“With respect to each Product, the parties shall use reasonable best efforts to ensure that, effective as of the Closing or the applicable Deferred Closing (as applicable), or as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter, either (A) (1) the Product Registrations that constitute Transferred Assets shall have transferred to, or shall have been approved in writing by the applicable Governmental Entity for transfer to, Buyer or its designee or (2) Buyer shall have obtained a Product Registration (including any re-registrations) that enables Buyer or its designee to manufacture, distribute and market such Product in each applicable jurisdiction, or (B) Buyer or its designee otherwise shall have either (1) acceded to Seller’s or its Affiliate’s rights in respect of manufacturing, distributing and marketing such Products under such Product Registrations, including by Seller or an Affiliate of Seller designating Buyer or its designee as an authorized agent with respect to such Products, or (2) been designated as a manufacturing, sales or distribution agent with respect to the Products under such Product Registrations, in the case of this clause (B), pursuant to reasonable, lawful and customary arrangements to effectuate the foregoing (the time at which any of the foregoing occurs with respect to a Product Registration (or, if earlier, the expiration of such Product Registration in accordance with its terms), the “Product Registration Transfer Time”). If the Product Registration Transfer Time shall not have occurred on the Closing Date or the applicable Deferred Closing Date (as applicable) with respect to any such Product Registration, until such Product Registration Transfer Time with respect to such Product Registration, (X) the parties will continue to use reasonable best efforts to ensure that the Product Registration Transfer Time with respect to such Product occurs as soon as reasonably practicable after the Closing or the applicable Deferred Closing Date (as applicable), (Y) Seller shall, and shall cause its subsidiaries to, consent to Buyer’s and its Affiliates’ use of such Product Registration for the continued operation of the Business with respect to such Product after the Closing or the applicable Deferred Closing Date (as applicable), and (Z) if requested by Buyer, Seller shall, and shall cause its subsidiaries to, provide Buyer, to the fullest extent possible, pursuant to an arrangement reasonably satisfactory to Seller and Buyer, the exclusive net benefit of such Product Registration (including, to the extent not able to be conducted by Buyer and its Affiliates after the Closing or the applicable Deferred Closing Date (as applicable) as result of the failure of the Product Registration Transfer Time to occur, by Seller and its subsidiaries continuing to conduct the Business with respect to such Product in substantially the same manner and with substantially the same level of efforts and resources as conducted by Seller and its subsidiaries prior to the Closing) by passing through all revenues received by Seller and its
-11-

subsidiaries with respect to the Products under such Product Registration from the Closing Date or the applicable Deferred Closing Date (as applicable) through such Product Registration Transfer Time, less only such amount of costs and expenses (including Taxes) as Seller and its Affiliates incur or become liable for in connection with any such arrangements with respect to such Products (other than any such costs and expenses that are duplicative of documented costs and expenses actually incurred by Buyer and its Affiliates in connection the conduct of the Business with respect to such Products). The parties agree they will cooperate to minimize the costs and expenses incurred in connection with the foregoing arrangements, including by using commercially reasonable efforts to avoid duplicative or incremental costs and expenses. Furthermore, the parties agree that Seller and its Affiliates shall be permitted to utilize their respective ordinary course transfer pricing in connection with the foregoing arrangements, including in connection with any sale of Products from Seller or its Affiliates to Buyer or its Affiliates. In the case of the occurrence of the Product Registration Transfer Time under clause (B) of the definition thereof with respect to any Product Registration, (x) unless the parties agree otherwise, the arrangements contemplated by such clause (B) with respect to a Product shall terminate reasonably promptly upon the occurrence of any of the events contemplated by clause (A) of the definition of Product Registration Transfer Time and (y) unless Buyer requests otherwise, the parties will continue to use reasonable best efforts to ensure that one of the events contemplated by clause (A) of the definition of Product Registration Transfer Time occurs with respect to such Product Registration as soon as reasonably practicable after the Closing or the applicable Deferred Closing (as applicable). In addition to the foregoing, to the extent that the sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or delivery or attempted sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or delivery to Buyer (or one of its Affiliates) of any Transferred Asset is prohibited by any applicable Law or would require any governmental or third-party authorizations, approvals (including Anti-Trust Approvals), consents or waivers and such authorizations, approvals, consents or waivers shall not have been obtained prior to the Closing or the applicable Deferred Closing (as applicable), this Agreement shall not constitute a sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or delivery thereof. From the date hereof until eighteen (18) months after the Closing Date, the parties shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to cooperate with each other to obtain promptly such authorizations, approvals, consents or waivers and to give any notices required for the transfer of such Transferred Asset and to obtain from third parties an approval or consent to establish a new contract with Buyer or its designated Affiliate with respect to the portion of any Commingled Contract related to the Business, pursuant to which Buyer or its designated Affiliate will have access to the rights and benefits of such
-12-

