Except as specifically provided herein, this Amendment does not modify any of the information previously reported in the Schedule 13D.

 

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

As of March 23, 2010, certain affiliates of MUFG held in the aggregate 16,207,331 shares of Common Stock in a fiduciary capacity as the trustee of trust accounts or as the manager of investment funds, other investment vehicles and managed accounts.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction

Item 4 is amended by inserting the following new paragraph after paragraph E and redesignating paragraph F as paragraph G.

“F. Japan Joint Venture

On March 30, 2010, MUFG and the Company entered into definitive agreements formalizing their previously announced intention to form a joint venture in Japan of their respective investment banking and securities businesses. MUFG and the Company will integrate their respective Japanese securities companies by forming two joint venture companies. MUFG will contribute the wholesale and retail securities businesses conducted in Japan by its subsidiary Mitsubishi UFJ Securities Co., Ltd. into one of the joint venture entities which will be named Mitsubishi UFJ Morgan Stanley Securities, Co., Ltd. (“MUMSS”). The Company, on the other hand, will contribute the investment banking operations conducted in Japan by its subsidiary, Morgan Stanley Japan Securities Co., Ltd. (“MSJS”), into MUMSS and will contribute the sales and trading and capital markets business conducted in Japan by MSJS into a second joint venture entity which will be called Morgan Stanley MUFG Securities, Co., Ltd. (“MSMS” and, together with MUMSS, the “Joint Venture”). Following the respective contributions to the Joint Venture and a cash payment of 26 billion yen from MUFG to the Company at closing of the transaction (subject to certain post-closing cash adjustments), MUFG will own a 60% economic interest in the Joint Venture and the Company will own a 40% economic interest in the Joint Venture. MUFG will hold a 60% voting interest and the Company will hold a 40% voting interest in MUMSS, while MUFG will have a 49% voting interest and the Company will hold a 51% voting interest in MSMS. The transaction is expected to close on May 1, 2010 subject to customary closing conditions.

The board of directors of MUMSS will have fifteen members, nine of whom will be designated by MUFG and six of whom shall be designated by the Company. The board of directors of MSMS will have ten members, six of whom will be designated by the Company and four of whom will be designated by MUFG. MUFG and the Company will designate the CEOs of MUMSS and MSMS, respectively.”

Except as noted above, Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby incorporated by reference herein.

1


As of March 30, 2010, MUFG beneficially owns 357,017,088 shares of Common Stock, representing approximately 20.90% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company (assuming full conversion of all of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock held by MUFG at the Initial Conversion Price and further assuming no conversion of any other securities not beneficially owned by MUFG that are convertible or exchangeable into shares of Common Stock).

(c) Except as described herein, neither MUFG nor, to its knowledge, any of its directors or executive officers has engaged in any transactions in shares of the Company’s Common Stock in the past 60 days except transactions in a fiduciary capacity as described under Item 3.

(d) No other person is known by MUFG to have the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, any shares of the Company’s securities beneficially owned by MUFG.

The target net asset value of the MUS Contributed Business as at April 30, 2010 is JPY 303,700,000,000 and that of the MSJS Contributed Business is JPY 158,100,000,000 (in each case, such Party’s “Target Net Asset Value”). Each Party has prepared prior to the date of this Agreement its Interim Pro Forma Balance Sheet on a basis consistent with such Party’s Interim Financial Statements and in accordance with GAAP and the principles, assumptions and methodologies, and subject to the exceptions and limitations, set forth in Schedules 1.6(a)-1 and 1.6(a)-2, as applicable (its “Agreed Principles”). Such principles and methodologies shall, in relation to transfer pricing, be consistent with past practice, except as specified in its Agreed Principles.

(b) Net Asset Value at Closing. Each Party will use commercially best efforts to ensure that the net asset value at Closing of its Contributed Business is not less than its Target Net Asset Value. Each Party will ensure that a dividend or other distribution is paid from MUSBJ to MUSHD (in the case of MUFG) or MSJS to MSHD (in the case of MS) immediately prior to Closing of an amount by which the equity capital of MUSBJ or MSJS, as applicable, exceeds the greater of its Target Net Asset Value or an amount equal to 10% above its Minimum Required Tier 1 Capital as determined by such Party in good faith.

(d) Objection to Preliminary Closing Balance Sheet. In the event that, within sixty (60) days after delivery by one Party (the “Preparing Party”) to the other Party (the “Receiving Party”) of the Preparing Party’s Preliminary Closing Balance Sheet, such Receiving Party determines that the Preliminary Closing Balance Sheet received by it has not been prepared on a basis consistent with the requirements of Section 1.6(b), the Receiving Party shall have the right, within such sixty (60)-day period, to deliver a written objection (an “Objection”) to the Preparing Party, setting forth, in reasonable detail, the basis of the Objection and the adjustments which the Receiving Party believes should be made to such Preliminary Closing Balance Sheet, and the Receiving Party shall be deemed to have accepted any items not specifically disputed in the Objection; provided, that, within a period of thirty (30) days following a Preparing Party’s receipt of an Objection, the Preparing Party (in its capacity as the Receiving Party) shall have the right to deliver to the Receiving Party (in its capacity as the Preparing Party) a new or additional Objection, as the case may be, to the Receiving Party’s Preliminary Closing Balance Sheet that is based on similar arguments and is of the same type as the Receiving Party’s Objection to the Preparing Party’s Preliminary Closing Balance Sheet. The Parties shall then have sixty (60) days following the date the Preparing Party receives any Objection and the date the Receiving Party (in its capacity as the Preparing Party) receives an Objection from the Preparing Party (in its capacity as the Receiving Party), to review and respond to and resolve the Objection(s). If the Parties do not resolve all of their disagreements within the applicable sixty (60)-day period following delivery and receipt of the Objection(s), they shall refer their remaining differences to an internationally recognized firm of independent public accountants (the “Accounting Firm”), selected in accordance with Section 1.6(g), who shall, acting as experts in accounting and not as arbitrators, determine on a basis consistent with the requirements of Section 1.6(b), and only with respect to the specific remaining accounting-related differences set forth in the applicable Objection and so submitted to the Accounting Firm, whether and to what extent, if any, any relevant Preliminary Closing Balance Sheet requires adjustment in order to comply with the provisions of Section 1.6(b). In the event that Objections are pending with respect to both Preliminary Closing Balance Sheets, the Parties shall submit all such Objections to the Accounting Firm to be considered and resolved at the same time. The Parties shall request the Accounting Firm to use its best efforts to render its determination within sixty (60) days of its engagement. The Accounting Firm’s determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the Parties. The Parties shall, and shall cause MUMSS and MSMS to, make reasonably available to the Accounting Firm and to each other all relevant books and records, any work papers (including those of the Parties’ respective accountants) and supporting documentation relating to the Preliminary Closing Balance Sheets and all other items reasonably requested by the Accounting Firm or the other Party in connection herewith.

