Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On June 11, 2026, United

Community Bank (the “Bank”), a South Carolina state-chartered bank and wholly owned subsidiary of United Community Banks, Inc.

(“United”), entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), by and among the Bank, Navitas

TopCo LLC (“Purchaser”), a Delaware limited liability company, and, solely for the limited purposes set forth therein, United,

providing for the sale of all of the issued and outstanding equity securities of Navitas Credit Corp., a Florida corporation and the Bank’s

equipment lease financing subsidiary (“Finance Company”), and NLFC Reinsurance Corp., a Tennessee corporation and the Bank’s

reinsurance subsidiary (“Reinsurance Company” and together with Finance Company, the “Companies”). United will

guarantee the Bank’s payment and performance obligations under the Purchase Agreement. Each capitalized term used but not defined

herein shall have the meaning ascribed to such term in the Purchase Agreement.

Transaction Consideration

Pursuant to, and subject to

the satisfaction of the conditions in, the Purchase Agreement, Purchaser has agreed, at closing of the Transaction, to acquire all of

the issued and outstanding equity securities of both Companies from the Bank (the “Transaction”), in exchange for an amount

in cash equal to the sum of the Base Purchase Price, plus the Incremental Asset Premium, plus Closing Cash, plus or minus

(as applicable) the Non-Portfolio Net Assets/Liabilities, minus Closing Indebtedness, minus Transaction Expenses. The

Base Purchase Price is equal to (a) the aggregate outstanding principal balance of equipment financings owned by the Finance Company

(the “Owned Portfolio Assets Amount”) at the effective time of the Transaction (the “Effective Time”) (capped

at, and not to exceed, $2,150,000,000), plus (b) a premium represented by the product of 7.346% multiplied by the lesser of

(i) the Owned Portfolio Assets Amount as of the Effective Time and (ii) $1,756,008,306. The Incremental Asset Premium is calculated

to account for Owned Portfolio Assets Amount over and above $1,756,008,306, representing a premium equal to 4% of the excess (subject

to the aggregate $2,150,000,000 portfolio cap) of the amount representing the difference between $1,756,008,306 and the Owned Portfolio

Assets Amount as of the Effective Time (if any and only if such difference is a positive number). The Non-Portfolio Net Assets/Liabilities

will result in an increase to the purchase price if the book value of non-portfolio assets minus book value of non-portfolio liabilities

(in each case, subject to certain adjustments) results in a surplus. A decrease would occur if Non-Portfolio Net Assets/Liabilities amount

results in a deficiency. The Closing Indebtedness Amount will largely be representative of repayment of an intercompany loan between the

Bank and the Finance Company, and such loan is currently estimated to have a principal balance of $1,700,000,000. The Base Purchase Price

is currently estimated to be approximately $1,900,000,000. If the closing of the Transaction occurs, the final purchase price will be

subject to certain customary adjustments post-closing.

Representations and Warranties; Covenants

The Purchase Agreement contains

customary representations and warranties by each of the parties. Each party has also agreed to customary covenants, including covenants

relating to: (i) the conduct of the Companies’ business during the interim period between the execution of the Purchase Agreement

and the Effective Time; (ii) the transfer of certain Excluded Assets to the Bank before the Effective Time; and (iii) the implementation

of certain restructuring transactions relating to Purchaser’s third-party acquisition financing and post-closing funding of the

Companies. The Purchase Agreement also contains indemnification provisions under which the parties have agreed, subject to certain limitations,

to indemnify each other against certain liabilities. To supplement the limited indemnification provided by the Bank, Purchaser has obtained

representation and warranty insurance.

The Purchase Agreement includes

certain post-closing obligations of the parties, including (i) United and the Bank providing transition services to Purchaser; (ii) restrictive

covenants that restrict Purchaser from soliciting employees of United and the Bank; and (iii) restrictive covenants that restrict

United and the Bank from soliciting customers and employees of the Companies or competing with Purchaser in the United States, subject

to certain conditions and exceptions as provided in the Purchase Agreement.

Conditions to the Transaction

The completion of the Transaction

is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of customary conditions, including: (i) the receipt of required regulatory approvals, without

such approvals having resulted in the imposition of a materially burdensome condition, or the expiration or termination of the applicable

waiting periods and any extensions thereof; (ii) the absence of any order, injunction or decree or other legal restraint preventing

the consummation of the Transaction or making the consummation of the Transaction illegal; (iii) subject to certain exceptions, the

accuracy of the representations and warranties of the other party, the majority of which are generally subject to a material adverse effect

qualification; (iv) the performance in all material respects by the other party of its covenants and obligations under the Purchase

Agreement; and (v) the absence of a material adverse effect with respect to the Companies since the execution of the Purchase Agreement.

Consummation of the Transaction by Purchaser is not subject to any financing conditions. The Transaction is expected to close in the third

quarter of 2026.

Termination; Termination Fee

The Purchase Agreement provides

certain termination rights for both the Bank and Purchaser, including if the Transaction is not completed by December 11, 2026, subject

to limitations where the terminating party’s failure to perform its obligations was the primary cause of the failure to close the

Transaction by such date. The Purchase Agreement further provides that Purchaser must pay a termination fee to the Bank of $17,500,000

(“Termination Fee”) in cash in the event that the Bank terminates the Purchase Agreement: (a) due to Purchaser’s

willful breach or failure to perform any of its covenants, agreements or obligations in the Purchase Agreement, or any inaccuracy of any

representation or warranty on the part of Purchaser (i) that would cause the conditions relating to the performance of such covenants,

agreements or obligations or the accuracy of the representations and warranties to not be satisfied, (ii) that has not been waived

by the Bank and (iii) if curable, has not been cured within a specified cure period, in each case, provided that neither United nor

the Bank is in breach of any of its representations, warranties or obligations such that the conditions to Purchaser’s obligation

to close the Transaction have not been satisfied; or (b) if (i) all the mutual closing conditions and all conditions for the

benefit of Purchaser have been satisfied or waived and (ii) Purchaser does not consummate the closing of the Transaction at the time

when required to close pursuant to the Purchase Agreement within five business days following irrevocable notice from the Bank that all

closing conditions for the benefit of the Bank have been satisfied or waived, and each of United and the Bank stands ready, willing and

able to consummate the closing of the Transaction during the entirety of such five business day period. The Termination Fee, if and when

payable, constitutes the sole remedy of the Bank and its affiliates against Purchaser upon termination of the Purchase Agreement, provided,

however, the Bank retains the right to seek specific performance to compel Purchaser to consummate the closing prior to termination, subject

to the terms and conditions of the Purchase Agreement.

Additional Information

The foregoing description

of the Purchase Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Purchase

Agreement, which is attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K (this “Report”) as Exhibit 2.1 and is incorporated

into this Report by reference. The representations, warranties and covenants of each party set forth in the Purchase Agreement have been

made only for purposes of, and were and are solely for the benefit of the parties to, the Purchase Agreement, and may be subject to limitations

agreed upon by the contracting parties, including being qualified by confidential disclosures made for the purposes of allocating contractual

risk between the parties to the Purchase Agreement instead of establishing those matters as facts, and may be subject to standards of

materiality applicable to the contracting parties that differ from those applicable to investors. Accordingly, the representations and

warranties may not describe the actual state of affairs at the date they were made or at any other time, and investors should not rely

on them as statements of fact. In addition, such representations and warranties will not survive consummation of the Transaction,

unless otherwise specified therein, and were made only as of the date of the Purchase Agreement or such other date as is specified in

the Purchase Agreement. Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of the representations and warranties may change after the

date of the Purchase Agreement, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in the parties’ public disclosures.

Accordingly, the Purchase Agreement is included with this Report only to provide investors with information regarding the terms of the

Purchase Agreement, and not to provide investors with any other factual information regarding United, the Bank, the Companies or Purchaser,

their respective affiliates or their respective businesses.

issued a press release announcing its entry into the Purchase Agreement. A copy of United’s press release is attached to this Report

Caution About Forward-Looking Statements

This Report may contain “forward-looking

statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, Section 21E of the Securities

Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are neither statements

of historical or current fact nor are they assurances of future performance and generally can be identified by the use of forward-looking

terminology such as “believes,” “expects,” “may,” “will,” “could,” “should,”

“projects,” “plans,” “goal,” “targets,” “potential,” “estimates,”

“pro forma,” “seeks,” “intends,” “anticipates,” “assumes,” “illustrates,”

“likely,” “predict,” “continue” or similar expressions. Examples of forward-looking statements include,

but are not limited to, statements United makes about (i) the completion and anticipated benefits of the Transaction, (ii) financial

projections and the pro forma financial impact of the Transaction, including impacts on earnings or loss per share, tangible book value

per share, and common equity tier 1 capital, (iii) United’s plans, objectives and strategies, and (iv) the assumptions

that underlie United’s forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are not historical facts and represent management’s

beliefs, based upon information available at the time the statements are made, with regard to the matters addressed; they are not guarantees

of future performance. Actual results may prove to be materially different from the results expressed or implied by the forward-looking

statements. Forward-looking statements are subject to numerous assumptions, risks and uncertainties that change over time and could cause

actual results or financial condition to differ materially from those expressed in or implied by such statements. Because forward-looking

statements relate to the future, they are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions, and changes in circumstances,

many of which are beyond United’s control, and that are difficult to predict as to timing, extent, likelihood and degree of occurrence,

and that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results implied or anticipated by the statements.

Factors that could cause or contribute to such

differences include, but are not limited to, the following:

· the risk that the Transaction may not be completed

on the currently anticipated terms or at all, including due to the failure to satisfy closing conditions or obtain required regulatory

approvals;

· the risk that any financial benefits from the

Transaction may not be realized or may take longer than anticipated to be realized;

· the occurrence of any event, change, or other

circumstances that could give rise to the termination of the Purchase Agreement;

· the effect of potential adverse reactions or

changes to business relationships, including with customers, counterparties, and employees, resulting from the announcement or completion

of the Transaction;

· the possibility that the costs, fees, expenses

and charges related to the Transaction may be unexpected or greater than anticipated;

· diversion of management’s attention from

ongoing business operations;

· the risk of potential litigation or regulatory

action related to the Transaction;

· negative economic and political conditions that

adversely affect the general economy, the banking sector, housing prices, the real estate market, the job market, consumer confidence,

the financial condition of our borrowers and consumer spending habits, which may affect, among other things, the levels of nonperforming

assets, charge-offs and provision expense;

· changes in loan underwriting, credit review or

loss policies associated with economic conditions, examination conclusions or regulatory developments;

· the potential effects of pandemics or public

health conditions on the economic and business environments in which we operate, including the impact of actions taken by governmental

authorities to address these conditions;

· strategic, market, operational, liquidity and

interest rate risks associated with our business;

· potential fluctuations or unanticipated changes

in the interest rate environment, including interest rate changes made by the Federal Reserve, replacement or reform of other interest

rate benchmarks, as well as cash flow reassessments may reduce net interest margin and/or the volumes and values of loans made or held

as well as the value of other financial assets;

· any unanticipated or greater than anticipated

adverse conditions in the national or local economies in which we operate;

· our loan concentration in industries or sectors

that may experience unanticipated or greater than anticipated adverse conditions than other industries or sectors in the national or local

economies in which we operate;

· the risks of expansion into new geographic or

product markets;

· risks with respect to our ability to identify

and complete future mergers or acquisitions as well as our ability to successfully expand and integrate those businesses and operations

that we acquire;

· our ability to attract and retain key employees;

· competition from financial institutions and other

financial service providers including non-bank financial technology providers and our ability to attract customers from other financial

institutions;

· losses due to fraudulent and negligent conduct

of our customers, third-party service providers or employees;

· cybersecurity risks and the vulnerability of

our network and online banking portals, and the systems or parties with whom we contract, to unauthorized access, computer viruses, phishing

schemes, spam attacks, human error, natural disasters, power loss and other security breaches that could adversely affect our business

and financial performance or reputation;

· our reliance on third parties to provide key

components of our business infrastructure and services required to operate our business;

· the risk that we may be required to make substantial

expenditures to keep pace with regulatory initiatives and the rapid technological changes in the financial services market, including

those accelerated by the use of artificial intelligence and machine learning;

· the availability of and access to capital, particularly

if there were to be increased capital requirements or enhanced regulatory supervision;

· legislative, regulatory or accounting changes

that may adversely affect us;

· volatility in the allowance for credit losses

resulting from the current expected credit losses methodology, either alone or as that may be affected by conditions affecting our business;

· adverse results (including judgments, costs,

fines, reputational harm, inability to obtain necessary approvals and/or other negative effects) from current or future legislation, litigation,

regulatory proceedings, examinations, investigations, or similar matters, or developments related thereto;

· government shutdowns, the effect of which could

delay legislative activities or regulatory approval processes that could be harmful to our customers, business activities and strategic

initiatives;

· any matter that would cause us to conclude that

there was impairment of any asset, including intangible assets, such as goodwill;

· limitations on our ability to declare and pay

dividends and other distributions from the Bank to United, which could affect United’s liquidity, including its ability to pay dividends

to shareholders or take other capital actions;

· the potential effects of events beyond our control

that may have a destabilizing effect on financial markets and the economy, such as inflation or recession, terrorist activities, wars

and other foreign conflicts, climate change and weather related events, disruptions in our customers’ supply chains, disruptions

in transportation, essential utility outages or trade disputes and tariffs including threats thereof, either imposed by the U.S. or other

trading partners in retaliation to U.S. tariffs; and

· other risks and uncertainties disclosed in documents

filed or furnished by us with or to the SEC, any of which could cause actual results to differ materially from future results expressed,

implied or otherwise anticipated by such forward-looking statements.

Further information regarding additional factors

that could affect the forward-looking statements can be found in the cautionary language included under the headings “Cautionary

Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” and “Risk Factors” in United’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for

the year ended December 31, 2025 and other documents subsequently filed by United with the SEC, which are available on the SEC website

at www.sec.gov.

Many of these factors are beyond United’s

ability to control or predict. If one or more events related to these or other risks or uncertainties materialize, or if the underlying

assumptions prove to be incorrect, actual results may differ materially from the forward-looking statements. Accordingly, shareholders

and investors should not place any undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements. We do not intend to and, except as required

by law, hereby disclaim any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement contained in this Report, which speaks only as

of the date of its filing with the SEC, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.

United qualifies all forward-looking statements

by these cautionary statements.

PURCHASE AND SALE

Section 2.1            Purchase

and Sale of the Shares. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, at the Closing, Purchaser shall

purchase, acquire and accept from Seller, and Seller shall sell, transfer, convey, and deliver to Purchaser, free and clear of all Encumbrances

(other than restrictions on transfer arising under applicable securities Laws) all of the Company Shares (including all of Seller’s

right, title and interest in and to the Company Shares) (the “Share Purchase”), in consideration for the Purchase

Price.

Section 2.2            Purchase

Price. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, the aggregate purchase price Purchaser shall be

required to pay to Seller shall be an aggregate amount equal to (i) the Base Purchase Price, plus (ii) the Incremental

Asset Premium (if any), plus (iii) the Closing Cash, plus (iv) the Non-Portfolio Net Assets/Liabilities Surplus

(if any), minus (v) the Closing Indebtedness (if any), minus (vi) the Non-Portfolio Net Assets/Liabilities Deficiency

(if any), and minus (vii) the Transaction Expenses, in each case of clauses (i) through (vii), as such amounts shall

be adjusted pursuant to Section 2.3(a) (prior to Closing) and Section 2.3(d) (following Closing) (as

adjusted, the “Purchase Price”).

Section 2.3            Closing

Date Payment; Purchase Price Adjustment.

(a)           Initial

Closing Statement. On the fifth (5th) Business Day prior to the anticipated Closing Date, Seller shall prepare (or cause to be prepared)

and deliver to Purchaser a written statement (as shall be updated for current information as of two (2) Business Days immediately

preceding the Closing Date, and as otherwise may be updated prior to the Effective Time pursuant to Section 2.3(b), the “Initial

Closing Statement”) of the Companies setting forth (i) an estimated pro forma (after taking into account the Restructuring

Transactions) balance sheet of each Company as of the anticipated Effective Time as presented in a format consistent with the Reference

Balance Sheet (including, for the avoidance of doubt, all general ledger reference codes used in the calculation of the Owned Portfolio

Assets Amount), (ii) the Closing Loan Tape prepared in a manner consistent with the Reference Loan Tape (including, for the avoidance

of doubt, a reconciliation tab with active links to the loan-level data file) and Section 7.20(b), and (iii) Seller’s

good faith estimates of the following, each set forth in reasonable detail and estimated to be as of the Effective Time:

(i)            Base

Purchase Price (the “Estimated Base Purchase Price”);

(ii)           unpaid

Paid-off Indebtedness, if any, as specified in a Payoff Letter delivered by any holders of Paid-off Indebtedness necessary to satisfy

in full as of the Closing all unpaid obligations of the Companies with respect to such unpaid Paid-off Indebtedness;

(iii)          the

Incremental Asset Premium, if any (the “Estimated Incremental Asset Premium”);

(iv)          Closing

Non-Portfolio Net Assets/Liabilities (the “Estimated Non-Portfolio Net Assets/Liabilities”) and any Estimated Non-Portfolio

Net Assets/Liabilities Surplus or Estimated Non-Portfolio Net Assets/Liabilities Deficiency, as the case may be;

(v)           Closing

Indebtedness (the “Estimated Closing Indebtedness”);

(vi)          Closing

Cash (the “Estimated Closing Cash”);

(vii)         Transaction

Expenses (the “Estimated Transaction Expenses”); and

(viii)        the

resulting Closing Date Payment based on the foregoing estimates, together with reasonable back-up information, work papers, schedules

and documents used for the determination of the estimated amounts and any other information as reasonably requested by Purchaser.

(b)           The

Initial Closing Statement (including all estimations, calculations and determinations made therein) shall be made and prepared in good

faith and in accordance with the definitions in this Agreement and the Accounting Principles, and presented in the same manner and format

consistent with the applicable Reference Statement. After the delivery of the Initial Closing Statement and until Closing, subject to

any customary documentation (if any) reasonably requested by the external accountants of the Companies related to access (subject to

any applicable requirements set forth in Section 7.7) to work papers, Purchaser and its accountants and other representatives

shall be permitted (i) reasonable access during normal business hours to review Seller’s, its Affiliates’ and the Companies’

books and records and any work papers that were used in the preparation of the Initial Closing Statement (to the extent pertaining to

the Business) and (ii) to make reasonable inquiries of Seller or any of its Affiliates (in respect of the Business) and the Companies

and their accountants and employees regarding questions concerning or disagreements with the Initial Closing Statement arising in the

course of their review thereof, and Seller and the Companies shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause any such accountants

and employees to cooperate with and respond to such inquiries. The Initial Closing Statement (including all estimations, calculations

and determinations made therein) shall be subject to reasonable review and comment by Purchaser, and Seller shall consider in good faith

revising the Initial Closing Statement to reflect any reasonable comments made by Purchaser (if any) thereon that are consistent with

the Accounting Principles and definitions herein; provided, that Seller’s good faith determination of whether to incorporate

or reject such comments shall in all events control for purposes of determining the Initial Closing Statement.

Date Payment. At the Closing, Purchaser shall pay (or cause to be paid, including causing to be paid by a Company or on behalf of

a Company at its direction, and, for purposes of clarity, without duplication for any payments contemplated by the Transaction Steps):

(i)            to

Seller the amount in cash, calculated as follows (the “Closing Date Payment”): (A) the Estimated Base Purchase

Price, plus (B) the Estimated Incremental Asset Premium (if any), plus (C) the Estimated Closing Cash,

plus (D) the Estimated Non-Portfolio Net Assets/Liabilities Surplus (if any), minus (E) the Estimated Closing

Indebtedness (if any), minus (F) the Estimated Non-Portfolio Net Assets/Liabilities Deficiency (if any), minus (G) the

Estimated Transaction Expenses;

(ii)            to

any holders of Paid-off Indebtedness of the Companies, the amounts required to pay off such Paid-off Indebtedness in full as of the Closing

pursuant to the applicable Payoff Letters; and

(iii)           in

full, on behalf of the Companies, the amount of all Transaction Expenses set forth on Schedule 2.3(c)(iii) by wire transfer

of immediately available funds to the account(s) designated by each Person to whom such Transaction Expenses are to be paid as set

forth in the invoices previously provided by the Companies to Purchaser with respect thereto; provided that any amounts treated

as compensation to a current or former employee of the Finance Company shall be paid to the Finance Company, which shall pay the respective

payee such amount, less applicable withholding Taxes and other Compensatory Tax Obligations, through the Finance Company’s payroll;

provided,

however, in no event shall Purchaser be required to pay, or deliver, any amount at Closing that is greater than as reflected in

the Initial Closing Statement as initially delivered to Purchaser pursuant to Section 2.3(a), notwithstanding any incremental

updates thereto up to Closing.

(d)          Final

Closing Statement; Post-Closing Adjustment.

(i)            As

promptly as practicable, but no later than ninety (90) days following the Closing Date (the “Final Closing Statement Initial

Deadline”), Purchaser shall prepare and deliver to Seller a statement (the “Final Closing Statement”) consisting

of (A) the balance sheet of each of the Companies as of the Closing, as presented in a format consistent with the Reference Balance

Sheet, and (B) a calculation of (1) Base Purchase Price as of the Effective Time, (2) Incremental Asset Premium (if any)

as of the Effective Time, (3) Closing Indebtedness (if any) as of immediately prior to the Closing, (4) Closing Cash as of

the Effective Time, (5) Closing Non-Portfolio Net Assets/Liabilities as of the Effective Time, (6) any Non-Portfolio Net Assets/Liabilities

Deficiency or Non-Portfolio Net Assets/Liabilities Surplus, as the case may be, as of the Effective Time, (7) Transaction Expenses

and (8) the resulting Purchase Price and computation thereof. The Final Closing Statement, and each component thereof, shall be

prepared in good faith and determined in accordance with the definitions in this Agreement and the Accounting Principles and, as applicable,

presented in a format consistent with the applicable Reference Statement. The failure to deliver the Final Closing Statement by the Final

Closing Statement Initial Deadline is solely procedural, and the failure to strictly adhere to such timing is not a material condition

to exercising the rights of Purchaser under this Section 2.3(d), and, further, Seller recognizes that delay may occur if

Seller, its Affiliates or their respective representatives do not provide cooperation in accordance with this Section 2.3(d).

(ii)           In

connection with Purchaser’s preparation of the Final Closing Statement, Seller shall, and shall cause its Representatives (including

its accountants), upon reasonable advance notice and during normal business hours (for purposes of providing reasonable assistance to

Purchaser and its Representatives in connection with the preparation of the Final Closing Statement) to: (A) provide Purchaser and

its Representatives with reasonable access to books, records, reports, workpapers and other similar materials that relate to the Business

and that are in the possession of, or accessible by, Seller or its Affiliates or Representatives; (B) permit Purchaser and its Representatives

to discuss the foregoing with employees of Seller and its Affiliates and Representatives; and (C) cause Seller, its Affiliates’

or Representatives’ employees and accounting advisors to reasonably cooperate with Purchaser’s, the Companies’ and

their respective Representatives’ preparation of the Final Closing Statement; provided, that such access and cooperation

shall be conducted in a manner that does not unreasonably interfere with the normal business operations of Seller or its Affiliates.

(iii)          Following

the delivery of the Final Closing Statement, Seller shall have thirty (30) days (the “Review Period”) to review the

Final Closing Statement and the components thereof. Purchaser shall provide Seller and its accounting advisors and accounting personnel

reasonable access during normal business hours upon reasonable advance notice to Purchaser, the Companies and their respective accounting

advisors and accounting personnel, as applicable, and the records and work papers prepared by Purchaser or Purchaser’s accountants,

in each case, relating to the preparation of the Final Closing Statement or the components thereof; provided, that such access

shall be conducted in a manner that does not unreasonably interfere with the normal business operations of Purchaser, any Company or

any of their respective Affiliates; provided, further, that Purchaser’s and the Companies’ accountants shall

not be obligated to make any work papers available to Seller or its advisors or personnel except in accordance with such accountants’

normal disclosure procedures and then only after Seller (and, if applicable, its applicable Representatives) has signed a customary agreement

relating to such access to work papers in form and substance reasonably acceptable to such accountants.

(iv)          If

Seller disagrees with the Final Closing Statement’s reflection of the calculation of (A) Base Purchase Price, (B) Incremental

Asset Premium (if any), (C) Closing Indebtedness, (D) Closing Cash, (E) Closing Non-Portfolio Net Assets/Liabilities,

(F) any Non-Portfolio Net Assets/Liabilities Deficiency or Non-Portfolio Net Assets/Liabilities Surplus and/or (G) Transaction

Expenses, as the case may be, and (H) the resulting calculation of the Purchase Price, it shall notify Purchaser, on or prior to

the last day of the Review Period, of such disagreement in writing (the “Objection Notice”), which shall specify in

good faith (1) the items in dispute, (2) the rationale for such disagreement, (3) the dollar amounts of any adjustments

that are necessary in Seller’s judgment, and (4) reasonable support for each of the foregoing. Any matters not identified

in the Objection Notice as being in dispute shall be deemed to have been accepted by Seller and shall be conclusive and binding on Seller

and Purchaser upon the expiration of the Review Period. In the event that any such Objection Notice is timely provided, Seller and Purchaser

shall, during the thirty (30) days following such delivery of such Objection Notice (or such longer period as they may mutually agree),

each use good faith efforts to reach an agreement as to any matters identified in such Objection Notice as being in dispute. If Seller

and Purchaser are unable to resolve all such matters identified in the Objection Notice as being in dispute during such thirty (30)-day

period, they shall promptly submit the remaining disputed items (the “Disputed Items”) to the Independent Accountant

for resolution pursuant to Section 2.3(e).

