SERVICES

Section 2.1 Services to be Provided to Purchaser.

(a) In General.

(i) Seller shall provide, or shall cause its Affiliates or third parties to provide, to the Purchaser Parties all services (other than investment advisory services) provided to the CAM Business in the ordinary course prior to the Effective Date to the extent provided prior to the Effective Date (it being understood that with respect to each service, “extent” shall mean, in all material respects, the amount, level, frequency, functionality and quality (including the level of care exercised in the performance) of such service, except as otherwise (A) provided herein, or (B) agreed to by the Parties), as set forth on Schedule 2.1(a) (together with the Seller Payroll Services and any Omitted Services and Resumed Services provided by Seller, the “Seller Services”).

(ii) In the event that Purchaser internally restructures, reorganizes or transfers the CAM Business to an Affiliate or a third party, Seller shall continue to provide the Seller Services to such Affiliate or third party to the extent provided prior to such restructuring, reorganization or transfer, but only insofar as such Affiliate or such third party continues to conduct the CAM Business.

(b) Employee Benefits, Payroll Administration and Other HR Services.

(i) Seller shall, or shall cause its Affiliates or third parties to (A) provide the Purchaser Parties with payroll services, (B) facilitate the operation and implementation of, and provide administration services with respect to, the employee health and welfare benefits plans, retirement plans and other employee benefit plans for the CAM Continuing Business Employees and any other employees described on Schedule 2.1(b) and (C) provide health and welfare benefits, retirement benefits and other employee benefits for CAM Continuing Business Employees and any other employees described on Schedule 2.1(b) during the Benefits Transition Period, in each case, as set forth on Schedule 2.1(b) (the “Seller Payroll Services”) and in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth on Schedule 2.1(b). Seller will give at least the same priority to rendering the Seller Payroll Services to the Purchaser Parties as Seller gives to providing comparable services to its business units. During the Benefits Transition Period, Seller shall continue to administer and provide coverage pursuant to the health and welfare benefit plans, retirement plans and other employee benefit plans of Seller as provided for on Schedule 2.1(b) (the “Transition Benefits Plans”) for the benefit of all CAM Continuing Business Employees and any other employees described on Schedule 2.1(b), and their

eligible dependents and beneficiaries, on substantially the same basis as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Date (except as otherwise set forth on Schedule 2.1(b)) for such individuals. Except with respect to Seller Parties’ gross negligence or willful misconduct or as otherwise provided in the Transaction Agreement, Purchaser shall be liable, and Seller shall have no liability, for all benefits, claims and costs incurred by Seller and/or Purchaser under the Transition Benefits Plans in respect of events occurring during the Benefits Transition Period to the same extent that Purchaser would have been liable for such benefits, claims and costs (including actual benefits, claims and costs associated with continuation of group health plan coverage required under Part 6 of Title I of ERISA (“COBRA Coverage”)) if Purchaser had newly established and was the sole sponsor of the Transition Benefits Plans during such period. Following the Benefits Transition Period, Purchaser shall assume, under Purchaser welfare benefit plans, the COBRA Coverage of all CAM Continuing Business Employees still receiving such COBRA Coverage, and the Seller shall no longer administer such plans; provided, however, that Seller shall provide administrative support with respect to any claims incurred prior to the end of the Benefits Transition Period.

(ii) Seller shall provide Purchaser Parties such personnel data (i) as may be reasonably necessary to assist Purchaser in creating a payroll system and administering health and welfare benefits, retirement benefits and other employee benefits for the CAM Continuing Business Employees and any other employees described on Schedule 2.1(b) and (ii) documents as Purchaser may reasonably request (including requests for any such data for purposes of satisfying or meeting any obligation under a subpoena or other similar legal order).

Section 2.2 Services to be Provided to Seller.

(a) In General.

(i) Purchaser shall provide, or shall cause its Affiliates or third parties to provide, to the Seller Parties all services (other than investment advisory services) provided to the Seller’s Business in the ordinary course prior to the Effective Date to the extent provided prior to the Effective Date (it being understood that with respect to each service, “extent” shall mean, in all material respects, the amount, level, frequency, functionality and quality (including the level of care exercised in the performance) of such service, except as otherwise (A) provided herein, or (B) agreed to by the Parties), as set forth on Schedule 2.2(a) (together with the Indonesian Services and any Omitted Services and Resumed Services provided by Purchaser, the “Purchaser Services” and, together with the Seller Services and the Additional Services, the “Services”).

(ii) In the event that Seller internally restructures, reorganizes or transfers the business to which the Purchaser Services relate to an Affiliate or a third party, Purchaser shall be obligated to continue to provide the

Purchaser Services to such Affiliate or third party to the extent provided prior to such restructuring, reorganization or transfer, but only insofar as such Affiliate or such third party continues to conduct the business to which the Purchaser Services relate.

