On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, at the Closing, Buyer shall assume, effective as of the Closing, and shall thereafter pay, perform, be responsible for and discharge or otherwise satisfy the following Liabilities of the Seller (collectively, the “Assumed Liabilities”): (i) all Liabilities to be performed under the Sold Contracts after the Closing (but not any Liability arising as a result of events, circumstances, 17 actions or omissions in existence or that occurred prior to the Closing or that is a Retained Liability except for Liabilities for Post-Closing Warranty Claims and executory obligations under the Sold Contracts); and (ii) the current Liabilities set forth on Schedule 2.3(a)(ii).

Buyer will not assume, and will not have been deemed to assume or become the successor to, any of the Liabilities of the Seller or any of its Affiliates other than the Assumed Liabilities, and the Buyer expressly disclaims any express or implied assumption of any Liabilities other than the Assumed Liabilities. The Retained Liabilities, which include all Debt Obligations of the Seller, all Selling Expenses of the Seller and all outstanding accounts payable of the Seller with respect to the Business, shall remain Liabilities of the Seller after the Closing. For purposes of this Agreement, “Retained Liabilities” means any Liability of Seller or its Affiliates, other than the Assumed Liabilities, including the liabilities set forth on Schedule 2.3(b). 2.4 Purchase Price. On Closing Date and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, in consideration of the sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance and delivery of the Sold Assets, the Buyer shall (a) pay to the Seller an aggregate amount equal to $10,000,000 (the “Purchase Price”), $5,000,000 of which shall be payable by Buyer by wire transfer of immediately available funds to one or more accounts of the Seller designated at least two Business Days prior to the Closing Date (the “Cash Purchase Price”), and $5,000,000 of which will be payable by Buyer to the Seller pursuant to the issuance of the Promissory Note, and (b) assume the Assumed Liabilities (collectively, the “Total Consideration”). For the avoidance of doubt, the Purchase Price and Total Consideration specified in this Section 2.4 do not include any Transfer Taxes. The Buyer shall pay such Transfer Taxes in accordance with Section 5.2(d) of this Agreement in addition to the Purchase Price and Total Consideration specified in this Section 2.4. 2.5 Allocation of Total Consideration. The Total Consideration, the Assumed Liabilities and any other amounts treated as consideration pursuant to applicable Law shall be allocated among the Sold Assets using the methodology set forth on Schedule 2.5 (the “Allocation”). The Buyer shall deliver to the Seller a proposed Allocation of the amount allocated among the Sold Assets and Assumed Liabilities no later than ninety (90) days after the Closing Date, and the Seller will provide any written comments, questions or objections with respect thereto no later than thirty (30) days after the delivery of the proposed Allocation.

The Parties agree that the Allocation of the Total Consideration pursuant to Schedule 2.5 is in accordance with the fair market value of such Sold Assets and Assumed Liabilities and Section 1060 of the Code and, to the extent not inconsistent therewith, any other applicable Tax Law. The Parties shall cooperate to comply with all substantive and procedural requirements of Section 1060 of the Code and any Treasury Regulations thereunder and, to the extent not inconsistent therewith, any other applicable Tax Law, and the Allocation shall be adjusted and/or supplemented if, and to the extent, necessary to comply with the requirements of Section 1060 of the Code. Neither the Buyer nor the Seller will take, nor permit any 18 Affiliate to take, any position inconsistent with the Allocations as finally determined by the Parties or, if applicable, such adjusted or supplemental allocation. Each of the Seller and the Buyer agrees that it shall attach to its Tax Returns for the tax year in which the Closing shall occur an information statement on Form 8594, which shall be completed in accordance with the allocations set forth on Schedule 2.5, and shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, cooperate with each other in preparing and filing any supplements to such form as may be required under Section 1060 of the Code and any other applicable Tax Law. The Parties agree to notify each other with respect to the initiation of any inquiry, claim, assessment, audit or Proceeding by any Taxing Authority relating to the allocations and agree to consult with each other with respect to any such inquiry, claim, assessment, audit or Proceeding by any Taxing Authority. 2.6 The Closing. The closing (the “Closing”) of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall take place remotely via the electronic exchange of executed documents and other deliverables on the date hereof (the “Closing Date”). All actions to be taken and all documents to be executed and delivered by all Parties at the Closing shall be deemed to have been taken, executed and delivered simultaneously, and no actions shall be deemed to have been taken nor documents executed or delivered until all have been taken, executed and delivered. Legal title, equitable title and risk of loss with respect to the Sold Assets will be deemed transferred to or vested in the Buyer, and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement will be deemed effective for Tax, accounting and other computational purposes, and the Parties will treat the Closing as if it had occurred, as of 12:01 a.m. (Eastern Time) on the date hereof. 2.7 Deliveries at the Closing. (a) Deliveries by the Seller. At or prior to the Closing, the Seller shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Buyer the following: (i) the Sold Assets; (ii) the Ancillary Agreements to which the Seller or any of its Affiliates is a party, duly executed by the Seller or such Affiliate; (iii) a certificate of good standing of the Seller, issued by the Secretary of State of the State of Ohio, dated no earlier than five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date; (iv) certified copies of resolutions duly adopted by the board of directors of the Seller evidencing the taking of all corporate action necessary to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements to which it is a party and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby; and (v) a duly and validly executed IRS Form W-9 of the Seller. (b) Method of Delivery by Seller. Delivery of the Sold Assets by Seller will be done via the manner specified by Buyer in writing and agreed to by Seller (e.g.,


 
19 electronic transfer or upload to a designated site), such agreement not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. Promptly following any electronic transmission, Seller shall execute and deliver to Buyer a certificate in a form reasonably acceptable to the Parties and containing at a minimum, the following information: (i) the date of transmission; (ii) the time transmission was commenced and concluded; and (iii) a general description of the nature of the items transmitted sufficient to distinguish the transmission from other transmissions. (c) Missing Asset. Following the initial delivery of the Sold Assets by Seller to Buyer, if prior to the two (2) year anniversary of the Closing Date, Buyer discovers any Sold Asset was not delivered by Seller (a “Missing Asset”), Buyer may send written notice to Seller that describes in reasonable detail the Missing Asset. Promptly after receipt of such notice, or, if Seller discovers any Missing Asset, Seller will, in a manner consistent with the delivery obligations under this Agreement with respect to similar Sold Assets, deliver or make available to Buyer (or one of its Affiliates) such Missing Asset. (d) Deliveries by the Buyer. At or prior to the Closing, the Buyer shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Seller the following: (i) the Cash Purchase Price by wire transfer of immediately available funds in U.S. dollars to an account or accounts designated by the Seller; (ii) the Ancillary Agreements to which the Buyer or any of its Affiliates is a party, duly executed by the Buyer or such Affiliate; (iii) a certificate of good standing of the Buyer, issued by the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada, dated no earlier than five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date; and (iv) certified copies of resolutions duly adopted by the board of directors of the Buyer evidencing the taking of all corporate or other action necessary to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements to which it is a party and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby. (e) Delayed Assignment. Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary in this Agreement, the Sold Contracts listed on Schedule 2.7(e) shall not be assigned at the Closing and instead shall be assigned in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Transitional Manufacturing and Services Agreement. 2.8 Non-transferrable Assets. Notwithstanding any other provision, this Agreement does not constitute an agreement to assign or transfer, or effect an assignment or transfer, of any Sold Asset, including any Sold Contract, Sold Intellectual Property or any claim or right or any benefit arising thereunder or resulting therefrom, if Seller has not obtained a required consent to assignment or transfer as of the Closing and an attempted assignment or transfer thereof without the consent of a third party (including any governmental entity) would constitute a breach or other contravention 20 thereof or a violation of applicable law or would in any way adversely affect the rights of Seller or Buyer thereto or thereunder. If, on the Closing Date, any required consent is not obtained, or if an attempted transfer or assignment of any Sold Asset would be ineffective or a violation of law or would impair the Buyer’s rights thereto or thereunder so that the Buyer would not receive all such rights, then Seller and Buyer will use their commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate in any lawful and commercially reasonable arrangement which will provide the Buyer the obligations and benefits of any such Sold Asset. If and when such consents or approvals are obtained or such other required actions have been taken, the transfer of such Sold Asset will be effected in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 2.9 Withholding. The Buyer and its Affiliates and representatives (each, a “Withholding Agent”) will be entitled to deduct and withhold, or cause to be deducted and withheld, from the consideration otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement, and from any other payments otherwise required pursuant to this Agreement, such amounts as are required to be deducted and withheld under any provision of U.S. federal, state, local or non-U.S. Tax Law, with respect to the making of such payment; provided, however, if any Withholding Agent determines that an amount is required to be deducted and withheld with respect to any amounts payable (other than as compensation), at least five (5) days prior to the date the applicable payment is scheduled to be made, the Buyer shall provide the Seller with written notice of its intent to deduct and withhold and the Buyer shall reasonably cooperate with the Seller to eliminate or reduce the basis for such deduction or withholding (including providing the Seller with a reasonable opportunity to provide forms or other evidence that would exempt such amounts from withholding). If the applicable Withholding Agent so withholds or deducts amounts and such amounts are timely paid by such Withholding Agent to the applicable Governmental Authority, such amounts will be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid under this Agreement to the Person to whom such amounts would otherwise have been paid. 2.10 Further Assurances. Each Party covenants that it will do, execute and deliver, or will cause to be done, executed and delivered, all such further acts and instruments that the other Parties or any of their respective successors or permitted assigns may reasonably request in order to more fully evidence the assumption of the Assumed Liabilities provided for in Section 2.3 and the sale and transfer of the Sold Assets. Such obligation includes the filing of any and all documents necessary to record the transfer of any Sold Intellectual Property with Governmental Authorities.

All such Tax Returns filed with respect to the Business or the Sold Assets were true, correct and complete in all material respects and prepared in compliance with applicable Laws.