Commingled Contract with respect to the Business on substantially the same terms and conditions provided to Seller and its Affiliates prior to the Closing, or to assign such portion to Buyer or its designated Affiliate; provided, however, that Seller shall not be required to pay any consideration (other than customary filing and application fees typically paid by a seller or transferee) or make any concession therefor. If such authorization, approval, consent or waiver is obtained, Seller shall promptly assign, transfer, convey or deliver any such Transferred Asset or, if applicable, that portion of any Commingled Contract, as the case may be, to Buyer or its designee pursuant to Section 2.02(f) at no additional cost. Pending the earlier of obtaining such authorization, approval, consent or waiver or the expiration of such eighteen-month (18 month) period, insofar as reasonably practicable and to the extent permitted by applicable Law, Seller shall hold such Transferred Assets for the benefit of Buyer and shall operate such Transferred Assets in a manner to place Buyer in a substantially similar position as if such Transferred Assets had been sold, conveyed, assigned and transferred. Buyer shall use its reasonable best efforts to cooperate with Seller in connection with any actions taken by Seller pursuant to this Section 2.02(g). Buyer further agrees that, if Seller shall have complied with its obligations under this Agreement with respect to using reasonable best efforts to obtain such authorization, approval, consent or waiver, Seller shall not be in breach of this Agreement solely as a result of the failure to obtain any such authorization, approval, consent or waiver. From the date hereof until eighteen (18) months after the Closing Date, the parties shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to cooperate with each other with respect to the portion of any Commingled Contracts set forth on Schedule 2.02(a)(xi) such that Seller or its designated Affiliate will have access to the rights and benefits of such Commingled Contract with respect to the portion of the Commingled Contract not related to the Business on substantially the same terms and conditions provided to Seller and its Affiliates prior to the Closing; provided, however, that Buyer shall not be required to pay any consideration (other than customary filing and application fees typically paid by a seller or transferee) or make any concession therefor.”

Buyer shall not, and shall cause its subsidiaries and representatives not to, take any action that would prevent, impede or delay the Escrow Agent from so delivering the Escrow Amount to Seller pursuant to the preceding sentence and the Escrow Agreement. If the Closing occurs, Buyer shall remain liable to Seller for the Escrow Amount if the Escrow Amount is not so received by Seller as a result of a breach of the preceding sentence. In the event that the Closing does not occur on such anticipated Closing Date, the parties shall enter into a replacement escrow agreement substantially in the form of the Escrow Agreement (or in a form the parties otherwise reasonably agree) (with references to the Escrow Agreement herein being deemed to be references to such replacement escrow agreement) with an escrow agent (who may be the Escrow Agent) and shall follow the steps set forth in the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.03(a), mutatis mutandis.”
(vii) Section 2.03(b) of the Purchase Agreement (Purchase Price; Purchase Price Escrow) is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

-18-

not file the U.S. Certificate of Merger until written instructions (which may be by email) are received from Buyer or its counsel to make such filing.

(c) After receipt of the Merger Authorization from Seller, as soon as practicable after the Closing and on the Closing Date, Buyer shall send or cause to be sent an email to the Delaware Secretary authorizing the Delaware Secretary to file (or shall cause to be filed) the U.S. Certificate of Merger with an effective time of the Closing (the time the U.S. Merger becomes effective, the “U.S. Merger Effective Time”).

