In the event that a Service Recipient requests that a Service Provider provide or, in the case of Schedule A, Schedule B or, as applicable, Schedule E, procure the provision of any service that was provided or procured during the 12-month period immediately prior to the Effective Date and that is reasonably necessary for the Service Recipient to carry on its business in the same or similar form in which such business was conducted during the 12-month period immediately prior to the Effective Date, but is not listed on the Schedules hereto (each, an “Omitted Service”), the applicable Service Provider shall provide or procure the provision of such Omitted Service to or for such applicable Service Recipient on terms to be negotiated by the Parties in good faith.

The Parties agree that services covered by this Section 2.2 shall not include any one-time projects provided prior to the Effective Date that the Parties would not have reasonably expected to be provided in the future.

Section 2.3 Additional Services. At any time after the Effective Date and during the term of this Agreement, a Service Recipient may request that a Service Provider provide or procure the provision of additional services hereunder (each, an “Additional Service”) by providing written notice of such request, it being understood that the Service Provider that receives such request may, in its sole discretion, decline to provide or procure the provision of such requested Additional Service.

Section 2.4 Replacement Services. If any Party is (i) unable to, or unable to continue to, provide or, in the case of Schedule A, Schedule B or, as applicable, Schedule E, procure the provision of any Service for which it is identified as the Service Provider on the Schedules hereto for any reason outside such Party’s control or (ii) prevented from providing or procuring any Service by reason of Section 2.5(b), the Service Provider shall immediately notify the Service Recipient and shall use its, or shall cause its Subsidiaries to use their respective, commercially reasonable efforts and, to the extent applicable, negotiate in good faith, to promptly provide to, or, in the case of Schedule A, Schedule B or, as applicable, Schedule E, procure for, the applicable Service Recipient substantially equivalent services and support in accordance with the terms of this Agreement (such service and support, a “Replacement Service”).In the event that a Service Provider is required to provide or, in the case of Schedule A, Schedule B or, as applicable, Schedule E, procure a Replacement Service, the Parties will reasonably cooperate in good faith to revise the applicable Project Card pursuant to Section 2.12(a) and will enter into an amendment to this Agreement, amending the applicable Schedule to reflect such Replacement Service, and such Replacement Service shall be deemed to be part of this Agreement and the Services from and after the effective date of such amendment; provided, however, that the Service Fee is agreed upon in writing by the Parties.

Section 2.5 Standard of Performance; Scope of Service.

(a) Except as explicitly set forth in any Schedule hereto, each Service Provider shall provide or procure the provision of the Services it has agreed to provide or procure hereunder (i) in good faith and with reasonable care, (ii) in a professional and workmanlike manner and (iii) in all material respects at least to the standard at which such Services were provided during the 12-month period immediately prior to the Effective Date, as applicable, in each case unless otherwise agreed to by the Parties in writing.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, no Service Provider shall be obligated to provide or procure the provision of, or cause any of its Subsidiaries to provide or procure the provision of, any Service to the extent the provision of such Service would violate (i) any agreement or license with a third party to which such Service Provider or any of its Subsidiaries is subject as of the Effective Date due to a change in the beneficial ownership of AEH or (ii) any Applicable Law. Each Service Provider shall use its commercially reasonable efforts and, to the extent applicable, negotiate in good faith, to make or obtain and maintain any approvals, agreements, permits, consents, waivers and licenses from any third parties that are necessary to permit any Party or its Subsidiaries to provide or procure the provision of the applicable Services under this Agreement; provided that any reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (if any) incurred by either Party in connection with obtaining such approvals, agreements, permits, consents, waivers and licenses shall be borne by the Service Recipient.

(c) Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Parties reserve the right, in their roles as Service Providers, to make reasonable changes to (i) the manner in which Services are provided, (ii) the location from which the Services are provided and (iii) the personnel involved in the provision of the Services, but in each case only the extent such changes do not result in a breach of the standard of performance set forth in this Section 2.5. Further, no Party shall be obligated to acquire or maintain the ownership of any specific additional equipment or software, but only to the extent the failure to do so does not result in a breach of the standard of performance set forth in this Section 2.5.