Except as provided in Section 5.2, the Buyer agrees that it shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, preserve and keep all pre- Closing records of the Business in its or their possession, as applicable, in compliance 38 with the established records retention policies of the Buyer. The Seller agrees that it shall preserve its records with respect to the Business in compliance with the established records retention policies of the Seller. The Buyer and the Seller agree that each shall make, or cause their respective Affiliates to make, such records and personnel available to the other and its Affiliates as may be reasonably required in connection with, among other things, any insurance claims by, legal proceedings against (other than legal proceedings by the Buyer or any of its Affiliates against the Seller or any of its Affiliates or vice versa) or governmental investigations involving, the Buyer or the Seller or any of their respective Affiliates or in order to enable the Buyer or the Seller or any of their respective Affiliates to comply with their respective obligations under this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements. 5.2 Tax Matters. (a) To the extent relevant to the Business or the Sold Assets, the Buyer and the Seller agree to furnish or cause to be furnished to each other, upon request, as promptly as practicable, such information and assistance relating to the Business and any of the Sold Assets (including access to books and records, employees, contractors and representatives) as is reasonably necessary for the filing of all Tax Returns, the making of any election related to Taxes, the preparation for or defense of any Tax Contest by any Taxing Authority and the prosecution or defense of any Tax Contest relating to any Tax Return. Further, subject to all applicable confidentiality obligations, the Seller will be permitted to retain, in its discretion, copies of any such books and records relating to the Business or any of the Sold Assets as are reasonably necessary for any of such purposes as set forth above. The Buyer and the Seller will retain all books and records with respect to Taxes pertaining to the Business or to the Sold Assets until the expiration of all relevant statutes of limitation (and, to the extent notified by the Buyer and the Seller, any extensions thereof). (b) Real or personal property Taxes (or other similar Taxes) imposed on or relating to the Sold Assets for the current Tax year will be prorated between the Seller and the Buyer on a per diem basis effective as of the Closing. Proration of Taxes that are undetermined as of the date hereof (i) will be based on the most recently available Tax rate and valuation, giving effect to applicable exemptions, recently-voted millage, change in valuation and similar items, whether or not officially certified to the appropriate Taxing Authority as of the date hereof and (ii) will use a 365-day year. On or before the Closing, the Seller will pay all delinquent property Taxes or special assessments with respect to the Business or the Sold Assets not contested by the Seller in good faith through appropriate proceedings, which contested Taxes or assessments will remain the Seller’s obligation. When the actual amounts become known, such prorations will be recalculated by the Buyer and the Seller, and the Buyer or the Seller, as the case may be, will promptly (but not later than ten Business Days after notice of payment due) make any additional payment or refund so that the correct prorated amount is paid by each of the Buyer and the Seller. (c) If a property Tax refund that is an Excluded Asset is received by the Buyer, then the Buyer will remit such refund, net of any Taxes and reasonable out-of-


 
39 pocket costs incurred with respect to such Tax refund, to the Seller within fifteen (15) Business Days of receipt by the Buyer. The Seller and the Buyer will reasonably cooperate with each other to pursue and obtain property Tax refunds; except that the Seller retains the exclusive right to apply for property Tax refunds and to appeal property Tax assessments pertaining to all periods ending on or before the date hereof (collectively, the “Pre-Closing Appeals”). All proceedings relating to Pre-Closing Appeals, to the extent practicable, will be conducted by and in the name of the Seller and as directed by the Seller. The provisions of this Section 5.2(c) will survive the Closing. (d) All excise, sales, use, registration, stamp, recording, documentary, conveyancing, franchise, transfer, transaction privilege and similar Taxes, levies, charges and fees incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (collectively, the “Transfer Taxes”) will be paid by Buyer, and the Party required by Law to file all necessary Tax Returns and other documentation with respect to all such Transfer Taxes shall prepare and file such Tax Returns and other documentation and, if required by applicable Law, the non-filing Party will join in the execution of any such Tax Returns and other documentation. Within thirty (30) days after payment, the filing Party will provide the non-filing Party with copies of all such Tax Returns and evidence that all such Taxes have been paid. The Buyer and the Seller will reasonably cooperate to reduce or eliminate Transfer Taxes to the extent permitted by applicable Law. 5.3 Employees; Employment Matters. (a) Offers/Transfer of Employment. Prior to the date hereof, the Buyer shall have, or shall have caused its applicable Affiliate to, make a written offer of employment, in accordance with the requirements of this Section 5.3, to each Business Employee to be effective as of immediately prior to and contingent upon the Closing (unless such Business Employee is an Automatically Transferring Employee). All Business Employees (including Automatically Transferring Employees) who continue employment with or who accept an offer of employment with the Buyer or its Affiliates as of the date hereof will cease employment with the Seller and begin employment with the Buyer or an Affiliate of the Buyer effective as of the date hereof and are hereinafter referred to as the “Transferred Employees.” (b) Cessation of Active Participation in Seller Benefit Plans. Effective as of the date hereof, except as required by Law or otherwise by this Section 5.3, all Transferred Employees will cease active participation in, and any benefit accrual under, each of the Seller Benefit Plans. (c) Pre-Closing Employee Obligations. Seller shall be solely responsible, and the Buyer and its Affiliates shall have no obligations whatsoever for, any compensation or other compensatory amounts payable by Seller to any current or former employee, officer, director, independent contractor or consultant of the Business, including, without limitation, hourly pay, commission, bonus, salary, accrued vacation, fringe, pension or profit sharing benefits or severance pay for any period relating to the service with Seller at any time on or prior to the Closing (“Pre-Closing Employee Liabilities”). The Buyer shall assume and be responsible for payment of all salaries, 40 wages and benefits and all other costs and Liabilities related to the Transferred Employees that are earned after the Closing. (d) Compensation. As of the date hereof and for a period of one year thereafter, for so long as a Transferred Employee continues employment during such period, the Buyer shall, or shall cause its Affiliates to provide to the Transferred Employees, (i) base salary and wages, as applicable, and target short-term and long-term incentive opportunities that are no less favorable than provided to the Transferred Employees, in the aggregate, immediately prior to the date hereof or to similarly situated employees of the Buyer and (ii) employee benefit plans, programs, policies and arrangements that are substantially comparable in the aggregate to the Seller Benefit Plans covering such Transferred Employees as in effect immediately prior to the Closing. To the extent not otherwise required by or resulting from the operation of Law and to the extent it does not result in duplication of benefits, the Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to recognize each Transferred Employee’s service with the Seller or any of its Affiliates or predecessors as of the Closing as service with the Buyer for purposes of eligibility to participate in, vesting under and accrual of benefits under any employee benefit plan, program or arrangement of the Buyer or any affiliate of the Buyer in which Transferred Employees participate. (e) Welfare Plans. Coverage for all Transferred Employees and their respective dependents under the Seller Benefit Plans that are welfare benefit plans within the meaning of Section 3(1) of ERISA (the “Seller’s Welfare Plans”) shall cease to be effective as of December 31, 2022. The plans sponsored by the Buyer or its Affiliates that are welfare benefit plans within the meaning of Section 3(1) of ERISA (the “Buyer’s Welfare Plans”) shall provide access to coverage and benefits for all Transferred Employees and their respective eligible spouses and dependents effective as of January 1, 2023. The Buyer and its Affiliates and the Buyer’s Welfare Plans shall be liable for all claims of any Transferred Employees and their respective eligible spouses and dependents on or after the date hereof, to the extent such claims are incurred on or after January 1, 2023. The Seller shall retain responsibility and liability for all claims of the Transferred Employees incurred under Seller’s Welfare Plans before December 31, 2022. For purposes of this Section 5.3(d), a claim shall be deemed “incurred” on the date that the event that gives rise to the claim occurs (for purposes of life insurance, severance, sickness, accident and disability programs) or on the date that the service was rendered or the supply was purchased (for purposes of health care programs). (f) Continuation Coverage. The Buyer or its Affiliates shall have the sole responsibility to offer “continuation coverage” benefits after the date hereof to the Transferred Employees and “qualified beneficiaries” of such Transferred Employees for whom a “qualifying event” occurs before, on or after December 31, 2022. The terms “continuation coverage,” “qualified beneficiaries” and “qualifying event” shall have the meanings ascribed to them under Section 4980B of the Code and Sections 601-608 of ERISA. (g) Cooperation. The Parties agree to furnish each other with such information concerning employees, employee payroll and employee benefit plans, subject 41 to confidentiality and privacy considerations, and to take all such other action, as is necessary and appropriate to effect the transactions contemplated hereby. (h) No Right to Employment. Nothing herein expressed or implied shall confer upon any of the employees of the Seller, the Buyer or any of their respective Affiliates, any additional rights or remedies, including any additional right to employment, or continued employment for any specified period, of any nature or kind whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement. (i) No Third Party Beneficiary.

For a period of 91 days (inclusive) following the date hereof, the Buyer shall not, and shall cause any successor or permitted assign of any portion of the Sold Assets not to, cause or permit to be implemented any plant closing, partial closing, mass layoff or other termination of employees that, either alone or in the aggregate (with each other and/or with any plant closing, partial closing, mass layoff or other termination of employees of the Seller (with respect to the Business) occurring on or prior to the date hereof) could reasonably be expected to create any Liability for the Seller or any of its Affiliates under the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act of 1988, as amended, or any similar applicable state or local Law. 5.5 Non-Competition, Non-Solicitation and Confidentiality. (a) The Seller will not (and will cause its Affiliates not to), directly or indirectly: (i) during the five-year period commencing on the date hereof, engage in any business in competition with the Business as conducted immediately prior to Closing in the geographic areas in which the Business sells or has sold products and/or services prior to Closing and/or has or had a physical presence (each, a “Competing Activity”); provided that the foregoing will not prohibit the Seller or any of its Affiliates from (A) the acquisition, holding of investments or direct or indirect ownership of any voting stock, capital stock or other equity interest of any Person engaged in a Competing Activity, so long as such ownership interest is passive and represents less than 5% of the aggregate voting power or outstanding capital stock or other equity interests of such Person provided that the Seller is not otherwise associated with such Person and does not have the ability to control or exercise any managerial influence over such Person; or (B) the acquisition of all or any portion of the equity interests of any Person engaged in a Competing Activity; provided that the Competing Activity accounts for no more than 15% of the revenues of such Person (based on its latest annual 42 financial statements); provided, further that this Section 5.5(a)(i)(B) will not be deemed to be violated if such Competing Activity accounts for more than 15% of the revenues of such Person (based on its latest annual financial statements) if within 12 months following consummation of such acquisition, the Seller’s or any of its Affiliates’ Competing Activities account for less than 15% of the revenues of such Person (based on its then latest annual financial statements); provided further that if any Person acquires all or any portion of the assets or equity interests in the Seller or any of its Affiliates (whether by merger, consolidation, stock or asset purchase, or other similar transaction) and such Person or an Affiliate of such Person is engaged in a Competing Activity at the time of such acquisition, the restrictions in this Section 5.5(a)(i) will not apply to such Person or its then existing Affiliates (other than the Seller and its Affiliates) with respect to such Competing Activity; (ii) during the five-year period commencing on the date hereof, employ or solicit for employment any Transferred Employee without first obtaining the written consent of the Buyer (unless such Person’s employment is terminated by the Buyer or any of its Affiliates) (any employee will be deemed not to have been solicited for employment if such employee responds to a general solicitation not targeted or directed at the Buyer or any Transferred Employees); or (iii) during the five-year period commencing on the date hereof, solicit or try to solicit orders for goods or services with respect to the Business from a Person who at any time within the 12 months prior to the date hereof has been a customer, vendor or supplier of the Business; provided, that this provision will not restrict the Seller (or its Affiliates) from contacting such customers, vendors or suppliers to the extent necessary and in connection with the conduct and operation of its businesses as carried on as of the date of this Agreement other than the Business or under the Ancillary Agreements and this provision shall not restrict Seller or any of its Affiliates to the extent the restrictions of Section 5.5(a)(i) do not apply pursuant to one of the provisions thereunder. (b) The Parties agree that this Section 5.5 is reasonable and necessary to protect and preserve the Buyer’s legitimate business interests and the value of the Business and the Sold Assets. The Parties further agree and acknowledge that: (i) no proceeds will be received or receivable by the Seller or its Affiliates for granting the restrictive covenants under this Section 5.5 and (ii) the restrictive covenants under this Section 5.5 are integral to this Agreement and have been granted to maintain or preserve the fair market value of the Business and the Sold Assets. 5.6 Further Actions.

