NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual representations, warranties, covenants and agreements herein contained, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

Article I

PURCHASE AND SALE; ASSUMPTION OF LIABILITIES

Section 1.1 Purchase and Sale of the Diversey Shares. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement and the Local Purchase Agreements, at the Closing, subject to Section 5.16, SEE shall cause each of the Diversey Share Sellers to sell, convey, assign, transfer, and deliver to Buyer or the applicable Diversey Share Buyer (or, in the case of qualifying shares required under applicable Law to be held by director nominees, Buyer’s designee), and Buyer shall, or shall cause each of the Diversey Share Buyers (or, in the case of qualifying shares required under applicable Law to be held by director nominees, Buyer’s designee) to, purchase, acquire, and accept from each such Diversey Share Seller, all right, title and interest of SEE and such other Diversey Share Seller in and to the shares of capital stock or other equity interests (the “Diversey Shares”) of each of the Transferred Diversey Companies, free and clear of all Encumbrances, other than Encumbrances arising under the SEE Credit Facilities (provided that, in each case, such Encumbrances are removed at the Closing), local lines of credit, letters of credit, or equipment leases of the Transferred Diversey Companies (provided that such Encumbrances are removed at the Closing or such local lines of credit or letters of credit are Assumed Lines of Credit or such equipment leases are Assumed Equipment Leases), and the restrictions imposed by federal, state, and foreign securities laws and the organizational and other governing documents of such Transferred Diversey Companies.

Section 1.2 Purchase and Sale of the Acquired Diversey Assets; Excluded Assets. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement and the Local Purchase Agreements, at the Closing, subject to the exclusions set forth in Section 5.16, SEE shall, or shall cause each of the Diversey Asset Sellers to, sell, convey, assign, transfer, and deliver to Buyer or the applicable Diversey Asset Buyer, and Buyer shall, or shall cause each of the applicable Diversey Asset Buyers to, purchase, acquire, and accept from the applicable Diversey Asset Seller, all of SEE’s and each such Diversey Asset Seller’s right, title, and interest in and to the Diversey Assets (other than the equity of the Transferred Diversey Companies and any Diversey Assets held by the Transferred Diversey Companies or their Subsidiaries) (the “Acquired Diversey Assets”), free and clear of all Encumbrances other than Permitted Encumbrances. The Excluded Assets shall be retained by the Sellers and their Affiliates (other than the Transferred Diversey Companies and their Subsidiaries) and shall be excluded from the Acquired Diversey Assets or shall otherwise be transferred out of the Transferred Diversey Companies and their Subsidiaries (if held by a Transferred Diversey Company) prior to the Closing pursuant to the Restructuring Plan and the other terms of this Agreement.

Section 2.3 The Closing.

(a)Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including Section 2.3(b), the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby (the “Closing”) shall, subject to the satisfaction or waiver (if permitted under Law) of the conditions set forth in Article VII, be held at the offices of Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP at One Rodney Square, Wilmington, Delaware (or such other place or places as the parties may mutually agree) (i) on the later of (A) a date which shall be the third (3rd) Business Day after the satisfaction or waiver in accordance with this Agreement by the party having the benefit of the applicable condition (to the extent permitted by applicable Law) of the conditions set forth in Article VII (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied by actions to be taken at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver in accordance with this Agreement by the party having the benefit of the applicable condition (to the extent permitted by applicable Law) of all conditions at the Closing), and (B) the earlier of (x) a date during the Marketing Period to be specified by Buyer on no fewer than three (3) Business Days’ notice to the Company, and (y) the third (3rd) Business Day following the final day of the Marketing Period, unless the final day of the Marketing Period is less than three (3) Business days prior to the Outside Date, in which case the Outside Date shall be the Closing Date (subject, in the case of each of subclauses (x) and (y) of this clause (B), to the satisfaction (or waiver in accordance with this Agreement by the party having the benefit of the applicable condition (to the extent permitted by applicable Law)) of all conditions set forth in Article VII as of the date determined pursuant to this Section 2.3(a) (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the fulfillment (or waiver in accordance with this Agreement by the party having the benefit of the applicable condition (to the extent permitted by applicable Law) of all conditions at the Closing)); or (ii) at such other place, date, and time as the Company and Buyer may agree in writing; provided that in no event shall either party be required to effect the Closing prior to September 5, 2017 (the “Inside Date”). The date on which the Closing actually occurs is hereinafter referred to as the “Closing Date.” Notwithstanding the actual occurrence of the Closing at any particular time on the Closing Date, if the Closing occurs, the Closing shall be deemed effective as of 12:01 a.m., Eastern Time, on the Closing Date (the “Effective Time”) with SEE owning the Diversey Assets and the Diversey Shares for the entire calendar day immediately preceding the Closing Date and Buyer owning the Diversey Assets and the Diversey Shares for the entire Closing Date.

(b)The sale and purchase of any Diversey Shares and Diversey Assets in the jurisdictions outside the United States set forth in Section 2.3(b) of the Seller’s Disclosure Schedule shall occur in escrow on the Local Business Day immediately preceding the Closing Date (each, a “Local Closing”). At each Local Closing, the

4

relevant Diversey Share Seller or Diversey Asset Seller, as the case may be, shall deliver the respective Local Purchase Agreement (to the extent required and not previously delivered) and any documents, certificates, and instruments of transfer contemplated thereby to the relevant Diversey Share Buyer or Diversey Asset Buyer, as the case may be, and the relevant Diversey Share Buyer or Diversey Asset Buyer shall deliver the respective Local Purchase Agreement (to the extent required and not previously delivered) and any documents, certificates, and instruments contemplated thereby to the relevant Diversey Share Seller or Diversey Asset Seller, as the case may be (collectively, the “Local Closing Documents”); provided that no notarial process shall be a condition to the Closing. The consummation of each Local Closing shall be subject to the condition precedent that the Closing occur. All agreements and documents executed at the respective Local Closings (save, to extent required by applicable Law, for the Dutch notarial deed of transfer of shares in the capital of Diversey Professional B.V.) shall be held in escrow pending the Closing. If the Closing does not occur, all agreements, documents, and instruments executed at the respective Local Closings and held in escrow shall be returned to the parties that have executed such documents and such parties shall retain their respective positions preceding the Local Closings. For the avoidance of doubt, subject to Section 2.7(a) in connection with the France Purchase Price and Section 5.16(g), the payment of any portion of the Purchase Price or Preliminary Purchase Price attributable to a Local Closing shall be subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Article VII and shall be deemed to be due and to have been made at the time at which the Closing occurs in accordance with Section 2.3(a).

(c)Buyer and SEE acknowledge and agree that (i) conditions to the transfer of the French Shares set forth in the French Offer Letter may be satisfied after the conditions to the transfer of other Diversey Shares and Diversey Assets set forth in Article VII have been satisfied and in any such case Closing shall take place with respect to all Diversey Shares and Diversey Assets other than the French Shares; and (ii) (A) the consummation of the sale of the French Shares (the “France Closing”) shall occur substantially in accordance with the terms of the French Offer Letter (as finalized, as the case may be, following the consultation process described in Section 2.7 below) and (B) the consummation of the sale of the shares in the capital of Diversey Professional B.V. (the “Dutch Closing”) shall occur substantially in accordance with the terms of the Dutch Offer Letter and the applicable Local Purchase Agreement. Buyer and SEE further acknowledge and agree that (1) subject to the subsequent clause (2) of this sentence, all actions and documents relating to the transfer of the French Shares (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any Local Closing Documents relating to the French Shares) shall not be required to be taken or delivered at the Closing but only at the France Closing; and (2) all references to Closing Net Working Capital, Closing Cash, Closing Indebtedness, Closing Seller Expenses and any other items taken into account in the Purchase Price adjustment in accordance with this Agreement shall not be adjusted to reflect the exclusion of the French Shares, at Closing but shall be reflected as if the France Closing shall have occurred at the Closing. The covenants set forth in Article V shall apply with respect to the French Entity only from the date of the France Acceptance Notice (other than Sections 5.2, 5.11, and 5.20, which shall apply with respect to the French Entity only from the date of this Agreement) and, to the extent that the France Closing shall not have occurred simultaneously with the Closing, until the France Closing; provided, however,

5

that, for the purposes of the covenants set forth in Section 5.5 only, the French Entity shall be deemed to be a Transferred Diversey Company only upon occurrence of the France Closing. With respect to the French Entity or any Subsidiary thereof, SEE shall provide Buyer prior notice of any intended material action described in Section 5.1(i)(ii)-(i)(iv), Section 5.1(q), or Section 5.1(r) and shall reasonably consult with Buyer and provide the Buyer with such information as is reasonably requested by the Buyer in connection with the relevant intended action.

(d)On the Closing Date, SEE shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to Buyer the following:

(i)the Local Closing Documents, released from escrow, duly executed by SEE or the applicable Diversey Share Sellers or Diversey Asset Sellers (to the extent each is a party thereto), to the extent not executed and delivered at a Local Closing;

(ii)certificates (if applicable) or equivalent documents or instruments of transfer representing the Diversey Shares duly endorsed or executed (or accompanied by a duly executed stock power) and in form for transfer to Buyer or the applicable Diversey Share Buyer, free and clear of all Encumbrances, other than Encumbrances arising under Assumed Lines of Credit or Assumed Equipment Leases and the restrictions imposed by federal, state, and foreign securities laws and the organizational and other governing documents of such Transferred Diversey Companies;

(iii)such duly executed special warranty deeds and other good and sufficient instruments of conveyance and transfer as shall be effective to vest title in Buyer or the applicable Diversey Asset Buyer to the Owned Real Property;

(iv)the Related Agreements, duly executed by SEE or its Subsidiaries (to the extent each is a party thereto), to the extent not executed and delivered by such parties prior to the Closing;

(vi)a duly executed bill of sale and assignment dated as of the Closing Date, in the form attached as Exhibit A-2 hereto and such other instruments or documents as the Buyer may reasonably request to evidence the Diversey Asset Buyers’ purchase of the Acquired Diversey Assets (other than the Owned Real Property) or otherwise necessary to provide for the transactions contemplated hereby;

6

(vii)evidence reasonably acceptable to Buyer of the release and termination of (i) all Encumbrances on the Acquired Diversey Assets and (ii) any related guarantees provided by a Person constituting the Transferred Diversey Companies and their Subsidiaries, in each case, arising under the SEE Credit Facilities (or any refinancing of any of such agreements) and effective as of the Closing; and

(viii)all other documents and certificates expressly required to be delivered by SEE or its Affiliates on or prior to the Closing Date pursuant to this Agreement.

(e)On the Closing Date, Buyer shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to SEE or its designee the following:

(iv)a duly executed instrument of assumption, dated as of the Closing Date, in the form attached as Exhibit A-1 hereto, and such other documents as SEE may reasonably request or as may be otherwise necessary in order to effect the assumption by Buyer and the Diversey Asset Buyers of (and the release of SEE and the Diversey Asset Sellers and their Affiliates from) the Assumed Liabilities, or otherwise reasonably required by SEE in connection herewith; and

(v)all other documents and certificates expressly required to be delivered by Buyer or its Affiliates on or prior to the Closing Date pursuant to this Agreement.

Section 2.4 Purchase Price Adjustment.

(a)Post-Closing Purchase Price Determination.

(i)No later than one hundred and twenty (120) days after the Closing Date (or, if any Local Closing has not occurred on or before the Closing Date, one hundred and twenty (120) days after the date of the last Local Closing to occur), Buyer shall prepare and deliver to SEE a statement (the “Preliminary Adjustment Statement”), in substantially the same format as the Estimated Statement, containing (A) an unaudited combined balance sheet of the Diversey

7

Business as of the Effective Time (excluding the Excluded Assets and the Retained Liabilities) prepared in good faith by Buyer in accordance with the Accounting Principles and (B) a reasonably detailed calculation by Buyer of (1) the Closing Net Working Capital of the Diversey Business prepared in accordance with Exhibit B, (2) the Closing Cash prepared in accordance with the Accounting Principles, (3) the Closing Indebtedness prepared in accordance with the Accounting Principles, (4) the Closing Seller Expenses, in each case of clauses (1) through (4), as of the Effective Time and in accordance with the definitions herein (the “Adjusted Closing Amounts”), and (5) the amount of Trapped Cash as of the Closing Date (specifying the jurisdiction and Transferred Diversey Company (or Subsidiary thereof) which owns such Trapped Cash), together with reasonable documentation supporting the basis of all such calculations.

(ii)If SEE disagrees with Buyer’s calculation of the Adjusted Closing Amounts, SEE shall, no later than sixty (60) days after receiving the Preliminary Adjustment Statement (the “Review Period”), deliver to Buyer written notice specifying those items or amounts as to which SEE disagrees, together with SEE’s determination of such disputed items and amounts and a reasonably detailed description for the basis of such disagreement (a “Dispute Notice”). If SEE either gives notice that it agrees with Buyer’s calculation of the Adjusted Closing Amounts or fails to deliver a Dispute Notice within the Review Period, Buyer and SEE agree that the Preliminary Adjustment Statement shall be deemed to set forth the Adjusted Closing Amounts with respect to those items that have been agreed upon or for which SEE shall have failed to deliver a Dispute Notice (and shall constitute the respective Final Adjusted Closing Amount). If SEE delivers a Dispute Notice to Buyer within the Review Period, SEE and Buyer will work together in good faith and use reasonable best efforts to resolve the dispute during the period of thirty (30) days commencing on the date SEE delivers the Dispute Notice to Buyer (and all such discussions related thereto shall be governed by Rule 408 of the Federal Rules of Evidence and any applicable similar state rule, and evidence of such discussions shall not be admissible in any future proceedings between the parties). If Buyer and SEE are not able to resolve all disputed items within such period of thirty (30) days, then either party shall have the right to submit the items or amounts in dispute following the expiration of such period of thirty (30) days to Houlihan Lokey, Inc., or if Houlihan Lokey, Inc. is unwilling to serve, another mutually acceptable internationally recognized independent accounting, valuation or consulting firm (the “Accounting Firm”). The Accounting Firm shall be given reasonable access to all relevant records of the Diversey Business, including the Buyer and its Subsidiaries (including the Transferred Diversey Companies and their Subsidiaries), and the Sellers (to the extent applicable) to calculate the Adjusted Closing Amounts. The Accounting Firm, acting as an expert and not as an arbitrator, shall make its determination based solely on written submissions provided by Buyer, on the one hand, and SEE, on the other hand, regarding their respective positions on the disputed matters, which written submissions shall be provided to the Accounting Firm, if at all, no later than ten (10) Business Days after the date of referral of the disputed matters to the Accounting Firm. A copy of all materials submitted to the

8

Accounting Firm pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence shall be provided by Seller or Buyer, as applicable, to the other party concurrently with the submission thereof to the Accounting Firm. The Accounting Firm shall be instructed that its calculations must be made in accordance with the Accounting Principles, Exhibit B, and the standards and definitions in this Agreement and that Accounting Firm may not assign a value to any item greater than the greatest value for such item claimed by either SEE or Buyer or less than the smallest value for such item claimed by either SEE or Buyer. SEE and Buyer shall instruct the Accounting Firm to deliver a written report resolving only the disputed matters and setting forth the basis for such resolution within thirty (30) days after Buyer and SEE have submitted in writing (or have had the opportunity to submit in writing but have not submitted) their positions as to the disputed items. The determination by the Accounting Firm of the Adjusted Closing Amounts, as set forth in a written report delivered to Buyer and SEE by the Accounting Firm in accordance with this Agreement, will be binding and conclusive on Buyer and SEE, absent manifest error. The Adjusted Closing Amounts as determined after all disputes have been resolved in accordance with this Section 2.4(a)(ii) are referred to herein collectively as the “Final Adjusted Closing Amounts” and individually as the “Final Closing Net Working Capital,” the “Final Closing Cash,” the “Final Closing Indebtedness,” and the “Final Closing Seller Expenses,” respectively.

(iii)The costs and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be borne by Buyer in the proportion that the aggregate dollar amount of the items that are successfully disputed by SEE (as finally determined by the Accounting Firm) bears to the aggregate dollar amount of the items submitted to the Accounting Firm and by SEE in the proportion that the aggregate dollar amount of the disputed items that are unsuccessfully disputed by SEE (as finally determined by the Accounting Firm) bears to the aggregate dollar amount of the items submitted to the Accounting Firm. The Accounting Firm shall include such apportionment of its fees and expenses in its report to Buyer and SEE.

(iv)In connection with SEE’s review of the Preliminary Adjustment Statement, Buyer shall (A) provide reasonable access, during normal business hours and upon reasonable notice, to its employees and all work papers, schedules, and other documents prepared or reviewed by Buyer or any of its employees and accountants or other representatives during the course of its review which are relevant to the Preliminary Adjustment Statement (which access shall be provided promptly after request by SEE or its representatives) and (B) use reasonable best efforts to cause Buyer’s independent accountant to communicate and cooperate with SEE and its representatives with respect to such review.

9

(v)The process set forth set forth in this Section 2.4(a) and Section 2.4(b) for resolving disputes with respect to the calculation of Adjusted Closing Amounts shall be the exclusive process of SEE and Buyer for all disputes related to the calculation of Adjusted Closing Amounts; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, any underlying items shall still be subject to the other remedies under this Agreement, including Article VI and Section 8.4, without duplication for amounts previously included in the Adjusted Closing Amounts.

(b)Final Purchase Price Determination.

(i)Promptly upon determination of the Final Adjusted Closing Amounts pursuant to Section 2.4(a), the amount that would have been paid pursuant to Section 2.2 if the applicable Final Adjusted Closing Amounts had been substituted for the Estimated Closing Net Working Capital, Estimated Closing Cash, Estimated Closing Indebtedness, and Estimated Closing Seller Expenses, shall be paid as follows:

(1)if such substitution, when netted, would have resulted in a Purchase Price that is less than the Preliminary Purchase Price paid at Closing, then SEE shall pay to Buyer an aggregate amount equal to such shortfall pursuant to Section 2.4(b)(ii);

(2)if such substitution, when netted, would have resulted in a Purchase Price that is greater than the Preliminary Purchase Price paid at Closing, then Buyer shall pay to SEE an aggregate amount equal to such excess pursuant to Section 2.4(b)(ii); and

(3)if such substitution, when netted, would have resulted in a Purchase Price that is equal to the Preliminary Purchase Price paid at Closing, then there shall be no adjustment to the Preliminary Purchase Price.

(ii)Buyer or SEE, as the case may be and if applicable, shall, within three (3) Business Days of the determination of the Final Adjusted Closing Amounts and the calculations in Section 2.4(b)(i) make any payments pursuant to Section 2.4(b)(i)(1) or Section 2.4(b)(i)(2), as the case may be, to the other by wire transfer of immediately available funds to one or more accounts designated by the other.

Section 2.5 Allocation of Purchase Price.

(a)Section 2.5(a) of the Seller’s Disclosure Schedule sets forth an allocation of the Base Purchase Price, the estimated amount of Assumed Liabilities and all other capitalized costs, to the extent relevant, (i) among Diversey Shares and the Acquired Diversey Assets, (ii) to the Acquired Diversey Assets in the aggregate sold by each Diversey Asset Seller (but not among the individual Acquired Diversey Assets of such Diversey Asset Seller), (iii) to any Transferred DRE, and (iv) attributable to any Indirect Transfer Entity.

10

(b)SEE shall deliver to Buyer no later than thirty (30) days after the Closing Date a schedule (the “Preliminary Allocation Schedule”) allocating the Preliminary Purchase Price, the amount of the Assumed Liabilities, and all other capitalized costs, to the extent relevant, among the Diversey Shares, the Acquired Diversey Assets, any Transferred DRE, and any Indirect Transfer Entity, in each case, in accordance with SEE’s good faith estimate of their respective fair market values on the Closing Date; provided, however, that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Preliminary Allocation Schedule shall differ from Section 2.5(a) of the Seller’s Disclosure Schedule only (i) to take into account Assumed Liabilities and all other capitalized costs, the Estimated Closing Net Working Capital, Estimated Closing Cash, Estimated Closing Seller Expenses, and Estimated Closing Indebtedness and (ii) to the extent an independent appraisal received by SEE and provided to Buyer from CBIZ, Inc. or any of its affiliates, or any appraisal firm that is nationally recognized in the United States or the jurisdiction in which it performed such appraisal, of any Acquired Diversey Assets (the “Seller Appraisal”) differs from Section 2.5(a) of the Seller’s Disclosure Schedule (including any necessary adjustments to take into account the effect of such Appraisal on other Acquired Diversey Assets). If any draft Seller Appraisal differs from Section 2.5(a) of Seller’s Disclosure Schedule by more than 20%, SEE shall notify Buyer and Buyer shall be permitted an opportunity to review such draft Seller Appraisal and to discuss it with the applicable appraisal firm providing such Seller Appraisal. If, following such discussions, Buyer and SEE are unable to reach agreement regarding the Seller Appraisal, they shall promptly thereafter cause PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP or any of its local affiliates to obtain or cause to be obtained an independent appraisal of the Acquired Diversey Assets (the “Third Party Appraisal”)), which Third Party Appraisal shall control for purposes of determining the Final Allocation Schedule. If Buyer disagrees with the Assumed Liabilities and all other capitalized costs, the Estimated Closing Net Working Capital, Estimated Closing Cash, Estimated Closing Seller Expenses, or Estimated Closing Indebtedness (as reflected on the Preliminary Allocation Schedule), Buyer may, within thirty (30) days after delivery of the Preliminary Allocation Schedule, deliver a notice (the “Buyer Allocation Notice”) to SEE to such effect, specifying those items as to which Buyer disagrees and setting forth Buyer’s proposed allocation. If the Buyer Allocation Notice is duly delivered, Buyer and SEE shall, during the twenty (20) days following such delivery, work together in good faith and use reasonable best efforts to reach agreement on the disputed items or amounts. If Buyer and SEE are unable to reach agreement on such items and their effect on the Preliminary Allocation Schedule, they shall promptly thereafter cause the Accounting Firm to resolve any remaining disputes with respect to such items and their effect on the Preliminary Allocation Schedule. The Preliminary Allocation Schedule, as it may be adjusted pursuant to any agreement between SEE and Buyer, as determined by the Accounting Firm, or pursuant to the Third Party Appraisal (the “Final Allocation Schedule”), shall be conclusive and binding on SEE, Buyer, and their respective Subsidiaries and Affiliates; provided, however, that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Final Allocation Schedule shall differ from Section 2.5(a) of the Seller’s Disclosure Schedule only (i) to take into account the Assumed Liabilities and all other capitalized costs, the Estimated Closing Net Working Capital, Estimated Closing Cash, Estimated Closing Seller Expenses, and Estimated Closing Indebtedness and (ii) to take into account any Seller Appraisal or Third Party Appraisal, as applicable.