(d) In the event that a Third-Party Contract underlying a Service expires during the term of this Agreement, the Party providing such Service and its Subsidiaries shall have no obligation to renew or renegotiate such Third-Party Contract.

Section 2.6 Third-Party Providers.

(a) As specified in Section 2.1(a)(i), Section 2.1(a)(ii) and Section 2.1(a)(v), the applicable Service Providers shall provide or procure the provision of the Services described on Schedule A, Schedule B or, as applicable, Schedule E, respectively, each of which, as of the Effective Date, is provided by one or more third-party service providers (each, a “Third-Party Provider”); provided that each such Service Provider shall have the right to replace any Third-Party Provider listed on Schedule A, Schedule B or, as applicable, Schedule E with a different Third-Party Provider at any time in its sole discretion. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event of a material breach of the terms of this Agreement by a Service Provider as a result of the acts or omissions of a Third-Party Provider that cannot be cured, the Service Provider shall use its, or shall cause its Subsidiaries to use their respective, commercially reasonable efforts and, to the extent applicable, negotiate in good faith, to provide or procure a Replacement Service in accordance with Section 2.4.

(b) Each Service Provider shall continue to manage its relationships with any Third-Party Provider with at least the same standard of care as if the Third-Party Provider were supporting such Service Provider’s own businesses and in no event less than a reasonable standard of care.

Section 2.7 Liability for Third-Party Providers.

(a) If a Service Provider breaches this Agreement as a result of the acts or omissions of a Third-Party Provider, the Service Provider’s liability is subject to the Section 9.3 limitations and caps on liability.

(b) Notwithstanding the limitations in Section 2.7(a), any amounts recovered by the Service Provider from a Third-Party Provider which are in relation to Losses incurred as a result of the acts or omissions of the Third-Party Provider shall be divided among the Service Provider and the Service Recipient in proportion to their Losses; provided, however, that any amounts paid over to the Service Recipient shall not exceed the amount of the Service Recipient’s Losses. For the avoidance of doubt: (i) any amounts paid over to the Service Recipient pursuant to this Section 2.7(b) are independent of and not to be part of any limitations or caps on the liability of the Parties as set forth in Section 9.3 and (ii) if the Service Provider’s commercially reasonable efforts to recover such amounts from a Third-Party Provider are unsuccessful, such a failure to recover any amounts is not a breach and is not a liability of the Service Provider.

(c) Without prejudice to the Parties’ rights and obligations in relation to mitigation of losses at law or in equity, each Service Provider and Service Recipient shall use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate the quantum of Losses and/or any other adverse consequences incurred or suffered by the Service Recipient as a result of the breach of a Third-Party Contract by a Third-Party Provider (to the extent a Party is aware of such breach).

Section 2.8 Change in Service. Any request for a change to a Service shall be submitted in writing by the requesting Party or its Subsidiaries to the other Party or its Subsidiaries describing the proposed change in reasonable detail. The Party or Subsidiary receiving such request shall respond to the request as soon as practicable and the Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to negotiate, for a period of up to thirty (30) days following the receiving Party or Subsidiary’s response, reasonably practicable terms for implementing such change, including any changes in fees, if applicable; provided that the applicable Party or Subsidiary receiving the request shall not have any obligation to agree to such request for a change to a Service.

Section 2.9 Service Provider’s Employees.

(a) With respect to Services provided directly by a Service Provider to a Service Recipient (as opposed to Services provided by or through a Third-Party Provider), each Service Provider shall be responsible for selecting and supervising in good faith the Personnel who will perform any particular Service and performing all administrative support with respect to such Personnel. Each Service Provider shall be responsible for ensuring that the Personnel it selects to perform Services hereunder have all requisite licenses and qualifications required to render such Services.

(b) No Party shall be obligated to (i) hire or cause any Service Provider to hire any additional employees, maintain the employment of any specific employee, or acquire additional equipment, software or other resources to provide the Services or (ii) retain, replace or increase the number of employees or Service Providers engaged in performing, or otherwise used in connection with the delivery of the Services; provided that in each case, failure to take the actions in clauses (i) and (ii) does not result in a breach of the standard of performance set forth in Section 2.5.

(c) No provision of this Agreement is intended or shall be deemed to have the effect of placing the management or policies of any Service Recipient under the control or direction of any Service Provider, or vice versa, including the management of any Personnel of any Service Provider.

