3.2		Refunds.
		Any refund of Taxes resulting from an adjustment made to a Tax Return that includes one or more LPS Group companies on the one hand, and FIS Group companies on the other, shall be allocated in a manner such that a party responsible for indemnification of a Tax liability for a particular Taxable Period pursuant to either Section 4 or Section 5 of this Agreement will be entitled to any refunds with respect to such Tax for such Taxable Period, except as provided in Section 3.1.

	(a)		Notwithstanding whether any action is permitted or consented to hereunder and notwithstanding anything else to the contrary contained herein, LPS shall indemnify and hold harmless FIS from and against, and will reimburse FIS for all Taxes and Adverse Consequences arising out of, based upon or relating or attributable to (i) any breach of or inaccuracy in any representation, covenant or obligation of any member of the LPS Group under Section 5.1 or 5.2 of this Agreement or (ii) the Transactions to the extent such Taxes or Adverse Consequences arise as a result of any action taken by LPS or any member of the LPS Group (other than the repayment of the LPS Securities prior to the stated maturity in accordance with the terms of the LPS Securities) following the Distribution and, in the case of Adverse Consequences, arise as a result of the imposition of Taxes on FIS, LPS or the FIS stockholders. For the avoidance of doubt, LPS shall not be relieved of its obligations under this Section 5.3(a) merely because it has satisfied the LPS Capital Transactions Process.
	(b)		Notwithstanding whether any action is permitted or consented to hereunder and notwithstanding anything else to the contrary contained herein, FIS shall indemnify and hold harmless LPS, on an After-Tax Basis, from and against, and will reimburse LPS for all Taxes and Adverse Consequences arising out of, based upon or relating or attributable to (i) any breach of or inaccuracy in any representation, covenant or obligation of any member of the FIS Group under Section 5.1 or 5.2 of this Agreement or (ii) the Transactions to the extent such Taxes or Adverse Consequences arise as a result of any action taken by FIS or any member of the FIS Group following the Distribution and, in the case of Adverse Consequences, arise as a result of the imposition of Taxes on FIS, LPS or the FIS stockholders.

5.4		Indemnification Payments.
		The payments of any indemnification required under this Section 5 shall be made in accordance with the terms of Sections 4.3 and 4.4 of this Agreement.

SECTION 6. AUDITS AND CONTEST RIGHTS.

6.1		Notice.
		If, after the Distribution Date, any member of a Tax Group receives written notice of, or relating to, an Audit from a Tax Authority that asserts, proposes or recommends a deficiency, claim or adjustment that, if sustained, could result in Taxes for which any member of the Other Tax Group is responsible under this Agreement, then the Tax Group Parent of the Tax Group receiving such notice shall provide or cause to be provided a copy of such notice to the Other Tax Group promptly thereafter, but, in any case, within ten (10) Business Days of receipt thereof. Each Tax Group Parent shall forward or cause to be forwarded to the Other Tax Group relevant portions of any reports or other communications which relate to such matters.

6.2

Contests.

	(a)		Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the respective Filing Party shall have the right to control, contest, and represent the interest of any FIS Group company or any LPS Group company in any Contest relating to any Tax Return described in Section 2.2 or 2.3 of this Agreement (other than a Tax Return described in Section 6.2(b) or (c) of this Agreement) and, subject to Section 6.4(b) of this Agreement, to resolve, settle or agree to any deficiency, claim or adjustment proposed, asserted or assessed in connection with or as a result of any such Contest. The Filing Party’s rights shall extend to any matter pertaining to the management and control of an Audit, including execution of waivers, choice of forum, scheduling of conferences and the resolution of any Tax Item.
	(b)		Except as otherwise provided herein, after the date of execution of this Agreement, in the case of a Contest that relates to a Tax Return for a Taxable Period beginning before the Distribution Date (or any item relating thereto or reported thereon) which would give rise to an Indemnification Liability under this Agreement, of an Indemnifying Party that is not the Filing Party with respect to such Tax Return, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right at its expense to participate in and control the conduct of such Contest. If the Indemnifying Party does not assume the defense of any such Contest for a Pre-Distribution Period, the Filing Party may defend the same in such manner as it may deem appropriate, including, but not limited to, settling such Contest after giving ten (10) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Indemnifying Party setting forth the terms and conditions of settlement. In the event of a Contest covered by the first sentence of this paragraph that involves issues (i) relating to a potential adjustment for which the Indemnifying Party has liability and (ii) that are required to be dealt with in a proceeding that also involves separate issues relating to a potential adjustment for which any Indemnitee would be liable, the Indemnitee shall have the right at its expense to control the Contest but only with respect to the latter issues.

