Conversely, Purchaser shall pay to MTU Friedrichshafen (i) an amount equal to any withholding tax deducted from the interim profit transfer/distribution 2018 pursuant to clause 7.6 if, contrary to the Parties' view and based on a final and binding Tax assessment, withholding tax thereon (A) was not payable and therefore repaid to L'Orange by the Tax Authority or (B) is refundable (by receipt of cash payment, credit, set-off, deduction or otherwise) for the benefit of the Purchaser Group (rather than the Sellers' Group) and (ii) an amount equal to the amount of the interim profit transfer/distribution 2018 multiplied by 29.5% (i.e. 31% minus 1.5%) if, contrary to the Parties' view and based on a final and binding Tax assessment, such profit transfer/distribution is classified as a tax deductible expense of L'Orange (rather than a non-deductible hidden profit distribution). MTU Friedrichshafen and the Purchaser shall cooperate and shall undertake, and the Purchaser shall procure that L'Orange will undertake best efforts to achieve that for Tax purposes the interim profit transfer/distribution 2018 is classified by the responsible Tax Authorities as a hidden profit distribution and any withholding tax payable is for the account of the Sellers' Group. Any payment from the Purchaser to MTU Friedrichshafen shall be treated as an increase of the L'Orange Purchase Price. Any payment from MTU Friedrichshafen to the Purchaser shall be treated as a reduction of the L’Orange Purchase Price. If L’Orange incurs losses during the

same period, the Purchaser shall reimburse MTU Friedrichshafen for any loss compensation payments made by MTU Friedrichshafen to L’Orange under the DPLTA. Such payment from the Purchaser shall be treated as an increase of the L’Orange Purchase Price.

7.4 The Purchaser shall further indemnify and hold MTU Friedrichshafen harmless from (i) any obligation to provide security pursuant to sec. 303 para 1 German Stock Corporation Act (Aktiengesetz) if and to the extent such obligation refers to an account payable that was created or became due after the Locked Box Date and (ii) any claims L’Orange may have under the DPLTA resulting from any amendment of L’Orange's statutory financial statements that was initiated by L’Orange or the Purchaser after the Closing.

7.5 The Purchaser shall procure, with the due and reasonable support by the Sellers, that L’Orange determines the profit or loss generated between 1 January 2018 and the termination of the DPLTA within two (2) months after the Closing Date, based on interim financial statements of L'Orange as of the end of the Closing Date (24:00 hours CEST) to be prepared on the basis of the provisions of the German Commercial Code (Handelsgesetzbuch) consistently applied and in accordance with the provisions of the DPLTA (such documents, the “Profit and Loss Calculation”). The Purchaser shall procure that L’Orange submits the final draft of the Profit and Loss Calculation to MTU Friedrichs hafen without undue delay for its review and comments once available but in any case within the aforementioned two (2) months period after the Closing Date. The Parties shall cooperate in good faith to finalize the Profit and Loss Calculation as soon as reasonably practical after the comments from MTU Friedrichshafen have been obtained by the Purchaser.

7.6 L'Orange is entitled to deduct and withhold any applicable withholding Taxes from the profit determined in the (final) Profit and Loss Calculation at the time of payment to MTU Friedrichshafen and pay such withholding Taxes to the responsible Tax Authority under issuance of any certificate required under applicable law to the relevant Sellers' Group Company.

8. TERMINATION AND SETTLEMENT OF CASH POOLING AND CASH IN THE COMPANY AS OF CLOSING

Upon release of L’Orange from the Cash Pooling, MTU Friedrichshafen (pursuant to lit. (i) and (ii), if any) and the cash pool leader (pursuant to lit. (iii)) (each as lender) shall grant loans to L’Orange (as borrower) as follows:

(i) newly injected cash in the amount of EUR 1,000,000 (in words: one million euros) (to be credited to a non Cash Pooling bank account of L'Orange); plus

(ii) in the amount of a good faith estimate by Sellers, in prior consultation with the Purchasers, of cash required by L’Orange to conduct its business in the ordinary course until one (1) Business Day following the Closing Date (to be credited to a non Cash Pooling bank account of L'Orange), plus

(iii) conversion of the amount of the debt balance, if any, owed by L’Orange in relation to the Cash Pooling as of immediately prior to the Closing Date (“Cash Pool Debt Balance”) into a loan from the cash pool leader of the Cash Pooling to L’Orange (for

the avoidance of doubt, without funds other than pursuant to (i) and (ii), if any, to be newly injected),

such loans to form part of the Intra-Group Loans (as defined below).