(a) The Buyer and the Seller hereby confirm and agree that, with respect to any information directly or indirectly furnished by or on behalf of the other Party, whether before, on or after the date hereof, such Party shall continue to be bound by the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement. (b) The Buyer understands and agrees that the Seller is making available confidential information and trade secrets to the Buyer concerning the operations of the Seller and the Business, which information would be damaging to the Seller and its Affiliates if disclosed to a competitor or made available to any other Person, and that such information has been divulged in confidence. The Buyer acknowledges that after the date hereof the Seller and its Affiliates could be irreparably damaged if any nonpublic or proprietary information about the Seller or its Affiliates that does not relate to the Business, the Sold Assets or the Assumed Liabilities were disclosed by the Buyer or its Affiliates after the Closing to any Person other than the Seller or its Affiliates, and the Buyer will not, and will cause its officers, directors, employees and other Affiliates not to, following the date hereof, without the prior written consent of the Seller, disclose or use (or permit to be disclosed or used) in any way any such information, unless (i) compelled to disclose such confidential information by judicial or administrative process or, in the opinion of its counsel, by other requirements of Law and, in any such event, the Buyer shall, to the extent practicable, give the Seller prompt written notice of any such requirement prior to any such disclosure, (ii) such confidential information is generally available to the public through no fault of the Buyer or any of its Affiliates, or (iii) such confidential information is publicly disclosed by the Buyer or its Affiliates with the Seller’s prior written consent.

(c) Seller shall, and shall cause its Affiliates, and Seller’s and its Affiliates’ officers, directors, employees, consultants, advisors and representatives to treat after the date hereof as strictly confidential (unless compelled to disclose by judicial or administrative process) all Buyer Trade Secrets; provided that nothing in this Section 5.8 shall prevent Seller or its Affiliates and representatives from using such Buyer Trade Secrets solely to the extent permitted by the Transition Services Agreement. Seller shall, and shall cause its Affiliates, and Seller’s and its Affiliates’ officers, directors, employees, consultants, advisors and representatives to use the same security measures used by Seller prior to the date hereof to protect and maintain the security and confidentiality of such Buyer Trade Secrets, but in any event not less than reasonable measures, including given the value of such Buyer Trade Secrets. The Seller acknowledges that after the date hereof the Buyer could be irreparably damaged if any nonpublic or proprietary information contained Sold Assets or the Assumed Liabilities were disclosed or used by 44 the Buyer or its Affiliates after the Closing to any Person other than Buyer other than solely to the extent permitted by the Transition Services Agreement. 5.9 Release.

Furthermore, without limiting the generality of this Section 5.9, except for the Specified Claims, no claim or cause of action will, directly or indirectly, be brought or maintained by, or on behalf of, the Releasing Parties against any Released Party and no recourse will be sought or granted against any of them, by virtue of, or based upon, any alleged breach of duty, misrepresentation or inaccuracy in, or breach of, any of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements of any Released Party or any other Person set forth or contained in this Agreement or any Exhibit or the Disclosure Schedules or any Ancillary Agreement, information provided, certificate or other document entered into, made, delivered or made available in connection herewith, or as a result of any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The Parties agree, on behalf of itself and their respective Releasing Parties, to indemnify and hold harmless each of the Released Parties from and against, and in respect of, any and all Losses incurred by or on behalf of any Released Party as a result of any such Proceeding brought or maintained by any member of the Releasing Parties against any Released Party in contravention of this Section 5.9. The Parties acknowledge and agree that the agreements contained in this Section 5.9 (a) require performance after the Closing to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law and will survive the Closing for 20 years and (b) are an integral part of the transactions 45 contemplated hereby and that, without the agreements set forth in this Section 5.9, none of the Parties would enter into this Agreement. The provisions of this Section 5.9 are intended to be for the benefit of, and enforceable by the Released Parties referenced in this Section 5.9 and each such Person shall be a third party beneficiary of this Section 5.9. 5.10 Product Warranty. After the date hereof, if the Buyer or any of its subsidiaries is notified of a product warranty claim (whether related to planned service activities or to unplanned service activities) or other Liability related to a product sold by the Business prior to the date hereof (a “Post-Closing Warranty Claim”), the Buyer shall or shall cause its relevant subsidiary, (a) to the extent any such Post-Closing Warranty Claim is greater than, or reasonably expected to be greater than, $2,500 (calculated on a time and materials basis, exclusive of shipping costs), to notify the Seller of such Post- Closing Warranty Claim (and provide any relevant materials or documentation related to such Post-Closing Warranty Claim), investigate such Post-Closing Warranty Claim, advise the Seller of the proposed resolution of such Post-Closing Warranty Claim, and obtain the Seller’s consent to the proposed resolution of such Post-Closing Warranty Claim (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned, it being understood that the reasonableness of such delay may take into account the reasonable expectations of customers with respect to the timing of the warranty servicing), and (b) to the extent that any such Post-Closing Warranty Claim is less than, or is reasonably expected to be less than, $2,500, the Buyer shall notify the Seller of such Post-Closing Warranty Claim (and provide any relevant materials or documentation related to such Post-Closing Warranty Claim). The Buyer or the relevant subsidiary will be responsible for resolving any Post-Closing Warranty Claim, subject to Seller’s consent only in the case of (a) above. After resolution of a Post-Closing Warranty Claim, the Buyer shall provide the Seller with a written notice of the cost of the resolution of such Post-Closing Warranty Claim, together with any related documentation thereof, and the Seller shall reimburse the Buyer for such cost reflected in the written notice within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of such written notice (including for the avoidance of doubt, any shipping costs incurred in connection with such Post-Closing Warranty Claim). The Seller may, at its option upon notice to the Buyer, aggregate all amounts owed pursuant to such written notices during each calendar month and pay the aggregate amount thereof within five (5) Business Days after the end of each calendar month. If, through negotiations with the third party making the Post-Closing Warranty Claim in the case of (a) above, the terms of the resolution of such Post-Closing Warranty Claim are revised in a way that is reasonably expected to materially increase the expected cost to fulfill such Post-Closing Warranty Claim, the Buyer shall obtain the Seller’s consent to such revisions (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned, it being understood that the reasonableness of such delay may take into account the reasonable expectations of customers with respect to the timing of the warranty servicing). The Parties acknowledge and agree that all Post-Closing Warranty Claims that arise after the date hereof that relate to products sold by the Business prior to the date hereof shall be addressed solely pursuant to this Section 5.10 notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement. 5.11 Use of the Parker Marks Following Closing.

Ninety (90) days after Seller has delivered to Buyer all of the Sold Assets (or such longer period specified under applicable Law or by Buyer in writing), Seller shall, and shall cause each Affiliate: (i) to permanently destroy, erase and remove all copies of the Sold Intellectual Property in each case from all systems, computers, servers and storage devices/media in Seller’s or such Affiliate’s possession or under Seller’s or such Affiliate’s control (the “Deleted Intellectual Property”), including all backup copies, disaster recovery copies and all electronic and nonelectronic copies, and (ii) promptly thereafter, upon the Buyer’s written request, deliver to Buyer a certificate signed by an officer of Seller after due inquiry certifying that Seller and its Affiliates have complied with the obligations in this Section 5.13. Pending the destruction and erasure described above, neither Seller or any Affiliate of Seller shall disclose any portion of any of such Deleted Intellectual Property to any Person (other than Buyer ); provided, however if any Sold Assets are needed to perform under the Transition Services 48 Agreement, then obligations shall arise when such Sold Assets are no longer necessary to so perform. 5.15 Sold Intellectual Property Transfer. The Seller shall promptly direct and instruct its internal and external counsel to timely cooperate with Buyer in connection with the transfer of prosecution file histories with respect to the registered Sold Intellectual Property to Buyer, or its or their counsel as instructed by Buyer. 5.16 Post-Closing Financial Statement Cooperation. (a) Prior to the date hereof, Seller has engaged WithumSmith+Brown, PC (the “Accounting Firm”) to audit the abbreviated financial statements of the Business as of June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021, and for the years then ended which comprise the statements of assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of June 30, 2022 and 2021, and the related statements of net revenues and direct expenses for each of the two fiscal years in the period ended June 30, 2022, and the related abbreviated notes (the “Business Financial Statements”). Any and all reasonable and documented out of pocket fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm in connection with the engagement of the Accounting Firm that are incurred by the Seller or its Affiliates shall be reimbursed by the Buyer promptly (and in any event within ten (10) Business Days) in immediately available funds after receipt from the Seller of one or more invoices with respect thereto delivered to Buyer from time to time after the date hereof. (b) The Seller shall use its reasonable best efforts to provide information on a timely basis to the Accounting Firm for the Accounting Firm to be able to timely complete the audit of the Business Financial Statements. (c) From and after the date hereof and continuing through the first anniversary of the Closing Date, upon reasonable request from the Buyer, the Seller shall use its reasonable best efforts to provide the Buyer with access to all financial and other information pertaining to the Business relating to the period of the Seller’s ownership and operation of the Business, which information is necessary to enable Buyer to comply with its reporting obligations under the Securities Laws, including the preparation of any pro forma financial statements required by Regulation S-X under the Securities Laws; provided that all reasonable and documented out of pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Sellers or their Affiliates or representatives, including their accounting firms and/or their other advisors and/or the Seller’s internal financial reporting team, in connection therewith shall be reimbursed by the Buyer promptly (and in any event within ten (10) Business Days) in immediately available funds after receipt from the Seller of one or more invoices with respect thereto delivered from time to time after the date hereof; provided, however, that the Seller shall not be required to provide any information pursuant to this Section 5.16 (i) in connection with any litigation or similar dispute between the Parties, or (ii) where, upon the advice of counsel, such access or disclosure would jeopardize the attorney-client or other applicable legal privilege or protection of such Party or contravene any Laws, contracts or obligation of confidentiality owed to a third party. 49 ARTICLE VI INDEMNIFICATION 6.1 Survival. The representations and warranties contained in this Agreement will survive the date hereof until the 12-month anniversary of the date hereof; except that the Buyer Fundamental Representations and the Seller Fundamental Representations will survive indefinitely. All covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement which by their terms are to be performed, in whole or in part, or which prohibit actions, subsequent to the date hereof shall survive the Closing in accordance with their terms. All other covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement shall not survive the date hereof and shall terminate at the Closing. Any claim for indemnification not made by the Buyer or the Seller on or prior to the date of termination of the applicable survival period set forth in this Section 6.1 (such date, as applicable the “Expiration Date”) will be irrevocably and unconditionally released and waived, whether or not a longer period would be permitted by applicable Law. However, if the Buyer or the Seller, as applicable, provides proper notice of a claim within the applicable time period set forth above, then liability for such claim will continue until such claim is resolved. 6.2 Indemnification by the Seller. From and after the Closing and subject to this ARTICLE VI, the Seller agrees to indemnify and hold the Buyer and its Affiliates and each of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents and representatives (collectively, the “Buyer Indemnified Persons”) harmless from and against any and all losses, damages, costs and reasonable and documented expenses (including reasonable and documented fees and expenses of attorneys) (collectively, “Losses”), that any Buyer Indemnified Person actually suffers or incurs arising out of or resulting from: (a) any breach, inaccuracy or misrepresentation of any representation or warranty made by the Seller in ARTICLE III; (b) any breach, violation or non-fulfillment of or failure to perform any covenant or agreement of the Seller contained in this Agreement; and (c) any Retained Liability. 6.3 Seller Indemnification Limitations. (a) The obligation of the Seller to indemnify the Buyer Indemnified Persons under Section 6.2 is subject to the following: (i) the Seller shall have no liability under Section 6.2(a) and no Losses may be recovered from the Seller under Section 6.2(a) unless the claims of the Buyer Indemnified Persons for indemnification under Section 6.2(a) exceed, in the aggregate, $100,000 (the “Threshold”), in which case the Buyer Indemnified Persons will be entitled to indemnification for all such Losses from the first dollar; (ii) the liability of the Seller in respect of claims of the Buyer Indemnified Persons under Section 6.2(a) (except for the Seller Fundamental Representations) shall not exceed, in the aggregate, $1,000,000 (the “Cap”); and 50 (iii) the liability of the Seller in respect of claims of the Buyer Indemnified Persons related to the Seller Fundamental Representations shall not exceed, in the aggregate, the Purchase Price plus any interest accrued under the Promissory Note. (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the limitations set forth in this Section 6.3, including the Threshold and the Cap, will not apply with respect to Fraud or claims under Section 6.2(b) or Section 6.2(c). 6.4 Indemnification by the Buyer. From and after the Closing and subject to this ARTICLE VI, the Buyer and its subsidiaries, jointly and severally, agree to indemnify and hold the Seller and its Affiliates and each of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents and representatives (collectively, the “Seller Indemnified Persons”) harmless from and against any and all Losses that any Seller Indemnified Person actually suffers or incurs arising out of or resulting from: (a) any breach, inaccuracy or misrepresentation of any representation or warranty made by the Buyer in ARTICLE IV; (b) any breach, violation, non-fulfillment of, or failure to perform any covenant or agreement of the Buyer contained in this Agreement; (c) any Assumed Liability; and (d) the possession, ownership, use, operation and management of the Sold Assets and the Parker Marks by the Buyer (or its Affiliates) from and after the Closing, other than to the extent related to any breach by a Seller Indemnified Person under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement. 6.5 Buyer Indemnification Limitations. (a) The obligation of the Buyer to indemnify the Seller Indemnified Persons under Section 6.4 is subject to the following: (i) the Buyer shall have no liability under Section 6.4(a) and no Losses may be recovered from the Buyer under Section 6.4(a) unless the claims of the Seller Indemnified Persons for indemnification under Section 6.4(a) exceed, in the aggregate, the Threshold, in which case the Seller Indemnified Persons will be entitled to indemnification for all such Losses from the first dollar; (ii) the liability of the Buyer in respect of claims of the Seller Indemnified Persons under Section 6.4(a) (except for the Buyer Fundamental Representations) shall not exceed, the General Cap; and (iii) the liability of the Buyer in respect of claims of the Seller Indemnified Persons related to the Buyer Fundamental Representations shall not exceed, in the aggregate, the Purchase Price.


