 10 hereof and (y) the Closing, except as otherwise expressly permitted or contemplated by this Agreement, Arion shall not, without the prior written consent of Sphinx, acquire (whether via merger,

consolidation, stock or asset purchase or otherwise), or agree to so acquire, any assets of or any equity in any other Person or any business or division thereof, if that acquisition or agreement would reasonably be expected to (i) materially increase the risk of not obtaining any Governmental Consent necessary to satisfy the conditions set forth in Section 7.1(a) and Section 7.1(b), (ii) materially increase the risk of any Governmental Authority entering an order prohibiting the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or materially increase the risk of not being able to remove any such order on appeal or otherwise, in connection with the Purchase Transactions or (iii) prevent or materially delay receipt of any Governmental Consent necessary to satisfy the conditions set forth in Section 7.1(a) and Section 7.1(b).

(g) Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement shall require Sphinx, Arion or their respective Affiliates or Subsidiaries to take or agree to take any action with respect to their respective businesses, assets or operations unless the effectiveness of such agreement or action is conditioned upon the occurrence of the Closing. This Section 6.4(g) (and not any other provisions) provides the parties’ sole and exclusive obligations with respect to the subject matter hereof (i.e., compliance with or filings made pursuant to any Antitrust Laws).

Section 6.5 Public Disclosures. Upon the execution of this Agreement and upon the Closing, Arion or Sphinx shall release a joint press release mutually acceptable to Arion and Sphinx. From and after the Agreement Date until the Closing or earlier termination of this Agreement, neither Arion nor Sphinx shall, and Arion and Sphinx shall cause each of their respective Subsidiaries and its and their respective directors, officers, employees, Affiliates and Representatives not to, directly or indirectly, issue any press release or other public statement relating to the terms of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby that discloses any additional information regarding the same or that is otherwise inconsistent with the agreed press release, or uses the name of the other Party or its Affiliates or refer to the other Party or its Affiliates, directly or indirectly, in connection with the relationship under this Agreement of the Parties and their Affiliates in any media interview, advertisement, news release, press release or professional or trade publication, or in any print media, whether or not in response to an inquiry, without the prior written approval of the other Party, except that (a) Arion or Sphinx may (x) issue such release or statement or make such other disclosures as they may reasonably determine is necessary to comply with applicable Law or the rules and regulations of any national securities exchange and (y) publish blog posts and other internet-based communications with regard to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and, in the case of Arion, the Arion Business or, in the case of Sphinx, the Business, (b) the Parties may issue any press release or make other public announcement (including to analysts or investors) to the extent that such release or announcement only contains information previously publicly disclosed in accordance with this Section 6.5 or is otherwise consistent in all material respects with previous statements made jointly by Arion and Sphinx or with the permission of the other Party, (c) Sphinx may disclose any information concerning the transactions contemplated by this Agreement which it deems appropriate in its reasonable judgment in light of its status as a publicly owned company, including to securities analysts and institutional investors and in press interviews; provided that, (x) in the case of any of clauses (a) through (c), to the extent in the good faith judgment of such Party it is reasonably practicable to do so, such Party shall provide the other Party with a reasonable opportunity in light of the circumstances to review such Party’s intended communication (to the extent made in writing) and consider in good faith modifications to the intended communication reasonably requested by the other Party and (y) in the case of clause (c), Sphinx shall provide Arion with any slides, scripts or other presentation materials prepared in contemplation of such communication or disclosure and shall consider in good faith modifications to such materials requested by Arion, (d) the Investors and their respective management companies may make disclosures to its and their current, former or prospective investors, equity holders and limited partners to the extent such information is customarily provided to current, former or prospective investors, equity holders or limited partners in private equity funds (provided

Without limiting the foregoing provisions hereof, Sphinx shall, to the extent reasonably practicable, consult with Arion regarding the form and content of any public disclosure of any material developments or matters involving the Business (including the financial condition or results of operations), Purchased Assets, Assumed Liabilities or the Purchased Entities, including earnings releases, reasonably in advance of publication or release. No Party shall, directly or indirectly through another entity, make any public statement that is intended to, or could reasonably be expected to, disparage the other Party, their Affiliates, Subsidiaries, equityholders, directors, managers, officers, employees, the Business or the Arion Business.

contained herein shall in no event be considered a waiver of any attorney-client privilege, work product privilege or any similar privilege.

Section 6.7 Employee Relations and Benefits.

(a) Schedule 6.7(a) of the Sphinx Disclosure Letter identifies each Business Employee (i) located within the United States by name, job title, annual salary or hourly wage rate; department; status as active or inactive; and jurisdiction of employment; and (ii) located outside of the United States, on a redacted basis to eliminate names, but including identification numbers; annual salary or hourly wage rate; department; status as active or inactive; and jurisdiction of employment; provided, however, that Sphinx shall update Schedule 6.7(a) of the Sphinx Disclosure Letter from time to time until the Closing Date in order to maintain, on a reasonable frequency of update, the accuracy of Schedule 6.7(a) of the Sphinx Disclosure Letter, including as a result of employee terminations, transfers (within Sphinx or its Subsidiaries), new hires and accidental or inadvertent errors or omissions, in each case, to the extent permitted by Section 6.1(a)(y); provided, further, that Sphinx shall provide an unredacted Schedule 6.7(a) of the Sphinx Disclosure Letter as soon as reasonably practicable after the date of this Agreement and in accordance with applicable Law. Following the Agreement Date but prior to the Closing, if Arion identifies any employees of Sphinx or its Subsidiaries that (i) Arion can demonstrate are or have been primarily dedicated to the Business (at any time since April 1, 2017) and (ii) the services such employee provides are reasonably necessary (and not duplicated by a Business Employee already identified on Schedule 6.7(a) of the Sphinx Disclosure Letter as determined by Arion in its reasonable discretion) to operate the Business following the Closing in the reasonably same manner as the Business was operated prior to the Closing, then Schedule 6.7(a) of the Sphinx Disclosure Letter shall be updated to include such employee with the consent of Sphinx, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed (an employee so included in Schedule 6.7(a) of the Sphinx Disclosure Letter, an “Omitted Employee”).

(b) Not later than the date that is (i) in the case of Business Employees in the United States, the 45th calendar day following the Agreement Date; (ii) in the case of Business Employees located in a jurisdiction outside of the United States (other than Automatic Transferred Employees), the date which is the later of (x) the 45th calendar day following the Agreement Date and (y) the 30th calendar day following Sphinx’s delivery to Arion of the unredacted Schedule 6.7(a) of the Sphinx Disclosure Letter, as required by Section 6.7(a) (or such longer time as may be required by applicable Law in such jurisdiction); and (iii) with respect to any Business Employee located in a jurisdiction in which the applicable Employing Entity is being newly formed, the date which is thes later of (x) the 45th calendar day following the Agreement Date and (y) the 10th calendar day following the date on which the Employing Entity (as defined in Section 6.7(c)) is formed or otherwise legally able to offer employment, Arion will, or will cause one of its Affiliates to, make an offer of employment to each of the Business Employees, other than the Automatic Transferred Employees, Inactive Employees and the Purchased Entity Employees, in accordance with the terms of Section 6.7(c). Each Business Employee, other than a Purchased Entity Employee and/or Automatic Transferred Employee, who is on or eligible for short-term or long-term disability leave of absence immediately prior to the Closing, is referred to herein as an “Inactive Employee.” If an Inactive Employee seeks and is able to return to active employment within six months following the Closing Date (or at such later time as required by applicable Law) and Sphinx notifies Arion of same, then Arion will, or will cause one of its Affiliates to, make an offer of employment to such Inactive Employee in accordance with the terms of Section 6.7(c) effective upon the date within such six-month period that such Inactive Employee is able to return to active employment. Each such Business

Employee who accepts and actually commences employment with Arion or any of its Affiliates effective immediately following the Closing, each Automatic Transferred Employee and each Purchased Entity Employee, is referred to herein as a “Continuing Employee.” Each Continuing Employee who is based in the United States is referred to as a “U.S. Continuing Employee,” and each Continuing Employee who is based outside of the United States is referred to as a “Foreign Continuing Employee.” Each Business Employee that receives an offer of employment from Arion or its Affiliates (or a Purchased Entity, as directed by Arion or the Transaction Committee) that complies with this Section 6.7 (a “Compliant Offer”), excluding (i) each Automatic Transferred Employee and (ii) each Purchased Entity Employee, is referred to herein as an “Offer Recipient Employee.” Nothing herein will be construed as a representation or guarantee by Sphinx or any of its Subsidiaries that (A) some or all of the Business Employees will accept an offer of employment with Arion or one of its Affiliates or acquiesce to the automatic transfer of their employment by operation of Law to Arion or any of its Affiliates, as applicable, or (B) some or all of the Continuing Employees will continue in employment with Arion or any of its Affiliates for any period of time following the Closing.

(c) Subject to applicable Law, Arion and Sphinx will reasonably cooperate with each other in connection with the presentation by Arion of employment offers to the Offer Recipient Employees. Pursuant to this Section 6.7, Arion will, or will cause one of its Affiliates (any such Affiliate, the “Employing Entity”) to, present its terms and conditions of employment (including terms and conditions in respect of post-Closing compensation and benefits and Transaction Severance Benefits) to the Offer Recipient Employees no later than (i) in the case of Business Employees in the United States, the 45th calendar day following the Agreement Date; (ii) in the case of Business Employees located in a jurisdiction outside of the United States (other than Automatic Transferred Employees), the date which is the later of (x) the 45th calendar day following the Agreement Date and (y) the 30th calendar day following Sphinx’s delivery to Arion of the un-redacted Schedule 6.7(a) of the Sphinx Disclosure Letter, as required by Section 6.7(a) (or such longer time as may be required by applicable Law in such jurisdiction); and (iii) with respect to any Business Employee located in a jurisdiction in which the applicable Employing Entity is being newly formed, the date which is the later of (x) the 45th calendar day following the Agreement Date and (y) the 10th calendar day following the date on which the Employing Entity (as defined in Section 6.7(c)) is formed or otherwise legally able to offer employment, which terms and conditions will be consistent with the provisions of this Section 6.7. Arion will provide Sphinx with a reasonable opportunity to review and provide input on the communications, proposed terms and conditions for all Business Employees reasonably in advance and will not present any particular set of terms and conditions to any Business Employees without Sphinx’s prior written consent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Arion will, or will cause the Employing Entity to, provide to each Offer Recipient Employee a written offer of employment upon the employment terms described herein, with such offer to be effective on the Closing Date or, with respect to an Inactive Employee, the date described in Section 6.7(a) above. Except to the extent agreed to between the Employing Entity and any Continuing Employees (including related to a change of the location of employment for those Continuing Employees included on Schedule 6.7(c)(i) of the Sphinx Disclosure Letter, which schedule will be delivered by Arion to Sphinx within 10 Business Days after the delivery by Sphinx of an un-redacted Schedule 6.7(a) of the Sphinx Disclosure Letter; provided, that such Continuing Employees shall not be required to agree to such change of location and if such Continuing Employee declines such change of location, he or she will not be deemed to have received a “Compliant Offer”), the employment offer by Arion and/or the Employing Entity of each such Continuing Employee shall be at the same general location in accordance with applicable Law at which such Continuing Employee was employed immediately prior to the Closing Date, and

shall provide that (A) such Continuing Employee will initially either be paid the same cash compensation (consisting of base salary or hourly wage rate and target cash bonus or commissions, but excluding nonqualified deferred compensation and equity-based benefits) and employment benefits that in the aggregate are substantially comparable as the base salary or hourly wage, other cash compensation and such employment benefits that were provided to (i) such Continuing Employees immediately prior to the Closing under the existing terms of the Sphinx Benefit Plans listed on Schedule 4.12(a) of the Sphinx Disclosure Letter or (ii) a similarly situated employee of Arion, whether previously a Business Employee or an Arion Employee immediately prior to the Closing, or as required by any Contract as set forth on Schedule 4.12(a) of the Sphinx Disclosure Letter or any applicable Transfer Regulations (including, in each such case, more favorable terms to the employee as are required by local Laws including any applicable Transfer Regulations, in which case the terms of such offer of employment or continued employment shall comply with such local Laws) (such compensation and benefits, the “Similar Benefits”) and (B) be granted equity compensation under the Arion Incentive Plan or be provided a long term incentive compensation opportunity, in each case having an equivalent value (as reasonably determined by Arion) as the value (as reasonably determined by Arion) of the unvested portion of the Sphinx restricted stock units held by such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Closing Date and that are cancelled as of the Closing for no consideration and are listed in Schedule 6.7(c)(ii) of the Sphinx Disclosure Letter (which schedule shall include the number of such restricted stock units and the original vesting schedule that would continue to apply to such restricted stock units in the absence of the Closing). For the avoidance of doubt, all liabilities pursuant to the Sphinx restricted stock units shall remain Excluded Employee Liabilities. Arion and/or the Employing Entity shall maintain Similar Benefits for Continuing Employees during the 12 month period that begins as of the Closing Date, or (x) such shorter period as such Continuing Employee remains an employee of such Employing Entity following the Closing Date, or (y) such longer period as required by any applicable local Laws or Transfer Regulations (the “Continuation Period”). Between the Agreement Date and the Closing Date, any communications between Arion and its Affiliates and any Business Employees regarding the terms of employment, employee benefits or otherwise regarding employment with Arion and its Affiliates following the Closing will be conducted at the times and through the processes mutually agreed upon by Sphinx and Arion and in accordance with applicable Law.

(d) Upon the Closing, Arion will, or will cause the Employing Entity to, make available and maintain a long-term incentive compensation and/or retention program for Continuing Employees and any Arion Employees as developed and determined by Arion (after consultation with Sphinx) to which Arion Common Shares shall be reserved for issuance to any Continuing Employee or Arion Employee (the “Arion Incentive Plan”).

(e) Arion or the Employing Entity will credit each Continuing Employee the amount of accrued and unpaid hours of vacation (to the extent permitted by Law), personal hours, PTO or days earned, sick leave and any other leave required to be credited by Law applicable to such Continuing Employee as of the Closing, except to the extent that such credit would result in the duplication of compensation and benefits and to the extent reflected in Closing Net Working Capital, collectively referred to herein as such Continuing Employee’s accrued PTO, and Sphinx will provide to Arion as of the Closing Date a schedule indicating for each Continuing Employee the type and number of days of such accrued PTO for each Continuing Employee. During the Continuation Period, Arion will ensure that such accrued PTO is not subject to forfeiture to the same extent not subject to forfeiture under the policies of Sphinx and its Subsidiaries governing such accrued PTO prior to the Closing or applicable Law; provided that such accrued PTO may count toward any maximum

accrual amount under any plan, program or policy established by Arion or the Employing Entity for the purpose of providing such leave.

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Automatic Transferred Employees and Purchased Entity Employees shall not be terminated upon Closing, but rather the rights, powers, duties, liabilities and obligations of Sphinx or any of its respective Subsidiaries to such employees in respect of the terms of employment with such employees in force immediately before Closing shall be transferred to Arion or one of its Affiliates to the extent required by applicable employment Laws and Transfer Regulations and these terms of employment shall remain applicable during the Continuation Period to the extent required by such Laws and Transfer Regulations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, to the extent that (i) the applicable Laws of any jurisdiction including any applicable Transfer Regulations, (ii) any collective bargaining agreement or other agreement with a works council or labor organization or (iii) any employment agreement, would require Arion or its Affiliates to provide any more favorable terms of employment to any Foreign Continuing Employee than those otherwise provided for by this Section 6.7 (or modify the period of time for which such standards are met), in connection with the Purchase Transactions or other transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, then Arion will, or will cause one of Arion’s Affiliates to provide such Foreign Continuing Employee with such more favorable terms, and otherwise provide terms of employment in accordance with this Section 6.7.

(g) Sphinx will and will cause its Subsidiaries to, and Arion will and will cause its Affiliates to, cooperate to identify and use reasonable efforts to transfer to Arion or its Affiliates of any individuals engaged as independent contractors by Sphinx or any of its Subsidiaries who are primarily engaged in the conduct of the Business.

(h) Arion shall be responsible for, and shall perform and discharge, or cause to be performed and discharged, and shall indemnify and hold harmless Sphinx and its Subsidiaries from and against, all Liabilities that arise out of the employment or the termination of employment by Arion or any of its Affiliates of the Continuing Employees (including any Automatic Transferred Employees or Purchased Entity Employees) upon and following the Closing. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, with respect to each Continuing Employee who incurs a Qualifying Termination during the Continuation Period, Arion will, or will cause the Employing Entity to, provide such employee with those severance payments and termination benefits under the applicable formula set forth, or otherwise described, in the Sphinx Severance Policies or in individual employment agreements or arrangements as listed on Schedule 6.7(h) of the Sphinx Disclosure Letter (the “Sphinx Severance Agreements”), or any higher amount of severance and/or additional termination payments or benefits as may be required by applicable Law (collectively, the “Transaction Severance Benefits”). Except as otherwise required by applicable Law, Arion will, or will cause the Employing Entity to, pay or deliver the Transaction Severance Benefits to any such Continuing Employee whose employment is being terminated in a Qualifying Termination as soon as reasonably practicable following the termination of such Continuing Employee’s employment. For purposes of this Agreement, a “Qualifying Termination” means a termination by Arion or the Employing Entity of the Continuing Employee’s employment other than for “Cause” (not due to death or disability) or a resignation by the Continuing Employee of its employment that constitutes a “Constructive Termination”, in each case as set forth in the applicable individual Sphinx Severance Agreement or the Sphinx Severance Policies. The occurrence of a Constructive Termination shall not be deemed to occur unless any such Continuing Employee provides written notice to Arion, or the Employing Entity, of the event that would otherwise be considered a Constructive Termination within 30 days of its first occurrence and Arion, or the Employing Entity, fails to cure such event

within 30 days of such written notice, and the Continuing Employee resigns within 30 days of Arion’s (or the Employing Entity’s) failure to cure (otherwise, the Continuing Employee will irrevocably waive any claim of Constructive Termination with respect to the alleged event). The Continuing Employees shall be notified by Arion, or the Employing Entity, of the requirements of a Qualifying Termination.