(b) Indonesian Services. Purchaser shall, or shall cause its Affiliates or third parties to provide, to the Seller Parties the services set forth on Schedule 2.2(b) (the “Indonesian Services”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein: (i) the Base Term of the Indonesian Services shall be four (4) months, (ii) the Extension Term of the Indonesian Services shall be five (5) months, (iii) during the Base Term for the Indonesian Services, the Base Cost of the Indonesian Services shall be $117,000 U.S. Dollars per month and (iv) during the Extension Term for the Indonesian Services, the Base Cost of the Indonesian Services shall be $142,000 U.S. Dollars per month.

Section 2.3 Omitted Services. If, at any time within one hundred and fifty (150) days following the Effective Date, either Party becomes aware of any service that had been provided prior to the Effective Date that is not included on Schedule 2.1(a), Schedule 2.1(b) or Schedule 2.2(a), as applicable, and which the Parties had not specifically agreed to omit from such schedule (each such service, an “Omitted Service”), then upon notice to the other Party, such service will be added to the applicable schedule and become a Seller Service, Seller Payroll Service or Purchaser Service, as applicable. The Party that must resume such Service shall resume provision of such Service as soon as reasonably practicable. The cost of any Omitted Service shall be determined in accordance with Section 4.1.

Section 2.4 Additional Services.

(a) If either Party desires to receive an additional service (or to expand the scope or lengthen the duration of any Service) that is not an Omitted Service or a Resumed Service, the Service Coordinators shall meet (in person or by telephone) within ten (10) days of the other Party’s receipt of a written notice by the Party desiring to receive such additional service to discuss in good faith whether and on what terms and conditions such other Party is willing to provide such additional service (or such expanded scope or lengthened duration of a Service) (each such service, to the extent provided, will be considered an “Additional Service”).

(b) The Parties shall mutually agree on the scope, terms, Base Cost and duration of all Additional Services, all of which shall be set forth on Schedule 2.4, as amended from time to time.

Section 2.5 Resumed Services. If after a Service (a) has been terminated in accordance with Section 10.3 by the Party that received such Service or (b) that had been provided prior to the Effective Date was specifically omitted by the Parties from Schedule 2.1(a) or Schedule 2.2(a), as applicable, the applicable receiving Party is unable to provide such service for itself despite using its commercially reasonable efforts to do so, then such receiving Party shall so notify the Party that provided such service, and such providing Party will resume providing such service, if commercially and technologically feasible and subject to such providing Party’s ability to obtain any third party consents necessary to provide the service (each, a “Resumed Service”). The Party that received such Service shall be responsible for all

costs of the Party that provided such Service associated with resuming such Service, and to the extent reasonably practicable, such providing Party shall provide such receiving Party with advance notice of such expenses.

Section 2.6 Service Coordinators. Seller and Purchaser shall each nominate a representative to act as the primary contact person with respect to the performance of the Services (each, a “Service Coordinator”). Unless otherwise agreed upon by the Parties, all communications relating to this Agreement and to the Services provided hereunder shall be directed to the Service Coordinators. The initial Service Coordinators for Purchaser and Seller, including relevant contact information, are set forth on Schedule 2.6. Either Party may replace its Service Coordinator at any time by providing notice in accordance with Section 11.3 of this Agreement.

Section 2.7 Standard of Performance.

Without limiting the foregoing, all Services shall be provided in a timely and workmanlike manner, consistent with recent past practice and to the extent provided prior to the Effective Date.

Section 2.8 Cooperation.

(a) Each Party shall, and shall cause its respective Affiliates and use commercially reasonable efforts to cause its third party service providers, to reasonably cooperate with the other Party in all matters relating to the provision and receipt of the Services and to minimize the expense, distraction and disturbance to each Party, shall perform all obligations hereunder in good faith and in accordance with principles of fair dealing and shall not engage in any willful or intentional misconduct, gross negligence, common law fraud or otherwise violate any Requirements of Law. Such cooperation shall include (i) the execution and delivery of such further instruments or documents as may be reasonably requested by the other Party to enable the full performance of each Party’s obligations hereunder and (ii) notifying the other Party in advance of any changes to a Party’s operating environment or Personnel (especially changes with respect to employee status), and working with the other Party to minimize the effect of such changes.

(b) Each Party will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide information and documentation necessary for the other Party to perform the Seller Services or the Purchaser Services, as applicable, in the manner they were provided in the ordinary course prior to the Effective Date, and will use commercially reasonable efforts to make available, as reasonably requested by the other Party, sufficient resources and timely decisions, approvals and acceptances in order that the other Party may perform its obligations under this Agreement in a timely and efficient manner.

(c) The Purchaser Parties and the Seller Parties shall follow, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to follow, the policies, procedures and practices of the other Party and its Affiliates applicable to the Services being provided by or on behalf of such other Party that are in effect as of the Effective Date and of which the applicable Party has been made aware.

Section 2.9 Separation and/or Segregation.

