PROVISION OF SERVICES

 

Section 2.1            Provision of Services

 

(a)           Services to be Provided. Commencing on the Distribution Date, subject to the other provisions of this Agreement and the RemainCo Services Annex and the SpinCo Services Annex, as applicable, the RemainCo Group will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide, or to cause to be provided by its Affiliates, agents or independent contractors, the services set forth in the RemainCo Services Annex to this Agreement (together with any RemainCo Additional Services, the “RemainCo Services”) to the applicable member of the SpinCo Group, and the SpinCo Group will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide, or to cause to be provided by its Affiliates, agents or independent contractors, the services set forth in the SpinCo Services Annex to this Agreement (together with any SpinCo Additional Services, the “SpinCo Services” and the SpinCo Services together with the RemainCo Services, the “Services”) to the applicable member of the RemainCo Group.

 

(b)           Nature and Quality of Services. The Service Provider warrants that the Services performed shall be performed in accordance with Section 4.14 of this Agreement and, except as otherwise specifically provided by written agreement of the Parties, in the same or similar manner as such Services were performed by RemainCo and its Subsidiaries (including, for purposes of this Section 2.1(b), members of the SpinCo Group) prior to the Distribution Date and at the same general level and with the same general degree of care, attention, accuracy and responsiveness as when performed by the Service Provider for itself, another member of the Service Provider Group or third parties.

 

4



 

(c)           Additional Services. Prior to the Expiration Date, if one Party identifies any commercial or other service that it needs to assure a smooth and orderly transition of the SpinCo Business or the RemainCo Business, as applicable, in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Separation Agreement, and that is not otherwise governed by the provisions of the Separation Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, the Parties will discuss whether there is a mutually acceptable basis on which the other Party will provide such service, which such other Party may agree or decline to provide at its sole discretion. Any such additional services that the RemainCo Group may agree to provide to the SpinCo Group are herein referred to as “RemainCo Additional Services” and any such additional services that the SpinCo Group may agree to provide to the RemainCo Group are herein referred to as “SpinCo Additional Services” and, together with RemainCo Additional Services, “Additional Services.” Any change to the volume or nature of the Services or the location where such Services are to be provided shall be subject to the mutual agreement of the Parties.

 

(d)           Service Coordinators.  Each Party will appoint in writing a representative to act as the primary contact with respect to the provision of the Services and the resolution of disputes under this Agreement (each such person, a “Service Coordinator”). The initial Service Coordinators shall be the individuals identified on Annex C hereof.  Neither Party may change its respective Service Coordinator without the prior written consent of the other Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld).  The Service Coordinators shall meet as expeditiously as possible to resolve any dispute arising hereunder, and any dispute that is not resolved by the Service Coordinators within thirty (30) days shall be resolved in accordance with the dispute resolution procedures set forth in Article VI of the Separation Agreement. Each Party may treat an act of a Service Coordinator of the other Party that is consistent with the provisions of this Agreement as being authorized by such other Party without inquiring behind such act or ascertaining whether such Service Coordinator had authority to so act; provided, however, that no such Service Coordinator shall have authority to amend this Agreement.

 

(e)           Access; Books and Records. Each Service Recipient shall, for so long as Services are being provided under this Agreement, provide its Service Providers and their respective authorized representatives with reasonable access, following any Service Provider’s request for such access provided in writing no less than three (3) Business Days in advance, during normal business hours, to such Service Recipient’s facilities, books and records to the extent reasonably required to perform the Services.

 

(f)            Limitations; Resource Allocations. Service Recipients acknowledge that Service Providers provide to themselves and other members of the Service Provider Group services that are similar to the Services. Consequently, the Service Provider may, from time to time, experience competing demands for its various services. Accordingly, Service Recipients agree that Service Providers may use reasonable discretion in prioritizing requests for service delivery among the Service Recipient and other members of the Service Provider Group, in each case consistent with past practices; provided that the Service Provider communicates scheduling issues associated with the delivery of any particular Service hereunder with the Service Coordinator for the Service Recipient Group, and that the Service Provider makes reasonable efforts to accommodate the Service Recipient’s requests for Services. No Service Provider shall be required to add or retain staff, equipment, facilities or other resources in order to provide any Service. With the prior written consent of the applicable Service Recipient (which consent shall

 

5



 

not be unreasonably withheld, declined or conditioned), the Service Provider shall have the right to outsource all or portions of some Services to qualified third-party subcontractors; provided that the Service Provider shall be responsible for the costs of such third-party subcontractors.

