Effect on Capital Stock

At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of Seattle, Intermediate Holdco, Merger Sub or any holder of the capital stock of Houston, Seattle, Intermediate Holdco, Merger Sub or Miami:

(a) Seattle Capital Stock and Merger Sub Common Stock

(i) Each share of Seattle Common Stock issued and outstanding as of the Effective Time (other than shares canceled in accordance with Section 3.1(a)(ii)) shall be automatically converted into the right to receive a number of ADSs and/or, subject to Section 3.3, a fraction of an ADS, equal to (A) the Exchange Ratio, subject to adjustment in accordance with Section 3.1(a)(iv) multiplied by (B) the ADS Ratio (the “Merger Consideration”).

(ii) Each share of Seattle Common Stock held by Seattle as treasury stock or by Miami, Intermediate Holdco or Merger Sub, in each case, immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be canceled and shall cease to exist and no stock or other consideration shall be issued or delivered in exchange therefor.

(iii) Each share of Seattle Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, when converted in accordance with this Section 3.1, shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and shall cease to exist, and each holder of such shares shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the Merger Consideration as provided in Section 3.1(a)(i) and any dividends or distributions and other amounts payable in accordance with Section 3.2(c).

(iv) The Exchange Ratio and any other similarly dependent items shall be adjusted to reflect fully the appropriate effect of any stock split, split-up, reverse stock split, share consolidation (including a bonus share issue, redemption and share consolidation as permitted by Section 7.1(b) to the extent not otherwise taken into account pursuant to Section 3.1(c)), stock dividend or distribution of Miami Common Stock or Seattle Common Stock, or securities convertible into any such securities, reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification or other like change with respect to Miami Common Stock or Seattle Common Stock having a record date occurring on or after the date of this Agreement and prior to the Effective Time, other than the Reorganization; provided, that nothing in this Section 3.1(a)(iv) shall be construed to permit Houston, Seattle or Miami to take any action with respect to its securities that is prohibited by the terms of this Agreement.

(v) Each share of Seattle Class B Common Stock that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to and at the Effective Time shall remain outstanding following the Effective Time.

(vi) At the Effective Time, all of the shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Merger Sub (“Merger Sub Common Stock”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be automatically converted into an aggregate number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Surviving Corporation equal to the number of shares of Seattle Common Stock converted into the right to receive ADSs pursuant to Section 3.1(a)(ii).

(vii) Immediately following the Effective Time, the Intermediate Holdco shall issue to Miami a number of fully paid nonassessable shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Intermediate Holdco (“Intermediate Holdco Common Stock”) as determined by Miami and Intermediate Holdco in consideration for the payment by Miami of the Merger Consideration as contemplated by this Agreement.

(b) Miami Common Stock

Each share of Miami Common Stock and share of Intermediate Holdco Common Stock that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to and at the Effective Time shall remain outstanding following the Effective Time.

If the percentage of outstanding shares of Miami Common Stock represented by ADSs to be received in the Merger by former holders of Seattle Common Stock with respect to Qualified Seattle Common Stock would be less than 50.1% of all shares of Miami Common Stock outstanding immediately following the consummation of the Merger (determined (i) after giving effect to the issuance of all shares of Miami Common Stock represented by ADSs and underlying shares of Miami Common Stock to be issued pursuant to Section 3.1(a) and (ii) without regard to any adjustment pursuant to this sentence) (the “Threshold Percentage”), then upon Houston’s election, the Exchange Ratio shall be increased such that the number of shares of Miami Common Stock represented by ADSs to be received in the Merger by holders of Seattle Common Stock immediately prior to the Effective Time with respect to Qualified Seattle Common Stock represents the Threshold Percentage. If any such increase is required, then the amount of Seattle Payment distributed pursuant to the Separation and Distribution Agreement shall be decreased by an amount equal to the product of $26.32 multiplied by the number of additional shares of Miami Common Stock represented by ADSs required to be issued pursuant to the Exchange Ratio adjustment set forth in the immediately preceding sentence; provided, however, that this sentence shall apply only if Houston acted in a way that caused the failure to meet the Threshold Percentage in the absence of the increase in ADSs issued pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence. If the percentage of outstanding shares of Miami Common Stock represented by ADSs to be received in the Merger by former holders of Seattle Common Stock with respect to Qualified Seattle Common Stock (determined (i) after giving effect to the issuance of all shares of Miami Common Stock represented by ADSs and underlying shares of Miami Common Stock to be issued pursuant to Section 3.1(a) and (ii) without regard to any adjustment pursuant to this

Section 3.1(c)) would be increased as compared to such percentage determined on the same basis on the date hereof solely because of a dividend, distribution, share repurchase or similar transaction by Miami in accordance with Section 7.1(b)(iii) of the Miami Disclosure Schedule, then the Exchange Ratio shall be adjusted downward as if such dividend, distribution, share repurchase or similar transaction had not occurred; provided, however, that the Exchange Ratio shall not be adjusted downward pursuant to this sentence to the extent such adjustment would cause the number of shares of Miami Common Stock represented by ADSs to be received in the Merger by holders of Seattle Common Stock immediately prior to the Effective Time with respect to Qualified Seattle Common Stock to represent less than 50.1% of all shares of Miami Common Stock outstanding immediately following the consummation of the Merger (determined after giving effect to (i) the issuance of all shares of Miami Common Stock represented by ADSs and underlying shares of Miami Common Stock to be issued pursuant to Section 3.1(a) and (ii) all adjustments pursuant to this Section 3.1(c), but without regard to this proviso).

3.2.

Distribution of Per Share Merger Consideration

(a) Agent

Prior to the Effective Time, Miami will designate a U.S. bank or trust company reasonably acceptable to Houston to act as agent of Miami for the purposes of distributing the Merger Consideration (the “Agent”). At or substantially concurrently with the Effective Time, Miami shall (i) allot and issue, or cause to be allotted and issued, to the Depositary Bank, or any successor depositary thereto, or a nominee for the Depositary Bank or successor depositary thereto, a number of shares of Miami Common Stock equal to the aggregate number of ADSs to be issued as Merger Consideration and (ii) deposit or cause to be deposited with the Agent, for the benefit of the holders of shares of Seattle Common Stock, for exchange in accordance with this Section 3, through the Agent, the receipts (or uncertificated book-entries, as applicable) representing such aggregate number of ADSs, and the Depositary Bank shall be authorized to issue the ADSs representing such shares of Miami Common Stock in accordance with this Agreement (such ADSs, whether evidenced by receipts or book-entries, together with any dividends or distributions and other amounts payable in accordance with Section 3.2(c) and any cash payable in lieu of any fractional ADSs in accordance with Section 3.3, in each case to be held by the Agent in trust for the benefit of the holders of the Seattle Common Stock, being hereinafter referred to as the “Distribution Fund”). Any cash in the Distribution Fund shall be invested by the Agent as directed by Miami; provided that (A) no such investment or loss thereon will affect the amounts payable pursuant to this Agreement, and (B) in the event that the Distribution Fund is for any reason insufficient to make the payments contemplated by this Agreement, Miami will, or will cause the Surviving Corporation to, promptly deposit additional funds with the Agent in an amount equal to such deficiency. Except as contemplated by Section 3.2(e), the Distribution Fund shall not be used for any purpose other than as specified in this Agreement. No later than ten (10) Business Days prior to the Closing, Miami shall enter into an agreement with the Agent, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Houston, to effect the applicable terms of this Agreement (the “Agent Agreement”).

(b) Distribution Procedures

At the Effective Time, all issued and outstanding shares of Seattle Common Stock (other than shares canceled in accordance with Section 3.1(a)(ii)) shall be converted into the right to receive ADSs pursuant to, and in accordance with, the terms of this Agreement. Immediately thereafter, the Agent shall distribute the ADSs into which the shares of Seattle Common Stock that were distributed in the Distribution have been converted pursuant to the Merger, which ADSs shall be distributed to the Persons who received Seattle Common Stock in the Distribution. The ADSs shall be accepted into The Depository Trust Company, and each Person entitled to receive Seattle Common Stock in the Distribution shall be entitled to receive in respect of the shares of Seattle Common Stock distributed to such Person a book-entry authorization representing the number of whole ADSs that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to this Section 3.2(b) (and cash in lieu of fractional ADSs pursuant to Section 3.3 and any dividends or distributions and other amounts pursuant to Section 3.2(c)), unless a physical ADR is requested by such Person or is otherwise required by applicable Law, in which case Miami shall cause the Agent to send such physical ADR to such Person promptly in accordance with the Agent Agreement. The Agent shall not be entitled to vote or exercise any rights of ownership with respect to ADSs held by it from time to time hereunder, except that it shall receive and hold all dividends or other distributions paid or distributed with respect thereto for the account of Persons entitled thereto.

