employees, relevant trade unions, relevant works councils or any other employee representative body in relation to this Agreement and

the termination by any third party of any Assumed Contract as a result of the Transaction Documents or the consummation of the transactions
contemplated by the Transaction Documents, (b) make the benefit of any Non-Assignable Contract available to the Purchaser so long as the
Purchaser fully cooperates with the Seller and the Seller Subsidiaries and promptly reimburses the Seller and the Seller Subsidiaries for all
payments made by the Seller or the Seller Subsidiaries (with the prior written approval of the Purchaser) in connection therewith and (c) enforce,