(v)           The

amounts set forth on the Final Closing Statement (and the final determination of the components thereof) shall be deemed finally and

conclusively determined for purposes of this Agreement upon the earliest to occur of (A) the failure of Seller to deliver an Objection

Notice to Purchaser within the Review Period, (B) the mutual written resolution of all disputes pursuant to Section 2.3(d)(iv) by

Purchaser and Seller, and (C) the resolution of all Disputed Items by the Independent Accountant pursuant to Section 2.3(e).

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, for purposes of clarity, prior to the final resolution of the amounts on the Final

Closing Statement (and the final determination of all of the components thereof), all items in the Final Closing Statement that do not

comprise Disputed Items shall be deemed finally and conclusively determined for purposes of this Agreement upon the delivery of the Objection

Notice.

(e)           Adjustment

Dispute Resolution. If Seller and Purchaser are unable to reach agreement concerning the Final Closing Statement pursuant to Section 2.3(d)(iv),

they shall (i) jointly engage the Independent Accountant to conduct a special review of the Disputed Items that remain unresolved,

(ii) submit such Disputed Items to the Independent Accountant for resolution pursuant to this Section 2.3(e),

(iii) instruct the Independent Accountant to conduct a special review of the Disputed Items for the purpose of final determination

of the amounts set forth on the Final Closing Statement in accordance with the requirements set forth in this Section 2.3(e),

and (iv) enter into a customary engagement letter with the Independent Accountant at such time upon terms as reasonably agreed upon

between Purchaser and Seller. As promptly as practicable following the Independent Accountant’s engagement, Purchaser and Seller

shall each reasonably promptly prepare and submit a written presentation to the Independent Accountant with respect to any such Disputed

Items, and, following the delivery of such presentations, each of Purchaser and Seller shall promptly provide their assertions regarding

the Disputed Items in writing to the other party contemporaneously with such party’s submission to the Independent Accountant.

No party hereto shall have any ex parte communication with the Independent Accountant in its capacity as such. Purchaser and its

Representatives, on the one hand, and Seller and its Representatives, on the other hand, shall not disclose to the Independent Accountant

any settlement discussions (or the contents thereof) between Purchaser and Seller without the prior written consent of the other. The

Independent Accountant shall be instructed to render its determination with respect to such Disputed Items as soon as reasonably practicable

(which the parties hereto agree each shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Independent Accountant to render its determination

not later than forty-five (45) days after initial submission of the written presentation of the Disputed Items from the parties to the

Independent Accountant) in a written report setting forth the Independent Accountant’s calculation of the Disputed Items (which

calculation shall be within the range of dispute in respect of each Disputed Item between the relevant amounts set forth on the Final

Closing Statement and the Objection Notice). In making such determination and calculations, the Independent Accountant shall be directed

to (A) consider only the Disputed Items based solely on written submissions by Purchaser and Seller in accordance with this Section 2.3(e) applying

the definitions and provisions of this Agreement and the methodologies set forth in the Accounting Principles, (B) serve as an expert

in accounting, and not an arbitrator, (C) make its determination only on the Disputed Items, (D) not conduct an independent

review or investigation and (E) not render a decision in excess of the higher, nor less than the lower, of the amounts advocated

in the Final Closing Statement and the Objection Notice with respect to such disputed line item. The parties agree that the procedures

set forth in this Section 2.3(e) for resolving disputes with respect to the Final Closing Statement shall be the sole

and exclusive method for resolving any such disputes and the determinations rendered in the substance of the report of the Independent

Accountant and shall be final and binding upon Seller and Purchaser (and not subject to review or appeal), absent a showing of manifest

error or fraud; provided, that this provision shall not prohibit Purchaser or Seller from instituting litigation to enforce any

final determination of the Final Closing Statement (or any component thereof) by the Independent Accountant pursuant to this Section 2.3(e),

to compel any party to submit any books, records and other information (including work papers) to the Independent Accountant pursuant

to and in accordance with the terms hereof, in any court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction in accordance with Section 11.2,

or to seek recovery pursuant to Section 10.4. Disputes regarding a legal interpretation of this Agreement shall be resolved

pursuant to Section 11.2. It is the intent of the parties hereto to have any final determination of the Final Closing Statement

(and components thereof) by the Independent Accountant proceed in an expeditious manner; provided, that any deadline or time period

contained in this Section 2.3(e) may be extended or modified by the written agreement of Purchaser and Seller, and the

parties agree that the failure of the Independent Accountant to strictly conform to any deadline or time period contained herein shall

not be a basis for seeking or to overturn any determination rendered by the Independent Accountant which otherwise conforms to the terms

of Section 2.3(e). Purchaser, on the one hand, and Seller, on the other hand, shall each pay their own fees and expenses

in respect of the activities contemplated under this Section 2.3(e). The fees, costs and expenses of the Independent Accountant

shall be allocated to and borne by Purchaser and Seller based on the inverse of the percentage that the Independent Accountant’s

determination (before such allocation) bears to the total amount of all items in dispute as originally submitted to the Independent Accountant.

For example, should the items in dispute total in amount to one thousand dollars ($1,000) and the Independent Accountant awards six hundred

dollars ($600) in favor of Seller’s position, sixty percent (60%) of the costs of its review would be borne by Purchaser and forty

percent (40%) of the costs would be borne by Seller. The parties hereto shall make available to the Independent Accountant (if applicable)

such books, records and other information (including work papers) that the Independent Accountant may reasonably request in order to

review the Final Closing Statement and the Objection Notice.

(f)            Payment

Upon Final Determination of Adjustments.

(i)            If

(A) the sum of (1) the Base Purchase Price, plus (2) the Incremental Asset Premium (if any) plus (3) the

Non-Portfolio Net Assets/Liabilities Surplus (if any), plus (4) the Closing Cash, minus (5) the Closing Indebtedness,

minus (6) the Non-Portfolio Net Assets/Liabilities Deficiency (if any), minus (7) the Transaction Expenses, in

each case as finally determined in accordance with this Section 2.3, represents an aggregate amount that is less than (B) the

sum of (1) the Estimated Base Purchase Price, plus (2) the Estimated Incremental Asset Premium (if any), plus

(3) the Estimated Non-Portfolio Net Assets/Liabilities Surplus, plus (4) the Estimated Closing Cash, minus (5) the

Estimated Closing Indebtedness, minus (6) the Estimated Non-Portfolio Net Assets/Liabilities Deficiency, minus (7) the

Estimated Transaction Expenses, then, no later than five (5) Business Days after the Purchase Price is finally determined in accordance

with this Section 2.3, Seller shall pay to Purchaser an amount equal to the difference between subclauses (A) and (B) above

(expressed as a positive number) by delivery of immediately available funds in accordance with payment instructions provided in writing

by Purchaser to Seller.

(ii)           If

(A) the sum of (1) the Base Purchase Price, plus (2) the Incremental Asset Premium (if any) plus (3) the

Non-Portfolio Net Assets/Liabilities Surplus (if any), plus (4) the Closing Cash, minus (5) the Closing Indebtedness,

minus (6) the Non-Portfolio Net Assets/Liabilities Deficiency (if any), minus (7) the Transaction Expenses, in

each case as finally determined in accordance with this Section 2.3, represents an amount that is greater than (B) the

sum of (1) the Estimated Base Purchase Price, plus (2) the Estimated Incremental Asset Premium (if any), plus

(3) the Estimated Non-Portfolio Net Assets/Liabilities Surplus, plus (4) the Estimated Closing Cash, minus (5) the

Estimated Closing Indebtedness, minus (6) the Estimated Non-Portfolio Net Assets/Liabilities Deficiency, minus (7) the

Estimated Transaction Expenses, then, no later than twelve (12) Business Days after the Purchase Price is finally determined in accordance

with this Section 2.3, Purchaser shall pay to Seller an amount equal to the difference between subclauses (A) and (B) above

by delivery of immediately available funds in accordance with payment instructions provided in writing by Seller to Purchaser.

(iii)          Any

payments made to any party pursuant to this Section 2.3(f) shall constitute an adjustment of the Purchase Price for

Tax purposes and shall be treated as such by Purchaser and Seller on their Tax Returns to the greatest extent permitted by the applicable

Law.

Section 2.4            Closing.

(a)           The

closing of the Share Purchase and consummation of the Transactions (the “Closing”) shall take place remotely and through

the mutual exchange via email of executed copies of documents (including in “portable document format” (.pdf) form or by

any other electronic means intended to preserve the original graphic and pictorial appearance of a document), at 9:00 a.m. Eastern

time following the twelfth (12th) Business Day after the satisfaction or waiver (by the party entitled to such waiver and subject

to applicable Law) of the latest to occur of the conditions set forth in Article VIII (other than those conditions that by

their nature only can be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver (by the party entitled to such waiver and

subject to applicable Law) of those conditions at such time), unless another date, time or place is agreed to in writing by the parties

hereto; provided, that the Closing shall not occur prior to August 3, 2026. The date on which the Closing occurs is referred

to in this Agreement as the “Closing Date”.

(b)            Effective

Time. The Closing shall be deemed effective as of 12:01 A.M., Eastern time on the Closing Date or at such other time as Seller

and Purchaser shall agree to in writing (such time is referred to as the “Effective Time”); provided, however,

or Contract. All premiums due and payable under such policies have been paid, and there are no defaults under any such policy by the

since the Lookback Date has been, adequately covered against risks normally insured against by Persons carrying on the same kind of business

(subject to customary deductibles and policy limits). To the extent insurance is required on Business Equipment, such Business Equipment

is insured in accordance with the terms of the applicable Equipment Financing and in amounts and against such risks as are customary

of any such insurance coverage that has not been replaced. All insurance claims data provided by Seller or its Affiliates to Purchaser

and, to the Knowledge of the Reinsurance Company, no material deficiencies have been asserted by any such Governmental Entities that

to any pending (or, to the Knowledge of the Reinsurance Company, threatened) financial or market conduct examination by the Tennessee

Insurance Division or any other Governmental Entity.

(d)            Except

as required by the insurance Laws of general applicability and the Reinsurance Company Permits, there are no written agreements, memoranda

of understanding, commitment letters or similar undertakings binding on the Reinsurance Company, on the one hand, and any Governmental

Entity, on the other hand, or any orders or directives by, or supervisory letters or cease-and-desist orders from, any Governmental Entity,

nor has the Reinsurance Company adopted any board resolution at the request of any Governmental Entity, in each case specifically with

respect to the Reinsurance Company, which restricts materially the conduct of the business of the Reinsurance Company or in any manner

related to its capital adequacy, credit or risk management policies or management.

insurance policy reserves of the Reinsurance Company for claims, losses (including incurred but not reported losses), loss adjustment

Section 5.16          Transaction

license, or have the right to use (including in respect of Intellectual Property, directly or ancillary to a license or right of a Company),

or have good and marketable title to (or a valid leasehold interest in or license to) all of the assets (whether tangible or intangible),

Contracts, properties, rights, Intellectual Property (whether owned or licensed) and authorizations, which, together with the services

set forth in Exhibit A of the Transition Services Agreement in respect of any Excluded Shared Assets, will be sufficient to operate

and conduct the Business, in substantially the same manner as the Business and the Reinsurance Company is conducted on the date hereof

by Seller and its Affiliates (including the Companies).

Section 5.18          Title

to Assets. The Reinsurance Company has, and will have at and immediately following the Closing, good and valid title to, or a valid

leasehold interest in, all of the tangible or intangible, property, rights, and assets used, or held for use in, the conduct of the Business

as of the date of this Agreement and as of immediately prior to the Closing, whether real or personal, including all properties and assets

reflected on, the Reinsurance Company Latest Balance Sheet, or acquired since the date thereof (other than assets disposed of in the

ordinary course of business consistent with past practice since the date of the Reinsurance Company Latest Balance Sheet), free and clear

of any and all Encumbrances other than Permitted Encumbrances. All assets and properties owned or leased by the Reinsurance Company or

used in the operation of the Business are (i) in good working order and condition, ordinary wear and tear excepted, and (ii) from

and after the Closing Date, sufficient for the operation of the Business immediately following Closing as conducted as of the date of

this Agreement and as of immediately prior to Closing. The Transactions contemplated herein do not constitute a “bulk sale”

(as such term is described in Article 6 of the UCC in any jurisdiction).

Property. The Reinsurance Company does not own, and has never owned, any Intellectual Property and is not party to any Contracts

under which it receives or grants any license to Intellectual Property.

Section 5.21          Reinsurance

Affiliate Transactions. Except for Pre-Closing Intercompany Assignments, or as otherwise set forth on Section 5.21 of

the Reinsurance Company Disclosure Schedule, none of Seller, any Related Party of Seller (other than the Companies), or any Associated

Person of any of the foregoing (i) is a party to any Contract with the Reinsurance Company or Seller or its Affiliates (solely in

respect to the Business), (ii) has engaged since the Lookback Date in any other material transaction, arrangement or understanding

with the Reinsurance Company or the Business (other than in the case of clauses (i) and (ii) above, in respect of an individual’s

capacity as an officer or director of the Reinsurance Company or any payments made to, and other compensation provided to, officers and

directors (or equivalent) in such capacity in the ordinary course of business), or (iii) has any ownership interest in any assets

of the Business. Section 5.21 of the Reinsurance Company Disclosure Schedule sets forth a complete and accurate list of all

Contracts among any such Person (excluding the Reinsurance Company), on the one hand, and the Reinsurance Company, on the other hand,

including any contract involving any Third Party (other than employment agreements entered into with employees or equity compensation-related

agreements with employees) (each such Contract, a “Reinsurance Company Affiliate Arrangement”).

Section 5.22          CFIUS.

The Reinsurance Company (a) does not produce, design, test, manufacture, fabricate, or develop any critical technologies as that

term is defined in 31 C.F.R. § 800.215; (b) does not perform the functions as set forth in column 2 of appendix A to 31

C.F.R. Part 800 with respect to covered investment critical infrastructure, as that term is defined in 31 C.F.R. § 800.212;

and (c) does not maintain or collect sensitive personal data, and has no demonstrated business objective to do so in the future,

as described in 31 C.F.R. § 800.241, and, therefore, the Reinsurance Company is not a “TID U.S. business” as defined

in 31 C.F.R. § 800.248. The Reinsurance Company does not have a current intention of engaging in such activities in the future.

Section 5.23          Insurance

Policy. Section 5.23 of the Reinsurance Company Disclosure Schedule sets forth a list of all policies or Contracts providing

insurance coverage applicable to the Reinsurance Company or the Business. Each such insurance policy is in full force and effect (including

all amendments, modifications or supplements thereto), and since January 1, 2020, no policy limits of such insurance policies have

been exhausted or materially eroded or reduced, and policies providing substantially similar insurance coverage have been in effect continuously.

Since the Lookback Date, no notice of cancellation or termination, material premium increase, or material alteration of coverage has

been received by the Reinsurance Company or Seller or any of their Affiliates (with respect to the Business) with respect to any such

policy or Contract. All premiums due and payable under such policies have been paid, and there are no defaults under any such policy

by the Reinsurance Company or, to the Knowledge of the Reinsurance Company, the applicable insurer, except for any such failure to pay

or default that is, or would reasonably be expected to become, adverse to the Reinsurance Company or the Business in any material respect.

The Reinsurance Company has not failed to give any notice or present any claims under any such insurance policy in a due and timely fashion,

and no insurer has denied, rejected, questioned or disputed or made any reservation of rights regarding any pending claims. Such policies

and Contracts are of the type and in the amounts customarily carried by Persons conducting a business similar to the Reinsurance Company

or the Business and are, and immediately following Closing will continue to be, sufficient for compliance with all applicable Laws and

Contracts to which the Reinsurance Company is a party or by which it is bound, in each case, in all material respects. The Reinsurance

Company is, and at all times since the Lookback Date has been, adequately covered against risks normally insured against by Persons carrying

on the same kind of business as that carried on by the Reinsurance Company or the Business. The assets of the Reinsurance Company are

insured to full replacement cost value (subject to customary deductibles and policy limits). All insurance claims data provided by Seller

or its Affiliates to Purchaser is accurate and complete in all material respects as of its respective valuation date, and since such

data there have been no material claims presented or material changes in such data. There are no open claims under any insurance policy

with any insurer that is insolvent or the subject of any insolvency, rehabilitation or similar proceeding.

Section 5.24          No

Other Representations or Warranties. The Reinsurance Company acknowledges that (a) except for the representations and warranties

of Purchaser expressly set forth in Article VI, the Transaction Agreements and any certificate delivered hereunder, Purchaser

has not made, and the Reinsurance Company has not relied on, any representation or warranty, express or implied, at law or in equity,

regarding Purchaser and (b) the Reinsurance Company is executing and delivering the Transaction Agreements to which it is a party

and consummating the Transactions subject only to, and in reliance upon, the specific representations and warranties set forth in Article VI

of this Agreement and the other covenants contained herein. Nothing in this Section 5.24 is intended to modify any of the

representations or warranties set forth in Article VI of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary,

nothing in this Agreement shall limit or restrict the ability of Parent, Seller, their Affiliates or Representatives to bring a claim

(whether in contract, tort, equity, law or otherwise) for Fraud.

Article VI

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF PURCHASER

Purchaser hereby represents

and warrants to Seller that, as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date (except to the extent made only as of a specified date,

in which case as of such date):

Section 6.1             Organization

and Good Standing. Purchaser is a limited liability company, duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws

of the State of Delaware. Purchaser has all requisite power and authority to own, lease and operate its assets, rights and properties

and to operate its business as the same are now being owned, leased and operated, except where the failure to have such power and authority

does not, and would not reasonably be expected to, prevent or materially impair or materially delay the ability of Purchaser to consummate

the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and any of the other Transaction Agreements. Purchaser is duly qualified or licensed

to do business as a foreign entity in each jurisdiction in which the nature of its business or its ownership of its properties requires

it to be so qualified or licensed, except where the failure to be so qualified or licensed does not, and would not reasonably be expected

to, prevent or materially impair or materially delay the ability of Purchaser to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement

and any of the other Transaction Agreements to which Purchaser is, or will become, a party.

Section 6.2             Authority;

Execution and Delivery; Enforceability.

(a)            Purchaser

possesses all requisite legal right, limited liability company power and authority to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under

this Agreement and the other Transaction Agreements to which it is or may become a party, and to perform its obligations hereunder and

thereunder and to consummate the transactions contemplated herein and therein. The execution, delivery and performance of Purchaser’s

obligations under this Agreement and the other Transaction Agreements to which it is, or may become, a party and the consummation of

the transactions contemplated herein and therein have been duly and validly authorized by all requisite limited liability company action

on the part of Purchaser, and no other proceedings on the part of Purchaser are necessary to authorize Purchaser’s entry into or

performance of this Agreement and the other Transaction Agreements to which it is or may become a party or consummation of the transactions

contemplated herein and therein.

(b)            This

Agreement has been, and the other Transaction Agreements to which Purchaser is, or may become a party will, upon execution and delivery

be, duly executed and delivered by Purchaser and, assuming due authorization, execution and delivery by each of the other parties hereto

and thereto, constitutes, or will upon such delivery constitute, the legal, valid and binding obligation of Purchaser, enforceable in

accordance with its terms, except as such enforcement may be limited by the Enforceability Exceptions.

Section 6.3             No

Conflicts; Consents.

(a)            Assuming

all Governmental Filings have been obtained or made or the applicable waiting periods have expired, and assuming the accuracy and completeness

of the representations and warranties contained in each of Section 3.4 (No Conflicts; Consents), Section 3.7

(No Foreign Persons), Section 4.4 (No Conflicts; Consents) and Section 4.23 (CFIUS), the execution and delivery

of this Agreement or any of the Transaction Agreements to which Purchaser is, or will become a party, by Purchaser and the consummation

by Purchaser of the transactions herein or therein do not and will not (i) conflict with or result in a violation or breach

of any Law or Governmental Order to which Purchaser is subject, (ii) require the consent, notice or other action of or by any Person

under, or violate, any Contract to which Purchaser is a party, or (iii) conflict with, result in a violation or breach of, or default

under, any provision of the Organizational Documents, each as amended to the date hereof, of Purchaser, which, in the case of clauses

(i) and (ii) above, would reasonably be expected to prevent or materially impair or materially delay the ability of Purchaser

to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and any of the other Transaction Agreements to which Purchaser is, or will

become, a party.

(b)            Assuming

the accuracy and completeness of the representations and warranties contained in each of Section 3.4 and Section 4.4,

no Governmental Filings are required to be obtained or made by Purchaser in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement

and the other Transaction Agreements to which it is or may become a party or the consummation by Purchaser of the Transactions

except (i) the Requisite Regulatory Approvals, (ii) the Governmental Filings set forth in the Finance Company Disclosure Schedule,

(iii) the Governmental Filings set forth in the Seller Disclosure Schedule, (iv) the Governmental Filings set forth in the

Reinsurance Company Disclosure Schedule and (v) such other filings, the failure of which to be obtained would not reasonably be

expected to prevent or materially impair or materially delay the ability of Purchaser to consummate the transactions contemplated by

this Agreement and any of the other Transaction Agreements to which Purchaser is, or will become, a party.

Section 6.4             Proceedings.

There are no, and since the Lookback Date there have been no, (a) investigations or reviews pending, or, to the Knowledge of Purchaser,

threatened by any Governmental Entity, (b) Actions pending (or to the Knowledge of Purchaser, threatened) or (c) any Governmental

Order imposed, which, in the case of clauses (a), (b) or (c), would, if determined adversely to Purchaser, reasonably be expected

to prevent or materially impair or materially delay the ability of Purchaser to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement

or any of the other Transaction Agreements. Purchaser is not subject to any Governmental Order or in breach or violation of any Governmental

Order, in each case, that would reasonably be expected to prevent or materially impair or materially delay the ability of Purchaser to

consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and any of the other Transaction Agreements to which Purchaser is, or will

become, a party.

Section 6.5             Financial

Ability. Assuming (i) the Financing is funded in accordance with the Commitment Letters, (ii) the accuracy of the representations

and warranties set forth in Articles III, IV and V and (iii) the compliance and performance by Seller

and its Affiliates, including the Companies, of their respective covenants and agreements set forth in this Agreement, the aggregate

net proceeds of the Debt Financing and the Equity Financing will be sufficient to enable Purchaser to make payment of the Purchase Price

to Seller and to purchase the Company Shares on the terms and subject to the conditions contemplated by this Agreement, to consummate

the Transactions and to pay all associated costs and expenses required to be paid by Purchaser (the amount required to make such payments,

the “Required Amount”).

Section 6.6             Solvency.

Assuming (x) the satisfaction of the closing conditions in Article VIII, (y) the accuracy of the Closing Loan Tape

in all material respects, and (z) the representations and warranties set forth in Article III, Article IV,

and Article V are true, complete and correct in all material respects, immediately following the consummation of the Closing

and after giving effect to the Transactions, including the payment of the Closing Date Payment as contemplated by Article II

and the payment of all other amounts required to be paid by Purchaser or any of its Affiliates in connection with the Transactions and

all related fees and expenses, each of Purchaser and the Companies (as owned by Purchaser following Closing) will be Solvent. No transfer

of property is being made and no obligation is being incurred in connection with the Transactions with the intent to hinder, delay, or

defraud either present or future creditors of Purchaser or any of its Affiliates, or of the Companies. For the purposes of this Agreement,

the term “Solvent,” when used with respect to any Person, means that, as of any date of determination, (a) the

amount of the “fair saleable value” (determined on a going concern basis) of the assets of such Person will, as of such date,

exceed (i) the value of all “liabilities of such Person, including a reasonable estimate of contingent and other liabilities,”

as of such date, as such quoted terms are generally determined in accordance with applicable Law governing determinations of the insolvency

of debtors, and, without duplication, (ii) the amount that will be required to pay the probable liabilities of such Person with

respect to its existing debts (including contingent and other liabilities) as such debts become absolute and mature, (b) such Person

will not have, as of such date, an unreasonably small amount of capital for the operation of the business and (c) such Person will

be able to pay its debts as they become due. For purposes of this definition, “not have an unreasonably small amount of capital

for the operation of the businesses in which it is engaged or proposed to be engaged” and “able to pay its liabilities, as

of such date, including a reasonable estimate of contingent and other liabilities” mean that such Person will be able to generate

enough cash to meet its obligations as they become due.

Section 6.7             Brokers

and Finders. No agent, broker, investment banker, financial advisor or other Person is or will become entitled to receive any commission,

brokerage, finder’s fee, investment banking, financial advisory or other similar compensation in connection with the consummation

of the Transactions, including the Share Purchase, based upon arrangements made by or on behalf of Purchaser.

Section 6.8             Investigation.

Purchaser has conducted its own independent review and analysis of the business, operations, rights, assets, Contracts, intellectual

property, real estate, technology, liabilities, results of operations, financial condition and prospects of each Company and acknowledges

that it and its Representatives have received access to such books and records, facilities, equipment, Contracts and other information

that it and its Representatives have requested to review and that it and its Representatives have had the opportunity to meet with the

Agreement”), which will continue in full force and effect in accordance with its terms until the Closing; provided,

however, that (i) each of the Equity Financing Sources, Debt Financing Sources and each other Investor of Purchaser shall

be deemed to be permissible “Representatives” of Purchaser under the terms thereof and (ii) in the event of a conflict

between the terms of this Agreement and the Confidentiality Agreement, the terms of this Agreement will control and, for purposes of

clarity, no terms in the Confidentiality Agreement in respect of any disclaimer on liability (or similar provision), warranties, limitations

on liability or freedom to negotiate with other parties will continue to apply.