Section 2.10 Availability of Information and Records; Audit.

(a) Subject to Article VIII and to Applicable Law, each Service Recipient shall, or shall cause its Subsidiaries to, and on a timely basis, (i) make available to the applicable Service Provider all information reasonably requested by such Service Provider to enable such Service Provider to provide any of the applicable Services and (ii) provide such Service Provider with reasonable access to the Service Recipient’s premises and systems to the extent necessary for purposes of providing the applicable Services, subject to the Service Provider’s compliance with all policies and procedures, and other reasonable requirements and instructions, communicated by the Service Recipient regarding such access.

(b) Each Party shall maintain and retain Service Records as may be required by, and in compliance with, Applicable Law and the underlying contract in respect of the Service provided.

Each Party’s obligations under this paragraph will survive the termination of this Agreement, if applicable.

(c) Following termination of this Agreement, and subject to Section 8.1 of this Agreement, each Party shall have the right to retain an archival copy of any records received under Section 2.10(b) to the extent required by Applicable Law or by reasonable record retention policies of the Service Provider or for the purpose of responding to regulatory requests or intraparty claims or fulfilling its obligations under Section 2.10(b).

(d) To the extent required by Applicable Law or a Governmental Authority, upon reasonable advance notice, a Service Recipient shall have the right to review and audit the applicable Service Provider’s compliance with this Agreement and the systems and procedures employed by such Service Provider in providing the Services. Any audit conducted pursuant to this Section 2.10(d) shall be conducted during normal business hours, shall employ reasonable procedures and methods as necessary and appropriate in the circumstances and shall not unreasonably interfere with the relevant Service Provider’s normal business operations. Each Service Provider shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to facilitate any audit conducted by a Service Recipient pursuant to this Section 2.10(d); provided that nothing shall require the applicable Service Provider or its Subsidiaries to provide any information or records to the extent (i) such provision would be prohibited by contract or Applicable Law or (ii) such information or records are legally privileged. In coordination with the Service Recipient, each applicable Service Provider shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to remedy in a commercially reasonable timeframe any material deficiencies determined by any audit conducted pursuant to this Section 2.10(d).

The Service Provider shall certify in writing to the Service Recipient the corrective action(s) taken and provide such additional information reasonably requested by the Service Recipient regarding such deficiencies and remedies therefor. Each Party shall bear its own costs with respect to any audits conducted pursuant to this Section 2.10(d).

(e) Each Service Provider or Service Recipient shall, or shall cause its Subsidiaries to, as promptly as reasonably practicable but in no event more than thirty (30) days following receipt of a reasonable, written request by a Service Recipient or Service Provider, as applicable, or such shorter period as may be required by Applicable Law, (i) provide the requesting Party or its designee with access to all available Service Records, including information technology records, relating to the provision of any Service to a Service Recipient or from a Service Provider, as applicable, prior to the Effective Date and (ii) respond to the requesting Party’s or its designee’s questions and requests for information, including with respect to information technology matters, regarding the provision of any Service to a Service Recipient or from a Service Provider, as applicable, prior to the Effective Date, in each case to the extent such Service Records or information are in the applicable Service Provider’s or Service Recipient’s possession or can be reasonably obtained by such Service Provider or Service Recipient without undue burden or expense. Each Party’s obligations under this paragraph will survive the termination of this Agreement, if applicable.

Section 2.11 Disclaimer of Warranties. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, (a) each Service Provider specifically disclaims all warranties of any kind, express or implied, arising out of or related to this Agreement, including any implied warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose, with respect to their respective Services, (b) each Service Provider makes no representations or warranties as to the quality, suitability or adequacy of the Services provided by the Service Provider or its Subsidiaries for any purpose or use and (c) no information or description concerning the Services, whether written or oral, shall in any way alter the Services to be provided under this Agreement, including the scope, level of service or other attributes with respect to any Service.

Section 2.12 Transition Support.