For the avoidance of doubt, the repayment pursuant to clause 9.2 below of the Cash Pool Debt Balance, the contractual obligation to do so and the loans referred to above shall not constitute Leakage.

Exhibit 8 includes a sample calculation on the interplay between the payment mechanics included in clause 7 and in clause 8.

16.1.2.2 refer to amounts that both (i) have been specifically taken into account (berücksichtigt) in the Locked Box Accounts as Tax provisions or Tax payables and (ii) resulted in a reduction of the Consideration in Exhibit 3.1.3; or

16.1.2.3 are actually recovered or recoverable by the Purchaser or a Group Company in accordance with clause 14.1.3(i) or 14.1.3(ii); or

16.1.2.4 are directly or indirectly caused or triggered by (i) any change in the accounting and taxation principles or practices of the Group Companies after Closing; or (ii) any transaction, action, omission, declaration or other measure initiated or executed by the Purchaser, any person affiliated with the Purchaser, or – after the Closing – by one of the Group Companies or any future direct or indirect shareholder or partner of any Group Company (including, but not limited to, the change in the exercise of any Tax election right, the change in transfer pricing, the amendment of any Tax Return, the termination of any profit and loss absorption agreement or Tax consolidation scheme (other than between any of the Sellers on the one side and the Group Companies on the other side), the approval or implementation of any reorganizational measure or the sale of any asset), in each case unless required under mandatory law (including, for the avoidance of doubt, applicable generally accepted accounting principles) or done with the consent of the Sellers; or

16.1.2.5 correspond to or can be offset against Tax reductions (Steuerminderung) or Tax refunds, in each case arising out of or relating to circumstances triggering the Tax indemnification claim pursuant to clause 16.1.1, including but not limited to reciprocal effects (Wechselwirkung) resulting e.g. from the lengthening of depreciation periods or higher depreciation allowances (Phasen verschiebung) or from a transfer of items relevant for Taxes (e.g. turn-over, income, expenses, VAT payable corresponding to an input VAT refunded etc.) into another Tax assessment period or a transfer of Tax items from one entity to another entity, and occurring on or after the Locked Box Date at the tier of the Group Companies, the Purchaser, or an entity affiliated with the Purchaser (altogether “Tax Benefit”). Thereby it is understood that such Tax Benefit shall be equal to the net present value of the Tax Benefit whereby the net present value shall be determined on the basis of the statutory Tax rate applicable in the respective jurisdiction at the Locked Box Date and a discount factor of three per cent (3%) p.a.; or

16.1.2.7 would not have occurred but for any (i) Tax Law not in force at the date of this Agreement or (ii) change of Tax Law after the date of this Agreement.

indemnify the Purchaser's Guarantor from and against any unpaid Taxes of Fluid Mechanics attributable to a Tax period ending prior to the Locked Box Date to the extent such Taxes exceed the amounts that both (i) have been specifically taken into account (berücksichtigt) in the Locked Box Accounts as Tax provisions or Tax payables and (ii) resulted in a reduction of the Consideration in Exhibit 3.1.3, and for the avoidance of doubt from and against any capital gains or ordinary income Taxes arising from the sale of Fluid Mechanics.

16.1.4 In the case of a Tax period that begins prior to the Locked Box Date and ends on or after the Locked Box Date (“Straddle Period”), MTU America shall be allocated and shall bear all Taxes attributable to the portion of such Straddle Period ending on the day immediately prior to the Locked Box Date to the extent such Taxes exceed the amounts that both (i) have been specifically taken into account (berücksichtigt) in the Locked Box Accounts as Tax provisions or Tax payables and (ii) resulted in a reduction of the Consideration in Exhibit 3.1.3. The Purchaser's Guarantor shall be allocated and bear all Taxes attributable to the portion of any Straddle Period beginning on the Locked Box Date; and the Purchaser's Guarantor shall be allocated and bear all Taxes attributable to the portion of any Straddle Period ending on the day immediately prior to the Locked Box Date to the extent such Taxes both (i) have been specifically taken into account (berücksichtigt) in the Locked Box Accounts as Tax provisions or Tax payables and (ii) resulted in a reduction of the Consideration in Exhibit 3.1.3. For purposes of this clause 16.1.4, all (i) ad valorem, real property, personal property and similar Taxes imposed on a periodic basis pertaining to a Straddle Period shall be apportioned on a pro rata basis between MTU America and the Sellers on the one hand, and the Purchaser's Guarantor, on the other hand, based on the number of days of such Straddle Period, and (ii) Taxes not included in (i) that are pertaining to a Straddle Period shall be apportioned based on a closing of the books method as of the day immediately prior to the Locked Box Date. Subject to the Purchaser's Guarantor's indemnification rights herein, the Purchaser's Guarantor shall be responsible for payment to the applicable Tax Authority of all Straddle Period Taxes attributable to Fluid Mechanics that become due and payable after the Closing Date. For the avoidance of doubt, MTU America or its Affiliates shall bear any and all income or similar Taxes of MTU America or any of its Affiliates attributable to the disposition of Fluid Mechanics, including, but not limited to, capital gains or ordinary income Taxes arising from the sale of Fluid Mechanics.