(a) Unless otherwise agreed by the Parties in writing, Seller shall bear all costs of any separation and/or segregation activities with respect to the CAM Business (i) required under any applicable Requirements of Law as a result of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Agreement and the Related Agreements or (ii) undertaken upon Seller’s own initiative. All separation and/or segregation activities requested by Purchaser shall be treated as requests for Additional Services, and the costs thereof shall be borne by Purchaser.

(b) To the extent that Seller has not completed separation and/or segregation of the CAM Business’ operations and data from Seller’s other operations and data prior to the Effective Date, Seller shall complete such separation and/or segregation during the Term or sooner as required by Requirements of Law, with minimal interruption to CAM’s daily business, provided that such activities shall not be deemed a Service under this Agreement.

Section 2.10 Subcontracting.

(a) By Seller. When acting as a Service provider, Seller may subcontract to another provider (including third parties and Seller’s own Subsidiaries and Affiliates), or change an existing subcontractor of:

(i) any Service provided solely to the CAM Business with Purchaser’s prior written consent (which consent may not be unreasonably withheld).

(ii) any other Service upon notice to Purchaser; provided, that Purchaser shall have a reasonable opportunity to comment on the plan to implement such subcontracting prior to such implementation, and provided, further, that if such change is reasonably likely to have a significant adverse effect on the level and/or quality of a material Service, the plan for implementing such change with respect to such material Service shall be subject to the Purchaser’s prior written consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

(b) By Purchaser. When acting as a Service provider, Purchaser may subcontract to another provider (including third parties and Purchaser’s own Subsidiaries and Affiliates), or change an existing subcontractor of:

(c) Notwithstanding any subcontracting or change of subcontractors permitted under this Section 2.10, Seller or Purchaser, as applicable, shall always remain responsible for the performance of the Seller Services or Purchaser Services, as applicable, in accordance with the service levels, quality and costs set forth herein.

Section 2.11 Certain Changes.

ARTICLE III

LIMITATIONS

Section 3.1 General Limitations.

(a) Unless expressly provided otherwise herein (i) Seller Parties shall be required to provide the Seller Services hereunder only to the extent that such Seller Services were provided to the CAM Business in the ordinary course prior to the Effective Date and (ii) the Seller Services provided by Seller hereunder shall be available only for the purposes of conducting the CAM Business.

(b) Unless expressly provided otherwise herein (i) Purchaser Parties shall be required to provide the Purchaser Services hereunder only to the extent that such Purchaser Services were provided to Seller’s Business in the ordinary course prior to the Effective Date and (ii) the Purchaser Services provided by Purchaser hereunder shall be available only for the purposes of conducting Seller’s Business.

Section 3.2 Third Party Limitations. Each Party acknowledges and agrees that the Services provided by a Party through third parties or using third party Intellectual Property are subject to the terms and conditions of any applicable agreements between the provider of such Service and such third parties. Each Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to (a) obtain any necessary consent from such third parties in order to provide such Services or (b) if any such consent is not obtained, provide acceptable alternative arrangements to provide the relevant Services sufficient for the other Party’s purposes. All costs associated with (a) and (b), above, shall be borne by the Party receiving the applicable Service, except that any one time

costs incurred in connection with the migration of any Service to an alternative arrangement shall be borne by the Party providing the applicable Service. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Party providing the applicable Service shall provide reasonable prior notice to the Party receiving the applicable Service of the costs associated with (a) and (b), and the Parties shall cooperate to mitigate such costs (including exploring alternative arrangements, if any).

Section 3.3 Compliance with Laws. Neither Party shall provide, or cause to be provided, any Service to the extent that the provision of such Service would require such Party, any of its Affiliates or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents or representatives to violate (a) any applicable Requirements of Law, (b) any policies and/or procedures of such Party designed to respond to a Requirement of Law, to a new legal or regulatory issue or to a security threat or (c) any other policies and/or procedures of such Party in existence on the Effective Date.

Section 3.4 Excluded Seller Services. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, in no event shall the Seller Services include any of the services set forth on Schedule 3.4.

Section 3.5 Force Majeure.

(a) The Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide, or cause to be provided, the Services without interruption. In the event that any Party providing, or causing to be provided, Services is wholly or partially prevented from, or delayed in, providing one or more Services, or one or more Services are interrupted or suspended, by reason of events beyond its reasonable control (including acts of God, fire, explosion, floods, embargoes, epidemics, war, acts of terrorism, nuclear disaster, labor strikes, civil unrest and/or riots) (each, a “Force Majeure Event”), such Party shall not be obligated to deliver the affected Services during such period, and the Party that would have received such Services shall not be obligated to pay for any Services not delivered.

(b) Upon the occurrence of a Force Majeure Event, the affected Party shall promptly give written notice to the other Party of the Force Majeure Event upon which it intends to rely to excuse its performance, and of the expected duration of such Force Majeure Event. The duties and obligations of such Party hereunder shall be tolled for the duration of the Force Majeure Event, but only to the extent that the Force Majeure Event prevents such Party from performing its duties and obligations hereunder.