(a) The Parties acknowledge that they have been working together to mutually agree upon a written project plan for each group of Services within a functional category identified on the Schedules hereto (each project plan, a “Project Card”). Each Project Card is intended to address (i) the actions the applicable Service Provider and Service Recipient shall take to operate independently of one another or otherwise replace or migrate away from the Services included in such functional category, (ii) any inter-dependence between the actions contained in any of the various Project Cards, (iii) timelines for the commencement and conclusion of the actions and separation activities described on the Project Card, including the start date, termination date and notice required for termination for each applicable Service, and (iv) any additional reasonable assistance any Party requires from the other in connection with completion of separation activities described on the Project Card. The Project Cards are not incorporated into or made part of this Agreement. The Parties agree to reasonably cooperate in good faith to revise the Project Cards as necessary based on changes in circumstances during the term of this Agreement. In the event that the Parties revise a Project Card in a manner that results in such Project Card contradicting the relevant Schedule hereto, the Parties will act in good faith consistent with the terms of this Agreement to consider whether an amendment to this Agreement is necessary or desirable. In the event an amendment is executed, it shall be deemed to be part of this Agreement and the Services from and after the effective date of such amendment.

(b) Subject to any considerations with respect to the replacement of, or migration from, Services set forth in the Schedules, each Service Provider shall reasonably cooperate in good faith to facilitate each Service Recipient’s ability to operate independently of or otherwise replace or migrate away from each Service. Each Service Provider shall use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize (i) any disruption in connection with the receipt of Services, (ii) any quality degradation in connection with the Services and (iii) any cost to the applicable Service Recipient’s independent operation or replacement or migration away from each Service. No Service Provider shall be obligated to incur any out-of-pocket cost or expense in connection with any of the actions taken pursuant to this Section 2.12(b) unless otherwise agreed to by the Parties in writing.

Section 2.13 Exclusivity. This Agreement is not exclusive. Each Service Recipient shall be entitled to purchase the same or similar Services from any third party or may elect to internally provide any of the Services. In the event a Service Recipient elects to purchase the same or similar Services from a third party or elects to internally provide the Services, such Service Recipient shall notify the applicable Service Provider and terminate such Service pursuant to Section 4.2(b).

ARTICLE III

FEES AND PAYMENTS

Section 3.1 Fees for Services. In consideration for rendering the applicable Services pursuant to this Agreement and related Schedules, each Service Provider shall be entitled to receive a Service Fee as set forth on the applicable Schedule hereto. In the event that the applicable Service Provider or Service Recipient in good faith determines that the Service Fee for a Service needs to be revised in light of a material difference in the costs, including customary overhead allocation, actually incurred in providing the Service or any material changes anticipated as a result of changes in the scope of services or applicable requirements which the Service is intended to address, the Service Provider and Service Recipient will discuss in good faith whether an adjustment to such Service Fee is appropriate under the circumstances; provided, however, that no Party shall be obligated to agree to revisions to the Service Fee. In the event that the relevant Parties agree to an adjustment to the Service Fee, such Parties will enter into an amendment to this Agreement, amending the applicable Schedule to reflect such adjusted Service Fee, and such adjusted Service Fee shall be deemed to be part of this Agreement and the Services from and after the effective date of such amendment.

Section 3.2 Third-Party Costs. Without limiting the foregoing, unless otherwise set forth or reflected in the Schedules, each Service Recipient shall pay, or reimburse the applicable Service Provider for its payment of, all fees, costs and other expenses (including sales and service taxes), and any increases thereto, payable to a Third-Party Provider in connection with a Service provided to or, in the case of Schedule A, Schedule B or, as applicable, Schedule E, procured for such Service Recipient by the Service Provider.

Section 3.3 Billing Statements. Subject to Section 3.4, within ten (10) days following the end of each Service Period, the Service Provider shall provide to the Service Recipient an invoice (the “Billing Statement”) setting forth the Service Fees payable by the Service Recipient to the Service Provider relating to expenses incurred in the immediately preceding Service Period. The Service Recipient shall

remit the amount set forth on the Billing Statement within sixty (60) days of receipt thereof unless another time period is specified in the applicable Schedule hereto; provided that the Service Recipient shall not be required to pay the portion of any Billing Statement that is in dispute pursuant to Section 3.5 of this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, the Service Recipient shall be required to pay any undisputed portion of any Billing Statement within sixty (60) days of receipt of the Billing Statement. In the event of a quarterly, annual or longer Service Period, the Service Provider shall provide the Service Recipient with interim invoices setting forth to-date Service Fees as and to the extent agreed between such Parties.

