2.2 Seller’s Requirements; Guaranteed Minimum Amount; Notice.

(a) Seller shall purchase from Buyer an annual amount of Services, as measured by Service Fees due and payable from Seller to Buyer, that shall equal or exceed the greater of (i) eighty percent (80%) of Seller’s Requirements, or (ii) $6,000,000 for the calendar year ending December 31, 2006, $5,500,000 for the calendar year ending December 31, 2007 and $5,000,000 for each calendar year thereafter through the remainder of the Term (each such dollar amount, the “Guaranteed Minimum Amount” for the applicable calendar year), provided that Buyer complies with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. The parties agree that there shall be no Guaranteed Minimum Amount for the calendar year ending December 31, 2005. Subject to the provisions of this Section 2.2(a), Seller may, in its sole discretion, elect at any time to obtain services (including the Services) from a third party not affiliated with Buyer.

(b) If the aggregate amount of Services purchased by Seller from Buyer, as measured by Service Fees paid from Seller to Buyer, in any completed calendar year fails to meet or exceed the Guaranteed Minimum Amount for such completed calendar year (each such failure, a “Shortfall”), then Seller shall pay to Buyer on or before February 14 of the immediately following calendar year an amount equal to the amount of such Shortfall. For the avoidance of doubt, the amount of any Shortfall shall be the difference between (A) the Guaranteed Minimum Amount and (B) the aggregate amount of Services Fees paid by Seller from Buyer, in each case for the applicable completed calendar year.

(c) Concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, Seller shall provide to Buyer as Schedule C attached hereto Seller’s estimated monthly requirements for the Services for the three (3) month period immediately following, but not including, the month in which this Agreement is executed. Seller shall hereafter give notice to Buyer on a rolling monthly basis, no later than the first Business Day of each month, of Seller’s estimated monthly requirements for the Services for the three (3) month period immediately following, but not including, the month in which such notice is given; provided, however, that, notwithstanding any such notice of Seller’s estimated requirements in accordance with this Section 2.2, Seller shall not be required under any circumstances to purchase an amount of Services greater than the amount required by Section 2.2(a) hereof.

2.3 Buyer’s Duty to Provide. Buyer shall take all necessary actions to provide, or to cause to be provided, to Seller 100% of Seller’s estimated monthly requirements for the Services pursuant to Section 2.2(c) hereof, including any requirements of Seller for Services in excess of the Guaranteed Minimum Amount in any calendar year, in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. In the event that Buyer requests from Seller an increase in Buyer’s Cost for any Service(s) required by Seller that would exceed by ten percent (10%) or more the Market Cost for such Service(s), Seller shall have the right to decline such Service(s) from Buyer (to the extent that the amount of such Service(s) would exceed the Guaranteed Minimum Amount for the applicable calendar year) and instead to obtain the affected amount of Service(s) from a third party unaffiliated with Buyer, in which case the full affected amount of such Service(s) so obtained shall be excluded for all purposes of this Agreement from Seller’s Requirements. For purposes of this Section 2.3, “Market Cost” means the mathematical average of the bids of at least two (2) third parties regularly engaged in the business of providing the affected Service(s) at comparable quality to provide the affected Service(s) at the same Service Level(s) to Seller.

2.4 Service Level. Buyer shall provide each Service to Seller at a service level (the “Service Level”) that is (i) the Service Level for such Service set forth in Schedule B or the applicable Statement of Work, or, in the absence thereof, (ii) the manner and quality in which such Service, or a substantially similar service, has heretofore been provided to the Retained Business while Seller owned and operated the Production Assets.

2.5 Prohibition on Modifications by Buyer. Subject to Section 2.6 hereof, under no circumstances shall Buyer at any time modify the Services or the Composing Reducing Camera (the “CRC”) or Cold Seal without the prior written approval of Seller, which Seller shall not unreasonably withhold. In the event that Buyer ceases to use the CRC or Cold Seal or any e-Beam Camera for more than one (1) year or Buyer ceases at any time to be a going concern, Buyer shall notify Seller of the same, and Seller shall have the right to purchase the CRC and/or Cold Seal and/or one (1) e-Beam Camera from Buyer for book value.

