(b)Indemnification Obligations of Buyer. Subject to the limitations contained in Sections 5.1 and 5.2, from and after the Closing, Buyer shall indemnify Seller and its Affiliates, officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives, successors and permitted assigns (collectively, the “Seller Indemnified Persons”) in respect of any Losses which any Seller Indemnified Person may suffer as a result of, based upon, or arising from any nonfulfillment or breach of any covenant, agreement or other provision by Buyer under this Agreement.

5.3 Limitations on Indemnification. Notwithstanding anything contained in Section 5.2, the indemnification obligations of the Parties are subject to the following limitations:

(a)Neither Seller nor Buyer shall be required to indemnify the Buyer Indemnified Persons or the Seller Indemnified Persons, respectively, against, or reimburse any such Person in respect of any Losses for which indemnity is claimed under Section 5.2 to the extent that the aggregate amount of such Losses indemnifiable by Seller or Buyer, as applicable, exceeds the Final Purchase Price, provided that indemnification for claims under Section 5.2(a)(iii) shall be limited in the aggregate to $[***]; indemnification for claims under Section 5.2(a)(vii) shall be limited in the aggregate to $[***]; indemnification for claims under Section 5.2(a)(viii) shall be limited in the aggregate to $[***]; and indemnification for claims under Section 6.20(f) shall not be limited to the Final Purchase Price cap set forth above.

(b)In no event shall either Party be liable to any Buyer Indemnified Person or Seller Indemnified Person, as applicable, for any special or punitive damages relating to the breach or alleged breach of this Agreement, except to the extent actually awarded or paid in connection with a Third Party Claim.

(c)Payments by either Party pursuant to Section 5.2 in respect of any Loss shall be limited to the amount of any such Loss that remains after deducting therefrom any insurance proceeds and any indemnity, contribution or other similar payment actually received by the Buyer Indemnified Person or the Seller Indemnified Person, as applicable, in respect of the underlying Claim (less the sum of (i) reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses relating to collection of such proceeds, (ii) any incremental increase in premiums directly resulting therefrom, and (iii) any deductible or retention associated therewith).

(d)Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, no Buyer Indemnified Person, nor any of its Affiliates, shall have any right to indemnification under this Agreement with respect to, or based on, Taxes to the extent that such Taxes (i) are not Pre-Closing Taxes or (ii) are actually recoverable (without any requirement to commence litigation against any insurer) pursuant to the R&W Insurance Policy (taking into account the exclusions and limitations set forth therein); provided that, this clause (ii) shall not prevent any Buyer Indemnified Person from making an indemnity Claim hereunder for Pre-Closing Taxes simultaneously with, or during the pendency of any Claim for such Pre-Closing Taxes under the R&W Insurance Policy; provided, further, that such Buyer Indemnified Person shall (A) diligently pursue such Claim for such Pre-Closing Taxes under the R&W Insurance Policy, and (B) promptly reimburse Seller for any amounts paid to such Buyer Indemnified Person pursuant to an indemnity Claim for Pre-Closing Taxes under this Agreement to the extent of any amounts recovered pursuant to a simultaneous Claim under the R&W Insurance Policy.

5.4 Manner of Payment.

(a)Any indemnification owing pursuant to this Article V by Seller shall be paid, at Buyer’s sole discretion, by (i) set-off against, with respect to Claims that are not in dispute in accordance with Section 5.5 or Section 5.6 (or, if disputed, adjudicated to be owed), any payments due and payable under any New Sublease Agreement, or (ii) directly by Seller by wire transfer of immediately available funds.

(b)The rights of set-off provided in Section 5.4(a)(i) are in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other rights or remedies available to Buyer or any Buyer Indemnified Person, and Buyer’s exercise of such set-off rights with respect to any portion of an indemnification Claim shall not limit the rights or remedies of any Buyer Indemnified Person with respect to any unpaid portion of such Claim.

5.5 Third Party Claims.

(a)If any Claim is initiated by any third party (a “Third Party Claim”) against any Person entitled to seek indemnification under this Article V (an “Indemnified Party”), and if such Indemnified Party intends to seek indemnification with respect thereto under this Article V, such Indemnified Party shall promptly, after receipt of written notice of such Third Party Claim, provide written notice of such Third Party Claim to the party or parties from whom the Indemnified Party intends to seek indemnification (the “Responsible Party”), which notice shall describe such Third Party Claim in reasonable detail and the amount claimed in respect thereof (if known and quantifiable); provided, that the failure to so notify a Responsible Party shall not relieve such Responsible Party of its obligations hereunder unless and to the extent the Responsible Party shall be actually and materially prejudiced by such failure to so notify. A Responsible Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense of such Third Party Claim giving rise to an Indemnified Party’s claim for indemnification at such Responsible Party’s expense, and at its option (subject to the limitations set forth below) shall be entitled to assume the defense thereof with reputable counsel chosen by the Responsible Party in connection with such defense within 30 days of its receipt of notice of the Third Party Claim; provided, that prior to the Responsible Party assuming control of such defense, it shall demonstrate to the Indemnified Party in writing such Responsible Party’s financial ability to provide full indemnification to the Indemnified Party with respect to such Third Party Claim (including the ability to post any bond required by the court or adjudicative body before which such Third Party Claim is taking place) and, subject to the limitations set forth herein, agree in writing to be fully responsible for all Losses relating to such Third Party Claim; provided, further, that:

(b)the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate (at its sole cost) in the defense of such claim and to employ counsel of its choice for such purpose (it being understood and agreed, for the avoidance of doubt, that any fees and expense of counsel incurred by the Indemnified Party prior to the date that the Responsible Party assumes the defense of such claim shall be indemnified Losses hereunder);