Section 3.4 Direct Payments to Third-Party Providers. Where the Schedules hereto require the Service Recipient to pay a Service Fee directly to a Third-Party Provider, such Service Recipient shall be solely responsible for making such payment and the Service Provider shall not include such Service Fee on a Billing Statement unless the Service Fee was mistakenly billed to, and paid by, the Service Provider, in which case the Service Fee will be included on a Billing Statement pursuant to Section 3.3.

Section 3.5 Disputes Over Billing Statements or Direct Payments.

(a) The Service Recipient may contest any portion of a Billing Statement in good faith by giving written notice to the Service Provider of such Dispute on or prior to the applicable payment due date. As soon as reasonably practicable after receipt of any request from the Service Recipient, the Service Provider shall provide the Service Recipient with data and documentation supporting the calculations for any amounts included in the Billing Statement contested by the Service Recipient for purposes of verifying the accuracy of such calculation and such further documentation and information relating to the calculations of such Billing Statement as the Service Recipient may reasonably request. If the Service Provider and Service Recipient cannot resolve a Dispute over a Billing Statement, such Dispute shall be resolved pursuant to Article V and Section 9.1 of this Agreement. In the event such Dispute is resolved, the Service Recipient shall pay any outstanding and required amounts to the Service Provider within ten (10) days after the date such resolution occurs.

(b) Where the Schedules hereto require the Service Recipient to pay a Service Fee directly to a Third-Party Provider, to the extent permitted under the Third-Party Contract, such Service Recipient shall resolve any dispute over a payment directly with the Third-Party Provider. The Service Provider shall reasonably cooperate in good faith to assist the Service Recipient in resolving any such dispute.

Section 3.6 Taxes.

(a) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Parties’ respective responsibilities for Taxes arising under or in connection with this Agreement shall be as set forth in this Section 3.6.

(b) Each Party shall be responsible for:

(i) any personal property Taxes on property it uses, regardless of whether such property is owned or leased;

(ii) franchise and privilege Taxes on its business;

(iii) Taxes based on its net income or gross receipts; and

(iv) Taxes based on the employment or wages of its employees, including Federal Insurance Contributions Act Taxes, Medicare, unemployment, worker’s compensation and other similar Taxes.

(c) Each Service Provider shall be responsible for any sales, use, excise, value-added, services, consumption and other Taxes payable by such Service Provider on the goods or services used or consumed by such Service Provider in providing the Services.

(d) Each Service Recipient shall be responsible for any sales, use, excise, value-added, services, consumption and other Taxes that are assessed on the provision of the particular Service to such Service Recipient, to the extent the Service Provider is not responsible for such Taxes pursuant to Section 3.6(c).

(e) Each Service Recipient will make all payments to the Service Provider under this Agreement without deduction or withholding for Taxes except to the extent that any such deduction or withholding is required by Applicable Law in effect at the time of payment. Any Tax required to be withheld on amounts payable under this Agreement will promptly be paid by the Service Recipient to the appropriate Governmental Authority, and the Service Recipient will furnish the Service Provider with proof of payment of such Tax. If a Service Recipient is required under Applicable Law to withhold any Tax from any payment made pursuant to this Agreement, the Service Recipient will pay such additional amounts as may be necessary in order that the Service Provider receives the full amount due hereunder as if there was no withholding Tax, except to the extent that the amount so withheld is attributable to the Service Provider’s failure to comply with the Service Recipient’s reasonable request to deliver properly completed and executed documentation contemplated by Section 3.6(f).

(f) The Parties shall cooperate with one another in good faith to determine and to minimize the Taxes described in Section 3.6(c) to Section 3.6(e) of this Agreement, including by providing reasonable documentation evidencing any available exemption from, or reduction of, any such Taxes.

ARTICLE IV

Section 4.1 Term.