2.6 Change in Services. In the event that Seller at any time during the Term desires a material change in any Service (other than pursuant to Section 7 hereof) or any service not listed as a Service, subject to the last sentence of Section 2.2(a) hereof, Seller shall provide reasonable advance written notice thereof to Buyer and shall consult with Buyer with respect to obtaining such changed Service from Buyer and amending or supplementing the Statements of Work to reflect such changed or new Service, as the case may be, on mutually agreeable terms and conditions. Buyer agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to accommodate any such request from Seller for a material change in any Service. The provisions of this Section 2.6 shall be subject to Section 2.3 hereof.

2.7 Intellectual Property. The parties agree that matters relating to Intellectual Property under this Agreement shall be governed by the Software License Agreement and any other applicable agreement(s) contemplated by the Purchase Agreement.

2.8 Governance.

(a) Promptly after the date of this Agreement, each party shall designate, and shall notify the other party of such designation, a representative for communicating with the other party regarding the obligations and duties of the parties under each Statement of Work pursuant to this Agreement (each such representative, a “Relationship Manager”). The Relationship Managers of Buyer and Seller shall act as the principal points of contact between the parties for all matters relating to the day-to-day provision of Services provided under this Agreement and shall meet as often as is reasonably necessary in connection therewith. The parties agree that, as a first step, the Relationship Managers shall negotiate all disputes and other matters of joint concern in good faith, with the intention of resolving issues between them in a mutually satisfactory manner. If, but only if, the Relationship Managers are unable to resolve an issue promptly, either party may submit the issue to dispute resolution pursuant to Section 10 hereof, in addition to any other rights of such party under this Agreement. Either party may change its Relationship Manager by notice to the other party pursuant to Section 12 hereof.

(b) In the event that Seller is dissatisfied with the level or quality of any Service provided under this Agreement or otherwise believes that Buyer is not in full compliance with its obligations under this Agreement, Seller may provide prompt written notice thereof (a “Notice of Non-Compliance”)

to Buyer, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for Seller’s belief as well as Seller’s view of the actions that should be taken by Buyer to remedy the alleged non-compliance. The Relationship Managers of the parties shall negotiate in good faith to address the alleged deficiency or non-compliance in a commercially reasonable manner. If the dispute cannot be resolved by the Relationship Managers in a mutually satisfactory manner within thirty (30) days after receipt of such Notice of Non-Compliance, the dispute shall be submitted to dispute resolution in accordance with Section 10 of this Agreement.

3. PRICING; BILLING AND PAYMENT; AUDITS AND ACCESS TO INFORMATION

3.1 Pricing. Subject to Section 3.2 and Section 3.3 hereof, Buyer shall provide the Services to Seller at Buyer’s Cost plus an eight percent (8%) xxxx-up. The components of Buyer’s Cost for the Services are set forth on Schedule D attached hereto. The parties agree to meet on at least a quarterly basis, beginning in the first quarter of 2006, to review and adjust, to the extent necessary and by mutual agreement, the calculation of Service Fees, the components of Buyer’s Cost set forth in Schedule D (including any increases therein, or reductions thereof other than as permitted pursuant to Section 3.3), and Service Levels. Buyer will provide Seller with any billing data or other information (including a breakdown between Cost Per Unit and Overhead) that Seller reasonably requires to determine whether adjustments to Buyer’s Cost for any Service(s) are required.

3.2 Cost Increase. In the event that Buyer requests a material increase in Buyer’s Cost for any Service(s) over the average Buyer’s Cost for such Service during the preceding four (4) calendar quarters that is materially greater than the increase in the Consumer Price Index – All Urban Consumers, for the Detroit – Xxx Arbor – Flint area, published by the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, over the same period, Seller shall have the right to decline such Service(s) from Buyer and instead to obtain the affected Service(s) from a third party unaffiliated with Buyer. In any such case, (i) the Guaranteed Minimum Amount for the applicable calendar year(s) shall be reduced pro rata by the quotient of (A) the dollar amount paid by Seller to any third party for the affected Services during such year, divided by (B) the aggregate amount of Service Fees paid by Seller to Buyer during such year, and (ii) the full amount of any such Service(s) so obtained shall be excluded for all purposes of this Agreement from Seller’s Requirements.