The shares of Miami Common Stock underlying the ADSs issued pursuant to the Merger shall be properly and validly allotted and issued in accordance with the UK’s Companies Xxx 0000, as amended (the “Companies Act”) and the Organizational Documents of Miami, and credited as fully paid and ranking pari passu in all respects with the shares of Miami Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time; provided, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the shares of Miami Common Stock underlying the ADSs issued pursuant to the Merger (and such ADSs) shall not be entitled to receive any dividend declared in respect of a period ending on or before April 30, 2017 that has a record date on or prior to the Effective Time.

No dividends or other distributions payable with respect to ADSs or the underlying shares of Miami Common Stock with a record date after the Effective Time shall be paid to the former holders of Seattle Common Stock with respect to any ADSs that are not able to be distributed by the Agent promptly after the Effective Time, whether due to a legal impediment to such distribution or otherwise. Subject to the effect of abandoned property, escheat or similar Laws, following the distribution of any such previously undistributed ADSs, there shall be paid to the record holder of such ADSs, without interest, (i) at the time of the distribution, to the extent not previously paid, the amount of cash payable in lieu of fractional ADSs to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section 3.3 and the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time and a payment date prior to the distribution of such ADSs payable with respect to such whole ADSs or the underlying shares of Miami Common Stock, and (ii) at the appropriate payment date therefor, the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time but prior to the distribution of such ADSs and with a payment date subsequent to the distribution of such ADSs payable with respect to such whole ADSs or the underlying shares of Miami Common Stock. Miami shall deposit in the Distribution Fund all such dividends and distributions.

(d) No Further Ownership Rights in Seattle Common Stock

All ADSs issued in respect of shares of Seattle Common Stock (including any cash paid in lieu of fractional ADSs pursuant to Section 3.3) shall be deemed to have been issued in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such shares of Seattle Common Stock.

(e) Termination of Distribution Fund

Any portion of the Distribution Fund made available to the Agent that remains undistributed to the former holders of Seattle Common Stock on the one-year anniversary of the Effective Time shall be delivered to Miami, and any former holders of Seattle Common Stock who have not received ADSs in accordance with this Section 3 shall thereafter look only to Miami for payment of their claim for ADSs and any dividends, distributions or cash in lieu of fractional ADSs with respect to Miami Common Stock (subject to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law).

(f) No Liability

Neither Houston, the Surviving Corporation, Miami, Intermediate Holdco, Merger Sub, the Agent nor any other Person shall be liable to any holder of Seattle Common Stock or any holder of shares of Houston Common Stock for ADSs (or dividends or distributions with respect thereto or with respect to Seattle Common Stock) or cash properly delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law. Any portion of the Distribution Fund remaining unclaimed by holders of Seattle Common Stock as of a date which is immediately prior to such time as such amounts would otherwise escheat to or become property of any Governmental Authority shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of Miami free and clear of any claims or interest of any Person previously entitled to.

(g) Closing of Transfer Books

From and after the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of Seattle shall be closed and no transfer shall be made of any shares of capital stock of Seattle that were outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(h) Tax Withholding

Miami, Seattle, Merger Sub and the Agent shall each be entitled to deduct and withhold from the Merger Consideration or other amounts otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as are required to be deducted and withheld with respect to the making of such payment under the Code, or under any provision of state, local or foreign Tax Law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld and timely paid over to the appropriate Governmental Authority, such withheld amounts will be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the recipient.

(i) No Appraisal Rights

In accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL, no appraisal rights shall be available to holders of Seattle Common Stock in connection with the Merger.

3.3.

Fractional Shares

(a) No fractional ADSs shall be issued in the Merger, but in lieu thereof each holder of Seattle Common Stock otherwise entitled to a fractional ADS will be entitled to receive, from the Agent in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3.3, a cash payment in lieu of such fractional ADS representing such holder’s proportionate interest, if any, in the proceeds from the sale by the Agent (reduced by any fees of the Agent attributable to such sale) in one or more transactions of ADSs equal to the excess of (i) the aggregate number of ADSs to be delivered to the Agent by Miami pursuant to Section 3.2(a) over (ii) the aggregate number of whole ADSs to be distributed to the holders of shares of Seattle Common Stock pursuant to Section 3.2(b) (such excess, the “Excess ADSs”). Houston, Seattle, Miami, Intermediate Holdco and Merger Sub acknowledge that payment of the cash consideration in lieu of issuing fractional ADSs was not separately bargained-for consideration but merely represents a mechanical rounding off for purposes of avoiding the expense and inconvenience to Miami that would otherwise be caused by the issuance of fractional ADSs. As soon as practicable after the Effective Time, the Agent, as agent for the holders of Seattle Common Stock that would otherwise receive fractional ADSs, shall sell the Excess ADSs at then prevailing prices on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) in the manner provided in the following paragraph.

(b) The sale of the Excess ADSs by the Agent, as agent for the holders of Seattle Common Stock that would otherwise receive fractional ADSs, shall be executed on the NYSE and shall be made at such times, in such manner and on such terms as the Agent shall determine in its reasonable discretion. Until the net proceeds of such sale or sales have been distributed to the holders of Seattle Common Stock, the Agent shall hold such net proceeds in trust for the holders of Seattle Common Stock that would otherwise receive fractional ADSs (the “Common Shares Trust”). The Agent shall determine the portion of the Common Shares Trust to which each holder of Seattle Common Stock shall be entitled, if any, by multiplying the amount of the aggregate proceeds comprising the Common Shares Trust by a fraction, the numerator of which is the amount of the fractional ADS interest to which such holder of Seattle Common Stock would otherwise be entitled and the denominator of which is the aggregate amount of fractional ADS interests to which all holders of Seattle Common Stock would otherwise be entitled.

(c) As soon as practicable after the determination of the amount of cash, if any, to be paid to holders of Seattle Common Stock in lieu of any fractional ADS interests, the Agent shall make available such amounts to such holders of shares of Seattle Common Stock without interest, subject to and in accordance with Section 3.2.

3.4.

Houston Equity Awards and Miami Equity Awards

Each Houston Equity Award held by a Seattle Employee as of the Effective Time shall be treated as set forth in the Employee Matters Agreement.

As of the date of this Agreement, no event has occurred which, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, would (assuming the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.1 and 8.3 and the completion of the Marketing Period), (i) constitute a default or breach on the part of the Miami Parties, or to Miami’s knowledge any other party thereto, under any term or condition of the Seattle Commitment Letter (ii) constitute or result in a failure to satisfy a condition precedent set forth in the Seattle Commitment Letter or (iii) to Miami’s knowledge, otherwise result in any portion of the Financing being unavailable to Seattle on or before the Closing Date. The Seattle Commitment Letter plus available cash will provide financing sufficient for Seattle to finance the Seattle Payment and pay or reimburse all related fees and expenses associated therewith (the “Financing Obligations”). Other than as set forth in the Seattle Commitment Letter, there are no conditions precedent to the funding of the full amount of the Financing. As of the date of this Agreement, assuming the Financing is funded in accordance with the Seattle Commitment Letter and the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Sections 8.1 and 8.3 and the completion of the Marketing Period, Miami has no reason to believe that any of the conditions precedent to the Financing will not be satisfied on a timely basis or that the Financing will not be available to Seattle immediately prior to the Distribution Date.

(c) Miami has delivered to Houston true, complete and fully executed copies of an executed commitment letter (including: (A) all exhibits, schedules, annexes and amendments to such agreement in effect as of the date of this Agreement; and (B) any associated fee letters (in unredacted form) (together, as amended, restated, replaced, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and thereof, the “Miami

Commitment Letter” and, together with the Seattle Commitment Letter, collectively, the “Commitment Letters”) from JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (together with all additional lenders and financing sources added to the Miami Commitment Letter, the “Miami Lenders” and, together with the Seattle Lenders, collectively, the “Lenders”), pursuant to which, among other things, the Miami Lenders have committed to the Miami Parties to provide the Miami Parties with debt financing in the amount set forth therein (the debt financing contemplated by the Miami Commitment Letter, together with any amendment, modification, supplement, restatement, substitution or waiver thereof in accordance with the terms of this Agreement being referred to as the “Miami Financing”). As of the date of this Agreement, (x) the Miami Commitment Letter has not been amended, waived or modified, and (y) the respective commitments contained in the Miami Commitment Letter have not been withdrawn, modified or rescinded in any respect. As of the date of this Agreement, assuming the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Sections 8.1 and 8.3 and the completion of the Marketing Period, Miami has no reason to believe that any of the conditions precedent to the Miami Financing could not be satisfied on a timely basis or that the Miami Financing will not be available to Miami to the extent Miami intends to obtain such financing.

