For example, should the aggregate amounts in dispute total USD 1,000 and the Selected Auditing Firm awards USD 600 in favor of Seller’s position, 60% of the costs of the Selected Auditing Firm would be borne by Buyers and 40% of such costs would be borne by Seller. The Selected Auditing Firm shall be instructed to issue and deliver to the Parties, within 30 days from the date it was engaged, its opinion on the items and amounts that were identified as items of disagreement by Seller in the Disagreement Notice (“Adjustment Opinion”), always in accordance with Schedule 2.4, with due regard to Section 5.11.1 and the Accounting Principles. The Adjustment Opinion shall be final, conclusive, and binding on the Parties (absent fraud or manifest error), provided that the Selected Auditing Firm shall not be construed as an arbitrator. The Parties agree that once the amounts of Closing Working Capital and Closing Net Debt are finally determined pursuant to this Section 2.6, the relevant amount to be considered for purposes of the Price Adjustment shall be in USD (which conversion into USD shall be made in accordance with Schedule 2.4).

10.4.1. For purposes of computing amounts for the thresholds indicated in items (a) to (c) of Section 10.4, the amounts of indemnifiable Losses (incurred by Buyers Indemnitees) in currency other than USD shall be converted into USD pursuant to the exchange rates indicated in Schedule 7.27 at the respective dates the Losses are materialized.

10.4.2. For clarity purposes: (i) if after the conversion of the respective Loss to USD pursuant to Section 10.4.1, such Loss is lower than the Individual Threshold, such Loss shall be disregarded and not be indemnifiable to the Buyers Indemnitee; (ii) if a Loss surpasses the Individual Threshold, its amount in USD (as converted pursuant to Section 10.4.1) shall be added to the amount in USD of all other Losses that surpasses the Individual Threshold (in each case, as converted pursuant to Section 10.4.1) – with no inflation adjustment –, until such aggregate amount exceeds the Aggregate Threshold, when the amount of all such Losses that surpassed the Individual Threshold shall be indemnified to the Buyers Indemnitees pursuant to Section 10.8.4; and (iii) in the event the aggregate amount of all Losses (as converted to USD pursuant to Section 10.4.1) – with no inflation adjustment –, reaches the limit set forth in Section 10.4(c), no additional Loss shall be indemnifiable to the Buyers’ Indemnitees.

10.5. Time Limitation to the Parties Indemnification Obligations. Seller’s obligation to indemnify, on one side, and Buyers’ obligation to indemnify, on the other, provided for in this Agreement shall survive in respect of any Claims notified until the 5 th anniversary of the Closing Date (“Survival Period”), after which no notice for Claims shall be made for indemnification under Section 10.1 thereafter, except for Claims for Losses resulting from (a) Tax, environmental and/or relating to Anti Bribery Law matters, which shall survive in respect of any Claims notified until the 6 th anniversary of the Closing Date; (b) fraud, willful misconduct, breach or inaccuracy of any of the Seller’s Fundamental Representations and Warranties, the Buyers’ Fundamental Representations and Warranties, and/or breach or inaccuracy of any of the representations and warranties made by Buyers in Section 8, which shall survive in respect of any Claims notified until the end of the relevant statute of limitations (prazo prescricional) set forth in the applicable Law. None of the undertakings under covenants or other agreements contained in this Agreement shall survive the Closing other than with respect to the covenants and agreements that by their terms apply or are to be performed in whole or in part after the Closing Date, which covenants and agreements shall survive for the period provided in such covenants and agreements, if any, or until fully performed (and, if any such covenant or agreement is not performed, the relevant Losses may be claimed by an Indemnitee thereafter and any such Claim made in good faith within the applicable time periods set forth in the first part of this Section 10.5 (including items (a) and (b)) shall survive until such Claim is finally resolved and indemnified pursuant to the terms hereof.

10.6. Effective Amount to be Indemnified. The following principles shall apply in calculating the amount of any Losses indemnifiable by Seller pursuant to Section 10.1 above:

(a) The amount of any Loss shall be reduced so as to reflect, in full, any indemnification (including by reason of insurance policies and any other indemnification, surety, contribution or similar arrangements available to it) that Buyers Indemnitee effectively receives by reason of the event, condition, or circumstance that gave rise to the relevant Loss; provided, however, that the Buyers Indemnitees shall not be required to first pursue any such indemnification (including by reason of insurance policies and any other indemnification, surety, contribution or similar arrangements available to it) against third parties as a condition and in lieu of pursuing Claims for any or all such Losses against the applicable Indemnifying Party pursuant to Section 10.1; and

(b) The amount of the Loss shall be reduced so as to reflect, in full, the amount of any Tax saving arising from the deductibility of the Loss to the benefit of Buyers Indemnitee, with due regard to Section 10.6.2 below.