(c)the Responsible Party shall not be entitled to assume control of such defense if (i) the claim for indemnification relates to or arises in connection with any criminal proceeding, action, indictment, allegation or investigation, (ii) the Indemnified Party reasonably believes an

adverse determination with respect to the Third Party Claim giving rise to such claim for indemnification would be materially detrimental to or materially injure the Indemnified Party’s reputation or future business prospects including if there is a reasonable likelihood that such Third Party Claim would be the subject of unwanted media attention or negative publicity, (iii) such claim seeks an injunction or equitable relief against the Indemnified Party, (iv) a conflict of interest exists between the Responsible Party and the Indemnified Party, (v) the Responsible Party failed or is failing to vigorously (given the nature of such claim) and in good faith prosecute or defend such claim, or (vi) the Indemnified Party is a Buyer Indemnified Person and the defense of such Third Party Claim by the Responsible Party would be, as reasonably determined by the Indemnified Party, expected to materially adversely affect the Indemnified Party’s relationship with any of such party’s material customers or vendors; and

(d)if the Responsible Party shall control the defense of any such claim, the Responsible Party shall obtain the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party before entering into any settlement of a Third Party Claim or ceasing to defend such claim or Third Party Claim unless (i) the settlement involves only payment of money damages, (ii) all such money damages will be the responsibility of, and paid by, the Responsible Party, (iii) the settlement does not impose any injunction or other equitable relief on, and contains no admission of wrongdoing by, the Indemnified Party, and (iv) the settlement contains a legally binding, unconditional and irrevocable releases of the Indemnified Party from all Liabilities with respect to such claim.

5.6 Direct Claims. A claim for indemnification for any matter not involving a Third Party Claim (a “Direct Claim”) shall be asserted by the Indemnified Party to the Responsible Party in writing with reasonable promptness. The failure to give such prompt written notice shall not, however, relieve the Responsible Party of its indemnification obligations, unless and only to the extent that the Responsible Party shall be actually and materially prejudiced by such failure to notify. Such notice by the Indemnified Party shall describe the obligation with respect to which the Direct Claim is made, the facts giving rise to and the alleged basis for such Direct Claim. If the Responsible Party disputes its obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Party under this Article V, the Responsible Party shall have 60 days after its receipt of such notice to give written notice of such objection, and the grounds thereof. If the Responsible Party does not so respond within such 60-day period, the Responsible Party shall be deemed to have acknowledged the validity of such Direct Claim. If the Responsible Party disputes such Direct Claim in writing during the 60-day period, then during the 30-day period following delivery of written notice of dispute by the Responsible Party, the Indemnified Party and the Responsible Party shall seek in good faith to resolve the disputed claim. If after 30 days the Parties are unable to come to an agreement regarding such indemnification obligations, the amount of indemnification to which an Indemnified Party shall be entitled shall be determined by either (a) the written agreement between the Indemnified Party and the Responsible Party, (b) a final written judgment or decree of any Government Entity of competent jurisdiction, or (c) any other means to which the Indemnified Party and the Responsible Party shall agree.

5.7 Final Purchase Price Adjustment. All indemnification payments made under this Article V shall be deemed to be an adjustment to the Final Purchase Price for Tax purposes.

5.8 Exclusive Remedies. The remedies provided in this Article V, subject to the limitations set forth herein, shall, from and after the Closing, be the sole and exclusive monetary remedies of the Buyer Indemnified Persons and the Seller Indemnified Persons with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (except (a) in the case of Fraud and (b) for any other remedies expressly set forth in Sections 2.3, 6.3, 6.4, 6.5, 6.11, 6.12, 9.2 and 9.12), and subject to the foregoing, neither the Buyer Indemnified Persons nor the Seller Indemnified Persons shall have any other rights or remedies in connection with any breach of this Agreement, or any other Loss arising out of the negotiation, entry into or consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement for the recovery of Losses resulting from, relating to or arising out of this Agreement; provided, that this Section 5.8 shall not be deemed a waiver by any Party of its right to seek specific performance or injunctive relief in the case of a failure by the other Party to comply with the covenants made by such other Party hereto. The foregoing shall in no way limit the remedies available to any Person pursuant to any other Transaction Document. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, from and after Closing, Buyer shall have no recourse against Seller, Seller Guarantor or their Affiliates for any inaccuracy or breach of any representation or warranty, and Buyer’s sole recourse for any such inaccuracy or breach shall be under the R&W Insurance Policy, except in the case of Fraud.

5.9 Tax Benefits. Any calculation of Losses for purposes of this Article V shall be reduced to take account of any net Tax benefit actually realized in cash in the same taxable year in which such Losses are incurred by the Indemnified Party as a result of any such Losses.

Article VI
Covenants and Agreements

Each of the Parties hereto agrees as follows with respect to the period after the Closing Date:

6.1 Tax Matters.

(a)Allocation of Taxes for a Straddle Period. For any Straddle Period, Taxes shall be attributable to the portion of such period ending on the Closing Date in an amount equal to: (i) in the case of any gross receipts, income, sales, revenue, payroll, employment or similar Taxes, the portion of such Taxes allocable to the portion of the Straddle Period ending on or before the Closing Date, as determined on the basis of the deemed closing of the books and records of the Company at the end of the Closing Date (unless otherwise required by applicable Tax Law) and (ii) in the case of any Taxes other than those described in clause (i), the Taxes for the entire Straddle Period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the Straddle Period from the beginning of the Straddle Period through and including the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in the entire Straddle Period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all applicable Tax deductions in respect of Seller Expenses shall be allocated to the Pre-Closing Tax Period to the extent “more likely than not” (or higher standard) allowed by applicable Law, and all deferred intercompany gain described in Treasury Regulations under Section 1502 of the Code (or any corresponding or similar provision of state, local, or non-U.S. Law) entered into or created on or prior to the Closing Date shall be allocated to the Pre-Closing Tax Period.

(b)Tax Returns for Straddle Periods and Pre-Closing Periods.