(e) Final Closing Balance Sheet. The “Final Closing Balance Sheet” of each Party’s Contributed Business shall be (i) the applicable Preliminary Closing Balance Sheet if (A) no Objection is delivered within the initial sixty (60)-day period (or, if applicable, the subsequent thirty (30)-day period) specified above or (B) the Parties so agree; (ii) the

 

9


applicable Preliminary Closing Balance Sheet, adjusted in accordance with the Objection, in the event that (A) the Preparing Party does not respond to the Objection within the sixty (60)-day period specified above following receipt of the Objection or (B) the Parties so agree; or (iii) the applicable Preliminary Closing Balance Sheet, as adjusted pursuant to the agreement of the Parties or as adjusted by the Accounting Firm as provided above.

(f) Adjustment Based on Final Closing Balance Sheet. Upon determination of both Final Closing Balance Sheets:

(i) MUS Net Asset Value Adjustment. If the net asset value reflected in the Final Closing Balance Sheet of the MUS Contributed Business is less than its Target Net Asset Value, then MUSHD shall owe to MSHD an amount equal to the MS Ownership Percentage multiplied by the amount of such deficiency, plus interest on such amount at the Agreed Interest Rate from the Closing Date through the date of payment. If the net asset value reflected in the Final Closing Balance Sheet of the MUS Contributed Business is more than its Target Net Asset Value, then MSHD shall owe to MUSHD an amount equal to the MS Ownership Percentage multiplied by such excess, plus interest on such amount at the Agreed Interest Rate from the Closing Date through the date of payment;

(ii) MSJS Net Asset Value Adjustment. If the net asset value reflected in the Final Closing Balance Sheet of the MSJS Contributed Business is less than its Target Net Asset Value, then MSHD shall owe to MUSHD an amount equal to the MUFG Ownership Percentage multiplied by the amount of such deficiency, plus interest on such amount at the Agreed Interest Rate from the Closing Date through the date of such payment. If the net asset value reflected in the Final Closing Balance Sheet of the MSJS Contributed Business is more than its Target Net Asset Value, then MUSHD shall owe to MSHD an amount equal to the MUFG Ownership Percentage multiplied by such excess, plus interest on such amount at the Agreed Interest Rate from the Closing Date through the date of such payment;

(iii) Setoff of Payments. The amounts owed by MSHD to MUSHD or by MUSHD to MSHD pursuant to the preceding clauses (i) and (ii) shall be set off against each other and MS shall pay to MUSHD (or cause MSHD to pay to MUSHD), or MUFG shall pay to MSHD (or cause MUSHD to pay to MSHD), as applicable, the net amount remaining after such setoffs in immediately available funds within three (3) Business Days after the determination of the last of the Final Closing Balance Sheets; and

(iv) Any payment required to be made to a Party pursuant to Section 1.3(d)(iv) or this Section 1.6 shall, to the extent possible, be effected in a manner that does not result in the recognition of income or gain to that Party or its Subsidiaries for Japanese or US Tax purposes.

(g) Selection of Accounting Firm. The Parties shall appoint an Accounting Firm reasonably acceptable to each of them, unaffiliated with either of them and not having been retained by either of them for audit services within the two (2)-year period prior to the Closing, to make the determinations described in Section 1.6(d). If the Parties fail to agree

 

10


upon an Accounting Firm within a reasonable period of time, then such Accounting Firm shall be appointed by the International Centre for Expertise in accordance with the provisions for the appointment of experts under the Rules for Expertise of the International Chamber of Commerce. The costs of any Accounting Firm appointed hereunder shall be shared equally by the Parties.

(h) Tax Refund Adjustment. If (1) there shall be any amount of Tax (or Liability in respect thereof) (A) paid prior to Closing by MSJS, or (B) by which the net asset value of the MSJS Contributed Business is reduced in MS’s Final Closing Balance Sheet (including through a reduction attributable to a reduction of deferred tax assets of MSJS due to such Tax), in each case by reason of an assessment or demand (or anticipated assessment or demand) for Tax by the Japanese tax authorities made or expected to be made as a result of the tax audit of MSJS referred to in the MS Disclosure Letter, and (2) MSMS shall subsequently receive a refund of or otherwise recover all or a portion of such Tax (for which purposes a refund or recovery shall include an increase in deferred tax assets of MSMS and any reversal of any accrual for such Tax in the financial statements of MSMS), then, within forty (40) Business Days of notice from MSMS to MUFG that it has received such refund or other recovery or such refund or recovery has occurred, in addition to the other payments provided for in this Section 1.6, MUFG shall cause MUSHD to pay to MSHD an amount equal to the MUFG Ownership Percentage multiplied by the amount of such refund or recovery (including any interest or premium paid or credited by any Governmental Authority thereon). Any payment made pursuant to this Section 1.6(h) shall be treated as a further adjustment (without interest) to any amount payable based on Final Closing Balance Sheets.

(i) Notwithstanding the proviso to the definition of Pre-Closing Liability, any Liability (a “Relevant Liability” and together “Relevant Liabilities”) incurred by MSMS due to the issue of any amended assessment by the Japanese tax authorities to Relevant Foreign Nationals (as defined in the MS Disclosure Letter) as a result of the tax audit of foreign nationals referred to in the MS Disclosure Letter shall be deemed to be an MSJS Pre-Closing Liability; provided, however, that if:

(i) a provision or accrual is made in respect of any Relevant Liability in MS’s Final Closing Balance Sheet; and

(ii) MSMS subsequently reverses any profit and loss expense related to such provision or accrual or otherwise recognizes income attributable to a refund received by it in respect of such expense,

then, within forty (40) Business Days of notice from MSMS to MUFG that such reversal or recognition has been made, in addition to any other payments provided for in this Section 1.6, MUFG shall cause MUSHD to pay to MSHD an amount equal to the MUFG Ownership Percentage multiplied by the amount of any such reversal or recognition (including any element representing any interest or premium paid or credited by any Governmental Authority on Taxes paid). Any payment pursuant to this Section 1.6(i) shall be treated as a further adjustment (without interest) to any amount payable based on the Final Closing Balance Sheets.