(i) In addition, Sphinx and Arion intend that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall not constitute a separation, termination or severance of employment of any Business Employee prior to or upon the consummation of the Purchase Transactions and that the Business Employees will have continuous and uninterrupted employment immediately before and immediately after the Closing Date, and Arion shall, and shall cause the Employing Entity to, comply with any requirements under applicable Law to ensure the same. Arion shall assume, be responsible for, pay and discharge, reimburse Sphinx and shall indemnify and hold harmless Sphinx and its Subsidiaries from and against all, severance and other termination benefits as set forth, or otherwise described, in Sphinx’s severance policies as listed on Schedule 6.7(h) of the Sphinx Disclosure Letter (the “Sphinx Severance Policies”), the Sphinx Severance Agreements or applicable Law with respect to (i) the termination by Sphinx or any of its Subsidiaries of any Business Employee’s employment with Sphinx or its Subsidiaries if such Business Employee did not receive a Compliant Offer or (ii) Arion’s failure to comply with Section 6.7(c), Section 6.7(d), Section 6.7(f) and Section 6.7(h) hereof following a 15-day opportunity to cure any such failure.

(j) Excluding all of the Assumed Liabilities (which includes Transaction Severance Benefits, as well as any accrued PTO and accrued sales commission amounts to the extent included in the calculation of Closing Net Working Capital and the amount that may become payable by Arion to Sphinx under Sections 6.7(h) and (i)), Sphinx shall be responsible for and shall perform and discharge, or cause to be performed and discharged, and shall indemnify and hold harmless Arion and its Affiliates from and against, (i) all accrued compensation due to any Business Employees for the period of their employment with Sphinx or its Subsidiaries prior to the Closing except to the extent reflected in Closing Net Working Capital, (ii) the sponsorship of and all Liabilities under or with respect to any Sphinx Benefit Plans, including those Liabilities incurred or claimed in respect of any Business Employee or their covered dependents for benefits or claims arising with respect to the period on or prior to the Closing Date, (iii) any and all Liabilities arising out of, or related to, any current or former Business Employee’s period of employment or service with Sphinx or one of its Subsidiaries incurred on or prior to the Closing Date, (iv) all Liabilities arising out of or related to any incentive equity program of Sphinx (including restricted stock units and performance stock units) and (v) any and all Liabilities (including all Liabilities relating to severance) arising out of, or relating to, any employees of the Sphinx Parties who are not Business Employees or do not become Continuing Employees not as the result of a failure to receive a Compliant Offer (the “Excluded Employee Liabilities”).

(k) Unless otherwise agreed between Arion and Sphinx, provided under the terms of the Sphinx Benefit Plans, the Transition Services Agreement or required by applicable Law, effective as of the Effective Time, each Continuing Employee shall cease to participate in, or accrue further benefits under, any Sphinx Benefit Plan (other than as a former employee of Sphinx and its Subsidiaries to the extent, if any, permitted by the terms of such Sphinx Benefit Plan). Continuing Employees shall commence participation in the Arion Benefit Plans at or as soon as practicable after the Effective Time; provided that any delay in commencement resulting from an act or omission by Arion or one of its Affiliates shall not result in any gap or lack of health benefits.

(l) Where applicable, Arion shall retain responsibility for all medical, dental, vision, life insurance, disability and other welfare plan benefits or expenses incurred by each Continuing Employee following the Closing Date under the applicable Arion Benefit Plan. Sphinx shall retain reasonability for all medical, dental, vision, life insurance, disability and other welfare plan benefits or expenses incurred by Business Employees under the Sphinx Benefit Plans, regardless of when incurred or reported.

(m) To the extent permitted or required by applicable Law, in the calendar year in which the Effective Time occurs, Arion will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause each benefit plan of Arion and its Affiliates that is a health benefit plan (collectively, “Arion Benefit Plans”) to (i) waive all limitations as to preexisting conditions, exclusions and service conditions with respect to participation and coverage requirements applicable to Continuing Employees to the extent such conditions and exclusions would not have been applicable to the Continuing Employees under the terms of the analogous Sphinx Benefit Plans in effect immediately prior to the Closing Date, (ii) honor any payments, charges and expenses of such Continuing Employees (and their eligible dependents) that were applied toward the deductible and out-of-pocket maximums under the corresponding Sphinx Benefit Plan in satisfying any applicable deductibles, out-of-pocket maximums or co-payments under a corresponding Arion Benefit Plan during the same plan year in which such payments, charges and expenses were made and (iii) with respect to any medical plan, waive any waiting period limitation or evidence of insurability requirement that would otherwise be applicable to a Continuing Employee following the Closing Date to the extent that such limitations or requirements would not have been applicable to a Continuing Employee under the terms of the analogous Sphinx Benefit Plan in effect immediately prior to the Closing Date.

(n) Arion and the Employing Entity will provide credit for each Continuing Employee’s length of service with Sphinx and its Subsidiaries (including any length of service with any entity acquired by Sphinx or any such Subsidiary) for purposes of eligibility, participation, vesting and level of severance benefits under each Arion Benefit Plan, retirement or severance plan, program, policy or arrangement of Arion and its Affiliates (other than any equity based incentive programs), (other than with respect to defined benefit, nonqualified or deferred compensation, equity or equity-based or retiree welfare benefits) for the same purposes that such service was credited by Sphinx as of the Closing under an analogous Sphinx Benefit Plan, except that such prior service credit will not be required to the extent that it results in a duplication of compensation or benefits for the same period of services. Sphinx will provide to Arion as of the Closing Date a schedule indicating the length of service of each Continuing Employee with Sphinx and its Subsidiaries through the Closing Date.

(o) In addition to the liability of Arion pursuant to Section 6.7(h), effective as of the Closing, Arion and Arion’s Affiliates will be responsible for (i) all Liabilities with respect to U.S. Continuing Employees and their eligible dependents, in respect of health insurance continuation under COBRA with respect to qualifying events occurring after the Closing under the applicable Arion Benefit Plan and (ii) to the extent applicable, all workers’ compensation benefits payable to or on behalf of the U.S. Continuing Employees with respect to injuries occurring after the Effective Time (or with respect to injuries occurring prior to or as of the Closing Date to the extent reflected in Final Net Working Capital). Sphinx and its Subsidiaries will assume or retain any obligations under COBRA with respect to U.S. Business Employees and other qualified beneficiaries: (A) who are enrolled in COBRA continuation coverage under a Sphinx Benefit Plan as of the Closing Date or (B) with respect to whom a qualifying event occurred on or prior to the Closing. Effective as of the Closing Date, Sphinx or its Subsidiaries shall take all necessary actions to provide full vesting

of all amounts credited to the account of any U.S. Continuing Employee under any Sphinx Benefit Plan intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code (the “Sphinx 401(k) Plan”), and Sphinx or its Subsidiaries shall make the matching, profit sharing, and any other employer contributions to such Sphinx 401(k) Plan on behalf of the U.S. Continuing Employees that would have been made irrespective of any end-of-year service requirements otherwise applicable to such contributions, prorated for the portion of the plan year ending on the Closing Date. Sphinx and its Subsidiaries shall take all actions necessary or appropriate to (A) ensure that, under the terms of any Sphinx 401(k) Plan, each U.S. Continuing Employee is eligible to receive a distribution from the Sphinx 401(k) Plan as a result of the Closing Date. Sphinx and its Subsidiaries shall take all actions necessary to permit the rollover in cash (or outstanding loan promisors notes for participant loans) of account balances (including outstanding loans) of U.S. Continuing Employees from the Sphinx 401(k) Plan to any 401(k) plan established by Arion or its Affiliates, as the participants’ election.

(p) Without limiting the provisions of this Section 6.7 and as identified on Section 6.7(p) of the Sphinx Disclosure Letter, (i) with respect to the fiscal year of Sphinx in which the Closing occurs and with respect to each Continuing Employee entitled to receive a portion of the Accrued Bonuses and who remains employed at the time of payment, Arion shall, or shall cause the applicable Employing Entity of such Continuing Employee to, make annual bonus payments to such Continuing Employee in an amount equal to at least (x) the amount of the Accrued Bonuses attributable to such Continuing Employee (the “Attributable Accrued Bonus Amount”), if any plus (y) such Continuing Employee’s Applicable Portion of the Forfeited Bonuses, if any, which payment shall be made at the same time or times as Sphinx would have paid such bonuses in the ordinary course of business prior to the Closing Date and (ii) with respect to any Sphinx Sales and Commission Plans in effect as of the closing, Arion shall, or shall cause the applicable Employing Entity of such Continuing Employee to, make such payments under the Sphinx Sales and Commission Plans as they are earned by such Continuing Employee and at least in an amount equal to the amount of accrued sales commissions to the extent included in the calculation of the Closing Net Working Capital, if any, which payment shall be made at the same time or times Sphinx pays such sales and commission payments in the ordinary course of business. As used herein, (A) “Forfeited Bonus Amount” means the amount equal to (x) Accrued Bonuses minus (y) the aggregate of all Attributable Accrued Bonus Amounts and (B) “Applicable Portion” means, with respect to a Continuing Employee, a fraction, the numerator of which is such Continuing Employee’s Attributable Accrued Bonus Amount and the denominator of which is the aggregate of all Attributable Accrued Bonus Amounts.

(q) Following the Agreement Date, each of Sphinx and its Subsidiaries and Arion and its Affiliates will use reasonable best efforts in all matters necessary to effect the transactions contemplated by this Section 6.7 and the requirements of any applicable Law or Transfer Regulations and will provide, and will cause each of their respective representatives, including legal, human resources and regulatory compliance personnel, to provide, all cooperation reasonably requested by the other Party in that regard, including, (i) cooperating and providing each other with all necessary and reasonable assistance and information to ensure that any works councils or committees, trade unions and/or employee representatives applicable to the Foreign Continuing Employees are provided with the information required in order for proper consultation, notification and other required processes under applicable Law to take place and (ii) exchanging information and data, including reports prepared in connection with bonus plan participation and related data of Continuing Employees (other than individual bonus opportunities based on target bonus as a percentage of base salary), relating to workers’ compensation, employee benefits and employee benefit plan coverages, including information and data that are necessary to support or perform any compensation consultant process or that is otherwise reasonably requested in connection with any compensation consultant

process (in each case, except to the extent prohibited by applicable Law or to the extent that such information and data relates to performance ratings or assessments of employees of Sphinx and its Subsidiaries), making any and all required filings and notices, making any and all required communications with Business Employees and obtaining any Governmental Consents required hereunder. Such cooperation will include the provision of any information and consultation required by applicable Law or Transfer Regulations (which shall include, in the case of Arion, information required by any applicable Transfer Regulations regarding any measures Arion envisages it will take with respect to any Automatic Transferred Employees after Closing), the terms of any Contract, or as reasonably requested by the other Party. Each of Sphinx and Arion will make available its representatives at such times and in such places as the other Party may reasonably request for purposes of discussions with representatives of any such works council, economic committee, union or similar body.

(r) The Parties recognize that certain of the Business Employees are in nonimmigrant visa status or have applications for lawful permanent residence pending with the relevant governmental authorities (the “Affected Foreign Employees”). The Parties further recognize that new or amended petitions with respect to such Affected Foreign Employees may be required in certain of these cases, unless Arion (or its Affiliates, as the case may be) is deemed the “successor-in-interest” to Sphinx or any of its Subsidiaries, as applicable (as such term is used in pronouncements by the United States Department of Homeland Security (“DHS”)) with respect to such Affected Foreign Employees. Accordingly, Arion hereby expressly agrees to assume, and Sphinx hereby assigns, all of the immigration-related Liabilities of the Affected Foreign Employees (including any obligations, Liabilities and undertakings arising from or under attestations made in each certified and still effective labor condition application filed by Sphinx with respect to any such Affected Foreign Employees).The Parties each agree to take such actions as may reasonably be requested at and following the Closing to document to the DHS or such other governmental agency, as the case may be, as may be necessary, the “successor-in-interest” relationship with respect to any Affected Foreign Employees.

(s) In connection with the employment by, or transition to, an Employing Entity of any Purchased Entity Employees, the Parties acknowledge that it may be necessary and desirable for Sphinx to, or cause its Subsidiaries to, at Arion’s sole cost and expense, perform the obligations of Arion or an Employing Entity under this Section 6.7 in order to facilitate the Transfer of Continuing Employees to Arion on the Closing Date and Sphinx agrees to use reasonable best efforts to perform such obligations at Arion’s reasonable and lawful instructions to the extent not prohibited by applicable Law. It is understood and agreed that notwithstanding the foregoing, Arion shall promptly reimburse Sphinx for its actual, out-of-pocket costs and expenses in connection with such performance and Arion shall remain solely responsible for its obligations under this Section 6.7, and shall indemnify and hold harmless Sphinx and its Subsidiaries from and against any and all Liabilities of Sphinx or of any of its Subsidiaries arising out of any actions taken under this Section 6.7 on behalf of, and at the instruction of, Arion; provided that Sphinx consults reasonably in advance with Arion prior to performing any of Arion’s obligations under this Section 6.7 and performs such actions in good faith in accordance with Arion’s reasonable and lawful instructions.

(t) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the provisions of this Section 6.7 shall not create any third-party beneficiary right, or any right to employment or continued employment or to a particular term or condition of employment with Arion or any of its Affiliates for any Person, including any Business Employee or Continuing Employee. Nothing in this Section 6.7 or any other provision of this Agreement (i) shall be construed to establish, amend, or modify

any benefit or compensation plan, program, agreement or arrangement, or (ii) shall limit the ability of Arion or any of its Affiliates to amend, modify or terminate any benefit plan, program, agreement or arrangement at any time assumed, established, sponsored or maintained by any of them.

Section 6.8 Insurance Matters. Following the Closing, Sphinx shall provide Arion and its Affiliates (including the Purchased Entities) access to, upon reasonable request, information with respect to all occurrence-based third-party insurance policies that have provided coverage to any Purchased Entity or the Business prior to Closing. Such insurance, to the extent provided in the applicable policies, shall be available to cover the Liabilities of the Purchased Entities and the Business to the extent any claims are asserted that arise out of operations of the Purchased Entities or the Business prior to Closing, subject in each case to the terms and limitations of such policies (the “Pre-Closing Claims”). If any Pre-Closing Claim is asserted after the Closing, Arion or its Affiliates shall be responsible to pay all deductibles, self-retention amounts, premium adjustments, litigation expenses or other costs as required under the applicable insurance policies and all costs of prosecution or collection thereof. Sphinx shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with Arion and the Purchased Entities in any of their efforts to avail themselves of coverage under any such applicable insurance policies with respect to Pre-Closing Claims, but it shall be the responsibility of the Purchased Entities to submit claims directly to the applicable insurers. Arion acknowledges that certain policies and insurance coverage maintained on behalf of the Business are part of the corporate insurance program maintained by Sphinx and its Subsidiaries, and related to businesses other than the Business, in which case, such coverage will not be available with respect to any claims that are asserted or arise out of operations of the Purchased Entities or the Business following the Closing or otherwise Transferred to Arion. From and after the Closing Date, the Purchased Entities and their Subsidiaries shall cease to be insured by Sphinx’s or its Subsidiaries’ insurance policies or by any of their self-insured programs except with respect to Pre-Closing Claims in accordance with this Section 6.8, and Sphinx and any of its Subsidiaries may, to be effective at the Closing, amend any insurance policies in the manner it deems appropriate to give effect to this Section 6.8 with respect to coverage of the Purchased Entities or the Business following the Closing. Neither Arion nor any of its Affiliates (including, after the Closing, each of the Purchased Entities) shall have any access, right, title or interest to or in any such insurance policies (including to all claims and rights to make claims and all rights to proceeds other than with respect to claims made on behalf of Arion, its Affiliates or the Business) to cover any assets of Arion or its Affiliates or any Liability arising from the operation of the Business following the Closing. From and after the Closing, Arion shall be responsible for securing all insurance it considers appropriate for Arion and its Affiliates and its operation of the Business. Arion covenants and agrees not to seek to assert or to exercise any rights or claims of the Business or any Purchased Entity under or in respect of any past or current insurance policy the Business or any Purchased Entity is a named insured except with respect to Pre-Closing Claims.

Section 6.9 Tax Matters.

(a) Tax Indemnification.