(i)Seller shall prepare or cause to be prepared and file or cause to be filed all Tax Returns for any Affiliated Group of which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries are members along with Seller or any of its Affiliates (other than the Company and its Subsidiaries) and all Tax Returns for the Excluded Entities (the “Seller Group Returns”). The Company and its Subsidiaries shall provide, and Buyer shall cause the Company and its Subsidiaries to provide, to the Seller Tax information in the possession or control of the Company and its Subsidiaries to the extent such information is reasonably ascertainable or was actually provided by Seller to Buyer pursuant to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, reasonably requested, in writing, by Seller for inclusion in the Seller Group Returns for a Pre-Closing Tax Period; provided, that Seller shall in no event have any right to review or access any Tax Return of the Company or its Subsidiaries filed after the Closing Date except to the extent relating to a Pre-Closing Tax Period. Seller shall remit or cause to be remitted to the appropriate Taxing Authority all amounts due and payable in connection with such Seller Group Returns. Seller shall prepare or cause to be prepared and file or cause to be filed all income Tax Returns of the Company and its Subsidiaries (other than Seller Group Returns) for tax periods that end on or before the Closing Date that have not been filed as of the Closing Date (the “Pre-Closing Tax Returns”), and all such Pre-Closing Tax Returns shall be prepared in a manner consistent with past practice with respect to the Company and its Subsidiaries unless otherwise required by applicable Law or this Agreement. Seller shall provide drafts of each such Pre-Closing Tax Return to Buyer for Buyer’s review and comment at least 30 days prior to the due date for filing such Pre-Closing Tax Return (including any applicable extensions) or, in the case of Pre-Closing Tax Returns filed on a more frequent than annual basis, as soon as reasonably practicable but at least five days prior to the due date for filing such Pre-Closing Tax Return. For the avoidance of doubt, any Pre-Closing Tax Return that is normally filed on an annual basis, but that is required to be filed for a period of less than one year due to a termination or other event (e.g., a “stub” period income Pre-Closing Tax Return of the Company or its Subsidiaries for the period ending on the Closing Date) shall not be considered a Pre-Closing Tax Return filed on a more frequent than annual basis. Seller shall consider in good faith all reasonable comments made in writing by Buyer at least 15 days prior to the due date for filing such Pre-Closing Tax Return or, in the case of Pre-Closing Tax Returns filed on a more frequent than annual basis, at least two days prior to the due date of such Pre-Closing Tax Return; provided, that Seller shall not be required to accept any comments that do not reflect, in its good faith judgment, a position that is at least “more likely than not” to be sustained. Seller shall jointly and severally pay to Buyer the amount of the Taxes with respect to such Pre-Closing Tax Returns for which Seller is responsible under Section 5.2(a)(ii) within five days of filing the applicable Pre-Closing Tax Return to which such Taxes relate, but only to the extent that such Taxes were not included as Net Working Capital, Unpaid Income Taxes, Closing Indebtedness, or Closing Payroll Taxes or otherwise taken into account in the calculation of the Final Purchase Price under Section 2.3.

(ii)Buyer shall prepare or cause to be prepared and file or cause to be filed all non-income Tax Returns of the Company and its Subsidiaries (other than, for the avoidance of doubt, the Excluded Entities) for tax periods that end on or before the Closing Date that are required to be filed after the Closing, and all Tax Returns of the Company and its Subsidiaries for the Straddle Period. Buyer shall provide drafts of each such Tax Return to Seller for Seller’s review and comment at least 30 days prior to the due date for filing such Tax Return (including any applicable extensions) or, in the case of Tax Returns filed on a more frequent than annual basis, as soon as reasonably practicable but at least five days prior to the due date for filing such Tax Return. Buyer shall consider in good faith all reasonable comments made in writing by Seller at least 15 days prior to the due date for filing such Tax Return or, in the case of Tax Returns filed on a more frequent than annual basis, at least two days prior to the due date of such Tax Return; provided, that Buyer shall not be required to accept any comments that do not reflect, in its good faith judgment, a position that is at least “more likely than not” to be sustained. Seller shall pay to Buyer the amount of the Taxes with respect to such Tax Returns for which Seller is responsible under Section 5.2(a)(ii) within five days of filing the applicable Tax Return to which such Taxes relate, but only to the extent that such Taxes were not included as Net Working Capital, Unpaid Income Taxes, Closing Indebtedness, or Closing Payroll Taxes or otherwise taken into account in the calculation of the Final Purchase Price under Section 2.3.

(c)Other Tax Return Matters.

(i)Buyer shall not, and shall not permit any of its Affiliates (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the Company and its Subsidiaries) to, (A) file (except as set forth in Section 6.1(b)), amend, refile, revoke or otherwise modify any material Tax Return or Tax election of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries with respect to a Pre-Closing Tax Period, (B) except as set forth in Section 6.1(c)(ii), initiate any voluntary disclosure or similar process with respect to any Taxes or Tax Returns of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that were originally due on or before the Closing Date (taking into account any applicable extensions), (C) make an election under Section 336 or 338 of the Code (or any comparable applicable provision of state, local or foreign Tax law) with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (D) make any Tax election with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that is retroactively effective on or before the Closing Date, (E) with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, to engage in any transaction after the Closing on the Closing Date outside the Ordinary Course (other than as contemplated by this Agreement), or (F) carry back any item of loss, deduction, credit or other tax benefit of or in respect of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries from any taxable period into any Pre-Closing Tax Period, in each of (A) – (F) unless required by applicable Law or at the direction of a Taxing Authority or with the prior written consent of Seller (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) if such action is reasonably likely to result in a material increase in Pre-Closing Taxes, Unpaid Income Taxes or the Tax Liability of Seller or a member of the Affiliated Group that includes Seller.