	(c)		With respect to a Contest involving an issue for which both (i) any FIS Group company and (ii) any LPS Group company could be liable, both parties may participate in the Contest, and the Contest may be controlled by that party which would bear the burden of the greater portion of the sum of the adjustment and any corresponding adjustments that may reasonably be anticipated for future Taxable Periods. The principle set forth in the immediately preceding sentence shall govern also for purposes of deciding any issue that must be decided jointly (including, without limitation, choice of judicial forum) in situations in which separate issues are otherwise controlled under this Section 6.2 by FIS or by LPS.
	(d)		The party that is controlling any Contest pursuant to Sections 6.2(b) and (c) of this Agreement (the “Controlling Party”):

	(i)		in the case of any material correspondence or filing submitted to the Tax Authority or any judicial authority that relates to the merits of the deficiency, claim or adjustment that is the subject of such Contest shall (A) reasonably in advance of such submission, but subject to applicable time constraints imposed by such Tax Authority or judicial authority, provide the other party (the “Non-Controlling Party”) with a draft copy of the portion of such correspondence or filing that relates to such deficiency, claim or adjustment, (B) incorporate, subject to applicable time constraints imposed by such Tax Authority or judicial authority, the Non-Controlling Party’s reasonable comments and changes on such draft copy of such correspondence or filing, and (C) provide the Non-Controlling Party with a final copy of the portion of such correspondence or filing that relates such deficiency, claim or adjustment; and
	(ii)		shall provide the Non-Controlling Party with notice reasonably in advance of, and the Non-Controlling Party shall have the right to attend, any meetings with the Tax Authority (including meetings with examiners) or hearings or proceedings before any judicial authority to the extent they relate to the deficiency, claim or adjustment that is the subject of such Contest.

6.3		Judicial Appeals.
		In the event that a judgment of the United States Tax Court or other court of competent jurisdiction results in an adverse determination with respect to a matter described in Sections 6.2(b) and (c) of this Agreement, then, subject to Section 6.4(b):

(a)

In the case of an appeal of an adverse determination, which involves no material issues other than matters for which the Non-Filing Party would be the Indemnifying Party pursuant to this Agreement, the Non-Filing Party shall have the right to cause the Filing Party to appeal from such adverse determination.

	(b)		In the case of an appeal of any other adverse determination which involves material issues other than those for which the Non-Filing Party would be the Indemnifying Party pursuant to this Agreement and the Filing Party determines not to appeal such adverse determination, the Non-Filing Party shall have the right to cause the Filing Party to appeal from such adverse determination if the Non-Filing Party delivers to the Filing Party an opinion from an independent tax counsel or accountant selected by the Non-Filing Party and reasonably acceptable to the Filing Party that it is more likely than not that such appeal will succeed and the amount in controversy exceeds $100,000. The Filing Party shall give written notice to the Non-Filing Party of its determination of whether to appeal an adverse determination pursuant to this Section 6.3(b) not less than 20 days prior to any applicable filing deadline.
	(c)		In the case of an adverse determination which involves matters for which the Filing Party would be the Indemnifying Party pursuant to this Agreement and, within such determination, material matters for which the Non-Filing Party would be the Indemnifying Party pursuant to this Agreement were favorably disposed, the Non-Filing Party shall have the right to prevent the Filing Party from appealing from such adverse determination unless the Filing Party delivers to the Non-Filing Party an opinion from an independent tax counsel selected by the Filing Party and reasonably acceptable to the Non-Filing Party that it is more likely than not that such appeal will succeed.
	(d)		If the Non-Filing Party causes the Filing Party to appeal any adverse determination pursuant to this Section 6.3, the Non-Filing Party shall pay the reasonable costs, including legal fees, of the Filing Party incurred in such appeal.