(a) Each Service will be provided for the duration of the applicable Transition Period and will lapse automatically thereafter or at the time such Service is terminated prior to the expiration of the Transition Period in accordance with Section 4.2(a) or Section 4.2(b); provided that if a Third-Party Contract underlying a Service is renewed or extended on or prior to the date that is one (1) month following the expiration of the Transition Period, the Transition Period for such Service shall be automatically extended until the earlier of (i) the termination date of the renewed or extended Third-Party Contract, (ii) the date on which the Third-Party Provider is no longer contractually required to provide the Service to or for the Service Recipient pursuant to a divestiture clause or similar provision (if any) in the renewed or extended Third Party Contract and (iii) the date on which the applicable Service or the Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 4.2 hereof.

In the event of termination of a particular Service under this Section 4.1(b), the applicable Service Recipient shall only be responsible for the portion of the Service Fee that covers the portion of the Service provided or procured by the Service Provider through the effective date of the termination of such Service .

(c) If the Service Recipient elects to terminate any particular Service pursuant to Section 4.2(b), and the Service Provider reasonably determines and provides the Service Recipient with written notice prior to the termination of such Service that such termination will adversely affect the ability of any Service Provider to provide any other Service or portion of any other Service in any material respect, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to amend the applicable Schedule relating to such affected continuing Service. If the Parties enter into an amendment to this Agreement, amending the applicable Schedule to reflect the affected Service, including any adjustments to the Service Fee, such amendment shall be deemed to be part of this Agreement and the Services from and after the effective date of such amendment. The applicable Service Provider and Service Recipient agree to each use their commercially reasonable efforts to minimize the impact of the termination of any Service on the remainder of this Agreement.

Section 4.3 Transition Support Following Termination. Following the termination or expiry of any particular Service, each Service Provider shall provide (or cause to be provided) to the relevant Service Recipient upon such Service Recipient’s request, at such Service Recipient’s sole cost and expense, any reasonable cooperation and assistance reasonably requested by the Service Recipient for the transition from Services to replacement services, whether such replacement services are to be provided by the Service Recipient or any other person, including without limitation allocating and providing commercially reasonable access to appropriate personnel and making available (or having made available) on a timely basis to such Service Recipient all non-privileged and non-confidential information and materials reasonably requested by the Services Recipient about the applicable Services and the information technology systems used in connection with the provision of such Services.

Section 4.4 Extension of Transition Period. In connection with the termination of any Service, if the Service Recipient reasonably determines that it will require such Service to continue beyond the applicable Transition Period, the Service Recipient may request that the Service Provider extend such Service (any such extension, a “Service Extension”) for a specified period beyond the scheduled termination of such Service by written notice to the Service Provider no less than thirty (30) days prior to the date of such scheduled termination, and the Service Provider shall consider any such request in good faith; provided, however, that no Service Provider shall be obligated to agree to any Service Extension, including because, after good faith negotiations between the applicable Service Provider and the Service Recipient, the applicable Service Provider and Service Recipient fail to reach an agreement with respect to the terms thereof; provided, further, that the Service Provider shall not be obligated to provide such Service Extension if a third-party consent is required and cannot be obtained by the Service Provider using commercially reasonable efforts; provided, further, that in no event shall a Service be extended pursuant to this Section 4.4 if the Third-Party Provider or Service Provider is no longer contractually permitted to provide such Service pursuant to the terms of the underlying contract governing the provision of the Service. In the event that a Service Provider agrees to provide a Service Extension, the Parties will reasonably cooperate in good faith to revise the applicable Project Card pursuant to Section 2.12(a) and will enter into an amendment to this Agreement, amending the applicable Schedule to reflect such Service Extension, including any adjustments to the Service Fee during the proposed extension, and such Service Extension shall be deemed to be part of this Agreement and the Services from and after the effective date of such amendment.

Section 6.2 Procedure for Indemnification of Third-Party Claims.

(a) Notice of Claim. If, at or following the Effective Date, any Indemnitee shall receive notice or otherwise learn of a Third-Party Claim with respect to which another Party (an “Indemnifying Party”) may be obligated to provide indemnification to such Indemnitee pursuant to Section 6.1, such Indemnitee shall give such Indemnifying Party written notice thereof as soon as practicable but in any event within twenty (20) days (or sooner if the nature of the Third-Party Claim so requires) of becoming aware of such Third-Party Claim. Any such notice shall describe the Third-Party Claim in reasonable detail, including the facts and circumstances giving rise to such claim for indemnification, and include copies of all notices and documents (including court papers) received by the Indemnitee relating to the Third-Party Claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the failure of any Indemnitee or other Person to give notice as provided in this Section 6.2(a) shall not relieve the related Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Article VI, except to the extent that such Indemnifying Party is actually prejudiced by such failure to give notice and then only to the extent of such prejudice.