(ii)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement (including Section 6.1(c)(i)), following the Closing, Buyer may, in its sole discretion but solely with respect to (A) self-procurement Tax Returns or other premium-based Tax Returns of Colchester and (B) the Escheat and Unclaimed Property Obligations, cause the Company or any of the Company’s Subsidiaries to enter into voluntary disclosure agreements in accordance with applicable published programs of the relevant Government Entity and standard administrative practices (to the extent that such programs and practices exist in the relevant jurisdiction) (“VDA”), which VDAs relate to (x) Taxes for taxable periods (or portions thereof) ending on or prior to the Closing Date and (y) the Escheat and Unclaimed Property Obligations; provided that (A) Buyer shall only be entitled to initiate any such VDA within 18 months following the Closing Date and shall provide notice to Seller no later than five Business Days prior to the initiation of any such VDA, (B) such VDA shall be pursued in good faith with reasonable efforts to minimize any liability, (C) entry into any such VDA shall not constitute, or be deemed to constitute, an admission of wrongdoing or personal liability by Seller to Buyer, with Buyer’s sole right to indemnification being pursuant to Article V, (D) Buyer shall in good faith consider the reasonable comments submitted to Buyer by Seller, and (E) Seller shall have the right to participate in any such VDA at its own expense.

(iii)The parties agree that, except as required by applicable Law, (i) no election shall be made under Treasury Regulations Section 1.1502-76(b)(2)(ii)(D) to ratably allocate items (or make any similar election or ratably allocate items under any corresponding provision of applicable Law) and (ii) the parties shall not apply the “next day” rule of Treasury Regulations Section 1.1502-76(b)(1)(ii)(B) (or make any similar election or ratably allocate items under any corresponding provision of applicable Law) with respect to any of the Tax deductions for Seller Expenses, which shall be reported in accordance with Section 6.1(a).

(d)Tax Sharing Agreements. As of the Closing Date, Seller Guarantor and the Company (or any of their respective Subsidiaries, as applicable) shall have terminated any Tax sharing agreements or arrangements between Seller Guarantor (or any of its Affiliates) and the Company (or any of their respective Subsidiaries, as applicable), and such Tax sharing agreements or arrangements shall have no further effect for any taxable year (whether the current year, a future year or a past year). After the Closing Date, the Company and its Subsidiaries shall not have any further rights or Liabilities thereunder or under any payables or receivables arising therefrom or thereunder.

(e)Cooperation on Tax Matters.

(i)Buyer and the Company, on the one hand, and Seller on the other, shall reasonably cooperate, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other Party, in connection with the preparation and filing of any Tax Returns pursuant to this Section 6.1 and any Claim with respect to Taxes. Such cooperation shall include the retention and, upon the other Party’s request, the provision of records and information that are reasonably relevant to any such Claim and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information

and explanation of any material provided hereunder; provided that (x) Buyer and the Company shall not be required to provide Seller any Affiliated Group Tax Return or portion thereof (including any work papers or related documentation) of Buyer or its Affiliates, (y) Seller shall not be required to provide Buyer any Seller Group Return or portion thereof (including any work papers or related documentation), and (z) with respect to any information sought by Seller or its representatives with respect to any direct indemnification claim between any Indemnified Party and Seller under Article V, the applicable rules of discovery shall apply in lieu of this Section 6.1(e). Buyer and the Company, on the one hand, and Seller, on the other hand, agree to retain all books and records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to the Company and its Subsidiaries relating to any taxable period beginning before the Closing Date for a period of seven years and to abide by all record retention agreements entered into with any Taxing Authority; provided, that Buyer may dispose of such books and records that are offered in writing to, but not accepted by, Seller.

(ii)Buyer and Seller further agree, upon request, to use their commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any certificate or other document from any Government Entity or any other Person as may be necessary to mitigate, reduce or eliminate any Transfer Tax that could be imposed with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(f)Transfer Taxes. All transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration and other such Taxes and fees (including any penalties and interest) incurred in connection with this Agreement (“Transfer Taxes”) shall be economically borne 50% on the one hand by Buyer and 50% on the other hand by Seller. All Transfer Taxes shall be paid to the relevant Government Entity when due by the Party which is legally responsible in the first instance under applicable Law for paying such Transfer Taxes, and such Party shall, at its own expense and with the reasonable cooperation of the other Party, timely file any Tax Return or other document with respect to such Transfer Taxes. The Party not legally responsible for paying such Transfer Taxes shall promptly reimburse the other Party for its share of such Transfer Taxes within five Business Days following the receipt of written request from the other Party for such Transfer Taxes. Buyer and Seller agree to, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, reasonably cooperate in the execution and delivery of all instruments and certificates reasonably necessary to remit and/or minimize the amount of any such Transfer Taxes. Buyer and Seller further agree to conduct, or cause to be conducted, a Transfer Tax analysis which will set forth the Transfer Taxes that are due and owing and identify the Party responsible for such Transfer Tax, and the costs of such analysis shall be economically borne 50% on the one hand by Buyer, and 50% on the other hand by Seller.

(g)Tax Contests. After the Closing, each of Buyer and Seller shall promptly notify the other in writing of the proposed assessment or the commencement of any Tax audit or administrative or judicial proceeding or of any demand or claim with respect to Taxes, of which such Party has been informed in writing by any Taxing Authority imposed on Buyer, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, which, if determined adversely to the taxpayer or after the lapse of time, could be grounds for indemnification under this Agreement. Such notice shall contain factual information (to the extent known to Seller, Buyer, or the Company, as applicable) describing the asserted Liability for Taxes in reasonable detail and shall include copies of any notice or other document received from any Taxing Authority in respect of any such asserted Liability for Taxes,