16.1.5 Any indemnification payment to be made by a Seller pursuant to this clause 16.1 is due twenty (20) Business Days after the respective Seller has been notified in writing by the respective of the Purchasers about the payment obligation and the corresponding payment date and has received a copy of the underlying Tax assessment or payment order or similar measure of the competent Tax Authorities, but not later than five (5) Business Days prior to the date at which the Tax to be indemnified is due and payable to the Tax Authority. On request of the Sellers the respective of the Purchasers shall, at Sellers’ cost, procure that the respective Group Company undertakes best efforts to achieve a deferred payment date, in particular but not limited to the application for a suspension of enforcement of Tax payment obligation (Aussetzung der Vollziehung) or equivalent application in foreign jurisdiction; clause 16.5 shall apply. The Purchasers shall not be obliged to grant any security to the Tax Authorities in order to receive a suspension of execution; if required by the Tax Authority for the granting of a suspension of execution, however, the respective Seller shall be

entitled at its discretion to provide at its own cost and expense such security to the respective Tax Authority. If the Tax for which an indemnification payment has been made is subsequently reduced, the difference between the higher indemnification payment and the lower Tax amount shall be reimbursed by the respective of the Purchasers to the respective of the Sellers, including all interests paid thereon by the respective Tax Authority. Clause 16.2.2 and clause 16.2.3 shall apply mutatis mutandis to the existence of over-indemnification and the reimbursement obligation of the respective of the Purchasers.

16.1.6 The Sellers agree to pay to the Purchasers an amount equal to the portion of any Tax receivable that (i) turns out not to be, or not to be fully collectible, (ii) has been specifically taken into account (berücksichtigt) in the Locked Box Accounts as Tax receivable and (iii) resulted in an increase of the Consideration in Exhibit 3.1.3. If and to the extent a payment pursuant to sentence 1 has been made by the Sellers to the Purchasers and, at a later point in time, the underlying Tax receivable which is collected is higher, such increased amount shall be reimbursed by the respective of the Purchasers to the Sellers together with any interest actually assessed. Clause 16.1.5 shall apply mutatis mutandis.

16.2 Tax Refund; Overstated Tax Provisions; Tax Asset

16.2.1 The Purchasers shall pay to the respective Seller

16.2.1.1 any Tax refund (to the extent not already taken into account as a Tax Benefit pursuant to clause 16.1.2.5) for the benefit of a Group Company relating to a Pre-Locked Box Date Period received by the respective of the Purchasers or one of the Group Companies on or after the Locked Box Date (by receipt of cash payments, credit, set-off, deduction or otherwise and net of any corresponding future Tax burden of the Group Companies; in calculating such future Tax burden clause 16.1.2.5, sentence 2 shall apply mutatis mutandis), unless such Tax refund both (i) has been specifically taken into account as a Tax receivable in the Locked Box Accounts and (ii) resulted in an increase of the Consideration as reflected in Exhibit 3.1.3 (the “Tax Refund”); and

16.2.1.2 an amount equal to any Tax that (i) turns out not to be, or not to be fully payable, (ii) has been specifically taken into account (berücksichtigt) in the Locked Box Accounts as Tax provision or Tax payable and (iii) resulted in a reduction of the Consideration in Exhibit 3.1.3; and