3.4 Action to Facilitate the Integration.

(a) Reasonable Best Efforts to Consummate Transactions. From the date hereof until the Closing, each Party shall use its reasonable best efforts to do or cause to be done all things necessary, proper or advisable, in accordance with Applicable Law, to consummate and make effective at the Closing the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and by the other Transaction Documents, and to cooperate with the other Party in good faith in connection with the foregoing, including:

(i) to obtain, and to cause its Subsidiaries to obtain prior to the Closing, any and all Governmental Approvals and Third Party Approvals required for the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and by the other Transaction Documents (including any Governmental Approvals and Third Party Approvals required to separate the Excluded Businesses);

(v) to do, and cause its Subsidiaries to do, all such other acts as are necessary or advisable in order to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Transaction Documents;

provided, that no Party shall be obligated to take any such action if it would alter or affect any of the substantive rights or obligations of such Party as contemplated by this Agreement or by the other Transaction Documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing (i), in the case of any Third Party Approval, in no event shall MUFG or MS be obligated to pay any money to any Person or to offer or grant other financial or other accommodations to any Person in connection with its obligations under this Section 3.4(a).

(b) Governmental Approvals for Transactions pursuant to the Transaction Documents. Without limiting the foregoing, between the date of this Agreement and the Closing, each Party shall file, or cause to be filed, as promptly as practicable, in each case in form and content in compliance with Applicable Law, each registration, report,

 

30


statement, notice, form, or other filing requested, required or desirable to be filed by any such Party or its Subsidiaries with any Governmental Authority or in order to obtain any Governmental Approvals required or desirable in order to complete the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents or for MUMSS or MSMS to conduct its business as contemplated in this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents.

(c) Filings; Cooperation. Subject to Applicable Law, each Party shall use reasonable best efforts to keep the other Party apprised of the status of any Governmental Approvals relating to the completion of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents or for MUMSS or MSMS to conduct its business as contemplated in this Agreement, the Shareholders Agreements or the other Transaction Documents and each Party shall coordinate and cooperate prior to the Closing with the other Party in exchanging such information and supplying such assistance as may be reasonably requested by the other Party in connection with any of the actions contemplated by this Section 3.4(c), including:

(i) cooperating with the other Party in connection with any filings or reports required to be made under the Banking Law, the Financial Instruments and Exchange Law, the Bank Holding Company Act, the Japan Anti Monopoly Act, or other antitrust, competition, trade, or securities regulations, or other Applicable Law, including, with respect to the Party making a filing, taking into account any reasonable objections of the other Party with respect to making such a filing and, where desirable, providing a draft of a proposed filing, communication or application and inviting representatives of the other Party to participate in communications with the relevant Governmental Authority;

(ii) furnishing to the other Party (or, if the Party reasonably believes that such information is commercially sensitive, the advisers to the other Party on the basis that such information will not be provided to the other Party) all information required for any such application or filing with a Governmental Authority;

(iii) promptly notifying the other Party of, and furnishing the other Party with copies of, any material written communications from or with any Governmental Authority with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby; and

(iv) regularly reviewing with the other Party the progress of any notifications or filings (including, where necessary, seeking to identify appropriate means to address any regulatory or antitrust concerns identified by any Governmental Authority) and discussing with the other Party tactics for obtaining clearance from the Governmental Authority at the earliest reasonable opportunity.

(d) Conditional Regulatory Approvals. If any Governmental Approval required for fulfillment of any of the Closing conditions contained in Section 5.2, in the case of MUFG, and Section 5.1, in the case of MS, is granted subject to any condition, term or undertaking to be given by MUFG, MS, MUMSS or MSMS, such Governmental Approval shall be deemed to fulfill the Closing condition if that condition, term or undertaking is not (i) in the reasonable mutual opinion of the Parties, unduly and materially

 

31


onerous to MUMSS, MSMS or any Affiliate of MUMSS or MSMS after Closing, (ii) in the reasonable opinion of MUFG, unduly and materially onerous to MUFG or any Affiliate of MUFG either before or after Closing, or (iii) in the reasonable opinion of MS, unduly and materially onerous to MS or any Affiliate of MS either before or after Closing. In such circumstances, MUMSS or MSMS or, if applicable, MUFG or MS, and any relevant Affiliate of any of them shall give any such undertaking in the form required by the Governmental Authority. MS and MUFG shall discuss in good faith to agree whether or not this Section 3.4(d) applies in respect of any such condition, term or undertaking and, if it does not apply, to agree on an alternative proposal to fulfill the relevant Closing condition as promptly as is reasonably practicable in order to implement the Closing as far as practicable on the same terms as otherwise contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents.

(e) Failure of Condition; Notification; Updated Disclosure Letter.

(i) At all times prior to the Closing Date, each Party shall promptly notify the other Party in writing of any fact, condition, event or occurrence that would reasonably be expected to result in the failure of any of the conditions contained in Section 5.2, in the case of MUFG, and Section 5.1, in the case of MS, promptly upon becoming aware of the same.

(ii) In the event that Closing is scheduled to occur after May 1, 2010, then no later than fifteen (15) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, each Party shall update and supplement in good faith its initial Disclosure Letter (each, an “Updated Disclosure Letter”), and deliver its Updated Disclosure Letter to the other Party, with respect to any matter not existing or, to the extent that a representation or warranty is qualified by a reference to the knowledge of such Party, not known as of the date of this Agreement which, if existing or known by such Party as of the date of this Agreement, would have been required to be set forth or described in such Party’s initial Disclosure Letter. Such Party’s Updated Disclosure Letter (together with the initial Disclosure Letter) shall be deemed to have qualified the Closing Warranties, except for Section 2.1(g)(v)(A) (No MAE Since Balance Sheet Date), made in this Agreement for purposes of determining whether or not the conditions set forth in Section 5.2(a), in the case of MUFG, or 5.1(a), in the case of MS, have been satisfied as of the Closing Date, but not for purposes of determining whether or not any other conditions set forth in Section 5.2, in the case of MUFG, or 5.1, in the case of MS, have been satisfied. (For the avoidance of doubt, no matter disclosed in the Updated Disclosure Letter shall qualify Section 2.1(g)(v)(A) (No MAE Since Balance Sheet Date) for any purposes in connection with this Agreement.) Such Party’s Updated Disclosure Letter shall be deemed not to have been disclosed for purposes of qualifying any representations and warranties made in or pursuant to this Agreement as of the Closing Date for purposes of determining whether the other Party (including its related Indemnitees) is entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 6.2(a) (it being understood that all such representations and warranties set forth in Article II are being remade as of the Closing Date for purposes of Section 6.2(a)).

