(a) Within ninety (90) days following the Closing Date, the Company shall prepare and deliver to Seller a written statement (the “Final Closing Statement” XE " QUOTE 0X201C “Final Closing Statement QUOTE 0X201D ”" \t “‎Section 2.6(a)" ) that shall include and set forth a calculation of (together with reasonably detailed documentation supporting such calculations) the actual (i) Net Working Capital (the “Closing Net Working Capital” XE " QUOTE 0X201C “Closing Net Working Capital QUOTE 0X201D ”" \t “‎Section 2.6(a)" ), (ii) Indebtedness (the “Closing Indebtedness” XE " QUOTE 0X201C “Closing Indebtedness QUOTE 0X201D ”" \t “‎Section 2.6(a)" ), (iii) Cash (the “Closing Cash” XE " QUOTE 0X201C “Closing Cash QUOTE 0X201D ”" \t “‎Section 2.6(a)" ), and (iv) Transaction Expenses (the “Closing Transaction Expenses” XE " QUOTE 0X201C “Closing Transaction Expenses QUOTE 0X201D ”" \t “‎Section 2.6(a)" ) (with each of Closing Net Working Capital, Closing Indebtedness, Closing Cash and Closing Transaction Expenses determined as of immediately prior to the Closing and, except for Closing Transaction Expenses, without giving effect to the transactions contemplated herein). Closing Net Working Capital, Closing Indebtedness, Closing Cash and Closing Transaction Expenses shall be calculated in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, including the definitions of the terms Net Working Capital, Indebtedness, Cash and Transaction Expenses.

(b) The Final Closing Statement shall become final and binding on the 45th day following delivery thereof, unless prior to the end of such period, Seller delivers to Buyer written notice of its disagreement (a “Notice of Disagreement” XE " QUOTE 0X201C “Notice of Disagreement QUOTE 0X201D ”" \t “‎Section 2.6(b)" ) specifying the nature and amount of any dispute as to the Closing Net Working Capital, Closing Indebtedness, Closing Cash and/or Closing Transaction Expenses, as set forth in the Final Closing Statement. Seller shall be deemed to have agreed with all items and amounts of Closing Net Working Capital, Closing Indebtedness, Closing Cash and/or Closing Transaction Expenses not specifically referenced in the Notice of Disagreement, and such items and amounts shall not be subject to review in accordance with ‎Section 2.6(c). Any Notice of Disagreement may reference only disagreements based on mathematical errors or based on amounts of the Closing Net Working Capital, Closing Indebtedness, Closing Cash and/or Closing Transaction Expenses as reflected on the Final Closing Statement not being calculated in accordance with this ‎Section 2.6.

(c) During the 15‑day period following delivery of a Notice of Disagreement by Seller to Buyer, the parties in good faith shall seek to resolve in writing any differences that they may have with respect to the computation of the Closing Net Working Capital, Closing Indebtedness, Closing Cash and/or Closing Transaction Expenses as specified therein. Any disputed items resolved in writing between Seller and Buyer within such 15‑day period shall be final and binding with respect to such items, and if Seller and Buyer agree in writing on the resolution of each disputed item specified by Seller in the Notice of Disagreement and the amount of the Closing Net Working Capital, Closing Indebtedness, Closing Cash and Closing Transaction Expenses, the amounts so determined shall be final and binding on the parties for all purposes hereunder and shall not be subject to appeal or further review. If Seller and Buyer have not resolved all such differences by the end of such 15‑day period, Seller and Buyer shall submit, in writing, to an independent public accounting firm (the “Independent Accounting Firm” XE " QUOTE 0X201C “Independent Accounting Firm QUOTE 0X201D ”" \t “‎Section 2.6(c)" ), their briefs detailing their views as to the correct nature and amount of each item