(b)           From

the date hereof through and following Closing, subject to Section 7.2, Parent and Seller shall, and shall cause their applicable

Affiliates to, and shall instruct their Representatives to, hold in strict confidence and not use, disclose or release, without the prior

written consent of Purchaser, any and all Confidential Information; provided that Parent and Seller may disclose, or may permit

disclosure of, Confidential Information (i) to their Representatives who have a need to know such information and are informed of

their obligation to hold such information confidential to the same extent as is applicable to Parent and Seller and in respect of whose

failure to comply with such obligations, Parent or Seller, as applicable, shall be responsible, or (ii) if Parent or Seller, or

any of their respective Affiliates or Representatives is compelled (whether by deposition, interrogatory, request for documents, subpoena,

civil investigation, demand, order or other legal process) or otherwise required by Law to disclose any such Confidential Information.

In the event that any demand or request for disclosure of Confidential Information is made pursuant to clause (ii) above, Parent

or Seller, as applicable, shall (A) as promptly as practicable notify Purchaser of the existence of such request or demand to the

extent reasonably practicable and legally permissible and, if not otherwise prevented by Law, the disclosure that is expected to be made

in respect thereto so that Purchaser may, at its sole expense, seek a protective order or other appropriate assurance that confidential

treatment will be afforded to the Confidential Information and/or waive compliance with the provisions of this Section 7.3(b),

and (B) if requested by Purchaser, reasonably cooperate with Purchaser (subject to receiving reasonable assurances from Purchaser

of reimbursement for such cooperation) in seeking a protective order or other appropriate assurance that confidential treatment will

be afforded to the Confidential Information in respect to such request or demand. If such a protective order or other remedy or the receipt

of a waiver by Purchaser is not obtained and Parent or Seller, as applicable, or any of their respective Representatives is required

by such Law to disclose any Confidential Information, Parent, Seller or such Representative, as applicable, may disclose only that portion

of the Confidential Information which is required to be disclosed. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary contained

in this Agreement, Parent, Seller, their respective Affiliates, and their respective Representatives shall be permitted to disclose any

Confidential Information, without notice, to their respective auditors (subject to customary confidentiality obligations and solely to

the extent reasonably necessary for audit, accounting or tax purposes) and to any Governmental Entity having or claiming to have authority

to regulate or oversee any aspect of their business (solely to the extent reasonably necessary in connection with the exercise of such

authority or claimed authority and to the extent such audit, exam or review is not targeted at the Business, Purchaser or the Companies).

used in this Agreement, “Confidential Information” shall mean all proprietary, technical, economic, environmental, operational,

financial or other Business information or material, data, reports, interpretations, forecasts and business plans of the Companies and

their businesses, products, services, financial condition, operations, assets, liabilities and/or prospects which is in, or after the

date hereof, comes into, the possession of Parent, Seller, their Affiliates or any of their respective Representatives, including pursuant

to the terms of this Agreement or any other provision of any Transaction Agreement; except the term “Confidential Information”

does not include any information which (i) at the time of disclosure is generally available to and known by the public (other than

as a result of a disclosure by Parent in breach of Section 7.3(b)), (ii) becomes available after the Closing Date to

Parent or any of its Representatives on a non-confidential basis from a source other than Purchaser or its Representatives which, to

the Knowledge of Seller, is not subject to any contractual, legal or fiduciary obligation of confidentiality to Purchaser or (iii) is

independently developed by Parent or any of its Affiliates (other than by the Business prior to the Closing) without use of or reference

to the Confidential Information or Purchaser or any of its Affiliates. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent Parent

from disclosing or using information that is not related to the Business or the Companies.

(d)           Notwithstanding

anything in this Agreement to the contrary (including Section 7.2 and Section 7.3), Parent and Seller shall not, and shall

cause their respective Affiliates and Representatives to not, except as required by applicable Law or Governmental Entity or with Purchaser’s

prior written approval, use the name “Wafra” or the name of any direct or indirect investor (and their respective affiliates)

in any investment fund, investment vehicle or managed account or similar entity affiliated with, or managed or advised by, Wafra or its

affiliates, or any trade name, trademark, trade device, service mark, symbol or any abbreviation, contraction or simulation thereof owned

by any such Person, in each case, in any marketing materials or public statements or to any third parties in connection with the Transactions.

Section 7.4             Notification

of Certain Matters. Seller, on the one hand, and Purchaser, on the other hand, shall promptly notify each other of (a) any notice

or other communication received by such party from any Governmental Entity in connection with the Transactions by or from any Person

alleging that the consent of such Person is or may be required in connection with the Transactions, and (b) any Action commenced

or, to such party’s knowledge, threatened against, relating to or involving or otherwise affecting Parent, such party or any of

its Subsidiaries which, in any such case, relates to the ability of the parties hereto to consummate the transactions contemplated by

this Agreement or any of the Transaction Agreements.

Section 7.5             Intercompany

Agreements.

(a)            Except

for this Agreement, the Transaction Agreements (including Contracts and arrangements required to be entered into in accordance with this

Article VII) and the Contracts set forth on Schedule 7.5(a), Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that, no later than

one (1) Business Day prior to Closing, Seller and each Company shall enter into one or more mutual termination and release agreements

pursuant to which all intercompany arrangements (including guarantees) and Contracts in which Seller or its Affiliates (excluding the

Companies), on the one hand, and any of the Companies, on the other hand, are parties (whether relating to products, services or support

provided to or by such Company). All such mutual termination and release agreements shall be entered into solely on a form reasonably

agreed to by Purchaser in advance, which form shall terminate such Contract or arrangement or otherwise remove such Company from such

Contract or arrangement, and each party to such Contract or arrangement shall not be entitled to any further rights, or be bound by any

further obligations, in respect thereof, except as set forth in this Agreement. Following the consummation of such mutual terminations,

releases or amendments, in no event shall any of the Companies have any continuing Liabilities or obligations to Seller or any of its

Affiliates in respect of such intercompany arrangements or Contracts (whether pursuant to a provision that would ordinarily survive under

the original terms of such arrangement or Contract or otherwise) following Closing. For purposes of clarity, (i) this Section 7.5(a) shall

only apply to intercompany arrangements or Contracts solely between or among Seller or a Retained Entity, on the one hand, and a Company,

on the other hand and (ii) Section 7.28 (not this Section 7.5) is to govern and apply to any Contracts or

arrangements specified therein.

(b)            Except

as set forth on Schedule 7.5(b), no later than one (1) Business Day prior to Closing, Seller shall take, or cause to be taken,

all such actions necessary so that Intercompany Receivables and Intercompany Payables shall have been settled or paid prior to the Effective

Time; provided that, the parties hereby agree to work in good faith to agree upon mutually acceptable procedures for the settlement

or payment of trailing activities. Following the Closing, subject to Section 7.7, Seller shall, and shall cause its Affiliates

to, preserve all books, records and documents pertaining to all Liabilities, Contracts and arrangements discharged, terminated or settled,

as the case may be, pursuant to this Section 7.5 in compliance with all applicable Law and its document retention policies,

and to make the same available after the Closing for inspection and copying by the other party hereto, as applicable, or its Representatives,

during normal business hours and upon reasonable advance notice, for any legitimate business purpose (including for financial reporting,

compliance or Tax purposes).

anything to the contrary contained herein, Seller shall not, and shall not permit its Affiliates (including the Company) to take any

actions contemplated in Section 7.5(a) or Section 7.5(b) in a manner that could reasonably be expected

to result in any adverse tax consequence to the Purchaser, its Affiliates, the Companies or the Business.

Section 7.6            Employees

and Employee Benefits.

(a)           For

a period of one (1) year after the Closing (or, if shorter, during the applicable period of employment with Purchaser or any of

its Subsidiaries following the Closing), Purchaser shall provide, or cause its Subsidiaries to provide to each Company Employee who continues

employment with Purchaser or any of its Subsidiaries following the Closing (each, a “Continuing Employee”), with (i) an

annual base salary or hourly wage rate, as applicable, and an annual target cash bonus opportunity (if any) that, in each case, are no

less favorable than the annual base salary or hourly wage rate, as applicable, and annual target cash bonus opportunity (if any) provided

by the applicable Company or its Affiliates to such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the date hereof, and in the case

of annual target cash bonus opportunities, pursuant to the Benefit Plans set forth on Schedule 7.6(a)(i), and (ii) employee

benefits (excluding, in all cases, retirement, severance or termination arrangements, long-term incentive compensation arrangements,

equity and equity-based incentive arrangements, transaction-based payments, defined benefit pension plans, deferred compensation, retiree

or post-termination welfare benefits, and any change in control, retention, one-time or other similar payments (the “Benefits

Exclusions”)) that are no less favorable in the aggregate than the employee benefits (excluding the Benefits Exclusions) provided

by the applicable Company or its Affiliates to such Continuing Employee immediately prior to the Closing pursuant to the Benefit Plans

set forth on Schedule 7.6(a)(ii); provided, that, Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause Continuing Employees

to be eligible to participate in a defined contribution retirement plan intended to qualify under Section 401(a) of the Code

within ninety (90) days following the Closing Date. Each Continuing Employee will remain eligible to continue to participate in the Benefit

Plans providing health and welfare benefits made available by Seller or its applicable Affiliate until the end of the month during which

Closing occurs.

(b)           Without

limiting the immediately preceding section, Purchaser shall, or shall cause one of its Affiliates to, provide to each Continuing Employee

whose employment is terminated by a Company without cause (as determined by Purchaser or its applicable Affiliate in its reasonable discretion

consistent with past practice) during the one (1)-year period following the Closing Date with severance benefits that are no less favorable

than those provided to such Continuing Employee under the Benefit Plans set forth on Schedule 7.6(b) as in effect upon the

Closing, taking into account each Continuing Employee’s service with Seller and its Affiliates (and any predecessor entities),

as applicable, and, after the Closing, Purchaser and its Affiliates.

respect to any benefit plans sponsored by Purchaser and its Subsidiaries (such plans, the “Purchaser Plans”) in which

any Continuing Employee becomes eligible to participate on or after the Closing, Purchaser or the applicable Subsidiaries, as applicable,

shall use commercially reasonable efforts to (i) waive all preexisting conditions, actively at work requirements, exclusion and

waiting periods with respect to participation and coverage requirements under the Purchaser Plans that are medical plans to the extent

they were inapplicable to, or were satisfied under, Benefit Plans; (ii) for purposes of eligibility, vesting and benefit level,

recognize the service that was credited to each such Continuing Employee under Benefit Plans prior to the Closing, under the Purchaser

Plans (except to the extent it would result in a duplication of benefits), as if such service were with Purchaser and its Subsidiaries

(provided that the service crediting in this clause (ii) shall not apply with respect to any defined benefit plans or

for purposes of qualifying for subsidized early retirement benefits); and (iii) cause any eligible expenses incurred by any such

Continuing Employee and his or her covered dependents under Benefit Plans prior to the Closing to be taken into account for purposes

of satisfying any applicable deductible, co-payment, coinsurance or out-of-pocket requirements under the applicable Purchaser Plans that

are medical plans.

(d)           Nothing

in this Agreement shall confer upon any employee, director or consultant of any Company or any of its Affiliates any right to

continue in the employ or service of Purchaser, any Company, or any Affiliate thereof, or shall interfere with or restrict in any way

the rights of any Company, Purchaser or any Affiliate thereof to discharge or terminate the services of any employee, director or consultant

of any Company or any of its Affiliates at any time for any reason whatsoever, with or without cause. Nothing in this Agreement shall

be deemed to (i) establish, amend, or modify any Benefit Plan, Purchaser Plan or any other benefit or employment plan, program,

agreement or arrangement, or (ii) alter or limit the ability of Purchaser or any of its Affiliates to amend, modify or terminate

any particular Benefit Plan, Purchaser Plan or any other benefit or employment plan, program, agreement or arrangement after the Effective

Time. Without limiting the generality of Section 11.1, nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to or shall

confer upon any Person, including, without limitation, any current or former employee, director, individual independent contractor or

consultant of any Company or any of its Affiliates, any right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this

Agreement.

(e)           Purchaser

or one of its Subsidiaries shall make an offer of employment to any individuals listed on Section 4.14(c)(i) of the

Finance Company Disclosure Schedule whose employment was not transferred to the Finance Company prior to the Closing Date because such

individual was on a leave of absence as of the Closing Date (such individual, a “Leave Employee”), subject to such

Leave Employee returning to active employment within six (6) months following the Closing Date (or such later date as may be required

by applicable Law). Each such Leave Employee who accepts such offer of employment will commence employment with Purchaser or one of its

Subsidiaries on the date such Leave Employee’s is scheduled and permitted to return to work.

Section 7.7             Access

to Information; Records Preservation.

(a)            Prior

to the Closing Date, Purchaser and its Representatives shall receive, and Parent and Seller shall provide such Persons with, reasonable

access to the properties, books, Contracts, commitments, personnel, information technology systems, and records of Seller and its Affiliates

(including the Companies), to the extent relating to the Business or the Companies, as Purchaser reasonably requests upon reasonable

advance written (which may be made via email) notice, including as may be requested in furtherance of Purchaser’s efforts to consummate

the Transactions or in preparation for Purchaser’s future ownership of the Companies. Any such access and examination shall be

conducted under circumstances that do not unreasonably interfere with the normal operations of the Business, and Seller shall cause its

Affiliates (including the Companies) and its and their respective Representatives to reasonably cooperate with Purchaser and its Representatives

in connection with such access and examination, and Purchaser and its Representatives shall cooperate with the Companies and its Representatives

and shall use their reasonable best efforts to minimize any unreasonable disruption to the Business in connection therewith, it being

acknowledged and agreed that no such access or examination shall be permitted to the extent that it would require the Companies to provide

access or disclose information where legal counsel (including in-house counsel) of Seller has advised that such access or disclosure

would reasonably be likely to result in a waiver of any applicable attorney-client privilege or would violate any applicable Law; provided

that, Seller shall make reasonable and appropriate substitute disclosure arrangements to the extent reasonably practicable and legally

permissible in a manner that does not result in the foregoing issue; provided, further, that, in the event that Seller

withholds access or information in reliance on the foregoing issue, Seller shall provide (to the extent reasonably practicable and legally

permissible without waiving or violating the applicable legal privilege or Law) notice to Purchaser that such access or information is

being so withheld. No investigation furnished pursuant to this Section 7.7 or by Purchaser or its Representatives at any

time following the date of this Agreement shall be deemed to modify any representation or warranty made by the Companies herein. Nothing

in this Section 7.7(a) shall give either party hereto, directly or indirectly, the right to control or direct the operations

of the other party prior to the Closing. Prior to the Closing, each party hereto shall exercise, consistent with the terms and conditions

of this Agreement, complete control and supervision over its and its Subsidiaries’ respective operations.

(b)            At

or as soon as reasonably practicable following the Closing, except solely to the extent otherwise expressly permitted and contemplated

by the Transaction Agreements, Seller shall (i) cause all tangible books and records of the Companies and the Business to be located

on the premises of the applicable Company and such tangible books and records shall be transferred to Purchaser by possession of such

premises, (ii) transfer, or cause to be transferred, to Purchaser all original corporate records of the Companies relating to the

legal existence, ownership and corporate governance of the Companies, all Finance Company Permits and Reinsurance Company Permits of

the applicable Company, and (iii) transfer, or cause to be transferred, to Purchaser (or a designee thereof) all other books and

records (including digital records) of the Companies and the Business, in each case, that are not located on the premises of the Companies

or otherwise possessed or controlled by the Companies. Prior to Closing, in accordance with Section 7.29, Seller and Purchaser

shall cooperate in good faith to develop and implement a plan that will result in the delivery or transfer of all other books and records

of the Companies and the Business to Purchaser or the Companies at, or as soon as reasonably practicable following, the Closing.

to the requirements of Section 7.3 and this Section 7.7, Seller shall have the right to retain a copy of any

or all books and records of the Companies (including emails) that are otherwise in the possession or under the control of Seller or any

of its Affiliates relating to the conduct of the Business on or prior to the Closing Date (i) relating to information (including

employment and medical records) regarding the employees of the Companies, (ii) as may be required by any Governmental Entity, including

pursuant to any applicable Law or regulatory request, (iii) as may be deemed appropriate in connection with any Action commenced

or threatened by any Person (including any Governmental Entity), or (iv) as may be necessary for Seller to perform its obligations

pursuant to this Agreement or any Transaction Agreement, in each case subject to restrictions imposed by applicable privacy Laws.

(d)            For

a period of seven (7) years following the Closing, each party hereto shall preserve all pre-Closing Date books and records of the

Companies and the Business possessed or controlled by such Person. During such period, upon any reasonable request from any party hereto

or its authorized Representatives (the “Requesting Party”), the other party or any of its Affiliates holding such

books and records (the “Disclosing Party”) shall (i) provide the Requesting Party reasonable access to such books

and records during normal business hours; provided, that such access shall not unreasonably interfere with the conduct of the

business of the Disclosing Party holding such books and records, and (ii) permit the Requesting Party to make copies of such books

and records, and, in each case, the Disclosing Party shall be reimbursed by the Requesting Party for the Disclosing Party’s reasonable

out-of-pocket expenses. Nothing in this Section 7.7(d) shall require (A) the Disclosing Party to disclose any information

to the Requesting Party if such disclosure would jeopardize any attorney-client privilege, the work product immunity or any other legal

privilege or similar doctrine or contravene any applicable Law, Governmental Order or any fiduciary duty (it being understood that the

Disclosing Party shall (1) cooperate with any requests for, and use their commercially reasonable efforts to obtain, any waivers,

and (2) use their commercially reasonable efforts to make other arrangements (including redacting information or entering into common

interest or joint defense agreements or establishing clean team arrangements), in each case, that would enable otherwise required disclosure

to Seller or its Representatives to occur without so jeopardizing privilege or contravening such applicable Law, Governmental Order or

fiduciary duty or agreement) or (B) Purchaser, Seller or any of their respective Affiliates to disclose their Tax records (except

for Tax records of, or with respect to, the Companies, which shall not be disclosed without the disclosing party’s prior written

consent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed)) or any personnel or related records.

(e)           Such

books and records may be requested under this Section 7.7 for any reasonable business purpose, including to the extent reasonably

required in connection with accounting, litigation, financial reporting, securitization or other financing, federal securities disclosure

or compliance with contractual obligations of the parties to this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the expiration of such

retention period, any and all such books and records may be destroyed by either party hereto in accordance with their respective document

retention policies, if such party sends to the other party written notice of its intent to destroy such books and records, specifying

in reasonable detail the contents of the books and records to be destroyed; such books and records may then be destroyed after the sixtieth

(60th) day following such notice unless the other party hereto notifies such party of its desire to obtain possession of such books and

records, in which event such party shall transfer the books and records to the other party and the other party shall pay all reasonable

out-of-pocket expenses in connection therewith. For purposes of clarity, references to “records” in this Section 7.7

shall include data.

Section 7.8             Efforts;

Regulatory Approvals.

(a)            During

the Interim Period, upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, Parent, Seller and Purchaser shall cooperate with

each other and use (and shall cause their respective Subsidiaries to use) their reasonable best efforts to reasonably promptly take,

or cause to be taken by their respective Subsidiaries, all actions, and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or desirable,

or advisable, under this Agreement and applicable Laws to permit consummation of, and to make effective, as promptly as practicable,

the consummation of the transactions contemplated under this Agreement and the Transaction Agreements. Parent and Seller shall, and shall

cause the Companies and their respective Affiliates to, use reasonable best efforts to maintain the Permits in full force and effect

through Closing and to prepare and submit (as soon as reasonably practicable and in coordination with Purchaser and without limiting

the generality of any other obligation to Purchaser, including the obligation to incorporate Purchaser’s reasonable comments thereto)

all applications, amendments, and change of control filings required under applicable Law (including Financial Regulatory Laws and Reinsurance

Regulatory Laws) arising from the Transactions, and shall keep Purchaser reasonably informed in advance of all material communications

with Governmental Entities regarding the foregoing.

(b)           During

the Interim Period, Parent, Seller and Purchaser shall cooperate with each other and use (and shall cause their respective Subsidiaries

to use) their reasonable best efforts to prepare as promptly as practicable all documentation and to obtain all notices, consents, approvals,

registrations, waivers, confirmations, permits, non-objections and other authorizations of all Governmental Entities required to consummate

the transactions contemplated in this Agreement and in the Transaction Agreements, including, for the avoidance of doubt, those set forth

on Schedule 7.8(b) (all such required notices, consents, approvals, waivers, registrations, confirmations, permits, non-objections

and other authorizations set forth on Schedule 7.8(b), the “Requisite Regulatory Approvals”) and of all third

parties, and shall make all necessary filings in respect of the Requisite Regulatory Approvals as promptly as practicable, but in any

event within twenty (20) Business Days of the execution of this Agreement (and Purchaser shall provide Seller with draft filings in respect

of the Requisite Regulatory Approvals no later than three (3) Business Days prior to such submission deadline for Seller’s

review and comment and Seller shall promptly return any comments to Purchaser (and, in any event, shall be returned to Purchaser within

two (2) Business Days of receipt of Purchaser’s draft filings and no obligation herein to provide Seller with an opportunity

to review and comment shall require Purchaser to fail to satisfy the deadline specified above), and shall make all other necessary filings

in respect of any notices, consents, approvals, registrations, confirmations, waivers, permits, non-objections or other authorizations

of any third parties (including any Governmental Entity) required to consummate the Transactions as promptly as practicable. After the

date hereof, each of Purchaser and Seller shall have the right to review in advance, and to the extent practicable each party hereto

shall consult with the other with respect to, in each case subject to applicable Laws relating to the exchange of information, all nonconfidential,

material written information prior to submission to any third party or any Governmental Entity or third party in connection with the

transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any Transaction Agreement; provided, that, for the avoidance of doubt, each party

hereto shall be permitted to reasonably redact any information as may reasonably be considered proprietary, sensitive or confidential

(including financial projections, business plans, personal information or relating to or containing Confidential Supervisory Information);

provided, further, that Purchaser shall be also permitted to redact or withhold any information that is not directly relevant

to the Business as it pertains to Purchaser or any of its affiliates (the “Out-of-scope Information”); provided,

further, that Purchaser shall exercise such right to redact or withhold Out-of-scope Information reasonably and in good faith.

In exercising the foregoing right, each of Purchaser, Parent, Seller and their respective Subsidiaries shall act reasonably and as promptly

as practicable. Each of Purchaser and Seller agrees that it shall consult with each other with respect to obtaining all material permits,

consents, approvals and authorizations of all third parties and Governmental Entities necessary or advisable to consummate the Transactions

as promptly as practicable, and each of Purchaser and Seller shall keep the other apprised of the status of material matters relating

to the completion of the Transactions, including any material concerns, objections, or proposed conditions raised by any Governmental

Entity regardless of whether such concerns, objections, or conditions rise to the level of a Burdensome Condition. The parties shall

promptly deliver to each other copies of all filings, correspondence and orders to and from all Governmental Entities in connection with

the Transactions, including seeking the Requisite Regulatory Approvals; provided, that each party hereto may redact such information

as may reasonably be considered proprietary, sensitive or confidential (including financial projections, business plans, personal information

or Confidential Supervisory Information and, as it relates to Purchaser, any Out-of-scope Information). Other than in respect of information

subject to privilege, and solely to the extent that any such redacted information provided under this Section 7.8 is necessary

for a party to fulfill its obligations under this Section 7.8 or to otherwise ensure reasonable consistency in the respective

filings of the parties with any Governmental Entity in connection with the Transactions (including with respect to seeking the Requisite

Regulatory Approvals), such information shall be provided in unredacted form to the other parties as “outside counsel only”

which is to be given only to outside counsel of the recipient party hereto, and will not be disclosed by such outside counsel to employees,

officers or directors of the receiving party hereto, unless express written permission is obtained in advance from the source of the

materials or its legal counsel. Parent and Seller shall, and shall cause their applicable Subsidiaries to incorporate any reasonable

comments provided by Purchaser in any material written information or filings prior to the submission thereof to any third party (including

any Governmental Entity).

furtherance of the foregoing, the parties hereto and their respective Affiliates shall take or commit to take any and all actions and

agree to any conditions or restrictions imposed by any Governmental Entity as may be necessary in order to obtain the foregoing Requisite

Regulatory Approvals; provided, however, that notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement that may be to the

contrary, and except as expressly provided for in Section 7.9(c), no party hereto, nor any of their respective Affiliates,

shall be required to take any action, or commit to take any action, or agree to any condition or restriction, make any filing, or disclose

any information, that would, or would reasonably be expected to (i) have a Material Adverse Effect on the business, financial condition,

properties, assets, Liabilities or results of operations of Seller and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or (ii) constitute a

Burdensome Condition. Prior to invoking the Burdensome Condition carve-out set forth in clause (ii) of the preceding sentence with

respect to any Requisite Regulatory Approval (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not include any approvals required under the HSR

Act which are covered in Section 7.9(c)), Purchaser shall use commercially reasonably efforts to (A) notify Seller in

writing of the applicable condition or restriction, (B) coordinate with Seller to negotiate in good faith with the applicable Governmental

Entity for a reasonable period of time (not to exceed fifteen (15) calendar days) to modify, resolve, or eliminate such condition or

restriction or to propose alternative remedies that might satisfy the applicable Governmental Entity without constituting a Burdensome

Condition, and (C) consult with Seller in good faith regarding any such negotiations and consider any alternatives proposed by Seller.