(xxiv) Article II is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following new Section 2.11 titled “Deferred Closings.”, which provides as follows:
“(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement (but subject to this Section 2.11(a)), (i) the conveyance, assignment, transfer and delivery by Seller or its Affiliates, and acceptance by Buyer or its Affiliates, of the Transferred Assets not owned by any Transferred Company located in the Country Units set forth on Annex B to the Disclosure Letter (the “Deferred Closing Countries”) and owned or held by a Deferred Title Holder (the “Deferred Assets”), (ii) the transfer to Buyer or its Affiliates of the Employees of the Business who are employed in such Deferred Closing Countries (other than any Non-Commercial Employees) (the “Deferred Employees”), and (iii) the assumption (and obligation to satisfy and discharge when due) by Buyer of the Assumed Liabilities to the extent arising from or relating to the Business conducted in the Deferred Closing Countries or the applicable Deferred Assets or Deferred Employees (the “Deferred Liabilities”), in each case, shall not occur on the Closing Date. For purposes of Article X, however, Buyer shall be deemed to have assumed the Deferred Liabilities on the Closing Date; provided, that (A) the Seller Indemnitees shall not be entitled to indemnification pursuant to Article X for any Damages incurred or suffered by any Seller Indemnitees to the extent resulting from the Deferred Liabilities or the Deferred Business during the Deferred Period to the extent resulting from the fraud, willful misconduct or intentional breach of this Agreement by Seller or its subsidiaries during the Deferred Period, and (B) the Seller Indemnitees shall not be entitled to indemnification pursuant to Article X for any Damages incurred or suffered by any Seller Indemnitees as a result of a third-party Claim to the extent resulting from the Deferred Liabilities or the Deferred Business during the Deferred Period to the extent resulting from the gross negligence of Seller or its subsidiaries during the Deferred Period. For purposes of clarity, the transfer of Non-Commercial Employees shall not be deferred pursuant to this Section 2.11(a) and the Non-Commercial Employees shall transfer as of the Closing Date (or, if applicable, such later date that such employee commences employment with Buyer or one of its Affiliates) pursuant to Section 8.01(c) (provided, that offer letters with respect to such Non-Commercial Employees shall not be required to be issued at least 10 days prior to the Closing Date).
-20-

(b) The conveyance, assignment, transfer, delivery and acceptance of the Deferred Assets, the transfer of Deferred Employees and the assumption of the Deferred Liabilities, with respect to a Deferred Closing Country (each such closing, a “Deferred Closing”) shall take place at 10:00 a.m., New York City time, at the offices of Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz, 51 West 52 Street, New York, New York 10019, or such other time and location specified in the applicable Country Transfer Agreement for such Deferred Closing Country, on the second business day after the date on which Seller (or its Affiliates) no longer has to provide the “finance / accounting” function for such Deferred Closing Country pursuant to the Transition Services Agreement to Buyer (or its Affiliates) (each date on which a Deferred Closing takes place, a “Deferred Closing Date”); provided that, if there is a Closing Legal Impediment in effect with respect to such Deferred Closing, then such Deferred Closing shall occur on the second business day after the date on which such Closing Legal Impediment is no longer in effect and provided, further, that the Deferred Closing for any Deferred Closing Country may occur on an earlier date if agreed in writing by Buyer and Seller. If any earlier Deferred Closing occurs pursuant to the preceding sentence, Buyer and Seller agree to cause their Affiliates to amend the Undisclosed Agency Agreement to include the Country Unit(s) for which such earlier Deferred Closing occurred on terms to be mutually agreed but substantially consistent with those set forth in the Undisclosed Agency Agreement.
(c) At each Deferred Closing, Seller and Buyer shall, or shall cause their respective Affiliates to, execute and deliver such documents and instruments, as may be reasonably necessary to transfer the Deferred Assets and Deferred Liabilities in such Deferred Closing Country to Buyer or its applicable Affiliate (designated in accordance with Section 2.02(f)), in each case consistent with the terms of this Agreement.
(d) It is the intention of the Parties that Buyer shall be entitled to the “net economic benefit” relating to the applicable Deferred Business arising during the applicable Deferred Period, and in connection therewith, each Deferred Title Holder shall retain such title as it has to the Deferred Assets of the applicable Deferred Business and hold such Deferred Assets for the benefit and expense of the applicable Deferred Beneficiary during the applicable Deferred Period. Solely to the extent related to the Deferred Business in a Deferred Closing Country, except as otherwise permitted by this Agreement or consented to by Buyer in writing (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld), (i) Seller agrees to (and to cause the applicable Deferred Title Holders to), (A) use commercially reasonable efforts to run the Deferred Business in the ordinary course consistent with past practice and in good faith and (B) comply with the covenants and agreements set forth in Section 6.01(b) (except Sections 6.01(b)(iv), 6.01(b)(viii), 6.01(b)(ix), 6.01(b)(x) and 6.01(b)(xi), and Section 6.01(b)(xiv) to the extent related to the
-21-