3.3 Cost Reduction.

(a) In the event that Buyer is able to reduce Buyer’s Cost for any Service while continuing to perform its obligations in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, Seller agrees, subject to the provisions of this Section 3.3(a), to pay to Buyer, in addition to Buyer’s Cost plus a markup of eight percent (8%) as set forth in Section 3.1 hereof, an additional amount equal to sixty-five percent (65%) of the amount of such reduction for the duration of such reduction. Buyer agrees to provide reasonable advance written notice of any such cost reduction. All such reductions and additional amounts shall be reflected in reasonable detail and designated as such in the monthly invoice provided by Buyer to Seller in accordance with Section 3.4.

(b) If, in any calendar year, Seller purchases an amount of Services from Buyer that, in the aggregate, equals or exceeds the Guaranteed Minimum Amount for such calendar year, Buyer agrees, subject to Section 2.3 above, to provide any Service(s) in excess of the Guaranteed

Minimum Amount for such calendar year at the lesser of (i) Buyer’s Cost for such Service(s) plus a markup of eight percent (8%), or (ii) an aggregate price for such Service(s) (including Buyer’s markup) equal to the most favorable price charged by Buyer for such Service(s), or substantially similar service(s), to any third party.

3.4 Billing and Payment. The parties agree that Service Fees shall be calculated in accordance with Section 3.1 and billed by Buyer to Seller monthly, promptly after the last day of each month, for Services actually provided during such month and shall be payable (i) from the date hereof through December 31, 2005, upon receipt; (ii) from January 1, 2006 through March 31, 2006, on the fifteenth (15^th) day following the last day of each such month, (ii) from April 1, 2006 through June 30, 2006, on the thirtieth (30^th) day following the last day of each such month, and (iii) during the remainder of the Term, on the forty-fifth (45^th) day following the last day of each month. Buyer will provide as part of its monthly invoice a statement setting forth in reasonable detail the aggregate Service Fees and a breakdown by Service of the basis for such Service Fees.

3.5 Seller’s Right to Withhold. Seller shall have the right upon reasonable advance written notice to Buyer to withhold any amounts invoiced by Buyer for which Seller determines in good faith that Seller is not liable to Buyer.

3.6 Seller’s Access to Buyer. Seller shall have the right upon reasonable advance written notice to meet on no less than a quarterly basis with Xxxxxx Xxxxxx or another member of the board of directors of Buyer to discuss the management, business strategy and operations of the Acquired Businesses, including, but not limited to, any material matters relating to financial statements provided by Buyer to Seller pursuant to any of the Transaction Agreements. Buyer agrees to provide Seller with complete and correct copies of all documents and information provided by Buyer to National City Bank at the same time that Buyer provides any such documents and information to National City Bank. Each of Buyer and Seller agrees to disclose to the other at such quarterly meetings on an ongoing basis any material changes, trends or developments in the business operations of such party as they relate to the Acquired Businesses, subject to any applicable third party confidentiality obligations or requirements of law. Any and all such disclosures made by a party to the other party pursuant to this Section 3.6 shall be held strictly confidential by the other party.

3.7 Audits and Access to Information.

(a) Seller or its designee shall have the right, upon reasonable advance notice and at its expense, to review the books and records of Buyer solely with respect to Buyer’s obligations under this Agreement and to confer with Buyer’s employees responsible for providing or supervising Services in order to review the accuracy of the invoices provided to Seller hereunder (during regular business hours and without unreasonably disrupting Buyer’s normal business operations). In the event that Seller disputes any such invoice, Seller shall deliver a written statement describing the dispute to Buyer within thirty (30) days following receipt of the disputed invoice. The statement shall provide a reasonably detailed description of the disputed items. Upon delivery of the written statement, Seller and Buyer shall cooperate and negotiate in good faith and use commercially reasonable efforts to resolve such disputed charges. If they are unable to resolve such disputed charges within thirty (30) days of delivery of the written statement, either party may elect to submit the matter to the dispute resolution process set forth in Section 10 of this Agreement.