 

(g)           Extension of Services; Cancellation of Services prior to Expiration Date.

 

(i)            Each Services Annex shall set forth the duration of each Service to be provided under this Agreement (the “Applicable Services Initial Term”) and shall specify the duration, terms and conditions of any optional extension periods beyond the Applicable Services Initial Term and the number of any such extensions permitted. If any Service Recipient requests in accordance with the applicable Services Annex that a Service Provider perform any Service beyond the Applicable Services Initial Term (or the end of any extension thereof, if applicable), the Service Provider shall be obligated to perform such Service for the duration of the extension period as provided in the applicable Services Annex.

 

(ii)           No Service Provider shall have any obligation to provide any Service beyond the Applicable Services Initial Term, as such term may be extended in accordance with Section 2.1(g)(i) (the end of such term, or the date of earlier termination of the Services in accordance with Sections 2.1(g)(iii), 2.1(g)(iv) or 2.2(b), the “Applicable Services Termination Date”).

 

(iii)          Each Party shall have the option to terminate any one or more of the Services provided by the other Party’s Group at any time prior to the Applicable Services Termination Date(s); provided that such Party gives the other Party at least forty-five (45) days’ prior written notice of its election to exercise such option.

 

(iv)          Except as provided in Section 2.1(g)(v) below, if either Party materially defaults on its obligations under this Agreement (including the failure of any member of such Party’s Group to timely pay for Services in accordance with this Agreement) and such default is not cured within thirty (30) days of receipt of written notice of such default, the non-defaulting Party shall have the right, at its sole discretion, to immediately terminate the Services with respect to which the default occurred.

 

(v)           In the event that either Party shall (i) file a petition in bankruptcy, (ii) become or be declared insolvent, or become the subject of any proceedings (not dismissed within sixty (60) calendar days) related to its liquidation, insolvency or the appointment of a receiver, (iii) make an assignment on behalf of all or substantially all of its creditors, or (iv) take any corporate action for its winding up or dissolution, then the other Party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement by providing written notice to the other Party.

 

(vi)          Each Service Provider’s obligation to provide Services to a member of the Service Recipient’s Group shall terminate immediately if such Service Recipient ceases to be a member of the Service Recipient’s Group.

 

(vii)         Following the Applicable Services Termination Date and except as otherwise agreed to by the RemainCo Group and the SpinCo Group, neither Party will be

under any further obligation with respect to any Service so terminated; provided that the Service Recipient will remain obligated for any Service Fees for the terminated Service through the Applicable Services Termination Date and any Direct Charges related to such Service.

 

(h)           Cooperation. RemainCo and SpinCo shall cooperate with one another in good faith and provide such further assistance as the other Party may reasonably request in connection with the provision of Services hereunder, including with respect to any cooperation reasonably required to effect the transition of any Service to the Service Recipient or its designated third-party service provider following the Applicable Services Termination Date.

 

Section 2.2            Fees for Services.

 

(a)           Service Fees. Each Party shall pay to the other Party a monthly fee (each a “Service Fee”) for each of the Services as specified on the applicable Services Annex for each month up to and including the month in which the Applicable Services Termination Date for each such Service occurs. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Parties specifically agree in writing that certain Service Fees shall be payable on other than a monthly basis, each such Service Fee shall be payable on the basis agreed. The Service Fee for any Additional Service, and any adjustment to a Service Fee in connection with a mutually agreed change in the volume, nature or location of a Service, shall be mutually agreed by the Parties prior to the date such Additional Services are provided or such change becomes effective. The Service Recipient shall be responsible for all applicable taxes imposed on the sale, performance, provision or delivery of the Services, other than any taxes imposed on the Service Provider’s income.