(c) During the duration of a Force Majeure Event, the affected Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to avoid or remove such Force Majeure Event, and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to resume its performance under this Agreement with the least practicable delay. From and during the occurrence of a Force Majeure Event, the other Party may replace the affected Services by providing such Services for itself or engaging a third party to provide such Services.

(d) For the period beginning sixty (60) days after the occurrence of a Force Majeure Event and ending upon the termination of such Force Majeure Event, the affected Party shall pay or reimburse, as applicable, the difference, if any, between (i) all of the other Party’s reasonable costs associated with any replacement Services and (ii) the amount the other Party would have paid to such Party under the terms of this Agreement for the provision of such Services had such Party continued to perform such Services.

Section 3.6 Disaster Recovery Services. No Party shall be required to provide disaster recovery Services to the extent that the Party that would receive such Services has materially altered the equipment, hardware or software to which such disaster recovery Services pertain.

Section 3.7 Interim Basis Only. Each Party acknowledges that the purpose of this Agreement is to provide Services to the other Party on an interim basis, until such Party can perform the Services for itself. Accordingly, at all times from and after the Effective Date, each of Seller and Purchaser shall use its respective commercially reasonable efforts to make or obtain any approvals, permits or licenses, implement any computer systems and take, or cause to be taken, any and all other actions necessary or advisable for it to provide the Services for itself as soon as reasonably practicable.

Section 3.8 No Adverse Effect. In providing the Services, no Party shall take any action that could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the assets or business of the other Party or any of its Affiliates, or on the ability of the other Party to comply with its obligations under this Agreement, without obtaining such other Party’s prior written consent.

Section 3.9 Non Performance.

(a) By Seller. If Seller fails to timely provide, or cause to be provided, one or more Seller Services, other than as a result of and during the occurrence of a Force Majeure Event, and such failure prevents Purchaser from operating the CAM Business as it was operated in the ordinary course prior to the Effective Date, from and during such failure to provide such Seller Services, Purchaser, after providing prior written notice to Seller, may replace the affected Seller Services by providing such Seller Services for itself or engaging a third party to provide such Seller Services. In addition to any other remedies that Purchaser may be entitled to, Seller shall also pay Purchaser the difference, if any, between (i) all of Purchaser’s reasonable costs associated with such replacement Seller Services and (ii) the amount Purchaser would have paid to Seller under the terms of this Agreement for the provision of such Seller Services, had Seller Parties continued to perform such Seller Services.

(b) By Purchaser. If Purchaser fails to timely provide, or cause to be provided, one or more Purchaser Services, other than as a result of and during the occurrence of a Force Majeure Event, and such failure prevents Seller from operating the Seller’s Business as it was operated in the ordinary course prior to the Effective Date, from and during such failure to provide such Purchaser Services, Seller, after providing prior written notice to Purchaser, may replace the affected Purchaser Services by providing such Purchaser Services for itself or engaging a third party to provide such Purchaser Services. In addition to any other remedies that

Seller may be entitled to, Purchaser shall also pay Seller the difference, if any, between (i) all of Seller’s reasonable costs associated with such replacement Purchaser Services and (ii) the amount Seller would have paid to Purchaser under the terms of this Agreement for the provision of such Purchaser Services, had Purchaser Parties continued to perform such Purchaser Services.

ARTICLE IV

PAYMENT

Section 4.1 Base Term Fees.

(a) In consideration for the Seller Services and any Additional Services provided by Seller hereunder, Purchaser shall pay to Seller all Direct Costs of Seller Parties in connection with providing each Seller Service that are currently charged to the CAM Business (with respect to each Seller Service, the “Base Cost”), the Base Cost of each Additional Service and any reasonable out of pocket expenses incurred by Seller Parties in connection with providing the Seller Service or Additional Service, as applicable (collectively, the “Seller Fees”). The current Base Cost of each Seller Service is set forth on Schedule 2.1(a) or Schedule 2.1(b), as applicable. The Base Cost for each Additional Service shall be determined on a case by case basis as mutually agreed to by the Parties under Section 2.4(b).

(b) In consideration for the Purchaser Services and any Additional Services provided by Purchaser hereunder, Seller shall pay to Purchaser all Direct Costs of Purchaser Parties in connection with providing each Purchaser Service that are currently charged by the CAM Business (with respect to each Purchaser Service, the “Base Cost”), the Base Cost of each Additional Service and any reasonable out of pocket expenses incurred by Purchaser Parties in connection with providing the Purchaser Service or Additional Service, as applicable (collectively, the “Purchaser Fees” and, together with the Seller Fees, the “Fees”). The current Base Cost of each Purchaser Service is set forth on Schedule 2.2(a). The Base Cost for each Additional Service shall be determined on a case by case basis as mutually agreed to by the Parties under Section 2.4(b).