remaining in dispute and the amounts of the Closing Net Working Capital, Closing Indebtedness, Closing Cash and Closing Transaction Expenses, and the Independent Accounting Firm shall make a written determination as to each such disputed item and the amount of the Closing Net Working Capital, Closing Indebtedness, Closing Cash and Closing Transaction Expenses, which determination shall be made in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, including the definitions of the terms Net Working Capital, Indebtedness, Cash and Transaction Expenses, and shall be final and binding on the parties for all purposes hereunder. The Independent Accounting Firm shall consider only those items and amounts in Seller’s and Buyer’s respective calculations of the Closing Net Working Capital, Closing Indebtedness, Closing Cash and Closing Transaction Expenses that are identified as being items and amounts to which Seller and Buyer have been unable to agree. In resolving any disputed item, the Independent Accounting Firm 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 either party. The Independent Accounting Firm shall be Ernst & Young or, if such firm is unable or unwilling to act, such other independent public accounting firm as shall be agreed in writing by Seller and Buyer. Seller and Buyer shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Independent Accounting Firm to render a written decision resolving the matters submitted to it as promptly as practicable, and in any event within 30 days following the submission thereof. Judgment may be entered upon the written determination of the Independent Accounting Firm in accordance with ‎Section 10.9.

(d) The costs of any dispute resolution pursuant to ‎Section 2.6(c), including the fees and expenses of the Independent Accounting Firm and of any enforcement of the determination thereof, shall be borne by Seller and Buyer in inverse proportion as they may prevail on the matters resolved by the Independent Accounting Firm, which proportionate allocation shall be calculated on an aggregate basis based on the relative dollar values of the amounts in dispute and shall be determined by the Independent Accounting Firm at the time the determination of such firm is rendered on the merits of the matters submitted. The fees and disbursements of the Representatives of each party incurred in connection with the preparation or review of the Final Closing Statement and preparation or review of any Notice of Disagreement, as applicable, shall be borne by such party.

(e) Buyer, during the period from and after the date of delivery of the Final Closing Statement through the resolution of any adjustment to the Consideration contemplated by this under ‎Section 2.6 shall cause the Company to, afford Seller and its Representatives reasonable access (including remote access by way of a data room), during normal business hours and upon reasonable prior notice, to the personnel, properties, books and records of the Company and to any other information reasonably requested for purposes of preparing and reviewing the calculations contemplated by this ‎Section 2.6. Each party shall authorize its accountants to disclose work papers generated by such accountants in connection with preparing and reviewing the calculations of the Net Working Capital, Cash and Indebtedness as specified in this ‎Section 2.6; provided, that such accountants shall not be obligated to make any work papers available except in accordance with such accountants’ disclosure procedures and then only after the non-client party has signed an agreement relating to access to such work papers in form and substance acceptable to such accountants.

(f) The Consideration shall be adjusted, upwards or downwards, as follows:

(i) For the purposes of this Agreement, the “Net Adjustment Amount” XE " QUOTE 0X201C “Net Adjustment Amount QUOTE 0X201D ”" \t “‎Section 2.6(f)(i)" means an amount, which may be positive or negative, equal to (A) the Closing Working Capital Overage, minus the Estimated Working Capital Overage, minus (B) the Closing Working Capital Underage, minus the Estimated Working Capital Underage, plus (C) the Estimated Indebtedness, minus the Closing Indebtedness as finally determined pursuant to this ‎Section 2.6, plus (D) the Closing Cash as finally determined pursuant to this ‎Section 2.6, minus the Estimated Cash, plus (E) the Estimated Transaction Expenses, minus the Closing Transaction Expenses, as finally determined pursuant to this ‎Section 2.6;

(ii) If the Net Adjustment Amount is positive, the Consideration shall be adjusted upwards in an amount equal to the lesser of (x) the Adjustment Escrow Amount and (y) the Net Adjustment Amount. In such event, (A) Seller and Buyer shall promptly deliver joint written notice to the Escrow Agent specifying the Net Adjustment Amount, (B) the Escrow Agent shall pay all funds in the Adjustment Escrow Fund to Seller and (C) Buyer shall pay an amount equal to the lesser of (x) the Adjustment Escrow Amount and (y) the Net Adjustment Amount to Seller, it being understood and agreed that in no event shall Seller be entitled to recovery of, and Buyer shall not be liable for, the Net Adjustment Amount in excess of the Adjustment Escrow Amount.