 
51 (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the limitations set forth in this Section 6.5, including the Threshold and Cap, will not apply with respect to Fraud or claims under Section 6.4(b), Section 6.4(c), or Section 6.4(d). 6.6 Indemnification as Exclusive Remedy. The indemnification provided in this ARTICLE VI, subject to the limitations set forth herein, will be the sole and exclusive post-Closing remedy available to the Buyer Indemnified Persons and the Seller Indemnified Persons in connection with any Losses arising out of or resulting from this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby, or Buyer’s ownership or operation of the Sold Assets, whether based in contract or tort (including negligence) or otherwise predicated on common law standards, strict liability or otherwise; provided, however, that the provisions of this Section 6.6 will not prevent or limit a cause of action at Law or in equity (a) for Fraud or (b) under Section 7.15 to obtain an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof. Without limitation of any indemnification rights under this ARTICLE VI, the Buyer Indemnified Persons expressly waive any and all rights and remedies against the Seller under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act, 42 U.S.C. §9601 et seq. as amended, and other Environmental Laws in connection with any Losses arising out of or resulting from this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby, or the ownership or operation of the Sold Assets. 6.7 Indemnification Calculations. The amount of any Losses for which indemnification is provided under this ARTICLE VI will be computed net of any insurance proceeds actually paid to the Indemnified Party in connection with such Losses, minus any out-of-pocket expenses and attorney’s and other professional’s fees and expenses incurred relating to the recovery of such insurance proceeds including any increase in premiums (“Recovery Proceeds”). If an Indemnified Party receives Recovery Proceeds in connection with Losses for which it has received indemnification, and the result of which is that the Indemnified Party has received double recovery in respect of such Loss such Party will refund to the Indemnifying Party the amount of such Recovery Proceeds when received, up to the amount that is the lesser of the amount needed to avoid such double recovery or the amount paid by the Indemnifying Party. The Parties agree that any indemnification payments made pursuant to this Agreement shall be treated for tax purposes as an adjustment to the Purchase Price, unless otherwise required by applicable Law. 6.8 Notice and Opportunity to Defend. If there occurs an event which a Party asserts is an indemnifiable event pursuant to Sections 6.2 or 6.4, the Party seeking indemnification (the “Indemnified Party”) shall promptly notify the other Party obligated to provide indemnification (the “Indemnifying Party”) prior to the applicable Expiration Date, which notice shall specify the nature and basis of such claim and the amount thereof, to the extent known. If such event involves any claim or the commencement of any action or proceeding by a third Person (a “Third Party Claim”), the Indemnified Party will give such Indemnifying Party prompt written notice of such claim or the commencement of such action or proceeding, which notice shall specify the nature and basis of such claim and the amount thereof, to the extent known, and shall be accompanied by copies of all relevant documentation with respect to such claim, including any summons, complaint or 52 other pleadings that may have been served, any written demand or any other relevant document or instrument; provided, however, that the failure to provide such prompt notice will not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations hereunder except to the extent such failure materially prejudices the Indemnifying Party hereunder. In the case of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to assume the defense thereof, with counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party at its own expense, and, after notice from the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party of such election to assume the defense thereof, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to the Indemnified Party for any legal expenses of other counsel or any other expenses subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof. An election to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim shall, other than to the extent agreed otherwise by the Parties, be deemed an admission that the Indemnifying Party has an unqualified obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Party with respect to such Third Party Claim. The Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party agree to cooperate reasonably with each other and their respective counsel in connection with the defense, negotiation or settlement of any such Third Party Claim. Notwithstanding anything else set forth in this Section 6.8 to the contrary, the Indemnified Party shall at all times have the right to participate at its own expense in the defense of such action or asserted liability. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of an action, no settlement or compromise thereof may be effected (a) by the Indemnifying Party without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) unless the settlement involves solely money damages and all such relief is paid or satisfied in full by the Indemnifying Party or (b) by the Indemnified Party without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not be unnecessarily withheld, conditioned or delayed). In no event shall any settlement be determinative of whether any Losses under such settlement are indemnifiable by an Indemnifying Party or the amount of such Losses without the Indemnifying Party’s prior written consent. 6.9 Satisfaction of Claims. Subject to the other applicable provisions regarding indemnification contained in this Article VI, if the Seller is obligated to reimburse or compensate the Buyer for any Losses in connection with a claim by a Buyer Indemnified Person under Section 6.2, then indemnification for such Losses shall, subject to the applicable limitations, if any, set forth in this Article VI, be satisfied at the election of Buyer (i) by reducing the principal amount of the Promissory Note then outstanding with such reduction deemed retroactive to the Closing Date or (ii) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated by the Indemnified Party. 6.10 Additional Limitations. (a) Except for Losses resulting from an action brought by a third party against a Buyer Indemnified Person or a Seller Indemnified Person, no Buyer Indemnified Person or Seller Indemnified Person shall be entitled to indemnification under this ARTICLE VI for punitive damages or for any Losses to the extent such Losses constitute consequential damages and were not a reasonably foreseeable result of any breach by a Party of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of this Agreement. 53 (b) Notwithstanding anything in this ARTICLE VI to the contrary, no Party shall be entitled to be compensated more than once for the same Loss. (c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, no Indemnifying Party shall be obligated to indemnify any Indemnified Party pursuant to Section 6.2 or Section 6.4 with respect to any Losses, to the extent (i) not relating to Taxes and arising as a result of any action or omission by any such Indemnified Party after the Closing, or (ii) such matter is the subject of any Ancillary Agreement and recourse is available pursuant thereto. (d) Subject to Section 6.9 of this Agreement, no Party shall be entitled to recover any indemnification payment or other amounts due from the other Parties under this Agreement by retaining and setting off the amounts (whether or not such amounts are liquidated or reduced to judgment) against any amounts due or to become due from such Party under this Agreement or under any document delivered pursuant hereto or in connection herewith, including any Ancillary Agreement. (e) Each of the Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with each other to resolve any claim or liability with respect to which a Party is obligated to indemnify the other Party under this Agreement. 6.11 Certain Acknowledgements. The Parties unconditionally and irrevocably acknowledge and agree that (a) the terms of ARTICLE VI and ARTICLE VII are an integral part of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and (b) without the terms of ARTICLE VI and ARTICLE VII the Parties would not enter into this Agreement or otherwise agree to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. ARTICLE VII MISCELLANEOUS 7.1 Fees and Expenses. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, each Party shall be liable for and shall bear its own expenses and the expenses of its Affiliates in connection with the preparation and negotiation of this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements and the performance and consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements. 7.2 Governing Law. This Agreement, and all claims or causes of action based upon, arising out of, or related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the Laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to principles or rules of conflict of laws to the extent such principles or rules would require or permit the application of Laws of another jurisdiction. The Parties agree that (a) the requirements of 6 Del. C. Section 2708 are satisfied and that the statute mandates the application of Delaware law to this Agreement, the relationship of the Parties, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the interpretation and enforcement of the rights and duties of the Parties, (b) no other jurisdiction has a materially greater interest in the foregoing, and (c) the application of 54 Delaware law would not be contrary to the fundamental policy of any other jurisdiction that, absent the Parties’ choice of Delaware law, would have an interest in the foregoing. 7.3 Further Acknowledgements.