(i) Sphinx shall indemnify and hold harmless the Arion Indemnified Parties from and against: (A) except to the extent such Taxes are indemnified under Section 6.9(a)(ii)(D), (1) Taxes of the Purchased Entities for all Pre-Closing Tax Periods, (2) Taxes imposed on or with respect to the Purchased Assets for any Pre-Closing Tax Period and (3) Taxes imposed on or with respect to the Business for any Pre-Closing Tax Period, (B) Taxes arising out of any breach of any covenant made by Sphinx or any of its Subsidiaries in this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, (C) Taxes arising from and attributable to the Sphinx Pre-Closing Restructuring Steps (except for Transfer Taxes as provided for in Section 6.9(b)) or any other action taken by Sphinx and its Affiliates in order to effectuate or otherwise

incurred in connection with the restructuring transactions contemplated in Section 2.8(a) hereof and (D) Taxes arising under Section 1.1502-6 of the Treasury Regulations or any similar provision of state, local or foreign Law by virtue of any Purchased Entity having been a member of a consolidated, combined, affiliated, unitary or other similar tax group prior to the Closing, in each case excluding any (x) additional Taxes that would not have been incurred (to the extent that exceeds the Taxes that otherwise would have been incurred) but for (1) any breach of any covenant made by Arion or any of its Affiliates or (2) any action taken outside the ordinary course of business by Arion or any of its Affiliates after the Closing but on the Closing Date and (y) any Taxes described in Section 6.9(a)(ii)(D) (relating to Requested Sphinx Restructuring Steps) or Section 6.9(a)(ii)(E) (relating to certain Taxes attributable to the Arion Pre-Closing Restructuring Steps) (collectively, the “Excluded Tax Liabilities”). Notwithstanding that a claim for Taxes or Losses may fall into multiple categories of this Section 6.9(a)(i), an Arion Indemnified Party may recover such Taxes and Losses one time only. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement and for the avoidance of doubt, the limitations in Section 9.2 shall not apply to this Section 6.9(a)(i).

(ii) Arion shall indemnify and hold harmless the Sphinx Indemnified Parties from and against (A)(1) Taxes of the Purchased Entities for all Post-Closing Tax Periods, (2) Taxes imposed on the Purchased Assets for any Post-Closing Tax Period, (3) Taxes imposed on or with respect to the Business for any Post-Closing Tax Period, (B) Taxes arising out of any breach of any covenant made by Arion or any of its Affiliates in any Transaction Document, (C) Taxes arising out of any action taken outside the ordinary course of business by Arion or any of its Affiliates after the Closing but on the Closing Date, (D) Taxes arising from or attributable to any Requested Sphinx Restructuring Steps (except for Transfer Taxes as provided for in Section 6.9(b)), and (E) Taxes of the Sphinx Indemnified Parties arising from or attributable to any Arion Pre-Closing Restructuring Steps (except for Transfer Taxes as provided for in Section 6.9(b)) or any other action taken by Arion and its Affiliates in order to effectuate or otherwise incurred in connection with the restructuring transactions contemplated in Section 2.8(b) hereof (provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, this clause (E) shall not take into account any Taxes from the transfer of the Purchased Assets or Purchased Entities hereunder and from any decisions by Arion or its Affiliates as to the jurisdiction or jurisdictions in which the Purchased Assets or Purchased Entities are transferred, including the transfer to Arion or any Other Arion Entity or otherwise), in each case, excluding any additional Taxes that would not have been incurred (to the extent that exceeds the Taxes that otherwise would have been incurred) but for any breach of any covenant made by Sphinx or any of its Affiliates and excluding any Taxes or other amounts subject to indemnification under Section 6.9(a)(i) or Section 9.1(a) hereof. Notwithstanding that a claim for Taxes may fall into multiple categories of this Section 6.9(a)(ii), a Sphinx Indemnified Party may recover such Taxes one time only. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement and for the avoidance of doubt, the limitations in Section 9.2 shall not apply to this Section 6.9(a)(ii).

(iii) With respect to the Business, in the case of any Straddle Period, the amount of Taxes allocable to the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date shall be deemed to be (A) in the case of Taxes imposed on a periodic basis (such as real or personal property Taxes), the amount of such Taxes for the entire period (or, in the case of such Taxes determined on an arrears basis, the amount of such Taxes for the immediately preceding period) multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of calendar days in

the Straddle Period ending on and including the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of calendar days in the entire relevant Straddle Period and (B) in the case of Taxes not described in clause (A) (such as franchise Taxes or Taxes that are based on or related to income or receipts), the amount of any such Taxes shall be determined as if such taxable period ended as of the close of business on the Closing Date.

(b) Transfer Taxes.

(i) For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Transfer Taxes” shall mean all transfer, sales, use, stamp, ad valorem, conveyance, VAT, custom duty, documentary, registration and other similar Taxes (including charges for or in connection with the recording of any instrument or document and any interest, penalties, assessments or additions to tax resulting from, attributable to or incurred in connection with any tax or any contest or dispute thereof, and including any Liability for the Taxes of another Person) payable in connection with the consummation of the Purchase Transactions and the Transfer of the Purchased Shares and the Purchased Assets pursuant to this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents. The Liability for all Transfer Taxes shall be borne one-half by Arion and one-half by Sphinx. Sphinx and Arion shall cooperate with each other in the provision of any information or preparation of any documentation that may be necessary or useful for obtaining any available mitigation, reduction or exemption from any Transfer Taxes.

(ii) Unless the Parties mutually agree otherwise, any Tax Returns that must be filed in connection with any Transfer Taxes shall be prepared and filed by the Party required by Law to file such Tax Returns (the “Transfer Tax Returns”), and subject to tax reimbursement or indemnification rights hereunder, such Party shall pay the Transfer Taxes shown on such Tax Return within the period specified by applicable Law. The filing party shall use its reasonable efforts to provide the other Party with a draft copy of such Tax Return which it is required to file at least seven Business Days before such Tax Returns are due to be filed and shall consider in good faith any comments provided by such other Party. All such Tax Returns shall be consistent with the allocation of the Total Consideration as determined pursuant to Section 3.3. Arion shall settle its obligations for any Liability for Transfer Taxes as defined in this Section 6.9 within the period specified by applicable Law and shall reimburse Sphinx for any Transfer Taxes paid by Sphinx within 20 Business Days of being invoiced by Sphinx for such amount.

(i) Except as provided in Section 6.9(b), Sphinx shall prepare or cause to be prepared and duly file or cause to be duly filed, all Pre-Closing Tax Returns in a timely manner with the appropriate Taxing Authorities; provided that all Pre-Closing Tax Returns of any Purchased Entity shall (to the extent related to the Purchased Shares, Purchased Assets, Assumed Liabilities or the Business) be prepared using accounting methods and other practices that are consistent with those used in the Tax Returns filed prior to the Closing (except as otherwise required by applicable Law or to correct any clear errors). As used herein, “Pre-Closing Tax Returns” shall mean (A) all Tax Returns of the Purchased Entities prepared or filed on an affiliated, consolidated, combined or unitary basis with Sphinx or any of its Subsidiaries (other than the Purchased Entities) and (B) all other Tax Returns (other than as provided in Section 6.9(b)) for Tax periods ending on or before the Closing Date that are of the Purchased Entities (the due date of which is after the Closing Date) or

relate to the Purchased Assets, the Assumed Liabilities or the Business. Sphinx will provide Arion with a copy of any income or other material Pre-Closing Tax Returns of the Purchased Entities (excluding any Tax Returns filed with Sphinx or any of its Subsidiaries (other than the Purchased Entities) on a group basis, as described in the foregoing clause (A)) at least 20 Business Days before the due date for the filing of such Tax Return for Arion’s review and comment (and Sphinx shall incorporate any reasonable comments of Arion on such Tax Returns).

(ii) Except as provided in Section 6.9(b), each Straddle Period Tax Return shall be prepared and filed, or caused to be prepared and filed, with the appropriate Taxing Authority (A) by Arion if it or any of its Affiliates is permitted to file such Tax Return under applicable Law or (B) by Sphinx if Arion and its Affiliates are not permitted to file such Tax Return under applicable Law, in each case in a timely manner using accounting methods and other practices that are consistent with past practice (except as otherwise required by applicable Law or to correct any clear errors); provided that such filing party (x) shall provide the other Party with a draft copy of such Tax Return at least 30 Business Days before the due date for the filing of such Tax Return (including extensions) for its review and comment, (y) shall incorporate all reasonable comments of the other Party with respect to such Straddle Period Tax Return and (z) shall provide the other Party with a finalized copy of such Tax Return as soon as practicable before such due date. The Party preparing the Straddle Period Tax Return shall not file such Tax Return until the earlier of (I) the receipt of written notice from the other Party indicating other Party’s consent thereto or (II) one Business Day’s prior to the due date. As used herein, “Straddle Period Tax Returns” shall mean all Tax Returns for Straddle Periods that are of the Purchased Entities or relate to the Purchased Assets, the Assumed Liabilities other than Transfer Tax Returns and Tax Returns of the Purchased Minority Interests.

(iii) With respect to each Pre-Closing Tax Return described in this Section 6.9(c)(ii),the party required to file such Tax Return (or cause such Tax Return to be filed) pursuant to this Section 6.9(c) (the “Tax Return Filer”) shall timely pay to the relevant Taxing Authority the amount, if any, shown as due on such Tax Return; provided that if the Tax Return Filer is not permitted to make such payment under applicable Law, then the Parties shall cooperate in good faith to arrange for such amount to be paid to the relevant Taxing Authority in a manner permitted by applicable Law; provided, further, that the obligation to make payments pursuant to this Section 6.9(c)(iii) shall not affect such Tax Return Filer’s right, if any, to receive payments under Section 6.9(c)(iv) or otherwise be indemnified under this Agreement with respect to any Taxes.

(iv) On or before the due date of any Tax Return described in this Section 6.9 (including extensions), the relevant Tax Return Filer shall notify the other Party of any amounts shown as due on such Tax Return (and to be paid by such Tax Return Filer and its Affiliates or Subsidiaries, as applicable), or any portions of any such amounts, for which the other Party must indemnify the Tax Return Filer under this Agreement, and such other Party shall pay such amounts (or portions thereof) to the Tax Return Filer no later than such due date or, if later, 10 Business Days after the date on which notice of such amounts (or portions thereof) is provided by the Tax Return Filer pursuant to this Section 6.9(c)(iv).

(d) Tax Refunds.

(i) After the Closing Date, except to the extent (A) included as an asset in Closing Net Working Capital as finally determined hereunder, or (B) attributable to the carryback of any loss from a Post-Closing Tax Period to a Pre-Closing Tax Period, if Arion or any of its Affiliates receives any Tax refund of the Purchased Entities for the Pre-Closing Tax Period or with respect to other Taxes for which Sphinx is responsible under Section 6.9(a)(i) or an Overpayment Credit, in each case to the extent attributable to (x) Taxes paid by or on behalf of Sphinx, any Purchased Entity or any of Sphinx’s Affiliates on or prior to the Closing Date, (y) Taxes actually indemnified by Sphinx hereunder or (z) Taxes included as a liability in Closing Net Working Capital (if any) (in each case, as finally determined hereunder), Arion shall pay to Sphinx the entire amount of such refund or Overpayment Credit (including any interest thereon from the Taxing Authorities, but net of any Taxes imposed by, a Taxing Authority with respect to such Tax refund or other costs and expenses incurred by Arion or its Affiliates) as soon as practicable after receipt thereof; provided that if Arion is required to repay to the relevant Taxing Authority such Tax refund, Sphinx shall repay the amount previously paid by Arion to Sphinx pursuant to this Section 6.9(d) in respect of such refund (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Taxing Authority). Arion shall, at Sphinx’s sole cost and expense, prosecute in good faith and with reasonable diligence any Tax refund claims filed by a Purchased Entity or with respect to the Purchased Assets prior to the Closing which are identified in writing by Sphinx to Arion within 90 days of the Closing Date. Arion shall also, if requested by Sphinx within 90 days of the Closing Date, and at Sphinx’s sole cost and expense, cause the relevant entity to file for and attempt in good faith and with reasonable diligence to obtain any Tax refund (or Overpayment Credit) that would give rise to a payment under this Section 6.9(d); provided that, Arion shall only be required to take such action if (A) pursuing or obtaining such refund is, in Arion’s good faith judgment (after consultation with applicable tax counsel), reasonably expected to have the effect of increasing the Tax liability or decreasing any Tax asset or attribute (other than the Tax refund payable to Sphinx hereunder) of the Arion or its Affiliates in a Post-Closing Taxable Period, and (B) the legal right to such Tax refund has a “more likely than not” (or high confidence level) basis of being sustained if challenged by the relevant governmental authority.

(ii) Except as otherwise required by applicable Law or in connection with the resolution of any Tax Claim in accordance with Section 6.9(f), Arion shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates not to, (A) make or change any Tax election of the Purchased Entities or related to the Purchased Assets, the Assumed Liabilities or the Business for a Pre-Closing Tax Period or Straddle Period, (B) amend, file, refile or otherwise modify (or grant an extension of any applicable statute of limitations with respect to) any Pre-Closing Tax Return or Straddle Period Tax Return or (C) carry back any Tax attribute, including any loss, loss carry forward, credit, credit carry forward, prepaid Tax or refund, and any claim for or right to receive any of the foregoing (a “Tax Attribute”) of any of the Purchased Entities from a Tax period ending after the Closing Date to any Pre-Closing Tax Period (each, a “Post-Closing Tax Action”) in each case, without the prior written consent of Sphinx (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). If Arion or any of its Affiliates does carry back a Tax Attribute to a Pre-Closing Tax Period, then (x) no payment with respect to such carryback shall be due to Arion or any of its Affiliates from Sphinx or any of its Subsidiaries and (y) if Arion or any of its Affiliates receives any refund, credit or offset of any Taxes in connection with such carryback, Arion shall promptly pay to Sphinx the full

100

amount of such refund of Taxes pursuant to Section 6.9(d). After the Closing, Sphinx shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, amend any Tax Returns or change any Tax elections or accounting methods with respect to any of the Purchased Entities, the Purchased Assets, the Assumed Liabilities or the Business relating to any Pre-Closing Tax Period to the extent such amendment or change could be expected to increase the Taxes of Arion or any of its Affiliates (including the Purchased Entities) for which it would not otherwise be indemnified under Section 6.9(a) unless such change is necessary to comply with applicable Tax law, as reasonably determined in good faith by Sphinx.

(e) Cooperation and Assistance.

(i) The Parties shall cooperate with each other in the preparation and filing of any Tax Returns and the conduct of any audit or other Proceeding. They each shall execute and deliver such powers of attorney and make available such other documents as are reasonably necessary to carry out the intent of this Section 6.9.

(ii) If either Party is liable under this Section 6.9 including any amounts due pursuant to Section 6.9(d), for any portion of a Tax shown due on any Tax Return required to be filed by the other Party pursuant to this Section 6.9, then the party required to file such Tax Return (or cause such Tax Return to be filed) pursuant to this Section 6.9 (the “Tax Return Filer”) shall deliver a copy of the relevant portions of such Tax Return (taking into account any extensions, if applicable) to the liable Party. If the Parties disagree as to the treatment of any item shown on such Tax Return or with respect to any calculation with respect to any Tax Return to be filed pursuant to this Section 6.9, an independent public accounting firm acceptable to both Sphinx and Arion shall determine, consistent with Sphinx’s past practice (except as otherwise required by Law), how the disputed item is to be treated on such Tax Return (“Accountant’s Determination”). If the Accountant’s Determination has not been made prior to the due date for filing such Tax Return, the Party required to file such Tax Return may file such Tax return as it deems appropriate, and if the subsequent Accountant’s Determination is that such Tax Return should have been filed in some other manner, the filing Party shall amend such Tax Return in accordance with the Accountant’s Determination. Sphinx shall be deemed to be the prevailing party unless the public accounting firm determines in favor of Arion with respect to more than one-half of the amount of Taxes in dispute, in which case Arion shall be deemed to be the prevailing party. The non-prevailing party with respect to the Accountant’s Determination shall pay its own fees and expenses and the fees and expenses of the prevailing party, including fees and costs of counsel, reasonably incurred in connection with the Accountant’s Determination.

(iii) Upon request, each Party shall deliver to the tax director of the other Party certified copies of all receipts for any foreign Tax with respect to which such other Party or any of its Affiliates or subsidiaries (if any), as applicable, could claim a foreign Tax credit or comparable Tax reduction and any supporting documents required in connection with claiming or supporting a claim for such a foreign Tax credit or comparable Tax reduction.

(iv) The Parties shall retain records, documents, accounting data and other information in whatever form that are necessary for the preparation and filing, or for any Tax audit, of any and all Tax Returns with respect to any Taxes that relate to Tax periods that begin on or prior to the Closing Date. Such retention shall be in accordance with the record retention policy of the respective Party, but in no event shall any Party destroy or

101

otherwise dispose of such records, documents, accounting data and other information prior to the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations (including extensions). Each Party shall give any other Party reasonable access to all such records, documents, accounting data and other information as well as to its personnel and premises to the extent necessary for a reasonable review or a Tax audit of such Tax Returns and relevant to an obligation under this Section 6.9.

(v) Sphinx shall use its reasonable commercial efforts to provide Arion with a clearance certificate or similar document(s) which may be required by any Taxing Authority to relieve Arion of any obligation to withhold any portion of the payments to Sphinx pursuant to this Agreement.

(f) Tax Controversies. A Party shall promptly notify the other Party in writing (in no event later than 20 Business Days) (a “Notification”) upon receipt of written notice of any pending or threatened audits or assessments with respect to Taxes for which such other Party (or any of its Affiliates or Subsidiaries, as applicable) is liable under Section 6.9 or may give rise to an indemnification payment under Section 6.9(a). Failure to give such Notification shall not relieve the indemnifying party from Liability under this Section 6.9, except if and to the extent the indemnifying party is actually prejudiced thereby. Subject to further provisions of this Section 6.9(f), each Party shall be entitled to control and be solely responsible for the defense of any tax audit or administrative or court Proceeding (a “Tax Claim”) relating to Taxes for which it may be solely liable, and to employ counsel of its choice at its expense. Arion shall be entitled to take control of the defense of any Tax Claim relating to Taxes for which it may be partially liable; provided that Sphinx, at its sole cost and expense, shall have the right to participate in any Tax Claim relating to Taxes for which it may be partially liable. If Arion controls a Tax Claim relating to Taxes for which Sphinx may be partially liable, (i) Arion shall conduct the defense of the Tax Claim diligently and in good faith, (ii) Arion shall keep Sphinx informed regarding the status of such Tax Claim and (iii) Arion shall not settle, resolve, or abandon any such Tax Claim without Sphinx’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) to the extent such settlement, resolution or abandonment would increase Taxes for which Sphinx is liable under this Agreement. If Arion chooses not to control a Tax Claim, (A) Sphinx shall assume control of the Tax Claim and conduct the defense of the Tax Claim diligently and in good faith, (B) Sphinx shall keep Arion informed regarding the status of such Tax Claim, (C) Arion shall have the right to participate in such Tax Claim at its sole cost and expense, and (D) Sphinx shall not settle, resolve, or abandon any such Tax Claim without Arion’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) to the extent such settlement, resolution or abandonment would increase Taxes for which Arion is liable under this Agreement. This Section 6.9(f) shall govern to the extent it would otherwise be inconsistent with Section 9.3.