From and after the date of this Agreement and until the Effective Time, each Party shall use its reasonable best efforts to ensure the Intended Tax Treatment and shall not knowingly take any action, cause or permit any action to be taken, fail to take any action or cause any action to fail to be taken, which action or failure to act could prevent the Intended Tax Treatment. Following the Effective Time, none of Houston, Miami or any of their Affiliates shall knowingly take any action, cause or permit any action to be taken, fail to take any action or cause any action to fail to be taken, which action or failure to act could prevent the Intended Tax Treatment.

(b) Miami and Houston shall cooperate and use their respective reasonable best efforts in order for:

(i) Houston to obtain the opinion of Houston Tax Counsel, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Houston, dated as of the Closing Date, on the basis of the facts and customary representations and assumptions set forth or referred to in such opinion and the Tax Representation Letters, to the effect that, for U.S. federal income Tax purposes, (A) the Contribution, taken together with the Distribution, should qualify as a “reorganization” under Sections 368(a)(1)(D) and 355 of the Code; (B) the Distribution should qualify as a transaction in

which the Seattle Common Stock and Seattle Class B Common Stock received by holders of Houston Common Stock and Common-Equivalent Houston Preferred Stock, respectively, is “qualified property” for purposes of Section 361(c) of the Code; (C) no income, gain or loss should be recognized by Houston or Seattle upon the Contribution and the Distribution (other than intercompany items or excess loss accounts taken into account pursuant to Treasury Regulations promulgated pursuant to Section 1502 of the Code); (D) no income, gain or loss should be recognized by the holders of Houston Common Stock and Common-Equivalent Houston Preferred Stock upon the receipt of Seattle Common Stock and Seattle Class B Common Stock, respectively, in the Distribution (except with respect to the receipt of cash in lieu of fractional shares of Seattle Common Stock or Seattle Class B Common Stock, if any); (E) the Subsidiary Stock Recapitalization should qualify as a “reorganization” under Section 368(a)(1)(E) of the Code; and (F) the Merger should qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code (such opinion of Houston Tax Counsel, the “Houston Tax Opinion”).

(ii) Miami, Houston and Seattle, and others, if required, shall, as of the Closing Date, execute and deliver to Houston Tax Counsel the Tax Representation Letters dated and executed as of the Closing Date. In addition, Miami, Houston and Seattle, and others, if required, shall, as of the date the Miami Registration Statement is declared effective, execute and deliver to Houston Tax Counsel the Tax Representation Letters, dated and executed as of such date.

(c) Houston shall direct Houston Tax Counsel to notify Houston promptly upon becoming aware that it has any reason to believe it may not be able to deliver the Houston Tax Opinion at the Closing Date. In the event Houston Tax Counsel so advises Houston that it may not be able to deliver the Houston Tax Opinion, Houston shall promptly notify Miami, and following such notification, Houston shall keep Miami reasonably informed regarding its efforts to obtain the Houston Tax Opinion.

(d) Notwithstanding Section 7.03 of the Tax Matters Agreement, Houston shall not file any request for a ruling with the IRS with respect to the Intended Tax Treatment unless Houston has obtained Miami’s prior written consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). For the avoidance of doubt, Houston shall comply with the covenants described in Section 7.03 of the Tax Matters Agreement in connection with filing any such request.

(e) As of the date hereof, Houston is not aware of the existence of any fact, or has taken or agreed to take any action, that would reasonably be expected to cause any Seattle Common Stock to be exchanged in the Merger for Miami Common Stock to not be Qualified Seattle Common Stock. Houston shall not take any action that would reasonably be expected to cause, any Seattle Common Stock to be exchanged in the Merger for Miami Common Stock to not be Qualified Seattle Common Stock. Houston agrees to promptly notify Miami if, before the Effective Time, it becomes aware of the existence of any fact that would reasonably be expected to cause any Seattle Common Stock to be exchanged for Miami Common Stock to not be Qualified Seattle Common Stock.

(f) Immediately prior to the Closing on the Closing Date, Houston shall cause Seattle to deliver to Miami a certificate from Seattle, dated as of the Closing Date, stating that equity interests in Seattle are not “United States real property interests,” in form and substance as required under Treasury Regulations Sections 1.897-2(h) and 1.1445-2(c)(3), together with notice of such certificate to the IRS in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.897-2(h) (which notice shall be mailed to the IRS by Seattle following the Closing in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.897-2(h)).

(g) Houston and Seattle agree that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, no failure to obtain any tax opinion, tax ruling or third-party approval required under the Austin TMA shall affect Houston’s or Seattle’s obligations hereunder, including the obligations to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby.

Miami shall use reasonable best efforts to cause the Form 8-A and the Form F-6 to become effective under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, respectively, as promptly as practicable after they are filed with the SEC. As promptly as practicable after the Seattle Registration Statement shall have become effective, Houston shall cause the Distribution Documents to be mailed to Houston’s shareholders.

Houston shall provide, and shall cause its Subsidiaries’ Representatives to provide, Miami and its Representatives with such reasonable information and access in relation to the Seattle Business and such reasonable cooperation so as to enable Miami to prepare the Circular, the Prospectus and any supplementary circular or prospectus (including in each case all information required to verify the contents thereof in relation to the Seattle Business) (and any other Miami disclosure documents), which shall include all information as is required by Miami’s Organizational Documents, the Listing Rules, the Prospectus Rules and other applicable Laws to which Miami is subject.

would require an amendment or supplement to the Prospectus or Circular under applicable Law or the Listing Rules, the Party that discovers such information shall promptly notify the other Party and an appropriate amendment or supplement describing such information shall be promptly filed with the SEC (or in the case of an amendment or supplement to the Prospectus or the Circular, the UK Listing Authority), and, to the extent required by Law, disseminated to the shareholders of Miami or Houston. Each Party shall notify the other Party promptly of the time when the Miami Registration Statement, the Seattle Registration Statement, the Form 8-A or the Form F-6 has become effective, of the time when each of the Circular and the Prospectus has been approved by the UK Listing Authority and of the issuance of any stop order or suspension of the qualification of the ADSs issuable pursuant to the Merger or shares of Seattle Common Stock issuable in the Distribution for offering or sale in any jurisdiction. In addition, each Party agrees to promptly provide the other Party and their respective counsel with copies of any written comments or requests for amendments or supplements, and shall inform the other Party of any oral comments or requests for amendments or supplements, that such Party or its counsel may receive from time to time from the SEC, the UK Listing Authority or their respective staff with respect to the Miami Registration Statement, the Prospectus, the Circular, the Form 8-A, the Form F-6, the Seattle Registration Statement or the Schedule TO promptly after receipt of such comments, and any written or oral responses thereto.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 7.6, materials provided to the other Party or its outside counsel may be redacted to remove references concerning valuation. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, each Party agrees to promptly make (A) an appropriate filing of a Notification and Report Form pursuant to the HSR Act with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby, (B) an appropriate filing to CFIUS, including submission of a joint voluntary notice, with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby, (C) appropriate filings, if any are required, with foreign regulatory authorities in accordance with other applicable Competition Laws, with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby and (D) all other necessary or appropriate filings with other Governmental Authorities with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby, and, in each case, to supply as promptly as practicable any additional information and documentary material that may be requested pursuant to such applicable Laws or by such Governmental Authorities and to use reasonable best efforts to cause the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting periods under the HSR Act, receipt of CFIUS Clearance, and the receipt of the Approvals under such other applicable Laws or from such Governmental Authorities as soon as practicable. In connection with and without limiting the foregoing, each of Miami, Intermediate Holdco and Merger Sub, on the one hand, and Houston and Seattle, on the other hand, shall, in connection with the efforts referenced in this Section 7.6 to obtain all Approvals, use its reasonable best efforts to (x) cooperate in all respects with each other in connection with any filing or submission and in connection with any investigation or other inquiry, including any proceeding initiated by a private party, (y) promptly inform the other Party of any communication received by such party from, or given by such party to, the Antitrust Division of the Department of Justice (the “DOJ”), the Federal Trade Commission (the “FTC”) or any other Governmental Authority and of any material communication received or given in connection with any proceeding by a private party, in each case regarding any of the transactions contemplated hereby (and in each case, if any such communication is in writing, share a copy with the other party) and (z) permit the other Party to

review in advance any communication to be given by it to, and consult with each other in advance of any meeting or telephone call with, the DOJ, the FTC or any such other Governmental Authority or, in connection with any proceeding by a private party, with any other Person, and to the extent permitted by the DOJ, the FTC or such other applicable Governmental Authority or other Person, give the other Party the opportunity to attend and participate in such meetings and conferences.