(b) Buyer shall have the right to receive, and Seller shall provide upon written request of Buyer, an appropriate schedule showing a breakdown of the aggregate dollar volume of Seller’s Requirements for the applicable calendar year and appropriate supporting documentation, solely in order to verify whether Seller has purchased 80% of Seller’s Requirements for such calendar year from Buyer as required in Section 2.2(a). Thereafter, upon reasonable advance notice and at Buyer’s expense, Buyer shall have the right to designate a third party not affiliated with Buyer to review (during regular business hours and without unreasonably disrupting Seller’s normal business operations) the books and records of Seller and to confer with Seller’s employees responsible for receiving or supervising Services, in each case solely in order to verify whether Seller has purchased 80% of Seller’s Requirements for such calendar year from Buyer as required in Section 2.2(a). Buyer shall not be entitled to review Seller’s books and records or to confer with Seller’s personnel other than through Buyer’s designated non-affiliated third party as contemplated in this Section 3.7(b). Subject to Seller fulfilling in good faith its obligations under this Section 3.7(b), Buyer shall be entitled to exercise its rights under this Section 3.7(b) only once, and not later than May 1 of the immediately following calendar year, with respect to any calendar year. In the event that Buyer disputes whether Seller has purchased 80% of Seller’s Requirements for the applicable calendar year, Buyer shall deliver a written statement describing the dispute to Seller within thirty (30) days following the end of such one hundred twenty (120) day period. The statement shall provide a reasonably detailed description of the disputed items.

in the public domain. Except as otherwise expressly set forth in the Purchase Agreement, the proprietary information of each party will be and remain the sole property of such party and its assigns.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Article shall not apply to any information that a party can demonstrate: (a) was, at the time of disclosure to it, in the public domain through no fault of such party; (b) was received after disclosure to it from a third party who had a lawful right to disclose such information to it; or (c) was independently developed by the receiving party.

Buyer automatically assigns, and shall cause its personnel automatically to assign, at the time of creation of the Works, without any requirement of further consideration, any right, title, or interest it or they may have in such Works, including any copyrights or other intellectual property rights pertaining thereto.

10. RESOLUTION OF DISPUTES

If a dispute arises between the parties relating to this Agreement that the parties have not been able to resolve pursuant to Section 2.8, the following procedure shall be implemented before any party pursues other available remedies, except that a party may seek injunctive relief from a court where appropriate in order to maintain the status quo while this procedure is being followed:

(a) The parties shall hold a meeting (either in person or telephonically) promptly after receipt by either party of notification of the dispute, attended by certain Executives of the parties, to attempt in good faith to negotiate a resolution of the dispute; provided, however, that no such meeting shall be deemed to vitiate or reduce the obligations and liabilities of the parties hereunder or be deemed a waiver by a party hereto of any remedies to which such party would otherwise be entitled hereunder.

1.05 Paper Scan and Conversion of PDF Newspapers

Called out separately from other paper scan and PDF conversion because criteria has not been set. It is expected that ouputs volume requirements will be equal to those of Newspaper Film Mastering (SOW 1.01) and will likely have similar production specs to those of Periodical scanning. No hardware to support this process has been acquired to date, although it has been investigated both for capability and throughput. PDF conversion will likely have to support film and XML creation for load to Seller digital vaults such as Historical Newspapers (“HNP”).

To Be Delivered: This will be managed through the process outlined in Section 2.6 of the Manufacturing Agreement (Change in Services).

1.06 Serial and Collection Film Scanning (APS, HNP, EEBO, etc)

Specifications:

Film Scan Image Quality and Start-up Guidelines

All scanning is to be from 35mm film, or fiche, with output according to the requirements in SOW Schedule A.

Pages filmed two-up are required to be split, each page must be a file by itself

Images must be put in print order, as best can be determined. Specs will be determined on a project by project basis and defined on SOW Schedule A.

These specs will be used to evaluate Buyer’s output quality. Requests to rescan due to image errors, poor contrast, missing source will be communicated from Seller on a regular source exceptions report. Rescans will be done at no charge to Seller. If significant deliveries within a given project are out of spec thus impacting conversion vendor and product schedules, the appropriate Relationship Managers will determine remedy.