11

(c)No later than forty-five (45) days after the Final Allocation Schedule has been finally determined, SEE, on behalf of itself and the other Sellers, shall deliver to Buyer a schedule (the “Preliminary Asset Allocation Schedule”) (i) allocating among the Acquired Diversey Assets sold by each Diversey Asset Seller the Preliminary Purchase Price (or, if finally determined, the Purchase Price), the Assumed Liabilities, and all other capitalized costs to the extent relevant, allocated to such Diversey Asset Seller on the Final Allocation Schedule and (ii) allocating among the assets of any 338 Entity (if any) or any Transferred DRE the Preliminary Purchase Price (or, if finally determined, the Purchase Price) the Assumed Liabilities, and all other capitalized costs, to the extent relevant, allocated to the applicable Diversey Share Seller on the Final Allocation Schedule, in each case, in a manner consistent with Section 1060 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder. For the avoidance of doubt, the Preliminary Asset Allocation Schedule shall be limited to the specific assets and liabilities described in the immediately preceding sentence and shall be consistent in all respects with the Final Allocation Schedule. If Buyer disagrees with the Preliminary Asset Allocation Schedule, Buyer may, within thirty (30) days after delivery of the Preliminary Asset Allocation Schedule, deliver a Buyer Allocation Notice to SEE to such effect, specifying those items as to which Buyer disagrees and setting forth Buyer’s proposed allocation. If the Buyer Allocation Notice is duly delivered, Buyer and SEE shall, during the twenty (20) days following such delivery, work together in good faith and use reasonable best efforts to reach agreement on the disputed items or amounts. If Buyer and SEE are unable to reach such agreement, they shall promptly thereafter cause the Accounting Firm to resolve any remaining disputes with respect to the Assumed Liabilities and all other capitalized costs; provided, however, that such resolution shall be consistent with the Final Allocation Schedule and any Seller Appraisal or Third Party Appraisal, as applicable, shall control for purposes of determining the Final Asset Allocation Schedule. The Preliminary Asset Allocation Schedule, as it may be adjusted pursuant to any agreement between SEE and Buyer or as determined by the Accounting Firm (the “Final Asset Allocation Schedule”), shall be conclusive and binding on SEE, Buyer and their respective Subsidiaries and Affiliates.

(d)SEE and Buyer shall (and shall cause their respective Subsidiaries and Affiliates to) (i) be bound by the Final Allocation Schedule and the Final Asset Allocation Schedule (together with the Final Allocation Schedule, the “Allocation”), for purposes of determining any Taxes, (ii) prepare and file IRS Form 8594 and any other comparable forms required under applicable Tax Law in a manner consistent with the Allocation, (iii) prepare and file its Tax Returns (and any other document used to determine, assess, or otherwise collect Taxes) on a basis consistent with the Allocation, and (iv) take no position inconsistent with the Allocation on any applicable Tax Return or in any proceeding before any Tax Authority, in each case except as otherwise required pursuant to a Final Determination. In the event that a Tax Authority disputes the Allocation, the party receiving notice of such dispute shall promptly notify the other party hereto, and SEE and Buyer shall (and shall cause their respective Subsidiaries and Affiliates to) use reasonable best efforts to defend such Allocation in any applicable proceeding, and the parties hereto agree that the matter shall be handled as a Tax Audit to which Section 6.4(b)(iii) applies.

12

(e)In the case of any post-Closing adjustment to the Preliminary Purchase Price or any other item treated as an adjustment to purchase price for U.S. federal income Tax purposes, including any indemnification payment made pursuant to this Agreement, SEE and Buyer shall (and shall cause their respective Subsidiaries and Affiliates to) allocate such adjustment to the Transferred Diversey Company or the Diversey Asset Seller to which such adjustment relates and, if relevant for purposes of any applicable Law, to the assets to which such adjustment relates. In the event of any adjustment to the Allocation, the parties shall timely file with any relevant Tax Authority any additional information required to be filed under applicable Law and the parties hereto shall follow the procedures outlined above with respect to review, dispute and resolution in respect of any such adjustment.

Section 2.6 Withholding Rights. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, any party making a payment under this Agreement shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from such payment the amounts required to be deducted and withheld under the Code, or any provision of any U.S. federal, state, local or foreign Tax Law; provided, however, that, if either party becomes aware that any amount is required to be so withheld, it shall promptly notify the other party of any such required deduction or withholding and the parties shall cooperate with each other in good faith to minimize or eliminate such withholding Taxes. Any amounts so withheld shall be timely paid over to the appropriate Tax Authority and the party withholding any such amounts shall promptly provide evidence of such payment to the other party. In addition, any amounts so deducted and withheld and timely paid over to the appropriate Tax Authority shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been delivered and paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.

Section 2.7 Works Council and Consultation Matters.

(a)SEE and Buyer acknowledge that, (i) under the labor Laws of the French Republic, one or more works councils of Diversey (France) S.A.S., a Subsidiary of Diversey France Services S.A.S. (the “French Entity”), must be informed and consulted with respect to the offer made by Buyer to acquire the entire share capital and voting rights of the French Entity (the “French Shares”), and (ii) to the extent required under the labor Laws of the Kingdom of the Netherlands, one or more works councils of Diversey Europe Operations, Diversey B.V., and Diversey Netherlands Production B.V. (the “Dutch Entities”) (or in their place the central works council), must be informed and consulted with respect to (x) the intended sale to Buyer, indirectly, of the entire share capital and voting rights of the Dutch Entities resulting from the sale and transfer of shares in Diversey Professional B.V. (as such, the latter shares referred to as the “Dutch Shares”), (y) any intended financing of such transaction by the Buyer, and (z) any intended changes to the management boards of the Dutch Entities (pursuant to Article 30 of the Dutch Works Council Act), following the offer made by Buyer in this respect and the execution thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement and without prejudice to clause (z) of the provision to Section 2.3(c), unless and until SEE (or the relevant Diversey Share Seller) has (A) executed and delivered to Buyer the France Acceptance Notice, the French Entity will not be considered a Transferred Diversey Company for the purpose of this Agreement, and, if no such France Acceptance Notice is delivered prior to Closing, the Preliminary Purchase Price shall be reduced by the France

13

Purchase Price and (B) executed and delivered to Buyer the Dutch Acceptance Notice, the Dutch Entities will not be considered to have been transferred pursuant to this Agreement.

(b)On the terms and conditions set forth in the offer letter attached as Exhibit J hereto (the “French Offer Letter” and the offer set forth therein, the “French Offer”), including the purchase price specified therein (the “France Purchase Price”), Buyer has irrevocably offered to acquire the French Shares and to have the provisions of this Agreement apply to such French Shares and the French Entity following the completion of the consultation process described in Section 2.7(a). Subject to acceptance of the French Offer by SEE (or the relevant Diversey Share Seller) following the completion of the consultation process described in Section 2.7(a), and upon delivery to Buyer of the executed acceptance notice a proposed draft of which is attached as Schedule 2 to the French Offer Letter (the “France Acceptance Notice”), this Agreement shall apply to the French Shares and, except as set forth in clause (y) of the provision to Section 2.3(c), the French Entity shall be included as a Transferred Diversey Company. It is agreed between SEE and the Buyer that following completion of the consultation process with the works council of Diversey (France) S.A.S., the France Purchase Price, the terms and conditions of the France Acceptance Notice and the conditions upon which the France Closing may occur, may be rejected or adapted, if appropriate, in order to take into consideration the remarks of such works council expressed during such consultation process(es). At the France Closing, Buyer shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, the France Purchase Price and the Local Closing Documents relating to the French Shares in the manner set forth in Section 2.3.

(c)On the terms and conditions set forth in the offer letter attached as Exhibit K hereto (the “Dutch Offer Letter” and the offer set forth therein, the “Dutch Offer”), including the purchase price specified therein (the “Dutch Purchase Price”), Buyer has irrevocably offered to acquire, indirectly, the Dutch Shares and to have the provisions of this Agreement apply to such Dutch Shares and the Dutch Entities following the satisfactory completion of the consultation process described in Section 2.7(a) and (d). For the purposes of the foregoing sentence, “satisfactory completion of the consultation process” shall mean completion of the conditions as defined in Article 2, Section (a), clause (i), under sub-clauses i., ii., and iii. of the Dutch Offer Letter. Subject to acceptance of the Dutch Offer by SEE (or the relevant Diversey Share Seller) following the completion of the consultation process described in Section 2.7(a), and upon delivery to Buyer of the executed acceptance notice attached as Schedule 2 to the Dutch Offer Letter (the “Dutch Acceptance Notice”), this Agreement shall apply to the Dutch Shares and the Dutch Entities shall be included as Subsidiaries of one or more Transferred Diversey Companies transferred to Buyer or its Affiliate pursuant to this Agreement. At the Dutch Closing, Buyer shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, the Local Closing Documents relating to the Dutch Shares in the manner set forth in Section 2.3.

(d)In this Agreement, the employee notification and consultation obligations which must legally have been satisfied before the Closing (other than those in respect of France and the Netherlands) are referred to as the “Consultation Requirements.”

14

Section 2.7(d) of the Seller’s Disclosure Schedule sets forth the Consultation Requirements for the applicable jurisdictions to the Knowledge of SEE as of the date hereof.

(e)Upon the signing of this Agreement, SEE shall as soon as reasonably practicable initiate the processes necessary to comply with the Consultation Requirements set forth in Section 2.7(d) and any other Consultation Requirements with of SEE becomes aware after the date hereof. In this respect, SEE undertakes to use its reasonable best efforts, and to procure that each of its Affiliates shall use its reasonable best efforts, to take such steps as are reasonably necessary or desirable to timely satisfy the Consultation Requirements.

(f)SEE and Buyer shall reasonably cooperate with each other and any relevant Affiliates in connection with the applicable consultation process (including the Consultation Requirements) described in this Section 2.7, including as follows: (i) Buyer shall timely provide any required information relating to Buyer, the Buyer’s intended financing (as it pertains to the Dutch Entities), the expected consequences for persons employed by the French Entity, the Dutch Entities and any other relevant entities for the purposes of the Consultation Requirements and any measures envisaged by Buyer with respect to such consequences, or as otherwise reasonably requested by SEE in respect of or for the purpose of such consultation process and (ii) SEE shall keep Buyer reasonably informed, and in any case upon Buyer’s request, of the status of such consultation and any material developments so far as they relate to the French Entity and the Dutch Entities or any other relevant entities for the purposes of the Consultation Requirements. Without Buyer’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed, SEE (or the relevant Diversey Share Seller) shall not (and shall cause the French Entity, the Dutch Entities and any other relevant entities for the purposes of the Consultation Requirements not to) enter into any Contract with, or make any commitment (other than de minimis commitments) to, the relevant works council or other employee representative body that would bind or impose any obligation (other than de minimis obligations) on Buyer, the French Entity, the Dutch Entities or any other Transferred Diversey Company (or Subsidiary thereof) for the purposes of the Consultation Requirements after the Closing; provided, however, that Buyer’s consent shall not be required with respect to any matter affecting only employees of SEE or its Subsidiaries (including the relevant Diversey Share Seller) who are not Business Employees, in each case, so long as such matter does not impair, hinder, or adversely affect in any material respect the ability of Sellers to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. If, as a result of any such consultation process, changes to this Agreement or the Related Agreements, or further arrangements in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, are considered necessary or appropriate by SEE and Buyer, then SEE and Buyer shall negotiate in good faith the terms of such changes (if any) to this Agreement, the Local Purchase Agreements or any certificate or instrument delivered hereunder or thereunder, or such further arrangements (if any) in connection with such transactions that are appropriate, in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in the French Offer Letter and Dutch Offer Letter (as applicable).

(b)If Buyer disagrees with SEE’s calculation of the Preliminary Audited EBITDA, Buyer shall, no later than thirty (30) days after receiving the Preliminary Audited EBITDA (the “EBITDA Review Period”), deliver to SEE written notice specifying those items or amounts as to which Buyer disagrees, together with Buyer’s determination of such disputed items and amounts and a reasonably detailed description for the basis of such disagreement (a “EBITDA Dispute Notice”). During the EBITDA Review Period, SEE shall promptly provide Buyer with any reasonable documentation and other information requested in connection with Buyer’s review of the Preliminary Audited EBITDA. If Buyer either gives notice that it agrees with SEE’s calculation of the Preliminary Audited EBITDA or fails to deliver an EBITDA Dispute Notice within the EBITDA Review Period, SEE and Buyer agree that the Preliminary Audited EBITDA shall be the final Audited EBITDA. If Buyer delivers an EBITDA Dispute Notice to SEE within the EBITDA Review Period, Buyer and SEE will work together in good faith and use reasonable best efforts to resolve the dispute during the period of thirty (30) days commencing on the date Buyer delivers the EBITDA Dispute Notice to SEE (and all such discussions related thereto shall be governed by Rule 408 of the Federal Rules of Evidence and any applicable similar state rule, and evidence of such discussions shall not be admissible in any future proceedings between the parties). If SEE and Buyer are not able to resolve all disputed items within such period of thirty (30) days, then either party shall have the right to submit the items or amounts in dispute following the expiration of such period of thirty (30) days to the Accounting Firm. The guidelines and process for the determination of the Accounting Firm shall be the same as those described in Section 2.4(a) (substituting five (5) Business Days for ten (10) Business Days and twenty (20) days for thirty (30) days), provided that the Accounting Firm shall be instructed that its calculations must be made in accordance with the definitions in this Agreement. The determination by the Accounting Firm shall be made in the time frames set forth in Section 2.4(a) and in any event prior to the start of the Marketing Period. The determination by the Accounting Firm of the Final Audited EBITDA will be binding and conclusive on Buyer and SEE, absent manifest error. The Audited EBITDA as determined after all disputes have been resolved in accordance with this Section 2.8(b) is referred to herein as the “Final Audited EBITDA.”

Section 3.5 Financial Statements.

(a)Section 3.5(a) of the Seller’s Disclosure Schedule sets forth the unaudited combined financial statements of the Diversey Business for and as of the fiscal years ended December 31, 2015, and December 31, 2016 (collectively, and together with the notes thereto, the “Unaudited Financial Statements”).

As a result, the Diversey Business received certain allocated charges as discussed more fully in the notes accompanying such Unaudited Financial Statements. Such charges do not necessarily reflect the amounts which would have resulted from arms-length transactions or which the Diversey Business would incur on a stand-alone basis.

(b)When delivered in accordance with Section 5.26, the (i) audited combined financial statements of the Diversey Business for and as of the fiscal years ended December 31, 2015, and December 31, 2016 (collectively, together with the notes thereto, the “Audited Financial Statements”), and (ii) the unaudited combined financial statements of the Diversey Business as of and for each subsequent fiscal quarter (other than the fourth fiscal quarter of SEE’s fiscal year) ended at least sixty (60) days before the Closing Date (collectively, together with the notes thereto, the “Interim Financial Statements”) shall (A) be, in all material respects, correct and complete as of the dates thereof and for the periods indicated, (B) present fairly in all material respects the financial condition and results of operations, cash flows, and equity holders’ equity of the

(c)SEE has, with respect to the Diversey Business, devised and maintained systems of internal accounting controls sufficient to provide reasonable assurances that (i) transactions are executed in accordance with the appropriate officer’s general or specific authorization, (ii) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit the preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP and to maintain proper accountability for items, (iii) access to the property and assets of SEE and its Subsidiaries is permitted in accordance with management’s general or specific authorization, and (iv) recorded accountability for items is compared with actual levels at reasonable intervals and appropriate action is taken with respect to any differences.

Subject to the receipt of the required consents and approvals set forth on Section 3.4(b) of the Seller’s Disclosure Schedule and Buyer’s performance of its obligations in Section 5.3 and Section 5.4 prior to the Closing, immediately following the Closing, the Transferred Diversey Companies and their Subsidiaries will hold all Permits except where the failure to have a Permit would not reasonably be expected

Buyer has delivered to SEE a true, accurate, and complete copy of an executed commitment letter (the “Equity Commitment Letter” and together with the Debt Commitment Letter, the Fee Letter and the Engagement Letter, the “Financing Commitments”) dated as of the date hereof, from each of the Guarantors pursuant to which, upon the terms and subject only to the conditions set forth therein, the Guarantors have committed to invest the amounts set forth therein (the “Equity Financing,” and together with the Debt Financing, the “Financing”). The Equity Commitment Letter provides that SEE is a third party beneficiary thereof.

(b)As of the date hereof, the Financing Commitments are in full force and effect and have not been withdrawn or terminated, or otherwise amended or modified in any respect, and no such withdrawal or termination is contemplated.

(a)Except for the Related Agreements or the agreements set forth on Section 5.5 of the Seller’s Disclosure Schedule hereto, all intercompany arrangements and agreements providing, leasing, or licensing goods, services, tangible or intangible properties, or joint activities between SEE or any of the Retained Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and any of the Transferred Diversey Companies or their Subsidiaries, on the other hand, shall, unless otherwise expressly agreed in writing by the parties hereto, be terminated and of no further force and effect as of the Closing (or, to the extent that any equity interests in a Transferred Diversey Company or Subsidiary of a Transferred Diversey Company are not transferred to Buyer or the Diversey Share Buyers at the Closing pursuant to Section 5.16, as of such later date on which all such equity interests are transferred to Buyer or the Diversey Share Buyers), in each case, without Liability to the Diversey Business at or after the Closing. Effective prior to the Closing, all outstanding intercompany accounts, whether payables or receivables, between SEE or any of the Retained Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and any of the Transferred Diversey Companies or their Subsidiaries, on the other hand, shall be settled in full and of no

52

further force and effect (it being understood that such settlement shall not in any way affect the Related Agreements or any amounts which may be payable pursuant to any Related Agreement), in each case, without Liability to the Diversey Business at or after the Closing. No later than five (5) Business Days prior to Closing, SEE will provide reasonably satisfactory evidence of the terminations and settlements required under this Section 5.5(a) to Buyer.

(b)Effective as of the Closing, Buyer, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates, including the Transferred Diversey Companies and their Subsidiaries, hereby releases SEE and each of the Retained Subsidiaries (and their respective officers, directors, partners, members, managers, agents, custodians, and employees) from any Liability, obligation, or responsibility to any of them for any and all past actions or failures to take action prior to the Closing, including any actions which may be deemed to have been negligent or grossly negligent, relating to or arising out of Contracts or agreements with SEE or any of its Subsidiaries or the operation or conduct of any businesses, Assets (including activities performed thereat), or operations managed or operated by, or operationally related to, directly or indirectly, the Diversey Business or the Excluded Businesses, except for any obligation of SEE or the Retained Subsidiaries pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement or the Related Agreements that by their terms survive after the Closing.

Section 5.6 Provision of Corporate Records. At Closing or as soon as practicable after the Closing Date, to the extent permitted by Law, SEE shall use reasonable best efforts to deliver or cause to be delivered to Buyer all Transferred Diversey Books and Records then in the possession of SEE or any Retained Subsidiary, and Buyer shall use reasonable best efforts to deliver or cause to be delivered to SEE all SEE Books and Records then in the possession of any Transferred Diversey Company or any of its Subsidiaries. The foregoing shall be limited by the following specific provisions:

(a)To the extent any document (including that stored on electronic media) can be subdivided (including by copying or summarizing the relevant portions) without unreasonable effort into two portions, one of which constitutes a portion of the Transferred Diversey Books and Records and the other of which constitutes a portion of the SEE Books and Records, such document (other than that stored on electronic media) shall be so sub-divided (including by copying or summarizing the relevant portions), and the original of the portion of such document (other than that stored on electronic media) which constitutes a portion of the Transferred Diversey Books and Records shall be provided to Buyer (with a copy thereof provided to SEE) and the original of the portion of such document (including that stored on electronic media) which constitutes a portion of the SEE Books and Records shall be provided to SEE.