Section 6.10 Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

(a) If the Closing occurs, for a period of six years after the Closing, Arion shall, and shall cause the Purchased Entities and their Subsidiaries to, take any necessary actions to provide that all rights to indemnification or expense advancement and all limitations on Liability relating to the Business existing in favor of the Business Indemnitees as provided in the D&O Indemnity Arrangements shall survive the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and continue in full force and effect and be honored by the Purchased Entities and their Subsidiaries after the Closing in accordance with their terms (or be replaced with such rights and limitations as are no less favorable thereto). As used herein, (x) the “Business Indemnitees” means individuals who at or

102

prior to the Closing were current or former officers or directors of the Purchased Entities and their Subsidiaries (or the predecessors of the Purchased Entities and their Subsidiaries) relating to service in such capacities prior to the Closing and (y) the “D&O Indemnity Arrangements” means (i) the Organizational Documents of the Purchased Entities and their Subsidiaries in effect on the Agreement Date or (ii) any agreement providing for indemnification by the Purchased Entities or their Subsidiaries of any of the Business Indemnitees in effect on the Agreement Date to which the Purchased Entities and/or their Subsidiaries are a party.

(b) In the event that the Purchased Entities, their Subsidiaries or Arion or any of their respective successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfers or conveys all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of the Purchased Entities, their Subsidiaries or Arion, as the case may be, shall succeed to the obligations set forth in this Section 6.10.

(c) The obligations of Arion under this Section 6.10 shall not be terminated or modified in such a manner as to adversely affect any indemnitee to whom this Section 6.10 applies without the express written consent of such affected indemnitee (it being expressly agreed that the indemnitees to whom this Section 6.10 applies shall be third-party beneficiaries of this Section 6.10).

Section 6.11 Non-Competition; Non-Solicitation.

(a) During the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending three years after the Closing Date (the “Non-Compete Period”), Sphinx will not, and will cause its Subsidiaries not to, participate or engage in, or hold any ownership interest in any Person who engages in, the design, development, manufacturing, production, marketing, sale or servicing of any product, or the provision of any service, that provides the same or substantially similar principal functionality or services as the Products (“Competing Activity”).

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing clause (a), Sphinx and its Subsidiaries may in all events:

(i) engage in any business conducted by Sphinx or its Subsidiaries on the Agreement Date (other than the Business) and continue to sell its products and services as of the Agreement Date (other than Products), and any new releases, updates and successors to such products and services;

(ii) design, develop, manufacture, produce, market, sell or service any product or service utilizing public key infrastructure technology, including but not limited to embedding mPKI (as such term is currently used in the Business) into any product or service (“Permitted PKI Offerings”); provided, however, Permitted PKI Offerings do not include operating as a public Certificate Authority, including (x) any offer for sale on a standalone basis publicly-trusted "DV" (Domain Validated), "OV" (Organization Validated) and or "EV" (Extended Validation) certificates, or (y) any license, sale or provide as a service any standalone customer facing SSL/TLS certificate management software product in each case as those terms are currently defined in the Business at Closing

103

(iii) continue to perform any Competing Activity for the benefit of Arion or any of its Affiliates as required or expressly contemplated by this Agreement or any other Transaction Document;

(iv) acquire any Person, or one or more divisions or lines of business of a Person, that engages in a Competing Activity by merger or a purchase of shares or assets of a Person so long as, immediately prior to the time of such acquisition, the Competing Activity does not account for more than 20% of the aggregate annual gross revenues of such Person, or divisions or lines of business of such Person, to be so acquired for its most recent fiscal year preceding the acquisition; provided, however, that in the event of such acquisition where the aggregate annual gross revenue related to the Competing Activity exceeds 20% of the aggregate annual gross revenue of the Person or divisions or lines of business of such Person, Sphinx shall be permitted to acquire such Person or business so long as it divests the portion of the Person or business that engages in the Competing Activity within 18 months of the acquisition thereof; provided, further, that such 18 month period shall be extended to the date on which all approvals from a Governmental Authority required to complete the divestiture are received (to no later than the third anniversary following the acquisition of such Person or divisions or lines of business of such Person) if such approvals are not received by the end of such 18 month period; and

(v) own and operate any Person, division or line of business acquired in compliance with clause (iii) above; provided that, any such division or line of business does not account for more than 5% of the aggregate annual gross revenues of Sphinx and its Subsidiaries during the Non-Compete Period.

(c) During the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending 12 months after the Closing Date, Sphinx will not, and will cause its Subsidiaries not to, directly or indirectly, solicit to hire or, in such jurisdictions where such restriction would not be prohibited by Law, hire in any capacity (whether as an employee, consultant, independent contractor or otherwise) any employee of Arion or its Subsidiaries who has the title of director or other equivalent or higher position (including any Continuing Employee) or any other employee of Arion or its Subsidiaries to whom Sphinx is introduced, of whom Sphinx has become aware, or with whom Sphinx has otherwise had substantial contact, as a result of the preparation, negotiation, execution and performance of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. This restriction shall not apply to Persons that have been terminated by Arion or its Subsidiaries for at least 90 days prior to commencement of employment discussions between Sphinx or its Subsidiaries or its or their representatives and such Person and nothing in this clause (c) shall restrict Sphinx or its Subsidiaries from engaging in general or public searches, solicitations or advertising by or on behalf of Sphinx or such Subsidiary (including through search firms) that is not specifically directed towards any such Person described in the first sentence of this clause (c).

(d) During the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending 12 months after the Closing Date, Arion will not, and will cause its Subsidiaries not to, directly or indirectly, solicit to hire or, in such jurisdictions where such restriction would not be prohibited by Law, hire in any capacity (whether as an employee, consultant, independent contractor or otherwise) any employee of Sphinx or its Subsidiaries who has the title of director or other equivalent or higher position, or any other employee of Sphinx or its Subsidiaries to whom Arion is introduced, of whom Arion has become aware, or with whom Arion has otherwise had substantial contact, as a result of the preparation, negotiation, execution and performance of this Agreement and the transactions

104

contemplated hereby (other than the Business Employees). This restriction shall not apply to Persons who have been terminated by Sphinx or its Subsidiaries at least 90 days prior to commencement of employment discussions between Arion or its Subsidiaries or its or their representatives and such Person and nothing in this clause (d) shall restrict Arion or its Subsidiaries from engaging in general or public searches, solicitations or advertising by or on behalf of Arion or such Subsidiary (including through search firms) that is not specifically directed towards any such Person described in the first sentence of this clause (d).

(e) If after Closing and during the Non-Compete Period Sphinx or any of its Subsidiaries desire to purchase PKI certificates from a third party for use in Permitted PKI Offerings, it will purchase those certificates from Arion, so long as Arion can meet the applicable Sphinx technical requirements and agrees to sell those certificates at fair market prices and terms, and in no event less favorable pricing and terms than the most favorable pricing and terms offered by Arion to any similarly situated customer.

(f) Each Party acknowledges and agrees that the covenants and agreements set forth in this Section 6.11 were a material inducement to the other Party to enter into this Agreement and to perform its obligations hereunder. Sphinx hereby acknowledges that the restrictive covenants set forth in Section 6.11(a) are reasonable in terms of duration, scope and area restrictions and are limited to the scope that is necessary to protect the goodwill of the Business and to prevent the impairment of the value of the substantial investment therein being made by Arion hereunder. The Parties agree that, if any court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment determines that a specified time period, a specified geographical area, a specified business limitation or any other relevant feature of this Section 6.11 is unreasonable, arbitrary or against public policy, then a lesser time period, geographical area, business limitation or other relevant feature which is determined by such court to be reasonable, not arbitrary and not against public policy may be enforced against the applicable Party. It is agreed that any breach or threatened breach of the restrictive covenants set forth in this Section 6.11 would cause irreparable injury to the non-breaching Party and that money damages would not provide an adequate remedy to the non-breaching Party.

Section 6.12 Further Assurances; Wrong Pockets.

(a) General Assurances. In addition to the actions specifically provided for elsewhere in this Agreement, each of the Parties will cooperate with each other and use its reasonable efforts, prior to, at and after the Closing Date, to take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and to do, or cause to be done, all things reasonably necessary or appropriate on its part to consummate and make effective, in the most expeditious manner practicable, the Purchase Transactions and the other transactions contemplated hereby, including the satisfaction of the respective conditions set forth in Article 7 and including the execution and delivery of such other instruments, certificates, agreements and other documents and the performance of such other actions as may be necessary or reasonably desirable to consummate and implement expeditiously the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents; provided that all such actions are in accordance with applicable Law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, from time to time, whether at or after the Closing, Sphinx and its Subsidiaries (as appropriate) will execute and deliver such further instruments, certificates, agreements and other documents and perform such other actions, at Sphinx’s sole expense and subject to Section 3.6(b), as Arion may reasonably require to more effectively Transfer to Arion any of the Purchased Assets or Purchased Shares and Arion will execute and deliver such instruments, certificates, agreements and other documents and perform such other actions, at Sphinx’s sole expense, as Sphinx or its Subsidiaries may reasonably require for Arion to

105

more effectively assume the Assumed Liabilities. Neither Arion nor Sphinx will be required to make any payments, incur any Liability, or offer or grant any accommodation (financial or otherwise) to any third party in connection with obtaining any Consent of any Person. The obligations of each Party under this Section 6.12(a) shall expire 18 months after the Closing Date.

(b) Wrong Pockets. In the event that, on or after the Closing, either Party receives payments or funds or, in the case of Sphinx, retains Purchased Assets, or in the case of Arion, receives Excluded Assets, or such Party discovers funds or, in the case of Sphinx, Purchased Assets, or in the case of Arion, Excluded Assets, due or belonging to the other Party pursuant to the terms hereof or any of the Transaction Documents, then the Party receiving or discovering such payments or funds or, in the case of Sphinx, Purchased Assets, or in the case of Arion, Excluded Assets shall promptly forward or Transfer or cause to be promptly forwarded or Transferred such payments or funds or, in the case of Sphinx, Purchased Assets, or in the case of Arion, Excluded Assets, to the proper party (with appropriate endorsements, as applicable), for no additional consideration and will account to such other Party for all such receipts. The Parties acknowledge and agree that, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, there is no right of offset regarding such payments and a Party may not withhold funds received from third parties for the account of the other Party in the event there is a dispute regarding any other issue under this Agreement or any other Transaction Documents. Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section 6.12(b), Sphinx agrees that Arion shall, following the Closing, have the right and authority to endorse any checks or drafts received by Arion in respect of any account receivable of the Business included in the Purchased Assets or reflected in the Final Closing Net Working Capital and Sphinx shall furnish to Arion such evidence of this authority as Arion may reasonably request. Following the Closing, if Arion or its Affiliates receives any mail or packages addressed to Sphinx or its Subsidiaries and delivered to Arion not relating to the Business, the Purchased Assets, the Purchased Shares or the Assumed Liabilities, Arion shall promptly deliver (or cause to be delivered) such mail or packages to Sphinx. Following the Closing, if Sphinx or its Subsidiaries receives any mail or packages delivered to Sphinx relating to the Business, the Purchased Assets, the Purchased Shares or the Assumed Liabilities, Sphinx shall promptly deliver (or cause to be delivered) such mail or packages to Arion. Without limiting the foregoing, if within 60 days after Closing, Arion identifies any Patents that it believes are “Exclusive to the Business”, then provided that Sphinx confirms (such confirmation not to be unreasonably withheld) that such Patents are “Exclusive to the Business”, then such Patents will be deemed to be part of the Purchased Assets and Sphinx will assign such Patents to Arion through an appropriate amendment to the IPMA. For purposes of the immediately preceding sentence, a Patent will be considered “Exclusive to the Business” if (x) all named inventors are or were working within the Business at the time the claimed invention was conceived or first reduced to practice; and (y) all claims in the Patent are exclusively related to the Business, Products or Transferred Technology.

Section 6.13 Privileges. The Parties agree that their respective rights and obligations to maintain, preserve, assert or waive any attorney-client and work product privileges belonging to either Party with respect to the Business and the other businesses of Sphinx or Arion, as applicable (collectively, “Privileges”), shall be governed by the provisions of this Section 6.13. With respect to matters relating to Sphinx’s businesses, the Excluded Assets or the Excluded Liabilities, in each case regardless of whether such matters also relate to the Business, the Purchased Assets or the Assumed Liabilities, and with respect to all business records, documents, communications or other information (collectively, “Information”) of Sphinx or any Affiliate prepared in connection with this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, Sphinx shall have sole authority to determine whether to assert or waive any Privileges, including the right to assert any Privilege against Arion and its Affiliates. Arion and its Affiliates (including, as of the Closing Date, the Purchased Entities) shall take no action without the prior

written consent of Sphinx that would reasonably be expected to result in any waiver of any such Privileges of Sphinx. With respect to matters relating to Arion’s businesses (not including the Business, the Purchased Assets or the Assumed Liabilities prior to Closing) and with respect to all Information of Arion or any Affiliate prepared in connection with this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, Arion shall have sole authority to determine whether to assert or waive any Privileges, including the right to assert any Privilege against Sphinx and its Affiliates. Sphinx and its Affiliates shall take no action without the prior written consent of Arion that would reasonably be expected to result in any waiver of any such Privileges of Arion. After the Closing, Arion shall have sole authority to determine whether to assert or waive any Privileges with respect to matters relating to the Business, the Purchased Assets, the Purchased Shares and the Assumed Liabilities (but not including the Excluded Assets, Excluded Liabilities, Information prepared in connection with this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby or any other potential transaction relating to the Business or related sale process, or matters that relate to the businesses of Sphinx (other than the Business)). However, Arion may not assert any such Privileges of the Purchased Entities, Sphinx or its Affiliates related to pre-Closing advice or communications relating to the Business against Sphinx and its Affiliates; provided, however, that, if the waiver (or failure to assert such Privilege) would reasonably be expected to result in such Privilege being waived in connection with any claim by a third party in connection with the Purchased Assets, the Purchased Shares or the Assumed Liabilities, Sphinx shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, use reasonable best efforts to enter into such reasonable arrangements designed to ensure that such Privilege is not otherwise waived with respect to such third party, including customary joint defense agreements or similar arrangements. Sphinx and its Subsidiaries shall take no action after the Closing without the prior written consent of Arion that would reasonably be expected to result in any waiver of any such Privileges of Arion. The rights and obligations created by this Section 6.13 shall apply to all Information as to which Sphinx, Arion, their respective Subsidiaries or the Purchased Entities would be entitled to assert or has asserted a Privilege without regard to the effect, if any, of the transactions contemplated hereby or by the other Transaction Documents (the “Privileged Information”). Upon receipt by Sphinx or its Subsidiaries, or Arion and its Affiliates (including, as of the Closing Date, the Purchased Entities), as the case may be, of any subpoena, discovery or other request from any third party that actually or arguably calls for the production or disclosure of Privileged Information of the other or if Sphinx or its Subsidiaries or Arion or its Affiliates (including, as of the Closing Date, the Purchased Entities), as the case may be, obtains knowledge that any current or former employee of Sphinx, its Affiliates or the Purchased Entities or Arion or its Affiliates (including, as of the Closing Date, the Purchased Entities), has received any subpoena, discovery or other request from any third party that actually or arguably calls for the production or disclosure of Privileged Information of the other Party, such Party shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, promptly notify the other of the existence of the request and shall provide the other a reasonable opportunity to review the Information and to assert any rights it may have under this Section 6.13 or otherwise to prevent the production or disclosure of Privileged Information. Sphinx’s transfer of any Business Records or other Information to Arion in accordance with this Agreement and Sphinx’s and Arion’s agreement to permit the other to obtain Information existing prior to the Closing are made in reliance on the Parties’ respective agreements, as set forth in this Section 6.13 and Section 6.3, to maintain the confidentiality of information and to take the steps provided herein for the preservation of all Privileges that may belong to or be asserted by Sphinx or Arion, as the case may be. The access to Business Records and other information being granted pursuant to Section 6.3, Section 6.4, Section 6.6, Section 6.9 and Section 9.3, and the disclosure to Arion and Sphinx of Privileged Information relating to the Business or the other businesses of Sphinx or Arion, as applicable, pursuant to this Agreement in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby or any other Transaction Document shall not be asserted by Sphinx or Arion to constitute, or otherwise be deemed, a waiver of any Privilege that has been or may be asserted under this Section 6.13 or otherwise.

Section 6.14 [Reserved].

Section 6.15 Delivery of Business Financial Statements.