 

(b)           Adjustment to Service Fees. The Service Fee for each Service shall be subject to increase (i) to the extent the cost to the Service Provider of providing that Service increases due to higher costs imposed by third parties, (ii) to the extent caused by an any change in the volume or quantity applicable to any Services beyond that contemplated in the applicable Services Annex, and (iii) in the event of modifications to the systems, processes, physical or technical environment or level of trained personnel at the Service Recipient’s facility; provided, that any such increase to any Service Fees shall be negotiated and agreed in good faith by the Service Coordinators no later than thirty (30) days following written request from the applicable Service Provider for such increase; provided, further, that the Service Recipient shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to terminate the Services subject to the Service Fee increase upon written notice delivered no later than five (5) Business Days following receipt of notice of such Service Fee increase. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Service Provider shall bear any additional costs arising from (i) retention of consultants for the migration of software or applications to an existing or new platform, or any improvement or modification thereto, (ii) the Service Recipient’s decision to outsource any of its management information system functions and (iii) any requirement for additional disk space or increased processing capability.

Section 2.3            Payment of Fees.

 

(a)           On or before the 15th day of each month during the term of this Agreement, each Service Provider shall make a diligent effort to submit to the each Service Recipient an invoice for the Services provided hereunder during the immediately preceding calendar month. Except for amounts being disputed by any Service Recipient in good faith in accordance with Section 2.5, each Service Recipient shall remit payment within ten (10) days after the receipt of such invoice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless and until payment has not been received within thirty (30) days of receipt of the applicable invoice, the Service Provider shall not be entitled to suspend or terminate the Services related to the unpaid amounts. Unless otherwise agreed to in writing, each Service Recipient shall remit all funds due under this Agreement to each Service Provider either by wire transfer or Automated Clearing House (ACH) in immediately available funds. Each Party’s wiring instructions shall be provided to the other Party in writing (each Party may revise these from time to time upon notice to the other Party).

 

(b)           To the extent reasonably practicable, all third-party invoices for Direct Charges shall be promptly submitted to the applicable Service Recipient for payment. For Direct Charges not paid directly by the Service Recipient, if any, the Service Provider shall include such amounts in its monthly invoice to the applicable Service Recipient.

 

Section 2.4            Records Maintenance and Audits. Each Service Recipient shall, for so long as Services are being provided under this Agreement and for two (2) years following the Expiration Date (or such longer period as required by applicable Law), maintain records and other evidence sufficient to accurately and properly reflect the performance of the Services hereunder and the amounts due determined in accordance with Section 2.2. Service Recipients and their applicable Service Coordinator and other representatives shall have reasonable access to such records for the purpose of auditing and verifying the accuracy of the invoices submitted regarding such amounts due, in accordance with the provisions of Section 8.7 of the Separation Agreement. Any such audits shall be at the sole cost and expense of the Service Recipient performing or requesting such audits; provided that the costs associated with any audit that reveals an overpayment of more than ten percent (10%) during the audit period shall be the responsibility of the applicable Service Provider. The Service Recipient shall have the right to audit the Service Provider’s books for a period of two (2) years after the month in which the Services were rendered, except in those circumstances where contracts by the Service Provider Group with third parties limit the audit period to a shorter period.

 

Section 2.5            Disputed Amounts. In the event of a good-faith dispute as to the amount and/or propriety of any invoices or any portions thereof submitted pursuant to Section 2.3, if any, the applicable Service Recipient shall pay all undisputed charges on such invoice, but shall be entitled to withhold payment of any amount in dispute and shall promptly notify the applicable Service Provider and Service Coordinator in writing of such disputed amounts and the reasons each such charge is disputed. Upon written request, the Service Provider shall use commercially

reasonable efforts to provide the Service Recipient with sufficient records relating to the disputed charge so as to enable the Parties to resolve the dispute. In the event the Service Coordinators are unable to resolve the dispute within thirty (30) days after the invoice becomes due, the matter shall be resolved in accordance with the dispute resolution procedures set forth in Article VI of the Separation Agreement. The Service Recipient shall remit payment of the amount determined by agreement of the Service Providers or as a result of the dispute resolution procedures to be properly payable not later than ten (10) days following such determination, together with interest thereon calculated daily at the Applicable Rate. In the event of any overpayments by the Service Recipient, the Service Provider agrees to promptly refund any such overpaid amount to the Service Recipient. So long as the Parties are attempting in good faith to resolve the dispute, neither Party shall be entitled to terminate the Services related to, or the cause of, the disputed amounts.

 

Section 2.6            Undisputed Amounts. Any statement or payment not disputed in writing by either Party within one (1) year of the date of such statement or payment shall, absent fraud or manifest error, be considered final and binding and no longer subject to dispute or adjustment.