Section 4.2 Extension Term Fees. Upon the commencement of the Extension Term, and at the beginning of each quarter year thereafter, the Base Cost of each Service being provided during the Extension Term shall increase by 2.5% of such Service’s then current Base Cost.

Section 4.3 Adjustments to Base Cost.

(a) Increases or Decreases in Direct Costs. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, in the event that the Direct Costs of Seller or Purchaser, as applicable, to provide a Service increase or decrease (including as a result of increases in volume under any contract), Seller or Purchaser, as applicable, may adjust the Base Cost of providing such Service by the amount of such increase or decrease, in connection with and only to the extent that such adjustment is generally applicable to all recipients of such Service, including similar services provided to Affiliates of the Party providing the Service.

(b) Adjustment Mechanism. The Parties shall meet (in person or via telephone) on a monthly basis to review the Services provided during the previous month. At each such meeting, the Parties shall adjust the applicable Base Cost for each Service for which the Base Cost is determined by reference to the number of units used during a given month. Such adjustment shall be based on the number of units of each such Service added or reduced, as applicable, during the preceding month multiplied by the unit cost of each such Service, plus a proportional adjustment in the Base Cost of any associated Service. All adjustments to the Base Cost of a Service pursuant to this Section 4.3(b) shall be subject to the terms and conditions of any third party contract used to provide such Service.

Section 4.4 Billing and Payment Terms.

(a) For each country in which a party provides Services to a recipient located in the same country: (i) such providing party shall invoice the party receiving such Services on a monthly basis (such invoice to set forth a description of the Services provided and reasonable documentation to support the charges thereon) for all Services that such providing party delivered during the preceding month, denominated in the local currency of such country, (ii) each such invoice shall be payable within sixty (60) days after such receiving party’s receipt of the invoice and (iii) payment of such invoices shall be made by such receiving party to such providing party in the local currency of the applicable country. Any Service for which the foregoing process does not apply shall be invoiced by the Party providing such Service to the Party receiving such Service in accordance with the foregoing timetable and in U.S. Dollars, and shall be paid by the Party receiving such Services in accordance with the foregoing timetable and in U.S. Dollars.

(b) If any undisputed invoice or undisputed portion of an invoice is not paid in full within sixty (60) days after the date of the invoice, interest shall accrue on the unpaid amount at the annual rate equal to the “Prime Rate” as reported on the thirtieth day after the date of the invoice in The Wall Street Journal (or, if such day is not a Business Day, the first Business Day immediately after such day), calculated on the basis of a year of three hundred sixty (360) days and the actual number of days elapsed between the end of the sixty (60) day period and the actual payment date.

(c) A Party may dispute any or all charges for ninety (90) days after the receipt of the applicable invoice. If a Party disputes any charges, the Parties shall work together in good faith to resolve such dispute in accordance with Section 11.15. If the resolution of such a dispute is that a Party owes an amount of money to the other Party, the Party that owes money shall add a credit of such owed amount to the next invoice that such Party prepares as a Service provider, provided, that if no further such invoices are due, the Party owing such amount shall pay it to the other Party within sixty (60) days following resolution of the dispute. A failure by a Party to dispute a charge within ninety (90) days after receipt of invoice shall not waive such Party’s audit and collection rights under Section 5.5.

(d) The Parties acknowledge that there may be a lag in the submission of charges from third parties relating to the provision of Services, and that the Party providing Services through such third parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such third party invoices, and to provide same to the other Party, in a timely fashion.

(e) The existence of a dispute pursuant to Section 4.4(c) above shall not excuse either Party from any other obligation under this Agreement, including each Party’s obligations to continue to provide Services hereunder.

Section 4.5 Sales Taxes. All consideration under this Agreement, is exclusive of any sales, transfer, value added, goods or services tax or similar gross receipts based tax (including any such taxes that are required to be withheld, but excluding all other taxes including taxes based upon or calculated by reference to income, receipts or capital) imposed against or on services provided (“Sales Taxes”) by a Party providing Services hereunder and such Sales Taxes will be added to the consideration where applicable. Such Sales Taxes shall be separately stated on the relevant invoice to the Party receiving Services hereunder. All taxable goods and services for which a Party receiving Services hereunder is compensating, or reimbursing, a Party providing Services hereunder shall be set out separately from non taxable goods and services, if practicable. The Party receiving Services hereunder shall be responsible for any such Sales Taxes and shall either (i) remit such Sales Taxes to the Party providing Services hereunder (and such providing Party shall remit the such amounts to the applicable taxing authority) or (ii) provide such providing Party with a certificate or other acceptable proof evidencing an exemption from liability for such Sales Taxes. In the event the Party providing Services hereunder fails timely to invoice Sales Taxes on taxable goods or services covered by this Agreement, such providing Party shall notify the Party receiving Services hereunder in a timely manner and such receiving Party shall remit such Sales Taxes to such providing Party, provided, however, that such receiving Party shall not be responsible for the payment of any additions to such Sales Taxes, including penalties and interest imposed due to a failure by such providing Party to remit or cause to be remitted such Sales Taxes in a timely manner to the appropriate taxing authority, unless such failure relates to the failure of the such receiving Party to pay to such providing Party the amount of the Sales Taxes properly invoiced in accordance with the terms herein.