(b)Neither party shall be required to conduct any unreasonably burdensome company-wide search or investigation of files.

(c)For purposes of this Section 5.6, “reasonable best efforts” shall require, without limitation, deliveries of any such specific and discrete books and records requested in writing by either party and then in the possession of the other party.

53

(d)Each party may retain copies of the books and records of the other already in its possession, and may use such books and records as reasonably required for its normal business, tax, accounting, compliance, and administrative purposes, subject to this Agreement and the Related Agreements, and subject to holding in confidence information contained in such books and records in accordance with the requirements and limitations of this Agreement, including Section 5.11. If either party has a reasonable concern regarding the other party’s use of such books and records, such party may, upon reasonable prior written notice and at such party’s sole cost and expense, audit the other party’s use of such books and records at times and in a manner reasonably acceptable to all parties.

(e)Each party may refuse to furnish any Information if it believes in good faith that doing so presents, based on the opinion of counsel (which may be inside counsel), a significant risk of loss of the ability to successfully assert a claim of Privilege; provided that the parties hereto shall cooperate in seeking to find a way to allow disclosure of such information without resulting in a loss of the ability to successfully assert a claim of Privilege.

(f)Neither party shall be required to deliver to the other books and records or portions thereof (i) if such delivery would violate any applicable Law or (ii) which are subject to confidentiality agreements which would by their terms prohibit such delivery; provided, however, if requested by the other party, such party shall use its reasonable best efforts to either (A) deliver such information in a manner (including in a redacted copy) that does not violate applicable Law or (B) seek a waiver of such confidentiality restriction, as applicable.

(g)SEE may redact any Information covered by this Section 5.6 as and solely to the extent such Information relates to the Excluded Businesses, the Excluded Assets or the Retained Liabilities.

(h)Buyer may redact any Information covered by this Section 5.6 as and solely to the extent such Information relates to Buyer’s business, assets or liabilities other than the Transferred Diversey Companies and their Subsidiaries, the Diversey Assets and the Assumed Liabilities.

Section 5.7 Retained Names.

(a)Following the Closing, Buyer shall (i) cause the Transferred Diversey Companies and their Subsidiaries, as soon as practicable, but in no event later than twenty (20) Business Days following the Closing Date, to change their names, including making any necessary legal filings with the appropriate Governmental Authority to effect such change, and cause the certificates of incorporation (or equivalent organizational documents), as applicable, of the Transferred Diversey Companies and their Subsidiaries to be amended to remove any reference to “Sealed Air Corporation” or any other Retained Name and (ii) cause the Transferred Diversey Companies and their Subsidiaries and the Diversey Asset Buyers, as soon as practicable, but in no event later than twelve (12) months following the Closing Date (the “Transition Period”), to cease to use or to

54

Subject to this Section 5.7(a) and Section 5.7(b), each applicable Seller hereby grants to Buyer, the Transferred Diversey Companies and their Subsidiaries, and the Diversey Asset Buyers a non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide, irrevocable license during the Transition Period to use the Retained Names solely in connection with the operation of the Diversey Business.

(b)Any use of the Retained Names by the Transferred Diversey Companies and their Subsidiaries permitted by this Section 5.7 shall be subject to the following conditions:

(i)Use of the Retained Names shall be in substantially the same form and manner, to no greater extent (without a material increase in the extent or type of uses of the Retained Names), and subject to the same standards of quality, of that used by the applicable Seller (or its applicable Affiliates) during the twelve (12)-month period prior to the Closing Date (such period, the “Look-back Period”);

(ii)The Retained Names shall not be used in a manner that reflects negatively on such Retained Name or on SEE or any of its Affiliates;

(iii)Buyer and its Affiliates shall not apply to register or register any of the Trademarks forming a part of the Retained Names;

(v)Buyer and its Affiliates shall, in connection with all written uses of the Retained Names in connection with the Diversey Business, including on any packaging materials, displays, signs, promotional materials, forms, and websites, include a clear statement that the associated products or services are manufactured by or otherwise emanate from the Transferred Diversey Companies and their Subsidiaries and not from SEE; and

(vi)Upon the expiration or termination of their respective rights under this Section 5.7, Buyer and its Affiliates hereby assign to SEE their rights, if any, to any Trademarks forming a part of with the Retained Names.

(c)No use by or on behalf of Buyer, any Transferred Diversey Company (or any of its Subsidiaries), or a Diversey Asset Buyer of the Retained Names, or any

55

component thereof, in a manner consistent with the practices of the applicable Seller (or its applicable Affiliates) during the Look-back Period shall constitute a breach of this Section 5.7. Further, neither Buyer nor any Transferred Diversey Company (or any of its Subsidiaries) or any Diversey Asset Buyer shall be deemed to have violated this Section 5.7, even after the Transition Period, by reason of: (i) the appearance of any Retained Name on any written or electronic data, materials, or assets that are used for internal purposes only in connection with the Diversey Business; or (ii) the use of any Retained Name in a non-trademark manner in textual sentences that is factually accurate and non-prominent for purposes of conveying to customers or the general public that the Diversey Business is no longer affiliated with SEE, or to reference historical details concerning or make historical reference to the Diversey Business.

(d)Except as expressly provided in this Section 5.7, Buyer and its Affiliates, other than the Transferred Diversey Companies and their Subsidiaries, shall have no right to use any of the Retained Names.

(e)Without limitation to any other remedies, if Buyer and its Affiliates fail to comply with the foregoing terms and conditions or otherwise fail to comply with any reasonable direction of SEE or any of its Affiliates in relation to the use of the Retained Names, SEE shall (i) be entitled to a temporary, preliminary or permanent injunction or other equitable relief in accordance with Section 9.7 (in addition to any other remedy available at law or in equity) and (ii) have the right to terminate the foregoing license, effective twenty (20) Business Days after Buyer’s receipt of written notice from SEE of such failure to comply if such failure remains uncured.

(f)No later than twenty (20) Business Days after the Closing, each Seller and each of its Affiliates shall cease any and all use of Trademarks included in the Diversey Assets (such Trademarks, the “Acquired Trademarks”). No Seller or any Seller Affiliate shall be deemed to have violated this Section 5.7(f) by reason of the use of any Acquired Trademark in a non-trademark manner in textual sentences that is factually accurate and non-prominent, including for purposes of conveying to customers or the general public that each Seller and each of its Affiliates is no longer operating the Diversey Business or to make historical reference to the Diversey Business.

Section 5.8 Guarantees.

(a)Prior to the Closing, SEE and Buyer shall cooperate, and shall use their respective reasonable best efforts, to terminate, or, if the parties are unable to so terminate, cause Buyer or one of its Affiliates to be substituted in all respects for SEE or the applicable Retained Subsidiary in respect of, all obligations of SEE or any of the Retained Subsidiaries under SEE Guarantees effective as of the Closing Date.

(b)With respect to any SEE Guarantees that remain outstanding after the Closing, (i) SEE and Buyer shall continue to cooperate and use their respective reasonable best efforts to terminate, or, if the parties are unable to so terminate, cause Buyer or one of its Affiliates to be substituted in all respects for SEE or any Retained Subsidiary in respect of, all obligations under SEE Guarantees; (ii) Buyer shall indemnify

56

and hold harmless SEE Indemnified Parties from and against any Losses arising from or relating to such SEE Guarantees with respect to all periods from and after the Closing; and (iii) Buyer shall not permit any of the Transferred Diversey Companies or any of their Subsidiaries or Affiliates to (A) renew or extend the term of, (B) increase its obligations under, (C) transfer to another third party, or (D) amend in any manner, except as contemplated pursuant to clause (i) above or otherwise required by this Agreement, any loan, Contract, or other obligation for which SEE or any Retained Subsidiary is or would reasonably be expected to be liable under such SEE Guarantee. To the extent that SEE or the Retained Subsidiaries have performance obligations under any SEE Guarantee, Buyer will use reasonable best efforts to (x) perform such obligations on behalf of SEE and the Retained Subsidiaries and (y) otherwise take such action as reasonably requested by SEE so as to put SEE and the Retained Subsidiaries in the same position as if Buyer, and not SEE or any Retained Subsidiary, had performed or were performing such obligations.

(c)Prior to the Closing, SEE and Buyer shall cooperate and Buyer shall use reasonable best efforts to replace all letters of credit issued by SEE or the Retained Subsidiaries on behalf of or in favor of any of the Transferred Diversey Companies, any of their Subsidiaries, or the Diversey Business (the “SEE Letters of Credit”) as promptly as practicable with letters of credit from Buyer or one of its Affiliates as of the Closing Date. With respect to any SEE Letters of Credit that remain outstanding after the Closing Date, (i) Buyer shall indemnify and hold harmless SEE Indemnified Parties from and against any Losses arising from or relating to such letters of credit with respect to all periods from and after the Closing, including any fees in connection with the issuance and maintenance of such letters of credit; and (ii) without the prior written consent of SEE, Buyer and its Subsidiaries shall not, and shall not permit any of the Transferred Diversey Companies or any of their Subsidiaries or Affiliates to, enter into, renew, or extend the term of, increase its obligations under, or transfer to a third party, any loan, lease, Contract, or other obligation in connection with which SEE or any Retained Subsidiary has issued any letters of credit which remain outstanding. The parties hereto agree that neither SEE nor any of the Retained Subsidiaries will have any obligation to renew any letters of credit issued on behalf of any Transferred Diversey Company (or any Subsidiary thereof) or the Diversey Business after the Closing, including upon expiration of any such letter of credit.

(d)At the discretion of Buyer, Buyer may by written notice delivered to SEE not less than thirty (30) days prior to the Closing Date elect to assume any or all local lines of credit and letters of credit of the Transferred Diversey Companies, any of their Subsidiaries, or the Diversey Business (the “Assumed Lines of Credit”) or equipment leases of the Transferred Diversey Companies, any of their Subsidiaries, or the Diversey Business (the “Assumed Equipment Leases”), and any such local lines of credit, letters of credit, or equipment leases so assumed shall be an Assumed Liability. Prior to the Closing, SEE and Buyer shall cooperate and SEE shall use reasonable best efforts to terminate as of or prior to the Closing all local lines of credit and letters of credit of the Transferred Diversey Companies, any of their Subsidiaries, or the Diversey Business that are not Assumed Lines of Credit or or any equipment leases that are not Assumed Equipment Leases.

57

(e)For purposes of this Section 5.8, with respect to SEE, “reasonable best efforts” shall not require SEE to, or to cause any of its Subsidiaries to, make or accelerate any payment under any loan, Contract, or other obligation for which SEE or any Retained Subsidiary is or may be liable under any SEE Guarantee or SEE Letter of Credit.

Section 5.9 Post-Closing Access to Information. For a period of seven (7) years from the Closing Date, except as prohibited by applicable Law, SEE and Buyer shall, subject to compliance by the other with the provisions of Section 5.11 and any Related Agreements, afford to each other and to each other’s Representatives reasonable access and duplicating rights (with all costs to be borne by the requesting party) during normal business hours to all books and records (including accountants’ work papers), documents, and other information (collectively, “Information”), employees, and auditors within the knowledge, possession, or control of the other party or its Affiliates solely to the extent relating to (a) in the case of requests by Buyer, the Diversey Business, Transferred Diversey Companies (and their Subsidiaries), Diversey Assets, Assumed Liabilities or Transferred Employees and (b) in the case of requests by SEE, the Excluded Businesses, the Excluded Assets or the Retained Liabilities, insofar in each case as such access is reasonably required by SEE or Buyer or any of their Subsidiaries or Affiliates for legitimate business reasons that relate to periods prior to the Closing Date (including the preparation of financial statements for pre-Closing periods included in financial statements delivered by Buyer to lenders after the Closing as contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letters and the preparation by Buyer of an initial filing under the Securities Act or periodic reporting under the Exchange Act) and does not violate any applicable Law or any confidentiality obligations applicable to SEE or Buyer or any of their Subsidiaries or Affiliates, as the case may be (and SEE and Buyer, as applicable, shall use reasonable best efforts to cause persons or firms possessing relevant Information to provide similar access) and, to the extent practicable, such Information is identified by the requesting party with reasonable specificity; provided, however, that no party shall be required to disclose any Information pursuant to this Agreement if (i) it believes in good faith that doing so presents a significant risk, based on an opinion of counsel (which may be inside counsel), of loss of the ability to successfully assert a claim of Privilege or (ii) SEE or any of its Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries, on the other hand, are adverse parties in a litigation (other than a litigation with respect to a claim for indemnification under this Agreement) and such information is reasonably pertinent thereto; provided, further, that, in the case of clause (i) above, the parties hereto shall reasonably cooperate in seeking to find a way (including by means of a redacted copy) to allow disclosure of such information without loss of the ability to successfully assert a claim of Privilege; provided, further, that SEE and its Affiliates shall not be required to provide Buyer or its Representatives with any Information (including projections and other information related thereto) to the extent related to the Sale Process or SEE’s or its Representatives’ evaluation thereof, other than projections, or financial or other information prepared in the ordinary course of the Diversey Business and not prepared for the Sale Process. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, SEE and Buyer shall, subject to compliance by the other with the provisions of Section 5.11 and any Related Agreements, afford to each other and to each other’s Representatives reasonable access and duplicating rights (with all costs to be borne by the requesting party) during normal business hours to all Information for audit and accounting purposes and in connection with any Action to which SEE or any of its Affiliates or Buyer or any of its Affiliates is a party, as well as for purposes of fulfilling disclosure and reporting obligations. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, following the Closing and for as long as such retention is required by applicable

58

Law, Buyer shall, and shall cause the Transferred Diversey Companies and their Subsidiaries to, retain all medical and exposure records of Business Employees and afford SEE and its Affiliates and Representatives with reasonable access to such medical and exposure records. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, following the Closing and for as long as any matter subject to a Retained Environmental Liability remains outstanding or potentially outstanding, Buyer shall, and shall cause the Transferred Diversey Companies, the Diversey Share Buyers, the Diversey Asset Buyers, and their respective Subsidiaries to afford to SEE and its Representatives access at reasonable times to the Transferred Diversey Books and Records and to the officers, employees, and other Representatives, properties, and facilities of Buyer, the Transferred Diversey Companies, the Diversey Share Buyers, the Diversey Asset Buyers, their respective Subsidiaries, and the Diversey Business as SEE may reasonably request in connection with any Retained Environmental Liability.

Section 5.10 Retention of Records. Each party hereto agrees that, upon written request from the other that certain Information relating to the Diversey Business or the transactions contemplated hereby be retained in connection with an Action, the parties shall use reasonable best efforts to preserve and not to destroy or dispose of such Information without the consent of the requesting party. If a party desires to destroy or dispose of any Information required to be retained pursuant to Section 5.9 or otherwise retained at the request of the other party, it shall, at least sixty (60) days prior to such destruction or disposition, first offer to surrender such Information to the other party.

Section 5.11 Confidentiality.

(a)The terms of the Confidentiality Agreement shall continue in full force and effect until the Closing, at which time the Confidentiality Agreement shall terminate, and the provisions of this Section 5.11 shall govern. For a period of seven (7) years from the Closing Date, SEE and Buyer shall hold and shall cause their respective Affiliates (including the Transferred Diversey Companies and their Subsidiaries) to hold, and shall cause their respective Representatives to hold, in strict confidence and not to disclose, release, or use without the prior written consent of the other party, any and all Confidential Information (as defined herein) of such other party (and its Subsidiaries); provided that the parties may disclose, or may permit disclosure of, Confidential Information (i) to their respective Representatives who have a need to know such information and are informed of their obligation to hold such information confidential to the same extent as is applicable to the parties hereto and in respect of whose failure to comply with such obligations, SEE or Buyer, as the case may be, will be responsible or (ii) if the parties hereto, their Affiliates, or their Representatives are required to disclose any such Confidential Information by judicial or administrative process or, in the opinion of legal counsel, by other requirements of Law; provided that, in the event that any demand or request for disclosure of Confidential Information is made pursuant to clause (ii) above, SEE or Buyer, as the case may be, shall, to the extent legally permissible, promptly notify the other of the existence of such request or demand and shall provide the other a reasonable opportunity to seek an appropriate protective order or other remedy, which both parties will reasonably cooperate in obtaining (at the expense of the party whose Confidential Information is being disclosed); provided, further, that, in the event that such appropriate protective order or other remedy is not sought by the other

59

party or is not obtained, the party that is required to disclose such Confidential Information shall furnish, or cause to be furnished, only that portion of the Confidential Information that is legally required to be disclosed. Nothing in this Section 5.11 shall restrict the use of Confidential Information in connection with any dispute between the parties regarding this Agreement, the Related Agreements, or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby. As used in this Section 5.11, “Confidential Information” shall mean all technical, economic, environmental, operational, financial, or other business Information or material of one party which, prior to or following the Closing Date, has been disclosed by SEE or its Affiliates (excluding the Transferred Diversey Companies and their Subsidiaries following the Closing), on the one hand, or by Buyer or its Affiliates (including the Transferred Diversey Companies and their Subsidiaries), on the other hand, to the other party in written, oral (including by recording), electronic, or visual form to, or otherwise has come into the possession of, the other party, in each case including pursuant to the access provisions of Section 5.9 hereof or any other provision of this Agreement or any Related Agreement, including (A) ideas and concepts for existing products, processes, and services; (B) specifications for products, Equipment, and processes; (C) manufacturing and performance specifications and procedures; (D) engineering drawings and graphs; (E) technical, research, and engineering data; (F) formulations and material specifications; (G) laboratory studies and benchmark tests; (H) service and operation manuals; (I) quality assurance policies, procedures, and specifications; (J) evaluation or validation studies; (K) pending patent applications; (L) all other Know-How, methodology, procedures, techniques, and trade secrets related to research, engineering, development, and manufacturing; (M) business information, including marketing and development plans, forecasts, research and development agreements, and customer and vendor information; and (N) all “Proprietary Information” (as that term is used in the Confidentiality Agreement) provided to Buyer or its Affiliates or Representatives; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, the parties acknowledge and agree that all nonpublic information in SEE and its Affiliates’ possession regarding the Diversey Business, the Transferred Diversey Companies, and the Diversey Assets shall following the Closing be deemed “Confidential Information” of the Buyer and its Affiliates under this Section 5.11 (including the Transferred Diversey Companies and their Subsidiaries); provided, further, that Confidential Information does not include Information that (1) is or becomes available to a party hereto on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the other party or any of its Representatives, provided that such other source is not known by such party or any of its Representatives, after reasonable inquiry, to be prohibited from transmitting such information to such party or its Representatives by a contractual, legal, fiduciary, or other obligation or (2) is or becomes available to the public (including by disclosure by such party or its Representatives other than as a result of a breach by such party or any of its Representatives of this Agreement). Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent SEE or its Subsidiaries or Affiliates or their respective Representatives from disclosing or using any Confidential Information to the extent solely used or solely held for use in any Excluded Business or solely related to any Retained Liability.

(b)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, (i) SEE and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and Buyer and its Affiliates (including the Transferred Diversey Companies and their Subsidiaries), on the other hand, shall be deemed to have

60

satisfied their obligations hereunder with respect to Confidential Information if they exercise the same degree of care (but no less than a reasonable degree of care) as they take to preserve confidentiality for their own similar Information and (ii) confidentiality obligations provided for in any agreement between SEE or any of its Affiliates, or Buyer or any of its Affiliates (including the Transferred Diversey Companies and their Subsidiaries), on the one hand, and any employee of SEE or any of its Affiliates (or, prior to the Closing Date, any of the Transferred Diversey Companies and their Subsidiaries), or Buyer or any of its Affiliates (including, after the Closing Date, the Transferred Diversey Companies and their Subsidiaries), on the other hand, shall remain in full force and effect.

(c)Notwithstanding the foregoing in this Section 5.11, to the extent that a Related Agreement or another Contract or agreement pursuant to which a party hereto is bound provides that certain Confidential Information shall be maintained as confidential on a basis that is more protective of such Confidential Information or for a longer period of time than provided for in this Section 5.11, then the applicable provisions contained in such Related Agreement or other Contract or agreement shall control with respect thereto.

Section 5.12 Employee Matters. Exhibit M is hereby incorporated by reference. References in this Agreement to Section 5.12 shall be deemed references to Section 5.12 of Exhibit M.

Section 5.13 Compliance with WARN Act and Similar Statutes. Buyer agrees that it shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to comply with the WARN Act and any applicable state, local, or foreign plant closing or layoff Law as it relates to any site of employment of the Transferred Employees so as to avoid the imposition of any Losses for SEE or its Affiliates (excluding the Diversey Transferred Companies) under such Laws.

Section 5.14 Mail and Other Communications; Accounts.