(a) During the period from the Agreement Date until the earlier of the Closing Date or termination of this Agreement pursuant to Article 10, Sphinx shall deliver to Arion unaudited combined non-GAAP balance sheets and income statements of the Business prepared on the same basis, and subjected to the same level of internal and external review, as the Sphinx Unaudited Financial Statements, including the notes thereto, for each fiscal quarter ending at least 45 days before the Closing Date (the “Required Financial Information”), in each case, as soon as reasonably practicable following, but in any event within 45 days after, the date of the applicable fiscal quarter end. Arion shall, promptly on request by Sphinx, reimburse Sphinx for all of the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses of Sphinx incurred by Sphinx in providing the balance sheets and income statements described in this Section 6.15(a).

(b) From and after the date that is 60 days after the Agreement Date, Sphinx shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and Representatives to, use their reasonable efforts to cooperate and assist Arion with the preparation of audited “carve-out” combined financial statements with respect to the Business. Arion shall, promptly on request by Sphinx, reimburse Sphinx for the reasonable, out-of-pocket costs incurred by Sphinx and owed to external resources in providing the cooperation and assistance described in this Section 6.15(b) (it being understood that Sphinx shall be permitted to retain external resources that it determines in its good faith sole discretion are appropriate to satisfy its obligations under this Section 6.15(b)).

Section 6.16 Arion Financing.

(a) Arion shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, use its reasonable best efforts to obtain the Debt Financing on the terms and subject only to the conditions described in the Debt Financing Commitment and the Fee Letters, including using its reasonable best efforts to (i) promptly negotiate definitive agreements on the terms and subject only to the conditions contained in the Debt Financing Commitment (including any market flex provisions) so that such agreements are in effect on the Closing Date, (ii) promptly satisfy (or obtain a waiver to) or cause the satisfaction (or waiver) of all conditions in the Debt Financing Commitment and the definitive agreements for the Debt Financing, (iii) consummate the Debt Financing on the terms and subject only to the conditions (including accepting to the fullest extent any modifications to the Debt Financing pursuant to any market flex provisions) contained in the Debt Financing Commitment (including by causing the Debt Financing Sources and the other Persons providing the Debt Financing to provide such Debt Financing) on or prior to the date on which the Closing is required to occur pursuant to Section 8.1, (iv) enforce its rights under the Debt Financing Commitment in the event of any breach thereof, (v) comply with and maintain in effect the Debt Financing Commitment on the terms and conditions thereof and (vi) in the event that the conditions set forth in Section 7.1, Section 7.3 and in the Debt Financing Commitment have been satisfied or, upon funding would be satisfied, cause the Debt Financing Sources to fund the full amount of the Debt Financing at or prior to the Closing (or if lesser, the Required Amount).

(b) In the event that, notwithstanding the use of reasonable best efforts by Arion to satisfy its obligations under Section 6.16(a), any portion of the Debt Financing becomes unavailable on the terms and subject only to the conditions (including any market flex provisions) contemplated in the Debt Financing Commitment (unless such portion is not reasonably required to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement), Arion shall promptly notify Sphinx (and in any event, within two Business Days) thereof and use its reasonable best efforts to obtain alternative

108

financing for the Required Amount as promptly as reasonably practicable following the occurrence of such event; provided that such alternative financing shall not have any of the effects described in clauses (A) through (E) of clause (c)(i) below or be directly or indirectly provided by Sphinx or its Affiliates; provided, further, that Arion shall not be obligated to seek or obtain financing on terms or conditions materially less favorable (taken as a whole) to Arion than those contained in the Debt Financing Commitments (including any market flex provisions). Arion shall deliver to Sphinx true and complete copies of all agreements pursuant to which any such alternative source shall have committed to provide Arion with any portion of the Debt Financing substantially concurrently with the execution thereof.

(c) Arion shall have the right from time to time to amend, replace, supplement or otherwise modify, or waive any of its rights under, the Debt Financing Commitment or definitive agreement relating to the Debt Financing; provided, however, that (i) without the prior written consent of Sphinx, no such amendment, replacement, supplement, modification or waiver shall (A) reduce (or have the effect of reducing) the aggregate amount of the Debt Financing (including by increasing the amount of fees to be paid or original issue discount in respect of the Debt Financing other than as set forth in the Fee Letters or as covered by a corresponding increase in any equity commitment) unless the representations in Section 5.12(d) hereof (as though made at the time of the effectuation of such amendment, modification, supplement or replacement) shall remain true and correct after taking into account such reduction, (B) add conditions precedent to the Debt Financing or amend, replace, supplement or modify any existing conditions precedent to the Debt Financing in a manner adverse to Arion (or its Affiliates) or that would reasonably be expected to prevent, impede or delay or make less likely to occur the funding of the Debt Financing (or satisfaction of the conditions to the Debt Financing), (C) reasonably be expected to prevent, impede or materially delay the availability of the Debt Financing, (D) adversely impact the ability of Arion to enforce or cause the enforcement of its rights under the Debt Financing Commitment or the definitive agreements relating to the Debt Financing or (E) impose obligations on Sphinx or its Subsidiaries without Sphinx’s consent and (ii) it is understood and agreed that Arion may amend the Debt Financing Commitment to add lenders, arrangers, bookrunners, agents, managers, commitment parties or similar entities that have not executed the Debt Financing Commitment as of the Agreement Date.

(d) To the extent Arion obtains alternative financing pursuant to Section 6.16(b), or amends, replaces, supplements, modifies or waives any of the Financing pursuant to Section 6.16(c), references to the “Debt Financing” and “Debt Financing Commitment” (and other like terms in this Agreement) shall be deemed to refer to such alternative financing, or the Financing as so amended, replaced, supplemented, modified or waived.

(e) Arion shall keep Sphinx informed on a timely basis upon reasonable request and in reasonable detail of the status of Arion’s efforts to arrange and obtain the Debt Financing. Without limiting the foregoing, Arion shall notify Sphinx promptly (and in any event within two Business Days) if at any time prior to the Closing Date: (i) the Debt Financing Commitment expires or is terminated for any reason, (ii) Arion obtains knowledge of any material breach or default by any party to any Debt Financing Commitment, (iii) Arion receives any written communication from any Person providing a Debt Financing Commitment with respect to any (A) actual, potential or threatened breach, default, termination or repudiation by any party to the Debt Financing Commitment with respect to a material provision of the Debt Financing Commitment or (B) a material dispute or disagreement between or among any parties to the Debt Financing Commitment with respect to the obligation to fund the Debt Financing or the amount of the Debt Financing to be

109

funded at Closing or (iv) any other event or development occurs that Arion should reasonably expect may have a material and adverse impact on the ability of Arion to obtain all or any material portion of the Debt Financing contemplated by the Debt Financing Commitment on the terms, in the manner or from the sources contemplated by the Debt Financing Commitment or the definitive documents related to the Debt Financing or Arion, for any reason, otherwise no longer believes in good faith that it will be able to obtain all or any portion of the Debt Financing on the terms described in the Debt Financing Commitment. As soon as reasonably practicable (but in any event within two Business Days after the date Sphinx delivers to Arion a written request therefor), Arion shall provide any information reasonably requested by Sphinx relating to the status of the Financing and any circumstance referred to in clause (i) through (iv) of the immediately preceding sentence.

(f) Sphinx shall use its reasonable best efforts to provide, shall cause its Subsidiaries and their respective representatives to use reasonable best efforts to provide such reasonable cooperation in connection with the arrangement of the Debt Financing as may be reasonably requested by Arion, in each case at Arion’s sole expense, including its reasonable best efforts to (i) participate (and use reasonable best efforts to cause members of senior management of Sphinx and/or the Business to participate) in meetings, presentations and due diligence sessions with the Debt Financing Sources, (ii) furnish Arion and the Debt Financing Sources and rating agencies with historical and projected financial and other pertinent information regarding the Business as may be reasonably requested by Arion or the Debt Financing Sources in connection with the Debt Financing, in each case to the extent reasonably available to Sphinx, (iii) assist Arion and the Debt Financing Sources in the preparation of customary marketing materials for any portion of the Debt Financing, (iv) provide reasonable and customary cooperation with any marketing efforts of Arion and the Debt Financing Sources for any portion of the Debt Financing (including executing customary authorization letters authorizing the distribution of information about Sphinx to prospective lenders and containing a customary representation to the Debt Financing Sources that the public side versions of marketing materials, if any, do not include material non-public information about the Business for purposes of U.S. federal and state securities laws), (v) facilitate the pledging of collateral, (vi) furnish Arion and the Debt Financing Sources at least three Business Days prior to the Closing Date with all customary documentation and other information required with respect to the Debt Financing under applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations as is reasonably requested in writing by the Lead Arrangers at least 10 days prior to the Closing Date and (vii) satisfy the conditions precedent set forth in the Debt Financing Commitment to the extent satisfaction thereof requires the cooperation, and is within the control, of any Sphinx, its Subsidiaries or their respective representatives; provided that (x) neither Sphinx nor any of its Subsidiaries (including, prior to Closing, the Purchased Entities) shall be required to pledge any assets as collateral, execute any definitive agreement in respect of the Debt Financing or any closing certificate, pay any commitment or other similar fee, incur any other Liability in connection with the Debt Financing or issue any offering memo, bank book or similar document with respect to the Debt Financing and (y) no obligation of any Purchased Entity under any document, certificate or instrument executed pursuant to this Section 6.16(f) shall be effective, in each case of (x) and (y), until the Closing (other than, in the case of clause (x) or (y), executing customary authorization letters authorizing the distribution of information about Sphinx to prospective lenders). Arion shall be responsible for all reasonable and documented fees and expenses related to the Debt Financing and shall promptly reimburse upon request of Sphinx, all documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable and documented fees and expenses of counsel) incurred by Sphinx or its Subsidiaries in connection with the cooperation of Sphinx as contemplated by this Section 6.16. Arion shall, and hereby agrees to, indemnify and hold harmless Sphinx, its Subsidiaries and their respective representatives from and against any and all Losses suffered or incurred by them in connection with

110

the arrangement of the Debt Financing except to the extent such Losses arise out of or result from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Sphinx, its Subsidiaries or their respective Representatives. All non-public or other Confidential Information provided by Sphinx or its representatives pursuant to this Agreement will be kept confidential in accordance with the Confidentiality Agreement, except that Arion will be permitted to disclose such information to any financing sources or prospective financing sources and other financial institutions and investors that may become parties to the Debt Financing and to any underwriters, initial purchasers or placement agents in connection with the Debt Financing (and, in each case, to their respective counsel and auditors) so long as such Persons (A) agree to be bound by the Confidentiality Agreement as if parties thereto or (B) are subject to other confidentiality undertakings that are customary or are reasonably satisfactory to Sphinx and of which Sphinx is a beneficiary.

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Arion acknowledges and agrees that its obligations to consummate the Purchase Transactions or any other transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Transaction Documents is not contingent upon Arion obtaining the Debt Financing or any other third-party financing. In the event that Arion fails to obtain the full Required Amount at or after the time the Closing would otherwise occur until the Outside Date, without prejudice to any other remedy which may be available to the Parties by Law or this Agreement, Sphinx may, in its sole discretion, elect the alternative set forth on Schedule 6.16(g) of the Sphinx Disclosure Letter. Sphinx, its controlled Affiliates and its Subsidiaries shall not be, and shall not take any actions to become, whether directly or indirectly (including through any Debt Financing Source or the syndication of any Debt Financing), a lender of the Debt Financing or a Debt Financing Source, including pursuant to any alternative debt financing.

Section 6.17 Transition Services.

(a) Subject to Section 6.17(b), as promptly as practicable following the execution of this Agreement, Arion and Sphinx agree to negotiate in good faith concerning any additions, modifications, adjustments or clarifications with respect to the schedules set forth in Schedule 6.17 of the Sphinx Disclosure Letter (as may be amended by the Parties in accordance with the terms of this Section 6.17, the “Preliminary Transition Service Schedules”) so as to finalize the Transition Service Schedules to be attached to the Transition Services Agreement.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, Sphinx will not be required to provide a Transition Service that (i) is an Excluded Service; or (ii) either (A) was not provided to the Business by Sphinx, including in connection with the Shared Services, during the 12-month period preceding the Agreement Date or (B) is not reasonably necessary in connection with the transition of the Business to Arion as conducted during the 12-month period preceding the Agreement Date; provided that, if Sphinx did not provide a Transition Service as set forth in subsection (ii)(A) above, if such Transition Service is reasonably necessary in connection with the transition of the Business to Arion as currently conducted and is so requested by Arion, the parties will negotiate in good faith to establish a Transition Service Schedule (including applicable fees payable to Sphinx in accordance with this Section 6.17) pursuant to which Sphinx will provide an additional Transition Service solely in the form of assistance and cooperation reasonably required to enable a third party service providers to provide all elements of the requested Transition Service, with such third party service provider to be selected and managed (and paid for) by Arion at its sole cost and expense.

(c) Unless otherwise agreed by Arion and Sphinx or set forth in the Preliminary Transition Service Schedules, no Transition Period will last for more than 12 months following the

111

Closing Date (excluding any extensions made to the Transition Period in accordance with the terms of the Transition Services Agreement).

(d) Arion and Sphinx agree that, unless otherwise provided in the Preliminary Transition Service Schedules, the pricing for any Transition Service shall be equal to the Service Provider’s fully-loaded cost (which shall include actual cost and pro-rated overhead allocation), which will be determined in a manner consistent with the methodology used to calculate fees for similar Transition Services, if any, as set forth in the applicable Pre-Closing Transition Service Schedule.

(e) Any requests to add additional Transition Services to the Preliminary Transition Service Schedules or to make any other modifications, adjustments or clarifications to the Preliminary Transition Service Schedules must be made in writing by the requesting Party within 60 days after the Agreement Date. To the extent that, notwithstanding such good faith efforts, Arion and Sphinx are unable to agree upon the Transition Service Schedules to be attached to the Transition Services Agreement prior to the earlier of 60 days after the Agreement Date and the date this Agreement has been validly terminated pursuant to Article 10, such unresolved matters shall be referred for resolution to the chief financial officer of Sphinx, on the one hand, and chief financial officer of Arion, on the other hand, who shall work together in good faith to reach final resolution within 10 days of such referral. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that 120 days after the Agreement Date, neither the Closing has occurred nor this Agreement has been validly terminated pursuant to Article 10, either Arion or Sphinx may request in writing to add additional Transition Services or make other modifications, adjustments or clarifications to the Preliminary Transition Service Schedules that meet the conditions described in Section 6.17(b), and the Parties shall negotiate in good faith concerning such modifications, adjustments or clarifications in accordance with the terms of this Section 6.17; provided that if any such matters remain unresolved as of the Closing, the Parties shall continue such negotiations after Closing in accordance with and subject to the terms of the Transition Services Agreement.

(f) Except as otherwise expressly provided in the Transition Services Agreement, and subject to Section 2.6, all Shared Services provided to the Business by Sphinx, including pursuant to a Contract that is the subject of Section 2.6 shall cease as of the Closing Date.

(g) As promptly as practicable following the Agreement Date, and solely for the purposes of defining the damages limitations for Section 6.2(b) of the Transition Services Agreement, Arion and Sphinx agree to negotiate in good faith to establish an estimate of amounts to be paid to Service Provider under the Transition Services Agreement for all applicable Transition Services identified by Arion and Sphinx in the Transition Service Schedules as being within the same functional area (as such areas are identified on Exhibit A of the Transition Services Agreement), and at the Closing, subject to Section 6.17(e), Exhibit A to the Transition Services Agreement shall be updated to reflect such agreed upon amounts.

(h) Capitalized terms used in this Section 6.17 but not otherwise defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Transition Services Agreement.

Section 6.18 Guarantees. Arion recognizes that Sphinx and certain of its Subsidiaries have provided credit support to the Business, the Purchased Assets or the Purchased Entities pursuant to guarantees, letters of credit, bonds, sureties and other credit support or assurances provided by Sphinx or its Subsidiaries in support of any obligation of the Business (the “Business Guarantees”), each as set forth on Schedule 6.18 of the Sphinx Disclosure Letter, and that Sphinx may supplement Schedule 6.18 of the Sphinx Disclosure

112

Letter from time to time prior to Closing to include any additional Business Guarantees entered into after the Agreement Date (to the extent permitted by Section 6.1(a) of this Agreement). Following the Agreement Date, Arion and Sphinx shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to obtain from the respective beneficiary, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Sphinx, on or before the Closing Date, valid and binding written releases of Sphinx and its Subsidiaries, as applicable, from any Liability, whether arising before, on or after the Closing Date, under any Business Guarantees listed on Schedule 6.18 of the Sphinx Disclosure Letter (as supplemented prior to the Closing Date) (such Business Guarantees, the “Scheduled Guarantees”), which release shall be effective as of the Closing, including, in the case of Arion and its Subsidiaries, as applicable, by providing substitute guarantees, furnishing letters of credit, posting surety or performance bonds or making other arrangements as the beneficiary may reasonably request. If any Scheduled Guarantee has not been released as of the Closing Date, then Arion and Sphinx shall continue to use their respective reasonable best efforts after the Closing to cause as promptly as practicable the complete and unconditional release of Sphinx and its Subsidiaries under such Business Guarantee. Arion shall, and hereby agrees to, indemnify and hold harmless Sphinx and its Subsidiaries from and after the Closing for any amounts required to be paid under any Business Guarantees that relate to the post-Closing period (it being understood and agreed that Sphinx and its Subsidiaries shall be responsible for all costs and expenses associated with such Business Guarantees prior to the Closing), except as a result of Sphinx or any of its Subsidiaries’ gross negligence or willful misconduct.

Section 6.19 Existing Intercompany Agreements and Arrangements.