(b) Without limiting this Section 7.6, but subject to the next sentence of this Section 7.6(b), each Party will take, or to cause to be taken, any and all steps and to make any and all undertakings necessary to avoid or eliminate each and every impediment under any antitrust, merger control, competition, national security or trade regulation Law that may be asserted by any Governmental Authority with respect to the Merger so as to enable the Closing to occur as soon as reasonably possible, including proposing, negotiating, committing to and effecting, by consent decree, hold separate order or otherwise, the sale, divestiture, licensing or disposition of such assets or businesses of Seattle (or the Seattle Subsidiaries) or Miami (or the Miami Subsidiaries), as applicable, or otherwise taking or committing to take action that limits Seattle’s or the Seattle Subsidiaries’ or Miami’s or the Miami Subsidiaries’, as applicable, freedom of action with respect to, or their ability to retain, any of the businesses, product lines or assets of Seattle (or the Seattle Subsidiaries) or Miami (or the Miami Subsidiaries) in each case, as may be required in order to avoid the entry of, or to effect the dissolution of, any injunction, temporary restraining order, or other order in any suit or proceeding, which would otherwise have the effect of preventing the Closing; provided, that, the effectiveness of any such sale, divestiture, license or disposition or action or commitment shall be contingent on consummation of the Merger. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the obligations of this Section 7.6(b) (i) shall not apply to each of the Parties if compliance with this Section 7.6(b) would be materially adverse to the business, financial condition or results of operations of Miami and the Miami Subsidiaries (including, solely for purposes of this sentence, Seattle and the Seattle Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, after giving effect to the Reorganization) and (ii) for the avoidance of doubt, shall not require Houston to agree to any sale, divestiture, licensing or disposition of any assets or businesses, or restriction or change in the ownership, conduct or operations of any assets or businesses, that are not included in the Seattle Business.

7.7.

Financing

(a) Miami shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, use reasonable best efforts to take (or cause to be taken) all actions necessary, proper or advisable to arrange as promptly as reasonably practicable the Financing prior to the Closing on the terms and conditions set forth in the Seattle Commitment Letter or on such other terms that would not be prohibited by Section 7.7(b) (or, in the event any portion of or all of the Financing pursuant to the Seattle Commitment Letter becomes unavailable, the Alternative Commitment Letter). Miami shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, use reasonable best efforts to (i) comply with and maintain the Seattle Commitment Letter in effect until the initial funding of the Financing and negotiate definitive agreements with respect thereto, on the terms and conditions contained therein or on such other terms that would not be prohibited by Section 7.7(b) (the “Financing Agreements”) and shall deliver to Houston a copy thereof as promptly as practicable upon reasonable request (and no later than one (1) Business Day after such request); (ii) comply with the obligations that are set forth in the Seattle Commitment Letter that are applicable to Miami or any Subsidiary of Miami

and satisfy on a timely basis all conditions precedent in the Seattle Commitment Letter and the Financing Agreements that are within its control; and (iii) fully enforce the rights of the Miami Parties under the Seattle Commitment Letter and the Financing Agreements. In the event any funds in the amounts set forth in the Seattle Commitment Letter or the Financing Agreements, or any portion thereof, become unavailable on the terms and conditions contemplated in the Seattle Commitment Letter or the Financing Agreements, or it becomes reasonably likely that such funds may become unavailable on the terms and conditions set forth therein, Miami shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, use reasonable best efforts to arrange to obtain promptly any such portion from the same or alternative sources, in an amount sufficient, when added to the portion of the Financing that is available, to allow Seattle to pay all of the Financing Obligations (the “Alternative Financing”) and to obtain, and, when obtained, to provide promptly to Houston a copy of, a new financing commitment that provides for such financing (the “Alternative Commitment Letter”) and negotiate definitive agreements with respect thereto on the terms and conditions contained therein (the “Alternative Financing Agreements”). In the event Alternative Financing is obtained, any reference in this Agreement to “Financing” shall include “Alternative Financing,” any reference to “Seattle Commitment Letter” shall include the “Alternative Commitment Letter,” any reference to “Seattle Lenders” shall include the financial institutions providing such Alternative Financing, and any reference to “Alternative Financing Agreements” shall include any definitive agreements with respect to the Alternative Commitment Letter, and all obligations of each party pursuant to this Section 7.7 shall be applicable thereto to the same extent as such party’s obligations, as the case may be, with respect to the Financing.

(b) Miami shall give Houston prompt written notice upon it or any of its Subsidiaries obtaining knowledge (w) of any material breach (or threatened material breach) or default (or any event or circumstance that, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, could reasonably be expected to give rise to any material breach or default) by any party to the Seattle Commitment Letter or the Financing Agreements; (x) of any actual or threatened withdrawal, repudiation or termination of the Financing by any of the Seattle Lenders; (y) of any material dispute or disagreement between or among any of the parties to the Seattle Commitment Letter or the Financing Agreements; and (z) of any amendment or modification of, or waiver under, the Seattle Commitment Letter or the Financing Agreements. Miami and Houston shall give each other prompt written notice if for any reason it believes in good faith that the Miami Parties or Seattle, as applicable, will not be able to timely obtain all or any portion of the Financing on the terms and in the manner or from the sources contemplated by the Seattle Commitment Letter or the Financing Agreements. Miami shall keep Houston informed in reasonable detail of the status of its efforts to arrange the Financing, including by providing copies of then-current drafts of the Financing Agreements and providing copies of all definitive agreements, in each case, upon reasonable request. The Miami Parties shall not, without the prior written consent of Houston, amend, modify, supplement, restate, substitute, replace, terminate, or agree to any waiver under the Seattle Commitment Letter in a manner that: (i) adds new or expands upon the conditions precedent to the funding of the Financing as set forth in the Seattle Commitment Letter, (ii) would reduce the aggregate amount of Financing provided for under the Seattle Commitment Letter, (iii) would limit the rights and remedies of the Miami Parties as against the Seattle Lenders; or (iv) would otherwise prevent, impair or materially delay the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents; provided, that notwithstanding the foregoing, (x) the Miami Parties may modify pricing and implement or

exercise any of the “market flex” provisions exercised by the Seattle Lenders in accordance with the Seattle Commitment Letter as of the date hereof and (y) additional lenders and financing sources may be added (including in replacement of a Seattle Lender) to the Seattle Commitment Letter (or all or a portion of the commitments may be assigned to new or existing lenders and financing sources) after the date hereof or thereof and the Miami Parties may reallocate commitments or assign or re-assign titles and roles to or among parties to the Seattle Commitment Letter. Miami shall, to the extent reasonably required for the Miami business after giving effect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, use reasonable best efforts to obtain the financing contemplated by the Miami Commitment Letter and, unless an alternative financing source is funded, or an amendment or a commitment therefor with no more onerous conditionality than that contained in the Miami Commitment Letter is obtained, use reasonable best efforts to maintain the Miami Commitment Letter in full force and effect for the aggregate amount of financing contemplated by the Miami Commitment Letter as of the date hereof and with conditionality no more onerous than in effect as of the date hereof.

(c) Prior to the Closing, Houston shall use reasonable best efforts to provide, and shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause its Representatives (and use reasonable best efforts to cause external auditors) to provide all reasonable cooperation in connection with the arrangement and consummation of the Financing and the arrangement of the Miami Financing in the bank financing market in each case, as may be reasonably requested by Miami and that is customary in connection with efforts to obtain financing of the type of the Financing and the Miami Financing, including (i) participation in a reasonable number of lender meetings, rating agency presentations and due diligence sessions at mutually agreeable times and upon reasonable notice; (ii) furnishing to Miami and the Lenders, as applicable, pertinent information regarding the Seattle Business as is customary in connection with bank facilities such as the Financing and the Miami Financing and such other financial information as may be reasonably requested by Miami in order to consummate the Financing and the Miami Financing, including furnishing to Miami information and assistance in connection with Miami’s preparation of projections and pro forma financial statements; (iii) assisting Miami and its financing sources in the marketing and syndication of the Financing and the Miami Financing and in the preparation of (A) a customary private and public bank information memorandum for the Financing and the Miami Financing; and (B) materials for rating agency presentations, lender presentations and bank syndication materials and similar documents required in connection with the Financing and the Miami Financing; (iv) taking customary corporate actions reasonably requested by Miami that are necessary to authorize and permit the consummation of the Financing; (v) providing customary authorization and management representation letters representing that the information provided by Houston and its Subsidiaries and Seattle and its Subsidies and their respective Representatives for inclusion in any confidential information memorandum or lender presentation does not include material non-public information about Houston, Seattle and their respective Subsidiaries or securities, and designating such information as suitable to be made available to lenders who do not wish to receive material non-public information and containing a customary 10b-5 representation (solely with respect to Seattle and its subsidiaries); (vi) providing such customary assistance with the preparation of any credit or loan agreements and other related definitive financing documents as may be reasonably requested and facilitating in the provision of guarantees and collateral of Seattle and its Subsidiaries, in each case, related to the Financing and the Miami Financing; and (vii) providing at least five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing all documentation and other information about the Seattle Business required by applicable “know