(f) Legal Developments. Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.4, if (i) an Applicable Law is enacted or (ii) a Governmental Authority issues, or

 

32


seeks the issuance of, an Order of the type that would cause any of the Closing conditions set forth in Sections 5.1(d) and 5.2(d) not to be satisfied, the Parties shall, and shall cause their respective Subsidiaries to, use their reasonable best efforts to obtain the elimination of, or exemption from, such Applicable Law or the lifting, withdrawal or termination of such Order or the termination of the efforts by such Governmental Authority to obtain the issuance of such an Order at the earliest practicable time and/or to negotiate in good faith to implement alternative arrangements that will permit the Closing and the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Transaction Documents to be consummated without a violation of such Applicable Law or Order and without altering in any material respect the rights or obligations of the Parties under this Agreement or any other Transaction Document.

(g) Excluded Liabilities, Consents and Approvals. Prior to and after the Closing, each Party, at the request of the other, shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain, or to cause to be obtained, any Consent, substitution, approval or amendment required to novate or assign all obligations under agreements, leases, licenses and other Liabilities of any nature whatsoever that constitute Excluded Liabilities, or to obtain in writing the unconditional release of all parties to such arrangements so that, in any such case, neither MUMSS nor MSMS will have any liability or responsibility for such Liabilities; provided, however, that no Party shall be obligated to pay any consideration therefor to any Third Party (who is not a Subsidiary or Affiliate of such Party) from whom such Consents, approvals, substitutions and amendments are requested provided that MS will not seek to assign rights and obligations in respect of the Retained Securitization Product set forth in Table 1 of Schedule 1.2(b) and will not seek consent with respect thereto. If the applicable Party is unable to obtain, or to cause to be obtained, any such required Consent, approval, release, substitution or amendment, it shall continue to pay, perform and discharge fully all such Liabilities and shall indemnify MUMSS, MSMS, the other Party and the Indemnitees in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, if either Party is unable to obtain, or cause to be obtained, any such required Consent, approval, release, substitution or amendment or any Consent, approval or amendment required to assign or transfer any Excluded Asset prior to Closing despite such Party’s reasonable best efforts to do so, such failure shall not be treated as or constitute a breach of any provision of this Agreement.

(h) Retained Securitization Products. MS shall transfer or shall have transferred the economic interest in all Retained Securitization Products out of MSJS prior to the Closing by either (i) having MS or an Affiliate of MS enter into a total return swap in a customary form with MSJS in respect of such Retained Securitization Product such that any gains or losses in the values of such Retained Securitization Products relative to their values on the date on which the total return swap was or is entered into is or will be for the account of MS, and/or (ii) by assigning the economic rights and benefits of such Retained Securitization Products to an Affiliate of MS or a Third Party by way of an assignment, sub-participation arrangement or otherwise.

(i) Specific Obligations. To the extent that the form of any documents required to implement the MUFG Pre-Closing Reorganization or the MS Pre-Closing Reorganization are not attached as Exhibits to this Agreement, MUFG or MS

 

33


(respectively) shall each consult with the other in advance of any material step proposed to be taken as part of such Pre-Closing Reorganization and shall provide the other in advance drafts of any material documents relevant to the implementation of such Pre-Closing Reorganization, in each case in sufficient time to enable the other adequately to consider and comment thereon, to the extent that such document is not consistent with any terms in respect of such document set forth in the Exhibits to this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement, the Shareholders Agreements and the other Transaction Documents.

(j) Contribution in Error. To the extent that, after the Closing, MUMSS, MSMS or either Party and/or any of its Affiliates discovers that an Asset or Liability was erroneously included as a Contributed Asset or Contributed Liability, as applicable: (i) MUMSS or MSMS, as applicable, shall transfer such Asset to the applicable transferor thereof in exchange for a payment by such transferor of an amount in cash equal to the reported value (if any) of such Asset on the applicable Final Closing Balance Sheet or (ii) MUMSS or MSMS, as applicable, shall, subject to Section 3.4(g), transfer such Liability to the applicable transferor thereof and shall make a payment to such transferor of an amount in cash equal to the reported value of such Liability on the applicable Final Closing Balance Sheet.

(k) Exclusion in Error. To the extent that, after the Closing, MUMSS, MSMS or either Party and/or any of its Affiliates discovers an Asset or Liability that should have been included as a Contributed Asset or Contributed Liability (including as necessary to make the representations set forth in Sections 2.1(j) (Assets; Services; Title) and Section 2.1(s)(iii) (IP Sufficiency) accurate): (i) the Party that should have transferred or procured the transfer of such Asset shall transfer or procure the transfer of such Asset to MUMSS or MSMS, as applicable, and in exchange receive a payment from MUMSS or MSMS, as applicable, of an amount in cash equal to the value of such Asset as of the Closing Date (as initially determined in good faith by MUMSS or MSMS, as applicable, and notified to both Parties) as if it had been included in the applicable Final Closing Balance Sheet or (ii) the Party that should have transferred or procured the transfer of such Liability shall, subject to Section 3.4(g), transfer or procure the transfer of such Liability to MUMSS or MSMS, as applicable, and such Party shall pay to MUMSS or MSMS, as applicable, an amount in cash equal to the value of such Liability as of the Closing Date (as agreed between MUMSS or MSMS, as applicable, and such Party) as if it had been included in the applicable Final Closing Balance Sheet; provided, that any disagreement between the Parties as to the value of any such Asset or Liability shall be resolved by following the procedures set forth in Section 1.6.

(l) Additional Post-Closing Assurances. Following the Closing Date, each Party shall, and shall cause each of its Affiliates to, from time to time, execute and deliver such additional instruments, documents, conveyances or assurances and take such other actions as shall be necessary, or otherwise reasonably be requested by MUMSS, MSMS or the other Party, to confirm and assure the rights and obligations provided for in the Transaction Documents and render effective the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, or otherwise to carry out the intent and purposes of the Transaction Documents.

 

34


3.5 Non-Solicitation of Employees. Each Party agrees that between the date of this Agreement and Closing, neither it nor any of its Affiliates shall employ or solicit in order to offer to employ, directly or indirectly, any employee of its Contributed Business, MUMSS or MSMS, as applicable, provided however that engaging or hiring of an employee will not be considered a violation of this Section 3.5 if (a) it is contemplated under this Agreement as part of a Pre-Closing Reorganization, (b) it is the return of a seconded employee to the seconding entity or secondment to an Affiliate, in each case in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice, (c) it involves only general solicitation of employment not specifically directed toward personnel employed in its Contributed Business or either Company, or (d) the employment relationship between the relevant Company and the employee was terminated at least three (3) months prior to the commencement of employment discussions between the relevant Party and such employee, or (e) the employee contacted the relevant Party entirely on his or her own initiative and without any direct or indirect solicitation by relevant Party.