(a) Except as set forth in Section 6.19(b), Arion acknowledges and agrees that all Sphinx Intercompany Agreements, and all rights and obligations of the Business or the Purchased Entities under such Sphinx Intercompany Agreements will be terminated at or prior to the Closing. No such terminated Sphinx Intercompany Agreement or any arrangement, commitment or understanding relating thereto (including any provision thereof that purports to survive termination) shall be of any further force or effect after the Effective Time. Arion and its Affiliates (including, after the Closing, the Purchased Entities) shall have no Liability or obligation in respect of such Sphinx Intercompany Agreement, whether arising prior to, on or after the Closing Date.

(b) The provisions of Section 6.19(a) shall not apply to any of the following agreements, arrangements, commitments or understandings (or to any of the provisions thereof):

Section 6.20 Cooperation in Litigation. Without limiting the obligations of the Parties under Article 9, from and after the Closing, the Parties shall reasonably cooperate with each other in the investigation, prosecution or defense of any Proceedings (other than Proceedings with respect to Taxes) arising from or related to the conduct of the Business, the ownership, assets or Liabilities of the Purchased Entities, the ownership, operation or use of the Purchased Assets, the Assumed Liabilities, the Excluded Assets or the Excluded Liabilities and, in each case, involving one or more third parties. Such reasonable cooperation shall include using reasonable best efforts in (a) providing, and causing their respective Affiliates or Subsidiaries, as applicable, to provide, documentary or other evidence, (b) implementing, and causing their respective Affiliates to implement, record retention, litigation holds or other documentary or evidence

113

policies or (c) making, and causing their respective Affiliates to make, available directors, officers and employees to give depositions or testimony, all as reasonably requested by the requesting Party from time to time. Except as otherwise provided in Article 9, the Party requesting such cooperation shall pay the reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in providing such cooperation (including reasonable legal fees and disbursements) by the Party (or Affiliate thereof, as the case may be) providing such cooperation and by its officers, directors, employees and agents, but not including reimbursing such Party (or Affiliate thereof, as the case may be) or its officers, directors, employees and agents for their time spent in such cooperation.

Section 6.21 Exclusivity. During the period from the Agreement Date until the earlier of the Closing Date and termination of this Agreement pursuant to Article 10, Sphinx will not, nor will it authorize or permit any of its Subsidiaries or Representatives to, directly or indirectly: (a) solicit or knowingly encourage, facilitate or induce the making, submission or announcement of, or take any other action designed or reasonably likely to facilitate, any inquiry, expression of interest, proposal or offer concerning the sale or other conveyance of any portion of the Business as an alternative to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (an “Acquisition Proposal”) from any Person other than Arion or its Affiliates or Representatives, (b) deliver or make available to any Person any nonpublic information with respect to the Business or afford access to the properties, books, records or representatives of the Business to any Person (other than Arion or its Affiliates or Representatives, or as required by applicable Law) or (c) negotiate, or accept any proposals, offers or inquiries from, or enter into any Contract with, any Person relating to or in connection with any Acquisition Proposal. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in no event shall any transaction or proposal with respect to an acquisition of control of Sphinx (whether by way of merger, purchase of capital stock, purchase of assets, joint venture, license, lease or otherwise) constitute an Acquisition Proposal. In the event that Sphinx or any of its Affiliates or Representatives receives an unsolicited Acquisition Proposal from any Person after the Agreement Date and prior to the Closing Date, Sphinx will provide Arion with notice of such event and a summary of the material terms of such Acquisition Proposal; provided, however, that Sphinx will not be required to disclose the identity of the Person or group of Persons making such Acquisition Proposal.

Section 7.3 Conditions Precedent to Obligation of the Arion Entities. The obligation of the Arion Entities to consummate and cause the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be subject to the satisfaction (or waiver by Arion) on or prior to the Closing Date of each of the following conditions:

116

(a) Accuracy of Representations and Warranties of Sphinx. The representations and warranties of Sphinx contained in this Agreement (other than the Fundamental Representations of Sphinx) shall have been and be true and correct (without giving effect to any limitation as to “materiality”, “material,” “in all material respects” or “Sphinx Material Adverse Effect”, or other derivations of the word “material” used alone or in a phrase that have a similar impact or effect, set forth therein) as of the Agreement Date and as of the Closing Date as though made on the Closing Date (except to the extent expressly made as of an earlier date, in which case as of such earlier date), other than for such failures to be true and correct (without giving effect to any limitation as to “materiality,” “material,” “in all material respects” or “Sphinx Material Adverse Effect,” or other derivations of the word “material” used alone or in a phrase that have a similar impact or effect, set forth therein) that would not have, individually or in the aggregate, a Sphinx Material Adverse Effect. The Fundamental Representations of Sphinx (other than the representation and warranty set forth in Section 4.15(b)) shall have been and be true and correct as of the Agreement Date and as of the Closing Date as though made on the Closing Date (except to the extent expressly made as of an earlier date, in which case as of such earlier date). The Fundamental Representation set forth in Section 4.15(b) shall have been and be true and correct as of the Agreement Date and as of the Closing Date as though made on the Closing Date, other than such failures to be true and correct that would not have a material and adverse effect on the value of the Business, taken as a whole (for purposes of clarity, the parties acknowledge and agree that the words “material and adverse effect on the value of the Business, taken as a whole” were intentionally chosen to be separate and distinct from the defined term Sphinx Material Adverse Effect and the parties do not intend or desire for such definition of Sphinx Material Adverse Effect to apply to the foregoing); provided that in the event that Arion believes that the condition set forth in this sentence is not satisfied, Arion shall promptly identify with reasonable specificity what assets it believes are required to satisfy such condition and if Sphinx agrees to deliver such identified assets, this condition shall be deemed satisfied; provided, however, for the avoidance of doubt, Sphinx may instead dispute that such identified assets are required to satisfy this condition, and such matter shall be resolved as a dispute hereunder. Arion shall have received a certificate dated as of the Closing Date and signed on behalf of Sphinx by an authorized officer of Sphinx to such effect.

(b) Covenants of Sphinx. Sphinx shall have complied in all material respects with all covenants contained in this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents to be performed by it prior to the Closing. Arion shall have received a certificate dated as of the Closing Date and signed by an authorized officer of Sphinx to such effect.

(c) Sphinx Material Adverse Effect. Since the Agreement Date, there shall not have occurred and be continuing a Sphinx Material Adverse Effect.

(d) Transaction Documents. Sphinx shall have duly executed and delivered, or caused each of the relevant Other Sphinx Entities to duly execute and deliver, the Transaction Documents (other than the Sphinx Other Agreements), to the extent a party thereto, and each such Transaction Document shall be in full force and effect (assuming due execution and delivery by the other parties thereto).

ARTICLE 8

At the Closing, (a) Arion shall (x) issue and deliver the Equity Consideration to Sphinx (including certificates evidencing the Equity Consideration duly endorsed in blank or with stock powers duly executed in proper form for transfer or other procedure required by applicable Law) and (y) deliver the Estimated Cash Consideration to Sphinx, in each case as provided in Section 3.1, (b) Arion shall deliver the officer’s certificates contemplated by Section 7.2(a) and Section 7.2(b), (c) Arion shall deliver to Sphinx a file-stamped copy of the Arion Charter Amendment evidencing its filing with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware and (d) Arion shall, or shall cause such of the Other Arion Entities to, duly execute and deliver to Sphinx the Transaction Documents (other than this Agreement) to the extent a party thereto, and each such Transaction Document shall be in full force and effect (assuming due execution and delivery by the other parties thereto).

118

(or equivalent if such concept is recognized by the applicable jurisdiction), in each case to the extent applicable and readily available in the applicable jurisdiction.

ARTICLE 9
INDEMNIFICATION

Section 9.1 Indemnification.

(a) Subject to Section 6.9 relating to Taxes, following the Closing and subject to the terms and conditions of this Article 9, Sphinx shall for itself (where it is acting as Sphinx) and otherwise as agent for the Other Sphinx Entities indemnify and hold harmless Arion, its Subsidiaries (including, from and after the Closing, the Purchased Entities), Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees, stockholders, successors and assigns (each, an “Arion Indemnified Party” or collectively, the “Arion Indemnified Parties”) from and against, and shall compensate and reimburse each Arion Indemnified Party for (i) all Losses actually incurred, sustained, suffered or paid by such Arion Indemnified Party arising out of or as a result of any Excluded Liabilities, including Sphinx’s obligations under Section 6.7(j), and (ii) any amount of Transferred Pension Liabilities, as calculated in accordance with the principles set forth on Schedule 9.1(a), in excess of $1,500,000 (such Losses, individually and collectively, the “Arion Losses”). An Arion Indemnified Party shall not be entitled to recover more than once for the same Arion Loss or the same sets of facts giving rise to such Arion Loss.

(b) Subject to Section 6.9 relating to Taxes, following the Closing and subject to the terms and conditions provided in this Article 9, Arion shall indemnify and hold harmless Sphinx, its controlled Affiliates, Subsidiaries and their respective officers, directors, employees, stockholders, successors and assigns (each, a “Sphinx Indemnified Party” or collectively, the “Sphinx Indemnified Parties”) from and against, and shall compensate and reimburse each Sphinx Indemnified Party for, all Losses actually incurred, sustained, suffered or paid by such Sphinx Indemnified Party arising out of or as a result of (i) the Subcontracted Work Indemnity (if any), (ii) as expressly set forth in the final sentence of Section 2.7(c) (if any), (iii) as expressly set forth in the second to last sentence of Section 6.16(f), (iv) as expressly set forth in the final sentence of Section 6.18 or (v) any Assumed Liabilities (such Losses, individually and collectively, the “Sphinx Losses”). A Sphinx Indemnified Party shall not be entitled to recover more than once for the same Sphinx Loss or the same sets of facts giving rise to such Sphinx Loss.

Section 9.2 Certain Limitations.

(a) The representations and warranties of Sphinx and Arion contained in Article 4 and Article 5, respectively, of this Agreement and in any other Closing Transfer Document shall not survive and shall expire, terminate and cease to have any further force or effect upon the consummation of the Closing. The covenants and agreements of the Parties contained in this Agreement which require performance following the Closing shall survive the Closing until the date or dates explicitly specified therein or, if not so specified, until the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations with respect to the matters contained therein; provided that notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the obligations of Arion and Affiliates with respect to Assumed Liabilities, and the obligations of Sphinx and its Subsidiaries with respect to Excluded Liabilities (other than the indemnification obligations with respect to Excluded Tax Liabilities pursuant to Section 6.9(a)(i)), shall survive the Closing; provided, further, that the indemnification obligations with respect to Excluded Tax Liabilities pursuant to Section 6.9(a)(i) and Liabilities pursuant to Section 6.9(a)

119

(ii) shall survive the Closing Date until the expiration of the applicable statutory period of limitations, in each case with respect to the underlying liabilities of issue. The Parties acknowledge and agree that with respect to any claim that any Party may have against any other Party that is permitted pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, the survival periods set forth and agreed to in this Section 9.2(a) shall govern when any such claim may be brought and shall replace and supersede any statute of limitations that may otherwise be applicable.

(b) For purposes of this Article 9, an Indemnified Party shall be entitled to recover special damages from the Indemnifying Party solely to the extent such special damages are awarded to a third party by a Governmental Authority or arbitrator in connection with a Third-Party Claim.

(c) If the Indemnified Party receives any payment from an Indemnifying Party in respect of any Losses pursuant to Section 9.1(a) or Section 9.1(b), as the case may be, and the Indemnified Party would have recovered all or a part of such Losses from a third party (a “Potential Contributor”) based on the underlying claim asserted against the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party shall, to the extent permitted by Law and any pertinent Contract, assign such of its rights to proceed against the Potential Contributor as are necessary to permit the Indemnifying Party to recover from the Potential Contributor the amount of such payment; provided that the Indemnified Party shall not be required to assign any right to proceed against a Potential Contributor if the Indemnified Party determines in its reasonable discretion that such assignment would be materially detrimental to its business, reputation or future business prospects or if such Potential Contributor is a customer of the Business.

(d) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, in no event will any Arion Indemnified Party have any right to indemnification (and Arion Losses shall not be deemed to have been incurred) with respect to any matter to the extent that such matter is accrued or reflected in the calculation of the Final Cash Consideration pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

Section 9.3 Indemnification Procedures, Third-Party Claims.

(a) General Claim Procedure. Except with respect to Tax Claims which are addressed in Section 6.9, in respect of any claim regarding indemnification for any Loss or Liability under this Agreement, the Party making such claim shall have the burden of proof that such Party is entitled to such indemnification. In the event any Indemnified Party should have a claim against any Indemnifying Party for indemnification of Losses hereunder, the Notifying Party shall deliver a notice of such claim to the Indemnifying Party within 20 Business Days of becoming aware of the facts underlying such claim, stating in reasonable detail the nature and basis of such claim (including, to the extent such claim relates to a Third-Party Claim, reasonable details of each claim made by the relevant third party in connection with such Third-Party Claim and the provision of copies of the relevant material documents received by the Indemnified Party evidencing such Third-Party Claim), the amount of the claim (to the extent known or reasonably estimable), the basis for the indemnification sought and all material documents reflecting or evidencing the basis for such claim; provided that the failure to provide any such notice, information or documents will not relieve the Indemnifying Party of any liability that it may have to any Indemnified Party or Notifying Party for indemnification of Losses hereunder, except to the extent that the defense of such action is actually and materially prejudiced thereby or to the extent that the amount of Losses for which the Indemnifying Party is responsible is materially increased thereby.

120

(b) If the Indemnifying Party notifies the Notifying Party that it does not dispute the claim described in such notice, or fails to notify the Notifying Party within 30 Business Days after delivery of such notice by the Notifying Party whether the Indemnifying Party disputes the claim described in such notice, the Loss in the amount specified in the Notifying Party’s notice shall be conclusively deemed a liability of the Indemnifying Party and, subject to the limitations set forth in this Article 9, the Indemnifying Party shall pay the amount of such Loss to the Indemnified Party on demand. If the Indemnifying Party has timely disputed its Liability with respect to such claim, the Indemnifying Party and the Notifying Party shall proceed in good faith to negotiate a resolution of such dispute and, if not resolved through negotiations, such dispute shall be resolved by litigation subject to Section 11.9. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Indemnifying Party shall pay the amount of any such Loss no later than 10 Business Days following the final determination of the Indemnifying Party’s Liability (whether such determination is made pursuant to the procedures set forth in this Section 9.3, by written agreement between the Indemnifying Party and the Notifying Party or by final adjudication subject to Section 11.9).

(i) Within 10 Business Days after the receipt by any Indemnified Party of a notice of any claim by any third party, or any Proceeding by any third party, that may be subject to indemnification under this Article 9 (a “Third-Party Claim”), including any claim or Proceeding relating to any Excluded Liability or any Assumed Liability, the Notifying Party shall give written notice of such Third-Party Claim to the Indemnifying Party in accordance with Section 9.3(a) above (the “Third-Party Claim Notice”). Thereafter, the Notifying Party shall deliver to the Indemnifying Party, promptly after any Indemnified Party’s receipt thereof, copies of all material notices and documents (including court papers) received by the Indemnified Party, or filed or published, relating to the Third-Party Claim. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the failure to provide any Third-Party Claim Notice or such other notices or documents described herein will not relieve the Indemnifying Party of any liability that it may have to any Indemnified Party or Notifying Party for indemnification of Losses hereunder, except to the extent that the defense of such action is actually prejudiced thereby or to the extent that the amount of Losses for which the Indemnifying Party is responsible is increased thereby.

(ii) If a Third-Party Claim is made against an Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense thereof. In addition, the Indemnifying Party may elect (by written notice to the Indemnified Party within 45 Business Days after the Indemnifying Party receives notice of such claim, or at any time thereafter if a diligent and good faith defense of such claim is not being, or ceases to be, conducted by the Indemnified Party and such conduct is not remedied within 10 Business Days after notice in writing to the Indemnified Party by the Indemnifying Party) to assume and control the defense thereof with counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to direct such defense if (A) the Indemnifying Party fails to conduct such defense in a diligent manner, (B) the Third-Party Claim is in respect of any matter involving potential criminal liability or seeks as a remedy the imposition of an equitable remedy that, if granted, would be binding upon the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates, (C) the Indemnified Party reasonably believes an adverse determination with respect to the Third-Party Claim would be materially detrimental or materially adverse to the Indemnified Party’s reputation or future business prospects or (D) the Indemnified Party has been advised by counsel that a

121

reasonable likelihood exists of a conflict of interest between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party (other than as a result of the operation of this Article 9). Should the Indemnifying Party so elect to assume the defense of a Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to the Indemnified Party for legal expenses subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof for so long as it continues to direct such defense. If the Indemnifying Party assumes such defense, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate in the defense thereof and to employ, at its own expense, counsel separate from the counsel employed by the Indemnifying Party, it being understood that the Indemnifying Party shall control such defense and shall be empowered to make any settlement with respect to such Third-Party Claim, subject to the terms of this Section 9.3(c). If and solely to the extent that the underlying Third-Party Claim is determined to be indemnifiable hereunder, the Indemnifying Party shall be liable to indemnify the Indemnified Party for any reasonable fees and expenses of counsel employed by the Indemnified Party in defense of such Third-Party Claim for any period during which the Indemnifying Party has not assumed the defense thereof.

(iii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to assume the defense of any Third-Party Claim if the Indemnified Party is the only Person with actual or potential liability with respect to the Third-Party Claim and the Indemnified Party irrevocably waives any rights it may have to indemnification under this Article 9 with respect to such Third-Party Claim.