(c) The Buyer further acknowledges and agrees that neither the Seller nor any of its Affiliates, nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents or representatives nor any other Person has made any representation or warranty, express or implied, as to the accuracy or completeness of any information regarding the Business, the Sold Assets or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement not expressly set forth in ARTICLE III (as modified by the Disclosure Schedules hereto), and none of the Seller, any of its Affiliates any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents or representatives or any other Person will have or be subject to any liability to the Buyer, any Affiliate of the Buyer, any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents or representatives or any other Person resulting from the distribution to the Buyer (or its Affiliates) or its representatives, or the Buyer’s use of, any such information, including any confidential memoranda distributed on behalf of the Seller or other publications, projections, data room or virtual data room information provided to the Buyer (or its Affiliates) or its representatives, or any other document or information in any form provided to the Buyer (or its Affiliates) or its representatives, including management presentations, in connection with the sale of the Sold Assets, the transactions contemplated hereby and in respect of any other matter or thing whatsoever.

RECITALS WHEREAS, Registration Holder and MSP have entered into that certain Asset Purchase Agreement, dated as of the date hereof (the “Purchase Agreement”); WHEREAS, pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, as of the Closing Date, MSP has acquired the Sold Assets and other rights required to manufacture, market and sell the Business Products (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), but Registration Holder has retained the registration enabling the sale of the Business Products in the European Union (the “Territory”), and which certain products and registration are set forth on Exhibit A (the “Covered Products” and the “Covered Registration,” respectively); WHEREAS, Registration Holder places the Covered Products on the market in the Territory exclusively through the Distribution Agreements (as defined below); and WHEREAS, until such time as MSP can obtain its own registration equivalent to the Covered Registration (the “Replacement Registration”), and therefore act as the legal manufacturer for the Covered Products, Registration Holder shall continue to act as the sole legal manufacturer for the Covered Products in the Territory, and MSP shall provide the manufacturing and other services set forth under this Agreement to support Registration Holder’s activities as the legal manufacturer under the Covered Registration in the Territory, including acting as Registration Holder’s agent under the Distribution Agreements. NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual agreements, provisions and covenants contained in this Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties hereby agree as follows: ARTICLE I DEFINITIONS Section 1.1 Certain Defined Terms.

ARTICLE II MANUFACTURING AND RELATED SERVICES Section 2.1 Distribution Agreements. The Parties acknowledge and agree that to facilitate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the Distribution Agreements were retained by Registration Holder under the Purchase Agreement until expiration or termination of this Agreement, at which time the Distribution Agreements shall be automatically assigned to the MSP without any further action by the Parties. For purposes of this Agreement, Registration Holder hereby appoints MSP as its agent under the Distribution Agreements subject to the terms 3 of this Agreement and MSP hereby accepts such appointment. Notwithstanding the appointment of MSP to provide the services contemplated by this Agreement, and except as expressly provided herein, nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed in any way or for any purpose to constitute MSP or any of its Affiliates as acting as a general or commercial agent of Registration Holder or any of its Affiliates. For all purposes hereunder, MSP is and shall act as an independent contractor of Registration Holder. No partnership, joint venture, alliance, fiduciary or any relationship other than that of independent contractors is created hereby, expressly or by implication. The Parties’ respective rights and obligations hereunder shall be limited to the contractual rights and obligations expressly set forth herein on the terms and conditions set forth herein. Section 2.2 Covered Products. MSP shall manufacture, on behalf of Registration Holder, the Covered Products in compliance with all applicable Laws (including the Covered Registration), the Quality Agreement and the terms and conditions of the applicable Distribution Agreements. Registration Holder shall continue to sell the Covered Products to distributors in accordance with the terms of the applicable Distribution Agreements, including with respect to the terms and conditions of sale and pricing (including any applicable discounts) specified thereunder. Pursuant to the Distribution Agreements, Registration Holder shall continue to accept orders for Covered Products, it being understood that, as specified in the Distribution Agreements, such orders shall be binding on such distributors, but such orders shall be binding on Registration Holder only if and when accepted by Registration Holder in writing, or if MSP, on behalf of Registration Holder, executes delivery of such order. MSP, as agent for Registration Holder under the Distribution Agreements and in compliance with applicable Laws (including the Covered Registration), the Quality Agreement and the applicable Distribution Agreements, shall (i) provide marketing, sales and training support for the distributors under the Distribution Agreements, (ii) package and deliver the Covered Products to the applicable distributors, (iii) handle inspections and returns related to Covered Products, and (iv) service any warranty claims under the product warranty provided by Registration Holder in the Distribution Agreements for any Covered Products sold into the Territory (Registration Holder shall be responsible for the cost of any such warranty service for Covered Products sold prior to the Closing Date in accordance with the terms of Section 5.10 of the Purchase Agreement, and MSP shall be responsible for the cost of any such warranty service for Covered Products sold and delivered after the Closing Date). Upon acceptance of an order from a distributor, Registration Holder will issue a purchase order (the “Product PO”) to MSP. Such purchase order will contain the same information included in the purchased order received by Registration Holder, but at a minimum the same the quantity of product, delivery address and the total sale price. During the Term, neither Registration Holder nor MSP shall offer or sell any extended warranty coverage to customers except on a case-by-case basis mutually agreed by Registration Holder and MSP. In addition, MSP grants Registration Holder with a non-exclusive right to the Sold Intellectual Property (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) with respect to the Business solely to enable Registration Holder to grant the distributors the rights with respect to the Sold Intellectual Property that Registration Holder had previously granted to such distributors under the Distribution Agreements. Such non-exclusive right shall terminate upon the expiration or termination of the Term. Section 2.3 Covered Registration. Registration Holder hereby appoints MSP as its service provider with respect to the Covered Registration and MSP hereby accepts such appointment (the “Registration Management Services”). Under such appointment, MSP is directed and authorized by Registration Holder to do the following, each at MSP’s sole cost and