Subject to applicable Law and the instructions of any Governmental Entity, Purchaser shall inform Seller in writing with reasonable detail

if any Governmental Entity with jurisdiction over Purchaser or its Subsidiaries has advised or notified any of Purchaser or its Subsidiaries

of such Governmental Entity’s determination to impose an unreasonable restriction or requirement in connection with or as a result

of the Transactions, which upon compliance therewith would constitute a Burdensome Condition; provided, that, for the avoidance

of doubt, (1) in no event shall any party be obligated to provide any other party with any Confidential Supervisory Information

and (2) Purchaser is not obligated to provide any other party with information that may reasonably be considered proprietary, sensitive

or confidential (including financial projections, business plans and personal information) or any other Out-of-scope Information.

Section 7.9            Antitrust

Filings.

(a)            Without

limiting the obligations of the parties under Section 7.8, if required by the HSR Act and if the appropriate filing pursuant

to the HSR Act has not been filed prior to the date hereof, each party hereto agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to make an

appropriate filing pursuant to the HSR Act with respect to the Transactions within fifteen (15) Business Days after the date hereof and

to supply as promptly as practicable to the appropriate Governmental Entity any additional information and documentary material that

may be requested pursuant to the HSR Act. Each of Parent, Seller and Purchaser will promptly furnish to the other such necessary information

and reasonable assistance as the other may request in connection with its preparation of any filing or submission that is necessary under

the HSR Act. Purchaser shall be solely responsible for the payment of all filing fees required under the HSR Act in connection with the

Transactions.

(b)            Subject

to Section 7.9(c) (and not in expansion thereof), Purchaser shall request early termination of any waiting period under

the HSR Act and exercise its reasonable best efforts to (i) obtain termination or expiration of the waiting period under the HSR

Act, (ii) prevent the entry in any Action brought by a Governmental Entity or any other Person of any Governmental Order that would

prohibit, make unlawful or delay the consummation of the Transactions and (iii) if any such Governmental Order is issued in any

such Action, cause such Governmental Order to be lifted as soon as practicable, but in any event at such time as is necessary to permit

the lawful consummation of the Transactions on or prior to the Outside Date.

anything to the contrary in this Agreement, but subject to the last sentence of this Section 7.9(c), Purchaser agrees to

take, or use its reasonable best efforts to cause to be taken, any and all steps and to make, or cause to be made, any and all undertakings

necessary to avoid or eliminate each and every impediment asserted by any Governmental Entity in connection with obtaining approval under

the HSR Act so as to enable the Closing to occur as promptly as practicable, and in any event, prior to the Outside Date, including using

its reasonable best efforts in (i) agreeing to conditions imposed by any Governmental Entity and proposing, negotiating, committing

to and effecting, by consent decree, hold separate order or otherwise, the sale, divestiture, licensing or disposition of assets or businesses

of Purchaser, any of Purchaser’s Affiliates, or the Companies, (ii) accepting any operational or behavioral restrictions,

or otherwise proposing, negotiating, taking or committing to take actions that limit any of Purchaser’s or its Affiliates’

(including, after the Closing, the Companies’) freedom of action with respect to, or its ability to retain or freely operate, any

of the assets, properties, licenses, rights, operations or businesses of Purchaser, any of Purchaser’s Affiliates or any of the

Companies or (iii) seeking to avoid the initiation by any Governmental Entity of, and vigorously defending, any lawsuits or other

legal proceedings, whether regulatory, judicial, administrative or other, to which it is a party challenging or affecting this Agreement,

or seeking to prohibit or delay the consummation of the Transactions or rescind, vacate or otherwise challenge any Governmental Order

granted. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement (including this Section 7.9) that may be to the contrary,

none of Purchaser, its affiliates and/or any other Purchaser Related Party shall be required to take any action, or commit to take any

action, or agree to any condition or restriction, make any filing, or disclose any information, that would reasonably be expected to

constitute a Burdensome Condition.

(d)           Without

limiting the generality of the foregoing in Section 7.8 and this Section 7.9, all analyses, appearances, meetings,

discussions, presentations, memoranda, briefs, filings, arguments, and proposals made by or on behalf of either party before any Governmental

Entity or the staff or regulators of any Governmental Entity, in connection with the Transactions (but, for the avoidance of doubt, not

including: (i) any interactions between Seller and any Company with Governmental Entities in the ordinary course of business unrelated

to this Agreement and the Transaction Agreements; or (ii) any disclosure that is not permitted by Law) shall be disclosed to the

other party hereunder in advance of any filing, submission or attendance, it being the intent that the parties will consult and cooperate

with one another, and consider in good faith the views of one another, in connection with any such analyses, appearances, meetings, discussions,

presentations, memoranda, briefs, filings, arguments, and proposals. Each party shall give notice to the other parties with respect to

any meeting, discussion, appearance or contact with any Governmental Entity or the staff or regulators of any Governmental Entity, with

such notice being sufficient to provide the other parties with the opportunity to attend and participate in such meeting, discussion,

appearance or contact. Each party hereto will reasonably cooperate in good faith with each other party hereto in responding to any inquiry

from a Governmental Entity (A) permitting the other parties to review in advance any proposed communication by such party to any

Governmental Entity relating to this Agreement or any Transaction Agreement, (B) promptly notifying the other parties hereto of

any communication it or any of its Affiliates receives from any Governmental Entity relating to such matters and (C) providing to

the other parties hereto copies of all correspondence, filings or communications between it (or its advisors) and any such Governmental

Entities relating to this Agreement or any other Transaction Agreement. No party hereto shall agree to participate in any meeting with

any Governmental Entity (including via telephone, conference call or videoconference) or have any substantive contact with any Governmental

Entity in respect of any filings, investigation or other inquiry contemplated by Section 7.8 or this Section 7.9,

in each case, that would reasonably be expected to be related to the Agreement or any Transaction Agreement in any material respect,

unless they have used commercially reasonable best efforts to consult with the other parties hereto. Each of Parent and Seller, on the

one hand, and Purchaser, on the other hand, shall consult in good faith with the other on the strategy to be pursued for obtaining any

consents, approvals, registrations, waivers, confirmations, permits, non-objections and other authorizations relating to this Agreement

or the Transaction Agreements.

(e)            Purchaser

shall not, and shall cause its Subsidiaries not to, acquire or agree to acquire equity or assets of, or other interests in, or merge

or consolidate with (or agree to merge or consolidate with), any corporation, partnership, association or other business organization,

or any business unit, division, subsidiary or other portion thereof, if such action would reasonably be expected to (i) materially

increase the risk of any Governmental Entity seeking or entering a Governmental Order prohibiting the consummation of the Transactions,

(ii) materially increase the risk of not being able to remove any such Governmental Order on appeal or otherwise, (iii) materially

delay the satisfaction of the conditions contained in Article VIII or (iv) otherwise prevent or delay the consummation

of the Transactions.

and after Closing, Purchaser agrees that all rights to indemnification and advancement of expenses in favor of each present and former

director and officer of each Company (in each case, when acting in such capacity) (collectively, the “D&O Indemnified Parties”)

pursuant to the Organizational Documents of the Companies as in effect on the date of this Agreement (and solely to the extent disclosed

to Purchaser prior to the date hereof) will be honored by the Companies, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, for at least

six (6) years following Closing, including (but solely to the extent included in such Organizational Documents), in respect of the

rights and obligations contained therein pertaining to the indemnification for any costs or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’

fees), judgments, fines, losses, damages or liabilities incurred in connection with any threatened or actual claim, action, suit, proceeding

or investigation, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, whether arising before or after the Closing, arising in whole

or in part out of, or pertaining to, the fact that such person is or was a director or officer of any Company or is or was serving at

the request of any Company as a director or officer of another person and pertaining to matters, acts or omissions existing or occurring

at or prior to the Closing (including matters, acts or omissions occurring in connection with the approval of the Agreement and the Transactions),

the advance expenses as incurred by such D&O Indemnified Party to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law (provided

that the D&O Indemnified Party to whom expenses are advanced provides an undertaking to repay such advances if it is ultimately determined

that such D&O Indemnified Party is not entitled to indemnification), and any required cooperation in the defense of any such claim,

action, suit, proceeding or investigation.

(b)            Prior

to the Closing, Seller shall cause the Companies to obtain, with fifty percent (50%) of the cost to be borne by Purchaser and fifty percent

(50%) of the cost to be borne by Seller, a fully pre-paid tail endorsement for any directors’ and officers’ liability insurance

policy, errors and omissions insurance policy, employment practices liability insurance policy, fiduciary liability insurance policy

and other non-occurrence-based insurance policies of the Companies identified by Purchaser (collectively, the “Tail Policies”)

that are each to remain in effect for a period of not less than six (6) years after the Closing, providing for coverage and amounts,

and containing other terms and conditions, to be mutually agreed by Seller and Purchaser, in each case with respect to claims arising

from facts or events which occurred at or prior to the Closing. Purchaser shall maintain in effect such Tail Policies (provided

that Purchaser may substitute therefor policies with a substantially comparable insurer of at least the same coverage and amounts containing

terms and conditions which are no less advantageous to the insured) with respect to claims against the present and former officers and

directors of any Company arising from facts or events which occurred at or before Closing (including the Transactions); provided,

that neither Purchaser nor Seller shall be obligated to expend any funds to maintain such Tail Policies. If Purchaser or any Company

purchases such a replacement “tail policy,” following Closing, the Companies shall maintain such “tail policy”

in full force and effect and continue to honor its obligations thereunder in accordance with its terms with Purchaser bearing the incremental

cost of such replacement policy.

the event that Purchaser or any of its successors or assigns shall (i) consolidate with or merge into any other Person and shall

not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger, (ii) transfer all or substantially all

its properties, assets or deposits to any Person or (iii) or engage in any similar transaction, then, and in each such case, Purchaser

shall cause proper provision to be made so that the successor and assignee of Purchaser assumes the obligations set forth in this Section 7.10.

101

(d)            The

obligations of Purchaser and Seller under this Section 7.10 shall not be terminated or modified after Closing in a manner

so as to adversely affect any D&O Indemnified Party or any other person entitled to the benefit of this Section 7.10

without the prior written consent of the affected D&O Indemnified Party or affected person.

(e)            The

provisions of this Section 7.10 shall survive the Closing and are intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable

by, each D&O Indemnified Party, his or her heirs and his or her legal representatives.

(f)            Notwithstanding

anything to the contrary in the foregoing, (i) to the extent that a D&O Indemnified Party has rights to indemnification, advancement

of expenses and/or insurance provided by Parent, Seller or any other Retained Entity, it is the intent of the parties that such obligations

shall be primary to any obligation of Purchaser or the Companies; provided, however, that nothing herein shall prevent any D&O Indemnified

Party from seeking indemnification or advancement from the Companies to the extent entitled thereto under applicable Law or the Organizational

Documents of the Companies, subject to any rights of reimbursement; provided further that Parent, Seller or a Retained Entity, as applicable,

shall use commercially reasonable efforts to advance expenses incurred by any D&O Indemnified Party to satisfy indemnifiable amounts

for which they are responsible, in each case to the extent required by applicable agreements or Law; and (ii) nothing in this Section 7.10

shall require Purchaser or any Company to provide indemnification or advancement of expenses to any D&O Indemnified Party in respect

of any claim brought by Purchaser or any Company against such Person pursuant to this Agreement or any other Transaction Agreement, or

to the extent such claim relates to any Retained Entity, any Retained Business or any Excluded Liability; provided that, to the extent

that any D&O Indemnified Party is entitled to advancement of expenses under the Organizational Documents of the Companies, such advancement

shall be made subject to customary undertakings to repay if it is ultimately determined that such Person is not entitled to indemnification;

provided further that, any Liabilities of Purchaser, the Companies or their respective Affiliates arising from the matters described

in this Section 7.10(f) shall constitute Excluded Liabilities for purposes of this Agreement.

Section 7.11            Certain

Consents. During the Interim Period, Seller shall cause the Companies to use reasonable best efforts to obtain the consent or approval

of, or to provide notice to, any counterparty to any Contract to which any Company is a party or any other third party to the extent

that it is or may be required to be obtained or provided under the terms thereof in connection with the Transactions. Parent and Seller

shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such consents or approvals; provided, however, that the failure to obtain any such

consents or approvals shall not, in any material respect, interfere with, hinder or limit the ability of Parent or Seller (or their applicable

Affiliates) to provide the services contemplated under the Transition Services Agreement in accordance with the terms thereof. Nothing

in this Section 7.11 shall obligate or be construed to obligate Seller or any of its Affiliates (including any Company) to

(a) make, or to cause to be made, any payment to any third Person (other than outside advisor or similar fees in connection therewith),

(b) commence any Action or (c) offer to grant any material accommodation (financial or otherwise) to any third Person in each

case in order to obtain the consent or approval of such third Person under any Contract. Seller shall reasonably consult with Purchaser

in relation to any such consents, notices and approvals, and shall provide copies to Purchaser of each of the foregoing, as well as an

opportunity for Purchaser to provide comments thereon, which Parent and Seller shall consider in good faith, acting reasonably. For the

avoidance of doubt, any notice, consent, or approval involving a Governmental Entity is governed under Section 7.8 or Section 7.9,

as applicable, and any Restructuring Transactions are governed under Section 7.28, and neither such matter is governed under

this Section 7.11.

102

Section 7.12           Tax

Matters.

(a)            Following

the Closing, Seller and Purchaser shall (and shall cause their respective Affiliates (including, with respect to Purchaser, the

Companies) to) provide the other party and its Affiliates with such assistance and information as may be reasonably requested in connection

with the preparation of any Tax Return relating to the Companies with respect to a Pre-Closing Tax Period or any Straddle Period, and

the conduct of any Tax Action, examination or contest relating to any of the Companies with respect to a Pre-Closing Tax Period or any

Straddle Period, provided that the foregoing shall be done in a manner so as not to interfere unreasonably with the conduct of

the business of the parties and the party requesting assistance or information shall reimburse the other party for any reasonable, out-of-pocket

costs incurred with respect to such requested assistance or information. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement,

Seller shall have no obligation to provide any consolidated, combined, or unitary Tax Return of Seller and Purchaser shall have no access

to any consolidated, combined, or unitary Tax Return of Seller.

(b)            Any

and all Tax sharing, allocation, indemnity or similar Contracts binding the Companies (other than Contracts entered into in the

ordinary course of business, the principal purpose of which is not Taxes) shall be terminated as of the Closing Date, and neither Company

shall have any liability thereunder for any taxable period or portion thereof beginning on the day after the Closing Date.

purposes of this Agreement, in the case of any Taxes that are payable for a Straddle Period, the portion of such Tax which relates to

the portion of such Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date shall (i) in the case of any Taxes, other than Taxes described in

clause (ii), be deemed to be the amount of such Tax for the entire taxable period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which

is the number of days in the taxable period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in the entire

taxable period, and (ii) in the case of any Tax based upon or related to income, receipts or payroll, be deemed equal to the amount

which would be payable if the relevant taxable period ended as of the end of the Closing Date; provided that any transactions

or events outside of the ordinary course of business occurring on the Closing Date after the Closing and not otherwise expressly contemplated

by this Agreement shall be treated as occurring in the portion of such Straddle Period beginning after the Closing Date. For the avoidance

of doubt, the Transaction Tax Deductions shall be reflected in the Pre-Closing Tax Period to the maximum extent permitted by applicable

Law.

(d)            The

parties hereto shall, to the extent permitted or required under applicable Law, treat the Closing Date as the last day of the taxable

period of the Companies for all Tax purposes.

103

(e)            Except

as required by applicable Law, Purchaser shall not, and shall not cause any of its Affiliates to, take any of the following actions without

Seller’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed) to the extent any of the following actions

could reasonably be expected to increase Seller’s Tax liability with respect to any Pre-Closing Tax Period: (i) file, amend,

or otherwise modify any Tax Return of the Companies relating to a Pre-Closing Tax Period or Straddle Period (except any such Tax Returns

that are filed in accordance with Section 7.12(f)), (ii) extend or waive, or cause to be extended or waived, any statute

of limitations or other period for the assessment of any Tax or deficiency with respect to the Companies relating to a Pre-Closing Tax

Period or Straddle Period, (iii) make or change any Tax election or accounting method or practice with respect to the Companies

with respect to, or that has retroactive effect to, any Pre-Closing Tax Period or Straddle Period, or (iv) enter into any voluntary

contact with a Governmental Entity (including any voluntary disclosure agreement or similar process) with respect to the Companies regarding

any Pre-Closing Tax Period or Straddle Period.

(f)            Purchaser

shall prepare and timely file or cause to be prepared and timely filed (taking into account all extensions properly obtained) all separate

company Tax Returns of the Companies for any Pre-Closing Tax Period and any Straddle Period first due after the Closing (the “Purchaser

Prepared Returns”). Each Purchaser Prepared Return shall be prepared and filed in a manner consistent with past practice, unless

otherwise required by Law. Purchaser will submit each Purchaser Prepared Return to Seller for Seller’s review and comment at least

twenty (20) days prior to the due date for filing such Purchaser Prepared Return (taking into account all extensions properly obtained)

and, prior to filing, will consider in good faith any reasonable comments timely made by Seller on such Purchaser Prepared Return. With

respect to any Purchaser Prepared Return that relates to income Taxes, Purchaser agrees that such Tax Return shall reflect Transaction

Tax Deductions to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law.

(g)            Seller

and Purchaser intend that the purchase and sale of the Company Shares pursuant to this Agreement constitute “qualified stock dispositions”

of the Companies within the meaning of Section 336(e) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder. Seller

and Purchaser shall make, or cause to be made, timely and valid elections under Section 336(e) of the Code with respect to

the acquisition of the Company Shares for each Company (the “Section 336(e) Elections”). Seller and Purchaser

shall cooperate to effectuate the Section 336(e) Elections, including (i) jointly executing any election statements, forms,

or other documents required to make such election, (ii) filing such documents with the Internal Revenue Service in accordance with

applicable Treasury Regulations, and (iii) providing any information reasonably required to complete such filings.

(h)            Within

ninety (90) days following the Closing Date, Purchaser shall deliver to Seller promptly a schedule allocating the “aggregate deemed

asset disposition price” (including liabilities deemed assumed) resulting from the Section 336(e) Elections among the

assets of each Company in accordance with Section 1060 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder and consistent with the

principles of Treasury Regulations Section 1.336-2 (the “Allocation Schedule”). If, within ten (10) days

following delivery of the Allocation Schedule, Seller does not notify Purchaser in writing of its disagreement with the Allocation Schedule,

the Allocation Schedule shall be final and binding. If within such ten (10)-day period Seller so notifies Purchaser, Seller and Purchaser

shall endeavor to resolve such disagreement, and if they are able to do so shall make such revisions to the Allocation Schedule to reflect

such resolution, which shall be final and binding.

104

(i)            If,

within thirty (30) days following delivery of the Allocation Schedule by Purchaser to Seller, Seller and Purchaser are unable to resolve

such disagreement, such disagreement shall be submitted to the Independent Accountant applying the principles of Section 2.3(e).

(j)            Subject

to Section 7.12(a) and, prior to settling, compromising, conceding, or otherwise resolving the Leasing Tax Audit (as

defined on Schedule 10.4(a)(v)), Seller shall provide Purchaser with a reasonably detailed description of the proposed settlement

and the expected Tax consequences thereof and will consider in good faith any reasonable comments made by Purchaser with respect thereto.

(k)            In

connection with the final determination of the Final Closing Statement (including Closing Indebtedness) in accordance with Section 2.3(d) and

Section 2.3(e), as applicable, Seller will determine if any payments of estimated income Taxes and overpayments of Taxes

that were paid or remitted prior to the Closing Date would have resulted in a tax refund to a Company on a jurisdiction by jurisdiction

basis (such amounts, the “Delayed Refunds”) and shall provide a proposed statement to Purchaser detailing such Delayed

Refunds, which for the avoidance of doubt, shall be subject to, and finalized by applying, the review and dispute procedures set forth

in Section 2.3(d) and Section 2.3(e). If any portion of the Delayed Refunds (as finalized) (i) would have reduced

the Tax Liability Amount (as finalized) below zero, (ii) would have been treated as a reduction Closing Indebtedness (as finalized),

and (iii) was not treated as a reduction to Closing Indebtedness (as finalized) because the Tax Liability Amount (as finalized),

for purposes of this Agreement, could not be below zero, such portion of the Delayed Refunds (as finalized) shall be for the benefit

of Seller (such portion, the “Delayed Refund Amount”). Upon the receipt of or credit (in lieu thereof) for any Delayed

Refund by a Company, the Purchaser shall promptly cause the applicable Delayed Refund Amount to be paid to the Seller.

(l)            Each

party shall promptly notify the other parties of the assertion of any claim, or commencement of any action with respect to a Tax audit,

assessment, or administrative or judicial proceeding relating to a Tax pursuant to Section 10.4(a)(vi) for which Seller

is reasonably expected to have an indemnification obligation under this Agreement (each a “Tax Contest”). With respect

to any such Tax Contest, Seller shall control such Tax Contest; provided, that Purchaser shall be able to participate in such Tax Contest

(at its expense) and, subject to Section 7.12(a) as applicable, (i) Seller shall keep Purchaser reasonably informed

of all material developments and events with respect to the Tax Contest and (ii) neither Seller nor Purchaser shall enter into any

settlement of or otherwise compromise any Tax Contest that adversely affects or may adversely affect the Tax Liability of Seller or the

Companies for any Pre-Closing Tax Period without the prior written consent of Seller (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or

delayed).

Section 7.13           Transfer

Taxes. All Transfer Taxes incurred on the Share Purchase shall be equally borne by Purchaser, on the one hand, and Seller, on the

other hand. Purchaser and Seller shall cooperate in timely filing all necessary Tax Returns and other documentation with respect to all

such Transfer Taxes.

105

Section 7.14           R&W

Insurance. Within three (3) Business Days following the execution and delivery of this Agreement, Purchaser shall authorize

and instruct that the representations and warranties insurance policy, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit F (the “R&W

Policy”), be conditionally bound at Closing, subject to the conditions herein and therein. Purchaser acknowledges and agrees

that all premiums, underwriting fees, brokers’ commissions and all other fees, costs or expenses related to establishing and maintaining

the R&W Policy will be borne solely by Purchaser (the “R&W Policy Costs”). Purchaser agrees that the R&W

Policy will provide that the insurers thereunder irrevocably waive and shall not pursue any subrogation rights or any other claims against

Seller or its Affiliates (the “RWI Protected Persons”) except in the case of claims against any such Person in respect

of Fraud (and, in such case, only as to such Fraud). Without Seller’s prior written consent, Purchaser and its Affiliates shall

not amend, modify or otherwise change, terminate or waive the R&W Policy in any manner adverse to Seller’s liability thereunder

in any material respect. Purchaser acknowledges that obtaining the R&W Policy is a material inducement to Seller entering into the

Transactions and Seller is relying on Purchaser’s covenants and obligations in this Section 7.14.

Section 7.15           Transaction

Steps. Prior to or at the Closing, as applicable, Parent, Seller and the Companies shall take all actions, steps, and deliver the

documentation, in each case, contemplated in Exhibit H (such actions, steps and documents, the “Transaction Steps”).

Any modification or amendment of the actions and steps that comprise the Transaction Steps from time to time shall require the mutual

written agreement of the parties hereto. Parent, Seller and the Companies shall keep Purchaser and its Representatives reasonably informed

of the status of the Restructuring Transactions. All Contracts required to effectuate the Transaction Steps shall be on forms reasonably

acceptable to Purchaser.

Section 7.16           No

Negotiations. Each of Parent and Seller agree that during the Interim Period, Parent and Seller shall not, and each shall cause their

respective Affiliates not to, directly or indirectly solicit, purposefully or knowingly encourage, or initiate the submission of proposals

or offers from, provide any confidential or nonpublic information to, or participate in, in each case, any proposals, offers, discussions

or negotiations, or enter into any agreement with, any Person (other than Purchaser and its Affiliates) concerning (a) any acquisition

or purchase, direct or indirect, of any Equity Securities of any of the Companies, (b) any acquisition, lease, license, sublicense

or purchase of the assets of the Business or the Companies, in each case, taken as a whole, other than transactions contemplated pursuant

to, or expressly permitted by, this Agreement, and/or (c) a merger, consolidation, share exchange, business combination, reorganization,

recapitalization, liquidation, dissolution or other similar transaction involving the Companies or the Business (any such proposals,

offers, discussions, negotiations or agreements of the nature described in any of clauses (a), (b) or (c), each an “Acquisition

Proposal”). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Parent and Seller shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates

to, and will use their reasonable best efforts to cause their respective Representatives to, immediately cease and cause to be terminated

all existing discussions or negotiations with any Person other than Purchaser conducted theretofore with respect to any Acquisition Proposal.

Promptly following the date hereof, Parent and Seller shall, or shall cause a Representative of Parent to, instruct any such Person to

return or destroy all nonpublic information provided to such Person in connection with such Person’s consideration of any Acquisition

Proposal in accordance with the confidentiality agreements entered into between Parent or any of its Affiliates and any such Person.

Parent and Seller shall promptly (but in any event within one (1) Business Day of receipt thereof) notify Purchaser of any indication

of interest, inquiry, proposal, offer or request for information relating to an Acquisition Proposal that is received by Seller or any

of its Affiliates during the Interim Period, and provide Purchaser with a written summary thereof. Parent and Seller shall keep Purchaser

reasonably informed of the status and material developments of such Acquisition Proposal.