6.4

Limitations.

(a)

The Non-Filing Party shall have a right to contest any deficiency, claim or adjustment in accordance with Section 6.2 of this Agreement only if:

	(i)		within thirty (30) Business Days of a reasonable request by the Filing Party, the Non-Filing Party delivers to the Filing Party a written opinion of a nationally recognized tax attorney or tax accountant that is a member of a recognized law firm or accounting firm, to the effect that the Non-Filing Party’s position with respect to such deficiency, claim or adjustment is supported by a reasonable basis (within the meaning of section 1.6662-3(b)(3) of the Treasury Regulations); provided that this Section 6.4(a)(i) shall not apply to with respect to positions relating to the Tax consequences of the Distribution.
	(ii)		the Non-Filing Party has agreed to be bound by a Final Determination of such deficiency, claim or adjustment;

	(iii)		the Non-Filing Party has agreed to pay, and is currently paying, all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Filing Party to contest such deficiency, claim or assessment including reasonable outside attorneys’, accountants’ and investigatory fees and disbursements to the extent such costs relate to the issue being contested by the Non-Filing Party;
	(iv)		the Non-Filing Party shall have advanced to the Filing Party, on an interest-free basis (and with no additional net after-tax cost to the Filing Party), the amount of Tax in controversy (but not in excess of the lesser of (A) the amount of Tax for which the Non-Filing Party could be liable under this Agreement or (B) the amounts actually expended by the Filing Party for this item) to the extent necessary for the contest to proceed in the forum selected by the Controlling Party; and
	(v)		the Non-Filing Party shall have provided to the Filing Party all documents and information, and shall have made available employees and officers of the Non-Filing Party, as have been reasonably requested by the Filing Party in contesting such deficiency, claim or adjustment.

	(b)		The Filing Party shall not settle, compromise or otherwise resolve any Tax matter relating to Taxes with respect to a Pre-Distribution Period (a “Tax Settlement”) without the prior written consent of the Non-Filing Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) if such Tax Settlement is reasonably likely to materially increase the Tax paid by the Non-Filing Party with respect to any Tax not subject to indemnification under this Agreement; provided, however, that in the event that the Non-Filing Party does not consent and the Filing Party reasonably believes that the withholding of consent was unreasonable, or the Filing Party reasonably believes that no consent of the Non-Filing Party is required, the parties shall resolve their disagreement in accordance with Section 8.5 of this Agreement.
	(c)		Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 6.4, the Filing Party may resolve, settle, or agree to any deficiency, claim or adjustment for any Taxable Period if the Filing Party waives its right to indemnity with respect to such Tax Item. In such event, the Filing Party shall promptly reimburse the Non-Filing Party for all amounts previously advanced by the Non-Filing Party to the Filing Party in connection with such deficiency, claim or adjustment under Section 6.4(a)(iv) of this Agreement. In addition, except with respect to settlements described in Section 6.4(b) above, the Filing Party shall reimburse the Non-Filing Party for any Tax Detriment that directly results from the settlement of such deficiency, claim or adjustment. No waiver by the Filing Party under this Section 6.4(c) with respect to any deficiency, claim or adjustment relating to any single Tax Item, position, issue or transaction or relating to any single Tax for any one Taxable Period shall operate as a waiver with respect to any other deficiency, claim or adjustment.

6.5		Failure to Notify.
		The failure of the Filing Party promptly to notify the Non-Filing Party of any matter relating to a particular Tax for a Taxable Period or to take any action specified in Section 6.2 of this Agreement shall not relieve the Non-Filing Party of any liability and/or obligation which it may have to the Filing Party under this Agreement with respect to such Tax for such Taxable Period except to the extent that the Non-Filing Party’s rights hereunder are materially prejudiced by such failure and in no event shall such failure relieve the Non-Filing Party of any other liability and/or obligation which it may have to the Filing Party.
6.6		Remedies.
		Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the parties hereby agree that the sole and exclusive remedy for a breach by the Filing Party of the Filing Party’s obligations to the Non-Filing Party with respect to a deficiency, claim or adjustment relating to the redetermination of a Tax Item of the Non-Filing Party for a Taxable Period shall first be a reduction in the amount that would otherwise be payable by the Non-Filing Party for such Taxable Period and then an increase in amount that would otherwise be payable by the Filing Party for such Taxable Period, in either case because of the breach. The parties further agree that no claim against the Filing Party and no defense to the Non-Filing Party’s liabilities to the Filing Party under this Agreement shall arise from the resolution by the Filing Party of any deficiency, claim or adjustment relating to the redetermination of any Tax Item of the Filing Party.