provided, that failure to so notify Seller shall not relieve Seller of its obligations hereunder unless and to the extent Seller is actually and materially prejudiced thereby. In the case of a Tax audit, or administrative or judicial proceeding, with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (a “Contest”) that relates to a Seller Group Return or that otherwise relates solely to a Pre-Closing Tax Period excluding any Straddle Period (a “Seller Contest”), Seller shall have the right, at its sole expense, to control the conduct of such Seller Contest; provided, that, in each case other than in respect of a Seller Contest that relates to a Seller Group Return, (i) Seller shall diligently prosecute such Seller Contest in good faith, (ii) Seller shall keep Buyer reasonably informed of the status of developments with respect to such Seller Contest, (iii) Seller shall not settle, discharge, or otherwise dispose of any such Seller Contest to the extent it could reasonably be expected to adversely affect the Tax liability of Buyer, the Company or any of the Company’s Subsidiaries for any taxable period beginning after the Closing Date without the prior written consent of Buyer (which consent is not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), and (iv) Buyer shall have the right to fully participate at its sole expense in any such Seller Contest. For the avoidance of doubt, the Tax Liens shall be a Seller Contest subject to the provisions of this Section 6.1(g). Buyer shall control and shall have the right to discharge, settle, or otherwise dispose of, at its sole expense, all other Contests; provided, for any such Contest that relates to a Pre-Closing Tax Period, (A) Buyer shall diligently prosecute such other Contest in good faith, (B) Buyer shall keep Seller reasonably informed of the status of developments with respect to such other Contest, (C) Buyer shall not settle, discharge, or otherwise dispose of any such other Contest to the extent it would increase the Tax liability of Seller for any taxable period ending on or before the Closing Date without the prior written consent of Seller (which consent is not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), and (D) Seller shall have the right to fully participate in any such other Contest at its sole expense. To the extent of any inconsistency between this Section 6.1(g) and Article V, this Section 6.1(g) shall control.

(h)Tax Refunds. Seller shall be entitled to all Tax refunds and credits (and any interest thereon) of the Company and its Subsidiaries relating to any Pre-Closing Tax Period, including the portion of a Straddle Period ending on and including the Closing Date, other than any such Tax refunds or credits to the extent included in the computation of the Final Purchase Price pursuant to Section 2.3, net of any reasonable out-of-pocket cost and expenses (including any Tax) incurred or suffered by the Company, its Subsidiaries, Buyer, or their respective Affiliates with respect to the receipt or obtaining thereof (collectively, “Tax Refunds”). Any Tax Refunds received after the Closing by Buyer or any of its Affiliates (including the Company or any of its Subsidiaries) shall be remitted by Buyer to Seller within five Business Days of the receipt of such Tax Refund. Buyer and Seller agree that any Tax Refund paid under this Section 6.1(h) shall be treated as an adjustment to the Final Purchase Price for Tax purposes and shall not take any Tax position inconsistent with such treatment unless otherwise required by applicable Law. In the event that all or any portion of any Tax Refunds previously paid to Seller pursuant to this Section 6.1(h) is subsequently disallowed, reduced, or required to be repaid to a Taxing Authority (including as a result of any audit, examination, or other proceeding), Seller shall, within five Business Days after written notice from Buyer, repay to Buyer an amount equal to the portion of such Tax Refund so disallowed or reduced plus any interest, penalties or additions thereto imposed by the applicable Taxing Authority. Buyer shall be entitled to set off against any amounts otherwise payable to Seller pursuant to Section 6.1 any amounts that are then due and payable (but remain unpaid) by Seller to Buyer or any of its Affiliates pursuant to this Agreement, including Section 5.2(a)(ii).

(i)Post-Closing Change of Control Payments. In the event Buyer makes payment of any Change of Control Payments for which Seller actually reimburses Buyer pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or that otherwise reduces the Purchase Price, Buyer shall pay to Seller the amount of any net cash Tax benefit actually recognized by Buyer in the taxable year in which such Change of Control Payment is taken into account for income Tax purposes, as determined by Buyer in good faith on a “with and without” basis. In the event that all or any portion of any such Tax benefit previously paid to Seller pursuant to this Section 6.1(i) is subsequently disallowed, reduced, or required to be repaid to a Taxing Authority (including as a result of any audit, examination, or other proceeding), Seller shall, within five Business Days after written notice from Buyer, repay to Buyer an amount equal to the portion of such Tax benefit so disallowed or reduced.

(j)Tax Lien Release. From the date of this Agreement until the Closing, Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to fully pay, discharge, satisfy and release each outstanding Tax Lien listed on Schedule 1.1(d), and to deliver to Buyer evidence, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Buyer, of the full payment, discharge, satisfaction and release of each such Tax Lien, including filing confirmations and other customary evidence that such releases have been filed or recorded by the IRS. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller shall be entitled to contest in any Tax Liens as a Seller Contest if, in Seller’s good faith judgment, such Tax Liens, including the underlying Taxes, have been improperly imposed.

6.2 Employees and Benefit Plans.

(a)This Section 6.2 shall be binding upon and shall inure solely to the benefit of each of the Parties to this Agreement, and nothing in this Section 6.2, express or implied, is intended to confer or shall confer upon the employees of the Company and its Subsidiaries who are employed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries immediately following the Closing or any other Person (including for the avoidance of doubt any current or former directors, officers, employees, contractors or consultants of any of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries) any rights or remedies of any nature whatsoever (including any third-party beneficiary rights) under or by reason of Section 6.2. Nothing in this Section 6.2 shall constitute an amendment or modification to any Employee Benefit Plan or any other benefit or compensation plan, policy, program, agreement or arrangement at any time assumed, established, sponsored or maintained by the Company, Buyer or any of their respective Affiliates or shall be construed as prohibiting or limiting the ability of the Company, Buyer or any of their respective Subsidiaries or Affiliates to amend, modify or terminate any plans, programs, policies, arrangements, agreements or understandings. Nothing herein shall be construed as requiring, and neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries shall take any action that would have the effect of requiring, Buyer or its Affiliates to continue any specific benefit or compensation plans, programs, policies, arrangements or agreements or to continue the employment (or any particular term or condition of employment) of any specific Person.

(b)Seller shall cause the Company to pay, or shall cause to be paid, to each employee who is employed by the Company or one of its Subsidiaries immediately prior to the Closing and who participates in an Employee Benefit Plan that provides the opportunity to earn a bonus, commission or other incentive payment in respect of any period of time prior to the Closing for which the applicable measurement period has ended prior to the Closing but for which either

(i) the amount of such bonus, commission or other incentive payment is unpaid as of the Closing, or (ii) the satisfaction of any performance criteria related to such measurement period has not been determined as of the Closing, such employee’s bonus, commission or other incentive payment in an amount determined by the Company under the applicable terms of such Employee Benefit Plan as of immediately prior to the Closing.

Prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall take all actions necessary to cause the Non-Puerto Rico 401(k) Plan to fully vest, effective as of the Closing Date, the unvested account balances of the employees of the Company and its Subsidiaries.

6.3 Restrictive Covenants.

(a)Non-Solicit. As an inducement for Buyer to enter into this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, Seller Guarantor hereby covenants and agrees that during the period beginning on the date of this Agreement and ending on the second anniversary of the Closing Date, Seller Guarantor shall not (and shall cause its Affiliates not to), directly or indirectly, (i) hire any officer or employee or solicit or induce or attempt to solicit or induce any officer or employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to leave the employ of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, (ii) induce or attempt to induce any material customer, supplier, licensee, independent contractor or other material business relation of the Business to cease doing business with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or knowingly interfere with the relationship between the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and any material customer, supplier, vendor, licensee, independent contractor or other material business relation of the Business (including by inducing or attempting to induce any such person or entity to reduce the amount of business it does with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries). Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the foregoing shall not prevent Seller Guarantor or its Affiliates from (A) undertaking general solicitations of employment not specifically targeted at any of the foregoing employees, (B) hiring any of the foregoing employees six months following termination of employment of any such employee by Buyer, the Company or any of their Subsidiaries or Affiliates, so long as such termination is not the result of a breach of this Section 6.3(a), or (C) conducting their other business activities, provided, that such activities do not knowingly and intentionally violate this Section 6.3(a).

(b)Seller Guarantor acknowledges that the restrictions contained in this Section 6.3 are reasonable and necessary to protect the legitimate interests of the Company and its Subsidiaries and constitute a material inducement to Buyer to enter into this Agreement and consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. In the event that any covenant contained in this Section 6.3 should ever be adjudicated to exceed the time or other limitations permitted by applicable Law in any jurisdiction, then any court is expressly empowered to reform such covenant, and such covenant shall be deemed reformed, in such jurisdiction to the maximum

time or other limitations permitted by applicable Law. Each covenant contained in this Section 6.3 and each provision hereof is a severable and distinct covenant and provision. The invalidity or unenforceability of any such covenant or provision as written shall not invalidate or render unenforceable the remaining covenants or provisions hereof, and any such invalidity or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such covenant or provision in any other jurisdiction.

6.4 Confidentiality. From and after the Closing, Seller Guarantor shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, hold, and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause its representatives to hold, in confidence and not disclose to any Person any and all information, whether written or oral, to the extent relating to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, including any information provided to Seller Guarantor or any of its Affiliates or representatives pursuant to this Agreement after the Closing, except to the extent that such information (a) is generally available to or known by the public (other than through disclosure by Seller Guarantor, any of its Affiliates or its representatives in violation of this Section 6.4); (b) is lawfully acquired by Seller Guarantor, any of its Affiliates or its representatives after the Closing from a source which is not prohibited from disclosing such information by a legal, contractual or fiduciary obligation; (c) is independently derived by Seller Guarantor or any of its Affiliates after the Closing without reference to or use of information subject to the confidentiality obligations of this Section 6.4; and (d) is required to be disclosed by Law, and in the case of this subclause (d), Seller Guarantor or its applicable Affiliate shall (i) disclose only that portion of such information which Seller Guarantor or its applicable Affiliate is advised by its counsel is legally required to be disclosed, and (ii) cooperate with Buyer (at its expense) to obtain a protective order or other confidential treatment with respect to such information.

6.6 Company Name and Marks. Seller Guarantor hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Company and its Subsidiaries own all right, title and interest in and to the Company Name and Marks and that any and all rights of Seller Guarantor and each of its Affiliates (other than the Company and its Subsidiaries) to use the Company Name and Marks shall terminate as of the Closing and shall immediately revert to the Company and its Subsidiaries, along with any and all goodwill associated therewith.

6.9 Tail Insurance. Prior to the Closing, the Company shall obtain irrevocable and fully paid “tail” insurance policies with respect to directors and officers liability, pollution,

EPL and fiduciary liability with respect to matters existing or occurring at or prior to the Closing Date for the period from the Closing Date and ending six years from the Closing Date, subject to limits and coverage that are reasonably available for companies of comparable size and scope.

applicable Law; provided that Buyer and Seller Guarantor promptly shall determine in good faith and incorporate, with respect to the foregoing subsection (ii), the language necessary to satisfy such applicable Law and, with respect to the foregoing subsection (i), the language necessary to satisfy such [***]. Seller may, without Buyer’s prior written consent, but with reasonable advance notice to Buyer, make any amendment, modification or supplement that is necessary to correct a scrivener’s or drafting error, or required in compliance with the foregoing sentence, or determined on the advice of counsel to be required by applicable Law. In each case in determining whether to grant its consent, Buyer shall take into account that Seller Guarantor is providing the indemnification set forth in Section 5.2 with respect to the Restructuring (including the level of credit support therefor).

(d)Seller Guarantor shall promptly, and in no event later than two Business Days following its execution or filing pursuant to this Section 6.18, furnish Buyer with copies of all executed Restructuring Documents and any amendments, modifications, supplements or waivers thereto, together with evidence reasonably satisfactory to Buyer that each such document has been duly executed, delivered, filed or otherwise made effective in accordance with its terms and applicable Law.

Buyer shall not be entitled to assert as a basis for refusing to consummate the Closing any failure of the Restructuring to be completed to the extent such failure results primarily from Buyer’s breach of this Section 6.18 or its unreasonable withholding, conditioning or delaying of any consent, approval or cooperation required under this Section 6.18.

6.19 Data Room Copies. Within five Business Days following the date of this Agreement, Seller shall cause to be delivered to Buyer, four electronic copies of the Data Room as in effect as of 12:01 a.m., Eastern Time, on the date of this Agreement.