106

Section 7.17           Further

Assurances. Following the Closing, each party shall take or cause to be taken all reasonable actions, execute and deliver such additional

reasonable instruments, documents, conveyances or assurances (in each case, including that which is necessary or appropriate to accomplish

following the Closing, the release of Encumbrances, which were not released on or prior to the Closing) and to do or cause to be done

all other things, reasonable, necessary, proper or advisable, or otherwise reasonably requested by another party hereto, in order for

such party to fulfill and perform its obligations in respect of this Agreement and the Transaction Agreements to which any such Person

is a party, or otherwise to consummate and make effective the Transactions and carry out the intent and purposes of this Agreement and

each other Transaction Agreement. Each party hereto is to bear its own costs and expenses in compliance with this Section 7.17,

except as expressly provided otherwise in this Agreement.

Section 7.18           Debt

and Equity Financing.

(a)            Purchaser

shall use its reasonable best efforts to consummate the Equity Financing and Debt Financing to facilitate the Closing when required by

Section 2.4(a) on the terms and conditions described in the Equity Commitment Letter and the Debt Commitment Letters,

including using reasonable best efforts to (i) maintain in effect the Commitment Letters in accordance with and until the funding

of the Financing thereunder, (ii) satisfy (or obtain waivers to satisfy) on, or prior to, the Closing Date, all conditions to funding

in the Commitment Letters and such definitive agreements to be entered into pursuant thereto applicable to Purchaser that are within

Purchaser’s control, (iii) negotiate definitive agreements with respect to the Debt Financing on terms and conditions described

in the Debt Commitment Letter in all material respects and (iv) enforce its rights under the Commitment Letters subject to the terms

thereof and Section 11.12.

(b)           In

the event any portion of the Debt Financing becomes unavailable on the terms and conditions contemplated in the applicable Debt Commitment

Letter and such amount is required to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (taking into account any then available

debt and equity financing): (x) Purchaser shall notify Seller as soon as reasonably practicable after becoming aware thereof and

(y) Purchaser shall use its reasonable best efforts to arrange to obtain such Debt Financing or any such unavailable portion of

the Debt Financing (the “Alternative Financing”) from the same or alternative Debt Financing Sources, which (A) taking

into account the funds under the remaining Debt Commitment Letter and any other available debt and equity financing, would be in an amount

sufficient for Purchaser to obtain the Required Amount at Closing and consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and

on terms that are not materially less favorable, taken as a whole, to Seller than those in the applicable Debt Commitment Letter (including

flex provisions) as in effect on the date hereof, (B) would not impose new or additional conditions or otherwise expand any of the

conditions to the provision of all or any portion of the Debt Financing (in each case as compared to the Debt Commitment Letters in effect

as of the date of this Agreement) and (C) would not reasonably be expected to prevent, impede or delay the consummation of the transactions

contemplated by this Agreement.

107

shall, upon request of Seller, keep Seller informed on a reasonably current basis in reasonable detail of the status of its efforts to

obtain the Debt Financing and Equity Financing (and any Alternative Financing). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Purchaser

shall notify Seller as promptly as reasonably practicable (i) if there exists any material breach or material default by any party

to a Commitment Letter, in each case, of which Purchaser obtains knowledge, (ii) of the receipt by Purchaser of any written notice

or other written communication from any Lender with respect to (A) any material breach or material default by any party to a Commitment

Letter or (B) a material dispute or disagreement between or among any parties to any Commitment Letter related to the Debt Financing

with respect to the obligation to fund the Debt Financing or the Equity Financing, as applicable, at Closing on the terms and conditions

set forth in the applicable Commitment Letters; provided that in no event will Purchaser be under any obligation to disclose any

information pursuant to this Section 7.18(c) that (1) is subject to attorney-client or similar privilege (subject

to Purchaser and Seller collaborating in good faith to make alternative arrangements to allow for such disclosure in a manner that does

not result in loss of attorney-client or similar privilege) or (2) would contravene any applicable Law, fiduciary duty or binding

agreement entered into prior to the date of this Agreement (including any confidentiality agreement to which Purchaser or its Affiliates

is a party).

(d)            Purchaser

shall not amend, supplement, modify or waive any provision of any Commitment Letter or definitive agreements relating to the Financing

other than (i) to (A) add lenders, lead arrangers, arrangers, bookrunners, agents or similar entities, as applicable, as parties

to any Commitment Letter, (B) implement or exercise any of the flex provisions contained in the Debt Commitment Letters, (C) amendments

contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter as in effect on the date hereof, (D) expressly set forth in this Section 7.18

with respect to any Alternative Financing and (E) reallocate commitments or assign or reassign titles or roles to, or between or

among, any parties to the Debt Commitment Letters or (ii) otherwise so long as such amendments, supplements, modifications and waivers

(A) would not or would not reasonably be expected to impose new or additional conditions or otherwise expand any of the conditions

to the provision of all or any portion of the Debt Financing or Equity Financing (in each case as compared to the Debt Commitment Letters

or Equity Commitment Letters in effect as of the date of this Agreement), (B) would not reasonably be expected to prevent, impede

or delay the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and (C) would not reduce the aggregate amount of the

Financing (in each case, except as expressly permitted therein) to an amount less than an amount equal to the Required Amount.

(e)            Notwithstanding

anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Seller (on behalf of itself and each of its controlled Affiliates and its and their respective

directors, officers and employees) hereby waives any rights or claims it may have against any Debt Financing Source or any of their respective

Affiliates and any of their respective former, current and future direct or indirect equity holders, controlling persons, stockholders,

agents, Affiliates, members, managers, general or limited partners, assignees or Representatives (collectively, the “Debt Financing

Source Related Parties”) in connection with this Agreement, the Debt Financing or the Debt Commitment Letters, whether at law

or equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise, and Seller (on behalf of itself and each of its controlled Affiliates and its and their

respective directors, officers and employees) agrees not to commence (and if commenced, agrees to dismiss or otherwise terminate) any

dispute, suit, claim, litigation, investigation, proceeding or other action against any Debt Financing Source Related Party in connection

with this Agreement, the Debt Financing or the Debt Commitment Letters. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing waiver,

it is agreed that no Debt Financing Source Related Party shall have any liability for any claims, losses, settlements, damages, costs,

expenses, fines or penalties to Seller (or any of its current and future direct or indirect equity holders, controlling persons, stockholders,

agents, Affiliates, members, managers, general or limited partners, assignees and Representatives) in connection with this Agreement

or the transactions contemplated hereby. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 7.18(e) shall in any

way limit or modify the rights and obligations of Purchaser under the Debt Commitment Letters or the definitive agreements related thereto.

108

reasonable best efforts to take such actions as are reasonably requested by Purchaser to assist with collateral audits and due diligence

examination, including collateral eligibility criteria and other related criteria described in or contemplated by the Debt Commitment

Letters;

(x)            providing

reasonable assistance with (A) the preparation of the borrowing base certificate contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letters and

the purposes of establishing collateral arrangements in accordance with the Transaction Steps;

provided,

that, notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller shall not be required to provide, or cause any of their Subsidiaries or any of their respective

Affiliates or their respective Representatives to provide, cooperation under this Section 7.19 that unreasonably interferes

with the ongoing business or operations of the Companies.

Section 7.20           Notifications

and Consultation.

(a)           Seller

shall, and shall cause the Finance Company to, deliver to Purchaser on a monthly basis, on the first (1st) Business Day following the

end of each month, an updated Loan Tape (as defined in the Debt Commitment Letters) as of a date no later than two (2) Business

Days prior to the date of its delivery and shall ensure that such Loan Tape is true, correct and accurate as of the date of such Loan

Tape. Seller shall, and shall cause the Finance Company to, provide Purchaser with reasonable access to the personnel and records of

the Finance Company to assist Purchaser in evaluating such Loan Tapes and to confirm that the Finance Company has complied with its obligations

under this Agreement, including Section 7.1.

110

(b)            Seller

shall, and shall cause the Finance Company to, deliver to Purchaser on the date that is five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing

an updated Loan Tape as of the close of business on the sixth (6th) Business Day prior to the Closing (the “Closing Loan Tape”)

and Seller shall, and shall cause the Finance Company to, ensure that such Loan Tape is true, correct and accurate as of the date of

such Closing Loan Tape. Seller shall, and shall cause the Finance Company to, at the request of Purchaser, cause Mike Bruman (Chief Executive

Officer), Rob Hill (Senior Vice President of Finance), Jon Yap (Treasury Director) and other personnel of the Finance Company reasonably

requested by Purchaser to meet with Purchaser no later than two (2) Business Days after the delivery of such Loan Tape to discuss

such Loan Tape.

Section 7.21            USB

Drive. At the Closing, Seller shall deliver to Purchaser five (5) copies of a USB drive or other electronic file (at Purchaser’s

election) containing a complete copy of the data room established by Seller or its Representatives in connection with the Transactions.

Section 7.22            Confidentiality

Agreements. Prior to the Closing, Seller hereby agrees to use, and to cause the Companies to use, commercially reasonable efforts

to cause the Company Employees set forth on Schedule 7.22 to execute and deliver confidentiality, non-solicit and inventions assignment

agreements in a form that is reasonably acceptable to Purchaser and any other standard onboarding documents reasonably requested by Purchaser,

and Seller shall pay or provide sufficient consideration as may be required under applicable Law to secure a valid confidentiality, non-solicit

and inventions assignment agreement from the Company Employees set forth on Schedule 7.22; provided, that if (i) Seller

is unable to enter into such agreements with any Company Employee prior to Closing and (ii) such employee has previously entered

into a confidentiality or similar agreement with Seller or any other Retained Entity, as applicable, then (A) Seller or such applicable

Retained Entity shall assign, or caused to be assigned, such agreement to the applicable Company (as designated by Purchaser) prior to

the Closing and effective at Closing to the extent assignment of such agreement is not prohibited by Law or (B) Seller shall cause

Purchaser to obtain the benefit of such agreement as a third-party beneficiary thereunder, with the same rights as if a direct party

thereto, subject to compliance with applicable Law.

Section 7.23            Background

IP License. Effective as of the Closing Date, Parent and Seller (and the other Retained Entities, as applicable) grant to Purchaser

and the Companies a non-exclusive, royalty-free, fully paid-up, non-transferable (except to a controlled Affiliate, as permitted under

Section 11.1 or to any successor or purchaser of all or substantially all of the Business or the applicable portion thereof

to which the Retained Shared IP relates), perpetual, irrevocable, non-sublicensable (except to third-party service providers solely to

provide services to or for the benefit of Purchaser and the Companies, and subject to confidentiality obligations at least as protective

as those set forth herein) worldwide license under the Retained Shared IP solely in connection with the operation, and maintenance, of

the Business as conducted as of the Closing Date and natural evolutions thereof or to exploit the Owned Intellectual Property as of the

Closing Date and natural evolutions thereof. Parent, Seller and the Retained Entities retain the right to use, license, sublicense, transfer,

and commercialize such Retained Shared IP without restriction, except that Parent, Seller and the Retained Entities will not, knowingly

or intentionally license, sublicense or transfer such Retained Shared IP to a third party that directly competes with the Business as

conducted by the Companies as of the Closing Date. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section grants a license only under the Retained

Shared IP and does not grant any license, whether express, implied or otherwise, under any Retained IP.

111

Section 7.24            Non-Solicitation;

Non-Competition.

(a)            For

a period of three (3) years following the Closing Date (the “Restricted Period”), each of Parent and Seller shall

not, and each shall cause each of its controlled Affiliates to not, directly or indirectly, (i) solicit or hire (or cause to be

directly or indirectly solicited or hired) any Company Employee; provided that the foregoing (A) solicitation restriction

shall not apply to generalized searches by use of advertising or recruiting efforts (including the use of search firms) that are not

specifically targeted at such Company Employees, and (B) solicitation and hiring restriction shall not apply to any employee who

is terminated by Purchaser or any of its Affiliates and that has not been so employed by Purchaser or its Affiliates for at least twelve

(12) months following such termination (provided, that such twelve-month period shall not apply with respect to any such employee

whose employment has been terminated by Purchaser or its Affiliates without cause), or (ii) solicit, or assist others in soliciting,

any Person that is, or at any time within the twelve (12) months prior to Closing had been, a partner, supplier, vendor, third-party

specialty finance company, intermediary, customer, contractor, subcontractor, licensor, licensee, broker or other business relation of

any of the Companies or the Business in connection with any Competitive Activity or that diverts from, interferes, or takes away from

the Business or the relationship of such Person with the Business.

(b)            During

the Restricted Period, Purchaser shall not, and shall cause its controlled Affiliates (including, after the Closing, the Companies) not

to, directly or indirectly, solicit or hire (or cause to be directly or indirectly solicited or hired) as an employee or engage as a

consultant any employee of any Retained Entity to the extent set forth on Schedule 7.24(b); provided that the foregoing

restriction shall not apply to (i) generalized searches by use of advertising or recruiting efforts (including the use of search

firms) that are not specifically targeted at such employees; or (ii) soliciting or hiring any such employee who is no longer employed

by a Retained Entity or any of its Affiliates and has not been so employed by a Retained Entity or its Affiliates for at least twelve

(12) months (provided, that such twelve (12)-month period shall not apply with respect to any such employee whose employment has

been terminated by a Retained Entity or its Affiliates without cause).

112

the prior written consent of Purchaser, during the Restricted Period, each of Parent and Seller shall not, and shall cause each of its

controlled Affiliates to not, directly or indirectly, (i) engage in, or assist others in engaging in, any Competitive Activity in

the Territory (whether through consultation, advisory services, representation on a board of directors or similar governing body or by

any financial or other investment); (ii) have a financial or ownership interest in any Person that engages directly or indirectly

in any Competitive Activity in the Territory in any capacity, including as a partner, stockholder, member, agent, trustee, financing

source (other than in the ordinary course of business of Parent and Seller) investor, intermediary or consultant; or (iii) intentionally

interfere in any material respect with the business relationships (whether formed prior to or after the date of this Agreement) between

any of the Companies, on the one hand, and any customer, borrower, Syndication counterparty, Third Party Serviced Contracts counterparty,

supplier, licensee, licensor, client, vendor or distributor of the Business, on the other hand. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each of

Parent, Seller and the Retained Entities may, directly or indirectly, acquire or own as a passive investment, securities or any indebtedness

of any Person that is engaged in a Competitive Activity in the Territory if neither Parent, Seller nor any Retained Entity, directly

or indirectly, beneficially or of record owns in the aggregate more than five percent (5%) of the outstanding securities or indebtedness

of such Person. Nothing in this Section 7.24(c) shall prevent Parent, Seller or any Retained Entity from entering into

one or more corporate acquisitions during the Restricted Period (including any merger, acquisition, stock purchase, or asset purchase)

with one or more Persons that engage, directly or indirectly, in Competitive Activities (following each such corporate acquisition, taken

together with Parent, Seller and its Affiliates, the “Combined Company”), so long as (x) such transaction involves

the acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding equity of Parent in a merger or other similar transaction by a Third Party, or (y) following

such acquisitions (including when taken in the aggregate with all prior acquisitions), (1) the gross book value of the assets of

the Combined Company that are used in, or attributable to, any Competitive Activities does not, and would not, at any time, represent

in the aggregate, greater than five percent (5%) of the total consolidated gross book value of the assets of the Combined Company, and

(2) either (x) the operations of the Combined Company relating to the Competitive Activities are promptly discontinued, except

to the extent involving Permitted Activities which would not be required to be discontinued, or (y) the portion of the Combined

Company that engages in such Competitive Activity is sold to a Third Party within twelve (12) months of such acquisition (which such

period shall be extended for up to an additional six (6) months to the extent reasonably necessary to obtain any required regulatory

approvals or clearances in connection with such sale). Purchaser (A) acknowledges that Seller and the Retained Entities operate,

and the Retained Business is comprised of, a business that is separate and distinct from the Business and (B) acknowledges and

agrees that nothing in ‎this Section 7.24(c) is intended to limit, and the restrictions set forth in ‎this

Section 7.24(c) shall have no effect on the ability of, Seller and the Retained Entities to continue making Loans and/or

engage in ordinary course activities that are reasonably related to the origination, syndication or sale of such Loans. This Section 7.24(c) is

not intended to restrict the activities of any stockholders or Affiliates of Seller (other than Parent, Seller and their respective Subsidiaries,

including through their non-independent directors, officers and employees). “Competitive Activities” means the Business.

“Permitted Activities” means activities of a Person that involve Competitive Activities solely to the extent that

(i) the annual origination volume of such Person(s) (or its business) attributable to such Competitive Activities does not

exceed $100,000,000, measured both (A) for the most recently completed twelve (12)-month period prior to such acquisition and (B) on

a pro forma basis following such acquisition and (ii) the origination volume attributable to such Competitive Activities constitutes

no more than 10% of the total origination volume of such Person(s) (or its business), whether taken individually or as part of the

Combined Companies, as of the time of such acquisition. “Territory” means anywhere in the United States of America.

(d)            In

the event of an actual breach or violation by Parent, Seller or any of their respective controlled Affiliates of a covenant in this Agreement,

the applicable period under this Section 7.24 shall be tolled until such breach or violation has been duly cured. Each of

Parent and Seller, on behalf of itself and its controlled Affiliates, agrees and acknowledges that the duration, scope and geographic

area of the covenants described in this Section 7.24 are fair, reasonable and necessary in order to protect the Business’s

goodwill and other legitimate interests of the Companies as those interests exist as of the date hereof and/or as of Closing.

113

Section 7.25            Resignations.

Seller shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, use reasonable best efforts to cause to be delivered to Purchaser duly signed resignations,

effective at the time of Closing, of all directors of the Companies as have been requested by Purchaser at least three (3) Business

Days prior to the Closing Date.

Section 7.26            Use

of Names. Except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Section 7.26, as soon as reasonably practicable following the

Closing, but not later than thirty (30) days after the Closing Date, Seller and its Affiliates shall cease all use of and shall cause

the Retained Entities to cease all use of the trademarks, service marks, trade dress, trade names, entity names, Internet domain

names, and registrations and applications for registration thereof, together with all of the goodwill associated therewith, in each case

that are used in the Business (collectively, the “Marks”), including the name “Navitas” or any trademarks

or domain names that incorporate, are transliterations of, are variations of or stylized versions of, any Mark or any trademark or domain

name that is confusingly similar in sound or appearance to any Mark. Seller acknowledges that a violation of this Section 7.26

may cause Purchaser and the Companies irreparable harm that may not be adequately compensated for by monetary damages. Seller therefore

agrees that in the event of any actual or threatened violation of this Section 7.26, Purchaser shall be entitled, in addition

to other remedies that it may have, to seek a temporary restraining order and to preliminary and final injunctive relief against Seller

or such Affiliate of Seller or the Retained Entities to prevent any violations of this Section 7.26. Notwithstanding the

foregoing, Seller and its Affiliates will be permitted to retain and use, to the extent reasonably necessary, internal records and other

historical or archived documents containing or referencing the Marks and to make factually accurate historical references to the Business

formerly being owned and operated by Seller and its Affiliates.

Section 7.27            Insurance.

(a)            From

and following the date hereof, each of Parent and Seller shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, keep insurance policies

and programs (including property, general liability, workers’ compensation, umbrella, financial institutions bond crime, automobile

liability, cyber liability, directors’ and officers’ liability policies, and such other insurance as is customary for businesses

of a similar type and size as the Business) or self-insured retentions, in each case, as maintained for the benefit of, or accessible

by, the Companies, the D&O Indemnified Parties and/or the Business that have been in place at any point within the twelve (12)-month

period prior to Closing, covering their business, assets, Equipment Financings, D&O Indemnified Parties and current or former employees

of the Business, as the case may be, for claims, acts, omissions, events, circumstances, occurrences or losses existing at, or occurring

prior to, the Closing (together with suitable replacement coverages, the “Insurance Coverage”) on terms and limits

no less favorable than those in effect during the twelve (12) months prior to the date of this Agreement, or shall procure suitable replacements

therefor against losses and risks (and in such amounts) as would be reasonably prudent and customary for the Companies and the Business

as existing during such period prior to Closing, in each case, which Parent and Seller shall maintain (or cause to be maintained) in

full force and effect through the close of business on the Closing Date. At all times, including through the close of business on the

Closing Date, Parent and Seller agree to, and to cause their respective Affiliates to, procure all necessary endorsements and otherwise

take such actions as may be reasonably necessary not to voluntarily materially amend, relinquish or terminate policies or allow coverage

to lapse for any policies providing Insurance Coverage if doing so would adversely affect the availability of such Insurance Coverage

by any of the Companies, the Business or the D&O Indemnified Parties following Closing from what would be reasonably suitable, prudent

and customary for the Companies and the Business as it existed as of Closing, and Parent and Seller agree to, and to cause their respective

Affiliates to, not (i) take any action outside of the ordinary course of business that would impair the ability of the Companies

to make claims (including reporting to the carrier of such Insurance Coverage to exclude the Companies, the Business or any D&O Indemnified

Parties from coverage thereunder and/or eliminating such Insurance Coverage in its entirety), (ii) take any action that is reasonably

expected to adversely affect the availability (including in respect of deductibles, retention, cap on coverage and similar limits) of

such Insurance Coverage to the Companies the Business and/or the D&O Indemnified Parties in a manner disproportionate to that of

the Retained Businesses, or (iii) administer such Insurance Coverages in relation to the Companies, the Business and/or the D&O

Indemnified Parties in a manner that is disproportionate and adverse to how Parent, Seller and their respective Affiliates administer

their insurance claims under the insurance policies of the Retained Entities (all such actions and restrictions in the foregoing, the

“Maintenance Requirements”); provided that, nothing in this Section 7.27 shall limit Parent’s

or Seller’s right to submit claims, recover coverage payments, and erode or exhaust the limits of liability under the Insurance

Coverage for the benefit of Parent, Seller or any of their respective Affiliates.

114

(b)            From

and after the Closing, Purchaser shall be responsible for procuring and maintaining insurance coverage for the Companies and the Business

with respect to post-Closing periods. From and after the Closing Date, each of Parent and Seller shall, and shall cause their respective

Affiliates to, use commercially reasonable efforts to keep certain insurance policies and programs (including general liability, workers’

compensation, umbrella, financial institutions crime bond, automobile liability, cyber liability policies, and such other occurrence

based insurance as is customary for businesses of a similar type and size as the Business) or self-insured retentions, in each case,

accessible by, the Companies and/or the Business, covering their business, assets, Equipment Financings, and current or former employees

of the Business, as the case may be, for claims, acts, omissions, events, circumstances, occurrences or losses existing at, or occurring

prior to, the Closing (together with replacement coverages, the “Maintained Insurance Coverage”) (provided

that neither Parent, Seller, nor any of their respective Affiliates, shall be required to renew the Maintained Insurance Coverage following

expiration of currently applicable expiration periods so long as any replacement coverages continue to cover the Business in substantially

the same manner as any original Maintained Insurance Coverage would cover the Business for pre-Closing Insurance Coverages) in the substantially

the same manner as the Maintenance Requirements established by Section 7.27(a). With respect to the Maintained Insurance

Coverage, and notwithstanding the Closing, Purchaser, each Company, and their respective Affiliates shall be entitled, solely to the

extent available under the Maintained Insurance Coverage and subject in all respects to the terms, conditions, limitations, retentions

and insurer determinations thereunder (in each case, after Seller using commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate any such conditions,

limitations, and determinations), to assert claims and seek the benefit of the Maintained Insurance Coverage for losses arising from

or relating to any Company or the Business for pre-Closing periods, including claims first made or reported after the Closing Date. Such

rights shall include the right to submit claims, receive insurance proceeds, and participate in the defense and settlement of claims,

in each case to the same extent as if the Company remained an Affiliate of Seller, subject to the terms of this Section 7.27.

For the avoidance of doubt, (A) all such rights shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable insurance policies

and the decisions of the relevant insurers, including with respect to coverage determinations, defense, and settlement of claims, (B) nothing

herein shall be deemed to expand the scope of the Maintained Insurance Coverage or create any right to coverage not otherwise available

under the Maintained Insurance Coverage, and (C) Purchaser shall be responsible for satisfying any applicable then-current remaining

deductibles, retentions or similar required amounts in connection with any such claims.

115

and after the Closing, with respect to any claims, acts, omissions, events, circumstances, occurrences or losses existing at, or occurring

prior to, the Closing (regardless of whether Parent, Seller or any Company becomes aware thereof prior to, or following, the Closing)

for which any Maintained Insurance Coverage would be available, at Purchaser’s request, Seller shall, or shall cause any other

applicable Affiliate to, file all claims for coverage thereunder (including claims submitted following the Closing by or on behalf of

the Companies in respect of such periods) in the ordinary course of business in accordance with its standard risk management and claims

procedures to the same extent as if the Companies remained Affiliates of Parent and/or Seller. Parent and Seller shall, and shall cause

their respective Affiliates to, reasonably cooperate with Purchaser and the Companies in connection with the pursuit, defense, settlement,

and collection of any such claims, including by: (i) making available relevant policies and claims information, (ii) executing

customary consent and authorizations, and (iii) to the extent permitted under the applicable Maintained Insurance Coverage and subject

to the rights of the insurers thereunder, (A) reasonably consulting with Purchaser regarding the strategy, prosecution, defense

and settlement of such claims and shall considering in good faith Purchaser’s views with respect thereto and (B) permit Purchaser

to control the defense and settlement of such claims, subject to Seller’s reasonable consent if such settlement would materially

and adversely affect Seller or its Affiliates outside of the Business. Following Closing, Parent and Seller shall use their reasonable

best efforts to provide Purchaser with the benefit of the Maintained Insurance Coverage with respect to such claims to the extent losses

are covered notwithstanding the consummation of the Transactions, and Seller agrees that all insurance proceeds relating to claims arising

from or relating to the Companies or the Business for pre-Closing periods shall be for the benefit of the Purchaser or the Companies

and shall promptly remit (or cause to be remitted) the proceeds received from making such claims to Purchaser or a designee thereof;

provided, that (A) such recovery will be net of any deductibles or self-insured retention amounts, and collateral requirements

applicable to, or necessary to, ensure coverage for the Business and/or the Companies, or other reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses

incurred by Seller in connection with submitting any insured claims made after the Closing under the Maintained Insurance Coverage and

(B) Parent and Seller shall have no obligation to Purchaser or any of the Companies hereunder to prioritize claims of the Companies

over claims of Parent, Seller or any of their respective Affiliates.