(iv) Each of the Parties shall cooperate reasonably, and shall cause their Subsidiaries to cooperate reasonably, in the defense or prosecution (or settlement) of any Third-Party Claim against any of them. Such cooperation shall include using commercially reasonable efforts in (A) the retention and (upon the reasonable request of an Indemnifying Party or other Party involved in such claim) the provision of documents, records and information that are reasonably relevant to such Third-Party Claim upon reasonable request therefor (subject to the receiving Party’s agreement to appropriate provisions for maintaining confidentiality and privilege in a manner consistent with Section 6.3 and Section 6.13) and (B) making employees available on any basis reasonably requested by such Party to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder or otherwise relating to the Third-Party Claim.

(v) Whether or not the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of a Third-Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall not admit any Liability with respect to, or settle, compromise or discharge, such Third-Party Claim without the Indemnifying Party’s prior written consent (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) unless the Indemnified Party irrevocably waives its right to indemnification under this Article 9 with respect to such Third-Party Claim. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of a Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party may compromise or settle the same; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall give the Indemnified Party notice reasonably in advance of any proposed compromise or settlement and in no event shall the Indemnifying Party compromise or settle any Third-Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, unless such compromise or settlement (i) provides for no relief other than the payment of monetary damages borne solely by the Indemnifying Party, (ii) does not include any admission of wrongdoing or violation of Law on the part of the Indemnified Party or its Subsidiaries and (iii) includes an unconditional release from all liability or obligation of

122

the Indemnified Party, its Subsidiaries, Affiliates and their respective Representatives in respect thereof given by the third party who brought such Third-Party Claim. For the avoidance of doubt, the Indemnifying Party shall have no obligation or right to obtain any settlement, compromise, discharge or release with respect to any portion of a Third-Party Claim that is not indemnifiable by the Indemnifying Party hereunder.

(vi) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the provisions of this Section 9.3 shall not apply to any claim with respect to Taxes, which shall be governed solely by Section 6.9.

(vii) In the case of any Third-Party Claims where the Indemnifying Party reasonably believes that it would be appropriate to settle such claim using equitable remedies (i.e., remedies involving the future activity and conduct of the Business), the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall work together in good faith to agree to a settlement; provided, however, that no Party shall be under any obligation to agree to any such settlement.

Section 9.4 Treatment of Indemnification Payments. Any payment made pursuant to the indemnification obligations arising under this Agreement shall be treated as an adjustment to the Total Consideration.

Section 9.5 Remedies Exclusive. Following the Closing, with the exception of (a) the matters covered by Section 3.5 and Section 6.9 and the reimbursement obligations set forth in Section 2.8, Section 2.9, Section 3.4, Section 6.3(c), Section 6.6(c), Section 6.7(s), Section 6.8, Section 6.15, Section 6.16 and Section 10.3(c) and (b) remedies awarded by a court of competent jurisdiction based on a judgment that Sphinx or Arion committed actual and intentional common law fraud with scienter, the indemnification rights and associated time limits set forth in this Article 9 shall constitute the sole and exclusive remedy for money damages and shall be in lieu of any other remedies for money damages that may be available to the Indemnified Parties under any other agreement or pursuant to any statutory or common Law (including Environmental Law), whether in contract, tort, equity or otherwise, with respect to any Losses, Liabilities or Proceedings (including legal, expert and consultant fees and expenses) of any kind or nature incurred directly or indirectly resulting from or arising out of, under or with respect to any of this Agreement (including certificates delivered pursuant to Article 7) or the Closing Transfer Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (it being understood that nothing in this Section 9.5 shall affect the Parties’ rights to specific performance, injunctive relief or other similar non-monetary equitable remedies with respect to the covenants referred to in this Agreement to be performed before, at or after the Closing); for clarity, this Section 9.5 shall not limit the rights and remedies of the Parties under any of the other Transaction Documents (other than the Closing Transfer Documents), provided that Section 9.2, shall apply to any indemnification rights available under any of the other Transaction Documents and Section 6.9. Sphinx and Arion each hereby waive any provision of any applicable Law to the extent that it would limit or restrict the agreement contained in this Section 9.5. Sphinx and Arion hereby irrevocably waive any right of rescission with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby.

Section 9.6 No Contribution. In the case of an indemnification claim by an Arion Indemnified Party against Sphinx pursuant to Section 9.1(a), Sphinx acknowledges and agrees that neither Sphinx nor any of its Subsidiaries shall have any right to indemnification or contribution from, or other right or remedy against, the Purchased Entities or Purchased Minority Interests in connection with such claim. However, for clarity, to the extent that the matter underlying such Arion Indemnified Party’s indemnification claim would also entitle a Sphinx Indemnified Party to indemnification against Arion pursuant to Section 9.1(b), Arion acknowledges and agrees that its assets and properties (including its ownership interests in the Purchased

123

Entities and Purchased Minority Interests) will be available to satisfy such claim if it is resolved in favor of such Sphinx Indemnified Party.

ARTICLE 10
TERMINATION

Section 10.1 Termination Events. Without prejudice to other remedies which may be available to the Parties by Law or this Agreement, this Agreement may be terminated and the transactions contemplated herein may be abandoned:

(a) by mutual written consent of the Parties, if the board of directors (or a duly authorized committee thereof) of each Party so determines;

(b) after the date that is 12 months following the Agreement Date (the “Outside Date”), by any Party by notice to the other Party if the Closing shall not have occurred on or prior to the Outside Date; provided that (x) the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 10.1(b) shall not be available to any Party whose failure to perform any of its obligations under this Agreement has been the principal cause of, or resulted in, the failure of the Closing to occur on or before such date and (y) the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 10.1(b) shall not be available to the Arion Entities if, prior to the Outside Date, (i) Arion fails to obtain the full Required Amount, (ii) Sphinx is otherwise entitled to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.1(f) and (iii) Sphinx has provided written notice to Arion that it has elected to effect the Purchase Transaction pursuant to the alternative structure referenced in Section 6.16(g) (such notice the, “Alternative Structure Notice”) and is negotiating in good faith with Arion to make such changes to the organizational and other related documents thereof necessary to implement such alternative structure; provided, further that, notwithstanding the foregoing clause (y)(iii), the Arion Entities shall be entitled to terminate this Agreement under this Section 10.1(b) if the Outside Date has passed and the Parties fail to consummate the Closing contemplated by the Alternative Structure Notice previously delivered to Arion within ten Business Days after Sphinx has provided such notice (unless such failure is a result of Arion’s failure to reasonably cooperate in good faith to make such necessary changes);

(c) by either Party by notice to the other Party, if (i) a Governmental Authority of competent jurisdiction shall have issued a nonappealable final order, decree or ruling or taken any other nonappealable final action, in each case having the effect of permanently restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement to occur on the Closing Date; provided that neither Party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 10.1(c) if such Party’s failure to perform its obligations under this Agreement has been the principal cause of, or resulted in, such order, decree or ruling or other action or (ii) any U.S. federal or state Law has been enacted that would make the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement illegal;

(d) by Sphinx, if there has been a breach of any representation or warranty set forth in Article 5, or a breach of or failure to perform any covenant or agreement on the part of Arion set forth in this Agreement, which breach or failure to perform (i) would cause the conditions set forth in Section 7.2(a) or Section 7.2(b) not to be satisfied if the date on which such breach or failure to perform was the Closing Date and (ii) shall not have been cured within 20 Business Days (or by the Outside Date, if earlier) following receipt by Arion of written notice of such breach from Sphinx; provided that the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 10.1(d) will not be

124

available to Sphinx if Sphinx is then in breach of, or has failed to perform with respect to, any representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement such that any condition set forth in Section 7.3(a) or Section 7.3(b) is incapable of being satisfied;

(e) by Arion, if there has been a breach of any representation or warranty set forth in Article 4, or a breach of or failure to perform any covenant or agreement on the part of Sphinx set forth in this Agreement, which breach or failure to perform (i) would cause the conditions set forth in Section 7.3(a) or Section 7.3(b) not to be satisfied if the date on which such breach or failure to perform was the Closing Date and (ii) shall not have been cured within 20 Business Days (or by the Outside Date, if earlier) following receipt by Sphinx of written notice of such breach or failure to perform from Arion; provided that the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 10.1(e) will not be available to Arion if Arion is then in breach of, or has failed to perform with respect to, any representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement such that any condition set forth in Section 7.2(a) or Section 7.2(b) is incapable of being satisfied; or

(f) by Sphinx, if (i) Arion shall have failed to consummate the Purchase Transactions within two Business Days after the date on which the Closing should have occurred pursuant to Section 8.1, (ii) all the conditions set forth in Section 7.1 and Section 7.3 would have been satisfied if the Closing were to have occurred at such time (other than those conditions that by their terms are to be satisfied on the Closing Date; provided that such conditions would have been satisfied as of the date on which the Closing should have occurred pursuant to Section 8.1) and (iii) Sphinx shall have irrevocably confirmed in writing to Arion at least two Business Days prior to the termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 10.1(f) (which confirmation may be given on the date the Closing should have occurred) that Sphinx stands ready, willing and able to consummate the Purchase Transactions (subject to the satisfaction or waiver of all of the conditions set forth in Section 7.2); provided that during such period of two Business Days following the date the Closing should have occurred pursuant to Section 8.1, no Party shall be entitled to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 10.1(f) and Sphinx cooperates with Arion to effect the Closing.

Section 10.2 Effect of Termination. In the event of any termination of this Agreement as provided in Section 10.1, this Agreement shall forthwith become wholly void and of no further force and effect, all further obligations of the Parties shall terminate and there shall be no Liability on the part of any Party (or any stockholder, Affiliate, director, officer, employee, agent, consultant or Representative of such Party) to any other Party (or its stockholders, Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, agents, consultants or Representatives), except that the Limited Guarantees will survive in accordance with their respective terms and the provisions of Section 6.3(b), this Section 10.2, Section 10.3 and Article 11 of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and the Parties shall remain bound by and continue to be subject to the provisions thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, but subject to Section 10.3, the provisions of this Section 10.2 shall not relieve either party of any Liability for any material Willful Breach of this Agreement occurring prior to the termination of this Agreement, or pursuant to the sections specified in this Section 10.2 to survive such termination; provided that in no event shall (a) the aggregate amount (whether relating to any damages, Losses or other Liabilities directly or indirectly incurred or suffered by any Person) payable by Arion, Arion Opco or any of their respective Affiliates or Subsidiaries to Sphinx or its Affiliates or Subsidiaries for breaches or violations of this Agreement exceed $110,000,000 in the aggregate for all such breaches and violations (the “Arion Liability Limitation”) and (b) Sphinx, its Subsidiaries or Affiliates or Representatives, nor will they permit any Person acting on their behalf or through them to, seek or obtain any monetary recovery or award in excess of the Arion Liability Limitation for, or with respect to, this Agreement (including any breach

125

or termination of this Agreement, the failure to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby or any Proceedings under applicable Law arising out of any such breach, termination or failure).

Section 10.3 Expenses and Termination Fee.

(a) General. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, including in this (i) this Section 10.3, (ii) the last sentence of each of Section 2.7(b) and Section 2.7(c) and (iii) Section 2.8, Section 2.9, Section 6.15 and Section 6.16(f), whether or not the Closing occurs, whether or not the Closing occurs, Sphinx, Arion and Arion Opco shall each pay their respective expenses (such as legal, investment banker and accounting fees) incurred in connection with the negotiation and execution of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Arion shall pay all filing fees in connection with filings under the HSR Act and other applicable Antitrust Laws; provided that, other than the foregoing filing fees, each of Sphinx and Arion shall bear their own fees, costs or expenses associating with receiving approval or consent under the HSR Act or other applicable Antitrust Laws.

(b) Arion Payment. The Arion Entities shall collectively pay to Sphinx (for Sphinx’s own account and as agent for any Other Sphinx Entity) an aggregate cash amount equal to $110,000,000 (the “Termination Fee”) in the event that this Agreement is terminated (i) by any Party pursuant to Section 10.1(b) if this Agreement was terminable by Sphinx pursuant to (x) Section 10.1(d) for a Specified Breach (taking into account, for the avoidance of doubt, any right to cure such Specified Breach set forth in Section 10.1(d)) or (y) Section 10.1(f), in each case at the time of such termination or (ii) by Sphinx pursuant to (x) Section 10.1(d) for a Specified Breach or (y) Section 10.1(f). The Arion Entities shall pay to Sphinx the Termination Fee by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by Sphinx promptly but in no event later than one Business Day after the date of such termination. As used herein, the term “Specified Breach” means (A) Arion’s breach of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 5.12 (Financial Capacity), Section 5.17 (Solvency) (except in the case the primary cause for the breach of such solvency representation is the financial status of the Purchased Assets, Assumed Liabilities and the Business transferred to Arion in connection with the Purchase Transactions) and/or Section 5.18 (Limited Guarantee) and/or (B) the Arion Entities’ breach or failure to perform, on the part of the Arion Entities, the covenants or agreements set forth in (I) Section 6.2(a)(y) (Operation of the Business) (but solely with respect to sub-clauses (i) (ii), (iii), (iv), (vi), (vii), (viii) or (x) thereof) and/or (II) Section 6.4 (Necessary Efforts; No Inconsistent Action) (provided that, with respect to the foregoing clause (II), Sphinx shall only be permitted to seek the Termination Fee as a result of the termination of this Agreement for a Specified Breach of Section 6.4 of this Agreement on the Outside Date and any earlier termination of this Agreement as a result of the breach of Arion’s obligations set forth in Section 6.4 of this Agreement shall not entitle Sphinx to seek or be paid the Termination Fee; provided, further, that for the avoidance of doubt Sphinx may terminate this Agreement for a Specified Breach of Section 6.4 of this Agreement prior to the Outside Date and seek damages for a material Willful Breach thereof to the extent permitted pursuant to Section 10.2), in each case of clauses (A) and (B) where such Specified Breach would permit Sphinx to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.1(d) (taking into account, for the avoidance of doubt, any right to cure such Specified Breach set forth in Section 10.1(d)).

(c) Termination Fee Payment. The Parties acknowledge that (i) the agreement contained in this Section 10.3 is an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (ii) the amount of, and the basis for payment of, the fee described herein is reasonable and appropriate in

126

all respects and (iii) without this agreement, the Parties would not enter into this Agreement. Accordingly, if the Arion Entities fail to pay in a timely manner the Termination Fee and, in order to obtain such payment, Sphinx makes a claim that results in a judgment for the amount set forth in Section 10.3(b), the Arion Entities shall pay to Sphinx its reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable fees and costs of counsel) in connection with such suit, together with interest on the amount set forth in Section 10.3(b) at the prime rate of J.P. Morgan Chase Bank, N.A., in effect from time to time from the date such payment was required to be made hereunder. All payments under Section 10.3(b) or this Section 10.3(c) shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by Sphinx.

(d) Exclusive Remedy. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, subject to Sphinx’s right to seek specific performance pursuant to, and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in, Section 11.7, if Arion fails to effect the Closing when required by Section 8.1 for any or no reason or otherwise breaches this Agreement in any way (whether willfully, intentionally, unintentionally or otherwise) prior to the Closing or fails to perform hereunder in any way (whether willfully, intentionally, unintentionally or otherwise) prior to the Closing, then, the sole and exclusive remedy of Sphinx and its Subsidiaries against (i) the Arion Entities or the Investors, (ii) any Debt Financing Source or prospective lender, lead arranger, arranger, agent or representative of or to Arion or the Investors (including the Debt Financing Sources) and (iii) the direct or indirect, former, current and future holders of any equity, partnership or limited liability company interest, controlling persons, directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys, Representatives, Affiliates, members, managers, or assignees of any Person named in clause (i) or (ii) (the Persons described in clauses (i) through (iii) collectively, the “Arion Related Parties”) for any Losses suffered as a result thereof or any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement in this Agreement, any of transactions contemplated hereby, the Limited Guarantees or the Debt Financing Commitment shall be (A) the right to terminate this Agreement (subject to the terms of Section 10.1) and receive payment of the Termination Fee from the Arion Entities (or the Guarantors in accordance with the Limited Guarantees) (and in each case, the expenses and interest, if any, contemplated by the second sentence of Section 10.3(c)) as and to the extent provided by Section 10.3(b) and Section 10.3(c) or (B) the right of Sphinx to seek to enforce the obligations of Arion by a decree of specific performance and to seek temporary, preliminary and permanent injunctive relief to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of the obligations of Arion pursuant to this Agreement as and only to the extent expressly permitted by Section 11.7; provided that, in no event shall Sphinx be permitted or entitled to receive both a grant of specific performance for the consummation of the Closing and the transactions contemplated hereby and payment of the Termination Fee. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, except as set forth in the preceding sentence, none of the Arion Related Parties will have any Liability or obligation to Sphinx, its Subsidiaries or any of its Affiliates, shareholders, employees, directors, officers or Representatives, relating to or arising out of this Agreement, the Debt Financing Commitment or in respect of any other agreement, document or theory of law or equity, through Arion or otherwise whether by or through attempted piercing of the corporate veil, by or through a claim by or on behalf of Arion, Arion Opco or against any other Arion Related Party, by the enforcement of any assessment by any legal or equitable Proceeding, by virtue of any statute, regulation or other applicable Law or otherwise. Without limiting the foregoing, upon termination of this Agreement by Sphinx and the payment of the Termination Fee, none of the Arion Related Parties shall have any further Liability or other obligation to Sphinx or any of its Subsidiaries relating or arising out of this Agreement, the Limited Guarantee, the Debt Financing Commitment or in respect of any of the other Transaction Documents or any transactions contemplated herein or therein.