(b)From and after the Closing until the earlier of (i) the date that is 90 days following the Closing and (ii) the date on which all Seller Credit Support (other than the [***] Bond) has been replaced and Seller and its applicable Affiliates have received unconditional written releases from all obligations and contingent liabilities thereunder, Seller shall not, and shall cause its applicable Affiliates not to, cancel, amend, modify or permit the lapse of any Seller Credit Support without Buyer’s prior written consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Seller shall reasonably cooperate, at Buyer’s sole cost and expense, with Buyer’s efforts to replace the applicable Seller Credit Support, including by providing information and executing customary instruments reasonably requested by the applicable beneficiary or replacement credit support provider; provided, that neither Seller nor any of its Affiliates shall be required to incur any liability, extend any credit, provide any collateral or execute any new guarantee or reimbursement agreement, amend any existing facility or otherwise take any action that could reasonably be expected to increase its obligations.

(c)The obligations set forth in this Section 6.20 shall continue for the period described in Section 6.20(b) until every item of Seller Credit Support (other than the [***] Bond) has been terminated, cancelled or replaced and Seller and its applicable Affiliates have received unconditional written releases from all obligations and contingent liabilities thereunder.

(d)Buyer shall reimburse Seller within five Business Days for any amounts drawn under, paid pursuant to, or otherwise incurred in connection with the Seller Credit Support (other than the [***] Bond), together with reasonable and documented related costs and expenses.

(e)If Buyer fails to replace any Seller Credit Support (other than the [***] Bond) by the applicable deadline set forth in subsection (a) above, in addition to, and not in replacement of, any other remedy available to it, Seller may require Buyer, within five Business Days following written request therefor, to provide cash collateral, a replacement letter of credit issued by a nationally recognized financial institution, or other security reasonably satisfactory to Seller, in an amount equal to 100% of the maximum exposure under the applicable Seller Credit Support.

(g)Until such time as the –[***] Litigation is fully and finally adjudicated, all amounts owing with respect thereto have been paid by the party owing such amounts, and Seller’s indemnification obligation under Section 5.2(a)(viii) have been fully satisfied (or are no longer applicable due to final and non-appealable adjudication of the –[***] Litigation in favor of the Company or its applicable Subsidiary), Seller shall maintain in place (and supplement as may be required by any applicable third party or Government Entity) the [***] Bond.

6.21 Post-Closing Misdirected Payments.

(a)Following the Closing, if either Party or any of its Affiliates receives any cash, checks, wire transfers, refunds, credits, rebates or other funds that are the property of, or otherwise rightfully belong to, the other Party or any of its Affiliates under this Agreement or as a result of the transactions effected hereby, such receiving Party shall promptly (and in any event within ten Business Days after becoming aware thereof) remit or cause to be remitted such amounts to the Party entitled thereto. Pending such remittance, the receiving Party shall hold such amounts for the benefit of the entitled Party and shall not exercise dominion or control over such amounts except as reasonably necessary to effect the prompt transfer thereof.

(b)Following the Closing, if either Party or any of its Affiliates inadvertently pays any invoice, charge or other amount that is the responsibility of the other Party or any of its Affiliates solely as a result of administrative delay, transition of accounts, automatic payment arrangements, billing practices, delayed transfer of vendor accounts or other similar transition-related circumstances arising from the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including utilities, property taxes, telecommunications services, insurance premiums, maintenance contracts and other recurring operating expenses), the paying Party shall promptly notify the other Party and provide reasonable supporting documentation. The Party responsible for such obligation shall promptly reimburse the paying Party for the amount so paid, and in any event within ten Business Days after receipt of such notice and supporting documentation.

(c)Without limiting the foregoing, nothing in this Section 6.21 shall (i) authorize either Party to knowingly or deliberately satisfy, prepay or assume any obligation of the other Party, (ii) require reimbursement for any payment knowingly or deliberately made on behalf of the other Party or their Affiliates, or (iii) alter the allocation of liabilities, obligations or expenses otherwise provided in this Agreement.

(e)Each Party’s obligation to remit amounts or reimburse the other Party pursuant to this Section 6.21 shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be subject to any right of setoff, recoupment, deduction, counterclaim or defense of any kind, whether arising under this Agreement, any Transaction Document or otherwise. Any claim that a Party may have against the other Party shall be asserted separately in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and shall not delay or reduce any payment required under this Section 6.21.

6.22 Certain Retained Leases; Post-Closing Cooperation and Cost Allocation.

(a)Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement, including Exhibit B, if any Lease intended to be assigned to LeaseCo set forth on Schedule 6.22(a) (which schedule may be

supplemented by Seller following the date hereof and prior to the Closing Date to add no more than ten additional Leases) cannot be assigned as of the Closing (each, a “Retained Lease”) because a required landlord consent has not been obtained, such assignment would violate applicable Law or the applicable Lease, or Buyer and Seller Guarantor mutually determine that assignment should occur after Closing, such Retained Lease shall remain in the name of the Company or one of its Subsidiaries until assigned pursuant to this Section 6.22. The failure, in and of itself, to complete any such assignment of a Retained Lease prior to Closing shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement or a failure of any condition to Closing. During the period from the Closing until such Retained Lease is validly and fully assigned to LeaseCo in accordance with this Section 6.22, Buyer, the Company and their respective Subsidiaries, assigns and sublessees shall be solely entitled to occupy and use the premises subject to such Retained Lease consistent with the terms of such Retained Lease.

Seller Guarantor shall cause its applicable Affiliates (including LeaseCo) and Buyer shall cause the Company and its applicable Subsidiaries to, timely execute all landlord forms and provide such financial and operational information reasonably requested by landlords; provided, that neither Seller Guarantor, Buyer, the Company nor any of their respective Subsidiaries shall be required to pay additional consideration (except for any consideration that may be payable in accordance with the applicable Lease, which shall be the sole responsibility of Seller Guarantor) or accept materially adverse amendments to the applicable Retained Lease, or take any action that would reasonably be expected to impair Buyer’s, the Company’s or their respective Subsidiaries’ rights under such Retained Lease, Lease corresponding to a Closed Leased Location or this Section 6.22.