10.6.1. Notwithstanding the above, should the Buyers Indemnitees have any rights, remedies and/or defenses against any Third Parties related to an indemnifiable Loss (including by reason of insurance policies and any other indemnification, surety, contribution or similar arrangements available to any of the Buyers Indemnitees), t he Buyers Indemnitees shall use their reasonable best efforts to pursue such rights, remedies and defenses. Should any amount be received by any of the Buyers Indemnitees pursuant to this Section 10.6.1 after the payment of the related indemnification by Seller, such amount shall be paid to Seller by the Buyers Indemnitees within 5 Business Days from receipt thereof, net of (reduced by any) applicable Taxes and Losses (including court fees and attorney fees in the defense of the relevant Claims) arising from the exercise of such rights, remedies and/or defenses.

10.6.2. All Claims for indemnification under this Section 10 (and Losses to be indemnified in connection therewith) shall be made on an after-Tax basis. Accordingly, in determining the amount of any indemnification payment for a Loss suffered or incurred by any Indemnitee, the amount of such Loss shall be increased to consider any Tax incurred by the Indemnitee arising from the receipt of indemnity payments hereunder (i.e. gross up), with due regard to Section 10.6(b).

10.7. Direct Claim Procedure. In the event a Buyers Indemnitee or a Seller Indemnitee (as the case may be, an “Indemnitee”) intends to claim indemnification for a Loss under the terms hereof that does not involve a Third Party Claim (“Direct Claim”), such Indemnitee shall give written notice to the Party responsible for such indemnification pursuant to Sections 10.1 and 10.2, as applicable (the “Indemnitor”) informing the Loss suffered and specifying in detail its cause and amount involved (“Direct Claim Notice”).

10.7.1. If, following receipt of a Direct Claim Notice, the Indemnitor disputes its liability for the Loss suffered by the Indemnitee described therein, the Indemnitor shall give the Indemnitee notice within 10 Business Days from the date of its receipt of the Direct Claim Notice, specifying in reasonable detail the reasons for its dispute (“Response to Direct Claim Notice”). If the term of 10 Business Days has elapsed and the Indemnitor has failed to provide the Indemnitee with a Response to the Claim Notice, the Loss specified in the applicable Claim Notice shall become due by the Indemnitor and, unless otherwise subject to any of the limitations set out in this Section 10, shall be paid to Indemnitee within 10 Business Days from the end of the term for timely presentation of the Response to Direct Claim Notice (with due regard to Section 12.2 below). If the Indemnitor disputes only a part of the Loss described in the Direct Claim Notice, the non-disputed amount shall become due by the Indemnitor and, unless otherwise subject to any of the limitations set out in this Section 10, shall be paid to Indemnitee within 10 Business Days from the date of the Response to Direct Claim Notice (with due regard to Section 12.2 below).

10.7.2. If, following receipt of a Direct Claim Notice, the Indemnitor timely provides a Response to Direct Claim Notice, the Indemnitee and the Indemnitor shall use their good faith and reasonable best efforts to, within 10 Business Days from the date of the Response to Direct Claim Notice, discuss and resolve the content of the Direct Claim Notice and related Response to Direct Claim Notice, and the amount of the indemnifiable Loss of the Indemnitee if any (which, if agreed and, unless otherwise subject to any of the limitations set out in this Section 10, shall be paid to Indemnitee within 10 Business Days from the date of the Response to Direct Claim Notice (with due regard to Section 12.2 below)). If resolution is not reached with respect to any disputes within such 10 Business Days period, such disputes shall be resolved by arbitration, as provided in Section 13.4 hereof.

10.8. Third Party Claim Procedure. Should any third-party Claim be brought against an Indemnitee (each a “Third Party Claim”), the Indemnitee shall give the Indemnitor notice of such Third Party Claim specifying in detail the nature of such Third Party Claim and the amount of all related Losses (“Third Party Claim Notice”). Such Third Party Claim Notice shall be sent by the Indemnitee to the Indemnitor prior to the expiration of the first third of the legal term established for the answer to or defense against such Third Party Claim. Failure by the Indemnitee to comply with its obligations under this Section 10.8 (including failure to send the Third Party Claim Notice within the term herein mentioned), shall not relieve the Indemnitor from its indemnification obligations under this Section 10, except to the extent such failure prevents or impairs the defense against such Third Party Claim. Any information which is part of a Third Party Claim Notice and which is confidential, shall only be accessed by the Indemnitor t o the extent receipt and use thereof is subject to the confidentiality undertaking set forth in Section 9.1, with the 5-year term undertaking counting from the date the Indemnitor has access to the relevant information, or if the Indemnitor to agrees to a similar confidentiality undertaking.