(a)After the Closing Date, each of SEE and its Subsidiaries and Buyer and its Subsidiaries may receive mail, packages, or other communications (including electronic communications) properly belonging to the other (or the other’s Subsidiaries). Accordingly, at all times after the Closing Date, and subject to Section 5.11, each of SEE and Buyer authorizes the other and their respective Subsidiaries to receive and open all mail, packages, and other communications received by it and not unambiguously intended for the other party (or its Subsidiaries) or any of the other party’s (or its Subsidiaries’) officers or directors, and to retain the same to the extent that they relate to the Diversey Business (in the case of receipt by Buyer and its Subsidiaries) or the Excluded Businesses (in the case of receipt by SEE and its Subsidiaries), or to the extent that they do not relate to the Diversey Business (in the case of receipt by Buyer and its Subsidiaries) or the Excluded Businesses (in the case of receipt by SEE and its Subsidiaries), the receiving party shall promptly after becoming aware thereof refer, forward, or otherwise deliver such mail, packages, or other communications (or, in case the same relate to both the Diversey Business and the Excluded Businesses, copies thereof) to the other party. The provisions of this Section 5.14 are not intended to, and

61

shall not be deemed to, constitute an authorization by either SEE or Buyer to permit the other to accept service of process on its behalf, and neither party is or shall be deemed to be the agent of the other for purposes of the service of process.

(b)All payments and reimbursements received by SEE or its Subsidiaries in connection with or arising out of the Diversey Business, the Diversey Assets, or the Assumed Liabilities after the Closing shall be held by such Person in trust for the benefit of Buyer, and, immediately upon receipt by such Person of any such payment or reimbursement, such Person shall pay over to Buyer the amount of such payment or reimbursement, without right of set off.

(c)All payments and reimbursements received by Buyer or its Subsidiaries in connection with or arising out of the Excluded Assets, Retained Liabilities, or Excluded Businesses, after the Closing shall be held by such Person in trust for the benefit of SEE, and, immediately upon receipt by such Person of any such payment or reimbursement, such Person shall pay over to SEE the amount of such payment or reimbursement without right of set off.

Section 5.15 Shared Contracts.

(a)Section 5.15(a) of the Seller’s Disclosure Schedule sets forth a list of all of the Shared Contracts. With respect to Shared Contractual Liabilities pursuant to, under, or relating to a given Shared Contract, such Shared Contractual Liabilities shall, unless otherwise allocated pursuant to this Agreement or a Related Agreement, be allocated between SEE and Buyer as follows:

(i)If a Shared Contractual Liability is incurred exclusively in respect of the Diversey Business or the Excluded Businesses, such Shared Contractual Liability shall be allocated entirely to Buyer (in respect of the Diversey Business) or SEE (in respect of the Excluded Businesses);

(ii)If a Shared Contractual Liability cannot be so allocated under clause (i) above, such Shared Contractual Liability shall be allocated to SEE or Buyer, as the case may be, based on the relative proportions of total benefit received (over the term of the Shared Contract remaining as of the Closing Date, measured as of the date of the allocation) by the Diversey Business or the Excluded Business under the relevant Shared Contract. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each of SEE and Buyer shall be responsible for any or all Shared Contractual Liabilities arising from its (or its Subsidiary’s) breach of the relevant Shared Contract to which this Section 5.15 otherwise pertains and SEE will be responsible for all of its (or its Subsidiary’s) breaches of Shared Contracts prior to the Closing, and all of the foregoing breaches for which SEE is responsible shall be Retained Liabilities.

(b)If SEE or any Retained Subsidiary, on the one hand, or Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries (including the Transferred Diversey Companies and their Subsidiaries), on the other hand, receives any benefit or payment which under any Shared Contract was

62

intended for the other, SEE and Buyer will use their respective reasonable best efforts to, and to cause their respective Subsidiaries to, deliver such benefit or payment to the other party.

(c)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the parties agree that the Shared Contracts listed on Section 5.15(c)(i) of the Seller’s Disclosure Schedule shall not be deemed to be Diversey Assets hereunder (the “Excluded Shared Contracts”). Without limiting the foregoing, the parties have determined that it is advisable that certain Shared Contracts, which are identified on Section 5.15(c)(ii) of the Seller’s Disclosure Schedule, be separated into separate Contracts between the appropriate third party and either SEE (or its designee), with respect to the Excluded Businesses, or Buyer (or its designee, with respect to the Diversey Business). From the date hereof until the date that is eighteen (18) months following the Closing Date, the parties hereto shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to enter into or to grant, and to cause each third-party counterparty to each Shared Contract identified on Section 5.15(c)(ii) of the Seller’s Disclosure Schedule to enter into or to grant, any such new agreements or consents as are reasonably necessary to permit SEE and its Affiliates or Buyer and its Affiliates, as applicable, to derive the benefits, and assume the obligations and economic burdens, with respect to each Shared Contract identified on Section 5.15(c)(ii) of the Seller’s Disclosure Schedule on an independent basis following the Closing; provided, however, that neither SEE, Buyer, nor any of their respective Affiliates shall be required to offer or grant any financial or non-financial accommodation in connection therewith. If, on the Closing Date, any such third party agreement or consent is not obtained, SEE and Buyer shall, and SEE shall cause the other Sellers to, cooperate in a mutually acceptable arrangement under which Sellers and their respective Affiliates or Buyer and its Affiliates, as applicable, would in compliance with Law, obtain the appropriate benefits and assume the related obligations and bear the related economic burdens in respect of each Shared Contract identified on Section 5.15(c)(ii) of the Seller’s Disclosure Schedule, including by means of subcontracting, sublicensing, or subleasing arrangements, or enforcement by the party to such Shared Contract for the benefit (and at the expense) of the other party or its Affiliates (as applicable) that is an intended beneficiary thereof pursuant to this Section 5.15.

Section 5.16 Obligations Regarding Non-Assignable Assets and Delayed Diversey Assets.

(a)Unless and until such consent, approval, or amendment described below is no longer required or has been obtained, this Agreement and the Local Purchase Agreements or any certificate or instrument delivered hereunder or thereunder shall not constitute an agreement to assign, license, sublicense, lease, sublease, convey, or transfer at the Closing any Diversey Asset, any Transferred Diversey Company or Subsidiary of a Transferred Diversey Company, or any claim or right or any benefit arising thereunder or resulting therefrom as to which consent or approval from any Person (including consents and approvals of third parties and Governmental Authorities) to assignment, license, sublicense, lease, sublease, conveyance, or transfer thereof or amendment thereof is required but has not been obtained as of the Closing Date (such Asset, a “Delayed Diversey Asset”); provided, however, that, to the extent not inconsistent with the terms of any Delayed Diversey Asset or applicable Law, the parties shall treat Buyer as the owner thereof for Tax purposes as of the Closing Date; provided, further, that, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, neither SEE or any of its Affiliates, on the one hand, or Buyer or any of its Affiliates, on the other hand, shall be required to commence any litigation or offer or pay any money or other consideration or otherwise grant any accommodation (financial or otherwise) to any third party. Except as otherwise provided in Section 5.3 (and subject to Section 5.3 and Section 5.4, which set forth sole obligations of parties with respect to the matters that are the subject thereof), and without limiting the generality of Section 5.3 and Section 5.4, SEE and Buyer shall use, and cause each of their Subsidiaries to use, reasonable best efforts to obtain any such consent, approval, or amendment, including after the Closing Date. Buyer and SEE shall each bear one half of other costs incurred by SEE or Buyer in connection with any such required consent, approval, or amendment. Upon obtaining the requisite consents or approvals, such Delayed Diversey Asset shall be transferred and assigned to Buyer or one of its Subsidiaries (at Buyer’s direction) hereunder without additional consideration therefor.

(b)In the event and to the extent that, prior to the Closing, SEE or any Retained Subsidiary is unable to obtain a consent, approval, or amendment required to assign, license, sublicense, lease, sublease, convey, or transfer any Delayed Diversey Asset to Buyer, then, following the Closing, subject to and without limiting anything set forth in Section 5.5, SEE shall, and shall cause the Retained Subsidiaries to, use reasonable best efforts to (i) continue to hold in trust for Buyer, and to the extent required by the terms applicable to such Delayed Diversey Asset, operate such Delayed Diversey Asset in all material respects in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice and taking into account the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and instructions from Buyer and its Subsidiaries and (ii) cooperate in any arrangement, reasonable and lawful as to SEE and Buyer, designed to provide to Buyer or its Subsidiaries the benefits arising under such Delayed Diversey Asset, including accepting such reasonable direction as Buyer shall request of SEE; provided, however, that the costs and expenses incurred by SEE or its Affiliates in connection with the foregoing shall be borne solely by Buyer. SEE shall, and shall cause the Retained Subsidiaries to, without further consideration therefor, pay and remit to Buyer promptly all monies, rights and other consideration received, net of any reasonable documented out-of-pocket costs

64

payable to a third party, in respect of such performance. From and after the Closing, Buyer shall pay, perform, and discharge fully, promptly when due, all of the obligations of SEE or the Retained Subsidiaries in respect of such performance, and Buyer shall be responsible for all such obligations to the extent they are or would constitute Assumed Liabilities but for the failure to obtain the requisite consent or approval. From and after the Closing Date, SEE on behalf of itself and its Affiliates, authorizes Buyer, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law and the terms of the Delayed Diversey Assets, at Buyer’s expense, to perform all the obligations and receive all the benefits of SEE or its Affiliates under the Delayed Diversey Assets. In any such arrangement contemplated by this Section 5.16(b), Buyer will (A) bear the sole responsibility for completion of the work or provision of goods and services, (B) be solely entitled to all benefits thereof, economic or otherwise, (C) be solely responsible following the Closing for any Assumed Liabilities discharged by SEE or its Subsidiaries (other than the Transferred Diversey Companies) on behalf of Buyer or its post-Closing Affiliates arising after the closing for any warranty or breach thereof, any repurchase, indemnity and service obligations thereof, and (D) promptly reimburse the reasonable costs and expenses of SEE and its Affiliates that constitute Assumed Liabilities or that would constitute Assumed Liabilities but for the failure to obtain the requisite consent or approval.

(c)Without limiting the foregoing, Buyer and its Affiliates shall use reasonable best efforts to obtain any consents, transfers, assignments, assumptions, waivers, or other legal instruments necessary to cause Buyer or its relevant Affiliate to be fully substituted for SEE or any Seller of the Diversey Assets on any Permits, Environmental Permits, financial assurance obligations or instruments, or other environmental approvals or filings associated with the Diversey Assets (and shall obtain any new Permits, Environmental Permits, and other consents, waivers, and approvals necessary to operate the Diversey Business). SEE shall use reasonable best efforts to provide necessary assistance or signatures to Buyer to achieve the purposes of this Section 5.16(c). Until such time as the relevant Permits and Environmental Permits have been transferred to Buyer or its Affiliates, Buyer and Seller agree that Buyer or its relevant Affiliate(s) may, to the extent permitted by Law or the terms of any such Permits or Environmental Permits, operate subject to the terms of all such Permits and Environmental Permits that remain in SEE’s name or the name of another Seller of Diversey Assets and that relate to the Diversey Business, and to the extent not prohibited by Law or the terms of such Permits or Environmental Permits, SEE shall (or shall cause its relevant Affiliates to) on behalf of, and for the benefit of, Buyer operate subject to the terms of such Permits or Environmental Permits as contemplated by Section 5.16(b), so long as Buyer and its Subsidiaries use reasonable best efforts to pursue all consents, transfers, assignments, assumptions, waivers, or other legal instruments necessary for such full substitution; provided that nothing in this Section 5.16(c) shall deem any Seller responsible for any noncompliance with such Permits by Buyer occurring on or after the Closing Date, nor Buyer responsible for any noncompliance with such Permits that occurred prior to the Closing Date.

(d)In the event that at any time or from time to time following Closing Sellers or Buyer (or any of their respective Affiliates), shall receive or otherwise possess any

65

asset that was to be transferred to another Person pursuant to this Agreement or any other Related Agreement (such as an Acquired Diversey Asset) or retained by any other Person pursuant to this Agreement or any of the other Related Agreements (such as an Excluded Asset or payment in respect thereto), such first Person shall promptly transfer, or cause to be transferred, such asset to the Person entitled thereto. Prior to any such transfer, the Person receiving or possessing such asset shall hold such asset in trust for the benefit of such other person and shall not use such asset (or payment in respect of such asset) for any other purpose.

(e)Notwithstanding anything else set forth in this Section 5.16, neither SEE nor any other of its Subsidiaries shall be required to take any action or actions that may, in the good faith reasonable judgment of SEE or such Subsidiary (i) result in a violation of any obligation which SEE or any such Subsidiary has to any third party or (ii) violate applicable Law.

(f)Buyer acknowledges that certain consents and approvals to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement may be required from certain third parties, including those set forth on Section 3.4 of the Seller’s Disclosure Schedule, and that such consents and approvals have not been and may not be obtained. Buyer further agrees that no condition to Buyer’s obligations to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be deemed not satisfied, solely as a result of the failure to obtain any such consent or approval (other than consents required pursuant to Section 7.1(b) and Section 7.3(e)) so long as SEE exercises, and causes its Affiliates to exercise, the required efforts under this Agreement and complies with its obligations hereunder, in each case, to satisfy the requirements of Sections 7.1(a), 7.1(b), 7.3(b), and 7.3(e) (including with respect to the Restructuring Plan and Section 5.31).

(g)Notwithstanding anything in this Section 5.16 or elsewhere in this Agreement to the contrary, if as of the Closing Date the Delayed Diversey Assets in the aggregate represent more than five percent (5%) of the Final Audited EBITDA of the Diversey Business taken as a whole, then a proportionate amount of the Preliminary Purchase Price corresponding to the Delayed Diversey Assets (as determined based upon the purchase price allocation principles set forth in Section 2.5(a)) shall not be paid at Closing (or, in the case of the Final Adjusted Closing Amounts, pursuant to Section 2.4), but instead shall be paid promptly following the transfer of the applicable Delayed Diversey Assets to Buyer or its Affiliates. The parties will cooperate in good faith to give effect to the intent and purpose of this Section 5.16(g).

Section 5.17 Directors and Officers.

(a)If the Closing occurs, Buyer shall cause the Transferred Diversey Companies and their Subsidiaries to take all necessary actions to provide that all rights to indemnification and all limitations on liability existing in favor of any officers, directors or equivalent positions in non-corporate or non-US entities of the Transferred Diversey Companies or their Subsidiaries, as of the Closing Date (collectively, the “Diversey Indemnitees”), as provided in (i) the organizational documents of the Transferred Diversey Companies and their Subsidiaries in effect on the date of this Agreement and

66

(ii) any agreement providing for indemnification by the Transferred Diversey Companies or their Subsidiaries of any of the Diversey Indemnitees in effect on the date of this Agreement to which the Sellers or the Transferred Diversey Companies or their Subsidiaries are a party shall survive the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and continue in full force and effect and be honored by the Transferred Diversey Companies or their Subsidiaries after the Closing.

(b)In the event that the Transferred Diversey Companies or their Subsidiaries or Buyer or any of their respective successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and will not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfers or conveys all or a majority of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, Buyer will, and will cause its Subsidiaries to, ensure proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of the Transferred Diversey Companies or their Subsidiaries or Buyer, as the case may be, shall assume and succeed to the obligations set forth in this Section 5.17.

(c)The obligations of Buyer under this Section 5.17 shall not be terminated or modified in such a manner as to adversely affect any indemnitee to whom this Section 5.17 applies without the express written consent of such affected indemnitee (it being expressly agreed that each indemnitee to whom this Section 5.17 applies shall be an express third party beneficiary of this Section 5.17 entitled to enforce the provisions hereof).

Section 5.18 Buyer’s Financing Activities.

(a)Subject to Section 9.7(b) and the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and until the earlier to occur of the Closing and the Outside Date, Buyer shall and shall cause its controlled Affiliates to use reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions necessary or reasonably advisable to obtain the Financing contemplated by the Financing Commitments on or prior to the Closing Date, including using reasonable best efforts with respect to the following: (i) maintaining in effect the Financing Commitments in accordance with their terms; (ii) negotiating and entering into definitive financing agreements at or prior to the Closing with respect to the Debt Financing (the “Definitive Documentation”) consistent with the terms and conditions contained in the Debt Commitment Letter (and any flex provisions in the Fee Letter) so that such agreements are in effect on a timely basis and, in no event, later than the Closing Date, (iii) satisfying (or obtaining the waiver of) on a timely basis all conditions applicable to Buyer obtaining the Financing contemplated by the Financing Commitments set forth in the Definitive Documentation and the Equity Commitment Letter that are within the control of the Buyer, and (iv) in the event the conditions set forth in the Financing Commitments and this Agreement are satisfied and Buyer is required to consummate the Closing pursuant to Section 2.3, using reasonable best efforts to cause the Debt Financing Sources to consummate the Debt Financing at Closing and in the event the Debt Financing is funded or will be funded concurrently with the Funding of the Equity Financing at the Closing, using reasonable best efforts to cause the Guarantors to fund, directly or indirectly, the Equity Financing. Buyer shall keep SEE reasonably informed of material developments in respect of the financing process. Without limiting the

67

generality of the foregoing, prior to the Closing Buyer shall give SEE reasonably prompt notice (any in any event, within three (3) Business Days) (A) of any material breach or default related to the Financing of which Buyer becomes aware, (B) of the receipt or delivery of any written notice or other written communication, in each case from any Person party to the Debt Commitment Letter (or any Affiliate of such Person) with respect to (1) any actual or potential breach, default, termination, or repudiation by any party to the Debt Commitment Letter with respect to the obligation to fund the Financing or (2) any material dispute or disagreement between or among parties to any of the Financing Commitments with respect to the obligation to fund the Financing or the amount of the Financing to be funded at the Closing (but excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any ordinary course negotiations with respect to the terms of the Financing or Debt Commitment Letter), (C) of the expiration or termination for any reason of the Debt Commitment Letter, the Equity Commitment Letter, or any Definitive Documentation entered into in connection therewith (or if any Person party thereto attempts or purports in writing to terminate the Debt Commitment Letter, the Equity Commitment Letter, or any definitive agreements entered into in connection therewith, whether or not such attempted or purported termination is valid), and (D) if at any time for any reason Buyer believes in good faith that all or any portion of the Financing is unavailable on the terms and conditions contemplated by any of the Financing Commitments. In connection with any notice thereof, Buyer shall promptly provide information reasonably requested by SEE relating to any circumstance referred to in clause (A), (B), (C), or (D) of the immediately preceding sentence (other than information to the extent that the provision thereof would violate or waive any attorney-client or other privilege, constitute attorney work product or violate or contravene any law, rule or regulation, or any obligation of confidentiality). Prior to the Closing, without the prior written consent of SEE, Buyer shall not agree to, or permit, any amendment, modification, supplement, termination, replacement or waiver under, the Equity Commitment Letter, the Debt Commitment Letter, the Fee Letter, the Engagement Letter or Definitive Documentation relating to the Financing; provided that Buyer shall have the right from time to time to amend, supplement, modify, terminate, waive, replace or extend any of its rights under, the Debt Commitment Letter, the Fee Letter, the Engagement Letter or Definitive Documentation with respect to the Debt Financing so long as such amendment, modification, supplement, termination, waiver, extension or replacement would not reasonably be expected to (A) reduce the amounts to be funded under the Debt Financing available to fund the Required Amount on the Closing Date (unless other Financing is increased by a corresponding amount or such amounts are paid from readily available cash on hand) or (B) expand on, or impose new or additional conditions precedent, or amend or modify any conditions precedent in each case which would reasonably be expected to (i) prevent, materially delay, or materially impair the availability of the Debt Financing when required to be funded or the satisfaction of the conditions to obtaining the Debt Financing, in each case on the Closing Date, or (ii) materially adversely affect the ability of Buyer to enforce its rights against the other parties to the Debt Commitment Letter; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, no consent from SEE shall be required for: (1) any amendment, replacement, supplement or modification of the Debt Commitment Letter that is limited to adding lenders, lead arrangers, bookrunners, syndication agents or similar entities that have not executed the Debt Commitment Letter as of the date of this

68

Agreement (including in replacement of a lender), if the addition of such additional parties, individually or in the aggregate, would not prevent, materially delay, or materially impair the availability of the Debt Financing when required to be funded or the satisfaction of the conditions to obtaining the Debt Financing, in each case on the Closing Date, or (2) implementation or exercise of any “flex” provisions provided in the Fee Letter as in effect as of the date hereof. After any amendment, supplement, modification, replacement or waiver of the Debt Commitment Letter, the Fee Letter, or the Definitive Documentation (prior to the Closing) with respect to the Debt Financing in accordance with this Section 5.18(a), Buyer shall promptly deliver to SEE a true and complete copy thereof (and in the case of the Fee Letter, redacted in a manner consistent with Section 4.4). For purposes of this Agreement, the terms “Debt Commitment Letter,” “Engagement Letter” and “Fee Letter” shall include and mean such documents as amended, supplemented, modified, waived, replaced or extended in compliance with this Section 5.18(a) and references to “Debt Financing” or “Financing” shall include and mean the financing contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter or Fee Letter as so amended, supplemented, modified, waived, replaced or extended, as applicable.