SECTION 7. COOPERATION.

7.1		Provision of Information and Documents.
		FIS and LPS shall cooperate and provide each other with all documents and information, and provide access to employees and officers of any member of the FIS Group or the LPS Group, respectively, as reasonably requested by the other party, on a mutually convenient basis during normal business hours (and promptly reimburse the other party for any out-of-pocket costs incurred by a party in providing such cooperation) to aid the other party in preparing any Tax Return described in Section 2.2 or 2.3 of this Agreement or to contest any Audit of any such Tax Return or to obtain any opinion referred to in Section 5.2, including, without limitation, the making of representations (to the extent such representations are true) in connection with obtaining any such opinion. Such cooperation shall include, without limitation:

(a)

the retention and provision on reasonable request of any and all information including all books, records, documentation or other information, any necessary explanations of information, and access to personnel, until the expiration of the applicable statute of limitation for additional assessments of Tax for the Taxable Period for which such document or other information arises (giving effect to any extension, waiver, or mitigation thereof);

	(b)		within the limits otherwise set forth herein, the execution by such party of any document that is relevant and may be necessary or helpful in connection with any Tax Return or in connection with any Contest;
	(c)		the use of the parties’ reasonable best efforts to obtain any documentation from a governmental authority or a third party that may be necessary or helpful in connection with the foregoing; and
	(d)		informing the other party on a timely basis as to the status and progress of all matters related to a Contest under Section 6.2 of this Agreement. Each party shall provide the other party, within 10 days of the receipt thereof, with copies of all written communications received from any Tax Authority relating to any such Contest, appropriately redacted for any unrelated issues also discussed therein.

7.2		Special Rules Regarding Information Required for Tax Return Preparation.
		The Non-Filing Party will provide employees or representatives of the Filing Party responsible for preparing its Tax Returns access to any relevant information, including any Ruling Documents, Opinion Documents, or Tax Opinion, not in the possession of the Filing Party, as it relates to the Filing Party or any member of the Filing Group, and will provide the Filing Party with a copy of such relevant information to the extent that the issues discussed therein are relevant to the Filing Party or any member of the Filing Group within a reasonable time thereafter, but, in any case, not later than five (5) Business Days after the receipt of a written request therefor.
7.3		Consultations With Regard to Tax Items.
		FIS and LPS shall advise and consult with each other with respect to any Tax election or the Tax treatment of any item (including the treatment of any item that would be affected by a proposed Tax adjustment relating to a Consolidated Return or Combined Return which is the subject of an Audit or investigation, or is the subject of any proceeding or litigation) which could affect any Tax attribute of the other party or the Other Tax Group (including, but not limited to, basis in an asset or the amount of earnings and profits).
7.4		Limitations on Cooperation.
		In the event that a Filing Party determines that the provision of any information to any member of the Other Tax Group could be commercially detrimental, violate any law or agreement, or waive any privilege that may be asserted under applicable law including any privilege arising under or relating to the attorney-client relationship (including the attorney-client and work product privileges), the parties shall take reasonable measures to permit the compliance with such obligations in a manner that avoids any such harm or consequence.

SECTION 8. MISCELLANEOUS.

8.1		Effectiveness.
		This Agreement shall become effective as of the Distribution Date.
8.2		Notices.
		All notices and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and hand delivered or mailed by registered or certified mail (return receipt requested) or sent by any means of electronic message transmission with delivery confirmed (by voice or otherwise) to the parties at the following addresses (or at such other addresses for a party as shall be specified by like notice) and will be deemed given on the date on which such notice is received:

And to such other persons or places as each party may from time to time designate by written notice sent as aforesaid.

8.3

Changes in Law.