(b) Control of Defense. An Indemnifying Party may elect to defend, at such Indemnifying Party’s own expense and by such Indemnifying Party’s own counsel, any Third- Party Claim. Within twenty (20) days after the receipt of notice from an Indemnitee in accordance with Section 6.2(a) (or sooner, if the nature of such Third-Party Claim so requires), the Indemnifying Party shall notify the Indemnitee of its election as to whether the Indemnifying Party will assume responsibility for defending such Third-Party Claim. After notice from an Indemnifying Party to an Indemnitee of its election to assume the defense of a Third-Party Claim, such Indemnitee shall have the right to employ separate counsel and to monitor and participate in (but not control) the defense, compromise or settlement thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be the expense of such Indemnitee, except that the Indemnifying Party shall be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel employed by the Indemnitee (i) for any period during which the Indemnifying Party has not assumed the defense of such Third-Party Claim (other than during any period in which the Indemnitee shall have failed to give notice of the Third-Party Claim in accordance with Section 6.2(a) and (ii) if a conflict exists between the positions of the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnitee, as reasonably determined in good faith by the Indemnitee, and the Indemnitee believes it is in the Indemnitee’s best interest to obtain independent counsel. The Party controlling the defense of any Third-Party Claim shall keep the non-controlling Party advised of the status thereof and shall consider in good faith any recommendations made by the non-controlling Party with respect thereto.

(c) If an Indemnifying Party elects not to assume responsibility for defending a Third-Party Claim, or fails to notify an Indemnitee of its election as provided in Section 6.2(b), such Indemnitee may defend such Third-Party Claim at the cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party.

(d) If an Indemnifying Party elects to assume the defense of a Third-Party Claim in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Indemnitee shall agree to any settlement, compromise or discharge of such Third-Party Claim that the Indemnifying Party may recommend and that by its terms obligates the Indemnifying Party to pay the full amount of the liability in connection with such Third-Party Claim and that releases the Indemnitee completely in connection with such Third-Party Claim; provided that Indemnitee shall not be required to admit any fault.

(e) No Indemnifying Party shall consent to an entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement of any Third-Party Claim without the consent of the applicable Indemnitee or Indemnitees if the effect thereof is to permit any injunction, declaratory judgment, other order or other nonmonetary relief to be entered, directly or indirectly, against any Indemnitee.

(f) Whether or not the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of a Third-Party Claim, no Indemnitee shall admit any liability with respect to, or settle, compromise or discharge, such Third-Party Claim without the Indemnifying Party’s prior written consent which shall not be unreasonably withheld.

Section 6.3 Additional Matters.

(a) Notice of Direct Claims. Any claim on account of a Loss that does not result from a Third-Party Claim shall be asserted by written notice given by the Indemnitee to the related Indemnifying Party as soon as practicable but in any event within twenty (20) days after becoming aware of such claim; provided that the failure of any Indemnitee to give notice as provided in this Section 6.3(a) shall not prejudice the ability of the Indemnitee to do so at a later time except to the extent that such Indemnifying Party is actually prejudiced by such failure to give notice and then only to the extent of such prejudice. Such Indemnifying Party shall have a period of thirty (30) days after the receipt of such notice within which to respond thereto. If such Indemnifying Party does not respond within such 30-day period, such Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have refused to accept responsibility to make payment. If such Indemnifying Party does not respond within such 30-day period or rejects such claim in whole or in part, such Indemnitee shall be free to pursue such remedies as may be available to such Party as contemplated by this Agreement.

(b) Subrogation. In the event of payment by or on behalf of any Indemnifying Party to any Indemnitee in connection with any Third-Party Claim, such Indemnifying Party shall be subrogated to and shall stand in the place of such Indemnitee as to any events or circumstances in respect of which such Indemnitee may have any right, defense or claim relating to such Third-Party Claim against any claimant or plaintiff asserting such Third-Party Claim or against any other Person. Such Indemnitee shall cooperate with such Indemnifying Party in a reasonable manner, and at the cost and expense of such Indemnifying Party, in prosecuting any subrogated right, defense or claim.