Section 11.5 Assignment; Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement shall not be assigned by any Party without the prior written consent of the other Parties, and any attempted assignment, without such consent, shall be null and void. Notwithstanding the foregoing, without the consent of Sphinx, each of Arion and Arion Opco may assign its rights or obligations hereunder (a) to any Other Arion Entity (including the right to purchase any of the Purchased Assets or Purchased Shares and the obligation to assume all or part of the Assumed Liabilities, as the case may be, in which event all references herein to Arion or Arion Opco will be deemed to refer to such Other Arion Entity, as appropriate), (b) to any Person that acquires substantially all of the assets or a majority of the equity interests of Arion or Arion Opco following the Closing or (c) to any parties providing the Debt Financing for purposes of creating a security interest herein or otherwise assign as collateral in respect of such Debt Financing; provided that no such assignment shall limit or affect the obligations of Arion or Arion Opco hereunder. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any Person other than the Arion Entities, Sphinx or their successors or permitted assigns, any rights or remedies under or by reason of this Agreement; provided, that the Debt Financing Sources shall be express third party beneficiaries of and shall be entitled to rely upon Section 10.3(d), the last sentence of Section 11.6, Section 11.7, the proviso in Section 11.8, Section 11.9, Section 11.12, Section 11.13, Section 11.14 and this Section 11.5, and each Debt Financing Source may enforce such provisions.

Section 11.6 Amendment; Waiver. This Agreement may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified only by a written instrument executed by the Parties. No waiver by any Party of any of the provisions hereof shall be effective unless explicitly set forth in writing and executed by the Party so waiving. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, no action taken pursuant to this Agreement, including any investigation by or on behalf of any Party, or a failure or delay by any Party in exercising any power, right or privilege under this Agreement shall be deemed to constitute a waiver by the Party taking such action of compliance with any representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained herein, or in any documents delivered or to be delivered pursuant to this Agreement or in connection with the Closing hereunder. The waiver by any Party of a breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Section 10.3(d), Section 11.5, the proviso in Section 11.8, Section 11.9, Section 11.12, Section 11.13, Section 11.14 and this Section 11.6 (and the defined terms therein and any provision of this Agreement to the extent an amendment, modification, waiver or termination of such provision would modify the substance of Section 10.3(d), Section 11.5, the proviso in Section 11.8, Section 11.9, Section 11.12, Section 11.13, Section 11.14 and this Section 11.6) may not be amended, modified, waived or terminated in a manner that adversely impacts in any respect the Debt Financing Sources without the prior written consent of the Debt Financing Sources.

Section 11.7 Specific Performance; Remedies. The Parties agree that irreparable damage would occur if any provision of this Agreement was not performed in accordance with the terms hereof or were otherwise breached and that the Parties shall be entitled (without the requirement to post a bond or other security) to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches and threatened breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at Law or in equity. The Parties agree not to assert that a remedy of injunctive relief, specific performance or other equitable relief is unenforceable, invalid, contrary to law or inequitable for any reason,

129

nor to assert that a remedy of monetary damages would provide an adequate remedy. The Parties agree that, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Sphinx shall only be entitled to seek or obtain any injunction, specific performance or any other equitable relief requiring Arion or Arion Opco to cause the Arion Entities to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, including to effect the Closing in accordance with Section 8.1, on the terms and subject to the conditions in this Agreement, if and only if: (i) this Agreement has not been validly terminated in accordance with Section 10.1, (ii) all conditions in Section 7.1 and Section 7.3 have been satisfied as of the date on which the Closing would otherwise be required to occur (other than those conditions that by their terms are to be satisfied on the Closing Date, provided that such conditions will be satisfied as of the Closing Date if the Closing were to occur), (iii) Arion fails to complete the Closing by the date the Closing would otherwise be required to have occurred pursuant to Section 8.1, (iv) the Debt Financing (or alternative financing in accordance with, and satisfies the conditions of, Section 6.16) has been funded or would be funded (or, if such Debt Financing has been funded into escrow, such funds have been or will be released from escrow at the Closing) if the Closing were to occur and (v) Sphinx has irrevocably confirmed in writing to Arion that Sphinx is prepared, able and would take such actions required of it by this Agreement to effect the Closing upon the funding of the Debt Financing. The election of Sphinx to pursue an injunction or specific performance shall not restrict, impair or otherwise limit Sphinx from subsequently seeking to terminate this Agreement and seeking to collect the Termination Fee pursuant to Section 10.3(b); provided, however, that under no circumstances shall Sphinx be permitted or entitled to receive both a grant of specific performance resulting in the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby pursuant to this Section 11.7 and the payment of the Termination Fee. In the event that Sphinx elects to concurrently pursue a remedy of specific performance for the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and a remedy for money damages against the Arion Entities (including payment of the Termination Fee), Arion shall be entitled, at Arion’s sole election, to settle any pre-Closing claims against the Arion Entities relating to their obligations to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement by consummating the Closing in accordance with the terms of this Agreement prior to the entry of any judgement or award for damages to Sphinx.

Section 11.8 Governing Law. This Agreement and all claims and Proceedings arising out of this Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the internal Laws of the State of Delaware (whether arising in contract, tort, equity or otherwise), without regard to any conflicts or choice of law principles that would result in the application of any Law other than the Law of the State of Delaware; provided that notwithstanding the foregoing, any such disputes involving the Debt Financing Sources will be governed by, construed in accordance with, and enforced under the applicable Laws of the State of New York without giving regard to conflicts or choice of law principles that would result in the application of any Law other than the Law of the State of New York.

Section 11.9 Consent to Jurisdiction. The Parties hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submit to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or, if such court shall not have jurisdiction, any Federal court of the United States of America located within the State of Delaware, solely with respect to any and all claims and Proceedings related to this Agreement and the interpretation and enforcement of the provisions of this Agreement and of the documents referred to in this Agreement, and in respect of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby (including resolution of disputes under Article 9 hereof), and, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, hereby waive, and agree not to assert, as a defense in any action, suit or other Proceeding for the interpretation or enforcement hereof or thereof, that it is not subject thereto or that such action, suit or other Proceeding may not be brought or is not maintainable in said courts or that the venue thereof may not be appropriate or that this Agreement or any such document may not be enforced in or by such courts, and the Parties irrevocably and unconditionally agree that all claims with respect to such action, suit or other Proceeding shall be heard and determined in such a Delaware State or, to the extent permitted by Law, Federal court. The Parties hereby consent to and

130

grant any such court jurisdiction over the Person of such Parties and over the subject matter of such dispute and agree that mailing of process or other papers in connection with any such action, suit or Proceeding in the manner provided for notices in Section 11.1 or in such other manner as may be permitted by applicable Law, shall be valid and sufficient service thereof. The Parties further agree, to the extent permitted by Law, that final and non-appealable judgment against a party in any action or Proceeding contemplated above shall be conclusive and may be enforced in any other jurisdiction within or outside the United States by suit on the judgment, a certified or exemplified copy of which shall be conclusive evidence of the fact and amount of such judgment. Each of the Parties agrees that it will not bring or support the bringing of any Proceeding, action, cause of action, claim, cross-claim or third-party claim of any kind or description, whether in Law or in equity, whether arising in contract, tort, equity or otherwise, against the Debt Financing Sources in any way relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including any dispute arising out of or relating in any way to the Debt Financing Commitment or the performance thereof, in any forum other than the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York, or, if under applicable Law exclusive jurisdiction is vested in the Federal courts, the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (and appellate courts thereof).

Section 11.10 Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, the Confidentiality Agreement, the Sphinx Disclosure Letter, the Arion Disclosure Letter and the Exhibits and Schedules hereto set forth the entire agreement and understanding of the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, representations or warranties relating to such subject matter. In the event of any inconsistency between the provisions of this Agreement and any Closing Transfer Document, the provisions of this Agreement shall prevail.

Section 11.11 No Joint Venture on the Agreement Date. This Agreement does not authorize any Party (a) to bind or commit, or to act as an agent, employee or legal representative of, another Party, except as may be specifically set forth in other provisions of this Agreement or (b) to have the power to control the activities and operations of another Party. The Parties are independent contractors with respect to each other under this Agreement. Each Party agrees not to hold itself out as having any authority or relationship contrary to this Section 11.11.

Section 11.12 LIMITATION ON LIABILITY. NOTWITHSTANDING ANY OTHER PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER TRANSACTION AGREEMENT TO THE CONTRARY, IN NO EVENT WILL ANY PARTY HERETO, OR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES OR ANY DEBT FINANCING SOURCES, BE LIABLE FOR ANY SPECIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL (OTHER THAN ARISING BY REASON OF OR RESULTING FROM EFFORTS TO MITIGATE LOSSES), EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES (INCLUDING DIMINUTIONS OR REDUCTIONS IN VALUE, LOST PROFITS, LOST OPPORTUNITIES, THE COST OF COMPLIANCE WITH ANY EQUITABLE REMEDIES OR CHANGES IN BUSINESS PRACTICES, LOSS OF REVENUE, LOST SALES OR OTHER SPECULATIVE DAMAGES) IN CONNECTION WITH ANY CLAIMS, LOSSES, DAMAGES OR INJURIES ARISING OUT OF ANY BREACH BY SUCH PARTY OF THIS AGREEMENT, OR ANY FAILURE OF SUCH PARTY TO PERFORM ITS OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER SUCH BREACHING OR NONPERFORMING PARTY WAS ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES OR NOT; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, NOTHING HEREIN SHALL LIMIT A PERSON’S ABILITY TO RECOVER ANY LOSSES IN RESPECT OF SPECIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES TO THE EXTENT AWARDED TO A THIRD PARTY BY A GOVERNMENTAL AUTHORITY OR ARBITRATOR IN CONNECTION WITH A THIRD-PARTY CLAIM.

131

Section 11.13 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT, EQUITY OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, THE DEBT FINANCING COMMITMENT OR THE ACTIONS OF ANY PARTY HERETO IN THE NEGOTIATION, ADMINISTRATION, PERFORMANCE OR ENFORCEMENT HEREOF OR THEREOF (INCLUDING ANY PROCEEDING INVOLVING THE DEBT FINANCING SOURCES UNDER THE DEBT FINANCING COMMITMENT). THE PARTIES HEREBY FURTHER IRREVOCABLY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT, EQUITY OR OTHERWISE) BROUGHT BY ANY PARTY AGAINST THE DEBT FINANCING SOURCES IN ANY MATTER WHATSOEVER ARISING OUT OF OR IN RELATION TO OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR THE DEBT FINANCING COMMITMENT OR THE NEGOTIATION, ADMINISTRATION, PERFORMANCE OR ENFORCEMENT THEREOF.

Section 11.14 Non-Recourse. Subject to the rights of Arion under the Debt Financing Commitment or the definitive agreements relating thereto, in each case under the terms thereof, none of the Debt Financing Sources shall have any Liability for any obligations or Liabilities of any Party under this Agreement or for any claim (whether arising in contract, tort, equity or otherwise) based on, in respect of, or by reason of (or in any way relating to), the transactions contemplated hereby, including any dispute arising out of or relating in any way to the Debt Financing Commitment, the transactions contemplated thereby or the performance thereof and the Parties agree not to assert any such claim or bring any action, suit or other Proceeding in connection with any such claim against any Debt Financing Sources.

Section 11.15 Retention of Counsel. Each of Arion and Arion Opco, for itself and, following the Closing, the Purchased Entities, and for Arion’s and Arion Opco’s and, following the Closing, the Purchased Entities’ respective successors and assigns, irrevocably acknowledges and agrees that all communications between Sphinx and its Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and legal counsel, on the other hand, including Fenwick & West LLP, made in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and closing under, or any dispute or Proceeding arising under or in connection with, this Agreement which, immediately prior to the Closing, would be deemed to be privileged communications of Sphinx or any of its Subsidiaries (including the Purchased Entities) and their counsel and would not be subject to disclosure to Arion or Arion Opco in connection with any process relating to a dispute arising under or in connection with this Agreement or otherwise, shall continue after the Closing to be privileged communications between Sphinx and such counsel, and none of Arion, Arion Opco or any Person, acting or purporting to act on behalf of or through Arion or Arion Opco shall seek to obtain the same by any process on the grounds that the privilege attaching to such communications belongs to the Purchased Entities and not to Sphinx. Each of Arion, Arion Opco and the Purchased Entities agree that any attorney-client privilege, attorney work-product protection, and expectation of client confidence arising from or as a result of counsel’s representation of an Purchased Entity or Sphinx prior to the Closing, and all information and documents covered by such privilege or protection, shall belong to and be controlled by Sphinx and may be waived only by Sphinx, and not a Purchased Entity, and shall not pass to or be claimed or used by Arion, Arion Opco or any Purchased Entity, except with respect to the assertion of such privilege or protection against a third party.

Section 11.16 Rules of Construction.

(a) The Parties have been represented by counsel during the negotiation, preparation and execution of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and, therefore, hereby waive, with respect to this Agreement, any other Transaction Document and each Exhibit, each Appendix and each Schedule attached hereto or thereto, the application of any Law or rule of construction

A.	Methodologies for Calculating Business Cash

Unless otherwise specifically provided for in the definition of Business Cash or in this Appendix F, cash and cash equivalents used in the calculation of Business Cash shall be determined in accordance with GAAP.


B.	Methodologies for Calculating Closing Net Working Capital.

The account balances comprising Closing Net Working Capital shall be derived from the Unaudited Non-GAAP Combined Statement of Net Operating Assets of the Business as of the close of business on the day immediately preceding the Closing Date (the “Closing Balance Sheet”). Unless otherwise specifically provided for in this Appendix F, the Closing Balance Sheet shall be prepared using only the same accounting methods, policies, practices, principles and procedures (with consistent classifications), judgments and estimation methodologies as were used in the preparation of the Unaudited Non-GAAP Combined Statement of Net Operating Assets as of March 31, 2017 included in Schedule 4.11(a) of the Agreement (the “Past Practices”).

The Closing Balance Sheet shall entirely disregard (i) any and all effects on the assets or liabilities of the Parties and their Subsidiaries as a result of (A) the transactions contemplated by the Agreement and the Transaction Documents, (B) any financing or refinancing arrangements entered into (i) at any time by any of the Parties and/or their respective Affiliates or (ii) by the Parties at the Closing pursuant to the terms of the Agreement or (C) any other transaction entered into by any of the Parties and/or their respective Affiliates in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. Valuations and estimates for the Closing Balance Sheet shall not reflect or take into account developments between the date thereof and the date of preparation of the Closing Balance Sheet except for those developments that provide additional evidence with respect to conditions that existed on the date of the Closing Balance Sheet (but without taking into account any of the Purchased Transactions to occur on the Closing Date).

Notwithstanding anything to contrary provided for this in the Agreement or this Appendix F, the following accounting methods and provisions will be utilized for purposes of preparing and determining the Closing Balance Sheet, regardless of whether or not such accounting methods and provisions are consistent with, and in accordance with, the Past Practices.

(i)

Accounts Receivable - Accounts Receivable shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP except it will exclude unbilled amounts for services rendered, or product delivered, prior to the Closing Date. Accounts Receivable shall be net of allowances for doubtful accounts and product return reserves, each of which shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP and consistent with the methodologies described in Schedule 4.11.


(ii)	Accrued Paid Time Off (“PTO”) – Accrued PTO for Continuing Employees shall be calculated by employee on a daily basis consistent with, and in accordance with, GAAP as applied by the policies of Sphinx and its Subsidiaries governing such accrued PTO through the day immediately preceding the Closing Date.

(iii)

Accrued Bonus – Employee incentive compensation and bonus accruals reflected on the Closing Balance Sheet shall equal the annual budgeted bonus amount, which assumes payment of 100% of the bonus target, divided by 365 days multiplied by the number of days from April 1, 2017 to the date of the Closing Balance Sheet, less any payments made prior to the date of the Closing Balance Sheet in respect of incentive compensation and bonuses for fiscal year 2018.


(iv)	Purchase Accounting Adjustments – Any purchase accounting adjustments required under GAAP that result from the transactions contemplated by the Agreement will be excluded.

(v)

Accrued sales commissions – Sales commission liabilities shall be equal to actual sales commissions earned by Continuing Employees and calculated in accordance with GAAP as applied by the policies of Sphinx and its Subsidiaries governing such commissions and the underlying commission agreements for each respective employee through the close of business on the day immediately preceding the Closing Date.

(vi)

Accrued payroll, payroll taxes and benefits – Payroll, payroll taxes and benefits for costs incurred but not yet paid shall be accrued on a daily pro rata basis based on the total number of days since the last payroll, payroll tax and benefits payments through the close of business on the day immediately preceding the Closing Date based on each respective Continuing Employee’s individual compensation arrangement, the applicable tax rates and applicable benefit costs incurred.

(vii)

Purchased Entities’ Closing Net Working Capital Balances – To the extent not addressed in Appendix F, the components of Closing Net Working Capital attributable to Purchased Entities shall be prepared using GAAP and consistent with the same accounting methods, policies, practices, principles and procedures (with consistent classifications), judgments and estimation methodologies as were used historically in the respective balance sheet of each Purchased Entity as of March 31, 2017. Intercompany receivables and payables will be excluded from the Closing Net Working Capital attributable to Purchased Entities.

(viii)

Asset and Liability Classification. Except if and to the extent otherwise expressly noted elsewhere in this Exhibit F, no asset will be classified as a current asset unless it has been consistently classified as a current asset in the Unaudited Combined Non-GAAP Statement of Net Operating Assets for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017.

(ix)	Cash overdrafts – Unless included in cash and cash equivalents in the calculation of Business Cash, any cash overdrafts that are Assumed Liabilities shall be reflected in accounts payable on the Closing Balance Sheet.


(x)	Deposits in Transit and Credit Card Receivables – Deposits in transit and any credit card receivables that are not included in cash and cash equivalents in the calculation of Business Cash shall be included in Trade Accounts Receivable in the Closing Balance Sheet.