foregoing exclusions), in each case, until the Deferred Closing Date in such Deferred Closing Country, and (ii) Buyer agrees to grant Seller (and the Deferred Title Holders) a right to distribute the Products during the Deferred Period (the “Distribution Right”).
(e) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Seller’s and its Affiliates’ obligations to operate the Deferred Business is expressly conditioned on receipt of Products from applicable Affiliates of Buyer that applicable Affiliates of Seller need to operate the Deferred Business in compliance with this Agreement, and Seller and its Affiliates shall have no obligation to otherwise manufacture or procure any products. Applicable Affiliates of Buyer may invoice applicable Affiliates of Seller for such Products; provided that neither Seller or any Affiliate of Seller shall have any obligation to settle any such invoices and that the only payments to be made to Buyer or its applicable Affiliates with respect to such Products (or the Deferred Business) are the payments of any NEB Distribution Fee as provided in Section 2.11(f).
(f) Following each fiscal month of Seller covering any portion of the Deferred Period, Buyer shall prepare an invoice (using trial balances provided by or on behalf of Seller to Buyer pursuant to the Transition Services Agreement) with respect to the NEB Distribution Fee for such fiscal month and deliver such invoice to Seller (if such NEB Distribution Fee is positive, it will be paid by Seller or its Affiliates for their respective Distribution Right, as provided herein). Seller or its applicable Affiliates shall settle such invoices with Buyer or its applicable Affiliates (in the applicable local currency in which the corresponding sales were made) in accordance with the country specific days sales outstanding (DSO) schedules of Seller set forth in Annex E to the Disclosure Letter (the “DSO Schedules”) in full satisfaction of any open invoices relating to such sales; provided that if any invoice provides for a negative NEB Distribution Fee, Buyer shall pay to Seller or as directed by Seller the absolute value of such negative NEB Distribution Fee within 30 days of such invoice. Any invoices prepared pursuant to this Section 2.11(f) shall comply with applicable VAT and Transfer Tax Laws. For the avoidance of doubt, neither Seller nor any Affiliate of Seller shall have any obligation to pay for any unpaid accounts receivable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the percentage of actual bad debt expense associated with the operation of the Deferred Business in any Deferred Closing Country in a particular fiscal month of Seller (calculated in a manner consistent with the Accounting Policies, including with respect to the allocation of any such debt as between the sales of Products of the Deferred Business and sales of products of Seller’s other businesses) exceeds three (3) times the Bad Debt Rate applicable for such country, then Buyer agrees to pay or cause its applicable Affiliates to pay to Seller or its applicable Affiliates the amount by which such bad debt expense exceeds the product of (i) the Net Sales in such country in such fiscal
-22-