your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations including the USA PATRIOT Act to the extent reasonably requested at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the anticipated closing of the Financing or the Miami Financing. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 7.7(c), no action contemplated in this Section 7.7(c) shall be required if any such action shall: (I) unreasonably disrupt or interfere with the business or ongoing operations of Houston and its Subsidiaries; (II) cause any representation or warranty or covenant contained in this Agreement to be breached; (III) involve the entry into any Financing Agreement or any other binding commitment by Houston or any of its Subsidiaries (other than with respect to the Financing, in the case of Seattle and its Subsidiaries, (x) the Financing Agreements and, if applicable, Alternative Financing Agreements, and related authorizations, certificates, instruments and documents contemplated thereby, (y) documentation with respect to the Loan Escrow Demand and the borrowing contemplated thereby and (z) customary representation and authorization letters referred to in clause (v) of this Section 7.7(c)); (IV) require Houston or any of its Subsidiaries or any of its or their Representatives to provide (or to have provided on its behalf) any certificates or legal opinions (other than, in the case of Seattle and its Subsidiaries, (x) certificates delivered at the closing of the Financing (or pursuant to a Loan Escrow Demand) and on the Distribution Date and (y) upon incurrence of the Financing, a customary opinion related to the non-contravention of the Financing with the Houston Credit Agreement and any indentures to which Houston is a party on such date); (V) cause any director, officer or employee of Houston or any of its Subsidiaries to incur any personal liability; (VI) require Houston or any of its Subsidiaries to execute and deliver any pledge or security documents or certificates, documents or instruments relating to the provision of guarantees and collateral in connection with the Financing or the Miami Financing other than those related to Seattle and its Subsidiaries that shall not become effective until after the Distribution and except in connection with a Loan Escrow Demand, or (VII) without limiting clauses (III) and (VI) above, require Houston or its Subsidiaries to execute and deliver any documentation related to the Financing or the Miami Financing other than documentation which only becomes effective (i) in the case of the Financing, immediately prior to the funding of the Financing and the Distribution, except in connection a Loan Escrow Demand and (ii) in the case of the Miami Financing, after the Merger. Houston hereby consents to the use of Seattle’s and its Subsidiaries’ logos in connection with the Financing and solely in a manner that is not intended or reasonably likely to harm or disparage the reputation or goodwill of the relevant party, or any of their respective intellectual property rights.

(d) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if the Financing is available and all conditions to the Closing set forth in Section 8 have been satisfied or waived other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, Houston shall cause Seattle or a Subsidiary of Seattle to, and Seattle or such Subsidiary shall, incur the indebtedness provided for under the Seattle Commitment Letter and the Financing Agreements and use the proceeds thereof to make the Seattle Payment, including by executing and delivering to the Seattle Lenders the Financing Agreements and related certificates, instruments and documents contemplated thereby; provided that such obligations shall be subject to clauses (V), (VI) and (VII) of Section 7.7(c) mutatis mutandis and Houston shall not be required to deliver any legal opinions (other than, upon incurrence of the financing, a customary opinion related to the non-contravention of the Financing with the Houston Credit Agreement and indentures to which Houston is a party on such date). On or after April 4, 2017, if the Seattle Lenders under the Seattle Commitment Letter require that the Financing be funded and placed in escrow pursuant to the terms of the Seattle

Commitment Letter (a “Loan Escrow Demand”), Seattle or such Subsidiary shall take all actions necessary to satisfy such Loan Escrow Demand, including: (i) pledging the proceeds of such financing to the administrative agent, for the benefit of the lenders, thereunder, to secure the obligation to repay any borrowing to the extent the Closing Conditions (defined below) are not satisfied and this Agreement has been terminated pursuant to Section 9, which pledge shall provide that such proceeds shall be released prior to and in anticipation of the Distribution on terms reasonably satisfactory to Houston and Miami, (ii) entering into customary escrow arrangements reasonably satisfactory to Houston and Miami, (iii) borrowing the full amount of the Financing and placing such funds into escrow (such principal amount, the “Loan Escrow Amount”) and pre-funding in cash, in advance each quarter as contemplated in the Seattle Commitment Letter, the amount of ticking fees and interest that will accrue on such Loan Escrow Amount in accordance with the terms of the Seattle Commitment Letter through the Outside Date (as defined in the Seattle Commitment Letter) (such interest amount, the “Loan Interest Escrow Amount”). Houston and Miami shall undertake good faith discussions to consider permitting a trust company or similar entity to be the borrower of such Loan Escrow Amount. Any such escrow arrangements shall provide that (x) the Loan Escrow Amount (plus any unused Loan Interest Escrow Amounts) will be released to Seattle upon the satisfaction of the conditions to the release of proceeds of the Financing from escrow to fund the Distribution (the “Closing Conditions”) or (y) such borrowing shall be repaid at the issue price plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon in the event that the Closing Conditions are not satisfied and this Agreement has been terminated pursuant to Section 9. Seattle will pay the fees required to paid by it under the Seattle Commitment Letter.

(e) All non-public or otherwise confidential information regarding the Seattle Business obtained by Miami or its Representatives pursuant to this Section 7.7 shall be kept confidential in accordance with the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement. Notwithstanding any other provision set forth herein or in any other agreement between Houston and Miami (or their respective Affiliates), Houston agrees that Miami may share information with respect to Seattle and its business with the Lenders, and that Miami and such Lenders may share such information with potential financing sources in connection with any marketing efforts for the Financing and the Miami Financing; provided, however, that the recipients of such information and any other information contemplated to be provided by Miami or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant to this Section 7.7, agree to customary confidentiality arrangements, including “click through” confidentiality agreements and confidentially provisions contained in customary bank books and offering memoranda.

(f) Miami shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries (if the Closing occurs, such Subsidiaries shall be Seattle and its Subsidiaries) to, (i) promptly upon request by Houston, reimburse Houston or its Subsidiaries for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by Houston or its Subsidiaries in connection with cooperation provided for in Section 7.7(c) and (d) (such reimbursement to be made promptly and in any event within three (3) Business Days of delivery of reasonably acceptable documentation evidencing such expenses); provided, however, that Miami shall not be responsible for reimbursing any such costs and expenses if such costs and expenses would have been incurred by Houston and its Subsidiaries in the performance of their respective obligations pursuant to other provisions of this Agreement (including Sections 7.4 and 7.17) and the Separation and Distribution Agreement and (ii) indemnify and hold harmless Houston, its Subsidiaries and its

and their Representatives from and against any and all Losses actually suffered or incurred by them in connection with the arrangement or consummation of the Financing, the Miami Financing, or, if applicable, the Alternative Financing, and any information utilized in connection therewith (other than information provided by Houston and its Subsidiaries) except to the extent suffered or incurred as a result of (x) the gross negligence, willful misconduct or material breach of this Agreement by Houston or its Subsidiaries or (y) any default or waiver under the Houston Credit Agreement and any indentures to which Houston is a party on such date. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 7.7(f) shall not apply to the Pre-Funded Interest Amount (if any), which shall be governed by Section 9.3.

(g) Miami and Seattle shall reasonably cooperate with Houston in connection with the preparation of all documents and the making of all filings required in connection with the Exchange Offer, including by taking all such other actions as are required of Houston pursuant to Section 7.7(c), which shall, together with Section 7.7(e), apply mutatis mutandis with respect to the cooperation by Miami and Seattle in connection with the Exchange Offer by Houston.

7.8.