(iii) If the Net Adjustment Amount is negative (in which case the “Net Adjustment Amount” for purposes of this clause (iii) shall be deemed to be equal to the absolute value of such amount), the Consideration shall be adjusted downwards in an amount equal to the lesser of (x) the Adjustment Escrow Amount and (y) the Net Adjustment Amount. In such event, Buyer and Seller shall promptly deliver joint written notice to the Escrow Agent specifying the Net Adjustment Amount, and the Escrow Agent shall pay the Net Adjustment Amount out of the Adjustment Escrow Fund to Buyer in accordance with the terms of the Escrow Agreement, it being understood and agreed that the Adjustment Escrow Fund shall be Buyer’s sole source of recovery if the Net Adjustment Amount is negative. In the event the amount of funds in the Adjustment Escrow Fund exceeds the Net Adjustment Amount, then the Escrow Agent, after paying the Net Adjustment Amount to Buyer as provided herein, shall pay the remaining funds in the Adjustment Escrow Fund to Seller.

(g) Payments in respect of ‎Section 2.6(f) shall be made within three (3) Business Days of final determination of the Net Adjustment Amount pursuant to the provisions of this ‎Section 2.6 by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account or accounts as may be designated in writing by the party entitled to such payment at least two (2) Business Days prior to such payment date.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, each of Buyer and the Escrow Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any consideration deliverable or otherwise payable to any Person pursuant to this Agreement or in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, such amounts as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under any provision of applicable Law. Any amounts so deducted or withheld shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the applicable Person in respect to which such deduction and withholding was made. Other than with respect to withholding that is attributable to any failure of the Company to deliver the forms described in ‎Section 7.2(f) at or prior to the Closing, the applicable payor shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide the applicable payee with reasonable

advance notice of such payor’s intention to withhold and reasonably cooperate (in a timely manner) to minimize any such deduction or withholding to the extent permitted by applicable Tax Law.

Section 2.8 Reallocation of Forfeited Retention Bonus Amounts. Promptly following any forfeiture of any portion of a Retention Bonus Recipient’s Post-Closing Payment in accordance with the terms of such Retention Bonus Recipient’s applicable Retention Bonus Agreement (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any amount forfeited or paid to Buyer in satisfaction of any indemnity obligations pursuant to ‎Article VIII), Buyer shall, in its sole discretion after reasonable consultation with the Company, reallocate the forfeited amount to one or more of the remaining Retention Bonus Recipients who then remain eligible to be paid all of such Retention Bonus Recipient’s Post-Closing Payment in accordance with the terms of such Retention Bonus Recipient’s applicable Retention Bonus Agreement; provided, that (a) the aggregate Retention Bonuses (including the employer portion of any employment or payroll Taxes thereon) shall not be increased as a result of any such reallocation, (b) any such reallocation shall be effected in compliance with applicable Law and the terms of the Retention Bonus Agreements, and (c) the employer portion of any employment or payroll Taxes in respect of any such reallocation shall be correspondingly adjusted.

(c) With respect to any Buyer Plans that are group health plans, Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to (i) waive all limitations as to preexisting conditions and exclusions with respect to participation and coverage requirements applicable to such employees to the extent such conditions and exclusions were satisfied or did not apply to such Continuing Employees under the group health plans of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries prior to the Closing and (ii) provide each Continuing Employee with credit for any copayments and deductibles paid for the then current plan year prior to the Closing in satisfying any analogous deductible or out of pocket requirements for the same plan year to the extent applicable under any such plan.

Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, and without limiting the generality of the other provisions of this Agreement, the Company shall not, and shall not be required to, consummate the acquisition of any entity contemplated in the Pre-Closing Transaction Steps unless and until Buyer (and to the extent required, Company and Seller) shall have obtained, to the extent required, the requisite approval of the relevant Governmental Authority to acquire control and/or become an ultimate beneficial owner of that relevant entity.

(a) A Person seeking indemnification (the “Indemnified Party” XE " QUOTE 0X201C “Indemnified Party QUOTE 0X201D ”" \t “‎Section 8.4(a)" ) in respect of, arising out of or involving a Loss or a claim or demand made by any Person (other than a party hereto) against the Indemnified Party (a “Third-party Claim” XE " QUOTE 0X201C “Third-party Claim QUOTE 0X201D ”" \t “‎Section 8.4(a)" ) shall deliver notice (a “Claim Notice” XE " QUOTE 0X201C “Claim Notice QUOTE 0X201D ”" \t “‎Section 8.4(a)" ) in respect thereof to the Indemnifying Party, with respect to claims for indemnification under ‎Section 8.2 or ‎Section 8.3, with reasonable promptness after receipt by such Indemnified Party of notice of the Third-party Claim, and shall provide the Indemnifying Party with such information with respect thereto as the Indemnifying Party may reasonably request. The failure to deliver a Claim Notice, however, shall not release the Indemnifying Party from any of its obligations under this ‎Article VIII except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure.