Section 4.6 Offset. In no event shall a Party offset any amounts due hereunder for its receipt of Services by amounts owed to it hereunder for its provision of Services.

Such written notice requirement shall be satisfied by promptly transmitting the statement of claim, complaint, regulatory correspondence or other document triggering the indemnification to the Indemnifying Party along with a cover letter stating briefly why the Indemnified Party believes the claim is subject to indemnification.

(b) Seller’s total liability with respect to this Agreement shall not exceed, in the aggregate, two times the aggregate amount of the Seller Fees paid hereunder, except to the extent that any liability arises out of Seller’s gross negligence, willful or intentional misconduct, common law fraud or other violation of any Requirements of Law.

Nothing in this Section 9.5 shall affect either Party’s obligations under Section 9.9 hereunder.

Section 9.6 Payments.

(a) Amounts payable by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party in respect of any Losses for which such Party is entitled to indemnification hereunder (“Indemnity Payments”) and to which the limitations set forth in Section 9.4 do not apply shall be paid in immediately available funds within ten (10) Business Days after the later of (i) the receipt of a written request from the Indemnified Party entitled to such Indemnity Payment and (ii) the date of payment of the amount that is the subject of the Indemnity Payment by the Party entitled to receive the Indemnity Payment, except to the extent contested by the Indemnifying Party.

(b) With respect to Indemnity Payments to which the limitations set forth in Section 9.4 do apply, if a Party’s Indemnity Payments at any time exceed two times the aggregate amount of the Purchaser Fees or Seller Fees, as applicable, paid to such Party hereunder prior to the date on which the indemnification obligation arose, then such Party shall (i) pay to the Indemnified Party two (2) times the aggregate amount of Purchaser Fees or Seller Fees, as applicable, paid to such Party hereunder prior to such date and (ii) continue to pay the other Party two times the Purchaser Fees or Seller Fees, as applicable, that such Party receives following such date, until the earlier to occur of the full (A) satisfaction of such liability or (B) termination or expiration of this Agreement.

Section 9.7 Insurance; Tax Benefits.

(a) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, Losses shall be net of any insurance or other prior or subsequent recoveries actually received by the Indemnified Party or its Affiliates in connection with the facts giving rise to the claim for indemnification. If an Indemnified Party shall have used commercially reasonable efforts to recover any amounts recoverable under insurance policies and shall not have recovered the applicable Losses, the Indemnifying Party shall be liable for the amount by which such Losses exceeds the amounts actually recovered.

(b) Any indemnity payments made pursuant to this ARTICLE IX by any Indemnifying Party to an Indemnified Party shall be increased to account for any Tax cost incurred by the Indemnified Party upon the receipt of such payment (grossed up for such payment) and shall be made net of any Tax Benefit realized or utilized by the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates resulting from the payments of the amounts indemnified against giving rise to such indemnity payments. For purposes of determining the amount of any Tax Benefit or Tax cost incurred, the Indemnified Party shall be deemed to pay Tax at the highest United States federal income tax corporate marginal rate in effect in the year such indemnifiable Loss is incurred and the recipient of the Tax Benefit shall be deemed to realize or utilize any Tax Benefit in the first taxable year that such Tax Benefit may be realized or utilized under Requirements of Law after taking into account all other Tax Attributes of such indemnified party and the projected utilization of such Tax Attributes as computed by the recipient of such Tax Benefit. If a Tax Benefit resulting from the incurrence or payment of Losses is available to any Indemnified Party or its Affiliates in multiple Tax years, the amount of such Tax Benefit for purposes of this Section 9.7(b) shall be the net present value of all of such available Tax Benefits, calculated by using a discount rate equal to the long term applicable federal rate for the month in which such Losses are incurred. The amount of any increase or reduction hereunder shall be adjusted to reflect any final determination (which shall include the execution of Form 870 AD or successor form) with respect to the Indemnified Party’s liability for Taxes, and any payments, if necessary, by the Indemnified Party or the Indemnifying Party to reflect such adjustment shall be made if necessary within ten (10) days of such determination.

Section 9.8 Remedies Exclusive. The right to indemnification provided in this ARTICLE IX shall be the exclusive remedy (including equitable remedies that involve monetary

payment, such as restitution or disgorgement, other than specific performance to enforce any payment or performance due hereunder) of the Parties from and after the Effective Date in connection with any Third-Party Claims.