	(a)		Any reference to a provision of the Code or any other Tax law shall include a reference to any applicable successor provision or law.
	(b)		If, due to any change in applicable law or regulations or their interpretation by any court of law or other governing body having jurisdiction subsequent to the Distribution Date, performance of any provision of this Agreement or any transaction contemplated thereby shall become impracticable or impossible, the parties hereto shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to find and employ an alternative means to achieve the same or substantially the same result as that contemplated by such provision.

8.4		Consent.
		Whenever this Agreement specifies that consent is not to be unreasonably withheld, the determination shall take into account, among other things, the relative amount of potential Tax exposure or refund involved for FIS Group companies on the one hand and the LPS Group companies on the other hand, and if the consent relates to bringing proceedings in one venue rather than another, the impact on such decision on such interests of each group. Any controversy or refusal of consent shall be resolved pursuant to Section 8.5 of this Agreement.
8.5		Dispute Resolution.

	(a)		Amicable Resolution. FIS and LPS mutually desire that friendly collaboration continue between them. Accordingly, they will try, and they will cause their respective group members to try, to resolve in an amicable manner all disagreements and misunderstandings connected with their respective rights and obligations under this Agreement. In furtherance thereof, in the event of any dispute or disagreement (a “Dispute”) between any FIS Group member and any LPS Group member as to the interpretation of any provision of this Agreement (or the performance of obligations hereunder), the matter, upon written request of either party, will be referred for resolution to a steering committee established pursuant to Section 7.3(a) of the Distribution Agreement (the “Steering Committee”). The Steering Committee will have two members, one of whom will be appointed by FIS and the other of whom will be appointed by LPS, and each of whom shall be a senior executive of the party appointing the member. The Steering Committee will make a good faith effort to promptly resolve all Disputes referred to it. Steering Committee decisions will be unanimous and will be binding on FIS and LPS. If the Steering Committee does not agree to a resolution of a Dispute within 30 days after the reference of the matter to it, then the parties will be free to exercise the remedies available to them under applicable law, subject to Sections 8.5(b) and 8.5(c).
	(b)		Mediation. If the Steering Committee is unable to resolve any Dispute as contemplated by Section 8.5(a), either FIS or LPS may demand mediation of the Dispute by written notice to the other in which case the two parties will select a mediator within 14 days after the demand. Neither party may unreasonably withhold consent to the selection of the mediator. Each of FIS and LPS will bear its own costs of mediation but both parties will share the costs of the mediator equally.
	(c)		Arbitration. In the event that the Dispute is not resolved in an amicable manner as set forth in Section 8.5(a) or through mediation pursuant to Section 8.5(b), the latter within 30 days of the submission of the Dispute to mediation, either party

			involved in the Dispute may submit the dispute to binding arbitration pursuant to this Section 8.5(c). All Disputes submitted to arbitration pursuant to this Section 8.5(c) shall be resolved in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association, unless either party involved elects to utilize an independent referee (“Referee”) mutually acceptable to the parties, in which event all references herein to the American Arbitration Association shall be deemed modified accordingly. Expedited rules shall apply regardless of the amount at issue. Arbitration proceedings hereunder may be initiated by either party making a written request to the American Arbitration Association, together with any appropriate filing fee, at the office of the American Arbitration Association in Orlando, Florida. The arbitration shall be by a single qualified arbitrator (“Arbitrator”) experienced in the matters at issue, such Arbitrator to be mutually agreed upon by FIS and LPS. If the parties fail to agree on an Arbitrator within 30 days after notice of commencement of arbitration, the American Arbitration Association shall, upon the request of any party to the dispute or difference, appoint the Arbitrator. All arbitration proceedings shall be held in the city of Jacksonville, Florida in a location to be specified by the Arbitrator (or any place agreed to by the parties and the Arbitrator). Any order or determination of the arbitral tribunal shall be final and binding upon the parties to the arbitration as to matters submitted and may be enforced by any party to the Dispute in any court having jurisdiction over the subject matter or over any of the parties. The parties agree that the length of time to be provided in any arbitration action to conduct discovery shall be limited to 90 days, the length of time to conduct the arbitration hearing shall be limited to ten days (with each party having equal time) and that the Arbitrator shall be required to render his or her decision within 30 days of the completion of the arbitration hearing. All costs and expenses incurred by the Arbitrator shall be shared equally by the parties. Each party shall bear its own costs and expenses in connection with any such arbitration proceeding. The use of any alternative dispute resolution procedures hereunder will not be construed under the doctrines of laches, waiver or estoppel to affect adversely the rights of either party.
	(d)		Non-Exclusive Remedy.