(b) The Indemnifying Party shall have the right, upon written notice to the Indemnified Party within 15 days of receipt of a Claim Notice from the Indemnified Party in respect of such Third-party Claim, to assume the defense thereof at the expense of the Indemnifying Party (which expenses shall not be applied against any indemnity limitation herein) with counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party and satisfactory to the Indemnified Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to assume the defense of any claim (i) for equitable or injunctive relief, (ii) that would impose criminal liability or damages, (iii) that involves a material customer or supplier of the Indemnified Party, (iv) related to or arising from any matter set forth on Schedule 8.2(e), or (v) where Seller is an Indemnifying Party, if the Indemnified Party reasonably determines that the Losses that it may incur arising from or related to any claim could reasonably be expected to exceed an amount equal to the then remaining balance in the Indemnification Escrow Account and available for indemnification in respect of such claim; and, with respect to claims covered by the immediately preceding clauses (i)-(v), the Indemnified Party shall have the right to defend, at the expense of such Indemnified Party, any such Third-party Claim. If the Indemnifying Party does not expressly elect to assume the defense of such Third-party Claim within the time period and otherwise in accordance with the first sentence of this ‎Section 8.4(b), the Indemnified Party shall have the sole right to assume the defense of and to settle such Third-party Claim. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of such Third-party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnified Party unless (i) the employment of such counsel shall have been specifically authorized in writing by the Indemnifying Party or (ii) the named parties to the Third-party Claim (including any impleaded parties) include both the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party, and the Indemnified Party reasonably determines that representation by counsel to the Indemnifying Party of both the Indemnifying Party and such Indemnified Party may present such counsel with a conflict of interest. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any Third-party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in such defense and make available to the Indemnifying Party all witnesses, pertinent records, materials and information in the Indemnified Party’s possession or under the Indemnified Party’s control relating thereto as is reasonably required by the Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any Third-party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, enter into any settlement or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment

with respect to such Third-party Claim if such settlement, compromise or judgment (A) involves a finding or admission of wrongdoing, (B) does not include an unconditional written release by the claimant or plaintiff of the Indemnified Party from all liability in respect of such Third-party Claim, or (C) imposes equitable remedies or any obligation on the Indemnified Party other than solely the payment of money damages for which the Indemnified Party will be indemnified hereunder. If the Indemnified Party assumes the defense of any Third-party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in such defense and make available to the Indemnifying Party all witnesses, pertinent records, materials and information in the Indemnified Party’s possession or under the Indemnified Party’s control relating thereto as is reasonably required by the Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of, or otherwise has the right to control any Third-party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, enter into any settlement or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to such Third-party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, such written consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(c) An Indemnified Party seeking indemnification in respect of, arising out of or involving a Loss or a claim or demand hereunder that does not involve a Third-party Claim being asserted against or sought to be collected from such Indemnified Party (a “Direct Claim” XE " QUOTE 0X201C “Direct Claim QUOTE 0X201D ”" \t “‎Section 8.4(c)" ) shall deliver a Claim Notice in respect thereof to the Indemnifying Party with reasonable promptness after becoming aware of facts supporting such Direct Claim, and shall provide the Indemnifying Party with such information with respect thereto as the Indemnifying Party may reasonably request. The failure to deliver a Claim Notice, however, shall not release the Indemnifying Party from any of its obligations under this ‎Article VIII except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure and shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any other obligation or liability that it may have to the Indemnified Party or otherwise than pursuant to this ‎Article VIII, provided, however, in all cases a Claim Notice must be delivered prior to the end of the respective survival period for such matter as set forth in ‎Section 8.1.