(c) Substitution. In the event of an Action in which the Indemnifying Party is not a named defendant, if either the Indemnitee or Indemnifying Party shall so request, the Parties shall endeavor to substitute the Indemnifying Party for the named defendant, or add the Indemnifying Party as an additional named defendant. If such substitution or addition cannot be achieved for any reason or is not requested, the named defendant shall allow the Indemnifying Party to manage the Action as set forth in Section 6.2 and this Section 6.3, and the Indemnifying Party shall fully indemnify the named defendant against all costs of defending the Action (including court costs, sanctions imposed by a court, attorneys’ fees, experts’ fees and all other external expenses), the costs of any judgment or settlement and the cost of any interest or penalties relating to any judgment or settlement other than costs arising as a result of the negligence of the defendant.

(d) Good Faith. Subject to the other provisions of this Article VI, each Indemnitee shall act in good faith, and will make the same decisions in the use of personnel and the incurring of expenses as it would make if it were engaged and acting entirely at its own cost and for its own account regarding the conduct of any proceedings or the taking of any action for which indemnification may be sought.

(e) Duty to Mitigate. Each Indemnitee shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate any Loss that is subject to indemnification pursuant to the provisions of Section 6.1. In the event an Indemnitee fails to so mitigate a Loss, the Indemnifying Party shall have no liability for any portion of such Loss that reasonably could have been avoided had the Indemnitee made such efforts.

(f) Survival. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, each Party’s obligations under this Article VI with respect to a particular Service will survive the termination of such Service for a period of one (1) year following such termination.

Section 6.4 Payments. The Indemnifying Party shall pay all amounts payable pursuant to this Article VI, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, promptly following receipt from an Indemnitee of a bill, together with all accompanying reasonably detailed back-up documentation, for a Loss that is the subject of indemnification under this Agreement, unless the Indemnifying Party in good faith disputes the Loss, in which event it shall so notify the Indemnitee. In any event, the Indemnifying Party shall pay to the Indemnitee, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, the amount of any Loss for which the Indemnifying Party is liable under this Agreement no later than three (3) Business Days or any longer period of time mutually agreed to by the relevant Parties in writing following any Final Determination of any dispute with respect to such Loss finding the Indemnifying Party’s liability therefor. All payments made pursuant to this Article VI shall be made in U.S. dollars.

This Agreement (including the Schedules hereto) represents the entire understanding of the Parties hereto with respect to the provision or procurement of services contemplated hereby among the Parties hereto and supersedes any and all other oral or written agreements heretofore made with respect to such subject matter. Other than as set forth in Article VI with respect to the Indemnitees and as expressly set forth elsewhere in this Agreement, nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any person, other than the Parties, their Subsidiaries, and each of their and their Subsidiaries’ respective successors and permitted assigns, any rights or remedies under or by reason of this Agreement. Only the Parties that are signatories to this Agreement (and their respective Subsidiaries and each of their and their Subsidiaries’ permitted successors and assigns) shall have any obligation or liability under, in connection with, arising out of, resulting from or in any way related to this Agreement or any other matter contemplated hereby, or the process leading up to the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, subject to the provisions of this Agreement.

Wherever a Party to this Agreement has an obligation under this Agreement to “cause” a Subsidiary of such Party or any such Subsidiary’s officers, directors, management or employees to take, or refrain from taking, any action, or such action may be necessary to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, such obligation of such Party shall be deemed to include an undertaking on the part of such Party to cause such Subsidiary to take such necessary action. Wherever this Agreement provides that a Subsidiary of a Party has an obligation to take, or refrain from taking any action, such Party shall be deemed to have an obligation under this Agreement to cause such Subsidiary or any such Subsidiary’s officers, directors, management or employees to take, or refrain from taking, any action, or such action as may be necessary to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement.

The other Party shall not oppose the granting of such relief. The Parties agree that the remedies at law for any breach or threatened breach hereof, including monetary damages, are inadequate compensation for any loss and that any defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate is waived.