Access to Information

(a) Houston shall, and shall cause the Seattle Entities, on the one hand, and Miami shall, and shall cause the Miami Subsidiaries, on the other hand, afford to the other Party and to its respective Representatives, reasonable access, during normal business hours, during the Interim Period, in such manner as to not interfere with Miami’s and its Subsidiaries’ or the Seattle Entities’ (as applicable) normal operation, the properties, books and records, Contracts and appropriate senior-level officers and employees of Miami and the Miami Subsidiaries or the Seattle Entities (as applicable), and shall furnish such Party and its respective Representatives with financial and operating data of Miami and the Miami Subsidiaries or the Seattle Entities (as applicable) and other information concerning the affairs of Miami and the Miami Subsidiaries or the Seattle Entities (as applicable), in each case, as such Party and its Representatives may reasonably request solely for the purposes of preparing the filings contemplated by Section 7.4, preparing for the operation of Miami and the Surviving Corporation post-Closing and preparing the planned divestiture of any portion of the business of Miami and the Surviving Corporation post-Closing; provided, that (a) such investigation shall only be upon reasonable notice and at the sole cost and expense of the investigating Party; (b) no Party or its Representatives shall be permitted to perform any environmental sampling, including sampling of soil, groundwater, surface water, building materials, or air or wastewater emissions; and (c) that nothing in this Agreement shall require any Party to permit any inspection or disclose any information to any other Party that (i) would unreasonably interfere with the conduct of such Party’s business or result in damage to property (other than immaterial damage), except with such other Party’s written consent (which may be withheld or denied at its sole discretion), (ii) would cause a violation of any Law or any confidentiality obligations and similar restrictions that may be applicable to such information or (iii) would cause a risk of a loss of attorney-client privilege or other disclosure privilege to such Party (provided that the Party that would otherwise be required to disclose information to the other shall take any and all reasonable action necessary to permit such disclosure without such loss of privilege or violation of agreement or Law, including “clean room” or other similar procedures designed to limit any such adverse effect of the sharing of such information by each Party). The Parties hereby agree that the provisions of the Confidentiality Agreement shall apply to all information and material furnished by any Party or

its Representatives thereunder and hereunder and that nothing in this Section 7.8 shall require Houston to provide access to any of its businesses or any information other than with respect to the Seattle Business. The Confidentiality Agreement shall survive any termination of this Agreement. All requests for such access to any Party shall be made to such Party or its designated Representative. Seattle will make available to Miami prior to the Closing true and complete copies of the Organizational Documents of the Seattle Subsidiaries.

(b) Houston shall (and shall cause the other Houston Entities and the Seattle Entities to) deliver to Miami: (i) as soon as reasonably practicable after the date hereof, but in any event no later than thirty (30) days prior to the expected Closing Date (as reasonably and mutually determined by Houston and Miami or, in the absence of a mutual determination, August 31, 2017) (such date as applicable, the “Projected Closing Date”), for all Transferred Registered IP, a list of the names, addresses, email addresses and phone number of prosecution counsel and agents (to the extent known by Houston); (ii) no later than ninety (90) days prior to the Projected Closing Date, a list of all actions that must be taken for Transferred Registered IP within ninety (90) days after the Distribution Date (including the payment of any registration, maintenance, or renewal fees or the filing of any documents, corrections, or replies to any Governmental Authority, applications or certificates, for the purposes of prosecuting, maintaining, or renewing any such registered, issued, or applied-for Transferred Registered IP, to the extent known by Houston or set forth in Houston’s docketing system at the time it provides such information to Miami); and (iii) to the extent that Houston becomes aware of any changes, or if any changes are made in Houston’s docketing system, to the information that Houston has provided to Miami pursuant to clauses (i) and (ii) above, updates up to the Distribution Date on a monthly basis.

(c) Subject to and as permitted by applicable Law, Houston shall (and shall cause the other Houston Entities and the Seattle Entities to) cooperate and assist Miami in good faith with respect to: (i) after the date hereof, providing information to Miami that is reasonably sufficient to allow Miami to understand prosecution, maintenance, renewal, and new filing activities through the Distribution Date with respect to the Transferred Registered IP; and (ii) no later than thirty (30) days prior to the Projected Closing Date, providing written instructions to all prosecution counsel and agents throughout the world who are responsible for the Transferred Registered IP to instruct such counsel and agents that Miami or a Seattle Entity (as directed by Miami) will be responsible for the Transferred Registered IP as of the Distribution Date, instructing such counsel and agents to continue to prosecute and maintain the Transferred Registered IP in the ordinary course through the Distribution Date and thereafter, instructing such counsel and agents to take such actions as directed by Miami or a Seattle Entity (as directed by Miami).

7.9.

D&O Indemnification and Insurance

(a) From and after the Effective Time, Miami agrees that it shall indemnify and hold harmless each present and former director, officer and employee of any Seattle Entity against any costs or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages or liabilities incurred in connection with any claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, arising out of or pertaining to matters existing or occurring at or prior to the Effective Time, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Effective Time, to the fullest extent that Houston or any of its Subsidiaries

(including the Seattle Entities), as the case may be, would have been permitted under the Organizational Documents of Seattle in effect on the date hereof to indemnify such Person (including promptly advancing expenses as incurred to the fullest extent permitted under such Organizational Documents). Without limiting the foregoing, Miami shall cause the Seattle Entities (i) to maintain for a period of not less than six (6) years from the Effective Time provisions in their respective Organizational Documents concerning the indemnification and exoneration (including provisions relating to expense advancement) of the Seattle Entities’ respective former and current officers, directors, employees and agents that are no less favorable to those Persons than the provisions of the Organizational Documents of Houston or any of its Subsidiaries (including the Seattle Entities), as applicable, in each case, as of the date hereof and (ii) not to amend, repeal or otherwise modify such provisions in any respect that would adversely affect the rights of those Persons thereunder, in each case, except as required by Law.

(b) Miami shall procure (i) a prepaid, non-cancelable six (6)-year “tail” policy commencing on the Closing Date containing terms not less favorable than the terms of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance covering those Persons who are currently covered by the directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies of Houston or any of its Subsidiaries (including the Seattle Entities) with respect to matters existing or occurring at or prior to the Effective Time or (ii) an endorsement under Miami’s existing directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy to provide such coverage. If any claim is asserted or made within such six (6)-year period, then any insurance required to be maintained under this Section 7.9 shall be continued in respect of such claim until the final disposition thereof.

(c) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, this Section 7.9 shall survive the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and shall be binding, jointly and severally, on all successors and assigns of Miami and Seattle and are intended to be for the benefit of, and will be enforceable by, each present and former director, officer and employee of any Seattle Entity and his or her heirs and representatives. In the event that Miami or Seattle or any of their respective successors or assigns 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 transfers or conveys all or substantially all of its assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of Miami or Seattle, as the case may be, shall succeed to the obligations set forth in this Section 7.9.

7.10.

No Solicitation

(a) Miami shall immediately cease, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and Representatives to immediately cease, any discussions or negotiations with any Person that may be ongoing with respect to a Competing Proposal, or any proposal that could reasonably be expected to lead to a Competing Proposal, and shall request to have returned promptly any confidential information that has been provided in any such discussions or negotiations. From the date hereof until the earlier of the Effective Time or the date of termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 9, Miami shall not, and shall cause its respective Subsidiaries and Representatives not to, directly or indirectly, (i) solicit, initiate or knowingly encourage (including by way of furnishing information which has not been previously publicly disseminated) any Competing Proposal or any proposal which would reasonably be expected to lead to a Competing Proposal, or (ii) engage in any discussions or negotiations regarding any

Competing Proposal; provided, however, that (A) Miami may ascertain facts from the Person making an unsolicited Competing Proposal for the sole purpose of the Miami Board informing itself about the terms of such Competing Proposal and the Person that made it and (B) prior to obtaining the Miami Shareholder Approval and following the receipt of a bona fide written Competing Proposal made after the date hereof that the Miami Board determines in good faith (after receiving advice of its financial advisor and of its outside legal counsel) is or could reasonably be expected to lead to a Superior Proposal and that was not, directly or indirectly, solicited, initiated or encouraged in violation of this Section 7.10, Miami may, in response to such Competing Proposal and subject to compliance with Section 7.10(c), (x) furnish information with respect to Miami to the Person making such Competing Proposal pursuant to an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement and (y) engage in discussions or negotiations with such Person regarding such Competing Proposal; provided, that Miami may only take the actions described in the foregoing clauses (x) and (y) if it has provided Houston and Seattle with notice of its intent to take such action at least one (1) Business Day prior to taking the first of any such actions. Except as expressly permitted by this Section 7.10, Miami shall not, and shall cause its respective Subsidiaries and Representatives not to, from and after the date of this Agreement until the earlier of the Effective Time or the date, if any, on which this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 9, directly or indirectly (1) approve, endorse, recommend or enter into, or publicly propose to approve, endorse, recommend or enter into, any letter of intent, memorandum of understanding, agreement in principle, acquisition agreement, merger agreement or similar agreement (other than an Acceptable Confidentiality Agreement) with respect to any Competing Proposal; (2) take any action to make the provisions of any takeover statute inapplicable to any transactions contemplated by a Competing Proposal; (3) terminate, amend, release, modify or knowingly fail to enforce any provision of, or grant any permission, waiver or request under, any standstill or similar agreement entered into by the applicable party in respect of or in contemplation of a Competing Proposal (other than to the extent (I) the Miami Board determines in good faith after consultation with its outside legal counsel, that failure to take any of such actions under clause (3) would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with the duties that the directors owe to Miami in their capacity as directors of Miami under applicable Law and (II) Miami releases Houston of any comparable standstill or similar obligations under the Confidentiality Agreement); or (4) propose to do any of the foregoing.