(d) The Indemnifying Party shall notify the Indemnified Party within the forty-five (45)-day period after its receipt of a Claim Notice as to whether the Indemnifying Party disputes its liability to the Indemnified Party with respect to the Loss or claim or demand described in the Claim Notice (such notice of dispute, a “Claim Dispute Notice” XE " QUOTE 0X201C “Claim Dispute Notice QUOTE 0X201D ”" \t “‎Section 8.4(d)" ). If the Indemnifying Party does not timely deliver a Claim Dispute Notice, the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have accepted and agreed to indemnify the Indemnified Party from and against the Loss or claim or demand described in the Claim Notice, subject to the limitations in this Agreement. If the Indemnifying Party has timely delivered a Claim Dispute Notice, the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall proceed in good faith to negotiate a resolution to such dispute. If the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party do not resolve such dispute within thirty (30) days after delivery of a Claim Dispute Notice, such dispute shall be resolved in accordance with ‎Section 10.9, ‎Section 10.10 and ‎Section 10.15.

(e) Indemnification required with respect to any Losses conclusively deemed a liability of the Indemnifying Party hereunder shall be satisfied from the Indemnification Escrow Account, pursuant to ‎Section 8.7, subject to the limitations in ‎Section 8.5.

(f) The Indemnifying Party shall not be entitled to require that any action be made or brought against any other Person before action is brought or claim is made against it hereunder by the Indemnified Party.

(g) Notwithstanding the provisions of ‎Section 10.10, each Indemnifying Party hereby consents to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of any court in which an Action in respect of a Third-party Claim is brought against any Indemnified Party for purposes of any claim that an Indemnified Party may have under this Agreement with respect to such Action or the matters alleged therein and agrees that process may be served on each Indemnifying Party with respect to such claim anywhere.

Section 8.5 Limits on Indemnification. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement:

(a) Seller’s and each Retention Bonus Recipient’s liability as Indemnifying Party hereunder shall be satisfied solely from the Indemnification Escrow Account in accordance with ‎Section 8.4(e) and ‎Section 8.7 (as applicable), such that, in the event that as of any time there are no funds remaining in the Indemnification Escrow Account, Seller and each Retention Bonus Recipient shall cease to have any further liability in connection with any Losses under this ‎Article VIII.

(b) Subject to ‎Section 8.5(d), an Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any claim for indemnification pursuant to ‎Section 8.2(a) (other than with respect to any Fundamental Representation or the representations and warranties set forth in ‎Article IV) unless and until the aggregate amount of indemnifiable Losses which may be recovered from the Indemnifying Party thereunder equals or exceeds $1,312,500 (the “Basket” XE " QUOTE 0X201C “Basket QUOTE 0X201D ”" \t “‎Section 8.5(b)" ), in which case the Indemnifying Party shall, subject to the other limitation contained herein, be liable for the full amount of such Losses from the first dollar thereof.

(c) Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, Seller and each Retention Bonus Recipient shall not be obligated to indemnify Buyer or any other Person with respect to any Loss to the extent that a specific accrual or reserve for the amount of such Loss was specifically and expressly taken into account in calculating the Net Adjustment Amount.

(d) Nothing in this Agreement shall limit, impair or release any claims for Fraud.

(e) Any Losses for which any Indemnified Party would otherwise be entitled to indemnification under this ‎Article VIII shall, solely to the extent such amounts would have reduced the Losses otherwise subject to indemnification hereunder, be reduced by the amount of insurance proceeds or other recoveries (including pursuant to any contractual indemnification or contractual contribution provisions, in each case to the extent actually recovered) actually received by the Indemnified Party from third parties in respect of the applicable Losses incurred by such Indemnified Party, net of the out-of-pocket Taxes, fees, costs and expenses (including of collection or investigation) reasonably incurred in pursuing or obtaining such insurance proceeds or recoveries, and net of any deductibles attributable to such claim or increases in premiums. In the event that, following receipt of any amounts in respect of indemnification from the Indemnifying Parties hereunder (including from the Indemnification Escrow Account), Buyer later receives insurance proceeds or other recoveries in respect of such Losses and such recoveries (after taking account of the Taxes, fees, costs and expenses

(including of collection or investigation) reasonably incurred in pursuing or obtaining such insurance proceeds or other recoveries, and net of any deductibles attributable to such claim or increases in premiums) would have reduced the Losses otherwise subject to indemnification hereunder, then to such extent Buyer shall refund such amount to the Indemnifying Parties; provided, however, if such event occurs prior to the first anniversary of the Closing Date or following the first anniversary of the Closing Date and there is then any Reserved Amount for which the corresponding funds then available in the Indemnification Escrow Account are insufficient to cover, Buyer shall refund such amounts to the Indemnification Escrow Account.