Section 4.9            Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement, and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each Party hereto and delivered to each other Party. Each Party hereto acknowledges that it and the other Party hereto may execute this Agreement by facsimile, stamp or mechanical signature. Each Party hereto expressly adopts and confirms each such facsimile, stamp or mechanical signature made in its respective name as

if it were a manual signature, agrees that it shall not assert that any such signature is not adequate to bind such Party to the same extent as if it were signed manually and agrees that at the reasonable request of any other Party hereto at any time it shall as promptly as reasonably practicable cause this Agreement to be manually executed (any such execution to be as of the date of the initial date thereof).

 

Section 4.10         Governing Law. This Agreement (and any claims or disputes arising out of or related hereto or to the transactions contemplated or to the inducement of either Party to enter herein, whether for breach of contract, tortious conduct or otherwise and whether predicated on common law, statute or otherwise) shall be governed by and construed and interpreted in accordance with the Laws of the State of Texas, irrespective of the choice of laws principles of the State of Texas, including all matters of validity, construction, effect, enforceability, performance and remedies.

 

Section 4.11         Dispute Resolution. Except as otherwise provided in Section 2.1(d) or Section 2.5, the dispute resolution procedures set forth in Article VI of the Separation Agreement shall apply to any dispute, controversy or claim (whether sounding in contract, tort or otherwise) that arises out of or relates to this Agreement, any breach or alleged breach hereof, the transactions contemplated hereby (including all actions taken in furtherance of the transactions contemplated hereby on or prior to the date hereof), or the construction, interpretation, enforceability or validity hereof.

 

Section 4.12         Assignability. Except for the ability of any Service Provider to cause one or more of the Services to be performed by a third-party provider in accordance with Section 2.1(f) or an Affiliate of the Service Provider, this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns; provided, however, that neither Party hereto may assign its respective rights or delegate its respective obligations under this Agreement without the express prior written consent of the other Party hereto.

 

Section 4.13         Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof to any Person or circumstance is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remaining provisions hereof, or the application of such provision to Persons or circumstances or in jurisdictions other than those as to which it has been held invalid or unenforceable, shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated thereby. Upon such determination, the Parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith in an effort to agree upon such a suitable and equitable provision to effect the original intent of the Parties.

 

Section 4.14         Compliance with Law. Each Party, on behalf of itself and such Party’s Service Recipient Group, represents and agrees that it will use the Services provided hereunder only in accordance with all applicable Law, and in accordance with the conditions, rules, regulations and specifications which may be set forth in any manuals, materials, documents or instructions made available or communicated by any Service Provider to any Service Recipient or any of its Affiliates on an ongoing basis throughout the term of this Agreement. In performing the Services, the Service Provider Group will comply with all applicable Law. Each member of the Service Provider Group reserves the right to take all actions, including termination of any

 

13



 

particular Service or Services, that such Service Provider reasonably believes to be necessary to assure compliance with applicable Law (including specifically, but without limitation, any applicable antitrust Laws and regulations); provided, however, that such Service Provider will endeavor to provide the applicable Service Recipient with as much prior notice as is reasonably practical before taking any such action.

 

Section 4.15         Amendments. No provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed waived, amended, supplemented or modified by either Party, unless such waiver, amendment, supplement or modification is in writing and signed by the authorized representative of the Party against whom such waiver, amendment, supplement or modification is sought to be enforced.

 

Section 4.16         Waivers of Default. Waiver by either Party of any default by the other Party of any provision of this Agreement shall not be deemed a waiver by the waiving Party of any subsequent or other default, nor shall it prejudice the rights of such Party. No failure or delay by any Party in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof prejudice any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.

 

Section 4.17         Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the Separation Agreement and the other Ancillary Agreements, and the exhibits, annexes and schedules hereto and thereto, contain the entire agreement between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, supersede all previous agreements, negotiations, discussions, writings, understandings, commitments and conversations with respect to such subject matter and there are no agreements or understandings between the Parties with respect to such subject matter other than those set forth or referred to herein or therein. In the case of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and the Separation Agreement, the provisions of this Agreement shall prevail.

 

Section 4.18         Survival. The Parties agree that any limitations on liability or responsibility and any exculpatory, disclaimer, waiver or similar provisions will survive the Expiration Date or any other termination of this Agreement and that neither the Expiration Date nor any such termination shall affect any obligation for the Service Fees for any terminated Services, in each case performed or incurred prior to the Expiration Date or any other termination.