	i.		Nothing in this Section 8.5 shall prevent either FIS or LPS from commencing formal litigation proceedings or seeking injunctive or similar relief if any delay resulting from efforts to mediate such Dispute could result in serious and irreparable injury to FIS, LPS or any member of either party’s group.
	ii.		Nothing in this Section 8.5 shall prevent either FIS or LPS from immediately seeking injunctive or interim relief in the event of any actual or threatened breach of any confidentiality provisions of the Distribution Agreement. If an arbitral tribunal has not been appointed with respect to

any Dispute at the time of such actual or threatened breach, then either party may seek such injunctive or interim relief from any court with jurisdiction over the matter. If an arbitral tribunal has been appointed with respect to any Dispute at the time of such actual or threatened breach, then the parties agree to submit to the jurisdiction of the state and federal courts of Duval County, Florida, pursuant to Section 7.2 of the Distribution Agreement, with respect to such matter.

(e)

Commencement of Dispute Resolution Procedure. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, FIS and LPS are the only members of their respective group entitled to commence a dispute resolution procedure under this Agreement, whether pursuant to this Section 8.5 or otherwise, and each party will cause its respective group members not to commence any dispute resolution procedure other than through such party as provided in this Section 8.5(e).

8.6		Authorization.
		Each of the parties hereto hereby represents and warrants (a) that it has the power and authority to execute, deliver and perform this Agreement, (b) that this Agreement has been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of each such party, (c) that this Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of each such party and (d) that the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by such party does not contravene or conflict with any provision of law or of its charter or bylaws or any agreement, instrument or order binding on such party.
8.7		Successors.
		The provisions to this Agreement shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.
8.8		Assignment.
		Except for assignments or transfers by operation of law, this Agreement shall not be assignable, in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, by any party hereto without the prior written consent of the other party hereto, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, and any attempt to assign any rights or obligations arising under this Agreement without such consent shall be void.
8.9		Entire Agreement.
		This Agreement contains the entire agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and shall supersede all previous negotiations, commitments and writings with respect to such subject matter.

8.10		Governing Law.
		This Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida applicable to contracts made and to be performed in the State of Florida.
8.11		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 such counterparts have been signed by each of the parties and delivered to the other parties.
8.12		Severability.
		In the event any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. The parties shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions, the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions.
8.13		No Third Party Beneficiaries.
		Except as otherwise provided herein, this Agreement is solely for the benefit of the FIS Group and the LPS Group. This Agreement should not be deemed to confer upon third parties any remedy, claim, liability, reimbursement, claim of action or other rights in excess of those existing without reference to this Agreement.
8.14		Waivers.
		The failure of any party to require strict performance by any other party of any provision in this Agreement will not waive or diminish that party’s right to demand strict performance thereafter of that or any other provision hereof.
8.15		Setoff.
		All payments to be made by any party under this Agreement may be netted against payments due to such party under this Agreement, but otherwise shall be made without setoff, counterclaim or withholding, all of which are hereby expressly waived.
8.16		Amendments.
		This Agreement may not be modified or amended except by an agreement in writing signed by each of the parties hereto.

8.17		Schedules.
		Schedules I and II shall be construed with and as an integral part of this Agreement to the same extent as if the same had been set forth verbatim herein.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, each of the parties hereto has caused this Agreement to be executed by a duly authorized officer as of the date first above written.

Schedule I

1.

Any Federal Income Tax to be allocated to a Consolidated Group or to any member thereof in accordance with this Agreement shall be allocated on the basis of the Hypothetical Tax of the Consolidated Group or of the relevant member thereof.