 
4 expense, but in the name of and as agent of Registration Holder to the extent applicable to acts or omissions occurring after the date of this Agreement: (a) pay any sums due to maintain the Covered Registration in full force and effect or otherwise any way related to such registrations in full force and effect, including any fees due to any Notified Bodies, and MSP shall pay or cause to be paid any such sums when due; (b) make any necessary notifications, filings or submissions with respect to the Covered Registration, and MSP shall make all such notifications, filings and submissions when due; (c) receive and respond to any communications, regulatory letters, regulatory comments, requests for information or similar inquiries from any Regulatory Authority with respect to the Covered Registration, and MSP shall receive and respond to all such matters in consultation with Registration Holder; (d) manage and respond to any inspection or audit by any Regulatory Authority in connection with the Covered Registration and Covered Products, and MSP shall manage and respond thereto with the prior agreement of Registration Holder; and (e) perform other reasonable quality and regulatory activities as MSP and Registration Holder mutually agree; provided, however, with respect to the foregoing (a)-(e) Registration Holder shall promptly (but no greater than 5 business days after receipt) provide all notices, demands, documentations, communications and other materials received by Registration Holder and shall fully cooperate with MSP in MSPs performance of Registration Management Services. MSP shall conduct Registration Management Services on a basis consistent with the past practices of the Business, but in any event, shall not do or fail to do anything that is outside MSP’s ordinary course performance under this Agreement, that would reasonably be expected to jeopardize the validity, force or effect of the Covered Registration as it existed on the Closing Date or Registration Holder’s compliance with Laws applicable to the Covered Registration. In addition, with respect to each of the Registration Management Services, MSP shall (i) keep Registration Holder reasonably informed regarding such activities, including promptly providing Registration Holder (5 business days after receipt) with copies of all communications, regulatory letters, regulatory comments, requests for information or similar inquiries received from any Regulatory Authority, and (ii) provide Registration Holder with copies of all notifications, filings or submissions under the Covered Registration as far in advance of filing as is reasonably practicable (and, in any event, at least five (5) Business Days prior to filing to the extent reasonably practicable), permit Registration Holder the right to review and approve (acting reasonably) any such responses, notifications, filings and submissions, and incorporate any reasonable comments thereto submitted by Registration Holder prior to filing. For the avoidance of doubt, Registration Holder shall be allowed to participate in a reasonable way, if Registration Holder so desires, in any of the activities performed by MSP as part of the Registration Management Services, including by sending Registration Holder’s delegates to take part in any regulatory audits, and MSP shall provide Registration Holder with full access to any communications, documents or other information, whether developed by MSP or by any third parties (including any Regulatory Authorities) that pertain to such services to the extent reasonably necessary to protect Registration Holder’s interests. For purposes of this Agreement, MSP’s initial designated representative is Jill Godfrey and Registration Holder’s initial designated representative is Michael Muren. The Parties can change designated representatives upon written notice to the other Party. To the extent this Agreement provides for or contemplates communication between Registration Holder and MSP, such communication shall be undertaken by the Parties respective designated representatives. Section 2.4 Replacement Registration. As soon as reasonably practicable after the Closing Date, and continuing throughout the remainder of the Term, MSP shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to make any notifications, filings or submissions, take all other 5 actions, and thereafter diligently pursue, the issuance from the relevant Regulatory Authorities of the Replacement Registration and, as a result, become the sole legal manufacturer of the Covered Products in the Territory. MSP shall keep Registration Holder reasonably informed regarding MSP’s progress in obtaining the Replacement Registration, notify Registration Holder in writing when the Replacement Registration is issued and furnish Registration Holder with a true and accurate copy thereof. Section 2.5 Covered Product Materials. MSP shall procure and purchase all raw materials, components, supplies (including labels and packaging) and other materials (collectively, “Covered Product Materials”) that are to be used by it in any aspect of manufacturing, packaging or shipping the Covered Products from suppliers that were approved by Registration Holder for such purpose as of immediately prior to the Closing Date and/or from suppliers engaged by MSP after the Closing and otherwise in accordance with the specifications set forth in the Distribution Agreements and applicable Laws, including the Covered Registration, and the Quality Agreement. MSP shall promptly notify Registration Holder in writing of any new supplier engaged by MSP after the Closing. MSP shall inspect all Covered Product Materials using the same inspection measures in all material respects that were used in connection with the manufacture of the Covered Products immediately before the Closing Date and shall be solely responsible for purchasing, receiving, storing, maintaining, using and disposing of all Covered Product Materials, in each case, in accordance with the specifications set forth in the Distribution Agreements and applicable Laws, including the Covered Registration, and the Quality Agreement. For so long as a Covered Product is manufactured, sold or distributed pursuant to the Covered Registration, MSP shall ensure that the appearance and text of any labeling, packaging, promotional, advertising, sale and marketing materials, as well as all informational pieces, product literature and any other materials (whether in electronic or hardcopy format) intended for use in furtherance of promoting, marketing and distributing the Covered Products, to the extent the foregoing were created, amended or in any way altered by MSP, comply with the specifications set forth in the Distribution Agreements and applicable Laws, including the Covered Registration, and the Quality Agreement. Section 2.6 Title and Risk of Loss. Title to, and risk of loss for, all Covered Product Materials and Covered Products, wherever located, shall be with MSP and pass to the purchaser that purchased the Covered Product from distributor upon delivery to such purchaser , except that Registration Holder shall be deemed to own or control (but not assume any risk of loss for) Covered Product Materials and Covered Products to the extent required under the Covered Registration. Section 2.7 Production Decisions. The Parties acknowledge that the Covered Product Materials and Covered Products are for the ultimate benefit of MSP and its Affiliates as part of the Business transferred pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. Accordingly, MSP shall procure Covered Product Materials and manufacture Covered Products according to its own business decisions, including with respect to orders, volumes, forecasts, lead times, inventory levels, downtime, labor arrangements, capacities and production priorities, as long as such Covered Products are manufactured, sold and distributed in accordance with the specifications set forth in the Distribution Agreements and applicable Laws including the Covered Registration, and the Quality Agreement. Section 2.8 Inspection and Audit Rights; Reporting. 6 (a) MSP agrees to maintain accurate and complete books and records regarding its activities under this Agreement, including correspondence, instructions, invoices, receipts, quality assurance records (including production samples and production data) and similar documents and data relating to MSP’s performance hereunder. MSP agrees to keep such records in sufficient detail to enable Registration Holder to verify MSP’s compliance with this Agreement and to enable Registration Holder to continue to comply with applicable Laws, including the Covered Registration. MSP will keep such records for a period of time as determined by its normal document retention policies, but in any event not less than five (5) years after the date of the transaction to which those records relate, or longer if required by applicable Laws. (b) Upon reasonable advance notice, MSP will (i) furnish Registration Holder with copies of reasonably requested books and records related to MSP’s performance under this Agreement and (ii) permit Registration Holder (and its representatives) to examine and audit all of MSP’s books and records relating to its activities under this Agreement, in each case, of (i) and (ii) only to the extent necessary for Registration Holder to verify MSP’s compliance with this Agreement and subject to restrictions implemented by MSP in good faith to (A) ensure compliance with applicable Laws, (B) preserve any applicable privilege (including the attorney-client privilege), or (C) comply with any applicable contractual confidentiality obligations; provided that if MSP is in material breach of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements in this Agreement (or Registration Holder has a reasonable basis to assert any such breach), then any such examination and audit will be permitted upon not less than five Business Day’s notice and, if a material breach is confirmed, the reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the examination and audit will be the responsibility of MSP. (c) Registration Holder (and its representatives) may, upon reasonable notice and at times and frequencies reasonably acceptable to MSP, visit and inspect any facility that is involved in the design, manufacture, final inspection, sale or distribution of any Covered Product. Registration Holder will bear its own expenses with regard to any such visits and will abide by any applicable policies relating to such facility provided to Registration Holder prior to such visit. If reasonably requested by Registration Holder, MSP will cause appropriate individuals working on the activities relating to this Agreement to be available for meetings during any such visit and inspection to the extent reasonably practicable. The visitation and inspection rights covered by this Section 2.8 include the right to inspect the manufacturing, packaging and storage facilities and processes relating to the actual or potential manufacture, sale and distribution of Covered Product Materials and Covered Products (including quality control measures) and the machinery, equipment and materials used in all such processes as well as any documentation pertaining thereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, if MSP is then in material breach of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements in this Agreement (or Registration Holder has a reasonable basis to assert any such breach), then Registration Holder may visit and inspect any facility to exercise its audit rights in this Section on not less than five Business Day’s notice and, in the event of such material breach, the reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of such visit and inspection will be the responsibility of MSP. (d) Nothing in this Section 2.8 shall relieve MSP of any of its obligations under this Agreement, nor shall such provisions require Registration Holder (or any of its representatives) to conduct any audit or inspection. 7 Section 2.9 Quality Management System. All quality management system procedures, work instructions, forms and other documentation in use by Registration Holder as of the date of this Agreement (“Quality Materials”) will be made fully available to MSP and will be followed or used by MSP, as applicable, in compliance with the terms of the Quality Agreement. Registration Holder may, in its discretion, continue to rely on, and have full access to, any Quality Materials as is applicable to its responsibilities under this Agreement and the Quality Agreement. To the extent the Quality Materials are not Sold Assets, they are licensed to MSP as Licensed Intellectual Property. Section 2.10 Loss of Covered Registration. Neither Registration Holder nor MSP shall take any action or omit to take any action outside of the ordinary course performance under this Agreement that would, or would reasonably be expected to, result in the loss of the Covered Registration. ARTICLE III CONSIDERATION Section 3.1 Consideration. For orders accepted in accordance with this Agreement for Covered Products during the Term, Registration Holder shall invoice the applicable distributor in accordance with the terms of the applicable Distribution Agreement based on the agreed payment terms listed in the quotation or accepted order and Registration Holder shall receive from the applicable distributor the purchase price for such Covered Products. Upon Registration Holder’s receipt of payment from a distributor with respect to a Covered Product, including any customer advance payments and any subsequent payments related thereto (each, a “Covered Product Payment”), Registration Holder shall remit to MSP the Covered Product Payment to satisfy amounts due under the Product PO less any Covered Product Transaction Expenses within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of such amount or amounts by Registration Holder. For purposes of this Agreement, “Covered Product Transaction Expenses” means any and all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Registration Holder with respect to the sale of any Covered Product, including, without limitation, for example, freight cost over and above the amount invoiced to the applicable distributor and any bank fees related to the receipt and subsequent transfer of such Covered Product Payment. For the avoidance of doubt, the Parties acknowledge and agree that Registration Holder’s obligation with respect to payments for Covered Products under this Agreement is to pass through such payments received from distributors under the applicable Distribution Agreements (less the deduction of any Covered Product Transaction Expenses) only if and when such payments are actually received by Registration Holder and Registration Holder shall have no liability to MSP if any distributor fails to pay or is slow to pay any amounts owed under its applicable Distribution Agreement. Upon MSP’s request, Registration Holder shall enforce its rights under the applicable Distribution Agreement against the distributor. MSP, as agent for Registration Holder under the Distribution Agreements, shall have the right and responsibility to collect any such delinquent amounts in its sole discretion. Section 3.2 Taxes.

8 assessed on any of the transactions hereunder. MSP shall not bear any taxes on Registration Holder’s income. ARTICLE IV WARRANTIES AND COMPLIANCE Section 4.1 Manufacturing Warranties. As between Registration Holder and MSP under the terms of this Agreement, MSP shall procure, purchase, receive, store, maintain, use and dispose of all Covered Product Materials and manufacture, store, maintain, sell and distribute all Covered Products in compliance with the specifications set forth in the Distribution Agreements and the applicable Laws, including the Covered Registration, and the Quality Agreement, and perform all Registration Management Services in compliance with the terms of this Agreement, applicable Laws, including the Covered Registration, and the Quality Agreement. Except as expressly set forth herein, each Party acknowledges and agrees that neither Party makes any representation or warranty with respect to the activities and transactions contemplated hereby. EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT, THE PURCHASE AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE AGREEMENTS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY, NEITHER PARTY NOR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES MAKES, NOR IS EITHER PARTY OR ITS AFFILIATES RELYING ON, ANY REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, WRITTEN OR ORAL, AT LAW OR IN EQUITY, WITH RESPECT TO THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY IN REGARD TO QUALITY, PERFORMANCE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, COMMERCIAL UTILITY, MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS OF ANY COVERED PRODUCTS OR SERVICES FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND EACH PARTY AND ITS RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES HEREBY EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS THE SAME. Section 4.2 Compliance with Laws and Regulations. Each Party hereto shall be responsible for its own compliance with any and all Laws applicable to its performance under this Agreement. ARTICLE V LIABILITY AND INDEMNIFICATION Section 5.1 Limitation of Liability. Registration Holder’s sole role under this Agreement is to enable the Registration Holder to remain the legal manufacturer of the Covered Products after the Closing for as long as Registration Holder is legally entitled to do so and until such time as MSP obtains the Replacement Registration and can therefore place the Covered Products in the market in the Territory under its own name as the legal manufacturer. Accordingly, except for Losses or Liabilities arising as a result of Registration Holder’s fraud or willful misconduct or Registration Holder’s breach of its express obligations this Agreement (e.g., payment obligations under Section 3.1, or confidentiality obligations under Section 7.4), Registration Holder shall have no liability (including any liability for the acts and omissions of its Affiliates, Representatives, subcontractors or its or their respective directors, officers, employees, Affiliates, agents or Representatives other than in the case of fraud or willful misconduct of any 9 of the foregoing) to MSP or any other Buyer Indemnified Persons for any Losses or Liabilities of any kind in connection with the activities and transactions contemplated hereby. The Parties acknowledge and agree that Registration Holder makes no representation or warranty regarding the need for, or receipt of, any approval by any Regulatory Authority, including any Notified Body, regarding the activities and transactions contemplated by this Agreement and MSP expressly assumes the risk that a Regulatory Authority challenges the validity of such activities or transactions or otherwise limits, restricts or prohibits the Parties from engaging in such activities or transactions for the purposes specified herein. Section 5.2 Indemnity. MSP shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Registration Holder and each of the other Seller Indemnified Persons from and against any and all Losses and Liabilities to the extent relating to, arising out of, by reason of or otherwise in connection with a Third Party Claim (including from any Regulatory Authority) or otherwise relating to, arising out of, by reason of or otherwise in connection with (a) any breach of MSP’s representations, warranties, covenants or agreements in this Agreement (including any failure of a Covered Product to comply with the specifications set forth in the applicable Distribution Agreements or the applicable Laws, including the Covered Registration, and the Quality Agreement) or any obligations as the agent of Registration Holder under the Distribution Agreements or as agent of Registration Holder with respect to the Covered Registration, (b) any violation of applicable Laws (including the Covered Registration), (c) Registration Holder’s inability to comply with the terms of this Agreement, including completing any pending orders under the Distribution Agreements, if Registration Holder is limited, restricted or prohibited by any applicable Regulatory Authority from placing the Covered Products on the market in the Territory as the legal manufacturer of such products under the Covered Registration, (d) any actual or alleged defect in, or injury to Persons or property related to, any Covered Product, (e) any recall with respect to a Covered Product, or (f) MSP’s negligence or intentional misconduct in connection with the activities and transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided, however, (i) that the foregoing shall not apply to any Losses or Liabilities to the extent relating to, arising out of, by reason of or otherwise in connection with any breach of Seller’s representations and warranties set forth in Article III of the Purchase Agreement or Registration Holder’s act or omission involving fraud or willful misconduct under this Agreement or the Purchase Agreement, and (ii) the Losses and Liabilities shall be subject to MSP’s obligations in this Section 5.02 only to the extent they directly relate to or affect Registration Holders’ activities with the Business and other areas of Registration Holder or Seller Indemnified Person’ other activities or business. MSP’s indemnification obligations under this Agreement are separate and distinct from any indemnification obligations that Buyer or Seller may have under the Purchase Agreement. The provisions of Sections 6.7; 6.8; 6.9; and 6.10 of the Purchase Agreement are incorporated herein by reference, mutatis mutandis, and shall govern any claims for indemnification hereunder. Section 5.3 Insurance. Without limiting MSP’s indemnification obligations herein, throughout the Term, MSP agrees to procure and maintain in full force and effect valid and collectible insurance policies in connection with its activities contemplated hereunder, which policies shall be satisfactory to the Registration Holder in its reasonable discretion. Upon Registration Holder’s written request, MSP shall provide to Registration Holder a certificate of coverage or other written evidence reasonably satisfactory to Registration Holder of such insurance coverage not more frequently than on an annual basis. 10 ARTICLE VI TERMINATION Section 6.1 Term. Subject to Section 6.2, this Agreement will remain in effect only until the earlier of (a) such time as MSP has successfully obtained the Replacement Registration (and as a result becomes the legal manufacturer with respect to the Covered Products) and MSP shall have provided a copy of such Replacement Registration to Registration Holder in accordance with Section 2.4, (b) any Regulatory Authority notifies the Parties in writing that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are not in compliance with the Covered Registration or otherwise prohibited by applicable Laws, (c) the expiration, or any challenge to the validity of the Covered Registration as regards the Covered Products, for any reason, provided that Registration Holder will first notify MSP of any challenge to the validity of the Covered Registration and the parties will work in good faith to determine a workaround, and this Agreement will only terminate, upon written demand, if the parties cannot find a solution to challenge to the validity of the Covered Registration after reasonable efforts by both parties for at least thirty (30) days, and (d) the eighteen (18)-month anniversary of the Closing Date.