Section 9.9 Mitigation. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, each Indemnified Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate any claim or liability that an Indemnified Party asserts or may assert under this Agreement. In the event that an Indemnified Party shall fail to make such commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate any such claim or liability, then notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, neither Seller nor Purchaser, as the case may be, shall be required to indemnify any Indemnified Party for that portion of any Losses that would reasonably be expected to have been avoided if the Indemnified Party had made such efforts.

Section 9.10 No Double Recovery; No Limitation. The remedies provided in this Agreement shall not be cumulative of any duplicative remedy available pursuant to the Transaction Agreement. Nothing contained in this ARTICLE IX shall limit or alter the obligation of any Party to indemnify any other Party pursuant to ARTICLE X of the Transaction Agreement.

ARTICLE X

TERM AND TERMINATION

Section 10.1 Term of Agreement. Except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement, this Agreement shall become effective, and each Service shall commence, on the Effective Date, and this Agreement shall remain in force, and each Service shall continue, for a period of eighteen months thereafter or as otherwise agreed to by the Parties with respect to Additional Services (the “Base Term”), unless earlier terminated by the Parties as provided in this ARTICLE X.

Section 10.2 Extension of Certain Services. Not less than sixty (60) days prior to the expiration of the Base Term, Purchaser or Seller, as applicable, shall notify the other Party if such Party determines in good faith that it will not be able to complete the transition from, or to replace, one or more Services prior to the expiration of the Base Term for such Services. Provided that such Party has at all times performed its obligations under Section 2.8, the other Party shall continue to provide such Services, and, solely with respect to such Services, to extend the term of this Agreement for up to an additional six months (the “Extension Term” and, together with the Base Term, the “Term”); provided, that such Party shall at all times use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize the duration of any such extension. Notwithstanding the foregoing and unless otherwise agreed to by the Parties with respect to an Additional Service, this Agreement, and any obligation to provide any Services hereunder, shall terminate no later than the date that is twenty four months after the Effective Date.

Section 10.3 Termination.

(a) Termination by Seller or Purchaser for Material Breach.

(i) If a Party materially breaches this Agreement, the other Party may terminate the Services affected by such material breach unless, within thirty (30) days of written notice thereof, such breaching Party (i) cures such material breach to the reasonable satisfaction of the other Party (if such material breach is subject to cure) and (ii) demonstrates, to the other Party’s reasonable satisfaction, that such breaching Party has enacted remedial measures designed to prevent the breach from occurring again.

(ii) Upon a Party’s second material breach of this Agreement with respect to a particular Service where such second material breach is substantially similar to the first material breach with respect to such Service, the other Party may terminate the Services affected by such material breach and, within thirty (30) days of written notice of such material breach, such breaching Party must (i) cure such material breach to the reasonable satisfaction of the other Party (if such material breach is subject to cure) and (ii) demonstrate, to the other Party’s sole satisfaction, that such breaching Party has enacted remedial measures designed to prevent the breach from occurring again.

(b) Other Termination by Seller or Purchaser. This Agreement, or any Service provided hereunder, as applicable, may be terminated by either Party (the “Terminating Party”) upon written notice to the other Party, if:

(i) the other Party makes a general assignment for the benefit of creditors or becomes insolvent, or a receiver is appointed for, or a court approves reorganization or arrangement proceedings on, such Party; or

(ii) required by any Governmental Entity, upon thirty (30) days’ notice or sooner if necessary; provided, however, that prior to any such notice of termination, the Parties mutually agree that this Agreement cannot be amended in a manner that will satisfy such Governmental Entity without materially changing the effect or intent of this Agreement.

(i) Either Party, as a Service recipient, may on thirty (30) days’ written notice to the other Party, terminate any Seller Service, Purchaser Service or Additional Service, as applicable. Any such terminated Service shall be deleted from Schedule 2.1(a), Schedule 2.2(a) or Schedule 2.4, as applicable, and the terminating Party shall have no obligation to continue to use or pay for any such Seller Service or Purchaser Service, as applicable; provided, however, that this Agreement shall remain in effect until neither Party requires any Service from the other Party, or until otherwise terminated pursuant to this ARTICLE X.

(ii) Any termination notice delivered by either Party pursuant to this Section 10.3(c) shall specify in detail the Service or Services to be terminated, and the effective date of such termination.

(d) Automatic Termination. Once a Party has fully completed its transition from or replacement of a Service it has been receiving hereunder, such receiving Party shall immediately terminate such Service in accordance with Section 10.3(c).

Section 10.4 Effect of Termination. In the event that this Agreement is terminated for any reason:

(a) Each Party agrees and acknowledges that the obligations of each Party to provide the Services, or to cause the Services to be provided, hereunder shall immediately cease, and any licenses to Seller Facilities and Purchaser Facilities granted hereunder shall immediately terminate. Upon cessation of the applicable Party’s obligation to provide any Service, the Party receiving the Service shall stop using, directly or indirectly, such Service.