month multiplied by (ii) the Bad Debt Rate applicable for such country. Upon payment to Seller or its applicable Affiliates of any amount required to be paid by Buyer pursuant to the previous sentence, Seller or its applicable Affiliates shall convey, assign, and transfer to Buyer all bad debts to which such payment relates, including the rights to receive, collect or enforce such bad debts (provided that the parties shall cooperate in good faith with respect to such collection or enforcement).
(g) Subject to customary confidentiality undertakings comparable to those included in the Confidentiality Agreements, to the extent reasonably required to prepare or review any invoices required to be prepared or prepared pursuant to Section 2.11(f) or any calculation of the bad debt expense associated with the sales of Products of the Deferred Business to the extent Seller asserts such expense is payable, or to the extent such expense has been paid, pursuant to the second to last sentence of Section 2.11(f), Seller will, during normal business hours (upon at least two (2) business days’ written notice from Buyer), (i) make available its relevant personnel as shall be reasonably necessary in connection with the foregoing and (ii) permit Buyer and its duly authorized representatives access to all contracts, books, records and other data relating to the Deferred Businesses and/or the calculation of any NEB Distribution Fee (or any calculation of the bad debt expense associated with the sales of Products of the Deferred Business to the extent Seller asserts such expense is payable, or to the extent such expense has been paid, pursuant to the second to last sentence of Section 2.11(f)) as shall be reasonably necessary in connection with the foregoing, except where such access is prohibited by applicable Law or Contract.
(h) The parties acknowledge that the portion of the Purchase Price allocable to any Deferred Closing Country as set forth in the Initial Allocation (each, a “Deferred Closing Country Amount”) will be paid by Buyer to Seller on the Closing Date in U.S. dollars. On each Deferred Closing Date for each Deferred Closing Country in which a “local payment” is required by applicable Law to purchase the relevant Deferred Assets (as set forth on Schedule 2.11(h) to the Disclosure Letter), (i) Seller shall reimburse to Buyer, in U.S. dollars, the amount of such Deferred Closing Country Amount and (ii) the applicable Deferred Beneficiary shall (and Buyer shall cause such Deferred Beneficiary to) pay to the applicable Deferred Title Holder an amount, in local currency, equal to the local currency equivalent of such Deferred Closing Country Amount (as determined using the Exchange Rate) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the bank account to be designated by the party that will be receiving such reimbursement or payment, as applicable. Schedule 2.11(h) to the Disclosure Letter sets forth Seller’s good-faith estimate as of the date of this Agreement of the portion of the Purchase Price to be allocated to each Deferred Country Unit identified therein for payment in a Foreign Currency.”
-23-

(xxv) Article II is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following new Section 2.12 titled “Transferred Inventory.”, which provides as follows:
“(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement (but subject to the last two sentences of this Section 2.12(a)), except (i) for Transferred Inventory that constitutes Finished Goods Inventory not in excess of $50,000 U.S. dollars in the aggregate as of Closing held by Covidien Deutschland GmbH, (ii) for Transferred Inventory that constitutes Finished Goods Inventory owned by Covidien AG on behalf of or for the benefit of Especialidades Medicas Kenmex SA de CV and (iii) for Transferred Inventory that constitutes Finished Goods Inventory for which title is held by any of the Transferred Companies, the conveyance, assignment, transfer and delivery by Seller or its Affiliates, and acceptance by Buyer or its Affiliates, of legal title to Transferred Inventory that constitutes Finished Goods Inventory shall not occur on the Closing Date (the “Deferred Inventory”). For the avoidance of doubt, Deferred Inventory will include Transferred Inventory held by Medtronic Australasia Pty. Limited. For purposes of Article X, however, Buyer shall be deemed to have assumed the Assumed Liabilities relating to or arising out of such Deferred Inventory on the Closing Date (without limiting clause (b) below). This Section 2.12 shall not be applicable to the determination of Closing Inventory, and Closing Inventory shall be determined assuming this Section 2.12 was not applicable.
(b) Seller and/or its Affiliates shall hold the Deferred Inventory for the benefit of, and at the expense and risk of loss to, Buyer and its Affiliates, and provide distribution services with respect to the Deferred Inventory on behalf of Buyer and/or its Affiliates pursuant to the terms of the Transition Services Agreement (such services, the “Distribution Services”). Subject to the express liability allocation provisions of the Transition Services Agreement with respect to Services to the extent relating to Deferred Inventory, Buyer and/or its Affiliates shall bear all risk of loss or damage to such Deferred Inventory, regardless of whether such Deferred Inventory is held by Seller or any of its Affiliates in the course of Seller and/or its Affiliates’ provision of the Distribution Services; provided that neither Buyer nor any Affiliate thereof shall bear any risk of loss or similar liability for any loss or damage of any Deferred Inventory to the extent resulting from the fraud, willful misconduct or intentional breach of this Agreement by Seller or its Affiliates following the Closing.
(c) Upon the conclusion of all Distribution Services in a Country Unit, Seller will, and will cause the relevant Asset Selling Affiliates to, sell, convey, assign, and transfer to Buyer or its designee all Deferred Inventory in the applicable Country Unit, free and clear of all Liens other than Permitted Liens.”

-25-

(iii) Section 8.01(c) of the Purchase Agreement (Employee Benefits Matters) is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
“Prior to the Closing or the applicable Deferred Closing, as applicable, Seller shall, or shall cause its Affiliates to, take all actions necessary to transfer the employment of any individual who is employed by a Transferred Company and who is not an Employee of Business to Seller or any of its Affiliates (other than the Transferred Companies), as designated by Seller. In the event the employment of an Employee of the Business does not automatically transfer to Buyer or its Affiliates upon the occurrence of the Closing or the applicable Deferred Closing, as applicable, by operation of Law or pursuant to the transfer (directly or indirectly) of the Transferred Equity Interests to Buyer or its Affiliates, (i) Seller shall take, or cause its respective Affiliates to take, all actions required in accordance with applicable Law in respect of the transfer of employment of such Employees of the Business to Buyer or one of its Affiliates, and Seller shall encourage each Employee of the Business to accept any offers of employment pursuant to this Section 8.01(c) in its communications with such individuals; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, nothing herein shall be interpreted as requiring Seller or any of its subsidiaries to provide any such Employee of the Business with any additional compensation or benefits or otherwise incur any material liability; and (ii) not less than ten (10) business days prior to the Closing or the applicable Deferred Closing, as applicable, Buyer or one of its Affiliates will offer employment, effective at 12:01 a.m., local time, on the Closing Date or the applicable Deferred Closing Date, as applicable (the “Transfer Time”), to such Employee of the Business in accordance with this Agreement. Offers pursuant to this Section 8.01(c) shall (A) be for a position commensurate with the skills and experience of such Employee of the Business and at a geographic work location within fifty (50) miles of the applicable Employee of the Business’ primary work location immediately prior to the Closing Date or the applicable Deferred Closing Date, as applicable (or, to the extent applicable in jurisdictions other than the United States, within such lesser radius as is necessary to ensure severance is not due in connection with such relocation), and (B) otherwise comply in all respects with applicable Law (including with respect to compensation and benefits). With respect to any Employee of the Business to whom Buyer or one of its Affiliates is required to make an offer of employment pursuant to this Section 8.01(c), and who, as of the Closing Date or the applicable Deferred Closing Date, as applicable, is on approved leave of absence from work with Seller or its Affiliates (each, an “Inactive Employee”), Buyer shall offer employment to such individual on the earliest practicable date following the return of such individual to work with Seller and its Affiliates and otherwise on terms and conditions consistent with this Section 8.01; provided that such employee returns to work within one hundred eighty (180) days following the Closing Date or the applicable Deferred Closing Date, as applicable, or such later time as required by applicable Law

or the terms of the applicable Collective Bargaining Agreement upon presenting themselves for duty to the Business. Seller shall promptly notify Buyer of the occurrence and end of any such leave of absence. In the case of any Inactive Employee who becomes a Transferred Employee following the Closing Date or the applicable Deferred Closing Date, as applicable, all references in this Agreement to (1) the Closing Date or the applicable Deferred Closing Date, as applicable, shall be deemed to be references to the date on which such individual becomes a Transferred Employee and (2) the Transfer Time shall be deemed to be references to 12:01 a.m., local time, on the date that such individual becomes a Transferred Employee. In any jurisdiction where the employment of an Employee of the Business can transfer automatically to Buyer and its Affiliates upon the occurrence of the Closing or Deferred Closing, as applicable, by operation of Law or pursuant to the transfer (directly or indirectly) of the Transferred Equity Interests to Buyer, Buyer and Seller agree to take, or cause their respective Affiliates to take, all actions required under applicable Law and all other actions as are necessary or appropriate such that the employment of such Employee of the Business will transfer to Buyer or its Affiliates automatically as of the Transfer Time. Seller shall provide a list to Buyer of each Inactive Employee no later than ten (10) business days prior to the Closing or Deferred Closing Date, as applicable, and shall update such list as of the Closing or Deferred Closing Date, as applicable. The Employee of the Business employed in France for whom the transfer of employment contemplated by this Section 8.01(c) is subject to the authorization of the inspection du travail shall transfer to Buyer or its Affiliates automatically on the day after such authorization is given. If such authorization is not granted within four (4) months following the Closing Date, such Employee of the Business shall not become a Transferred Employee. Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such authorization following the Closing and shall keep Buyer and its Affiliates informed of the status of such procedure.”