	(a)		For purposes of this Agreement, the “Hypothetical Tax” of the Consolidated Group or any member thereof for any Taxable Period shall be the Federal Income Tax liability that the Consolidated Group or any member thereof would have had for such Taxable Period if the Consolidated Group or any member thereof had filed its own Consolidated Return or Separate Return for such Taxable Period, taking into account any carryovers to, or carrybacks from, other Taxable Periods of the Consolidated Group or any member thereof that are available in such Taxable Period of the Consolidated Group or any member thereof, or would have been so available (after taking into account Paragraph 1(b)(i) of this Schedule I), if the Consolidated Group or any member thereof had filed its own Consolidated Return or Separate Return, respectively, for such other Taxable Periods, and the Consolidated Group or any member thereof was subject to Tax on all of its taxable income at the applicable maximum rate specified in the Code but without the benefit of any surtax exemption.
	(b)		In computing the Hypothetical Tax of the Consolidated Group or any member thereof:

(i)

in the case of any item of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit that is computed or subject to a limitation only on a consolidated basis, including but not limited to, charitable contributions, capital losses, foreign tax credits, research and experimentation credit and section 1231 gains and losses (“Consolidated Items”), such Consolidated Items shall be taken into account by the Consolidated Group or any member thereof only if, and to the extent that, a Consolidated Item is taken into account in the Taxable Period and actually affects the amount of the Tax liability of the Consolidated Group;

	(ii)		in the case of the treatment of an item subject to an election made only on a consolidated basis, the treatment will be governed by the election made by agent of the group on the Consolidated Return,
			and

(iii)

all intercompany transactions (as defined in section 1.1502-13(b)(1) of the Treasury Regulations) between and among

members of the Consolidated Group will be taken into account at the time when such transactions are required to be taken into account by the Consolidated Group under the consolidated return regulations, and any Consolidated Item not initially taken into account in computing the tax of the Consolidated Group or any member thereof shall be taken into account by the Consolidated Group or any member thereof in the Taxable Period, and to the extent, that such Consolidated Item is taken into account by the Consolidated Group.

2.		Combined State/Local Taxes shall be allocated between members of the Filing Group and members of the Non-Filing Group first on the basis of, and to the extent that, the receipts, income, capital or net worth of a member of the Filing Group or of the Non-Filing Group resulted in, or increased, such Taxes, with any remaining Combined State/Local Taxes allocated among the members on the basis which each member’s relative attribute (positive or negative) was taken into account in determining the amount of such Taxes.
3.		If any Affiliated Company of a Consolidated Group has foreign tax credits, investment credits, or any current loss or loss carryovers (collectively referred to herein as “Credits”) that are used on a Consolidated Return for any Taxable Period, FIS or LPS (as the case may be) shall determine (on any reasonable basis) the amount by which the tax liability of the Consolidated Group is actually reduced as a result of such Credits.
4.		If a Consolidated Federal Tax, Combined State/Local Tax, or Separate Tax liability is assessed after the Distribution Date pursuant to a Final Determination, such amount shall be allocated under the principles of Paragraphs 1, 2 and 3 of this Schedule I.
5.		All Tax allocations relating to Taxable Periods that include, but do not end on, the Distribution Date, shall be made, between the Pre-Distribution Period and Post-Distribution Period on the basis of an interim closing of the books as if such Taxable Period ended as of the close of business on the Distribution Date. Any real or personal property Tax, or similar Tax, determined on an annual or periodic basis shall be attributed to the Pre-Distribution Period on the basis of the number of days in such Pre-Distribution Period to the total number of days in the entire Taxable Period. Any adjustment required by section 481 of the Code (including adjustments for marking receivables to market) shall be attributable to the deductions or credits (or lack thereof) giving rise to the section 481 adjustment.
6.		All Hypothetical Tax calculations under this Schedule I shall be subject to the restriction that a Consolidated Item may not be utilized in the calculation of a member’s Hypothetical Tax for any Taxable Period if the member received a payment for such Consolidated Item in an earlier Taxable Period.

Schedule II

The following steps constitute the Preliminary Transactions:

1.		The excess loss accounts (“ELAs”) in stock of LSI Title Company, ASAP Legal Publication Services, Inc. and Geosure, Inc. will be eliminated.