(d)            From

and after the Closing, the availability of Maintained Insurance Coverage with respect to any claim shall be subject in all respects to

Seller’s or the applicable Retained Entity’s (as applicable) deductible, retention and similar limits and the terms, conditions,

exclusions, and limitations of such Maintained Insurance Coverage; provided, however, that Seller represents that it has not taken any

action to knowingly impair the availability of such Maintained Insurance Coverage for pre-Closing matters. To the extent that any such

Maintained Insurance Coverage is provided through a captive insurer or self-insurance program of Parent, Seller or any Retained Entity,

Parent and Seller shall cause such captive or program to respond to claims relating to pre-Closing periods as if the Companies remained

participants thereunder.

116

(e)            In

the event of any failure by any insurer to satisfy any claim (including to an insurer denying all or a portion of a claim, or determining

that a claim does not erode or exhaust an applicable deductible or retention), Parent, Seller and their respective Affiliates shall have

no liability or obligation to Purchaser pursuant to this Section 7.27, except for Parent’s, Seller’s or such

Affiliates’ breach or violation of this Section 7.27.

(f)            Parent

and Seller acknowledge and agree that Purchaser has relied on the accuracy of Section 4.24 (Insurance Policy) and Section 5.23

(Insurance Policy) in entering into this Agreement and, for Purchaser’s expectations of the scope and availability of the Insurance

Coverage and the Maintained Insurance Coverage, as applicable, hereunder, on this Section 7.27. To the extent that after

the Closing any party hereto reasonably requires any information regarding claim data, payroll or other information relating to any of

the Companies in order to make filings with insurance carriers from another party hereto, such other party hereto shall reasonably promptly

supply such information.

(g)            Following

Closing, in any transaction in which there is a direct or indirect change of control of Parent, Seller, or any of their respective Affiliates,

and solely in respect of any then-applicable Maintained Insurance Coverage on a claims made basis, Parent and Seller shall, and shall

cause their respective Affiliates to, (i) use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain run off Maintained Insurance Coverage

for at least six (6) years following the effective date of such change of control that is reasonably suitable, prudent and customary

to provide coverage against losses and risks (and in such amounts) for the Companies and the Business as it existed as of Closing or

(ii) in the event run off Maintained Insurance Coverage cannot be obtained, or can only be obtained for a premium or pursuant to

coverage terms in either case that Parent or Seller reasonably determines not to be acceptable, provide Purchaser with advance written

notice as soon as reasonably practicable of such change of control, subject to any restrictions on such notice pursuant to applicable

confidentiality obligations or other limitations and, in such case, shall reasonably cooperate with Purchaser in its efforts to obtain

such run off Maintained Insurance Coverage. Seller shall promptly provide written notice to Purchaser (or a designee thereof) of any

updates to the terms of the Maintained Insurance Coverage following the Closing to the extent such updates would affect the Companies’

or the Business’ coverage under such Maintained Insurance Coverage or any such Person’s ability to timely make claims thereunder.

Section 7.28            Wrong

Pockets.

(a)            Subject

to Section 7.28(c), Seller, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates, acknowledges and agrees that, no later than Closing,

each of Parent and Seller shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, take all steps reasonably necessary or advisable to

ensure that, upon Closing (and, if applicable, pursuant to documentation reasonably acceptable to Purchaser and upon consultation with

Purchaser), the Companies will, in the aggregate, (i) have sufficient personnel, and (ii) own, lease, license, or have the

right to use (including in respect of Intellectual Property, directly or ancillary to a license or right of a Company), or have good

and marketable title to (or a valid leasehold interest in or license to) all of the assets (whether tangible or intangible), Contracts,

properties, rights, Intellectual Property (whether owned or licensed) and authorizations, which, together with the services set

forth in Exhibit A of the Transition Services Agreement in respect of any Excluded Shared Assets, will be sufficient for Purchaser

and the Companies to operate and conduct the Business immediately upon Closing in substantially the same manner as the Business and the

Companies are conducted on the date hereof by Parent, Seller and their respective Affiliates (including the Companies).

117

(b)            Subject

to Section 7.28(c), Seller, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates, acknowledges and agrees that, no later than five (5) Business

Days prior to Closing, each of Parent and Seller shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, take all steps to ensure that,

upon Closing (and, if applicable, pursuant to documentation reasonably acceptable to Purchaser and upon consultation with Purchaser),

all Excluded Assets, together with any Liabilities in respect thereto (which will, for purposes of clarity, be Excluded Liabilities),

are assigned, transferred, conveyed, or caused to be assigned, transferred or conveyed, by the Finance Company to Seller (or a designated

Affiliate thereof that does not include the Finance Company), and Seller (or such designated Affiliate) shall accept and assume such

assignment, transfer, or conveyance, pursuant to documentation reasonably acceptable to Purchaser. During the Interim Period, the Finance

Company and Seller will negotiate in good faith to enter into a servicing agreement (the “Navitas Servicing Agreement”)

containing the terms set forth on Schedule 7.28(b)(i) (the “Service Terms”), in a form reasonably satisfactory

to Purchaser and Seller. Prior to Closing, the Finance Company and Seller will use reasonable best efforts to (i) complete and perform

the actions and obligations set forth on Schedule 7.28(b)(ii) and (ii) ensure that the assets contemplated to be serviced

under the Navitas Servicing Agreement (or otherwise) will conform to the Service Terms (each of clauses (i) and (ii), the “Servicing

Conditions”). In the event any of the Servicing Conditions are not met, regardless of whether or not Seller has satisfied its

efforts or a Navitas Servicing Agreement is finalized by the parties, none of Purchaser nor any of its Affiliates (including the Finance

Company following Closing) shall be required to service the specific Equipment Financing (including any Equipment Finance Contract or

any Third Party Serviced Contract) that relates to the failure to satisfy the Servicing Conditions and any Losses that may arise in respect

of servicing (or omission from servicing) any such Equipment Financing shall, from and after Closing, be deemed Excluded Liabilities

for all purposes of this Agreement.

the event any Non-Permitted Transfers exist, each of Parent and Seller shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, use commercially

reasonable efforts to obtain any consents, waivers, approvals, orders and authorizations of Third Parties necessary to effect any Non-Permitted

Transfers (collectively, the “Third-Party Approvals”) prior to the Closing, and Purchaser shall reasonably cooperate

with Seller and its Affiliates in connection therewith. In addition, to the extent permitted by Law and any applicable Contract, in the

event any Third-Party Approval related to any particular Contract, Intellectual Property or other asset or property has not been

obtained by the Closing, Seller shall not be deemed in breach of this Section 7.28 solely as a result thereof, and at Purchaser’s

request at any time (including following Closing), each of Parent and Seller shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, use

commercially reasonable efforts to enter into such arrangements (such as subleasing, sublicensing, subcontracting or other back-to-back

arrangements) to provide to Purchaser and its Subsidiaries (including the Companies), to the extent legally permissible, the economic

and, to the extent permitted under applicable Law and not prohibited by such Contract, Intellectual Property or other asset or property,

operational equivalent of the transfer of such Contract, Intellectual Property or other asset or property to the Companies as of

the Closing, and shall hold in trust for and pay to Purchaser or any Subsidiary of Purchaser, as designated by Purchaser, promptly upon

receipt thereof, all income, proceeds and other monies received by Seller or its Affiliates with respect to such Contract, Intellectual

Property or other asset or property, as applicable, to the extent related to such Contract, Intellectual Property or other asset

or property in connection with the arrangements under this Section 7.28(c) until such time as the Third-Party Approval

is obtained, but in no event longer than twelve (12) months after the Closing Date.

118

(d)            In

furtherance of Section 7.28(a), in the event that at any time following the date hereof (including from and after Closing),

Seller or the Retained Entities receive, or otherwise possess, any right, property or asset (whether tangible or intangible and including

Intellectual Property) that should belong to Purchaser or the Companies pursuant to this Agreement (including cash or any Contracts,

rights, assets or Intellectual Property required to fulfill the obligations of Seller and its Affiliates pursuant to Section 7.28(a)),

Parent and Seller shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, subject to applicable Law, promptly as reasonably practicable

transfer, or cause to be transferred, such right, property or asset to Purchaser or the appropriate Company, as designated by Purchaser,

for no additional consideration and net of Seller’s and the Retained Entities’ third-party out-of-pocket costs incurred to

effectuate such transfer and pursuant to documentation reasonably acceptable to Purchaser (and to the extent such asset is cash, Seller

shall provide a general explanation or description of such transfer). Prior to any such transfer, Parent and Seller shall, and shall

cause each Retained Entity (as applicable) to, hold such asset in trust, to the extent legally permissible, for the benefit of Purchaser

or the appropriate Company. In the event that at any time or from time to time after the Closing Date, Purchaser or any of its Affiliates,

including the Companies, receives or otherwise possesses any property or asset that should belong to Seller or any of the Retained Entities

pursuant to this Agreement (including cash or any Excluded Asset), Purchaser shall as promptly as reasonably practicable transfer, or

cause to be transferred, such asset (including any Excluded Asset) to Seller or the appropriate Retained Entity, designated by Seller,

for no consideration and net of Purchaser’s actual and documented out-of-pocket costs to effectuate such transfer, and to the extent

such asset is cash, Purchaser shall provide a general explanation or description of such transfer. Prior to any such transfer, Purchaser

shall hold such asset (or shall cause such asset to be held) in trust for the benefit of Seller.

(e)            Upon

the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein and in the Transaction Agreements, if, at any time following the Closing, Purchaser

is purported to be responsible for any Excluded Liability, Purchaser shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, reasonably promptly notify

and assign, transfer, convey, or cause to be assigned, transferred or conveyed, such Excluded Liability to Seller or their respective

Affiliates, as applicable, and Seller and their respective Affiliates, shall promptly accept and assume such assignment, transfer, or

conveyance, pursuant to documentation reasonably acceptable to Purchaser and Seller.

(f)            The

parties hereto agree that if an Action is commenced by a Third Party naming Purchaser (or any Affiliate of Purchaser) as defendants and

with respect to which Purchaser (or an Affiliate of Purchaser) is a nominal defendant and such Action is in respect of a Liability that

is not to be allocated to Purchaser or the Companies under this Agreement (including in respect of any Excluded Liabilities), then Seller

shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, reasonably cooperate with Purchaser or its Affiliate in their reasonable efforts seek dismissal

or removal from such Action, including providing such litigation support as reasonably requested by Purchaser in respect thereto. Seller

shall bear the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs incurred by Purchaser to the extent arising from the efforts to address

such claims attributable to Excluded Liabilities.

119

(g)            Each

party hereto shall at all times from and after the Closing cooperate with each other party to set up procedures and notifications as

are reasonably necessary or desirable to effectuate the transfers, conveyances, assignments and assumptions, in each case as contemplated

by this Section 7.28(g).

(h)            Any

transfer, conveyance or assumption of any of the assets, rights, properties or Liabilities under this Section 7.28 shall

be effected without any additional consideration payable by any party hereto.

Services.

(a)            At

the Closing, Seller and Finance Company shall enter into the Transition Services Agreement.

(b)            Commencing

upon the date hereof, Seller and Purchaser shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, subject to the terms and conditions

therein, implement and perform the plans, tasks, activities, and obligations set forth in the governance plan attached hereto as Exhibit G

(as may be amended from time to time, the “Governance Plan”). The parties hereto shall establish a committee with

formal procedures for overseeing the Governance Plan, as such committee is to be comprised as set forth in the framework specified therein.

soon as reasonably practicable following Closing, Seller and the Finance Company shall file or cause to be filed a UCC-3 termination

statement with respect to the Existing Financing Statements set forth on Schedule 1.1(ii).

TERMINATION

Section 9.1            Termination

of Agreement. This Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the Closing solely as follows:

(a)            by

either Purchaser or Seller, by giving written notice of such termination to the other party, if the Closing shall not have occurred on

or prior to the date that is six (6) months from the date of this Agreement (the “Outside Date”); provided,

that, (i) if, as of such date, the conditions set forth in (A) Section 8.2(j) or (B) Section 8.1(b) (and,

in the case of this clause (B), the applicable statute, rule, regulation, judgment, decree, injunction or other Governmental Order relates

to, or is issued pursuant to a Law that pertains to, a Requisite Regulatory Approval), respectively, have not been satisfied as of the

Outside Date, then, unless Purchaser shall have provided written notice to Seller prior to the original Outside Date electing to forego

any extension, the Outside Date shall be further and automatically extended once for an additional three (3) months (becoming the

date that is nine (9) months from the date of this Agreement) provided, further, however, that Purchaser’s

and Seller’s right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 9.1(a) shall not be available, as applicable,

to (i) Purchaser, if Purchaser’s failure to fulfill any covenant or obligation under this Agreement has been the primary cause

of, or primarily resulted in, the failure of the Closing to occur on or before such date or (ii) Seller, if Parent’s or Seller’s

failure to fulfill any covenant or obligation under this Agreement has been the primary cause of, or primarily resulted in, the failure

of the Closing to occur on or before such date;

(b)            by

mutual written consent of Seller and Purchaser;

Seller or Purchaser, if there shall be in effect a final, nonappealable Governmental Order of a Governmental Entity having competent

jurisdiction restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the consummation of the Transactions; provided, however, that

the party seeking to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 9.1(c) shall be in compliance with its obligations

pursuant to Section 7.8 and Section 7.9 before asserting the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 9.1(c);

124

(d)            by

Purchaser if any Governmental Entity that must grant a Requisite Regulatory Approval has denied approval of the consummation of the Transactions

or imposed any Burdensome Condition, by final, non-appealable action of such Governmental Entity, unless the failure to obtain a Requisite

Regulatory Approval is primarily due to the failure of Purchaser to comply with the covenants and agreements of Purchaser set forth herein;

(e)            by

Purchaser, if (x) any of Parent or Seller has breached, violated or failed to perform any of its covenants, agreements or obligations

contained in this Agreement, or (y) there has been a breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty regarding any

Company or Seller contained in this Agreement, in either case, such that any of the conditions set forth in Section 8.2(a) or

Section 8.2(b) would not be satisfied (absent a waiver) if the Closing were to occur at such time, and such breach,

inaccuracy, violation or failure to perform, (i) has not been waived by Purchaser, and (ii) (A) is not capable of being

cured or (B) if capable of being cured, is not cured within the earlier of the date that is (1) thirty (30) calendar days after

receipt by Seller of written notice of such violation, failure to perform, breach or inaccuracy from Purchaser and (2) two (2) Business

Days prior to the Outside Date; provided, that the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 9.1(e) shall

not be available to Purchaser at any time that Purchaser is in breach of any of its representations, warranties, covenants, agreements

or obligations hereunder that would render any condition set forth in Section 8.3(a) or Section 8.3(b) not

to be satisfied, absent a waiver, if the Closing were to occur at such time;

(f)            by

Seller, if (x) Purchaser has breached, violated or failed to perform any of its covenants, agreements or obligations contained in

this Agreement, or (y) there has been a breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty of Purchaser contained in

this Agreement, in either case, such that any of the conditions set forth in Section 8.3(a) or Section 8.3(b) would

not be satisfied (absent a waiver) if the Closing were to occur at such time, and such breach, inaccuracy, violation or failure to perform,

(i) has not been waived by Seller, and (ii) (A) is not capable of being cured or (B) if capable of being cured, is

not cured within the earlier of the date that is (1) thirty (30) calendar days after receipt by Purchaser of written notice of such

violation, failure to perform, breach or inaccuracy from Seller and (2) two (2) Business Days prior to the Outside Date; provided,

that the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 9.1(f) shall not be available to Seller at any time

that any Company, Parent or Seller is in breach of any of its representations, warranties, covenants, agreements or obligations hereunder

that would render any condition set forth in Section 8.2(a) or Section 8.2(b) not to be satisfied,

absent a waiver, if the Closing were to occur at such time; or

(g)            by

Seller, if, subject to the proviso in Section 2.4(a), (i) all of the conditions set forth in Section 8.1

and Section 8.2 have been satisfied (other than those that, by their nature, are to be satisfied at the Closing, each of

which is capable of being satisfied at the Closing) or have been waived (in writing) by Purchaser, in each case, at the time the Closing

is required to have occurred in accordance with Section 2.4(a); (ii) Seller has irrevocably confirmed by notice to Purchaser

that all conditions set forth in Section 8.3 have been satisfied (other than those that, by their nature, are to be satisfied

at the Closing, each of which is capable of being satisfied at the Closing) or that Seller is willing to waive any unsatisfied conditions

in Section 8.3, and that each of Parent and Seller is ready, willing and able to consummate the Closing on the fifth (5th)

Business Day immediately following such notice; (iii) the Closing shall not have been consummated on the fifth (5th) Business Day

immediately following the delivery of such notice due solely to Purchaser’s failure to consummate the Closing; and (iv) each

of Parent and Seller stood ready, willing and able to consummate the Closing during the entirety of such five (5)-Business Day period

and Seller irrevocably confirmed such fact in writing to Purchaser on or prior to the end of such five (5)-Business Day period; provided,

that, notwithstanding anything in Section 9.1(a) to the contrary, neither Seller nor Purchaser shall be permitted to

terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1(a) during the five (5)-Business Day period following delivery of the

notice referred to in clause (ii) above.

125

Section 9.2            Procedure

Upon Termination. In the event of termination and abandonment by Seller or Purchaser, or both, pursuant to Section 9.1

(except Section 9.1(b)), written notice thereof shall be given to the other party or parties, and the Transactions shall

be abandoned, without further action by any of Seller or Purchaser.

Section 9.3            Effect

of Termination. In the event that this Agreement is validly terminated in accordance with Section 9.1 and the procedures

in Section 9.2, then (a) this Agreement shall terminate and become void and have no further force or effect, (b) each

of the parties shall be fully relieved and released of its duties and obligations arising under this Agreement, (c) such termination

shall be without liability, damages or obligations to Seller and its Affiliates, on the one hand, or Purchaser and its Affiliates (and

their respective Representatives), on the other hand, and (d) all of the transactions contemplated hereby shall be abandoned without

further actions by the parties hereto; provided that, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) no such termination

shall relieve any party hereto from liability for losses, damages, or obligations arising from (A) Fraud prior to such termination,

(B) solely in the case of Parent or Seller, any Willful Breach, or (C) solely in the case of Purchaser, the liabilities and

obligations set forth in Section 9.4; and (ii) the provisions of Section 7.2 (Publicity), Section 7.3

(Confidentiality), this Article IX (Termination), and Article XI (Miscellaneous) (together with any relevant

definitions which shall survive the termination hereof) shall remain in full force and effect and survive any termination of this Agreement

in accordance with its terms. For purposes of this Section 9.3, the term “Willful Breach” means a party’s

knowing and intentional material breach of any of its covenants or other agreements set forth in this Agreement, which material breach

constitutes, or is a consequence of, a purposeful act or failure to act by such party with the knowledge that the taking of such act

or failure to take such act would cause a material breach of this Agreement. Nothing in this Article IX shall be deemed to

impair the right of any party hereto to compel specific performance by any other party hereto of such other party’s obligations

hereunder prior to the valid termination hereof in accordance with its terms.

Section 9.4            Termination

Fee.

(a)            In

the event that Seller terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1(f) (but only if the result of a Willful Breach)

or Section 9.1(g), then Purchaser shall pay or cause to be paid to Seller a termination fee of $17,500,000 in cash (the “Termination

Fee”) by wire transfer of immediately available funds simultaneously with such termination so long as Seller has provided Purchaser

with wire instructions for such payment (or, otherwise, within one (1) Business Day following receipt of such wire instructions),

it being understood that in no event shall Purchaser be required to pay or cause to be paid the Termination Fee on more than one occasion.

Seller and Purchaser acknowledge and agree that the Losses that would be incurred by Seller as a result of a termination specified in

this Section 9.4(a) are difficult to estimate, and the Termination Fee represents a reasonable estimate of such Losses.

If Purchaser fails reasonably promptly to pay the amount due in accordance with this Section 9.4(a), and, in order to obtain

such payment, Seller commences an Action which results in a final and non-appealable judgment against Purchaser for the Termination Fee,

Purchaser shall reimburse Seller for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses actually incurred by Seller (including

reasonable and documented out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees and expenses) in connection with such Action, together with interest at

a rate per annum equal to the “prime rate” as published in The Wall Street Journal on the date on which such payment

was required to be made through the date that such payment was received.

126

(b)            Notwithstanding

anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, each of the parties expressly acknowledges and agrees that, in the event the Agreement

is terminated, Seller’s right to receive the Termination Fee, if and when payable, shall be the sole and exclusive monetary damages

remedy (whether in Contract or in tort, in Law or in equity, or granted by statute or otherwise) of Seller or any of its Affiliates against

Purchaser, any Purchaser Related Party or the Debt Financing Sources for any and all Liabilities in respect of, relating to or arising

out of this Agreement (or the abandonment or termination thereof for any reason or for no reason), the Transaction Agreements, the transactions

contemplated hereby and thereby, the Commitment Letters, the Limited Guarantee (or the abandonment or termination thereof for any reason

or for no reason) or the Transactions or a breach (whether a Willful Breach or otherwise) of any representation, warranty, covenant or

other agreement or otherwise in respect of this Agreement, the Transaction Agreements, the Commitment Letters or the Limited Guarantee

or any oral representation made or alleged to be made in connection herewith or therewith.

the termination of this Agreement, (i) none of the Purchaser Related Parties or the Debt Financing Sources shall have any Liability

or obligation to Seller or its Affiliates in respect of, relating to or arising out of this Agreement (or the abandonment or termination

thereof for any reason or for no reason), the Transaction Agreements, the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, the Commitment

Letters, the Limited Guarantee (or the abandonment or termination thereof for any reason or for no reason) or the transactions contemplated

thereby or a breach (whether a Willful Breach or otherwise) of any representation, warranty, covenant or other agreement or otherwise

in respect of this Agreement, the Transaction Agreements, the Commitment Letters or the Limited Guarantee or any oral representation

made or alleged to be made in connection herewith or therewith and (ii) Seller or any of its Affiliates shall not seek to recover

any monetary damages or seek any other remedy (whether by or through attempted piercing of the corporate veil and whether in Contract

or in tort, in Law or in equity, or granted by statute or otherwise) against the Purchaser Related Parties or the Debt Financing Sources

in respect of, relating to or arising out of this Agreement (or the abandonment or termination thereof for any reason or for no reason),

the Transaction Agreements, the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, the Commitment Letters, the Limited Guarantee (or the abandonment

or termination thereof for any reason or for no reason) or the transactions contemplated thereby or a breach (whether a Willful Breach

or otherwise) of any representation, warranty, covenant or other agreement or otherwise in respect of this Agreement, the Transaction

Agreements, the Commitment Letters or the Limited Guarantee or any oral representation made or alleged to be made in connection herewith

or therewith, in each case, other than payment of the Termination Fee, if due, by Purchaser to Seller pursuant to this Section 9.4.

For the avoidance of doubt, Seller may pursue a grant of specific performance or other equitable remedies to the extent permitted by

Section 11.12 and, if Seller does not bring such Action or if a court of competent jurisdiction does not grant Seller with

specific performance or equitable relief in a final order, judgment, injunction or decree, Seller may seek to terminate this Agreement

and pursue the payment of the Termination Fee pursuant to this Section 9.4; provided, that under no circumstances

shall Seller (or any other Person) be permitted or entitled to (A) terminate this Agreement while pursuing specific performance

or other equitable relief or (B) otherwise receive both a grant of specific performance of the consummation of the Closing pursuant

to Section 11.12 and the payment of the Termination Fee pursuant to this Section 9.4 in connection with this

Agreement or any termination of this Agreement. This Section 9.4 as it relates to the Debt Financing Sources shall survive

the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

(Brokers and Finders) (collectively, the “Purchaser Fundamental Representations”), in each case, shall survive for

128

(e)            For

purposes of clarity, except in the case of claims for Fraud, the survival period set forth in this Section 10.1 establishes

the time period during which any claim for indemnification pursuant to this Article X in respect of a breach of or misrepresentation

or inaccuracy in a representation, warranty, covenant or other agreement must be validly made and delivered in accordance with this Article X

and Section 11.4 prior to the expiration of the applicable survival period specified in this Section 10.1; provided,

however, any claim for indemnification in respect of such representation, warranty, covenant or other agreement that is so made

and delivered in accordance with this Article X and Section 11.4 prior to the expiration of the applicable period

shall continue to survive the expiration of the applicable survival period for purposes of resolving such claim, until such time as such

claim is fully and finally resolved. Except for the representations, warranties, covenants or other agreements set forth in any of Sections 10.1(a),

10.1(b), 10.1(c) or 10.1(d), and other than in the case of Fraud, none of the representations, warranties, covenants

or other agreements of Purchaser, the Companies, and Seller in this Agreement or in any certificate delivered pursuant hereto shall survive

the Closing for any purpose and no claims for breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or other agreement (whether in contract,

tort or law) may be made after the Closing with respect to any such representations, warranties, covenants or other agreements. Notwithstanding

anything to the contrary in this Agreement (including this Article X), there shall be no limitation on a claim for Fraud.