Section 8.6 Exclusive Remedy. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, from and after the Closing, the rights provided in this ‎Article VIII shall constitute the sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any Losses suffered in respect of any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement set forth in this Agreement or any certificate or instrument delivered by the Company pursuant to ‎Section 7.2(d) or ‎‎Section 7.2(f) this Agreement, except for (a) claims for Fraud, (b) actions for specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable relief pursuant to ‎Section 10.12 (c) matters to be resolved pursuant to the dispute resolution provisions set forth in ‎Section 2.6 or (d) any claim brought pursuant to any Ancillary Agreement.

Section 8.7 Indemnification Escrow Accounts.

(a) All claims for indemnifiable Losses under ‎Article VIII shall be satisfied solely from the Indemnification Escrow Account.

(b) If any Indemnified Party, prior to the applicable Expiration Date, delivers a Claim Notice in accordance with the provisions of this ‎Article VIII, an amount equal to the lesser of the amount of Losses set forth in such Claim Notice (calculated in accordance with the limitations and restrictions set forth in this ‎Article VIII) and (y) the remaining funds in the Indemnification Escrow Account, shall be reserved (the “Reserved Amount” XE " QUOTE 0X201C “Reserved Amount QUOTE 0X201D ”" \t “‎Section 8.7(b)" ) in respect of such claim until conclusively determined in accordance with this ‎Article VIII.

(c) Upon mutual agreement of Buyer and Seller, or upon conclusive determination of a claim for indemnifiable Losses in accordance with this ‎Article VIII where any Losses are conclusively deemed a liability of an Indemnifying Party hereunder, Seller and Buyer shall jointly instruct the Escrow Agent to pay the lesser of (A) the amount of indemnifiable Losses determined in accordance with this ‎Article VIII and (B) the remaining funds in the Indemnification Escrow Account to the Indemnified Party.

(d) On the first (1st) Business Day following the first (1st) anniversary of the Closing Date, Seller and Buyer shall jointly instruct the Escrow Agent under the Escrow Agreement to pay to Seller and each Retention Bonus Recipient such Person’s Pro Rata Share of the amount of funds remaining in the Indemnification Escrow Account in excess (if any) over the aggregate Reserved Amount (if any).

Section 8.8 Indemnification Tax Matters.

(a) All sums payable by a Retention Bonus Recipient to the Buyer under this Agreement shall be paid free and clear of all deductions or withholdings other than as may be required by law. If any such deduction or withholding is required by law, the relevant Retention Bonus Recipient shall make such withholding or deduction, and the sum due to the Buyer in respect of such payment will be increased to the extent necessary as will after the deduction or withholding has been made leave the Buyer with the same amount as it would have been entitled to receive in the absence of any such requirement to make a deduction or withholding.

(b) If any payment by a Retention Bonus Recipient to the Buyer under this Agreement is subject to Tax in the hands of the Buyer, the Retention Bonus Recipient shall, within five Business Days of notice in writing being served on them by the Buyer, pay to the Buyer such further amount or amounts as will ensure that the net amount received in respect of such payment after such Tax is the same as it would have been were the payment not subject to such Tax.

(c) The parties hereto shall treat any indemnity payment made pursuant to this Article VIII other than payments made pursuant to Section 8.8(a) and Section 8.8(b) as an adjustment to the Consideration for U.S. federal, state, local and non-U.S. Tax purposes to the extent permitted by applicable Law.

Buyer hereby consents to, and waives any conflict of interest arising from, the Identified Counsel (or any successor) representing the Seller Group or any director, member, partner, officer, employee, representative or Affiliate of the Seller Group in connection with any Post-Closing Matter notwithstanding the Prior Representation, in each case, so long as the Identified Counsel does not then represent, and is not representing, Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that, following the Closing a dispute arises between Buyer or any of its Affiliates (including, after the Closing, the Company and its Subsidiaries), on the one hand, and a third party (other than any member of the Seller Group), on the other hand, Buyer or such Affiliate may assert the attorney-client privilege to prevent the disclosure of the Privileged Communications to such third party and if requested by Buyer or such Affiliate, Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to assert such privilege.