Exhibit B Quality Agreement [Omitted.] 2 Exhibit C European Distribution Agreements [Omitted.] EXHIBIT H 1 TRANSITIONAL USE AGREEMENT This Transitional Use Agreement (this “Agreement”) is made as of the 5th day of December, 2022 (the “Commencement Date”), by and between Parker-Hannifin Corporation, an Ohio corporation (hereinafter referred to as “Parker”), and EKSO Bionics Holdings, Inc., a Nevada corporation (hereinafter referred to as “EKSO”). WHEREAS, simultaneously herewith, Parker and EKSO are entering into that certain Asset Purchase Agreement, dated as of the date hereof (the “Asset Purchase Agreement”), by which EKSO shall purchase certain assets of Parker not including that certain real estate described herein; and WHEREAS, as a condition of the Asset Purchase Agreement, Parker shall provide to EKSO the use of portions of the Building (as defined below) for use in connection with the transition of the Business (as defined in the Asset Purchase Agreement) on the terms set forth herein. NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises, covenants, terms and conditions herein contained and intending to be legally bound, as well as other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Parker and EKSO hereby agree as follows: SECTION 1. PREMISES 1.1 Grant of Premises and Building. Parker does hereby grant to EKSO the exclusive (subject to access by Parker and its employees, agents and contractors to provide services as required by this Agreement) right to use and occupy a portion of the property highlighted in red on the drawing attached hereto as Exhibit A and incorporated by reference herein (the “Premises”) in the building (the “Building”) located at 1390 Highland Rd. E., Macedonia, Ohio 44056 (the “Land”; together with the Premises and the Building, the “Property”) and all fixtures, improvements and necessary furnishings located in the Premises. 1.2 Grant of Common Areas. In addition, Parker grants EKSO the non-exclusive right to use, in common with Parker and its employees, agents, guests and contractors, all common areas that have historically been used in the operation of the Business, including, without limitation, the areas identified on Exhibit A attached hereto, the entrances, hallways, bathrooms, the kitchen and cafeteria area, the parking lots adjacent to the Building on a first-come, first-serve basis, the loading docks and receiving areas, and, upon one (1) business days’ notice, the use of conference rooms as identified on Exhibit A on an “as available” basis. Without limiting the foregoing, EKSO shall have the right to use not less than twenty- four (24) parking spaces in the Building parking areas. 1.3 Authorized Use. EKSO will use the Premises for the operation of the Business (as defined in the Asset Purchase Agreement) and for no other use or purpose without the consent of Parker, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. SECTION 2. TERM 2.1 Term. The term of this Agreement will begin on the Commencement Date and continue for a period of one (1) year plus the number of days from the Commencement Date until the end of the calendar month in which the Commencement Date falls (the “Term”); provided, however, that if at the end of the Term the Transitional Manufacturing and Services Agreement between Parker and EKSO (the “TMSA”) remains in effect, the Term shall be extended so that it will expire upon the expiration of the term of the TMSA. EKSO shall have the right to terminate this Agreement with thirty (30) days’ written notice for any reason before the expiration of the Term, as extended; provided, however, that, EKSO shall remain liable for all prorated amounts and obligations up to such early termination date. 2 SECTION 3. RENT 3.1 Gross Rent. EKSO hereby covenants and agrees to pay to Parker, in advance, each month beginning on the first day of the first calendar month of the Term, Gross Rent in the amount of $2,932.40 per month (the “Gross Rent”), which represents the agreed aggregate costs and expenses related to the Premises to be reimbursed by EKSO. In the event the Commencement Date falls on a day other than the first day of the month, the first payment of Gross Rent will be made on the Commencement Date in a prorated amount for the applicable portion of the calendar month in which the Commencement Date occurs. 3.2 Payment. Gross Rent payments will be due and payable on the first day of each calendar month, without demand and will be made to Parker at the address set forth in Section 10, or such other address provided to EKSO in writing by Parker. 3.3 Additional Rent. EKSO undertakes to pay to Parker all sums of money, other than Gross Rent, as will be become due and payable under this Agreement; such sums of money will be hereinafter referred to as the “Additional Rent”. The Gross Rent and the Additional Rent will be herein collectively referred to as the “Rent”. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is understood that, except as may be otherwise specifically provided for herein, this is a “gross” arrangement and Parker is generally obligated for all costs relating to the operation of the Property (including the payment of all real estate taxes and assessments) without reimbursement by EKSO other than for the Gross Rent and the Additional Rent. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, EKSO shall in no event have any obligation to perform or to pay directly, or to reimburse Parker for, all or any portion of any premiums, fees, charges, costs and expenses for taxes, insurance premiums, operating expenses, common area charges, utilities or any other expenses for the operation, management, maintenance and repair of the Premises or the Building, except for any maintenance or repair necessitated by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of EKSO or its employees, agents, guests or contractors. SECTION 4. UTILITIES/SERVICES 4.1 Services to be Provided. Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, Parker will furnish to EKSO, at Parker’s sole cost and expense, all services previously provided, and in substantially the manner previously provided, to the Premises and common areas prior to the Commencement Date, including, without limitation, the following utilities and other building services for EKSO’s use and occupancy of the Premises in connection with the operation of EKSO’s business therein: (i) heating, ventilation and air-conditioning; (ii) electrical current; (iii) water and sewer; (iv) cleaning and maintenance of the common areas, parking areas and driveways and all maintenance of the exterior and structure of the Building, including the roof; (v) security services (including provision of required keys and badges); (vi) the removal of trash and rubbish from dumpsters outside the Premises; (vi) compressed air; (vii) repair and maintenance to the extent specified elsewhere in this Agreement; (viii) pest control; (ix) fire extinguisher and first aid kit monitoring and maintenance; (x) telecommunications/ ISP/ cable services; and (xi) janitorial services within the Premises. 4.2 Interruption of Services. EKSO understands, acknowledges and agrees that any one or more of the utilities or other Building services identified in Section 4.1 or otherwise hereunder may be interrupted by reason of accident or emergency caused by a third party or by other causes beyond Parker’s control until certain repairs, alterations or improvements can be made. Parker will not be liable in damages or otherwise for any such failure or interruption of any utility service when such failure is beyond Parker’s control and no such failure or interruption will entitle EKSO to terminate this Agreement or withhold sums due hereunder. If EKSO is unable to use the Premises as intended as a consequence of interruption of utilities or other services, interference with access, legal restrictions, natural disaster, civil unrest, epidemic or other infectious disease (including due to governmental restriction or widely followed voluntary practice)