3.6 Tax Matters.

(a) Cooperation. Each of MUFG, MS, MUMSS and MSMS shall reasonably cooperate, and shall cause their respective Affiliates, officers, employees, agents, auditors and representatives to reasonably cooperate, with respect to Tax matters. MUFG, MS, MUMSS and MSMS agree to furnish or cause to be furnished to each other, upon request, as promptly as practicable, such information and assistance relating to the Contributed Businesses as is reasonably necessary for the filing of any Tax Return, the preparation for any audit and the prosecution or defense of any Claim relating to any proposed adjustment, in each case, with respect to a Pre-Closing Tax Period or a Straddle Period. The Parties shall reasonably cooperate to (i) identify all Tax-related information with respect to the Contributed Businesses that is held by MUFG, MS or their respective Affiliates and is reasonably necessary for the preparation of any Tax Return of MUMSS or MSMS, (ii) agree on the format in which such documentation will be provided to MUMSS or MSMS, as applicable, and (iii) take all actions reasonably necessary to transfer such information to MUMSS or MSMS, as applicable, at the Closing.

(b) Transfer Taxes. Any consumption, excise, sales, use, transfer, Real Property transfer, documentary, stamp or similar Taxes (“Transfer Taxes”) resulting from the transfer of the Contributed Assets to MUMSS or MSMS, as applicable, and the transactions described in Section 1.6 shall be borne by the Party or its Contributing Subsidiary that is responsible or otherwise liable therefor under Applicable Law. Except as otherwise provided in the Transaction Documents (other than this Agreement) with respect to the transactions contemplated thereby, all other Transfer Taxes arising from the transactions contemplated in this Agreement shall be the responsibility of the Party that incurs such Tax. The Parties shall reasonably cooperate to minimize the aggregate amount of Transfer Taxes.

3.7 Actions by Subsidiaries. Each of MUFG and MS shall ensure that each of its respective Subsidiaries takes all actions necessary to be taken by such Subsidiaries in order to fulfill the obligations of MUFG and MS, as the case may be, hereunder. From the date of this Agreement until the Closing, MUFG will not permit MUMSS to engage in any activities or incur any Liabilities other than in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

 

35


3.8 Negotiations with Others. Until the Closing or the earlier termination of this Agreement, each of MUFG and MS will not and will cause each of its respective Subsidiaries and representatives, as the case may be, not to, directly or indirectly, without the prior written Consent of the other, initiate discussions or engage in negotiations concerning, or discuss, with any Person other than the other Party hereto and its representatives, any proposal (a) that is reasonably likely to prevent or materially delay the consummation of or otherwise have a Material Adverse Effect on the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents, including proposals regarding the acquisition of, or joint venture with respect to, all or part of the MUS Contributed Assets or the MUS Contributed Business, or the MSJS Contributed Assets or the MSJS Contributed Business, as the case may be or (b) that would involve the direct or indirect acquisition by MUS or MSJS or their respective Affiliates of an interest greater than 15% in, or their entering into a joint venture with respect to, a Securities Company in Japan.

The failure of any representation or warranty to be true and correct when made (or when deemed to be made) by the Indemnitor in this Agreement, and the failure of any Closing Warranty that was true and correct when made by the Indemnitor in this Agreement to continue to be true and correct as of the Closing (or as of such other date as is expressly specified in such representation and warranty as the date at which such representation and warranty is true) as if such representation and warranty were made again at the Closing (or such other specified date) (in each case, without giving effect to any limitation as to “materiality” or “Material Adverse Effect” or similar qualification set forth therein). For purposes of this Section 6.2(a), the representations and warranties of each of MUFG and MS set forth in Article II of this Agreement shall be deemed made to and in favor of each Company as of the date of this Agreement, and the Closing Warranties shall be deemed made to and in favor of each Company also on and as of the Closing Date (except to the extent that any such Closing Warranty expressly speaks as of an earlier date, in which case such Closing Warranty shall be deemed made on and as of such earlier date);

(b) Breach of Covenant or Agreement. The failure by the Indemnitor or any of its Subsidiaries to perform any of its or their covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement (including any failure to comply with any provision hereof or any failure to satisfy any Liability assumed or retained by such Indemnitor or its Subsidiaries); or

(c) Excluded Liabilities. In the case of MUFG as Indemnitor, the MUS Excluded Liabilities (including any and all Liabilities deemed to be owed by MUMSS by virtue of law arising out of or in connection with the MUS Excluded Liabilities), and in the case of MS as Indemnitor, the MSJS Excluded Liabilities (including any and all Liabilities deemed to be owed by MSMS by virtue of law arising out of or in connection with the MSJS Excluded Liabilities).

(d) Pre-Closing Liabilities. In the case of MUFG as Indemnitor, the MUS Pre-Closing Liabilities, and in the case of MS as Indemnitor, the MSJS Pre-Closing Liabilities.

6.3 Other Indemnification.

(a) Tax. Each Indemnitor shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Indemnitees, from and against any Losses incurred by an Indemnitee arising out of or in connection with unpaid Taxes relating to the Indemnitor’s Contributed Business accruing as to any period prior to Closing, including between the date of its Interim Pro Forma Financial Statements and Closing except to the extent provided for in the Final Closing Balance Sheet.

(b) Other. Each Indemnitor shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Indemnitees, from and against any Losses incurred by an Indemnitee arising out of any asbestos, polychlorinated biphenyl, or radioactive materials present at Closing at any of such Indemnitor’s Contributed Leased Real Property or Contributed Real Property.

 

40


6.4 Limitations on Amounts.

(a) Thresholds. An Indemnitor shall have no Liability under Section 6.2(a), 6.2(d) and 6.3:

(i) for any Loss or series of related Losses unless the amount thereof exceeds ¥100,000,000 (each, a “De Minimis Loss”); and

(ii) until the amount of Losses (other than any De Minimis Losses) that would be subject to indemnification by the Indemnitor but for this sentence exceeds an aggregate amount equal to ¥1,000,000,000 (the “Deductible”);

in which case the Indemnitees shall be entitled to indemnification of all Losses in excess of the Deductible (other than any De Minimis Losses).

(b) Indemnification Liability Capped. An Indemnitor’s aggregate Liability under Section 6.2(a), 6.2(b), 6.2(d) and 6.3 shall in no event exceed ¥150 billion.