(b)If, notwithstanding the use of reasonable best efforts by Buyer to satisfy its obligations under Section 5.18(a), the Debt Financing or the Debt Commitment Letter (or any Definitive Documentation relating thereto) expires or is terminated prior to the earlier to occur of the Closing and the Outside Date, or if any portion of the Debt Financing becomes unavailable, or if Buyer believes that the Debt Financing is reasonably likely to become unavailable, on the terms and conditions contemplated in the Debt Commitment Letter, in whole or in part, for any reason (other than a breach by SEE of this Agreement which prevents or renders impracticable the consummation of the Financing), subject to the terms herein, Buyer shall (i) promptly notify SEE of such expiration, termination or unavailability and the reasons therefor and (ii) promptly, and in any event no later than the Closing, use reasonable best efforts to arrange for alternative debt financing (which alternative debt financing (A) shall be in an amount sufficient, together with the Equity Financing, and cash on hand and any other portion of the Debt Financing that remains available, to pay the Required Amount, (B) shall not include any conditions or other contingencies of such alternative debt financing that are more onerous or expansive than, or in addition to, the conditions set forth in the Debt Financing, and (C) shall have terms (in the aggregate) not materially less favorable to the Buyer than the Debt Commitment Letter in effect as of the date of this Agreement) to replace the Debt Financing contemplated by such expired or terminated commitments or agreements. In the event that any such alternative debt financing is obtained in accordance with this Section 5.18(b), Buyer shall promptly deliver a copy of any new commitment letter and corresponding fee letter (such fee letter to be redacted in a manner consistent with Section 4.4), as applicable, to SEE. Any reference in this Agreement to (1) the “Debt Financing” shall include any such alternative debt financing arranged in compliance herewith, (2) the “Debt Commitment Letter,” “Fee Letter” or “Engagement Letter” shall include the commitment letter with respect to any such alternative debt financing, and (3) “Debt Financing Sources” shall include the sources contemplated to provide any such alternative debt financing. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 5.18(b) or anything else in this Agreement, in no event shall the reasonable best efforts of the Buyer be deemed or construed to require the Buyer to, and the Buyer shall not be required to,

69

(x) pay any fees (in the aggregate) in excess of those contemplated by the Debt Financing as of the date hereof, (y) agree to conditionality or economic terms of the Debt Financing that are less favorable (in the aggregate) than those contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter or Fee Letter (including any flex provisions therein) as of the date hereof, or (z) seek Equity Financing from any source other than those counterparty to, and on the terms set forth in, the Equity Commitment Letter.

(c)Buyer acknowledges and agrees that (subject to the terms and conditions of the Equity Commitment Letter and this Agreement) it shall be responsible for obtaining the Equity Financing and shall, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and satisfaction of the conditions to funding set forth in the Equity Commitment Letter and subject to Section 9.7(b), use reasonable best efforts to take (or cause to be taken) all actions and use reasonable best efforts to do (or cause to be done) all things, necessary, proper, or advisable to obtain the Equity Financing pursuant to and in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and the Equity Commitment Letter, including, subject to Section 9.7(b), using reasonable best efforts to (i) comply with the terms of and maintain in effect the Equity Commitment Letter, (ii) satisfy on a timely basis all conditions in such Equity Commitment Letter to be satisfied by Buyer, (iii) consummate the Equity Financing at or prior to the Closing subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement (including the funding of the Debt Financing concurrently therewith at the Closing) and the Equity Commitment Letter, and (iv) enforce its rights under the Equity Commitment Letter to the extent Buyer is required to fund under the Equity Commitment Letter pursuant to the terms thereof and this Agreement.

(d)Subject in all respects to Section 9.7(b), Buyer acknowledges and agrees that obtaining the financing contemplated by this ‎Section 5.18, or any other financing, is not a condition to the Closing.

(e)Notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement, this Section 5.18 comprises the sole obligations of the Buyer under this Agreement with respect to the Financing.

Section 5.19 Financing Cooperation.

(a)Prior to the Closing, SEE shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries, and shall use reasonable best efforts to cause its and their respective Affiliates and Representatives with appropriate seniority and expertise to, at Buyer’s sole cost and expense (subject to the terms herein), provide to Buyer all cooperation reasonably requested by Buyer that is customary, necessary or reasonably advisable in connection with the arrangement, syndication and consummation of the Debt Financing (including any offering of notes or other debt securities contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter), including: (i) participation in a reasonable number of meetings (including customary one-on-one meetings), presentations, road shows, due diligence sessions, drafting sessions, and sessions with potential lenders under the Debt Financing and rating agencies, in each case, upon reasonable advance notice and at mutually agreeable dates and times, (ii) reasonably cooperating with the marketing and due diligence efforts of the Buyer and the

(b)Subject to the limitations set forth in Section 8.4, Buyer shall indemnify and hold harmless SEE, its Subsidiaries, and its and their respective Representatives from and against any and all Liabilities, Losses, damages, claims, costs or expenses (including attorneys’ fees), interest, awards, judgments, penalties and amounts paid in settlement suffered or incurred by any of them in connection with the Financing or any alternative financing and any information used in connection therewith except to the extent arising from (i) information furnished in writing by or on behalf of SEE, its Affiliates and its

72

Subsidiaries, including financial statements, or (ii) the willful misconduct or gross negligence of SEE, its Affiliates or its Subsidiaries; provided that, except as otherwise provided in this Section 5.19, any amounts owed by Buyer pursuant to this Section 5.19(b) shall only be payable at Closing or upon the termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms. All non-public or other confidential information provided by SEE, its Affiliates, and their respective Representatives pursuant to this Agreement shall be kept confidential in accordance with Section 5.11; provided, however, that Buyer and its Affiliates shall be permitted to disclose such information to any financing sources or prospective financing sources that are or may become parties to the Debt Financing in accordance with the Confidentiality Agreement, so long as such financing sources or potential financing sources agree to customary confidentiality arrangements in a form approved by SEE (provided that SEE acknowledges that the Debt Commitment Letter, Engagement Letter and Fee Letter, dated as of the date hereof, and the Confidentiality Agreement are in approved form), and as is reasonably necessary and customary to consummate the Debt Financing (including in connection with any road shows, lender or investor meetings, rating agency meetings or other similar marketing efforts).

(c)SEE hereby consents to the use of all logos of the Transferred Diversey Companies and their Subsidiaries in connection with the Financing so long as such logos (i) are used solely in a manner that is not intended to or likely to harm, disparage, or otherwise adversely affect in any material respect SEE or any of its Subsidiaries or the reputation or goodwill of SEE or any of its Subsidiaries and (ii) are used solely in connection with a description of the Transferred Diversey Companies and their Subsidiaries, the Diversey Business, or the Sale.

(d)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the condition set forth in Section 7.3(b) of this Agreement, as it applies to SEE’s obligations under this Section 5.19, shall be deemed satisfied unless the Buyer has not obtained the Debt Financing on the terms set forth in the Debt Commitment Letter

Section 5.20 Schedule Updates. SEE will, from time to time prior to the Closing Date, by written notice to Buyer, supplement the Seller’s Disclosure Schedule (any such supplement, a “Schedule Update”) with respect to any fact, event, development, occurrence, or condition (including any Action challenging the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Related Agreements) that would, in the absence of such Schedule Update, reasonably be expected to cause a material breach of or material inaccuracy in any of the representations or warranties set forth in Article III or a failure of any condition set forth in Article VII at the Closing. If, as a result of the delivery of such Schedule Update, Buyer has the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(d) but Buyer does not elect so to terminate this Agreement thereunder within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of such Schedule Update, and if the Closing then occurs, then Buyer shall be deemed to have irrevocably waived any right to terminate this Agreement with respect to the matters specifically set forth in such Schedule Update. For purposes of determining whether SEE is subject to any claim for indemnification under Article VI and Section 8.4 or whether any condition to Closing is satisfied, no updated information provided to Buyer in accordance with this Section 5.20 shall be deemed to cure the breach or failure to be true of any representation or warranty or covenant or agreement.

73

To the extent there is a conflict between any of the provisions of this Agreement and any Local Purchase Agreements, the provisions of this Agreement shall control with respect to the subject matter thereof.

(b)After the Closing, SEE and Buyer shall cause their respective Subsidiaries that are parties to the Related Agreements to comply with such respective Subsidiaries’ obligations thereunder; provided that the foregoing obligations are subject to Section 5.16. Each of SEE and Buyer further agrees to unconditionally guarantee its Subsidiaries’ obligations under the Local Purchase Agreements. SEE and Buyer agree that such Local Purchase Agreements shall not (i) expand or limit the rights and obligations of the Sellers, on the one hand, or Buyer and its applicable Subsidiaries party thereto, on the other hand, beyond those provided for in this Agreement or (ii) provide for any additional rights or obligations of the Sellers, Buyer, or the applicable Subsidiaries of Buyer party thereto that are not provided for in this Agreement. SEE and Buyer shall cooperate in the preparation of such Local Purchase Agreements, which shall be prepared substantially in the forms attached hereto as Exhibit F, with only such changes as necessary to comply with applicable Law of such foreign jurisdiction. To the extent there is a conflict between any of the provisions of this Agreement and any Local Purchase Agreement, SEE and Buyer acknowledge and agree that the provisions of this Agreement shall control and that, if necessary, SEE and Buyer shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, deliver such additional instruments as may be necessary to accomplish the foregoing.

Section 5.22[Reserved].

Section 5.23 Insurance.

(a)From and after the Closing Date, the Transferred Diversey Companies and their Subsidiaries shall cease to be insured by the Sellers or their respective Affiliates’ insurance policies or by any of their self-insured programs, and neither Buyer nor its Subsidiaries shall have any access, right, title, or interest to or in any such insurance policies (including all claims and rights to make claims and all rights to proceeds) to cover any assets of the Transferred Diversey Companies or their Subsidiaries or any Liability arising from the ownership of the Acquired Diversey Assets and the operation of the Diversey Business on or after the Closing. SEE or the Sellers or any of their respective Affiliates may amend, to become effective at the Closing, any insurance policies in the manner SEE deems appropriate to give effect to this Section 5.23.

(b)From and after the Closing, Buyer shall be solely responsible for securing, maintaining, and paying for all insurance it considers appropriate for its operation of the Transferred Diversey Companies and their Subsidiaries and the Diversey Business and its ownership of the Acquired Diversey Assets. Buyer shall take all actions necessary (at its

74

sole cost and expense) to procure on behalf of the Transferred Diversey Companies any such insurance policies, which policies shall be in effect as of the Closing and which shall include a comprehensive insurance program that provides limits comparable to those in place prior to the transaction for the Transferred Diversey Companies and that covers all pre-Closing occurrences, Liabilities, and claims that have not yet been filed by the Transferred Diversey Companies, including all potential claims, of the Transferred Diversey Companies under any of the Sellers’ insurance policies. Such policies procured by Buyer shall be primary to any other insurance, whether valid or collectable. From and after the Closing, none of the Transferred Diversey Companies, Buyer, or any of their respective Affiliates shall be entitled to any recovery whatsoever under any part of any of the Sellers’ insurance policies with respect to any Transferred Diversey Companies or otherwise, and the Transferred Diversey Companies shall be obligated to pay all amounts arising from or related to any claims filed on or after the Closing Date, the insurance thereof (regardless of whether the event giving rise to such claims occurred before or after the Closing), and all amounts in respect of the insurance policies procured by Buyer for them, including in each case, premiums, deductibles, self-insured retentions, claims adjusting expenses, loss conversion factor expenses, retroactive premium adjustments, audits, collateral requirements (including surety bonds and collateral) and associated costs, uninsured losses, security deposits, legal fees, indemnity benefits, and any other costs or expenses that become due and payable in respect thereof. Buyer further covenants and agrees not to seek to assert or to exercise any rights or claims of any Transferred Diversey Company or any Subsidiary of a Transferred Diversey Company or the Diversey Business under or in respect of any past or present insurance policy under which any Transferred Diversey Company or Affiliate thereof or the Diversey Business is a named insured. From and after the Closing, Buyer and the Transferred Diversey Companies shall indemnify and hold harmless the Sellers and their respective Affiliates for any Losses they suffer or incur in connection with any claims by or on behalf of any Transferred Diversey Companies under any of the Sellers’ insurance policies.

(c)Notwithstanding the above, with respect to workers compensation policies or any “occurrence basis” insurance policies for which Buyer cannot reasonably obtain insurance coverage from and after the Closing, including any deductibles or self-insured retentions under such policies, in connection with the Transferred Diversey Companies or Diversey Assets, in respect of events occurring prior to and including the Closing Date, including claims that might be brought after the Closing but arising from events that occurred prior to Closing, SEE shall use reasonable best efforts to retain and administer all such claims and claims payments, including assisting Buyer or its Subsidiaries (at Buyer’s expense) in asserting claims for any loss, liability or damage suffered in connection with matters covered by such policies; provided that Buyer shall reimburse SEE for any claims actually paid under any such deductible or self-insured retention or other out-of-pocket costs and for the increase in the cost of insurance premiums directly related to such claims, all such reimbursement payments to be made within thirty (30) days of SEE’s request (but in any event not more than once each fiscal quarter). The terms of such policies, including any deductibles and self-insured retentions, shall remain unaffected by the terms of this Agreement. SEE shall use reasonable best efforts to obtain recoveries under such policies and shall remit to Buyer any recoveries in respect of such claims. Buyer shall cooperate with SEE relative to all claim negotiation and

75

settlement opportunities. In the event that any Action is required for coverage to be asserted against any insurer or a claim to be perfected, Buyer shall control such actions and do so at Buyer’s sole expense. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 5.23 shall not limit or modify SEE’s indemnification obligations pursuant to Article VI or Article VIII.

(d)For the avoidance of doubt, the insurance policies placed, and the claims that have occurred prior to the acquisition of Diversey, Inc. by SEE (or its Affiliates) on October 3, 2011, shall be the sole responsibility of Buyer.

Section 5.24 Retransfer of Assets. If either party reasonably determines after the Closing that (a) any of the Transferred Diversey Companies or their Subsidiaries owns any Excluded Assets, or that any Assets have been transferred by the Diversey Asset Sellers to the Diversey Asset Buyers that are not Diversey Assets, then Buyer shall transfer, assign, and convey, or shall cause any such Asset to be transferred, assigned, and conveyed, to SEE or any of its Affiliates or other designees designated by SEE without any consideration therefor; or (b) SEE or any of the Retained Subsidiaries owns any Acquired Diversey Assets, or that any Assets that are Diversey Assets have not been transferred by the Diversey Asset Sellers to the Diversey Asset Buyers, then SEE shall transfer, assign, and convey, or shall cause any such Asset to be transferred, assigned, and conveyed, to Buyer or any of its Affiliates or other designees designated by Buyer without any consideration therefor. In each case of clause (a) and (b), any transfer of an Asset that occurs prior to the Buyer’s delivery of the Preliminary Adjustment Statement to SEE shall be deemed to have occurred at Closing for purposes of calculating Closing Cash, Closing Net Working Capital, Closing Indebtedness, and Closing Seller Expenses.

Section 5.25 Buyer Substitution. SEE and Buyer shall cooperate in good faith and use reasonable best efforts to cause an appropriate Transferred Diversey Company prior to Closing to be fully substituted for the applicable Seller or Affiliate or Subsidiary thereof with respect to any order, decree, judgment, settlement agreement, or Action with respect to any Assumed Liability in effect as of the Closing. To the extent required by Law, SEE and Buyer shall use reasonable best efforts to inform the applicable Person, including Governmental Authorities, about its assumption of the Assumed Liability associated with the matters covered by this Section 5.25 and shall request that such Person direct all communications, requirements, notifications, and official letters related to such matters to the appropriate Transferred Diversey Company. The parties shall (and shall cause its applicable Subsidiaries and Affiliates to) use reasonable best efforts to provide necessary assistance or signatures to the other to achieve the purposes of this Section 5.25. Until such time as Buyer and the applicable Sellers or Affiliates or Subsidiaries thereof complete the substitutions outlined above, Buyer shall use reasonable best efforts to comply with the terms and conditions of all such orders, decrees, judgments, and Actions that remain in the name of any of the Sellers or their applicable Subsidiaries or Affiliates. The costs of implementing this Section 5.25 shall be borne one half by Buyer and one half by SEE.

Section 5.26 Financial Statements Deliveries. No later than May 31, 2017, SEE shall make available to Buyer the Audited Financial Statements, which shall present fairly in all material respects the financial condition and the results of operations of the Diversey Business as of such dates and for such periods in accordance with GAAP (except as may be set forth in such Audited Financial Statements) and which shall be qualified by the fact that the Diversey

76

Business was not operated as a separate “stand alone” entity within SEE. No later than 60 days following the end of each fiscal quarter commencing following the date hereof and ending prior to the Closing Date, SEE shall make available to Buyer unaudited combined financial statements of the Diversey Business for such fiscal quarter (or, in the case of the fiscal quarter in which the Closing occurs, the portion of such fiscal quarter), together with comparable periods for 2016 (and, in the case of the fiscal quarter in which the Closing occurs, the entire period through the end of the comparable fiscal quarter in 2016 and, in the case of each fiscal quarter in fiscal 2017 subsequent to the Closing, the comparable fiscal quarter in 2016), in each case, together with the notes thereto, which shall present fairly in all material respects the financial condition and the results of operations of the Diversey Business as of such dates and for such periods in accordance with GAAP (except as may be set forth in such financial statements) and which shall be qualified by the fact that the Diversey Business was not operated as a separate “stand alone” entity within SEE; provided, however, that with respect to the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2017, such information shall not be required to be provided prior to the date that is ninety (90) days following the end of such fiscal quarter. Within one hundred twenty (120) days of the Closing, SEE shall make available to Buyer the audited combined financial statements of the Diversey Business for and as of the period from January 1, 2017, through the Closing (the “Stub Year Audited Financial Statements”), which shall present fairly in all material respects the financial condition and the results of operations of the Diversey Business as of such dates and for such periods in accordance with GAAP (except as may be set forth in such Stub Year Audited Financial Statements) and which shall be qualified by the fact that the Diversey Business was not operated as a separate “stand alone” entity within SEE. Buyer shall bear all costs of any deliveries required under this Section 5.26 to be made after the Closing, including, for the avoidance of doubt, all fees and expenses with respect to Stub Year Audited Financial Statements. This Section 5.26 shall not limit or modify the provisions or the rights or obligations of the parties under Section 5.19.

Section 5.27 Resignations. To the extent requested in writing by Buyer at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the Closing Date (or such later date prior to Closing as such actions can be accomplished without undue burden on SEE or its Subsidiaries), SEE shall cause each director (or other member of the appropriate governing body) of the Transferred Diversey Companies and their Subsidiaries for which resignation is requested to execute and deliver a customary letter effecting his resignation as a director (or other member of the appropriate governing body), but not in any other capacity, of such Transferred Diversey Company or such Subsidiaries thereof, as the case may be, effective as of, the Closing.

Section 5.28 No Solicitation.

Section 6.2 Closing of Current Taxable Year, Etc.

(a)Closing of Taxable Year. To the extent required or permitted by Law (including pursuant to Treasury Regulations promulgated under Section 1502 of the Code), the parties shall elect to close any taxable year of any of the Transferred Diversey Companies and their Subsidiaries as of the end of the Closing Date.

(b)Straddle Periods. In the case of any taxable period that includes (but does not end on) the Closing Date (a “Straddle Period”), the portion of Taxes (or any Tax refund and amount credited against any Tax) that are allocable to the portion of the Straddle Period ending at the end of the Closing Date will be: (i) in the case of Taxes imposed on a periodic basis without regard to income, gross receipts, withholding, payroll or sales, deemed to be the amount of such Taxes (or Tax refund or amount credited against Tax) for the entire Straddle Period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of calendar days in the portion of such Straddle Period ending at the end of the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of calendar days in the entire Straddle Period and (ii) in the case of all other Taxes, determined as though the taxable year of the Transferred Diversey Companies and each of their Subsidiaries terminated at the end of the Closing Date and applying the Law in effect in each relevant jurisdiction at the time of such deemed termination. The amount of any refunds, credits, or offsets of Taxes with respect to the Diversey Business for any Straddle Period shall be apportioned between the Pre-Closing Tax Period and the Post-Closing Tax Period pursuant to the same methodology set forth in the preceding sentence.

Section 6.3 Tax Returns.

(a)Except as provided in Section 6.5 hereof, SEE shall, at its sole cost and expense, prepare, or cause to be prepared in accordance with applicable Law, (i) all Joint Returns due after the Closing Date and (ii) any other Income Tax Return of the Transferred Diversey Companies and any of their Subsidiaries for taxable periods ending on or before the Closing Date the due date of which (taking into account extensions) is after the Closing Date and each such Income Tax Return and, to the extent related to the Diversey Business, Joint Return shall be prepared in a manner consistent with the past practice of SEE and its Subsidiaries and their Affiliates unless otherwise required by applicable Law. SEE shall file, or cause to be filed, when due, all such Tax Returns described in this Section 6.3(a); provided, however, that, to the extent applicable Law provides that SEE is not authorized to file any such Income Tax Return, Buyer shall file, or cause to be filed, when due, such Income Tax Return as prepared by SEE. Buyer shall and shall cause its Affiliates to cooperate with, and take any action reasonably requested by, SEE with respect to the preparation and filing of such Tax Returns. The immediately preceding sentence shall in no way be construed as limiting or otherwise modifying the rights and obligations of the parties under Section 6.7 hereof.