Section 10.2           Purchaser

(a)            Except

for the representations and warranties contained in Article III (as modified by the Seller Disclosure Schedule), Article IV

(as modified by the Finance Company Disclosure Schedule), Article V (as modified by the Reinsurance Company Disclosure Schedule)

and Section 11.19(c) or in the Seller Certificate or any certificate delivered by any Company pursuant to this Agreement,

and subject to compliance of Parent and Seller with its respective covenants, obligations and other agreements set forth in this Agreement,

Purchaser is acquiring the Business “as is, where is”.

(b)            Except

for the representations and warranties expressly set forth in Article III, Article IV, Article V (as

modified by any of the Seller Disclosure Schedule, the Finance Company Disclosure Schedule, or the Reinsurance Company Disclosure Schedule,

as applicable, in accordance with this Agreement) or in Section 11.19(c) (Parent Guarantee) or the Seller Certificate

or any certificate delivered by any Company pursuant to this Agreement: (i) it is understood and Purchaser acknowledges that any

cost estimates, projections, forecasts or other predictions provided to Purchaser are not and shall not be deemed to be or to include

representations and warranties of Seller, the Companies, or its Affiliates or other Representatives or any other Person, and Purchaser

acknowledges and agrees, on its own behalf and on behalf of its Affiliates, that (A) such projections or forecasts are being provided

solely for the convenience of Purchaser to facilitate its own independent investigation of the Companies, (B) there are uncertainties

inherent in attempting to make such projections or forecasts, (C) Purchaser may be familiar with such uncertainties and (D) Purchaser

has made its own evaluation of the adequacy and accuracy of all projections or forecasts (including the reasonableness of the underlying

assumptions); and (ii) Purchaser acknowledges and agrees, in each case on behalf of itself and its Affiliates and other Representatives,

that it has conducted its own independent investigation of the condition, operations and businesses of the Companies and, in making its

determination to proceed with the Share Purchase, Purchaser has evaluated such documents and information as it has deemed necessary and

has relied solely on the results of its own independent investigation and the representations and warranties expressly set forth in Article III,

Article IV, Article V (each as modified by either the Seller Disclosure Schedule, the Reinsurance Company Disclosure

Schedule, or the Finance Company Disclosure Schedule, as applicable, in accordance with this Agreement) or in Section 11.19(c) (Parent

129

Section 10.3           Legal

Waiver.

(a)            From

and effective after the Closing, other than in connection with breaches or inaccuracies of the Seller Fundamental Representations, and

without limiting any claim for Fraud, Purchaser’s sole recourse for any breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty contained

in this Agreement will be the R&W Policy. Except for Purchaser Non-Released Claims, from and effective after the Closing, Purchaser

shall not, and shall cause its controlled Affiliates (including the Companies), and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause

their respective directors, managers, members, partners, shareholders, optionholders, officers and employees (collectively, the “Purchaser

Parties”) to not, file any claim it may have against Seller, any of Seller’s Affiliates, Seller’s or Seller’s

Affiliates’ respective past, present or future equityholders, members, general or limited partners, shareholders, investors, managers,

directors, officers, controlling persons, employees, agents, trustees and their respective representatives, predecessors, heirs, successors

and assigns (each, a “Seller Related Party,” and, collectively, the “Seller Related Parties”), solely

to the extent relating to the operation of the Companies or their respective businesses or relating to the subject matter of this Agreement,

in each case, which arose or occurred prior to the Closing. In furtherance of the foregoing and except with respect to the Purchaser Non-Released

Claims, from and after Closing, Purchaser, for itself and (to the extent not legally prohibited) for the Purchaser Related Parties, hereby

expressly irrevocably waives, from and effective after the Closing, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law, any and all

rights, claims and causes of action it may have against Seller or any Seller Related Party relating to the operation of the Companies

or their respective businesses or relating to the subject matter of this Agreement, in each case, which arose or occurred prior to the

Closing.

(b)            Except

for rights, obligations, and claims or causes of action (whether in contract or tort, in law or in equity, or granted by statute or otherwise)

that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to, (i) this Agreement, any other Transaction Agreement or any of the provisions set

forth herein or therein, (ii) indemnification, exculpation or advancement of expenses to which Seller or its Affiliates may be entitled

as a result of such Person’s interest in or service as a manager, director, officer, employee, advisor, consultant or other representative

of the Companies (excluding any claims or causes of action (whether in contract or tort, in law or in equity, or granted by statute or

otherwise) that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to a Purchaser Non-Released Claim), and/or (iii) involving a claim for

Fraud against Purchaser (clauses (i) through (iii) are collectively referred to as the “Seller Non-Released Claims”),

from and effective after the Closing, each of Parent and Seller shall not, and shall cause its respective controlled Affiliates, and its

and their respective Seller Related Parties to not, file any claims or causes of action (whether in contract or tort, in law or in equity,

or granted by statute or otherwise) that such Person may have against Purchaser or any Purchaser Related Party, to the extent relating

to the operation of the Companies or their respective businesses or relating to the subject matter of this Agreement. In furtherance of

the foregoing and except with respect to the Seller Non-Released Claims, from and after Closing, each of Parent and Seller, for itself

and (to the extent not legally prohibited) for the Seller Related Parties, hereby expressly waives, from and effective after the Closing,

to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law, any and all rights, claims and causes of action it may have against Purchaser or

any Purchaser Related Party relating to the operation of the Companies or their respective businesses or relating to the subject matter

of this Agreement, in each case, which arose or occurred prior to Closing (whether arising under, or based upon, any Law (including common

law) or otherwise (including any right, whether arising at Law or in equity, to seek indemnification, contribution, cost recovery, damages

or any other recourse or remedy, including as may arise under common law)).

130

Section 10.4           Indemnification

Obligations.

(a)            Indemnification

by Seller. From and after Closing, Seller shall indemnify, defend, save, hold and keep harmless Purchaser, the Companies, each of

their respective current and future affiliates, and each of their respective current and future officers, directors, managers, employees,

agents, representatives, stockholders, equity holders, partners, lenders, successors and permitted assigns (each a “Purchaser

Indemnified Party” and, collectively, the “Purchaser Indemnified Parties”; provided, that, for purposes

of clarity, neither Seller nor any Person serving in the capacity as a Seller Related Party following Closing is to be deemed a Purchaser

Indemnified Party) from and against, and shall pay on behalf of or reimburse such Purchaser Indemnified Parties as and when incurred for,

any and all Losses (including any Losses that relate to such first-party Action or Third Party Claim) that any such Purchaser Indemnified

Party directly or indirectly suffers or sustains, or otherwise directly or indirectly becomes subject to, as a result of, in connection

with, relating or incidental to, or by virtue of:

(i)            any

inaccuracy or breach of any representation and warranty set forth in any Seller Fundamental Representation, as of the date of this Agreement

or as of the Closing Date (as such breach or inaccuracy is determined without any qualification or exception therein referring to the

terms “material”, “materiality”, “in all material respects” or “Material Adverse Effect”,

which shall be disregarded);

(ii)           any

nonfulfillment or breach of any covenant, or agreement by Parent and/or Seller under this Agreement;

(iii)          any

Indebtedness or Transaction Expenses to the extent not included in the final calculation of the Purchase Price as finally determined in

accordance with Section 2.3 of this Agreement;

(iv)          Section 280G

of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder, including the disallowance of any Tax deductions otherwise available to the Companies

and the amount of any excise tax imposed upon any “disqualified individual” (within the meaning of Section 280G of the

Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder);

131

(v)           the

matters described on Schedule 10.4(a)(v);

(vi)          any

Taxes imposed on or with respect to any consolidated, combined, affiliated or unitary group of which any Company (or any predecessor thereof)

was a member on or prior to the Closing Date, including any such liability arising under Treasury Regulations Section 1.1502-6 (or

any analogous provision of state, local or non-U.S. Law) by reason of any Company having been a member of such group for any taxable period

(or portion thereof) ending on or before the Closing Date;

(vii)         any

Excluded Liability; or

(viii)        any

Fraud by, or on behalf of, Parent, Seller or the Companies.

(b)            Indemnification

by Purchaser. From and after Closing, Purchaser shall indemnify, defend, save and keep harmless Seller, its controlled Affiliates,

and each of their respective officers, directors, managers, employees, stockholders, agents, representatives, successors and permitted

assigns (collectively, the “Seller Indemnified Parties”) from and against, and shall pay on behalf of or reimburse

such Seller Indemnified Parties as and when incurred for, any and all Losses (including such Losses that relate to any such first-party

Action or Third Party Claim) that any such Seller Indemnified Party directly or indirectly suffers, sustains or directly or indirectly

becomes subject to, as the result of, in connection with, relating or incidental to, or by virtue of:

(i)            any

inaccuracy or breach of the representations and warranties set forth in any Purchaser Fundamental Representation, as of the date of this

Agreement or as of the Closing Date; and/or

(ii)            any

nonfulfillment or breach of any covenant or agreement by Purchaser or, solely to the extent occurring after the Closing, the Companies

under this Agreement.

of Indemnification Payment. If an Indemnified Party’s claim under this Article X may be properly characterized in

multiple ways in accordance with this Article X such that such claim may or may not be subject to different limitations depending

on such characterization, then such Indemnified Party shall have the right to characterize such claim in a manner that maximizes the recovery

and time to assert such claim permitted in accordance with this Article X.

(d)            Limitation

on Indemnification Obligations.

(i)            Except

for claims based on Fraud, the aggregate amount of all Losses for which an Indemnifying Party shall be liable pursuant to Section 10.4(a)(i) shall

not exceed an amount equal to the Purchase Price (net of any actual recovery under the R&W Policy solely to the extent such recovery

pertains to such claim under Section 10.4(a)(i)).

(ii)            Except

for claims based on Fraud, Seller shall not be liable to Purchaser Indemnified Parties for indemnification under Section 10.4(a)(i) and

Section 10.4(a)(iv) unless and until the aggregate amount of all Losses in respect of indemnification under Section 10.4(a)(i) and

Section 10.4(a)(iv) exceeds $530,000 (the “Basket”), after which point such Basket is exceeded, the

Purchaser Indemnified Parties shall, subject to the order of indemnity recourse set forth in Section 10.4(e), be entitled

to recover only such Losses in excess of the Basket.

132

(e)            Order

of Indemnity Recourse. Subject to the applicable limitations on liability in this Article X, and except in respect of

claims based on Fraud, any indemnifiable Losses arising out of or under Section 10.4(a)(i) shall be recoverable by the

applicable Purchaser Indemnified Party, after the retention under the R&W Policy is exceeded, (i) first, if the R&W Policy

covers such Loss and coverage thereunder is available, from the insurer under the R&W Policy, and (ii) second, if (and to the

extent) recoveries and amounts available to be claimed under the R&W Policy have been exhausted, or recovery under the R&W Policy

is otherwise not available, then directly from Seller (subject to the limitations described in Section 10.4(d) (if applicable)).

(f)            Certain

Procedures. The party making a claim under this Section 10.4 is referred to as the “Indemnified Party”,

and the party against whom such claims are asserted under this Section 10.4 is referred to as the “Indemnifying Party”.

(i)            Direct

Claims and Third Party Claims. Any Action by an Indemnified Party on account of a Loss that does not result from a Third Party Claim

(such non-Third Party Claim, a “Direct Claim”) may be asserted by the Indemnified Party by giving the Indemnifying

Party reasonably prompt written notice thereof (but, to the extent applicable, in any event, such Indemnified Party shall use commercially

reasonable efforts to provide such notice no later than thirty (30) days of Knowledge of Purchaser (in respect of a claim brought against

a Purchaser Indemnified Party) or Knowledge of Seller (in respect of a claim brought against a Seller Indemnified Party), as applicable,

that the facts or circumstances underlying such claim would give rise to a viable Direct Claim); provided, however, that

the failure to give such prompt written notice shall not impair the right of the Indemnified Party to bring a claim or to assert, pursue,

or recover Losses (including damages) with respect to such Direct Claim or otherwise enforce its rights hereunder or otherwise relieve

the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations, except to the extent (and solely to such extent) that the Indemnifying Party

is actually and materially prejudiced thereby¸ with the burden of proving such actual and material prejudice being on the applicable

Indemnifying Party. If any third party provides written notice to the Indemnified Party with respect to any matter which may give rise

to a claim for indemnification (a “Third Party Claim”) against the Indemnifying Party under this Section 10.4,

then the Indemnified Party shall notify the Indemnifying Party reasonably promptly thereof in writing (but, to the extent applicable,

in any event, such Indemnified Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide such notice no later than thirty (30) days of

Knowledge of Purchaser (in respect of a claim brought against a Purchaser Indemnified Party) or Knowledge of Seller (in respect of a claim

brought against a Seller Indemnified Party), as applicable, that the facts or circumstances underlying such claim would give rise to a

viable Third Party Claim); provided that the Indemnified Party’s failure to give such notice within such thirty (30)-day

period, or, if applicable, to promptly thereafter provide all material updates and correspondence, shall not relieve the Indemnifying

Party from any obligation hereunder except to the extent that the defense, settlement or resolution of such claim by the Indemnifying

Party is actually and materially prejudiced thereby, with the burden of proving such actual and material prejudice being on the applicable

Indemnifying Party. All notices given pursuant to this Section 10.4(f)(i) in respect of a Third Party Claim shall describe

with reasonable specificity the Indemnified Party’s perspective as to the nature of the claim, the liability asserted in such Third

Party Claim (to the extent then actually known) and the basis of the Indemnified Party’s claim for indemnification and copies of

any written demand upon which asserted liability is based (if any). The Indemnified Party shall promptly (and in any event within five

(5) Business Days) deliver to the Indemnifying Party copies of all material notices, pleadings, correspondence and other documents

received or sent in connection with such Third Party Claim, if applicable.

133

(ii)            Following

receipt of notice in accordance with Section 10.4(f)(i) (other than a notice of a Third Party Claim against the Indemnified

Party, in which case Section 10.4(f)(iii) below shall apply), the Indemnifying Party shall have thirty (30) days from

the date it receives such notice (the “Dispute Period”) to reasonably investigate the claim. If the Indemnifying Party

disagrees in good faith with the validity or amount of all or a portion of such claim made by the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying

Party shall deliver to the Indemnified Party written notice thereof providing the details of the basis of why such claim is being disputed

(the “Dispute Notice”) prior to the expiration of the Dispute Period. If no qualifying Dispute Notice is received by

the Indemnified Party within the Dispute Period, then such claim shall be conclusively determined in the Indemnified Party’s favor

for all purposes under this Agreement, and the Indemnified Party shall be indemnified for the amount of indemnifiable Losses stated in

the claim notice. If a Dispute Notice is received by the Indemnified Party within the Dispute Period and the Indemnified Party and the

Indemnifying Party do not agree to the validity and/or amount of such disputed claim, no payment shall be made with respect to the portion

of such dispute claim until such disputed claim is resolved in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, whether by adjudication of

such matter, agreement between the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party, or otherwise; for avoidance of doubt, payment shall be

made, however, with respect to any portion of such claim that is not disputed.

(iii)            Within

thirty (30) days following the Indemnified Party giving notice of a Third Party Claim to the Indemnifying Party pursuant to Section 10.4(f)(i),

the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to notify in writing the Indemnified Party of the Indemnifying Party’s election to assume

control of the defense of such Third Party Claim and to select counsel of its choice at the Indemnifying Party’s sole cost and expense;

provided, that the Indemnifying Party fully acknowledges and agrees in writing to its indemnification obligations to the Indemnified Party

with respect to such Third Party Claim and promptly reimburses or agrees to reimburse the Indemnified Party for its reasonable and documented

costs and expenses incurred up to such assumption of control. In such case, the Indemnified Party may participate in the defense of such

Third Party Claim; provided, however, that following the Indemnifying Party’s assumption of the defense of such Third

Party Claim, all legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Party shall be borne by the Indemnified Party unless

the Indemnified Party has been advised in writing by outside counsel of nationally recognized standing that there are one or more legal

or equitable defenses available to the Indemnified Party that are different from or in addition to those available to the Indemnifying

Party and, in the reasonable advice of such counsel to the Indemnified Party, counsel for the Indemnifying Party should not represent

the interests of the Indemnified Party because such interests are in conflict with those of the Indemnifying Party under the rules of

professional conduct and cannot be waived, in which case the Indemnified Party shall be indemnified for the reasonable and documented

fees and expenses of a single law firm (and local counsel) to the Indemnified Party.

134

(iv)            If

the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall not settle or consent to judgment with

respect to such Third Party Claim without the written consent of each of (A) the Indemnified Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably

withheld, conditioned or delayed), or (B) the insurer under the R&W Policy if a settlement or consent to judgment is in respect

of a Third Party Claim where coverage is available under the R&W Policy and the consent of the insurer under the R&W Policy is

required to be obtained in connection with such settlement or consent to judgment under the R&W Policy’s terms and conditions;

provided, however, if a firm offer is made to settle a Third Party Claim without leading to liability or the creation of

a financial or other obligation on the part of the Indemnified Party and provides, in customary form, for the unconditional release of

each Indemnified Party from all liabilities and obligations relating to such Third Party Claim, including any allegations or claims that

could have been brought, and the Indemnifying Party desires to accept and agree to such offer, and Indemnified Party fails to consent

to such firm offer within ten (10) days after its receipt of written notice of such settlement offer, the Indemnified Party may continue

to contest or defend such Third Party Claim and in such event, the maximum liability of the Indemnifying Party as to such Third Party

Claim shall not exceed the amount of such settlement offer.

(v)            Notwithstanding

anything to the contrary herein, without Purchaser’s prior written consent, the Indemnifying Party shall (A) not be entitled

to assume the administration and defense of any Third Party Claim, (B) not enter into the settlement of a Third Party Claim, and

(C) pay the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel retained by the Indemnified Party, upon the occurrence of any of the following

circumstances: (1) if such Third Party Claim involves any Governmental Entity or former shareholder (excluding Seller), client, customer,

vendor, channel partner, supplier, or other key business partner, in each case, of any Company, (2) if the Indemnifying Party has

failed to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim within thirty (30) days of the Indemnified Party’s delivery of written notice

of such Third Party Claim to the Indemnifying Party, (3) if such Third Party Claim involves criminal or quasi-criminal allegations,

(4) if such Third Party Claim includes a claim for injunctive relief or specific performance reasonably likely to materially and

adversely impact Purchaser, any Company or any of their respective Affiliates, (5) the Third Party Claim, if adversely determined,

would impair in any material respect the financial condition, business, or operations of Purchaser, the Companies or any of their respective

Affiliates, or (6) the Indemnified Party is seeking recovery under, or a reduction in the retention under, the R&W Policy or

any other insurance policy in respect of such claim. If an Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification against a Third Party Claim,

and the Indemnifying Party fails to accept a tender of the defense of a Third Party Claim pursuant to this Section 10.4(f) or

otherwise is not granted the right by this Section 10.4(f) to assume the administration and defense of a Third Party

Claim, the Indemnified Party shall have the right, without prejudice to its right of indemnification hereunder, in a commercially reasonable

manner, to contest, defend and litigate such Third Party Claim, and may settle such Third Party Claim, either before or after the initiation

of litigation, at such time and upon such terms as the Indemnified Party deems fair and reasonable; provided that, without limiting

the Indemnifying Party’s obligations under this Agreement and the rights to indemnification of any Indemnified Party under this

Agreement, the Indemnified Party uses commercially reasonable efforts to (x) notify the Indemnifying Party of the Indemnified Party’s

intention to settle such claim subject to any confidentiality obligations of the Indemnified Party in relation to such settlement and

(y) not admit to any public acknowledgement of fault or wrongdoing of the Indemnifying Party without the written consent of the Indemnifying

Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and shall in no event impair the ability to enter into

such settlement (with the parties acting reasonably)). If, pursuant to the preceding sentence, the Indemnified Party so contests, defends,

litigates or settles a Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall advance or reimburse the Indemnified Party for all reasonable attorneys’

fees and other documented expenses incurred from time to time by the Indemnified Party in connection with contesting, defending, litigating

or settling such Third Party Claim, promptly following the presentation to the Indemnifying Party of itemized bills for such attorneys’

fees and other expenses. The Indemnified Party shall repay to the Indemnifying Party any amounts so advanced or reimbursed to the extent

it is finally determined that the Indemnified Party was not entitled to indemnification hereunder.

135

(vi)          The

Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to render to each other such assistance as may

reasonably be required of each other in order to enable the proper and adequate defense of any Third Party Claim. To the extent that the

Indemnified Party or the Indemnifying Party does not participate in the defense of a particular Third Party Claim, the party so proceeding

with such Third Party Claim shall keep the other party reasonably informed of all material developments and events relating to such Third

Party Claim. No Indemnified Party shall settle or consent to judgment with respect to any Third Party Claim to the extent made under Section 10.4(a)(i) without

the written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(vii)         Once

a Loss (or a portion thereof) is agreed to by the Indemnifying Party or finally adjudicated to be payable pursuant to this Agreement,

the Indemnifying Party shall satisfy its obligations with respect to such Loss (or such portion thereof) within thirty (30) calendar days

of such agreement or final adjudication by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account designated by the Indemnified Party

or such other applicable Person.

(g)            Determination

of Loss Amount and Indemnification Obligations.

(i)            Purchaser

agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to seek recovery available under the R&W Policy for any Loss covered under the R&W Policy,

including, but not limited to, contesting potentially wrongful denial of claims, which efforts shall not include initiating Action to

recover under the R&W Policy. The amount of any Loss incurred or sustained by an Indemnified Party and subject to indemnification

under Section 10.4(a)(i) shall be calculated net of any insurance proceeds (after taking into account any Insurance Costs

(as defined below)), indemnity payments, settlements or other similar recoveries actually received by the Indemnified Party from any third

party with respect to such Loss (except for any payments received under the R&W Policy with respect to such Loss). In the event the

Indemnified Party actually receives any insurance proceeds, after the applicable indemnification payment is made by the Indemnifying Party

to it with respect to such Loss (except for any payments received under the R&W Policy with respect to such Loss provided that

such payments received do not reflect a double recovery for the same Losses), then the Indemnified Party shall promptly pay to the Indemnifying

Party the amount (the “Indemnification Excess Amount”) by which (A) such recovery (in each case, net of costs

and expenses of enforcement and collection, deductibles and retro-premium adjustments, if applicable (collectively, the “Insurance

Costs”)) plus the aggregate amount paid by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party with respect to such Loss exceeds

(B) the aggregate amount of such Loss of the Indemnified Party (determined without giving effect to the reduction provisions of the

preceding sentence); provided that, in no event shall such Indemnification Excess Amount exceed the indemnification amount previously

so paid by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party in respect of the applicable indemnified Losses.

136

(ii)            Each

Indemnified Party shall, and shall cause its applicable controlled Affiliates to, use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate any

Loss upon the Knowledge of Purchaser (in the case of a Purchaser Indemnified Party) or Knowledge of Seller (in the case of a Seller Indemnified

Party), as applicable, of any event or circumstance that would be reasonably expected to give rise to indemnification obligations under

Section 10.4(a)(i) or Section 10.4(b)(i), as applicable.

(h)            Exclusive

Remedy. Except for equitable remedies to the extent available, from and after the Closing, the rights and obligations set forth in

this Section 10.4 shall be the sole and exclusive monetary remedy of the Indemnified Parties arising under, or resulting from,

this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereunder, regardless of the legal theory under which such remedies may be sought to

be imposed, whether sounding in contract or tort, whether in law or in equity, or otherwise, and, in furtherance thereof (but not in limitation

of any exception or qualification set forth in this Section 10.4(h)), (i) no party hereto shall otherwise be liable or

responsible in any manner whatsoever to any other party for a breach of this Agreement or in connection with any of the transactions contemplated

hereunder and (ii) each party hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law, any and all rights, claims and

causes of action for any breach of any representation or warranty or any covenants and agreements that by their terms do not apply, or

are not to be performed, in whole or in part, at or after the Closing; provided, that nothing in this Article X (including

this Section 10.4(h)), shall in any way limit, modify or otherwise restrict any rights, obligations, claims or causes of action

(whether in contract or tort, in law or in equity, or granted by statute or otherwise) that may be based upon, arise out of or relate

to any other Transaction Agreement, the R&W Policy, Section 2.3, any claims for indemnification pursuant to this Section 10.4,

and/or for claims based on Fraud.

(i)            Limitations

on Certain Damages. Seller shall not be liable under this Section 10.4 for any Losses that constitute punitive damages,

except to the extent that such Losses are awarded by a judgment or order against or part of a settlement involving an Indemnified Party

pursuant to a Third Party Claim. For the avoidance of doubt, solely to the extent necessary to avoid double recovery, no Indemnified Party

shall be entitled to any duplicate indemnification payment actually received by the Indemnified Party more than once with respect to the

same loss where the same set of facts qualifies under more than one provision entitling an Indemnified Party to a claim or remedy under

this Agreement.

(j)            Knowledge.

An Indemnified Party’s rights contained in this Section 10.4 are part of the basis of the bargain contemplated by this

Agreement, and such rights and remedies that may be exercised by an Indemnified Party under this Section 10.4 are not to be

waived, limited or otherwise affected (i) by or as a result of (and such Indemnified Party will be deemed to have relied upon such

matters notwithstanding) any alleged or actual knowledge on the part of any Indemnified Party or any of their Representatives (regardless

of whether obtained through any investigation by any Indemnified Party or any Representative of any Indemnified Party or through disclosure

by Parent, Seller or any other Person, and regardless of whether such knowledge was obtained before or after the execution and delivery

of this Agreement) or (ii) by reason of any alleged or actual fact that an Indemnified Party or any of its Representatives knew or

should have known of the underlying matter or that any representation or warranty is or might be inaccurate or untrue.

137

(k)            Parties

in Interest. The Indemnified Parties shall be express third-party beneficiaries of this Section 10.4; provided

that, for administrative convenience of the parties, unless Seller is the Indemnified Party, only Purchaser or its Affiliates (on behalf

of the Indemnified Parties) may submit a notice of a Third Party Claim (on behalf of itself or another Indemnified Party) in accordance

with the terms of this Section 10.4.

Section 10.5           Characterization

of Indemnification Payment. Any indemnification payment made under this Agreement shall be characterized for all applicable Tax purposes

as an adjustment to the Purchase Price except as otherwise required by applicable Law.

Article XI

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 11.1           Assignment;

Binding Effect. This Agreement, and the rights and obligations hereunder, are not assignable by any party hereto unless such assignment

is consented to in writing by the other parties hereto and, subject to the preceding clause, this Agreement and all the provisions hereof

shall be binding upon, and shall be enforceable and inure to the benefit of, the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted

assigns; provided, however, Purchaser or any of its Affiliates may (i) assign any or all of its rights and interests

hereunder to one or more of its Affiliates and designate one or more of its Affiliates to perform its obligations hereunder, so long

as Purchaser is not relieved of any liability hereunder, and (ii) assign or delegate any of its rights or interests, but not its

obligations, under this Agreement to any Debt Financing Source pursuant to the terms of the Debt Financing for purposes of creating a

security interest herein or otherwise assigning as collateral in respect of the Debt Financing, provided that Purchaser shall

remain liable for its duties and obligations under this Agreement. Any assignment or transfer that is not in compliance with the above

shall be null and void. For purposes of clarity, and without limiting the generality of the Purchaser’s rights above, Purchaser

may assign its rights, and delegate its obligations, under this Agreement to such Persons identified in the Transaction Steps in furtherance

of the Restructuring Transactions, and Parent and Seller will, and will cause their applicable Affiliates to, reasonably cooperate with

Purchaser in connection with such assignment or delegation.

that any such Action or Related Claim brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum or that such party is not subject

agree (A) that any legal proceeding, whether in law or in equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise, involving the Debt Financing

Sources arising out of, or relating to, this Agreement, the Debt Financing or the performance of services thereunder or related thereto

will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of any state or federal court sitting in the State of New York in the borough of Manhattan

which any of them 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 proceeding in any such court; (E) any such legal proceeding will be governed and construed in accordance with the

laws of the State of New York; and (F) agrees that no Debt Financing Sources shall be subject to any special, consequential, punitive

or indirect damages or damages of a tortious nature.

COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE EACH SUCH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT

PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHTS SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE TO A JURY TRIAL WITH RESPECT TO ANY ACTION OR RELATED CLAIM. EACH PARTY

Section 11.5           Headings.

The headings contained in this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not be considered in interpreting or construing

any of the provisions contained in this Agreement.

Section 11.6           Fees

Section 11.7           Entire

Agreement. This Agreement (including the Exhibits, Annexes and Schedules), together with the other Transaction Agreements,

constitute the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and, except as explicitly set forth

herein, supersede all prior agreements and understandings between the parties with respect to such subject matter.

Section 11.8           Interpretation.

item or “under” such item or any similar relationship regarding such item;

(vi)          the

word “extent” in the phrase “to the extent” shall mean the degree to which a subject or other thing extends,

and such phrase shall not mean simply “if”;

covenant requiring an action of Parent or Seller to take, or omit to take, an action, or to cause any other Person to take an action,

shall be deemed an obligation of Parent or Seller, as applicable, to take such action, or, if applicable, cause its appropriate Affiliate

to take such action; and

(viii)        any

Governmental Entity includes any successor to that Governmental Entity.

(b)            The

inclusion of any information in any Disclosure Schedule shall not be deemed to be an admission or acknowledgment, in and of itself, that

such information is required by the terms hereof to be disclosed, is material or has resulted in or is reasonably likely to result in

a Material Adverse Effect on the disclosing party or its Subsidiaries.

words “hereby”, “herein”, “hereof”, “hereunder” and similar terms refer to this Agreement

as a whole and not only to any specific Section, Article or other subdivision in which any such terms may be employed.

(d)            The

words “include”, “includes”, “including” and their syntactical variants are to be deemed followed

by the words “without limitation”, “but is not limited to” and corresponding syntactical variant expressions.

pronouns will be deemed to refer to the feminine, masculine or neuter, singular or plural, as the identity of the Person referred to

may require.

(f)            The

to “dollar”, “dollars” and “$” mean the lawful currency of the United States of America.

(j)            A

defined term has its defined meaning throughout this Agreement, regardless of whether it appears before or after the place in this Agreement

where it is defined, including in any Exhibit, Annex, Schedule or Disclosure Schedule.

(k)            If

the last day for the giving of any notice or the performance of any act required or permitted under this Agreement is a day that is not

a Business Day, then the time for the giving of such notice or the performance of such action shall be extended to the next succeeding

Business Day.

(l)            All

references in this Agreement to a number of days are to such number of calendar days unless Business Days are specified.

(m)            This

Agreement is the product of joint negotiation and drafting by the parties, each of which is sophisticated and had the assistance of counsel

and other advisers who have carefully negotiated the provisions hereof. The parties intend that this Agreement is not construed more

strictly with regard to one party than with regard to the other, and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring

any party by virtue of the authorship of any provision of this Agreement (including under any Laws or other rules relating to the

interpretation of contracts).

(n)            No

provision of this Agreement is to be construed to require, directly or indirectly, any Person to take any action, or omit to take any

action, to the extent such action or omission would violate applicable Law.

(o)            The

parties agree that changes from earlier drafts to the final version of this Agreement do not necessarily imply that the party agreeing

to such change is agreeing to a change in meaning (as the party agreeing to such change may believe the change is stylistic and non-substantive);

consequently, no presumption should exist by virtue of a change from a prior draft.

(p)            Reference

to “other party” or “other parties” hereto when derived from Parent or Seller shall mean Purchaser and shall

mean Seller when derived from Purchaser.

(q)            References

(including email and electronic media) in a visible form.

(s)            For

the avoidance of doubt, any reference to a “Company” or the “Business” herein shall be a reference to a Company

or Business, as applicable, as constituted and in effect prior to and following the Restructuring Transactions, unless otherwise specified.

143

Section 11.9           Waiver

and Amendment; Remedies Cumulative. Unless otherwise provided herein, the rights and remedies of the parties to this Agreement are

cumulative and not alternative. Any provision of this Agreement may be amended or waived if, and only if, such amendment or waiver is

in writing and signed, in the case of an amendment, by the parties hereto, or in the case of a waiver, by the party or parties against

whom the waiver is to be effective. No failure or delay by any party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate

as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of

any other right, power or privilege. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law, (a) no claim or right arising out of this

Agreement can be discharged by one party, in whole or in part, by a waiver or renunciation of the claim or right of a party unless in

writing signed by such party waiving or renouncing such right, (b) no waiver that may be given by a party will be applicable except

in the specific instance for which it is given and (c) no notice to or demand on one party will be deemed to be a waiver of any

obligation of that party or of the right of the party giving such notice or demand to take further action without notice or demand as

provided in this Agreement; provided, however, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, (i) Sections 7.18(e) and

this Section 11.9 (or any other provision of this Agreement to the extent a waiver of such provision would modify the substance

of the foregoing) may not be waived, in whole or in part, in a manner adverse to any of the Debt Financing Sources without the prior

written consent of the adversely affected Debt Financing Sources and (ii) any modification, waiver or termination of this Section 11.9

or Sections 7.18(e), 11.1, 11.2, 11.3, 11.11 or the definition of “Debt Financing Sources”

(or any other provision of this Agreement to the extent such modification, waiver or termination would modify the substance of such Sections

or such definition) that is adverse to any Debt Financing Sources will not be effective without the prior written consent of such Debt

Financing Sources.

Section 11.10           Counterparts.

This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, including by means of e-mail in “portable document format”

(.pdf) form, each of which will be deemed to be an original copy of this Agreement and all of which, when taken together, will be deemed

to constitute one and the same agreement.

Section 11.11           Third-Party

Beneficiaries. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, only the parties hereto

and their respective successors and permitted assigns, except to the extent expressly set forth otherwise in this Agreement (including

provisions benefiting (a) directors, managers, officers, employees and pre-Closing equityholder(s) contained in Section 7.10,

(b) the Purchaser Related Parties, with respect to Section 7.28, who may directly enforce the provisions of Section 7.28,

of Section 7.3(d) and Section 7.18(e), (d) the Purchaser Related Parties, with respect to Section 10.3(b) and

Section 11.17, who may directly enforce the provisions of Section 10.3(b) and Section 11.17,

(e) the Purchaser Indemnified Parties, with respect to Section 10.4(a), who may directly enforce the provisions of Section 10.4(a),

and the Seller Indemnified Parties, with respect to Section 10.4(b), who may directly enforce the provisions of Section 10.4(b))

and (f) this Section 11.11). Except as provided in the foregoing sentence, nothing herein, express or implied, is intended

to or shall confer upon any other Person any right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement.

The provisions of Sections 7.5(a), Section 7.18(e), Section 11.1, Section 11.2, Section 11.3,

or Section 11.9 are intended to benefit and shall be enforceable against all parties to this Agreement by each Debt Financing

Source.

144

Section 11.12           Specific

Performance.

(a)            The

parties hereto agree that, if any of the provisions of this Agreement were not to be performed as required by their specific terms or

were to be otherwise breached, irreparable damage will occur, no adequate remedy at law would exist and damages, even if available, would

be difficult to determine, and that the parties hereto, prior to termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 9.1,

shall be entitled, without the necessity of posting a bond or other security, to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches, and

to specific performance and other equitable relief of the terms, of this Agreement, in addition to any other remedy at law or equity,

without proof of actual damages or irreparable harm, to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and

provisions of this Agreement, this being in addition to any other remedy to which such party is entitled at law or in equity. Each party

further agrees not to assert (i) that a remedy of specific enforcement is unenforceable, invalid, contrary to Law or inequitable

for any reason, nor to assert that a remedy of monetary damages would provide an adequate remedy for any breach hereof and (ii) that

specific performance by or injunctive relief against such party will not cause any undue hardship to such party.

(b)            Notwithstanding

anything in this Agreement to the contrary (including other provisions of this Section 11.12), or in the Equity Commitment

Letter or the Limited Guarantee, the parties hereto further agree that unless and until this Agreement is terminated in accordance with

Section 9.1, Seller shall be entitled to an injunction, specific performance or other equitable remedy to specifically enforce

Purchaser’s obligations to consummate the Closing on the terms and conditions set forth herein and cause Purchaser to enforce the

terms of the Equity Commitment Letter against the Equity Financing Source(s), in each case, if, and only if, (i) the conditions

set forth in Section 8.1 and Section 8.2 have been and continue to be satisfied (other than those conditions

that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, each of which is capable of being satisfied at the Closing) or waived by Seller,

(ii) Purchaser has failed to consummate the Closing on the date required pursuant to Section 2.4(a), (iii) the

Debt Financing has been funded in accordance with the terms thereof or will be funded in accordance with the terms thereof at the Closing

if the other Financings are funded, (iv) Seller has delivered written notice (on or after the date contemplated in clause (ii))

to Purchaser irrevocably confirming that (A) all conditions set forth in Section 8.3 have been satisfied or validly

waived and (B) Seller and the Companies are ready, willing and able to perform their respective obligations hereunder to consummate

the Closing and shall (and actually do) take all actions required herein within its control to consummate the Closing if specific performance

is granted and the Financing is funded and (v) the Agreement has not been terminated in a situation where the Termination Fee has

been paid.

the avoidance of doubt, (i) the provisions of this Section 11.12 shall continue to apply after the Closing, (ii) Seller

shall be entitled to seek specific performance or other equitable relief under this Section 11.12; provided, that,

if an Action is brought to seek specific performance or other equitable relief, this Agreement may not be terminated during the pendency

of such Action by any party; provided, further, that, if a court of competent jurisdiction does not award specific performance

or other equitable relief to Seller in a final order, judgment, injunction or decree, Seller may terminate this Agreement and seek payment

of the Termination Fee in accordance with Section 9.4, provided, that, under no circumstances shall any Person be

entitled to both a grant of specific performance or other equitable relief of the sort described in this Section 11.12 and

any monetary damages, including payment of all or any portion of the Termination Fee, (iii) in no event shall Seller or any other

Seller Related Party be entitled to specifically enforce (or to bring any Action in equity seeking to specifically enforce) Purchaser’s

rights under the Equity Commitment Letter to cause the Equity Financing to be funded other than as expressly provided in the Equity Commitment

Letter and (iv) in no event shall Seller or any other Seller Related Party be entitled to seek to specifically enforce any provision

of this Agreement or to obtain an injunction or injunctions, or to bring any Action in equity in connection with the transactions contemplated

by this Agreement, against Purchaser or Purchaser Related Party other than by Seller against Purchaser and, in such case, only under

the circumstances expressly set forth in and permitted by this Section 11.12.

145

Section 11.13           Severability.

Whenever possible, each provision or portion of any provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective

and valid under applicable law, but if any provision or portion of any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or

unenforceable in any respect under any applicable law or rule in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability

shall not affect any other provision or portion of any provision in such jurisdiction, and this Agreement shall be reformed, construed

and enforced in such jurisdiction such that the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision or portion thereof shall be interpreted to

be only so broad as is enforceable.

Section 11.14           Delivery

by Electronic Transmission. This Agreement and any signed agreement or instrument entered into in connection with this Agreement,

and any amendments or waivers hereto or thereto, to the extent signed and delivered by email delivery of a “.pdf” format

data file, shall be treated in all manner and respects as an original agreement or instrument and shall be considered to have the same

binding legal effect as if it were the original signed version thereof delivered in person. No party hereto or to any such agreement

or instrument shall raise the use of email delivery of a “.pdf” format data file to deliver a signature to this Agreement

or any amendment hereto or the fact that any signature or agreement or instrument was transmitted or communicated through the email delivery

of a “.pdf” format data file as a defense to the formation of a contract, and each party hereto forever waives any such defense.

Section 11.15           Confidential

Supervisory Information. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, no disclosure, representation or warranty shall be

made (or other action taken) pursuant to this Agreement that would involve the disclosure of confidential supervisory information (including

“confidential supervisory information” as defined in 12 C.F.R. § 261.2(c) and information that is prohibited from

disclosure as defined in 5 U.S.C. § 552(b)(4) and (b)(6)) (collectively, the “Confidential Supervisory Information”)

by any party to this Agreement to the extent prohibited by applicable law. To the extent legally permissible, appropriate substitute

disclosures or actions shall be made or taken under circumstances in which the limitations of the preceding sentence apply, but no representation

or warranty shall be deemed untrue, incorrect or incomplete as a consequence of the omission of Confidential Supervisory Information.

Section 11.16           Disclaimer

of Representations and Warranties. EXCEPT FOR THE REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES CONTAINED IN Article III, Article IV,

Article V, Article VI AND Section 11.19(c) (EACH AS MODIFIED BY THE SELLER DISCLOSURE SCHEDULE,

FINANCE COMPANY DISCLOSURE SCHEDULE AND REINSURANCE COMPANY DISCLOSURE SCHEDULES, AS APPLICABLE), OR ANY OTHER TRANSACTION AGREEMENT

ALL LIABILITY AND RESPONSIBILITY, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, FOR ANY REPRESENTATION, WARRANTY, STATEMENT, OR

INFORMATION MADE, COMMUNICATED, OR FURNISHED (ORALLY OR IN WRITING) TO ANOTHER PARTY, OR ITS AFFILIATES OR REPRESENTATIVES (INCLUDING

ANY OPINION, INFORMATION, PROJECTION, OR ADVICE THAT MAY HAVE BEEN OR MAY BE PROVIDED TO SUCH OTHER PARTY BY ANY SHAREHOLDER,

DIRECTOR, OFFICER, EMPLOYEE, AGENT, CONSULTANT, OR REPRESENTATIVE OF THE PARTY OR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES). EACH PARTY HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGES

THAT NO IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE ARE BEING PROVIDED.

146

Except in the case of Fraud and other than as expressly provided for in the Equity Commitment Letter or the Limited Guarantee (in each

case, in accordance with its terms and subject to the conditions therein), notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this

Agreement, (a) this Agreement may only be enforced against, and any Action based upon, arising out of, or related to this Agreement,

or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement, may only be brought against the Persons that are expressly named as parties

to this Agreement and then only with respect to the specific express obligations set forth herein with respect to such party; and (b) no

past, present, or future director, officer, employee, incorporator, manager, member, partner, shareholder, Affiliate, agent, attorney

or Representative of any party, or any of their respective heirs, representatives, successors, or permitted assigns will have any liability

for any obligations or liabilities of any party under this Agreement or for any Action based upon, in respect of or by reason of the

transactions contemplated by this Agreement. For purposes of clarity, nothing in this Section 11.17 shall be deemed to limit

or impair the ability of Purchaser, any Affiliate thereof or any of their Representatives to bring a claim (whether in contract, tort,

equity, law or otherwise) for Fraud.

Section 11.18           Bulk

Sale. Seller shall indemnify, defend and hold Purchaser and (following Closing) the Companies harmless from and against any claims

payment and performance when due of any and all of Seller’s obligations, covenants, agreements and other liabilities under this

Agreement (the “Guaranteed Obligations”). This guarantee is a guarantee of payment when due (and not of collection),

and is not conditional or contingent upon any event, contingency or circumstance except as expressly set forth in this Agreement. To

the fullest extent permitted by Law, the obligations of Parent under this guarantee shall remain in full force and effect until payment

in full of the Guaranteed Obligations. This guarantee shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any

time any payment of all or any portion of any Guaranteed Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by Purchaser on the insolvency,

bankruptcy or reorganization of Seller or otherwise, all as though the payment had not been made. Parent acknowledges and agrees that

Purchaser refuses to enter into this Agreement or to consummate the Transactions unless Parent provides this guarantee and that Parent

will benefit personally from Purchaser’s entry into this Agreement and the consummation of the Transactions.

presentment, demand for payment or performance, notice of non-performance, default, protest or dishonor and any other notices or demands

of any kind or nature whatsoever with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations, and all notices of acceptance of this guarantee or the existence,

creation, incurring or assumption of new or additional obligations under the Agreement agreed upon between Seller and Purchaser, all

defenses which may be available by virtue of any valuation, stay, moratorium law or other similar Law now or hereafter in effect, any

right to require the marshalling of assets of Purchaser and all suretyship defenses generally; provided, that, for the avoidance

of doubt, Parent shall be entitled to any defenses to the payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations if such defenses are available

to Seller under this Agreement, (ii) the benefit of Laws providing for the exemption of property from execution or for valuation

and appraisal upon foreclosure, and (iii) except as provided herein, any requirement that Purchaser or any other Person protect,

secure, perfect or insure any Encumbrance, if any, or any property subject thereto, or Purchaser or any other Person exhaust any right,

power or remedy or proceed against any other Person or collateral or pursue any other remedy in Purchaser’s power whatsoever, prior

to any Action against Parent under the terms hereof. Parent agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations shall not be released or discharged,

in whole or in part, or otherwise affected by: (A) any change in the corporate existence, structure or ownership of Seller, (B) any

insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding affecting Seller, (C) the existence of any claim or right of

set off which Parent or any of its Affiliates may have at any time against Seller (if any), whether in connection with any Guaranteed

Obligation or otherwise, (D) the adequacy of any other means Purchaser may have of obtaining payment of any Guaranteed Obligation,

(E) the lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement, (F) the addition, substitution or release of any other Person

interested in the Transactions, or (G) any other event or circumstances, whether similar or dissimilar to the foregoing, that might

otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, Parent hereunder (other than (1) indefeasible payment in full of

the Guaranteed Obligation plus all interest, costs and expenses payable hereunder or (2) defenses to the payment of the Guaranteed

Obligation that are available to the Seller under this Agreement). Parent agrees that Purchaser may at any time and from time to time,

without notice to or further consent of Parent or Seller, extend the time of payment of the Guaranteed Obligations, and may also enter

into any agreement with Seller for the extension, renewal, payment, compromise, discharge or release thereof, in whole or in part, or

for any modification of the terms of this Agreement without in any way impairing or affecting the Guaranteed Obligations.

makes the following representations and warranties to Purchaser as of the date of this Agreement and as of the Closing Date: (i) Parent

is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Georgia, (ii) Parent has all

power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and to perform its obligations hereunder, (iii) the execution, delivery

and performance of this Agreement by Parent have been duly and validly authorized by Parent, no other actions on the part of Parent (and

no action on part of any stockholders of Parent) or any subsidiary thereof (except for Seller) are necessary to authorize the execution,

delivery and performance of this Agreement, (iv) this Agreement will upon execution and delivery be duly executed and delivered

by Parent, and, assuming due authorization, execution and delivery by each of the other parties hereto and thereto, constitutes or will

upon such delivery constitute, the legal, valid and binding obligation of Parent, enforceable against Parent in accordance with its terms,

Parent does not (A) violate any provision of Parent’s Organizational Documents, (B) require any filings with any Governmental

Entity, (C) result in a violation or breach of, or constitute (with or without notice or lapse of time or both) a default (or give

rise to any right of termination, cancellation or acceleration or any obligation to repay) or a loss of any benefit to which Parent is

any of its properties or assets may be bound (each in respect of the Business), or (D) violate any Law applicable to Parent or by

which any of its properties or assets may be bound (in respect of the Business), except in the case of clauses (C) and (D) above,

UNITED COMMUNITY BANKS, INC. ANNOUNCES

AGREEMENT

TO SELL EQUIPMENT FINANCE BUSINESS, CONSISTING OF NAVITAS CREDIT CORP.

AND NLFC REINSURANCE CORP., TO FUNDS MANAGED BY WAFRA INC.

GREENVILLE, SC – June 12, 2026

– United Community Banks, Inc. (NYSE: UCB) (“United”) today announced the execution of a definitive agreement to

sell its equipment finance business, consisting of Navitas Credit Corp. and NLFC Reinsurance Corp. (collectively, “Navitas”),

to funds managed by Wafra Inc., acting through Navitas TopCo LLC (“Wafra”) for $1.9 billion in cash1

(the “Transaction”).

The sale of Navitas reinforces United’s

focus on its core Southeastern relationship banking business while enhancing United’s liquidity and capital strength.

Key Highlights2:

· Attractive monetization of equipment finance business, with an estimated cash purchase price of $1.9 billion,

reflecting a 7% premium to the par value of Navitas’ loan portfolio.

Preliminary purchase price based on March 31, 2026 financials. Final purchase price subject to closing adjustments.

All financial figures are as of the quarter ended March 31, 2026. Financial impact of the Transaction is subject to adjustments based

on balance sheet figures as of closing and purchase price closing adjustments.

· United expects the Transaction to result in a one-time pre-tax earnings benefit of $109 million, which

is expected to result in 3% accretion to tangible book value per share. The Transaction is also expected to generate 145 basis points

of CET1 capital.

· The sale of Navitas will meaningfully reduce the risk profile of United’s loan portfolio. The equipment

finance business represents 10% of United’s total loan portfolio, while accounting for approximately 50% of United’s net charge-offs

for the last twelve months ended March 31, 2026.

· Net cash proceeds of $1.9 billion will result in a unique liquidity position for United, with a pro forma

loan to deposit ratio of 74%. In the short term, excess liquidity is expected to be reinvested in lower-risk securities with an aggregate

weighted average yield between 4.0-4.5% and target duration of less than two years.

· The Transaction will enhance United’s ability to continue allocating resources to its core banking

franchise, allowing for significant financial upside through the redeployment of liquidity and capital over time.

United intends to evaluate a range of capital

deployment alternatives after closing, which may include a combination of continued organic growth of its core community banking business,

balance sheet optimization, share repurchases, and opportunistic M&A consistent with the established strategy of small, in-market

transactions. United expects the impact on earnings per share to be offset as excess capital is deployed over time, while concurrently

lowering the risk profile of the franchise.

“Over the past eight years, Navitas has

been a valuable contributor to United, delivering strong growth and returns for our business,” said Lynn Harton, Chairman and Chief

Executive Officer. “In fact, for the past several quarters, we have had to restrain Navitas’ growth to remain within our self-imposed

portfolio limits. We have also expanded our core franchise since we acquired Navitas, which has resulted in better in-market relationship-based

growth opportunities within the community bank franchise. The sale will allow us to focus our resources on our core Southeastern markets

and will allow the opportunity for Navitas to continue their growth trajectory with a well-established and experienced owner within the

equipment finance sector.”

Navitas’ executive leadership team and all

employees are expected to remain with the business following the sale to funds managed by Wafra.

The Transaction is expected to be completed in

the third quarter of 2026 and is subject to customary closing conditions.

BofA Securities acted as exclusive financial advisor

to United, and Squire Patton Boggs (US) LLP served as United’s legal advisor. Sidley Austin LLP, Chapman and Cutler LLP, and Clifford

Chance LLP served as Wafra’s legal advisors.

United will host a conference call at 9am EST

today, June 12, 2026, to discuss the Transaction. Participants may pre-register for the conference call by navigating to https://dpregister.com/sreg/10209741/1042f6714e9.