6.5 Other Indemnification Provisions.

(a) Amount of Loss. For purposes of Section 6.2(a), the amount of Losses arising out of any breach of a representation or warranty shall be determined without regard to qualifications of materiality or Material Adverse Effect or similar qualifications (other than specified dollar thresholds) and without regard to whether the matter giving rise to such Losses was disclosed to the other Party (or its representatives) (other than in the applicable Disclosure Letter). The representations and warranties contained in Article II and the rights and remedies that may be exercised by any Person seeking indemnification hereunder, shall not be limited or otherwise affected by or as a result of any information furnished to, or any investigation made by, any such Person or its representatives.

(b) Limitation on Damages. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article VI, no Indemnitor shall be liable for any indirect, special, consequential, exemplary or punitive damages related to or arising in connection with any indemnification in this Article VI, except in cases where such damages are recovered from an Indemnitee by a Third Party. In no event shall any Indemnitee recover more than once for any Loss, regardless of whether alternative theories of recovery exist under this Agreement or Applicable Law.

(c) Exclusive Remedy. This Article VI sets forth the Parties’ exclusive remedy, following the Closing, for any Loss that may result from the breach of any of the representations or warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement or any other matter arising under this Agreement, except for Losses resulting from fraud of an Indemnitor or its Affiliates.

 

41


(d) Valuation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no Indemnitor shall be required to indemnify any Party (or its Affiliates) for any Loss relating to a reduction in the value of a Contributed Business to the extent such Loss was provided for or accrued in the Final Closing Balance Sheet or a reduction in value of either Company to the extent that such Company has been held harmless therefor in accordance with the terms hereof.

(e) Distribution of Subsequent Awards. If any Indemnitee receives any amounts in respect of Losses previously paid by the Indemnitor or obtains any judgment or award in any litigation relating to an Excluded Liability or Excluded Claim of such Indemnitor which was previously paid by such Indemnitor, the Indemnitee shall distribute such amounts received to the Indemnitor. Any Losses shall be net of any (i) amounts actually recovered by any Indemnitee under applicable insurance policies and (ii) Tax benefits actually realized by any Indemnitee by reason of the incurrence or payment of any such Losses, and shall be increased by any Tax costs incurred by any Indemnitee as a result of the receipt of the indemnification payment.

(f) Other Indemnification Agreements. This Agreement shall not be deemed to amend or otherwise modify the provisions or application of any indemnification or similar agreement between (i) any broker or other employee of a Party, any of its Subsidiaries or either Company, and (ii) such Party, any of its Subsidiaries, or either Company. In addition, notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, nothing in this Agreement shall (A) require the Indemnitor to indemnify the brokers or other employees of the Indemnitor, any of its Subsidiaries, MUMSS or MSMS, or (B) be deemed to waive any right of the Indemnitor to receive reimbursement from such brokers or other employees for, among other things, Losses caused by their criminal conduct, willful misconduct or bad faith.

(g) Mitigation. Each Indemnitee must use reasonable efforts to mitigate any Loss for which such Indemnitee seeks indemnification under this Agreement.

(h) Claims by MUFG or MS on behalf of the Companies. If MUFG becomes aware of any Loss for which MUMSS or MSMS may be entitled to seek indemnification from MS under this Agreement, MUFG shall be entitled to seek such indemnification on behalf of such Company and may exercise or cause to be exercised all of the rights of such Company with respect to such Loss as if MUFG were the Indemnitee with respect to such Loss; provided, that any amounts recovered from MS with respect to such Loss shall be paid to such Company. If MS becomes aware of any Loss for which MUMSS or MSMS may be entitled to seek indemnification from MUFG under this Agreement, MS shall be entitled to seek such indemnification on behalf of such Company and may exercise or cause to be exercised all of the rights of such Company with respect to such Loss as if MS were the Indemnitee with respect to such Loss; provided, that any amounts recovered from MUFG with respect to such Loss shall be paid to such Company.

6.6 Procedures. In the event any Indemnitee should have a Claim under this Article VI against any Indemnitor that does not involve a Claim being asserted against or sought to be collected from such Indemnitee by a Third Party, the Indemnitee shall deliver reasonably prompt

 

42


notice of such Claim, specifying in reasonable detail the basis therefor, to the Indemnitor. The failure or delay by any Indemnitee to so notify the Indemnitor shall not relieve the Indemnitor from any Liability which it may have to such Indemnitee, except to the extent that the Indemnitor has been actually prejudiced by such failure or delay. If the Indemnitor does not notify the Indemnitee within sixty (60) Business Days following its receipt of such notice that the Indemnitor disputes its Liability to the Indemnitee, such Claims specified by the Indemnitee in such notice shall be conclusively deemed a Liability of the Indemnitor, and the Indemnitor shall pay the amount of such Liability to the Indemnitee on demand or, in the case of any notice in which the amount of the Claims (or any portion thereof) is estimated, on such later date when the amount of such Claim (or such portion thereof) becomes finally determined.

6.7 Procedures for Non-Party Claims. The following procedures shall apply to all matters or circumstances that may result in a Loss by reason of a Claim brought by a Third Party, including any Claim asserted by a Governmental Authority (“Non-Party Claims,” including any Claim asserted by an employee of a Party, such Party’s Subsidiary or either Company):

(a) Notice. Promptly after an Indemnitee receives written notice of any matter or circumstance that may reasonably be expected to result in a Loss to such Indemnitee by reason of a Non-Party Claim, the Indemnitee shall give written notice thereof to the Indemnitor. The right to indemnification hereunder will not be affected by any failure of an Indemnitee to give such notice (or delay by any Indemnitee in giving such notice) unless (and then only to the extent that) the rights and remedies of the Indemnitor have been actually prejudiced as a result of the failure to give, or the delay in giving, such notice. The notice of the Non-Party Claim shall describe the Non-Party Claim in reasonable detail.

(b) Control of Non-Party Claims. Subject in all cases to Section 6.6 and except for Pre-Closing Litigation referred to in Section 6.7(f), which shall be administered in accordance with that section, the Indemnitor shall be entitled, at its election, to control the defense of such Non-Party Claim (the “Controlling Party”) and if the Indemnitor so elects, it shall: (i) retain counsel of its own choosing, which counsel shall be reasonably acceptable to the Indemnitee; (ii) control and direct the defense of any such Non-Party Claim, including the development and implementation of legal strategy for such Non-Party Claim, subject to Section 6.7(c); and (iii) pay, and indemnify the Indemnitee against, any costs or expenses incurred in such defense (whether or not such defense is wholly or partially successful).