(b)Except as provided in Section 6.5 hereof, Buyer shall, at its sole cost and expense, prepare, or cause to be prepared in accordance with applicable Law and file or cause to be filed, when due, all Tax Returns with respect to the Transferred Diversey Companies and their Subsidiaries or the Diversey Business in each case, that relate to a

85

Pre-Closing Tax Period (including a Straddle Period) and the due date of which (taking into account extensions) is after the Closing Date, required to be filed, other than those described in Section 6.3(a) hereof, and each such Tax Return shall be prepared in a manner consistent with the past practice of SEE and its Subsidiaries and their Affiliates; provided, however, to the extent Buyer provides written notice to SEE that it has determined, after a good faith inquiry with its tax advisor, that any past practice of SEE or its Subsidiaries or their Affiliates has no reasonable basis under applicable Law, Buyer shall not be required to file any such Tax Return consistent with such past practice unless SEE provides written advice upon which Buyer may rely from a nationally recognized law or accounting firm that there is at least a reasonable basis for such past practice, in which case Buyer shall file any such Tax Return consistent with such past practice.

(c)In the case of any Tax Return described in Section 6.3(a), SEE shall deliver to Buyer for its review and approval a draft of such Tax Return or, in the case of a Joint Return, a pro forma draft of such Joint Return setting forth such portions of such Joint Return that relate solely to the Transferred Diversey Companies or their Subsidiaries (and any schedules, work papers, and other documentation relevant to the preparation of such Tax Return or pro forma draft of such Tax Return) no later than forty-five (45) days prior to the due date for such Tax Return (including applicable extensions). SEE shall consider any reasonable changes proposed by Buyer in good faith, and SEE and Buyer shall cooperate to resolve any disagreements. With respect to any Joint Return, SEE shall not file such Joint Return until the earlier of (i) the receipt of written notice from Buyer indicating Buyer’s consent thereto (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed) or (ii) one (1) day prior to such Joint Return’s due date (including applicable extensions). Buyer shall remit (or cause to be remitted) to SEE any Taxes shown as due with respect to such pro forma Joint Return for which Buyer, any of the Transferred Diversey Companies or their Subsidiaries, or any of their respective Affiliates is required to indemnify any of the SEE Indemnified Parties pursuant to this Agreement no later than two (2) days before the due date for the payment of such Taxes (including applicable extensions). Notwithstanding anything in this Section 6.3(c) to the contrary, the filing of any Tax Return described in this Section 6.3(c) shall not limit or otherwise modify the obligations of any party pursuant to Section 6.1.

(d)In the case of any Tax Return described in Section 6.3(b), Buyer shall deliver to SEE for its review and approval a draft of such Tax Return (and any schedules, work papers, and other documentation relevant to the preparation of such Tax Return) no later than forty-five (45) days prior to the due date for such Tax Return (if such Tax Return is an Income Tax Return) and as soon as practical (if such Tax Return is not an Income Tax Return), in each case including applicable extensions. Buyer shall consider any reasonable changes proposed by SEE in good faith, and Buyer and SEE shall cooperate to resolve any disagreements.

(e)Buyer shall not file such Tax Return until the earlier of (i) the receipt of written notice from SEE indicating SEE’s consent thereto (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed) or (ii) one (1) day prior to such Tax Return’s due date (including applicable extensions). SEE shall remit (or cause to be remitted) to Buyer any Taxes shown as due with respect such Tax Return for which SEE

86

is required to indemnify any of the Buyer Indemnified Parties pursuant to this Agreement no later than two (2) days before the due date for the payment of such Taxes (including applicable extensions). Notwithstanding anything in this Section 6.3(d) to the contrary, the filing of any Tax Return described in this Section 6.3(d) shall not limit or otherwise modify the obligations of any party pursuant to Section 6.1.

(f)In the case of any Transferred Diversey Company that is part of an “affiliated group” within the meaning of Section 1504 of the Code the common parent of which group is (i) SEE or (ii) any affiliate of SEE that is not a Transferred Diversey Company or a Subsidiary of a Transferred Diversey Company, all items accruing on or before the Closing with respect to any such Transferred Diversey Company (including any deferred items triggered under Treasury Regulations Section 1.1502-13 and any excess loss account taken into income under Treasury Regulations Section 1.1502-19) shall be allocated to the taxable period ending on the Closing Date pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.1502-76(b)(1)(ii)(A)(1) (and, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not be allocated to any taxable period (or portion thereof) beginning after the Closing Date pursuant to the “next day” rule under Treasury Regulations Section 1.1502-76(b)(1)(ii)(B) or allocated pursuant to the ratable allocation method under Treasury Regulations Section 1.1502-76(b)(2)(ii) or any similar Law).

(g)If any of the Diversey Shares are “loss shares” for purposes of Treasury Regulations Section 1.1502-36 after taking into account (1) the effects of all applicable rules of law, including any adjustments under Treasury Regulations Section 1.1502-36(b), (c), or (d)(5)(iii) and (2) the payment of the Purchase Price, any post-closing payments treated as adjustments to the Purchase Price, and any other adjustments resulting from a final determination of the application of Treasury Regulations Section 1.1502-36, SEE shall make, or cause to be made, an election under Treasury Regulations Section 1.1502-36(d)(6) to reduce the basis of such Diversey Shares by an amount equal to 100% of the applicable Transferred Diversey Company’s attribute reduction amount, as tentatively computed under Treasury Regulations Section 1.1502-36(d)(3) without regard to such election If SEE is required pursuant to this Section 6.3(f) to make such an election, SEE shall deliver to Buyer for Buyer’s review a copy of any election described in this Section 6.3(f) forty-five (45) days prior to the due date of the U.S. federal Joint Return for the year in which such election is made. SEE shall consider in good faith any reasonable changes proposed by Buyer in good faith.

Section 6.4 Contest Provisions.

(a)Notification of Contests. SEE and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and Buyer and its Affiliates, on the other hand (the “Recipient”), shall notify the other party in writing within ten (10) Business Days of receipt by the Recipient of written notice of any pending or threatened audits, adjustments, assessments, examinations or proceedings (whether judicial or administrative) which may affect the liability for Taxes of such other party or may give rise to an indemnification payment under Section 6.1 by such other party (a “Tax Audit”); provided that failure to give such notice to the other party (or the provision of any such notice that is not in sufficient detail to notify the other party of the nature of the Tax Audit) shall not void any indemnification obligation hereunder for any

87

Taxes arising in connection with such Tax Audit except to the extent such failure to give notice materially adversely affects the other party’s right to participate in and contest the Tax Audit.

(b)Control of Tax Audits.

(i)SEE’s Items. Solely to the extent a Tax Audit relates to any Taxes for which SEE is liable hereunder, SEE shall at its sole expense control the defense and settlement of such Tax Audit (including selection of counsel, determining whether to pursue or forego any and all administrative appeals, proceedings (whether judicial or administrative), hearings and conferences with any Tax Authority with respect thereto, and may, after any good faith consultation with Buyer pursuant to Section 6.4(b)(iv) hereof, either pay the Tax claimed and sue for a refund where applicable Law permits such refund suits or contest such Tax Audit in any permissible manner). In no case shall Buyer, the Transferred Diversey Companies or their Subsidiaries or any of their Affiliates settle or otherwise compromise any Tax Audit referred to in the preceding sentence without SEE’s prior written consent, and in no case shall SEE or any of its Affiliates settle or otherwise compromise any Tax Audit referred to in the preceding sentence without the Buyer’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) if such settlement would reasonably be expected to materially adversely affect Buyer or any of its Affiliates in a Post-Closing Tax Period.

(ii)Buyer’s Items. Solely to the extent a Tax Audit relates to any Taxes for which Buyer is liable hereunder, Buyer shall at its sole expense control the defense and settlement of such Tax Audit (including selection of counsel, determining whether to pursue or forego any and all administrative appeals, proceedings (whether judicial or administrative), hearings and conferences with any Tax Authority with respect thereto, and may, after any good faith consultation with SEE pursuant to Section 6.4(b)(iv) hereof, either pay the Tax claimed and sue for a refund where applicable Law permits such refund suits or contest such Tax Audit in any permissible manner). In no case shall SEE or any of its Affiliates settle or otherwise compromise any Tax Audit referred to in the preceding sentence without Buyer’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned).

(iii)Combined and Mixed Items. If a Tax Audit relates to Taxes for which both SEE and Buyer are liable hereunder, to the extent possible such Tax Items will be distinguished and each party will control the defense and settlement of those Taxes for which it is so liable. If such Tax Audit relates to any Straddle Period and any Tax Item cannot be identified as being a liability of only one party or cannot be separated from a Tax Item for which the other party is liable, SEE shall control the defense and settlement of such Tax Audit.

(iv)Participation Rights. Any party who does not control a Tax Audit under this Section 6.4(b) for which such party may be obligated to indemnify the

88

other party under this Article VI may observe, at its own expense, in the defense of such Tax Audit and employ counsel of its choice at its expense and the party controlling such Tax Audit under this Section 6.4(b) shall in good faith keep such party informed with respect to such Tax Audit and, upon the reasonable request of such party, shall consult with such party from time to time regarding the conduct of such Tax Audit. Such non-controlling party shall be permitted to (A) review and provide comments with respect to any documents to be submitted to a Tax Authority in connection with such Tax Audit, which comments such controlling party shall consider in good faith, and (B) attend any meeting with a Tax Authority in connection with such Tax Audit (including any conferences and telephonic calls) as an observer (i.e., such non-controlling party shall not be permitted to directly address such Tax Authority with respect to any matters relating directly or indirectly to such Tax Audit).

Section 6.5 Transfer Taxes. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, all Tax Returns with respect to any excise, sales, use, transfer (including real property transfer), stamp, documentary, filing, recordation and other similar taxes arising directly or indirectly from the entry into this Agreement or the Closing (including, for the avoidance of doubt, and except as otherwise provided in this Section 6.5, those arising pursuant to the Local Purchase Agreements or from the indirect transfer of any Indirect Transfer Entity) or the France Closing or the Dutch Closing (“Transfer Taxes”) shall be timely filed by the party responsible for such filing under applicable Law (provided that the parties hereto shall cooperate in the preparation and filing of any Tax Returns with respect to the Transfer Taxes, including by promptly supplying any information in their possession that is reasonably necessary for the preparation and timely filing of such Tax Returns or the payment of any amounts pursuant to this Section 6.5) and all such Transfer Taxes (and all reasonable out-of-pocket costs for the preparation of such Tax Returns) shall be borne one-half by Buyer and one-half by SEE; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, this Section 6.5 shall not apply to any Income Taxes or gains Taxes resulting from the indirect transfer of any Indirect Transfer Entity or any Transfer Taxes that are Restructuring Plan Liabilities, which are Retained Liabilities.

Section 6.6 Certain Post-Closing Settlement Payments and Post-Closing Actions.

(a)Buyer’s Claiming, Receiving or Using of Refunds and Overpayments. Except with respect to any Tax refunds arising from the carryback of any Tax loss, deduction or credit arising in a period (or portion thereof) beginning after the Closing Date, and subject to Section 6.6(b), if Buyer or any of its Affiliates (i) receives any refund of Tax or (ii) applies any overpayment of Taxes which, in each case, was not included in the calculation of Net Working Capital of the Diversey Business and is the subject of indemnification by SEE pursuant to this Agreement, Buyer shall transfer, or cause to be transferred, to SEE, within twenty (20) days of receipt or application, the entire amount of the refund or overpayment (including interest included therein), net of any Tax (including withholding Tax) payable by the party entitled to receive such refund or applying such overpayment, with respect to its receipt or application thereof (including with respect to any interest included in such refund or overpayment) and net of all reasonable out-of-pocket costs associated with collecting such amounts, received or applied by Buyer or any of its Affiliates. Buyer agrees to notify SEE promptly following

89

the receipt of any such refund or application of any such overpayment. In the event that Buyer or any of its Affiliates is required to repay any such refund to any Tax Authority or loses the benefit of any applied overpayment in each case due to the successful challenge of such refund or applied overpayment by such Tax Authority, SEE or its Affiliates, as applicable, shall promptly repay to Buyer its Affiliates, as applicable, an amount equal to such refund or applied overpayment upon written request therefor.

(b)Pre-Closing Tax Returns. Unless otherwise required or in connection with the settlement of a Tax Audit, (i) none of Buyer, the Transferred Diversey Companies or their Subsidiaries, or any of their respective Affiliates shall amend or modify (or file a refund claim with respect to) any Tax Return with respect to the Acquired Diversey Assets or the Transferred Diversey Companies or any of their Subsidiaries with respect to any Pre-Closing Tax Period without the prior written consent of SEE (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed) and (ii) none of SEE or its Affiliates shall amend or modify any Joint Return with respect to the Acquired Diversey Assets or the Transferred Diversey Companies or any of their Subsidiaries for a Pre-Closing Tax Period to the extent such action would reasonably be expected to adversely affect Buyer, the Transferred Diversey Companies or their Subsidiaries, or any of their respective Affiliates with respect to a taxable period (or portion thereof) beginning after the Closing Date, without the prior written consent of Buyer (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed).

(c)Post-Closing Actions. After the Closing:

(i)none of Buyer, the Transferred Diversey Companies or their Subsidiaries, or any of their respective Affiliates shall, without the prior written consent of SEE (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), shall, with respect to the Diversey Business, the Acquired Diversey Assets, any Transferred Diversey Company or any of their Subsidiaries, take any action that results in the acceleration of any income or gain to any Pre-Closing Tax Period or deferral of any loss, deduction or credit from any Pre-Closing Tax Period to any Post-Closing Tax Period (including by making, effecting, or revoking any election) that would reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect SEE or any of its Subsidiaries or their respective Affiliates or the Diversey Business in any Pre-Closing Tax Period with respect to Taxes.

(ii)none of SEE or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, without the prior written consent of Buyer (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), shall, with respect to the Diversey Business, the Acquired Diversey Assets, any Transferred Diversey Company or any of their Subsidiaries, take any action that results in the deferral of any income or gain to any Post-Closing Tax Period or acceleration of any loss, deduction or credit from any Post-Closing Period to any Pre-Closing Tax Period (including by making, effecting, or revoking any election) that would reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect Buyer or any of its respective Affiliates or the Diversey Business in any Post-Closing Tax Period with respect to Taxes.

90

Section 6.7 Mutual Cooperation. SEE and Buyer shall, and each shall cause its Affiliates to, cooperate with each other in paying any Taxes, filing any Tax Return and conducting any Tax Audit (including any judicial or administrative proceeding) contemplated by this Agreement and, except as set forth to the contrary in this Agreement, take such action as the other party may reasonably request including the following: (a) provide data for the preparation of any Tax Return, including schedules, and make any elections that reasonably may be required by the other party; (b) provide required documents and data and cooperate in any Tax Audit or investigation of any Tax Return and execute appropriate powers of attorney in favor of the other party and/or its agents; (c) file protests or otherwise contest any proposed or asserted Tax deficiencies, including filing petitions for redetermination or prosecuting actions for refund in any court, and pursuing the appeal of any such actions; (d) execute Tax Returns or other documents reasonably required by the other party; (e) take any of the actions of the type described in Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-77(a), which describes the scope of the agency of the common parent of a group of affiliated corporations; (f) provide complete access to, and comply with reasonable requests for copies of, all Tax Returns, books and records, data, documents, work papers, materials and other information relating to the Taxes of the Transferred Diversey Companies or their Subsidiaries for any taxable period; (g) make reasonably available to each other, its officers, directors, employees and agents for any fact finding, consultation and discussions related to the preparation and filing of any Tax Return, the conduct of any Tax Audit (including any judicial or administrative proceeding), and any other matter with respect to Taxes; (h) execute such powers of attorney as are reasonably requested and required by SEE or any of SEE’s Affiliates or Buyer or any of Buyer’s Affiliates on behalf of, as the case may be, Buyer or any of Buyer’s Affiliates or SEE or any of SEE’s Affiliates to enable the requesting party to represent the other party in a Tax Audit involving a Tax for which the requesting party is liable under applicable Law; and (i) take any action reasonably necessary to obtain and provide any receipts or other proof of payment form any Tax Authority with respect to Taxes that are the subject of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, neither SEE nor any of its Affiliates shall be required to disclose to Buyer or any of its Affiliates any consolidated, combined, unitary, or other similar Tax Return of which SEE or its Affiliates is the common parent (other than a Transferred Diversey Company) or any information related to Taxes or Tax Returns other than information relating solely to the Transferred Diversey Companies and the Acquired Diversey Assets. SEE and Buyer hereby agree to reimburse each other for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the other in connection with satisfying its obligations under this Section 6.7. Prior to Closing, the parties will negotiate in good faith to reach agreement with respect to the surrender of group relief attributable to a tax period (or portion thereof) ending on or before the Closing Date of any UK resident Transferred Diversey Company or any UK resident Subsidiary of a Transferred Diversey Company.

Section 6.8 Maintenance of Books and Records. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, until the applicable statute of limitation (including periods of waiver) has expired for any Tax Return filed or required to be filed covering the periods up to and including the Closing Date (including any Straddle Periods), Buyer and its Affiliates shall retain all Tax work papers and related materials in its possession and under its control that were used in the preparation of any such Tax Return. Buyer will notify SEE in accordance with Section 9.5, with an additional copy sent to the attention of the Vice President of SEE’s tax department (or an appropriate successor), sixty (60) days prior to disposing of any Tax records relating to such taxable periods and will deliver to SEE any such records requested by SEE.

91

Section 6.9 Section 338(g) Election. Buyer shall not make (or permit to be made) any election under Section 338(g) of the Code (or any comparable applicable provision of state, local or foreign Tax law) with respect to the Transferred Diversey Companies or their Subsidiaries without the prior written consent of SEE, which consent shall be exercised in the sole discretion of SEE and can be withheld for any reason or no reason (any such entity with respect to which SEE’s consent has been given, a “338 Entity”).

Section 6.10 Additional Post-Closing Tax Covenant. With respect to any of the Transferred Diversey Companies or any of their respective Subsidiaries, that, as of immediately prior to the Closing, is a “controlled foreign corporation” within the meaning of Section 957(a) of the Code (the “Prior CFCs”), through the end of any taxable period of such entity that includes the Closing Date, without the prior written consent of SEE (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), Buyer shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates (including the Transferred Diversey Companies and their respective Subsidiaries) not to, (i) take any action that changes the entity classification under Treasury Regulation Section 301.7701-3 of any of the Prior CFCs, (ii) liquidate, merge out of existence or otherwise terminate the corporate existence for U.S. federal income tax purposes any of the Prior CFCs, (iii) otherwise take any action or enter into any transaction that would reasonably be expected to be treated as a distribution out of earnings and profits for U.S. federal income tax purposes by such Prior CFC (including pursuant to Section 304 of the Code), or (iv) undertake any actions outside of the ordinary course with respect to any of the Prior CFCs (in either case based on the relevant Prior CFC’s historic business activities) that would reasonably be expected to cause SEE or any of its Affiliates to realize a material additional amount of “subpart F income” within the meaning of Section 952 of the Code (as compared to the amount of subpart F income that SEE or any of its Affiliates otherwise would have realized for such taxable period based on an interim closing of the books as of the close of the Closing Date).

Section 6.11 Miscellaneous.

(a)Termination of Existing Tax Sharing Agreements. SEE hereby agrees and covenants that any Tax Sharing Agreement and any powers of attorney relating to Taxes, in each case to which any of the Transferred Diversey Companies and their Subsidiaries is a party (other than such a Tax Sharing Agreement among exclusively Transferred Diversey Companies and their Subsidiaries) will cease to apply to the Transferred Diversey Companies and their Subsidiaries on or prior to the Closing Date and no Transferred Diversey Company or its Subsidiaries shall be bound thereby or have any further liability thereunder.

(b)Conflict. In the event of any conflict with Article VIII, this Article VI shall control.

(c)Purchase Price Adjustment. Except to the extent otherwise required by applicable Law, or as provided in Section 6.12 any payment made pursuant to this Article VI or Section 8.4 shall be treated as an adjustment to purchase price for all Tax purposes. Each of Buyer and SEE shall notify the other party if it (or its Affiliate) receives notice that any Tax Authority proposes to treat any indemnity payment under this Agreement as other than an adjustment to the Purchase Price for Tax purposes.