Historical Newspaper Image Quality (Buyer and Seller will have sample sets for use in comparison)

Standards as determined by Product Manager and included in SOW Schedule A for Evaluating HNP – subjective 1-10 scale (this is a current standard and will be defined in SOW Schedule A):

Chicago Tribune 1850’s – 1860’s = 1

Atlanta Constitution = 2

Chicago Tribune early 1900’s = 3

LA Times mid 1900’s = 4

Philadelphia Inquirer = 5

NY Times 20^th Century = 10

A sample scale is provided for APS, EEBO and other collections in SOW Schedule A.

Quality of Microfilm is the main driver. In all cases, tests should be conducted from existing film with Seller Product and Vendor Management responsible for determining whether to proceed or pursue mitigation strategies.

Start up Process to be followed at the start of every scanning project (typically product specific) for identification of images that will result in undesirable OCR quality:

1)	Scan a representative sample from beginning, middle, and end of each film run, more samples may be required dependent upon the size of the project as required in SOW Schedule A.

2)	Evaluate and grade against predefined scale

3)	Deliver samples and grade to Seller for evaluation by Product and Vendor Management

4)	Images will go to Seller conversion vendor to test their ability to zone, OCR and clean up

5)	Vendor will deliver results and conversion pricing to Seller

6)	Seller will notify Buyer on results and may at this time request rescans or other actions

7)	If approved by Seller, Buyer will begin the process and develop a delivery schedule

During the Scan/Scan QC process if an operator finds that 20% of the pages in a batch* consists of images of which at least 50% of the page contains unreadable text due to fading, bleed through, background noise, missing/cut off text, the following procedures will begin: These are current standards and may be amended by Seller.

*	“Batch” will be defined by product in SOW Schedule A

1.	Buyer Scan/Scan QC will identify the batch by spot-checking within the range, until acceptable images are found.

2.	Scan coordinator will notify Seller QA and Vendor Management and supply samples of the images.

3.	Seller Product Management will be engaged for internal sample review and formal notification of film condition and image quality.

4.	Seller will send samples to vendor for OCR evaluation and notify Buyer of results to determine if and how conversion on the images should progress.

Rejects for skew, density, focus, missing and partial pages will be reworked by Buyer at no charge to Seller. Buyer will provide samples of any questionable images prior to large scale conversion. Although the cost to replace is a Buyer liability, significant delay in recognition could impact Seller product delivery schedules and vendor commitments for which there will be a penalty.

Film Scan Timelines

Film Scan Schedules for Seller product will be set on an annual basis; will be adjusted quarterly as additional opportunities or shifts in market demands dictate (See SOW Schedule D).

Statement of Work

1.07 Book Film Scanning (Dissertations & BOD)

Dissertations and Books on Demand (BOD) pages will be scanned from film (or, for BOD, regardless of input) according to the requirements in SOW Schedule A. Final output files will be delivered to Seller to be wrapped as PDF for deposit in Seller PQDD vault for Dissertations, or maintained as TIFF for BOD and delivered to Seller jukeboxes and Buyer Print Operations. Any rescans required will be completed at no cost to Seller if the error resulted from the scan or print process rather than a problem with the source film

BOD

1)	Seller retains rights management and product maintenance in Exodus BOD system

2)	Seller will keep the Xxxxxxx jukebox (Seller asset digital archive)

3)	Buyer will have access to this digital archive.

4)	Seller may request Buyer to print hard-copy—xerography print and bind.

5)	If the content is not in the jukebox, Buyer pulls the film or book, then scans to file directly to jukebox. The cost structure should be the same as scanning film or paper scanning and confirms to the standards for these services.

Preservation Dissertations (Bound, Un-Bound, Backfile and Delicate)

DAAP – Dissertations Archival and Access Program

Retro – Film Scant (exists in the vault to be digitized. Sold as per project)

Publishing – Start from original (never published)

Scanning of Non-Standard dissertations (maps, folders, color, size): This is a project #185 that will be managed through the process outlined in Section 2.6 of the Manufacturing Agreement (Change in Services).