 
3 , the presence of hazardous substances not brought onto the Premises by EKSO or similar occurrences outside of EKSO’s control, and such inability continues for more than two (2) days, EKSO may abate all Rent hereunder until such interference is eliminated. SECTION 5. INSURANCE AND INDEMNITY 5.1 Liability Insurance. At its sole cost and expense, EKSO will, commencing on the first day of the Term and continuing throughout the entire Term, maintain a comprehensive commercial public liability insurance policy with policy limits no less than $1,000,000 per occurrence and $2,000,000 in the aggregate against any liability arising out of the use, occupancy, repair, maintenance or alteration of the Premises. Parker will be named as an additional insured on all such insurance. EKSO shall provide to Parker, at Parker’s written request, a certificate of insurance evidencing such coverage and such insurance may not be cancelled without first providing Parker thirty (30) days’ advance written notice. 5.2 Subrogation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Parker and EKSO hereby mutually waive their respective rights of recovery against each other, or against the officers, employees, agents, representatives, customers and business invitees of such other party, for any loss insurable by fire, extended coverage and other “all risk” or “special form” property insurance policies. Each party will obtain any special endorsements, if required by the insurer, to evidence compliance with the aforementioned waiver. All of Parker’s and EKSO’s repair and indemnity obligations under this Agreement shall be subject to the wavier contained in this paragraph. 5.3 Indemnity of Parker by EKSO. Subject to the waiver of subrogation in Section 5.2, EKSO will indemnify, defend and save Parker, its affiliates, partners, members, directors, officers, employees and agents harmless from and against all losses, claims, costs, liabilities, fines and penalties of any nature (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) (collectively, “Claims”) arising or occurring, from (i) EKSO’s failure to comply with the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, or (ii) EKSO’s use of the Property. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Parker shall not be released or indemnified from any all losses, damages, liabilities, claims, attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses arising from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Parker or its agents, contractors, licensees or invitees or a breach of Parker’s obligations or representations under this Agreement. 5.4 Indemnity of EKSO by Parker. Subject to the waiver of subrogation in Section 5.2, Parker will indemnify, defend and save EKSO, its affiliates partners, members, directors, officers, employees and agents harmless from and against all Claims arising or occurring, from and after the Commencement Date, out of (i) Parker’s failure to comply with the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, (ii) any personal injury or death, damage to or destruction of the Property caused by the negligence or willful acts or omissions of Parker or its representatives, or (iii) any other Claim made by any affiliate, partner, member, director, manager, officer, employee, visitor, invitee, licensee, lessee or lender of Parker against EKSO arising out of Parker’s use or ownership of the Property. 5.5 Environmental Matters Excepted. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the indemnities provided in this Section will not apply to any matters arising out of or in connection with Environmental Laws, hazardous materials or the environmental conditions of the Property, which matters will be solely governed by the provisions of Section 12 of this Agreement. SECTION 6. WASTE AND COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS 6.1 Waste. EKSO covenants that it will use and occupy the Premises in a careful, safe, lawful and proper manner and will not commit waste therein. 4 6.2 Compliance with Laws. EKSO will (i) use the Premises and conduct its business thereon in a safe, careful, reputable and lawful manner and (ii) comply with the covenants and laws, rules, regulations, orders, ordinances, directions and requirements of any governmental authority or agency, now in force or that may hereafter be in force, including without limitation those that will impose upon Parker or EKSO any duty with respect to or triggered by a change in the use or occupation of, or any improvement or alteration to, the Premises, excepting any mechanical or structural improvements to the Building or common areas. Both parties will not do or permit anything to be done in or about the Premises or the Common Areas that will in any way obstruct or interfere with the rights of the other party, other tenants, or occupants of the Building or injure them. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, EKSO shall not be required to comply with or cause the Premises to comply with any laws, rules, regulations or insurance requirements requiring the construction of alterations unless such compliance is necessitated solely due to EKSO’s particular use of the Premises (other than for the Business). SECTION 7. IMPROVEMENTS AND REPAIR 7.1 Repair and Maintenance of Building. Parker will make all necessary repairs to the Premises, the exterior walls, exterior doors, windows, corridors and other common areas, and Parker will keep the Building in a safe, clean and neat condition and use reasonable efforts to keep all equipment used in common with other tenants in good condition and repair, provided, however, that to the extent any of the foregoing items require repair because of the negligence, misuse or default of EKSO, its employees or agents, Parker will make such repairs solely at EKSO’s expense. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Parker shall, in a commercially reasonable manner, perform and construct, and EKSO shall have no responsibility to perform or construct, any repair, maintenance or improvements (a) necessitated by the acts or omissions of Parker or any other occupant of the Building, or their respective agents, employees or contractors, (b) for which Parker has a right of reimbursement from others, (c) to the structural portions of the Premises or the Building, (d) which could be treated as a “capital expenditure” under generally accepted accounting principles, and (e) to the heating, ventilating, air conditioning, electrical, water, sewer, plumbing and other building systems serving the Premises and/or the Building. 7.2 Alterations. EKSO will not make alterations in or to the Premises unless and until the plans have been approved by Parker in writing, which approval will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, and upon such approval such alterations shall become a part of the Premises and remain at the expiration of the Agreement unless EKSO, at its option, removes the same and restores the Premises at EKSO’s cost prior to such expiration. EKSO will ensure that all alterations will be made in accordance with all applicable laws, regulations and building codes, in a good and workmanlike manner and of quality equal to or better than the original construction of the Building. If any lien is filed against the Premises for work claimed to have been done for or material claimed to have been furnished to EKSO, EKSO will cause such lien to be discharged of record within thirty (30) days after filing. EKSO will indemnify Parker from all costs, losses, expenses and attorneys’ fees in connection with any such lien. EKSO’s trade fixtures, furniture, equipment and other personal property installed in the Premises (“EKSO’s Property”) shall at all times be and remain EKSO’s property. At any time EKSO may remove EKSO’s Property from the Premises, provided that EKSO repairs all damage caused by such removal. Parker shall have no lien or other interest in any item of EKSO’s Property. SECTION 8. DAMAGE OR DESTRUCTION If the Premises, or so much of the Building as to cause the Premises to be uninhabitable, are damaged by any casualty, and the damage (exclusive of any property or improvements installed by EKSO in the Premises) can be repaired within ninety (90) days, Parker will repair such damage as soon as practicable and this Agreement will continue in full force and effect and Rent will be abated as set forth below. If the Premises, or so much of the Building as to cause the Premises to be uninhabitable, are 5 damaged by any casualty, and the damage (exclusive of any property of EKSO or improvements installed by EKSO in the Premises) cannot be repaired within ninety (90) days, Parker may, at Parker’s option, either (i) repair such damage as soon as practicable at Parker’s expense, in which event this Agreement will continue in full force and effect but Rent will be abated as set forth below, or (ii) give written notice to EKSO within thirty (30) days after the date of the occurrence of such damage of Parker’s intention to terminate this Agreement, in which event this Agreement will terminate as of the date of the occurrence of such damage and EKSO will surrender the Premises in its as-is condition, but with EKSO’s Property removed, within thirty (30) days after receipt of such notice. If the Premises are damaged by any peril and Parker does not terminate this Agreement, then EKSO shall have the option to terminate this Agreement if the Premises cannot be, or are not in fact, fully restored by Parker to their prior condition within ninety (90) days after the damage. Whenever Rent is to be abated under this Agreement, all Rent shall be equitably abated based upon the extent to which EKSO’s use of the Premises is diminished. SECTION 9. ASSIGNMENT EKSO shall not assign this Agreement or sublet all or any portion of the Premises without the Parker’s advance prior written consent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, EKSO may, without Parker’s prior written consent and without constituting an assignment or sublease hereunder, sublease all of the Premises or assign this Agreement to (a) an entity controlling, controlled by or under common control with EKSO, (b) an entity related to EKSO by merger, consolidation or reorganization, or (c) a purchaser of a substantial portion of EKSO’s assets. A sale, transfer, issuance, cancellation or change of ownership of EKSO’s stock or other equity interests shall not be deemed an assignment, subletting or any other transfer of this Agreement or the Premises.

In the event: (a) EKSO defaults in its obligation to pay the Rent or any other amount payable hereunder and such default continues for a period of five (5) days after written notice has been given of such default by Parker to EKSO; (b) EKSO fails to perform any other provision of this Agreement to be performed or observed by EKSO (other than the obligations set forth in Section 11.1(a) above) and any such failure will continue uncorrected for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice to EKSO thereof, unless such failure cannot reasonably be corrected within such thirty (30) day period, then if EKSO will not within such period have commenced and continued in good faith to correct such failure; (c) EKSO files for voluntary bankruptcy or is adjudicated bankrupt in involuntary proceedings and such proceeding is not vacated within sixty (60) days; (d) a receiver or trustee is appointed over EKSO’s property; or (e) any execution, attachment or other order of court will be issued upon or against the interest of EKSO in this Agreement and will continue for a period of thirty (30) days after notice; then: Parker, at any time thereafter, and prior to the curing of default, at its election and without further notice, may terminate this Agreement, re-enter into possession of the Premises with process of law, and expel, remove or put out EKSO or any other person or persons occupying the Premises, using such forces as may be necessary to do so and to repossess the Premises, and sue for and recover all Rent earned up to the date of such entry; or the Parker may, without terminating this Agreement, terminate the EKSO’s right of possession, re-enter and resume possession of the Premises, as aforesaid, and relet the same for the remainder of the Term at the best rent Parker can obtain, for the account of EKSO, who will make good any deficiency to Parker upon demand from Parker; or the Parker may sue and recover all rents accrued or accruing under this Agreement without declaring this Agreement terminated or entering into possession of the Premises to terminate EKSO’s possession. All of the foregoing rights of Parker will be without prejudice to any remedies of Parker under law to recover any other damage suffered by Parker by reason of any default of EKSO in performance of its duties and obligations under the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Regardless of the remedies Parker pursues after a default by EKSO hereunder, Parker will be required to use reasonable commercial efforts to relet the Premises at the best rent Parker can obtain for the account of EKSO and to otherwise mitigate any damages resulting from any


 
7 default by EKSO, and EKSO shall not in any event be liable for any damages reasonably mitigable by Parker. Parker waives any right of distraint, distress for rent or landlord’s lien that may arise at law. SECTION 12. ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS 12.1 EKSO Indemnification. EKSO will comply with all Environmental Laws (as hereinafter defined) in connection with its occupancy and use of the Premises and/or the Property. EKSO agrees to indemnify Parker with respect to any out-of-pocket cost or damages suffered by Parker with respect to the presence, release, spill, discharge or emission of Hazardous Materials by EKSO or its agents, employees or invitees in, on, at or under the Premises or the Property (or the soil, air, improvements, groundwater or surface water thereof) or with respect to any violation of any Environmental Laws (as defined in the Asset Purchase Agreement) by EKSO or its agents, employees or invitees. “Hazardous Material” shall mean any material which is now or hereafter regulated by any Environmental Law because it could pose a hazard to the environment, natural resources or human health. 12.2 Parker Indemnification. Under no circumstance shall EKSO be liable to Parker for, and Parker shall indemnify EKSO with respect to any out-of-pocket cost or damages suffered by EKSO with respect to the presence, release, spill, discharge or emission of Hazardous Materials on or about the Property, or the soil, air, improvements, groundwater or surface water thereof, except to the extent due to the presence, release, spill, discharge, exacerbation, disturbance or emission of Hazardous Materials by EKSO or its agents, invitees or employees. SECTION 13. EMINENT DOMAIN If all or any substantial part of the Building or common areas will be acquired by the exercise of eminent domain, Parker may terminate this Agreement by giving sixty (60) days’ written notice to EKSO within fifteen (15) days after possession thereof is so taken. If all or any part of the Premises will be acquired by the exercise of eminent domain so that the Premises will become unusable by EKSO for the permitted use, EKSO may terminate this Agreement by giving written notice to Parker as of the date possession thereof is so taken. All damages awarded will belong to Parker; provided, however, that EKSO may claim dislocation damages if such amount is not subtracted from Parker’s award. SECTION 14.

Any entry by Parker and Parker’s agents shall not impair EKSO’s operations more than reasonably necessary, and shall comply with EKSO’s reasonable security measures provided that it is understood that EKSO shall not install locks preventing access to the Premises without providing Parker with keys, codes or keycards for such access. 8 SECTION 15. MISCELLANEOUS 15.1 No Waiver. No waiver of any condition or covenant of this Agreement or of the breach of any such covenant or condition will be deemed to constitute a waiver of any subsequent breach of such covenant or condition or to justify the non-observance on any other occasion of the same or of any other covenant or condition hereof, nor will the acceptance of any Rent by Parker at any time when EKSO is in default under any other covenant or condition hereof be construed as a waiver of such or any other or continuing default or of Parker’s rights in the event of such other default. 15.2 Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the exhibits attached hereto set forth all of the covenants, promises, agreements, conditions, and understandings of the parties hereto with respect to the Premises.

Time is of the essence in the performance of all terms and conditions of this Agreement in which time is an element. 15.5 Force Majeure.

In no event will any delay or hindrance in, or any prevention of, the observance or performance of any covenant or obligation of Parker or EKSO under this Agreement due to a properly noticed force majeure event constitute a default by such party, or entitle the other party to take any remedial or enforcement action, under this Agreement. 15.6 Terminology; Captions. Where the context so requires or such interpretation is appropriate, any word used herein denoting gender will include all genders, natural or artificial, and the singular and plural will be interchangeable. The term “Section” will refer to all paragraphs under the caption in question, where appropriate.