92

(d)Interpretation. References in this Article VI to a Subsidiary of a Transferred Diversey Company shall mean an entity that is a Subsidiary of a Transferred Diversey Company as of the end of the Closing Date and, for the avoidance of doubt, not an entity that is not contemplated to be, and is not, transferred indirectly to Buyer upon the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 6.12 VAT. If SEE or any of the Diversey Asset Sellers determines (after taking appropriate professional advice) that VAT is chargeable on the transfer of any of the Diversey Assets, it shall promptly notify Buyer (and in any event at least ten (10) Business Days before the Closing Date) and provide a valid VAT invoice to Buyer on the Closing Date. On receipt of such valid VAT invoice, Buyer shall pay to SEE or the relevant Diversey Asset Seller (as applicable) an amount equal to such VAT, in addition to the Purchase Price on the Closing Date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any additional amount Buyer pays to Seller in respect of VAT shall not be treated as an increase to purchase price for Tax purposes or for purposes of Section 2.5. In the event that, following the Closing Date, Buyer is unable to recover any VAT chargeable on the transfer of the Diversey Assets and delivers to SEE a certification, together with applicable supporting documentation to SEE, SEE agrees to repay to Buyer one half of the amount paid by Buyer to SEE with respect to VAT that Buyer is unable to recover. The parties shall cooperate and use reasonable best efforts (consistent with the Restructuring Plan and the other provisions of this Agreement) to reduce or eliminate the amount of VAT chargeable with respect to the transfer of the Acquired Diversey Assets.

(b)by SEE or Buyer if the Closing shall not have occurred on or before October 16, 2017 (the “Outside Date”); provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 8.1(b) shall not be available to any party whose failure to satisfy the conditions of the other party under this Agreement shall have been the primary cause of, the failure of the Closing to occur on or prior to such date. provided, further, that Buyer shall have no right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(b) earlier than the fourth (4th) Business Day following the Outside Date, if SEE has provided the notice required pursuant to Section 8.1(f)(iv) on or after the third (3rd) Business day prior to the Outside Date;

(c)by SEE or Buyer if any Governmental Authority shall have issued an order, decree or ruling or taken any other action restraining, enjoining, or otherwise prohibiting consummation of the transactions contemplated hereunder and such order, decree, ruling, or other action shall have become final and binding; provided, however,

95

that the terminating party shall have fulfilled its obligations contained in Section 5.3 prior to exercising its right to termination hereunder;

(d)by Buyer upon written notice to SEE, if there shall have been a breach of any of the representations, warranties, agreements, or covenants set forth in this Agreement on the part of SEE which would reasonably be expected to render the satisfaction of any conditions set forth in Section 7.1 or Section 7.3 incapable of satisfaction, such violation or breach has not been waived in writing by Buyer, and the violation or breach (i) has not been cured within the earlier of (A) the Outside Date or (B) the date that is (30) days following Buyer’s written notice of such breach and (ii) is not capable of being cured prior to the Outside Date or the end of such period of thirty (30) days; provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 8.1(d) shall not be available to Buyer if it is then in material breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, or other agreement contained herein, and such breach would reasonably be expected to render the conditions to closing in Section 7.1 or Section 7.2 not to be satisfied as of the time the Closing would otherwise be required to occur pursuant to Section 2.3(a);

(e)by SEE upon written notice to Buyer, if there shall have been a breach of any of the representations, warranties, agreements, or covenants set forth in this Agreement on the part of Buyer which would reasonably be expected to render the satisfaction of any conditions set forth in Section 7.1 or Section 7.2 incapable of satisfaction, such violation or breach has not been waived in writing by SEE, and the violation or breach (i) has not been cured within the earlier of (A) the Outside Date and (B) the date that is thirty (30) days following SEE’s written notice of such breach and (ii) is not capable of being cured prior to the Outside Date or the end of such 30 day period; provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 8.1(e) shall not be available to SEE if it is then in material breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, or other agreement contained herein, and such breach would reasonably be expected to render the conditions to closing in Section 7.1 or Section 7.3 not to be satisfied as of the time the Closing would otherwise be required to occur pursuant to Section 2.3(a);

(f)by SEE upon written notice to Buyer, if (i) the Marketing Period has ended and all of the conditions set forth in Section 7.1 and Section 7.3 (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied by actions taken at the Closing, provided that each such condition is then capable of being satisfied at a Closing on the date of such written notice and on the date the Closing would otherwise be required to occur under Section 2.3(a)) have been satisfied and remain satisfied or have been waived by Buyer, (ii) all of the conditions set forth in Section 7.2 have been satisfied (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied by actions taken at the Closing, each of which is then capable of being satisfied at a Closing on the date of such written notice and on the date the Closing would otherwise be required to occur under Section 2.3(a)), and SEE has confirmed by irrevocable written notice delivered to Buyer that it is willing to waive any unsatisfied conditions in Section 7.2 (to the extent such waiver is permitted under Law) and that SEE stands ready, willing, and able to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement on such date and on the date the Closing would

96

otherwise be required to occur under Section 2.3(a), (iii) Buyer has failed to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement by the date that the Closing would have otherwise been required to occur under Section 2.3(a), (iv) SEE has given Buyer written notice at least three (3) Business Days prior to such termination stating SEE’s intention to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(f), and (v) Buyer fails to consummate the Closing on the date set forth in the foregoing notice; and

Section 8.2 Procedure and Effect of Termination.

(a)In the event of termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1 hereof, written notice thereof shall forthwith be given to the other party, and, except as set forth in this Section 8.2, this Agreement shall terminate and be void and have no effect and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be abandoned and there shall be no Liability or obligation on the part of any party hereunder. For the avoidance of doubt, subject to the provisions of Section 9.7, prior to the termination of this Agreement, each party shall be entitled to seek specific performance of the obligations of the other party under this Agreement in the event of an Intentional Breach. If this Agreement is terminated as provided herein:

(i)each party hereto will return or destroy, at the recipient party’s option, and will cause its agents (including attorneys and accountants) to return or destroy, all documents, work papers and other material of the other party hereto relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, whether obtained before or after the execution hereof;

(ii)all Information received by Buyer with respect to the business, operations, Assets or financial condition of SEE or its Subsidiaries shall remain subject to the Confidentiality Agreement in accordance with the terms thereof;

97

following such termination to such accounts designated in writing by SEE. As used herein, the term “Reverse Termination Fee” means a cash amount equal to $208,000,000.

(i)SEE and Buyer acknowledge and agree that (A) the provisions contained in this Section 8.2(b) are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and are included herein in order to induce the parties to enter into this Agreement and as consideration for incurring the costs and expenses related to entering into this Agreement and preparing to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and (B) any amounts payable pursuant to this Section 8.2(b) do not constitute a penalty. If Buyer fails to timely pay the Reverse Termination Fee in full and SEE commences an Action to obtain the Reverse Termination Fee that results in a judgment against Buyer for the Reverse Termination Fee (or any portion thereof), then Buyer shall reimburse SEE’s reasonable documented costs and expenses (including reasonable documented attorney’s fees, expenses and disbursements and any amounts payable pursuant to Section 5.19(b)) incurred in connection with such Action up to $2,500,000 in the aggregate.

(ii)Subject to the right of SEE to specific performance of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.7 prior to the termination of this Agreement, SEE and Buyer expressly acknowledge and agree that, if the Reverse Termination Fee is payable pursuant to Section 8.2(b): (A) receipt of the Reverse Termination Fee in full by SEE and the payment in full by Buyer of any reimbursement, expense, or interest obligations pursuant to Section 8.2(b)(i) up to an aggregate amount of $210,500,000 (the “Buyer Max Liability Amount”), if any, shall be the sole and exclusive remedy (whether at law, in equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise (whether for damages or equitable relief (including specific performance whether based on contract, tort, or strict liability or otherwise)) of SEE and its Affiliates (and any other Person) against any Non-Recourse Person for any Loss suffered hereunder or under the Related Agreements or otherwise in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including as a result of any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, or agreement in this Agreement or the Related Agreement or the failure of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement to be consummated, and upon SEE’s receipt of payment in full of the Buyer Max Liability Amount, (1) no Non-Recourse Person shall have any further liability or obligation relating to or arising out of this Agreement, the Related Agreements, the Limited Guaranty, the Equity Commitment Letter, or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (2) neither SEE nor any of its Affiliates nor any other Person shall be entitled or permitted to (and SEE covenants that it will not and will not permit its Affiliates to) bring or maintain any Action against any Non-Recourse Person arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, any Related Agreement, or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including any Actions relating to the Debt Financing or Debt Commitment Letter), or any of the transactions contemplated thereby (or the abandonment or termination thereof), or any matters forming the basis for such termination, and (3) SEE shall use reasonable best efforts to cause any Action pending in connection with this Agreement, any Related Agreement

98

(including any Action relating to the Debt Financing or the Debt Commitment Letter or Equity Commitment Letter), or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (or the abandonment or termination thereof), to the extent maintained by SEE or any of its Affiliates against any Non-Recourse Person, to be dismissed with prejudice promptly, and in any event within two (2) Business Days after the payment of the Reverse Termination Fee; (B) under no circumstances shall SEE or any of its Affiliates be entitled to collect (1) the Reverse Termination Fee on more than one occasion or (2) following SEE’s receipt of the Buyer Max Liability Amount, any monetary damages (including in lieu of specific performance) in excess of the Buyer Max Liability Amount; (C) in no event, if the Closing fails to occur, will the aggregate liability of the Buyer and the Non-Recourse Persons exceed the Buyer Max Liability Amount, except that the applicable Non-Recourse Persons shall remain obligated for, and SEE and its Subsidiaries shall be entitled to equitable remedies with respect to, any breach of the Confidentiality Agreement; and (D) in no event shall SEE seek on its own behalf or on behalf of any of its Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, partners, managers, members, stockholders, advisors, agents and other representatives, successors, and assigns any damages from, or otherwise bring any Action (whether for damages or equitable relief (including specific performance whether based on contract, tort, or strict liability or otherwise) against, any Non-Recourse Persons in connection with this Agreement, the Related Agreements or the transactions contemplated hereby (including any Action relating to the Debt Financing or Debt Commitment Letter), other than an Action to recover payment of the Buyer Max Liability Amount to the extent the Buyer Max Liability Amount is not paid when due pursuant to Section 8.2(b)(i).If under any circumstances Buyer is required to pay the Reverse Termination Fee hereunder, Buyer shall have the right to instead consummate the Closing and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Related Agreements in lieu of paying the Reverse Termination Fee.

Section 8.3 Survival of Representations, Warranties, and Covenants. The representations and warranties contained in this Agreement and the Local Purchase Agreements, and in any certificate or instrument delivered hereunder or thereunder and those covenants and agreements contained in Sections 5.1, 5.8, 5.12, 5.13, 5.15, 5.16, 5.17, 5.25, 5.27, 5.31, 5.32, and 5.34 that by their terms apply or are to be performed in whole or in part prior to the Closing Date shall survive the Closing and shall thereupon terminate one (1) year after the Closing Date; provided that the Fundamental Representations and the Buyer Fundamental Representations shall survive the Closing until expiration of the applicable statute of limitations for the underlying claim. All covenants and agreements contained herein which by their terms contemplate actions or performance or impose obligations in each case, in whole or in part, following the Closing shall survive the Closing and remain in full force and effect until termination thereof or completion of performance thereof in accordance with their terms; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, (a) the obligations of Buyer to assume, and to indemnify SEE Indemnified Parties for, the Assumed Liabilities and (b) the obligations of SEE to retain, and indemnify Buyer Indemnified Parties for, the Retained Liabilities shall in each case survive the Closing until the 20th anniversary of the Closing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for the avoidance of doubt, the survival period in this Section 8.3 shall be tolled pursuant to Section 8.4(d), as applicable.

99

Section 8.4 Indemnification.

(a)From and after Closing, and subject to Section 8.3 and this Section 8.4, SEE shall pay, defend, discharge, indemnify and hold harmless Buyer and its Subsidiaries and each of their Affiliates and each of Buyer’s, its Subsidiaries’, and its Affiliates’ respective officers, directors, employees, and agents (collectively, the “Buyer Indemnified Parties”) from and against any Losses (other than, except as provided in Section 8.4(n), indemnification related to Taxes or Losses arising from or related to Taxes, which shall be governed exclusively by Article VI) arising from or in connection with (i) the failure of the Sellers to duly perform or observe any covenant or agreement to be performed or observed by the Sellers pursuant to this Agreement or any Related Agreement (the remedy for which survives the Closing); (ii) any of the Retained Liabilities or Excluded Assets; or (iii) any breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty made by SEE in Article III of this Agreement and the SEE Representations Certificate. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, SEE shall not have any liability under any provision of this Agreement for any Loss to the extent that such Loss is caused by action or inaction by Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates after the Closing Date, including Buyer’s operation of the Diversey Assets and the Diversey Business after the Closing.

(b)From and after Closing, and subject to Section 8.3 and this Section 8.4, Buyer shall pay, defend, discharge, indemnify and hold harmless SEE and its Subsidiaries and each of their Affiliates and each of SEE’s, its Subsidiaries’ and its Affiliates’ respective officers, directors, employees, and agents (collectively, the “SEE Indemnified Parties”) from and against any Losses arising from or in connection with (i) the failure of Buyer to duly perform or observe any covenant or agreement to be performed or observed by Buyer after the Closing pursuant to this Agreement or any Related Agreement (the remedy for which survives the Closing); (ii) any of the Assumed Liabilities (regardless of whether such Assumed Liabilities were assumed by Buyer pursuant to Section 1.3) or the ownership or operation of the Diversey Assets or the Diversey Business (whether prior to, at, or following the Closing); or (iii) any breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty made by Buyer in Article IV of this Agreement and the certificate to be delivered pursuant to Section 7.2(c) (but solely to the extent such certificate relates to Section 7.2(a) therein). SEE acknowledges and agrees that, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, Buyer shall not have any liability under any provision of this Agreement for any Loss to the extent that such Loss is caused by action or inaction by SEE or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates after the Closing Date.

(c)Any calculation of Losses for purposes of this Section 8.4 or any indemnity payments made under Article VI hereof shall be (i) net of any insurance or other third-party recovery actually received by the Indemnified Party (whether paid directly to such Indemnified Party or assigned by the Indemnifying Party to such Indemnified Party) and (ii) reduced to take account of any net Tax benefit actually realized by the Indemnified Party as a result of any such Losses or Taxes; provided that, such Tax benefit is realized in any taxable year in which or prior to which such Loss or Tax was incurred, or in the succeeding four (4) taxable years. For purposes of

100

determining the amount of any Tax benefit, the recipient of the Tax benefit shall be deemed to realize, with respect to any taxable year, a Tax benefit attributable to a Loss or Tax if, and to the extent that, the Indemnified Party’s cumulative Liability for Taxes through the end of such taxable year, calculated by excluding any Tax items attributable to the Loss or Tax from all taxable years, exceeds the Indemnified Party’s actual cumulative Liability for Taxes through the end of such taxable year, calculated by taking into account any Tax items attributable to the Loss or Tax for all taxable years (to the extent permitted by relevant Tax Law and treating such Tax items as the last items claimed for any taxable year). An Indemnified Party who has a right to make a claim under any policy of insurance with respect to any claim for indemnification pursuant to Article VI or this Section 8.4 shall be required to make such claim under such policy of insurance promptly and in the manner required by the applicable insurance carrier before or concurrently with seeking recourse under Article VI or this Section 8.4, and the Indemnified Party shall use reasonable best efforts to cooperate with such insurance carrier and the Indemnifying Party in the prosecution of any such claim. A party (and its Affiliates) shall not be deemed to have suffered a “Loss” with respect to the amount of an item to the extent such party was actually compensated therefor by reason of an increase in the amount otherwise paid to it or a reduction in the amount otherwise paid by it pursuant to Section 2.4 hereof.

(d)No Action or claim for Losses subject to indemnification under this Section 8.4 with respect to a breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty or failure to perform a covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement shall be brought or made after the date on which such representation, warranty, covenant, or agreement terminates pursuant to Section 8.3 hereof, regardless of when the facts underlying such claim are first discovered; provided, however, that any claim made after the Closing and prior to such termination date with reasonable specificity by the Indemnified Party to the Indemnifying Party shall survive (and be subject to indemnification) until it is finally and fully resolved.

(e)Notwithstanding any provision in this Section 8.4 to the contrary, no Seller shall have any liability (i) under Section 8.4(a) with respect to Losses solely to the extent the amount of such Losses was taken into account as a reduction in the amount payable by Buyer in determining the Final Adjusted Closing Amounts or (ii) under Section 8.4(a)(iii) with respect to Losses solely to the extent that the item giving rise to such Losses was disclosed (x) in the Seller’s Disclosure Schedules as of the date hereof or (y) in a filing with or furnished to the United States Securities Exchange Commission between January 1, 2015 and one (1) Business Day prior to the date hereof.

(f)For purposes of determining the amount of Losses resulting from a breach or inaccuracy of a representation or warranty and for purposes of determining whether there has been any breach or inaccuracy of a representation or warranty, all qualifications or exceptions in any representation or warranty relating to or referring to the terms “materiality,” “material,” “material to the Diversey Business taken as a whole,” “Material Adverse Effect” or any similar term or phrase shall be disregarded (except with respect to the representations and warranties made by SEE in Section 3.5, Section 3.6(a), and Section 3.8, and in the definition of “Material Contracts”).

101

(g)Upon receipt by a Buyer Indemnified Party or SEE Indemnified Party (in either case, an “Indemnified Party”) of notice from a third party of any Action, demand, or assessment against such Indemnified Party (a “Third Party Claim”) that might give rise to a claim for Losses under this Section 8.4, the Indemnified Party (or SEE or Buyer, as applicable, on behalf of such Indemnified Party) shall promptly give written notice thereof to the party from whom indemnification is sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) setting forth, with reasonable specificity, the nature of and facts underlying each particular claim (including identification of all particular sections of this Agreement pursuant to which indemnification is being sought), a copy of any documentation received from the third party, and a good faith estimate of the amount and character of the Losses relating thereto; provided, however, that failure to give such notice shall not eliminate the right to indemnification provided hereunder except to the extent the Indemnifying Party shall have been actually prejudiced as a result of such failure.

(i)The Indemnifying Party shall have the right, at its option, to assume the defense of, at its own expense and by its own counsel, any such matter as to which the Indemnified Party is seeking indemnification hereunder. If the Indemnifying Party determines, in accordance with the preceding sentence, to undertake to compromise or defend any such asserted liability, it shall, within thirty (30) days of the Indemnifying Party’s receipt of notice of such Third Party Claim, notify the Indemnified Party of its intention to do so, and the Indemnified Party shall agree to cooperate in good faith with the Indemnifying Party and its counsel in the compromise of, or defense against, any such asserted liability; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall not settle any such asserted liability without the written consent of the Indemnified Party (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed) unless such settlement releases the Indemnified Party in connection with such matter and provides relief consisting solely of money damages borne by the Indemnifying Party. Except with respect to Existing SEE Actions, notwithstanding an election of the Indemnifying Party to assume the defense of such action or proceeding, the Indemnified Party shall have the right, at its own cost and expense, to employ separate counsel and to participate in the defense of such action or proceeding; provided that the Indemnifying Party shall bear the reasonable fees, costs and expenses of one such separate counsel in each jurisdiction, if, but only if, (A) (1) the defendants in, or targets of, any such action or proceeding include both an Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party, and the Indemnified Party shall have reasonably concluded, based on the advice of counsel, that there may be legal defenses available to it that are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party or (2) the Indemnified Party shall have reasonably concluded, based on the advice of counsel, that there is a material conflict of interest between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party with respect to such proceeding (in either case the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to direct the defense of such action or proceeding on behalf of the Indemnified Party), or (B) the Indemnifying Party shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party to represent such Indemnified Party within thirty (30) days of receipt of Buyer’s written notice of the institution of such proceeding. In any event, the Indemnified Party and its

102

counsel shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party and its counsel and shall not assert any position in any proceeding inconsistent with that asserted by the Indemnifying Party.

(ii)If the Indemnifying Party does not undertake to compromise or defend a Third Party Claim pursuant to Section 8.4(g)(i) above, then the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to participate in any such defense at its sole cost and expense, but in such case, the Indemnified Party shall control the investigation and defense of the asserted liability; provided, however, that the Indemnified Party shall not consent to any settlement of a Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party; provided, further, that the Indemnifying Party may, at its option, elect at any time to assume and control the defense against such Third Party Claim. The Indemnifying Party’s decision to allow the Indemnified Party to take the lead with respect to any indemnity obligation of the Indemnifying Party shall not limit, expand, or otherwise affect the Indemnifying Party’s obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Party with respect to any such indemnity obligation, and if an Indemnified Party settles a Third Party Claim it is defending pursuant to this Section 8.4(g)(ii) without obtaining the Indemnifying Party’s written consent to such settlement in violation of the immediately preceding sentence, then the Indemnifying Party shall be relieved of its indemnification obligations hereunder with respect to such Third Party Claim.

(h)In the event any Indemnified Party should have an indemnification claim against any Indemnifying Party under this Agreement that does not involve a claim by a third party, promptly after becoming aware of any facts or circumstances which the Indemnified Party believes have given or would reasonably be expected to give rise to a right of indemnification pursuant to this Agreement, the Indemnified Party shall deliver notice of such claim to the Indemnifying Party in writing setting forth, with reasonable specificity, the nature of and facts underlying each particular claim (including identification of all particular sections of this Agreement pursuant to which indemnification is being sought) and a good faith estimate of the amount and character of the Losses relating thereto. The failure by any Indemnified Party to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any liability that it may have to such Indemnified Party, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party has been prejudiced by such failure. If the Indemnifying Party disputes its liability with respect to such claim, the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall proceed in good faith to negotiate a resolution of such dispute and, if not resolved through negotiations, such dispute shall be resolved by litigation pursuant to Section 9.9.