(b) In addition to the provisions of Section 7.10(a), prior to receipt of the Miami Shareholder Approval, the Miami Board may (I) in response to any bona fide written Competing Proposal that was not, directly or indirectly, solicited, initiated or encouraged in violation of this Section 7.10, effect a Miami Adverse Recommendation Change or (II) for any other reason, effect a Miami Adverse Recommendation Change, in the case of each of clauses (I) and (II), if and only if (i) (A) in the case of a Competing Proposal, the Miami Board concludes in good faith, after consultation with Miami’s outside financial advisors and outside legal counsel, that such Competing Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal or (B) if for any other reason, if the Miami Board concludes in good faith, after consultation with Miami’s outside financial advisors and outside legal counsel, that the failure to take such action would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with the duties that the directors owe to Miami in their capacity as directors of Miami under applicable Law; (ii) the Miami Board provides Houston and Seattle four (4) Business Days prior written notice of its intention to take such action (an “Alternative Notice”), which notice shall (if applicable) include the information with respect to such Competing Proposal that is specified in Section 7.10(c) as well as a copy of such Competing Proposal, or the

facts and circumstances relating to such other reason, as applicable (it being agreed that neither the delivery of such notice by Miami nor any public announcement thereof that Miami determines it is required to make under applicable Law shall constitute a Miami Adverse Recommendation Change unless and until Miami shall have failed at or prior to the end of the Negotiation Period (and, upon the occurrence of such failure, such notice and such public announcement shall constitute a Miami Adverse Recommendation Change) to publicly announce that it (A) is recommending that Miami’s shareholders vote in favor of the resolutions required under the Miami Shareholder Approval and (B) in the case of a Competing Proposal, has determined that such Competing Proposal (taking into account (x) any modifications or adjustments made to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement agreed to by Houston and Seattle in writing and (y) any modifications or adjustments made to such other Competing Proposal) is not a Superior Proposal and has publicly rejected such Competing Proposal); (iii) during the four (4) Business Days following such written notice (the “Negotiation Period”), if requested by Houston or Seattle and to the extent permitted by applicable Law, the Miami Board and its Representatives have negotiated in good faith with Houston and Seattle regarding any revisions to the terms of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement proposed by Houston or Seattle in response to such Competing Proposal or such other reason; and (iv) at the end of the Negotiation Period, the Miami Board concludes in good faith, after consultation with Miami’s outside legal counsel and financial advisors (and taking into account any adjustment or modification of the terms of this Agreement to which Houston and Seattle have agreed in writing), that any Competing Proposal continues to be a Superior Proposal (if applicable) and, after consultation with Miami’s outside legal counsel, that the failure to make a Miami Adverse Recommendation Change with respect to such Competing Proposal or other reason would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with the duties that the directors owe to Miami in their capacity as directors of Miami under applicable Law. Any material amendment or modification to any Competing Proposal or to the facts and circumstances relating to such other reason shall require a new Alternative Notice and a new Negotiation Period commencing from the date of receipt of such new Alternative Notice; provided, that with respect to each subsequent written notice related to a material amendment or modification, references to the four (4) Business Day period above shall be deemed to be references to two (2) Business Days. The Parties agree that if the UK Panel on Takeovers and Mergers determines that Section 7.10(b)(ii) or (iii) requires Miami to take or not to take action, whether as a direct obligation or as a condition to any other Person’s obligation (however expressed), that is not permitted by Rule 21.2 of the City Code on Takeovers and Mergers (the “Takeover Code”), that provision shall have no effect and shall be disregarded.

(c) Without limiting the obligations set forth in Section 7.10(a) and Section 7.10(b), Miami shall promptly, and in any event no later than twenty-four (24) hours, after it receives (i) any Competing Proposal or written indication by any Person that it is considering making a Competing Proposal, (ii) any request for non-public information relating to Miami or its Subsidiaries other than requests for information in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice and unrelated to a Competing Proposal or (iii) any inquiry or request for discussions or negotiations regarding any Competing Proposal, notify Houston in writing of any of the foregoing occurrences, the identity of the Person making such request, inquiry or Competing Proposal and a copy of such request, inquiry or Competing Proposal (or where no such copy is available, a reasonably detailed description of such request, inquiry or Competing Proposal), including any modifications thereto. Miami shall keep Houston and Seattle reasonably informed

on a current basis (and in any event no later than twenty-four (24) hours after the occurrence of any material changes, developments, discussions or negotiations) of the status of any request, inquiry or Competing Proposal (including the terms and conditions thereof and of any modification thereto), and any material developments, discussions and negotiations (which shall remain subject to the other obligations of Miami hereunder), including furnishing copies of any written inquiries, material correspondence and draft documentation, and written summaries of any material oral inquiries or discussions. Miami agrees that, subject to applicable restrictions under applicable Law, it shall, prior to or substantially concurrent with the time it is provided to any third parties, provide to Houston and Seattle any non-public information concerning Miami or its Subsidiaries that Miami provided to any third party in connection with any Competing Proposal which was not previously provided to Houston and Seattle; provided, that Miami shall not be obligated to take any action contained in this Section 7.10(c) to the extent such action would require Miami to make a public announcement under the Takeover Code, the Market Abuse Regulation or the Disclosure and Transparency Rules, it being acknowledged and agreed that if any such disclosure would be so required, the Parties will cooperate in good faith to permit Miami to comply with this Section 7.10(c) without requiring such a disclosure, including by seeking confirmation from the UK Panel on Takeovers and Mergers or the UK Listing Authority (as appropriate) that Miami may provide such notice(s) or such written materials, or keep Houston so informed (as applicable), without being required to make a public announcement. Any information provided to the Company pursuant to this Section 7.10(c) above shall be subject to the Confidentiality Agreement.

(d) Nothing contained in this Agreement shall prohibit Miami or the Miami Board from taking and disclosing to its shareholders its position with respect to any (x) takeover offer for Miami or (y) other matter (provided that disclosure pursuant to clause (y) shall not limit any of Miami’s obligations hereunder) that Miami reasonably and in good faith determines requires disclosure pursuant to the Listing Rules, and such disclosure shall not be deemed a Miami Adverse Recommendation Change so long as such disclosure (i) includes the Miami Recommendation, without alternation, modification or qualification thereof, and (ii) does not otherwise effect a Miami Adverse Recommendation Change.

(e) Any failure of Miami’s Subsidiaries or their Representatives to comply with this Section 7.10 (as if such Subsidiaries or Representatives were directly subject to this Section 7.10) shall be deemed a breach of this Section 7.10 by Miami.

(f) For purposes of this Agreement:

(i) “Competing Proposal” shall mean, other than the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, any proposal or offer from a third party relating to (A) a merger, scheme of arrangement, reorganization, sale of assets, share exchange, consolidation, business combination, recapitalization, dissolution, liquidation, joint venture or similar transaction involving Miami; (B) the acquisition (whether by merger, scheme of arrangement, consolidation, equity investment, joint venture or otherwise) by any Person of twenty percent (20%) or more of the consolidated assets of Miami and the Miami Subsidiaries, as determined on a book-value or fair-market-value basis; (C) the purchase or acquisition after the date hereof, in any manner, directly or indirectly, by any Person of twenty percent (20%) or more of the issued and outstanding shares of the Miami Common Stock or any other Interests in Miami; (D) any

purchase, acquisition, tender offer or exchange offer that, if consummated, would result in any Person beneficially owning twenty percent (20%) or more of the shares of Miami Common Stock or any other Interests of Miami or any of its Subsidiaries; or (E) any combination of the foregoing.

(ii) “Superior Proposal” means a bona fide written Competing Proposal (except the references therein to “20%” shall be replaced by “50%”) made by a third party which was not solicited by Miami or any of its Representatives in violation of Section 7.10(a) and which, in the good faith judgment of the Miami Board after consultation with its outside financial and legal advisors, taking into account the various legal, financial and regulatory aspects of the Competing Proposal, (A) if accepted, is reasonably likely to be consummated on a timely basis and (B) if consummated, would result in a transaction that is more favorable to Miami’s shareholders from a financial point of view, than the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby, and after giving effect to all adjustments or modifications to the terms thereof which may be agreed in writing to be made by Houston and Seattle (including pursuant to Section 7.10(b)).

7.11.

The Parties agree that, from the date hereof through the Closing Date, no public release or announcement concerning the transactions contemplated hereby shall be issued or made by or on behalf of any Party without the prior consent of the other Parties, except that (a) any Party may make announcements from time to time in one or more filings of a current report filed with the SEC on Form 8-K (or analogous filing or disclosure required by applicable Law in the United Kingdom or the Listing Rules) that announces the execution and delivery of this Agreement or as may be required by applicable Law or the rules or regulations of any securities or stock exchange on which the securities of any Party is listed (and the Parties shall provide the other with reasonable opportunity to review and comment on such filings prior to making such filings), and (b) each Party may make announcements from time to time to their respective employees, customers, owners, suppliers and other business relations and otherwise as such Party may reasonably determine is necessary to comply with the requirements of any agreement to which such Party is a party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parties shall cooperate to prepare press releases to be issued on or promptly (and in any event within two (2) Business Days) after the date hereof and press releases to be issued on the Closing Date.