(c)Seller Guarantor may use commercially reasonable efforts to identify a subtenant for any Retained Lease; provided, that (i) any proposed subtenant and the terms and conditions of any proposed sublease shall be subject to Buyer’s prior written approval, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and (ii) no sublease shall be executed, delivered or become effective unless and until Buyer has approved the subtenant and the sublease in writing. For the avoidance of doubt, Buyer may consider any factor a reasonable commercial landlord would consider in evaluating a proposed subtenant, including creditworthiness, intended use, operating history and compatibility with the premises underlying the Retained Lease.

(d)From and after the Closing and continuing for the entire remaining term of each Retained Lease (including any renewal and any option term that Seller Guarantor would have been obligated to exercise had the applicable prime lease been assigned to LeaseCo and the underlying premises subleased back to the Company pursuant to an applicable New Sublease Agreement), Seller Guarantor shall pay to Buyer, no later than five Business Days prior to each date on which any installment of rent becomes due and payable, an amount equal to the full amount of such rent and other charges becoming due on such date, other than (i) any amounts that would have been due by the Company or its applicable Subsidiary to LeaseCo under a New Sublease Agreement had the applicable prime lease been assigned to LeaseCo and the underlying premises subleased back to the Company pursuant to an applicable New Sublease Agreement and (ii) the amount of rent received by the Company or its applicable Subsidiary from a tenant under a Retail

Lease for a portion of such Real Property. Seller Guarantor’s obligation to make such payments shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be subject to any setoff, counterclaim, defense or deduction.

(e)Seller Guarantor’s obligation to pay rent and other charges pursuant to clause (d) shall terminate with respect to a Retained Lease solely upon the occurrence of one of the following: (i) such Retained Lease has been validly and fully assigned to LeaseCo or another Affiliate of Seller Guarantor and the Company and its Subsidiaries have been fully and unconditionally released from all obligations and liabilities thereunder; or (ii) a subtenant approved by Buyer in writing in accordance with Section 6.22(c) has assumed occupancy and entered into a sublease with the Company or its applicable Subsidiary to occupy all space in the applicable property that is not utilized for the applicable Repair Shop; provided, that Seller Guarantor’s payment obligations under Section 6.22(d) shall be relieved only for the duration of such sublease and upon the expiration or earlier termination of any such sublease (or any default by the subtenant in its payment obligations thereunder), Seller Guarantor’s payment obligations under Section 6.22(d) shall automatically resume.

(f)Neither Party shall unreasonably withhold, condition or delay its cooperation under this Section 6.22; provided, that nothing in this Section 6.22 shall limit, waive or otherwise modify Buyer’s approval rights with respect to any proposed subtenant or sublease.

6.23 Seller Cooperation. Prior to the Closing, and without limitation to Buyer’s rights pursuant to Section 6.14, Seller Guarantor shall use reasonable best efforts to, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to use reasonable best efforts to, and use its reasonable best efforts to, deliver to Buyer (a) the unaudited consolidated balance sheet, statement of income, and statement of cash flows of the Company, as of June 30, 2026, as promptly as practicable and in no event later than 45 days after the end of such quarter.

6.24 Contractual Matters.

(a)From and after the date of this Agreement and until the Closing, Seller Guarantor shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain and deliver to Buyer, as promptly as practicable and in any event no later than the Closing Date, written consents from the applicable counterparties for any Contract to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party, which contains any restriction, termination right or other adverse term, in connection with a change of control of the Company or its applicable Subsidiaries, solely to the extent Buyer requests in writing for Seller Guarantor to pursue such consent, or otherwise in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby.

(b)With respect to the Material Contract listed as the [***] contract on Schedule 3.10, including any subcontract thereof, including that certain [***], by and between [***] and The Pep Boys – Manny, Moe & Jack, dated [***], the Parties will cooperate from and after the date of this Agreement until the Closing to terminate such Material Contract (and all statements of work and ancillary documents related thereto). If the counterparty requires a fee or other financial concession for such termination, as between Buyer and Seller, Buyer shall be responsible for such fee, subject to Buyer’s reasonable approval. If no such termination is

available or Buyer does not approve a required fee, the applicable Material Contract will remain in place.

(c)Prior to the Closing, the Seller shall ensure that all fees, costs and expenses payable by the Company and its Subsidiaries in connection with Contracts with [***] and its Affiliates are paid in full and any such amounts remaining unpaid as of immediately prior to the Closing shall be accrued as a current liability in the calculation of Net Working Capital.

6.25 No Impairment. For so long as Buyer Guarantor or Seller Guarantor shall have ongoing obligations hereunder or under the terms of any applicable Transaction Document, neither Buyer Guarantor nor Seller Guarantor shall directly or indirectly, take any action, by amendment of such Person’s organizational documents or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of equity interests or securities, or any other voluntary action, with the intention of avoiding or seeking to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed under this Agreement or any other Transaction Documents.

(f)Seller Guarantor hereby waives all presentments, demands for performance, notices of nonperformance or default, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor and notices of acceptance of this Seller Guaranty and of the existence, creation or incurring of new or additional obligations with respect to the Seller Guaranteed Obligations.

Notwithstanding any modification, discharge or extension of the Seller Guaranteed Obligations or any amendment, waiver, modification, stay or cure of Buyer’s rights which may occur in any bankruptcy or reorganization case or proceeding concerning Seller, whether permanent or temporary, and whether or not assented to by Buyer, Seller Guarantor hereby agrees that it shall be obligated hereunder to pay and perform the Seller Guaranteed Obligations and discharge its other obligations in accordance with the terms of the Seller Guaranteed Obligations as set forth in this Seller Guaranty in effect on the date of this Agreement.