(i)The indemnification provisions of Article VI and this Section 8.4 (i) shall be the sole and exclusive remedy (other than injunctive relief or specific performance as contemplated by Section 9.7, and other than as provided in Section 2.4 and Section 5.16(g), and other than as specifically provided in the Transition Services Agreement, the Clawback Agreement, the Trademark License Agreement (CRYOVAC Mark), or any definitive written license agreement based on the TempTrip Term Sheet) following the Closing with respect to any breach or inaccuracy of any representation or

103

warranty or any failure to perform any agreement, covenant, or any other obligation contained in this Agreement or any Related Agreement, with respect to any and all claims arising under, out of, or relating to this Agreement or any Related Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby, and the negotiation, execution, or performance of this Agreement or any Related Agreement, and with respect to any Losses arising out of or in connection with the Assumed Liabilities, Diversey Assets, Retained Liabilities, or Excluded Assets (collectively, the “Specified Matters”); (ii) shall apply without regard to, and shall not be subject to, any limitation by reason of set-off, limitation or otherwise (other than to the extent expressly set forth in Section 8.4(c)); and (iii) are intended to be comprehensive and not to be limited by any requirements of Law concerning prominence of language or waiver of any legal right under any Law (including rights under any workers’ compensation statute or similar statute conferring immunity from suit). In furtherance of the foregoing, other than with respect to injunctive relief or specific performance as contemplated by Section 9.7, and other than as provided in Section 2.4 and Section 5.16(g), and other than as specifically provided in the Transition Services Agreement, the Clawback Agreement, the Trademark License Agreement (CRYOVAC Mark), or any definitive written license agreement based on the TempTrip Term Sheet, following the Closing, each of Buyer and SEE hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, any and all other rights, claims, and causes of action that exist or may arise in the future that it may have against each other or any of the Affiliates of the other arising under or based upon any Law with respect to the Specified Matters. Nothing in this Section 8.4(i) shall limit a Person’s right to seek a remedy on account of fraud in respect of any of the representations and warranties made in this Agreement. The obligations of the parties set forth in this Section 8.4 shall be conditioned upon the occurrence of the Closing. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in no event shall any party, its successors, or its permitted assigns be entitled to claim or seek rescission of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Related Agreements.

(j)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, neither SEE nor Buyer shall be required to provide indemnification for Losses under Section 8.4(a)(i) and Section 8.4(a)(iii) or under Section 8.4(b)(i) and Section 8.4(b)(iii) to the Buyer Indemnified Parties or SEE Indemnified Parties, respectively, (i) for any individual item for which the Loss relating thereto is less than $250,000 (the “De Minimis Claim Threshold”) or (ii) in respect of each individual item for which the Loss relating thereto is equal to or greater than the De Minimis Claim Threshold, unless the aggregate amount of all such Losses incurred by the Buyer Indemnified Parties or SEE Indemnified Parties, as applicable, with respect to such breaches (in the aggregate), exceeds $32,000,000 (the “Basket”), in which case the obligation to provide indemnification under Section 8.4(a)(iii) or Section 8.4(b)(iii) to the Buyer Indemnified Parties or SEE Indemnified Parties, as the case may be, shall apply only with respect to such amounts as are in excess of the Basket; provided, however, that the Basket shall not apply to any claim involving Losses arising out of or relating to a breach or inaccuracy of any Fundamental Representation or Buyer Fundamental Representation.

(k)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, neither SEE nor Buyer shall be required to make payments for indemnification to Buyer Indemnified

104

Parties or the SEE Indemnified Parties, respectively, under Section 8.4(a)(iii) and Section 8.4(b)(iii) when the aggregate amounts paid by SEE or Buyer, as applicable, with respect thereto exceeds $128,000,000 (the “Cap”); provided, however, that the Cap with respect to Losses arising out of or relating to a breach or inaccuracy of any Fundamental Representation or Buyer Fundamental Representation shall be $240,000,000.

(l)Neither the Basket nor the Cap shall apply to any claim involving Losses arising out of or relating to any claim for indemnification pursuant to Article VI, Section 8.4(a)(i), Section 8.4(a)(ii), Section 8.4(b)(i), or Section 8.4(b)(ii).

(m)Each Indemnified Party shall use, and shall cause its Affiliates to use, reasonable best efforts to mitigate any Loss upon becoming aware of any event or circumstance that would be reasonably expected to, or does, give rise thereto, including incurring costs only to the minimum extent necessary to remedy the breach that gives rise to such Loss, asserting claims against a third party, or otherwise qualifying for a benefit that would reduce or eliminate an indemnified matter. To the extent that any breach of any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement is capable of remedy, the Indemnified Party shall afford the Indemnifying Party a reasonable opportunity to remedy such matter.

(n)Buyer shall not have any right to indemnification under this Section 8.4 with respect Losses or Taxes that result from any breach of the representations set forth in Section 3.10; provided, however, that, notwithstanding this Section 8.4(n), Buyer shall have the right to indemnification for Taxes that are attributable to a breach of the representations set forth in Section 3.10(i) and Section 3.10(j) that are imposed in or relate to a Post-Closing Tax Period; provided, further, that the determination of whether there has been a breach of the representations set forth in Section 3.10(j) shall be made without regard to Section 3.10(j) of the Seller’s Disclosure Schedule.

Article IX

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 9.1 Amendment and Modifications. This Agreement may be amended, modified or supplemented at any time by the parties hereto, but only by an instrument in writing signed on behalf of SEE and Buyer. To the extent any amendment or waiver to Section 8.2(b), this Section 9.1, Section 9.6, Section 9.9(a), Section 9.9(c), Section 9.9(d), Section 9.15, and Section 9.16 is sought which is adverse in any material respect to the rights of the Debt Financing Sources, the prior written consent of such Debt Financing Sources shall be required before such amendment or waiver is rendered effective.

Section 9.2 Extension; Waiver. At any time before the Closing to the extent permitted by applicable Law, either SEE or Buyer may (a) extend the time for the performance of any obligation or other acts of the other Person, (b) waive any breaches or inaccuracies in the representations and warranties of the other Person contained in this Agreement or in any document delivered pursuant to this Agreement or (c) waive compliance by the other Person with any covenant, agreement, or condition contained in this Agreement, but such waiver of compliance with any such covenant, agreement, or condition shall not operate as a waiver of, or

105

estoppel with respect to, any subsequent or other failure. Any such waiver or extension shall be in a written instrument duly executed by the waiving party. No failure or delay on the part of any party hereto in the exercise of any right hereunder shall impair such right or be construed to be a waiver of, or acquiescence in, any breach of any representation, warranty or agreement herein, nor shall any single or partial exercise of such right preclude other or further exercise thereof or any other right.

Section 9.6 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the Laws of the State of Delaware, regardless of the Laws that might otherwise govern under applicable principles of conflicts of Laws thereof (other than as contemplated by, and except to the extent required under, the Financing Commitments, which shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the Laws of the State of New York, except with respect to the interpretation and application of the definition of Material Adverse Effect, to which the Laws of the State of Delaware shall apply).

Section 9.7 Specific Performance.

(a)The parties hereto agree that, if any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached, irreparable damage would occur, no adequate remedy at law would exist, and damages would be difficult to determine. Accordingly, the parties hereto expressly consent to the granting of an injunction, specific performance, or other equitable relief to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of any provision of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement, in addition to any other remedy at law or in equity, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement (including in Section 8.2 and Section 9.7(b)). The parties hereto further agree not to assert that a remedy (i) of injunctive relief, specific performance, or other equitable relief is unenforceable, invalid, or contrary to Law or (ii) of monetary damages would provide an adequate remedy. Each of the parties hereto hereby waives (A) any defense that a remedy at law would be adequate and (B) any requirement under any Law to post a bond or other security as a prerequisite to obtaining equitable relief.

(b)The parties hereto agree that, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement (including Section 5.18 and the foregoing Section 9.7(a)) to the contrary, SEE shall be entitled to an injunction, specific performance, or any other equitable relief requiring Buyer to cause the Equity Financing to be funded, to specifically enforce Buyer’s rights under the Equity Commitment Letter, or to cause Buyer to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, including to effect the Closing in accordance with Section 2.3(a), on the terms and subject to the conditions in this Agreement, solely and exclusively pursuant to this Section 9.7(b) if and only if: (i) all conditions in Section 7.1 and Section 7.3 have been satisfied and remain satisfied as of the date on which the Closing would otherwise be required to occur (other than those conditions that, by their nature, are to be satisfied at the Closing; provided that such conditions are capable of satisfaction as of such date and the date the Closing would otherwise be required to have occurred under Section 2.3(a)), (ii) Buyer fails to complete the Closing by the date the Closing would otherwise be required to have occurred pursuant to Section 2.3(a), (iii) the Debt Financing (or alternative debt financing in accordance with Section 5.18) has been funded or will be funded to Buyer at the Closing (or, if such Debt Financing has been funded into escrow, such funds have been or will be released from escrow at the Closing) if the Equity Financing were to be funded at Closing, and (iv) SEE has confirmed in an

108

irrevocable writing delivered to Buyer if specific performance is granted and the Equity Financing is funded, then SEE is prepared to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The election of SEE to pursue an injunction or specific performance prior to the termination of this Agreement shall not restrict, impair, or otherwise limit SEE from subsequently seeking to terminate this Agreement and seeking to collect the Reverse Termination Fee pursuant to Section 8.2(b); provided, however, that SEE shall not be entitled to receive both a grant of specific performance of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby pursuant to this Section 9.7(b) and the payment of any portion of the Reverse Termination Fee (or any money damages).

Section 9.8 Publicity. Each of the parties to this Agreement hereby agrees with the other party hereto that no press release or similar public announcement or communication shall, if prior to, or after, the Closing, be made or be caused to be made (including by such parties’ respective Affiliates) concerning the execution or performance of this Agreement unless the parties shall have agreed in advance with respect thereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing (a) either party may make or cause to be made any press release or similar public announcement or communication as may be required to comply with the requirements of any applicable Laws or the rules and regulations of each stock exchange upon which the securities of one of the parties is listed and (b) SEE may disclose any information concerning the transactions contemplated hereby which it deems appropriate in its reasonable judgment, in light of its status as a publicly owned company, including to securities analysts and institutional investors and in press interviews; provided that with respect to the Diversey Business (except to the extent it relates to SEE’s activities with respect to the effect on SEE of the separation or disposition of the Diversey Business), SEE will use reasonable best efforts to remain within the bounds of the parties’ prior disclosures; provided, further, that, prior to the Closing, in the case of clauses (a) and (b) above, such party shall, unless impracticable in light of the circumstances, (i) provides the other party with a reasonable opportunity in light of the circumstances to review such party’s intended communication and (ii) consider in good faith modifications to the intended communication that are requested by the other party.

Section 9.9 Jurisdiction; Forum, Etc.

(a)The parties hereto agree that the appropriate, exclusive, and convenient forum for any disputes between any of the parties hereto arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby shall be in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or, if such court lacks personal or subject matter jurisdiction, then in any state or federal court in New Castle County in the State of Delaware. The parties hereto further agree that the parties will not bring suit with respect to any disputes arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby in any court or jurisdiction other than the above specified courts; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not limit (i) SEE’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ ability or right to join or implead Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries in an action brought against SEE or any of its Subsidiaries by an unaffiliated third party in a jurisdiction outside the State of Delaware and Buyer agrees that, pursuant to Section 9.9(b), it (and its Subsidiaries, as applicable) will submit to such jurisdiction or (ii) Buyer’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ ability or right to join, implead SEE or any of its Subsidiaries in an action brought against Buyer or any of its Subsidiaries by an unaffiliated third party in a jurisdiction outside the State of Delaware, and SEE agrees

109

that, pursuant to Section 9.9(b), it (and its Subsidiaries, as applicable) will submit to such jurisdiction. In any such Action, the parties irrevocably consent to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 9.5 above, or in any other manner permitted by applicable Law. The parties hereto further agree, to the extent permitted by Law, that final and unappealable judgment against a party in any Action or proceeding contemplated above shall be conclusive and may be enforced in any other jurisdiction within or outside the United States by suit on the judgment, a certified or exemplified copy of which shall be conclusive evidence of the fact and amount of such judgment.

(b)To the extent that any party hereto has or hereafter may acquire any immunity from jurisdiction of any court or from any legal process (whether through service or notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution, execution or otherwise) with respect to itself or its property, each such party hereby irrevocably (i) waives such immunity in respect of its obligations with respect to this Agreement, and (ii) submits to the personal jurisdiction of any court described in Section 9.9(a).

(c)Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the parties hereto agree that the appropriate, exclusive, and convenient forum for any dispute brought against the Debt Financing Source Related Parties relating to this Agreement, the Local Purchase Agreements or any certificate or instrument delivered hereunder or thereunder, or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, including but not limited to any dispute arising out of or relating to the Financing Commitments or the performance thereof, shall be the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York, or, if permitted under applicable Law, the federal courts, the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York in the Borough of Manhattan (and appellate courts thereof) and makes the agreements, waivers, and consents set forth in Section 9.9(a) and Section 9.9(b) mutatis mutandis but with respect to the courts specified in this Section 9.9(c).

(d)THE PARTIES HERETO AGREE THAT THEY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVE, AND AGREE TO CAUSE THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES AND SUBSIDIARIES TO WAIVE, THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE RELATED AGREEMENTS, EQUITY COMMITMENT LETTER, DEBT COMMITMENT LETTER, LIMITED GUARANTY AND THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY AND EACH OF THE FOREGOING.

Section 9.11 Counterparts. This Agreement and any Related Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument. This Agreement and any Related Agreement shall become effective when each party hereto shall have received a counterpart hereof signed by the other party hereto. Facsimile transmission (including the e-mail delivery of documents in Adobe PDF format) of any signed original counterpart and/or retransmission of any signed facsimile transmission shall be deemed the same as the delivery of

110

an original. Minor variations in the form of the signature page to this Agreement or any Related Agreement, including footers from earlier versions of this Agreement or any such other document, will be disregarded in determining the effectiveness of such signature. At the request of any party hereto or to any such agreement or instrument, each other party hereto or thereto will re-execute original forms thereof and deliver them to all other parties hereto. No party hereto or to any such agreement or instrument will raise the fact that any signature or agreement or instrument was transmitted or communicated through the use of an electronic transmission in PDF as a defense to the formation or enforceability of a contract and each such party forever waives any such defense.

Section 9.12 Expenses. Whether or not the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are consummated, and except as otherwise expressly set forth herein, all costs and expenses (including legal fees, accounting fees, investment banking fees and filing fees) incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be paid by the party incurring such expenses.

Buyer hereby agrees that, in the event that a dispute arises between Buyer or any of its Affiliates (including, after the Closing, the Transferred Diversey Companies and their Subsidiaries) and SEE or any of its Affiliates (including, prior to the Closing, the Transferred Diversey Companies and their Subsidiaries), each of Skadden and such Other Counsel may represent SEE or any such Affiliate in such dispute even though the interests of SEE or such Affiliate may be directly adverse to Buyer or any of its Affiliates (including, after the Closing, the Transferred Diversey Companies and their Subsidiaries) and even though Skadden or such Other Counsel, as applicable, may have represented a Transferred Diversey Company or one of its Subsidiaries in a matter substantially related to such dispute, or may be handling ongoing matters for Buyer or a Transferred Diversey Company or one of its Subsidiaries, and Buyer and the Transferred Diversey Companies and their Subsidiaries hereby waive, on behalf of themselves and each of their Affiliates, any conflict of interest in connection with such representation by Skadden or such Other Counsel, as applicable. Buyer further agrees that, as to all communications, whether written or electronic, among Skadden, such Other Counsel, SEE, the Transferred Diversey Companies and their respective Subsidiaries, and all files, attorney notes, drafts or other documents, that relate in any way to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and that predate the Closing, the attorney-client privilege, the expectation of client confidence and all other rights to any evidentiary privilege belong to SEE

111

and may be controlled by SEE and shall not pass to or be claimed by Buyer or the Transferred Diversey Companies or any of their Subsidiaries. SEE and Buyer agree to take and to cause their respective Affiliates to take, all steps necessary to implement the intent of this Section 9.14. SEE and Buyer further agree that Skadden and such Other Counsel and their respective partners and employees are third party beneficiaries of this Section 9.14.

Section 9.15 Non-Recourse. This Agreement may be enforced only against SEE and Buyer. All Actions (whether in contract, tort, or equity, at law, or granted by statute, whether by or through attempted piercing of the corporate, limited partnership or limited liability company veil or otherwise) that may be based upon, arise under, out or by reason of, be connected with, or relate in any manner to (a) this Agreement or any of the other agreements or documents contemplated hereby, (b) the negotiation, execution, or performance of this Agreement or any of the documents contemplated hereby (including any representation or warranty made in connection with, or as an inducement to, this Agreement or any of the other agreements or documents contemplated hereby), (c) any breach or violation of this Agreement (including the failure of any representation and warranty to be true or accurate) or any of the other agreements or documents contemplated hereby, and (d) any failure of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including the Sale), in each case, may be made only against (and are those solely of) the Persons that are expressly named as parties to this Agreement, the Related Agreements, the Debt Commitment Letter, the Fee Letter, the Equity Commitment Letter, the Limited Guaranty, and the Confidentiality Agreement, and then only to the extent of the specific obligations of such Persons set forth in such document, as applicable. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, and notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, each party hereto covenants, agrees and acknowledges that (except to the extent named as a party to this Agreement, the Related Agreements, the Debt Commitment Letter, the Fee Letter, the Equity Commitment Letter, the Limited Guaranty, and the Confidentiality Agreement, and then only to the extent of the specific obligations of such parties set forth in such document, as applicable) no recourse under this Agreement, any related document or any documents or instruments delivered in connection with this Agreement or any related document shall be had against any past, present or future direct or indirect equityholder, controlling person, Affiliate, member, manager, general or limited partner, stockholder, incorporator, director, officer, employee, agent, attorney, advisor or other Representative, successor, or assignee of any of Buyer or the Guarantors (including any Person negotiating or executing this Agreement on behalf of a party) (each, a “Non-Recourse Person”), shall have any liability or obligation (whether in contract, tort, or equity, at law, or granted by statute, whether by or through attempted piercing of the corporate, limited partnership or limited liability company veil or otherwise). For the avoidance of doubt, it is expressly agreed and understood by the parties hereto that nothing contained in this Section 9.15 shall limit SEE’s remedies under the Equity Commitment Letter or the Limited Guaranty against the parties thereto on the terms set forth therein. Notwithstanding the above, (i) no Debt Financing Source Related Party shall have any liability or obligation to SEE or its Subsidiaries with respect to this Agreement or with respect to any claim or cause of action that may arise out of or related to this Agreement, and (ii) each of SEE and its Subsidiaries hereby agrees that it will not (A) seek to enforce this Agreement against, make any claims for breach of this Agreement against, or seek to recover monetary damages from, any Debt Financing Source Related Party in connection with this Agreement or (B) seek to enforce the commitments against, make any claims for breach of the Debt Commitment Letter against, or seek to recover monetary damages from, or otherwise sue, any Debt Financing Source Related Party for any reason in connection therewith.

112

Section 9.17 Schedules. The disclosure of any matter in any Schedule to this Agreement shall expressly not be deemed to constitute an admission by SEE or Buyer, or to otherwise imply, that any such matter is material for the purpose of this Agreement. Any information, item, or other disclosure set forth in any Schedule shall be deemed to have been set forth in any other Schedule, if the relevance of such disclosure to such other portion is reasonably apparent from the facts specified in such disclosure.

Section 9.18 Interpretation. An item arising with respect to a specific representation or warranty shall be deemed to be “reflected on,” “set forth in” or “given effect in numbers on” a balance sheet or financial statement, to the extent any such phrase appears in such representation or warranty, to the extent that (a) there is a reserve, accrual or other similar item underlying a number on the face of such balance sheet or financial statement that relates specifically to the subject of such representation or exception thereto or (b) such item is otherwise specifically set forth on the face of such balance sheet or financial statement, including the notes thereto.

113

dates, references to any statute shall be deemed to refer to such statute, as amended, and to any rules or regulations promulgated thereunder, in each case, as of such date). For the avoidance of doubt, (i) any failure by any other Seller or other Affiliate of SEE to comply with obligations or agreements SEE is required under this Agreements or the Related Agreements to cause such Seller or Affiliate to comply with, shall be a breach by SEE of this Agreement or such other agreements; and (ii) any failure by any Diversey Share Buyer, Diversey Asset Buyer, or other Subsidiary of Buyer to comply with obligations or agreements Buyer is required under this Agreement or the Related Agreements to cause such Diversey Share Buyer, Diversey Asset Buyer, or Subsidiary to comply with, shall be a breach by Buyer of this Agreement or such other agreements.