10.8.1. The Indemnitor shall be entitled, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, to assume and control the answers and defense of such Third Party Claim at its expense and through reputable and qualified counsel of its choice, and always in accordance with the Law, and shall notify its intention to do so to the Indemnitee prior to the expiration of the second-third of the legal term established for the answer to or defense against such Third Party Claim; provided, that the Indemnitor and such counsel shall use diligent and good faith efforts in such defense and always in accordance with the Law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnitee will have the right to follow up the procedures in respect of a Third Party Claim, at its own cost and expense, and with counsel of its own choosing. The Indemnitee shall reasonably cooperate with the Indemnitor in the defense and settlement of any Third Party Claim and make available to the Indemnitor all witnesses, power-of-attorneys, pertinent records, materials and information in the Indemnitee’s possession or under the Indemnitee’s control relating thereto as is reasonably required by the Indemnitor. Any settlement, compromise or discharge of such Third Party Claim, admission of liability or permission of a default or consent to entry of any judgment of such Third Party Claim shall require the prior written consent of the Indemnitee, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided, however, that no such consent shall be required as long as (a) it is solely a monetary settlement and does not implicate in any relief other than monetary damages to be paid in full by settling, compromising or discharging; (b) it could not reasonably result in the arising of other Claims or other proceedings that might result in Losses to the Buyers Indemnitee which are not covered by the indemnification obligations under this Agreement; or (c) it does not involve a material customer of any Buyers Indemnitee, unless otherwise reasonably demonstrated by the Company prior to the settlement.

Table of Contents

10.8.2. If the Indemnitor decides not to defend of the Third Party Claim or does not give notice of its intention to assume control over such defense within the requisite period of time specified in Section 10.8.1, the Indemnitee shall defend such Third Party Claim and the Indemnitor shall be required to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with such Third Party Claim, including defense costs, reasonable attorney fees, court costs, court deposit (depósitos judiciais) and/or granting of any guarantee or bond (fiança, caução ou seguro garantia), which will be considered a Loss subject to indemnification by the Indemnitor, regardless if the Third Party Claim is decided by the relevant Governmental Authority in favor or against the Indemnitee (provided the Third Party Claim relates to a potentially indemnifiable Loss pursuant to this Section 10); provided, that the Indemnitee shall: (a) use diligent and good faith efforts in its defense of such Third Party Claim; (b) perform all acts necessary to present any guarantees that are required to continue the defense of a Third Party Claim (in any case, at the Indemnitors expense), employing its reasonable best efforts so that such guarantee is either a pledge (fiança) or surety bond (seguro garantia), avoiding the need for an escrow (caução) or a court deposits (depósitos judiciais); (c) not settle such Third Party Claim without obtaining the written consent of the Indemnitor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. In such event, the Indemnitor shall reasonably cooperate with the Indemnitee in the defense and settlement of any Third Party Claim and make available to the Indemnitee all witnesses, pertinent records, materials and information in the Indemnitor’s possession or under the Indemnitor’s control relating thereto as is reasonably required by the Indemnitee. The Indemnitee shall not pay, or permit to be paid, any part of such Third Party Claim unless required to do so by Law or Order, or, if under a settlement discussion, unless the Indemnitor consents in writing to such payment.

10.8.3. With respect to Third Party Claims arising after Closing Date involving potential Losses that both the Indemnitor and Indemnitee are named as defendants, the Parties shall make good faith efforts to separate the proceedings of the respective Third Party Claim to allow each Party to control and conduct the defense of such Third Party Claims with respect to each own responsibility. In case such separation is not possible, the Party which is most exposed to the largest portion of the potential Loss (after considering the applicable indemnifications hereunder) shall control and conduct the defense of any such Third Party Claim with due regard to Sections 10.8.1 and 10.8.2 N otwithstanding the foregoing, the allocation of the liability of each Party for Losses arising from Third Party Claims that both Parties are named as defendants shall observe the provisions of Section 10.1 and Section 10.2 above.

10.8.4.1.

10.8.5. Should any amount paid by the Indemnitor as court deposit (depósitos judiciais), guarantee or bond (fiança, caução ou seguro garantia) and/or under a provisional enforcement (execução provisória) or otherwise in the course of a Third Party Claim be paid to the Indemnitee (including with respect to Third Party Claims existing prior to the Closing Date), the Indemnitee shall be required to return such amount in full to the Indemnitor within 5 Business Days from the date it was released to and received by the Indemnitee.