(b) Upon request, each Party shall, and shall cause its Affiliates and third parties (subject to the terms of such Party’s agreements with such third parties) retained by such Party or Affiliates to, return to the other Party or destroy (and certify to the destruction of) all tangible personal property and books, records or files owned by such other Party or its Affiliates and third parties and used in connection with the provision of Services that are in their possession as of the termination date.

(c) In the event that the Party receiving a Service seeks to discontinue such Service without providing the thirty (30) day notice provided for herein, the Party receiving such Service shall be responsible to the Party providing such Service for reasonable and proper termination charges, including all reasonable cancellation costs, that are actually incurred by the Party providing such Service; provided, that (i) the Party providing such Service shall use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize all such costs; and (ii) such costs shall be no greater than the amount the Party receiving such Service would have paid for thirty (30) days of such Service had the Party receiving such Service actually received such Service.

(d) The following matters shall survive the termination of this Agreement (i) the rights and obligations of each Party under Section 5.5(a), Section 5.5(b), ARTICLE VI, ARTICLE VII, ARTICLE VIII, ARTICLE IX, this Section 10.4 and ARTICLE XI and (ii) the obligations under ARTICLE IV of each Party to pay the applicable Fees for Services furnished prior to the effective date of termination.

Section 11.5 Jurisdiction; Venue; Consent to Service of Process.

(a) Each Party irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the non exclusive jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York or, if such court will not accept jurisdiction, the Supreme Court of the State of New York or any court of competent civil jurisdiction sitting in New York County, New York. In any action, suit or other proceeding related to this Agreement, each Party irrevocably and unconditionally waives and agrees not to assert by way of motion, as a defense or otherwise any claims that it is not subject to the jurisdiction of the above courts, that such action or suit is brought in an inconvenient forum or that the venue of such action, suit or other proceeding is improper.

This Agreement, together with all Schedules hereto, the Transaction Agreement (except for Exhibit F-1, Exhibit F-2 and Exhibit F-3 to the Transaction Agreement), the Related Agreements and the Confidentiality Agreement, embody the entire agreement of the Parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements with respect thereto. The Parties intend that this Agreement shall constitute the complete and exclusive statement of its terms and that no extrinsic evidence whatsoever may be introduced in any judicial proceeding involving this Agreement.

Section 11.7 Amendment, Modification and Waiver. No amendment to this Agreement shall be effective unless it shall be in writing and signed by each Party hereto. Any failure of a Party to comply with any obligation, covenant, agreement or condition contained in

this Agreement may be waived by the Party entitled to the benefits thereof only by a written instrument duly executed and delivered by the Party granting such waiver, but such waiver or failure to insist upon strict compliance with such obligation, covenant, agreement or condition shall not operate as a waiver of, or estoppel with respect to, any subsequent or other failure of compliance.

Section 11.8 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement, or the application of any such provision, is invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of this Agreement, or invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. To the extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, the Parties waive any provision under Requirements of Law that renders any provision of this Agreement invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect.

Section 11.9 Successors and Assigns; No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement and all its provisions shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective permitted successors and assigns.

Section 11.10 Assignment. No Party may assign its rights or obligations under this Agreement, including in the case of a merger or other change of control, without the prior written consent of the other Party (which consent may not be unreasonably withheld). Any purported assignment or transfer in violation of this Section 11.10 shall be void and shall constitute a material breach of this Agreement.

Section 11.13 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by the Parties in multiple counterparts which may be delivered by facsimile transmission. Each counterpart when so executed and delivered shall be deemed an original, and all such counterparts taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

any of its Affiliates. Each Party and its Affiliates shall, at all times, maintain complete control over its Personnel and operations, and shall have sole responsibility for staffing, instructing and compensating its Personnel. Neither Party (nor its Affiliates) shall have, or shall represent that it has, any power, right or authority to bind the other Party (or its Affiliates) to any obligation or liability, to assume or create any obligation or liability or transact any business in the name or on behalf of the other Party (or its Affiliates), or make any promises or representations on behalf of the other Party (or its Affiliates), unless agreed to in writing.

Section 11.15 Dispute Resolution. In the event of any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or the breach, termination or validity thereof, including the dispute of any fees invoiced under ARTICLE IV or any claim by any Party that any other Party has breached the material terms hereof (each, a “Dispute”), the Service Coordinators of Seller and Purchaser shall meet (by telephone or in person) no later than two (2) Business Days after receipt of notice by any Party of a request for resolution of a Dispute. The Service Coordinators shall enter into negotiations aimed at resolving any such Dispute. If the Service Coordinators are unable to reach mutually satisfactory resolution of the Dispute within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of notice of the Dispute, the Dispute shall be referred to an executive committee (the “Executive Committee”) comprised of at least one member of the senior management of each Party. The initial members of the Executive Committee, including relevant contact information, are set forth on Schedule 11.15, and either Party may replace its Executive Committee members at any time with other representatives of similar seniority by providing notice in accordance with Section 11.3.