16.2.1.3 to the extent not already taken into account as a Tax Benefit pursuant to clause 16.1.2.5, the amount of any Tax Refund, Tax credit, any Tax item (including interest) that can be carried forward or backward as a Tax loss to reduce any Tax (in respect of a Tax item, however, only up to the amount of any reduced Tax) (altogether the “Tax Asset”) caused by reciprocal effects (Wechselwirkungen) resulting e.g. from the lengthening of depreciation periods or higher depreciation allowances (Phasenverschiebung) or the transfer of items relevant for Taxes (e.g. turnover, income, expenses, VAT payable corresponding with a VAT refund etc.) into another calendar year or the transfer of Tax items from one entity to another entity, (i) occurring after the Locked Box Date at the tier of the respective of

the Purchasers, any company affiliated with the Purchasers, any Group Company or any future direct or indirect shareholder or partner of any Group Company and (ii) corresponding to an increased Tax which due to the existence of a tax group between a Seller and any of the Group Companies is incurred at the tier of a Seller or any Sellers’ Group Company; as to the calculation of such Tax Asset, clause 16.1.2.5 sentence 2 shall apply mutatis mutandis; and

16.2.1.4 an amount equal to any corporate and trade Tax prepayments made by MTU Friedrichshafen or any other Sellers' Group Company relating to L'Orange for the period beginning on the Locked Box Date, if and to the extent any such prepayment results in a Tax refund (by receipt of cash payments, credit, set-off, deduction or otherwise) to the benefit of L'Orange for such period pursuant to an assessment by the competent Tax Authority; and

16.2.1.5 an amount equal to any Net Tax Amortization, Depreciation or Other Step-up in Basis Benefit (as defined below), if and when actually and finally realized (based on a final and binding assessment notice which includes such benefit), it being understood and agreed that the Sellers take the view that no intangible asset(s) are, were or will be granted, assigned, contributed or otherwise transferred for German Tax purposes from MTU Friedrichshafen in connection with the Transaction or any Closing Actions to any Group Company, to any of the Purchasers or to any Affiliate of, or other Person directly or indirectly controlled by, or controlling the Purchasers or either of the Purchasers (the “Sellers’ View”) and that the Purchasers shall, and shall procure that each of their Affiliates and each Group Company and each other Person directly or indirectly controlled by, or controlling the Purchasers (the “Related Person”) will, with respect to such matters (i) refrain from objecting to the Sellers’ View or obstruct the Sellers’ argumentation to uphold Sellers’ View, unless otherwise agreed to by MTU Friedrichshafen or required by mandatory law, (ii) promptly inform MTU Friedrichshafen about any Tax assessment or other decision or measure of any Tax Authority or court which deviates from the Sellers’ View, (iii) give MTU Friedrichshafen and their counsel, at their request and limited to the specific topic at hand (and at MTU Friedrichshafen’s sole cost and expense), the possibility (x) to directly argue the Sellers’ View and to challenge and litigate any Tax assessment or other decision or measure of any Tax Authority or court which deviates from the Sellers’ View, and (y) to directly take any measure to keep the respective Tax assessments of the concerned Group Companies, Purchasers, Affiliates or Related Persons of Purchasers procedurally open, respectively in the name and on behalf of the concerned Group Companies, Purchasers, Affiliates or Related Persons of Purchasers, and (iv) use best efforts, upon MTU Friedrichshafen's written request with evidence of an actually - and, only if and to the extent sec. 32a Corporate Income Tax Act (Körperschaftsteuergesetz – KStG) applies, also finally - taxed intangible asset transfer and at MTU Friedrichshafen's sole cost, to take the necessary measures with regard to post Locked Box Date Tax Returns to realize a Tax amortization, depreciation or other step-up in basis benefit with

respect to such intangible asset. The “Net Tax Amortization, Depreciation or Other Step-up in Basis Benefit” shall mean the net of (a) any Tax benefit(s) actually and finally realized (based on a final and binding assessment notice which includes such benefit(s)), by any Group Company, by Purchasers, by any Affiliates or Related Persons of Purchasers, at any time on or after the Locked Box Date, that (i) arise from an amortization or depreciation of any intangible asset(s), which at any time on or after the Locked Box Date and notwithstanding the Sellers’ View, (x) are deemed to be granted, assigned, contributed or otherwise transferred for German Tax purposes from MTU Friedrichshafen in connection with the Transaction or any Closing Actions to any Group Company, any of the Purchasers, Affiliates or Related Persons of Purchasers, or (y) are deemed to be, based on an initial transfer pursuant to (x) immediately above (and including, for the avoidance of doubt, any subsequent transfer pursuant to this (y)), further assigned, contributed or otherwise (legally or economically) transferred for German Tax purposes by any of the Group Companies, Purchasers, Affiliates or Related Persons of Purchasers to any other Person which is a Group Company, any of the Purchasers, Affiliates or Related Persons of Purchasers, or that (ii) arise, in consequence of a prior step-up in basis, from a reduced taxable profit (or an increased tax loss, taking into account the last sentence of this clause 16.2.1.5) of (x) the transferor (for German tax purposes) as a result of and upon any further assignment, contribution or other (legal or economic) transfer of any such intangible asset(s) for German Tax purposes from the concerned Group Companies, Purchasers, Affiliates or Related Persons of Purchasers to any other Person, or (y) the (legal or economic) owner of any such intangible asset(s) upon any other income recognition measure for German Tax purposes (e.g. upon any cross-border transfer of any such intangible asset(s) to a foreign permanent establishment of such owner) (it being understood, however, and for the avoidance of doubt, that there shall with respect to all the aforementioned scenarios be no double-counting for the benefit of the Sellers), less (b) the amount(s) of all reductions of Tax benefits to, or increases of Tax expenses for, any of the Purchasers, the Group Companies and/or their respective Affiliates, to the extent related to or caused by the Tax benefit described in (a) above. If the Tax benefit described in (a) above results in a Tax loss which is carried forward, the Purchasers are unilaterally entitled to postpone the payment obligation under this clause 16.2.1.5 accordingly up until a taxable profit is generated against which such Tax loss carried forward can be offset (on a "first in first out basis" if, as the case may be, any further Tax losses exist).