7.12.

Defense of Litigation

Miami shall keep Houston apprised in the defense of any Action brought by shareholders of Miami or in the name of Miami against Miami and/or its directors relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the Merger and the Miami Share Issuance; provided, that prior to the Effective Time, Miami shall not compromise, settle, come to an arrangement regarding or agree to compromise, settle or come to an arrangement regarding any Action arising or resulting from the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or consent to the same, without the prior written consent of Houston (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) to the extent (a) such Action includes Houston or any of its Subsidiaries, directors or officers as named defendants or (b) such compromise, settlement or arrangement would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the ability of the Parties to perform their respective obligations hereunder, or to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby in a timely manner.

7.14.

Nothing contained in this Agreement shall give Houston or Seattle, directly or indirectly, the right to control or direct Miami’s operations prior to the Effective Time. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall give Miami, directly or indirectly, the right to control or direct the operations of the Seattle Business prior to the Effective Time.

The Separation Committee will have access, consistent with the terms of this Agreement (including the limitations set forth in Section 7.8(a), mutatis mutandis), to each other Party’s properties, books and records, Contracts and appropriate senior-level officers and employees; provided, however, that the Separation Committee will neither direct nor interfere with the day to day management or operations of the business of Houston, Seattle, or Miami.

Amendments and Waivers

(a) Any Party may, at any time prior to the Closing, by action taken by its board of directors, or officers thereunto duly authorized, waive any of the terms or conditions of this Agreement or (without limiting Section 10.3(b)) agree to an amendment or modification to this Agreement by an agreement in writing executed in the same manner (but not necessarily by the same Persons) as this Agreement; provided, that after the Miami Shareholder Approval has been obtained, no amendment or waiver shall be made that pursuant to applicable Law requires further approval or adoption by the shareholders of Miami without such further approval or adoption. No waiver by any of the Parties of any breach hereunder shall be deemed to extend to any prior or subsequent breach hereunder or affect in any way any rights arising by virtue of any prior or subsequent such occurrence. No waiver by any of the Parties of any of the provisions hereof shall be effective unless explicitly set forth in writing and executed by the Party sought to be charged with such waiver.

(b) This Agreement may be amended or modified, in whole or in part, only by a duly authorized agreement in writing executed by the Parties in the same manner as this Agreement and which makes reference to this Agreement; provided, that any amendments or modifications of this Section 10.3(b) or Sections 9.3(c), 10.4 or 10.5, to the extent adversely affecting any of the Lenders or their respective Lender Related Parties, shall not be effective with respect to such affected Lenders or Lender Related parties unless such affected Lenders party to the Commitment Letters provide their prior written consent to such amendment or modification.

10.4.

Governing Law; Jurisdiction; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL

(a) This Agreement, and all Actions (whether in contract or tort) that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement or the negotiation, execution or performance hereof (including any claim or cause of action based upon, arising out of or related to any representation or warranty made in or in connection with this Agreement or as an inducement to enter into this Agreement) shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the Law of the State of Delaware, without regard to the choice of law or conflicts of law principles thereof (except for the duties of the members of the Miami Board, which shall be governed by the Laws of England and Wales). Except as expressly set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, the Parties expressly waive any right they may have, now or in the future, to demand or seek the application of a governing Law other than the Law of the State of Delaware.

112

(b) Each of the Parties hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction 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 sitting in Delaware, and any appellate court from any appeal thereof, in any Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, and each of the Parties hereby irrevocably and unconditionally (i) agrees not to commence any such Action except in such courts, (ii) agrees that any claim in respect of any such Action may be heard and determined in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or, to the extent permitted by Law, in such federal court, (iii) waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such Action in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or such federal court and (iv) waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such Action in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or such federal court. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, each of the Parties: (i) agrees that it will not bring or support any legal proceedings against any of the Lenders or their Lender Related Parties in any way relating to the Financing or the Miami Financing in any forum other than the federal and New York state courts located in the Borough of Manhattan within the City of New York; (ii) agrees that, except as specifically set forth in the Commitment Letters or the Financing Agreements, all claims or causes of action (whether at law, in equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise) against any of the Lenders or their Lender Related Parties relating to the Financing or the Miami Financing shall be exclusively governed by and construed in accordance with the internal Laws of the State of New York; (iii) agrees to waive and hereby waives, irrevocably and unconditionally, any right to a trial by jury in any such legal action, suit or proceeding; and (iv) agrees to waive and hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, any objection which such Party may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of, and the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of, any such legal action, suit or proceeding in any such court. Each of the Parties agrees that a final judgment in any such Action shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Law. Each Party irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 10.2. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any Party to serve process in any other manner permitted by Law.

(c) EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE IT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OF THE TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (INCLUDING THE FINANCING). EACH PARTY CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (I) NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE EITHER OF SUCH WAIVERS, (II) IT UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF SUCH WAIVERS, (III) IT MAKES SUCH WAIVERS VOLUNTARILY AND (IV) IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 10.4(c).

113

10.5.

Assignment; Parties in Interest; Non-Parties

(a) No Party may assign its rights or delegate its duties under this Agreement without the written consent of the other Parties. Any attempted assignment or delegation in breach of this Section 10.5 shall be null and void; provided, however, that Miami and Seattle may collaterally assign their respective rights (but not obligations) under this Agreement to any of the Lenders or any Lender Related Party or other financing source. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective permitted successors and assigns. Nothing expressed or implied in this Agreement is intended or shall be construed to confer upon or give any Person, other than the Parties, any rights or remedies under or by reason of this Agreement, except as provided in Section 7.9 and Section 10.5 (which is intended to be for the benefit of the Persons covered thereby and may be enforced by such Persons)

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, it is hereby agreed and acknowledged that this Agreement may only be enforced against, and any claims of action that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement may only be made against, the Parties hereto, and no former, current or future Affiliates, officers, directors, managers, employees, equityholders, Lenders or Lender Related Parties, financing sources, managers, members, partners, agents or representatives of any Party, in each case, who is not a Party to this Agreement, shall have any liability for any obligations of the Parties hereto or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, the transactions contemplated hereby. The Lenders and the Lender Related Parties are third party beneficiaries of Section 9.3(c), Section 10.3(b), Section 10.4(b), and this Section 10.5. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 10.5(b) shall not affect (a) the rights of the Persons party to the Commitment Letters to enforce the Commitment Letters in accordance with its terms; or (b) the rights and obligations of the Parties hereto set forth in Section 7.7.

10.6.

Captions; Counterparts

The captions in this Agreement are for convenience only and shall not be considered a part of or affect the construction or interpretation of any provision of this Agreement. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts (including by electronic or .pdf transmission), each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of any signature page by facsimile, electronic or .pdf transmission shall be binding to the same extent as an original signature page.

10.7.

Entire Agreement

This Agreement, the Transaction Documents and the Confidentiality Agreement, including any related annexes, Exhibits and Schedules, as well as any other agreements and documents referred to herein and therein, shall together constitute the entire agreement between the Parties relating to the transactions contemplated hereby and supersede any other agreements, whether written or oral, that may have been made or entered into by or among any of the Parties or any of their respective Affiliates relating to the transactions contemplated hereby.

114

10.8.

Severability

If any provision of this Agreement or any Transaction Document, or the application of any provision to any Person or circumstance, is held invalid or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction, the other provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. The Parties further agree that if any provision contained herein is, to any extent, held invalid or unenforceable in any respect under the Laws governing this Agreement, they shall take any actions necessary to render the remaining provisions of this Agreement valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by Law and, to the extent necessary, shall amend or otherwise modify this Agreement to replace any provision contained herein that is held invalid or unenforceable with a valid and enforceable provision giving effect to the intent of the Parties.

10.9.

Specific Performance

In the event of any actual or threatened default in, or breach of, any of the terms, conditions and provisions of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, the Party who is, or is to be, thereby aggrieved shall have the right to specific performance and injunctive or other equitable relief in respect of its rights under this Agreement or such Transaction Document. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Parties hereto agree that each Party shall be entitled to enforce specifically the other Parties’ obligations to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including the obligation to consummate the Closing and the obligations with respect to the Financing), if the conditions set forth in Section 8 have been satisfied (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing) or waived (where permissible under applicable Law). The Parties agree that the remedies at law for any breach or threatened breach, including monetary damages, are inadequate compensation for any loss and that any defense in any Action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate is waived. Any requirements for the securing or posting of any bond with such remedy are waived by each of the Parties.