(c) Settlements. No Party shall have any Liability for any settlement or compromise effected without its Consent, which Consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. No Controlling Party may effect any settlement or compromise unless the Indemnitee has no Liability in connection therewith which is not fully satisfied by the Controlling Party.

(d) Conflicts of Interest. The Indemnitee in respect of any Claim shall be entitled to engage separate counsel of its choice to participate in the defense of such Claim; provided, that, except as set forth in the remainder of this Section 6.7(d), the fees and expenses of such separate counsel shall be borne solely by the Indemnitee and shall not be subject to reimbursement by the Indemnitor; and provided, further, that this sentence shall

 

43


not affect, in any respect, the control of such Claim as provided in Section 6.7(b). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the defendants in a Claim include both an Indemnitee and the Indemnitor, and counsel to the Indemnitee (or, if the Indemnitee is the Controlling Party, counsel to the Indemnitor) shall have reasonably concluded that joint representation would be inappropriate due to potential or actual conflicts of interest between the Controlling Party, the Indemnitor and/or the Indemnitee, the Indemnitee shall have the right to retain a single firm of separate counsel reasonably acceptable to the Controlling Party (and, if the Company is the Controlling Party, the Indemnitor) (each of which shall be timely sought and shall not be unreasonably withheld) to participate in the defense of that Claim on behalf of such Indemnitee and at the expense of the Indemnitor.

(e) Status. The Controlling Party shall at the request of the Indemnitee from time to time notify the Indemnitee regarding the status, including any significant developments, with respect to Non-Party Claims the defense of which is being conducted by the Controlling Party on behalf of an Indemnitee (or the Indemnitor, as the case may be).

(f) Pre-Closing Litigation. Without limiting any other provision in this Agreement, the Parties agree that (i) each Party shall remain responsible for, and control, all litigation with respect to its Contributed Business and Contributing Subsidiaries pending or threatened in writing prior to the Closing, including any Claims pending or threatened in writing by a Party as plaintiff relating to its Contributed Business and Contributing Subsidiaries (the “Pre-Closing Litigation”) (which Claims such Party shall continue to prosecute and shall use good faith efforts to obtain a favorable judgment or settlement), and (ii) no Pre-Closing Litigation shall be the responsibility of either Company, which shall be treated as an Indemnitee for purposes of Article VI with respect to all such litigation (it being understood that any settlement of any Claim being pursued as plaintiff will not be settled without the Consent of such Company (which Consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) if such settlement would impair the value of any Contributed Asset in any respect and any proceeds of any such settlement with respect to any Contributed Asset shall be paid over to the applicable Company).

6.8 Mutual Assistance. The Indemnitor and Indemnitee shall reasonably cooperate with each other in the defense of any Claim subject to indemnity pursuant to this Article VI and with respect to any Pre-Closing Litigation. Without limiting the foregoing, after the Closing, MUFG agrees that it will, and that it will cause its Affiliates to; MS agrees that it will, and will cause its Affiliates to; and the Parties agree that they will cause the Companies to (i) cooperate with each of the Parties and their Subsidiaries and the Companies and its Subsidiaries, (ii) generally seek to avoid the imposition of regulatory sanctions on the Parties or their Subsidiaries and the Companies or their Subsidiaries to the extent reasonable under the circumstances and (iii) furnish to each of them access to such employees and other Persons under their control, and such information, documents, records, evidence, testimony and other assistance as any of them may reasonably request, in connection with any Claims, arrangements or disputes of any nature involving or affecting the Companies that reasonably relate to matters that occurred prior to the Closing and in which any of them, as the case may be, was involved or for which such Person has records, information or knowledge. The reasonable expenses incurred by any Person in complying with any request for cooperation pursuant to this Section 6.8 shall be borne by the Indemnitor or

 

44


other Person requesting such cooperation; provided, however, that such expenses shall not include incidental time incurred by employees of any Party responding to such a request for cooperation. The Parties shall cause the Companies to assist, service and otherwise support any Pre-Closing Litigation.

ARTICLE VII

TERM AND TERMINATION

7.1 Termination. This Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the Closing:

(a) by mutual written Consent of the Parties at any time;

(b) by either Party upon written notice to the other Party in the event that any Governmental Authority has issued an Order (i) denying a Governmental Approval required as a condition to Closing under Section 5.1(e) or 5.2(e) or (ii) causing the conditions set forth in Section 5.1(d) (in the case of MUFG) or 5.2(d) (in the case of MS) not to be satisfied, and in either case such Order shall have become final and non-appealable;

(c) by either Party, upon written notice to the other Party, at any time after 5:00 p.m., Japan time, on December 31, 2010, in the event that the Closing shall not have occurred on or prior to such time; provided, however, that such date shall be extended by an additional ninety (90) days if (i) the conditions set forth in Section 5.1(e) or 5.2(e) shall not have been satisfied prior to such date and time, and (ii) all other conditions to Closing in this Agreement have been satisfied or waived; provided, further, that a Party may not give notice under this Section 7.1(c) if a condition to the other Party’s obligation to proceed to Closing has not been fulfilled due to such Party’s breach of a material covenant, obligation or agreement in this Agreement; or

(d) by either Party, upon written notice to the other Party, if (i) there has been a material misrepresentation or breach of warranty or covenant or agreement made or to be performed by or on the part of such other Party pursuant to this Agreement, (ii) such misrepresentation or breach has not been or cannot be cured within a period of sixty (60) days following the delivery of written notice to such other Party of such misrepresentation or breach, and (iii) the effect of such misrepresentation or breach is to prevent the satisfaction of a condition specified in Sections 5.1(a) or 5.1(b) (in the case of MUFG) or Sections 5.2(a) or 5.2(b) (in the case of MS).

7.2 Effect of Termination. If this Agreement is terminated in accordance with Section 7.1, no covenants, agreements, representations or warranties contained herein shall survive the termination of this Agreement except (a) Article VIII and (b) those provisions that by their express terms survive such termination; provided, however, that no termination of this Agreement shall release a breaching Party from any Liability with respect to any breach of this Agreement occurring prior to such termination.