If and to the extent a payment pursuant to clause 16.2.1.2 has been made by any of the Purchasers to the Sellers and, at a later point in time, the underlying Tax is increased, such increased amount shall be reimbursed by the respective Seller to Purchasers together with any interest actually assessed. Clause 16.1.5 shall apply mutatis mutandis. If and to the extent a payment pursuant to clause 16.2.1.5 has been made by any of the Purchasers to the respective Seller and, at a later point in time, the Net Tax Amortization, Depreciation or Other Step-up in Basis Benefit is increased (e.g. by virtue of a subsequent decrease of Tax expenses

within the meaning of (b) of clause 16.2.1.5 above), such increased amount shall be payable by the Purchasers to the respective Seller. Any Tax Refund and any Net Tax Amortization, Depreciation or Other Step-up in Basis Benefit payable pursuant to the provisions hereof shall be reduced by all reasonable out of pocket costs incurred by any of the Purchasers or any Group Company after Closing to obtain said refund or to prepare the schedule within the meaning of clause 16.2.2 and by any Taxes imposed with respect to the receipt of such refund.

16.2.2 The Purchasers shall notify the Sellers without undue delay in writing of the receipt of any Tax Refund, of the fact that the circumstances would allow a reasonable business person to conclude that a Tax is not or no longer payable within the meaning of clause 16.2.1.2 above, of any Tax refund within the meaning of clause 16.2.1.4, of any final and binding assessment notice which includes any Tax benefit as described in (a) of clause 16.2.1.5 above, and of any subsequent increase of a Net Tax Amortization, Depreciation or Other Step-up in Basis Benefit pursuant to clause 16.2.1 above. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and only if any Tax assessment or other decision or measure of any Tax Authority or court has deviated from the Sellers' View, the Purchasers shall provide MTU Friedrichshafen on an annual basis with a schedule setting forth (i) the amounts of (x) any Tax benefit(s) described in (a) of clause 16.2.1.5 above, (y) any reduction of Tax benefit(s) or any increase of Tax expenses described in (b) of clause 16.2.1.5 above and (z) any subsequent increase of a Net Tax Amortization, Depreciation or Other Step-up in Basis Benefit pursuant to clause 16.2.1 above, (ii) the respective tax assessment status in relation to any of the amounts under (i) above, and (iii) any postponement of the payment obligation pursuant to clause 16.2.1.5 above, together with information reasonably necessary to verify the respective amounts, tax assessment status and postponement as aforementioned.

16.2.3 Any amount payable to the Sellers pursuant to this clause 16.2 shall be due and payable when (i) the Tax Refund has been refunded (by receipt of cash payments, credit, set-off, deduction or otherwise) to the Group Companies (with regard to clause 16.2.1.1 above), (ii) the circumstances would allow a reasonable business person to conclude that the respective Tax is not or no longer payable (with regard to clause 16.2.1.2 above), (iii) the respective of the Purchasers has received from the respective Seller a notification of the assessment of any Tax giving rise to a payment obligation and a calculation of the Tax Asset, which a Seller claims to be payable under clause 16.2.1.3 (with regard to clause 16.2.1.3 above), (iv) MTU Friedrichshafen has received from Purchaser a notification of the Tax refund (with regard to clause 16.2.1.4), (v) MTU Friedrichshafen has received from the Purchasers a notification of any final and binding assessment notice which includes any Tax amortization, depreciation or other step-up in basis benefit as described in (a) of clause 16.2.1.5 above, or (vi) MTU Friedrichshafen has received from Purchasers a notification of any subsequent increase of a Net Tax Amortization, Depreciation or Other Step-up in Basis Benefit (with regard to clause 16.2.1 above), but in no event shall any such amount (where applicable) be payable to the Sellers earlier than five (5) Business Days before the assessed Taxes become due and payable.

16.3 Reverse Indemnity; VAT-matters

16.3.1 The Purchasers shall indemnify the Sellers and all Sellers’ Group Companies for all Taxes, losses or reductions of a Tax Asset relating to a Pre-Locked Box Date Period, if and to the extent the Sellers' and the Sellers’ Group Companies' Taxes,

54

losses or reductions of the Tax Asset are directly or indirectly caused by or result from

16.3.1.1 the breach of a covenant, obligation or other kind of commitment pursuant to this Agreement by the Purchasers or, after the Closing Date, also by the Group Companies; or

16.3.1.2 (i) any change in commercial or Tax accounting methods of the Group Companies after the Closing or (ii) any transaction, action, omission, declaration or other measure initiated or executed by the Purchasers, any company affiliated with the Purchasers, or – after the Closing Date – by one of the Group Companies or any future direct or indirect shareholder or partner of any Group Company (including, but not limited to, the change in the exercise of any Tax election right, the change in transfer pricing, the amendment of any Tax Return, the termination of any profit and loss absorption agreement or Tax consolidation scheme (other than between any of the Sellers on the one side and the Group Companies on the other side), the approval or implementation of any reorganizational measure or the sale of any asset), in each case to the extent such measures pertain to Pre-Locked Box Date Periods or have retroactive effect pursuant to statutory provisions (e.g. as a consequence of a retroactive transformation pursuant to the German Transformation Tax Act) and unless required under mandatory law (including, for the avoidance of doubt, applicable generally accepted accounting principles) or done with the consent of the Sellers.

Any such claim of the Sellers and the Sellers’ Group Companies shall be reduced by a corresponding Tax Asset for the benefit of the respective Seller or Sellers’ Group Company resulting from an event pursuant to clause 16.3.1.1 and 16.3.1.2 of this clause 16.3.1; clause 16.1.2.5, sentence 2 shall apply mutatis mutandis.

If and to the extent, a Sellers’ or a Sellers' Group Company's Tax items that could be deducted, carried forward or backward as losses (including interest) relating to a Pre-Locked Box Date Period are lost or reduced (other than as a result of this transaction), the Purchasers will indemnify the Sellers or the Sellers' Group Companies only if and to the extent such Tax items could have been utilized by the Sellers or the Sellers' Group Companies. To substantiate that such utilization by the Sellers or the Sellers’ Group Companies would have been possible, it is sufficient (but also required) that the respective Seller or the respective Sellers' Group Company earns a taxable profit (before set off with existing losses or interest carried forward which were incurred after the Locked Box Date) and evidences such taxable profit to the Purchasers (e.g. through the submission of corresponding Tax Returns; provided, however, in no event will Tax Returns for MTU America be required to be submitted to the Purchaser's Guarantor). For the avoidance of doubt, it is in that respect irrelevant if the taxable profit leads to an effective Tax payment at the level of the Sellers or the Sellers' Group Companies if such taxable profit is (or could be) set off against post Locked Box Date losses. The Purchasers will, already upon the loss or reduction of Tax items which could be deducted, carried forward or backward as losses (including interest) pursuant to clause 16.3.1, sentence 1, certify to the respective Seller or Sellers’ Group Company in writing that the indemnification will be satisfied provided that the

conditions under clause 16.3.1, sentence 3 are met and evidenced in accordance with clause 16.3.1, sentence 4.

16.3.2 With respect to the taxable income attributable to the net operating income of Fluid Mechanics for the period from the Locked Box Date (including) through the Closing Date (including), the Purchaser's Guarantor shall pay to MTU America an amount equal to the product of (i) the net income attributable to Fluid Mechanics for this period computed on the basis that Fluid Mechanics was a separate taxpayer for U.S. federal and state income tax purposes for this period and assuming a closing of the books method of accounting as of the Closing Date, multiplied by (ii) a combined effective Tax rate of twenty four per cent (24%); provided, however, none of the Purchasers shall be responsible for any such Taxes (and shall have no obligation to indemnify MTU America) to the extent such Taxes (i) have been specifically taken into account in the Locked Box Accounts as a Tax receivable and resulted in an increase of the Consideration as reflected in Exhibit 3.1.3, or (ii) have been paid as Permitted Leakage. Within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date, MTU America shall provide the Purchaser's Guarantor with a schedule setting forth the Tax liability contemplated by this clause 16.3.2 with respect to Fluid Mechanics together with supporting work papers prepared on a pro forma basis and any other information reasonably necessary to verify such Tax liability (“Tax Schedule”) and pay such Tax amount. For the avoidance of doubt, the Tax Schedule shall not include any income or similar Tax liability of MTU America or any of its Affiliates attributable to, or arising from, the disposition of Fluid Mechanics, including, but not limited to, capital gains or ordinary income Taxes, arising from the sale of Fluid Mechanics. Any payments pursuant to this clause 16.3.2 shall be treated as a purchase price adjustment for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

16.3.3 The indemnification or payment under clause 16.3.1 or clause 16.3.2 becomes due and payable twenty (20) Business Days after the respective of the Purchasers has been notified in writing by one of the Sellers about the indemnification or payment obligation and, if applicable, has received a copy of the underlying Tax assessment, but (where applicable) not later than five (5) Business Days prior to the date at which the Tax to be indemnified is due and payable to the Tax Authority. Clause 16.1.5 sentence 2 through 5 shall apply mutatis mutandis.

16.3.4 Except as set forth in clauses 16.1.3 and 25.2, the Sellers are not liable for any Tax imposed on any Group Company in connection with the signing or execution of the Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated in the Agreement, a change of control or cancellation of fiscal unity (other than between any of the Sellers on the one side and the Group Companies on the other side) that occurred in connection with the transactions contemplated in the Agreement. The Purchasers shall not, and shall procure that none of the affiliates of Purchasers (including none of the Group Companies) will, raise any claim against the Sellers or Sellers’ Group Companies in respect of Taxes resulting from the signing or execution of the Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated in the Agreement or such change of control or cancellation of fiscal unity (other than between any of the Sellers on the one side and the Group Companies on the other side). The Purchasers shall indemnify and hold harmless the Sellers and the Sellers’ Group Companies from all claims raised by any affiliates of Purchasers (including any Group Company) with respect to the signing or execution of the Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated in the Agreement, a change of control or cancellation of fiscal unity

16.3.5 With respect to the VAT group (umsatzsteuerliche Organschaft) between MTU Friedrichshafen (or any other Sellers' Group Company) on the one side and L'Orange on the other side, the Purchaser shall be fully responsible (verschuldensunabhängige Einstandspflicht) that MTU Friedrichshafen will be promptly forwarded the invoices received by L’Orange for any deliveries and services provided, but not yet invoiced, to L’Orange prior to the Closing. The Parties will treat deliveries made or received and services performed or received by L’Orange for purposes of an allocation of VAT payments and VAT reimbursements as if the VAT group had ceased to exist between MTU Friedrichshafen (or any other Sellers' Group Company) and L'Orange as of the Locked Box Date. For that purpose the Parties agree as follows: The Purchaser is liable that L'Orange will reimburse to MTU Friedrichshafen (or any other Sellers' Group Company) payable VAT in respect of deliveries made and services performed by L'Orange during the relevant period as of (and including) the Locked Box Date until (and including) the Closing. Any VAT payment in accordance with the preceding sentence can be claimed back by the Purchaser from MTU Friedrichshafen in case of and up to the amount of a VAT correction in favour of MTU Friedrichshafen (or any other Sellers' Group Company) that relates to any such transaction undertaken by L'Orange. MTU Friedrichshafen will repay to L'Orange VAT reimbursements in respect of deliveries and services received by L'Orange during the relevant period as of (and including) the Locked Box Date until (and including) the Closing. The Purchaser shall provide and can be held liable that L'Orange pays back to MTU Friedrichshafen (or any other Sellers' Group Company) any received VAT reimbursement in case of a correction of such VAT reimbursement in respect of any such deliveries and services received by L'Orange. The preceding sentences 3 et seq. shall only apply if and to the extent that the relevant VAT or VAT reimbursements have not yet been cleared by MTU Friedrichshafen (or any other Sellers' Group Company) or L'Orange due to statutory provisions, or pursuant to an implemented VAT allocation scheme or otherwise. The Purchaser shall notify MTU Friedrichshafen without undue delay of any matter relevant in connection with this clause 16.3.5. The Purchaser shall, and is fully responsible that the respective Group Companies shall, cooperate to provide information and documents reasonably necessary for MTU Friedrichshafen (or any other Sellers' Group Company) to file their own VAT returns under the VAT group and to make or ask for any VAT related corrections of invoices issued by or to L'Orange. MTU Friedrichshafen shall, and is fully responsible that the respective Sellers' Group Company shall, cooperate to provide information and documents reasonably necessary for L'Orange to file their own VAT returns after the termination of the VAT group and to make or ask for any VAT related corrections of invoices issued by or to L'Orange. This clause 16.3.5 shall apply accordingly in case the VAT group terminates with effect prior to the Closing with respect to such earlier date. MTU Friedrichshafen and Purchaser agree to, and procure that L'Orange and any other Sellers' Group Company will reasonably work in a mutually beneficial manner, including for example communicating with suppliers and customers, to minimize negative effects for individual VAT group members arising from VAT audits for all periods for which the VAT group existed. If, for example, a Sellers' Group Company shall pay additional VAT due to a VAT audit relating to a supply made by L'Orange and L'Orange has been able to collect a corresponding amount from

27.1 Exhibits and Schedules

27.2 Entire Agreement

This Agreement (including all Exhibits and Schedules hereto) contains the entire agreement between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings with respect thereto except as expressly provided otherwise herein. There are no side agreements to this Agreement.

71

[***] Confidential treatment has been requested for the bracketed portions. The confidential redacted portion has been omitted and filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

27.3 Amendments to this Agreement

This Agreement or any of its provisions (including this clause 27.3) may be amended, waived or terminated only by written instrument (or any stricter form required by mandatory law) executed by all Parties and explicitly referring to this Agreement.

27.4 Assignment

Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, no Party may assign, delegate or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the consent of the other Parties.

27.5 Interpretation

27.5.1 The table of contents and the descriptive headings and sub-headings of the clauses and subclauses and appendices contained in this Agreement are for convenience and reference purposes only. They shall be disregarded for purposes of interpreting or construing this Agreement.

27.5.2 The obligation of a Party to use best efforts to accomplish an objective shall be construed as an obligation to timely take all reasonable actions that a diligent party would be expected to take in its own interest in order to achieve such objective, and not as an absolute obligation to ensure that such objective is, in fact, accomplished.

27.5.3 Any reference in this Agreement to a “day” or number of “days” (without the explicit qualification of Business Day) shall be interpreted as a reference to a calendar day or number of calendar days. If any action or notice is to be taken or given on or by a particular calendar day, and such calendar day is not a Business Day, then such action or notice shall be deferred until, or may be taken or given on, the next Business Day.

27.5.4 Any references made in this Agreement to any types of companies or equity participations, proceedings, government authorities or other bodies, rights, institutions, regulations or legal relationships under German law shall extend to any equivalent (funktionsgleich) legal terms under foreign law to the extent that relevant facts and circumstances must be assessed under such foreign law. If there is no functionally equivalent legal term under the foreign law, then such legal term which most closely reflects the functionality of the legal term under German law shall be referenced into the Agreement.

27.5.5 Any reference made in this Agreement to any clauses, paragraphs, sentences, Exhibits and Schedules without further indication of a law or an agreement shall mean the clauses, paragraphs, sentences, Exhibits and Schedules of this Agreement.

27.5.6 This Agreement is executed in the English language, but has been prepared against a German commercial and legal background. If any term of this Agreement is open for interpretation, the intended German meaning shall prevail. Where a German term has been inserted in parenthesis or italics, this German term alone (and not the English term to which it relates) shall be authoritative for the purpose of the interpretation of the relevant English term in this Agreement.

27.6 Severability

Should any provision of this Agreement be or become, either in whole or in part, void (nichtig), ineffective (unwirksam) or unenforceable (undurchsetzbar), then the validity, effectiveness and enforceability of the other provisions of this Agreement shall remain unaffected thereby. Any such invalid, ineffective or unenforceable provision shall, to the extent permitted by law, be deemed replaced by such valid, effective and enforceable provision as most closely reflects the economic intent and purpose of the invalid, ineffective or unenforceable provision regarding its subject matter, scale, time, place and scope of application. The aforesaid rule shall apply mutatis mutandis to fill any unintended gap that may be found to exist in this Agreement. It is the express intent of the Parties hereto that this clause 27.6 shall not merely result in a reversal of the burden of proof but that sec. 139 BGB is hereby contracted out in its entirety.