 

45


ARTICLE VIII

MISCELLANEOUS

8.1 General Escalation Procedure. Prior to commencing any arbitration proceedings as provided in Section 8.2 the Parties will attempt to resolve any dispute arising out of this Agreement, including the breach, termination or invalidity thereof (a “Dispute”) through good faith negotiations, as follows:

(a) either Party may send written notice to the other with a copy to MSMS or MUMSS as appropriate, specifying the nature of the Dispute in reasonable detail and requesting negotiations in respect of such Dispute;

(b) for a period of twenty (20) Business Days after the receipt of any such notice, the Parties shall discuss the Dispute in an effort to resolve it; and

(c) failing resolution of such Dispute within the twenty (20) Business Day period referred to in Section 8.1(b), the representatives of either Party may promptly submit a written statement of the Dispute to the respective CEOs of MUFG and MS for joint resolution by them;

(d) failing resolution of a Dispute within twenty (20) Business Days after the submission of a written statement as referred to in Section 8.1(c), the Dispute shall be finally resolved by binding arbitration in accordance with Section 8.2.

8.2 Arbitration.

(a) Arbitration; Rules; Location. Except as provided in Section 8.1, any Dispute shall be referred to and finally determined under the Rules of Arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce then in effect (the “ICC Rules”). The place of arbitration shall be Tokyo, Japan.

(b) Arbitrators. There shall be three arbitrators. Two arbitrators shall be nominated by the Parties, with each Party nominating one arbitrator, in accordance with the ICC Rules. If a Party fails to nominate an arbitrator within the time limits set by the ICC Rules, the International Court of Arbitration (“ICC Court”) shall appoint an arbitrator for that Party. The third arbitrator, who will act as chairperson of the arbitral tribunal, shall be nominated by the other two arbitrators. If the two arbitrators are unable to agree on the nomination of the chairperson within thirty (30) days after the appointment of the second arbitrator, then the ICC Court shall appoint the chairperson forthwith. Each arbitrator on the arbitral tribunal shall be disinterested in the dispute and shall have no connection to either Party, and shall be fluent in English. The arbitrators shall not be required to be admitted to practice law in Japan.

(c) Award. The arbitral award shall be in writing, state the reasons for the award, and be the sole and exclusive binding remedy between and among the Parties. Judgment on the award rendered may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, the Parties hereby waive any right to refer any

 

46


question of law and their right of appeal on the law and/or merits to any court, except as provided by the Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards of 1958. For purposes of such convention, the award shall be deemed an award of Japan, the relationship between the Parties shall be deemed commercial in nature, and any Disputes shall be deemed commercial.

(d) Language of Proceedings. The language of the arbitral proceedings shall be English and all documents not in English submitted by any Party shall be accompanied by a translation into English prepared at the expense of the party producing the document.

(e) Confidentiality of Proceedings. The Parties agree that any arbitration hereunder shall be kept confidential, and that the existence of the proceeding and all of its elements (including any pleadings, briefs or other documents submitted or exchanged, any testimony or other oral submissions, and any awards) shall be deemed Confidential Information for purposes hereof, and shall not be disclosed beyond the tribunal, the ICC Court, the Parties, their counsel, and any person necessary to the conduct of the proceeding, except as and to the extent required to enforce any arbitral award, or as otherwise contemplated in Section 3.3(b).

(f) Equitable and Provisional Relief. Each of the Parties acknowledges and agrees that any breach by it of any provision of this Agreement would irreparably injure the other Party and that money damages would be an inadequate remedy therefor. Accordingly, each Party agrees that, in addition to any money damages, the other Party shall be entitled to one or more injunctions enjoining any such breach and requiring specific performance of this Agreement and consents to the entry thereof. In addition, nothing in this Section 8.2 or otherwise shall be construed as preventing either Party from seeking an interim injunction or any similar equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction.

(g) Limitations on Damages. In no event shall a Party have any liability to the other Party for such other Party’s loss of profits, revenue or goodwill, loss or interruption of business, loss of data, or for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the subject matter hereof, no matter what theory of liability, and even if advised of the possibility or probability of such damages.

(h) Expenses. Each party to a Dispute shall bear its own legal fees and costs in connection therewith.

8.3 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the internal laws of Japan, without giving effect to its choice of law rules.

8.4 Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under Applicable Law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be prohibited by or invalid or unenforceable in any respect under Applicable Law, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition, invalidity or unenforceability, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the

 

47


remaining provisions of this Agreement and the Parties shall use all reasonable efforts to replace it in that respect with a valid and enforceable substitute provision the effect of which is as close to its intended effect as possible.

8.5 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, including the Appendices, Exhibits and Schedules hereto and the Disclosure Letters delivered herewith, which are expressly incorporated herein by this reference, together with the other Transaction Documents, contain the entire agreement between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, oral or written, between the Parties with respect to such subject matter. No Party shall have any claim or remedy in respect of any representation, inducement, promise, understanding, condition or warranty not set forth in this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents. Except for any liability in respect of breach of this Agreement or fraud, neither Party shall owe any duty of care or have any liability in tort or otherwise to the other Party.

8.6 Language. This Agreement is entered into in the English language; provided that each Party’s Schedules attached hereto and Disclosure Letter may be in the Japanese language to the extent not available in the English language. In the event of any dispute concerning the construction or meaning of this Agreement, the text of the Agreement as written in the English language shall prevail over any translation of this Agreement that may have been made.

8.7 No Amendments. This Agreement may not be amended or modified except by a written instrument, expressly referring to this Agreement, and signed by each of the Parties.

8.8 No Waivers. No waiver of any term or provision of this Agreement shall be effective unless it is in writing and is signed by the Party against which it is asserted. Neither the failure nor any delay by any Person in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver of such right, power or privilege, and no single or partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege shall preclude any other or further exercise of such right, power or privilege or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.

8.9 No Assignments. Neither Party shall assign, or suffer or permit an assignment (by operation of law or otherwise) of, its rights or obligations under or interest in this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other Party. Any purported assignment or other disposition by a Party shall be null and void. For purposes of this Section 8.9, the terms “assign” and “assignment” shall be deemed to include (i) a merger in which a Party is not the surviving entity, (ii) a consolidation or division of a Party, (iii) a sale of all or substantially all of the Assets of a Party, or (iv) a change of control resulting from a sale or repurchase of shares or similar transaction involving a Party.

8.10 No Third Party Beneficiaries. Except as set forth in Article VI, nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, is intended to confer on any Person other than the Parties any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement.

8.11 Notices. Any notices and other communications required to be given pursuant to this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be effective upon delivery by hand or upon receipt if sent by mail (registered or certified mail, postage prepaid) or upon transmission if sent by facsimile (with request for confirmation of receipt in a manner customary for communications of

 

48


such respective type), except that if notice is received after 5:00 p.m., local time, on a Business Day at the place of receipt, it shall be effective as of the following Business Day. Notices are to be addressed as follows:
