Any outstanding loan balances under the FNF 401(k) Plan to U.S. employees of the FIS Group shall also be transferred with the underlying accounts. 2.4. Pension Plan.

FIS shall credit U.S. employees of the FIS Group who were enrolled in the FNF Health Plans immediately prior to the Transition Date with the deductibles and out-of-pocket expenses with which those employees had been credited thereunder for the current plan year that includes the Transition Date. FIS will apply prior period(s) of health insurance coverage toward satisfaction of FIS pre-existing condition limitations upon submission of Certificate(s) of Creditable Coverage, as permitted under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA).

(a) Effective as of the Distribution Date, FIS shall establish or shall cause to be established a plan that provides medical and life insurance benefits to retirees (the "FIS Retiree Plan"). The retiree medical and life insurance benefits under the FIS Retiree Plan shall be substantially identical to the retiree medical and life insurance benefits that would have been provided under FNF's retiree medical and life insurance benefits plan (the "FNF Retiree Plan") to similarly situated retirees immediately prior to the Distribution Date. (b) With respect to the former employees of any member of the FIS Group who as of the date of this Agreement are entitled to or are currently receiving retiree medical and life insurance benefits under the FNF Retiree Plan, FNF shall retain the Liability related to such individuals' retiree medical and life insurance benefits.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything herein to the contrary, neither FIS nor FNF shall be obligated to provide medical and life insurance benefits to retirees, nor shall they be restricted in any way from amending or terminating, at any time or for any reason, medical and/or life insurance benefits for retirees under the FIS Retiree Plan or the FNF Retiree Plan, respectively. 2.7. Health Reimbursement Plan and Dependent Care Plan. (a) On or prior to the IPO Date and until the Distribution Date (or such earlier date as agreed to by the Parties), FIS shall participate in FNF's health and dependent care flexible spending account plans (the "FNF Flex Plans"), both designed to comply with Section 125 of the Code, for the benefit of U.S. employees of the FIS Group, and FNF shall consent thereto, in accordance with the respective terms of such plans.

(b) On or prior to the Distribution Date (or such earlier date as agreed to by the Parties), FIS shall adopt plans substantially identical to the FNF Flex Plans (the "FIS Flex Plans").

Following the transfer of account balances, such employees shall submit claims incurred during the calendar year in which such transfer occurs to the applicable FIS Flex Plan, and such 8 employees shall be reimbursed for those claims (if any) up to the amounts remaining in their respective plan accounts under the applicable FIS Flex Plan. 2.8. Other Welfare and Nonqualified Pension Plans. As of the IPO Date and continuing until the Distribution Date (or such earlier date agreed to by the Parties), FIS shall participate in FNF's (i) employee welfare benefit plans (as defined in Section 3(1) of ERISA and including, but not limited to, the life insurance, dependent life insurance, accidental death and dismemberment insurance, long- and short-term disability insurance, business travel accident insurance, vision care, employee assistance, retiree life and medical insurance, long-term care insurance, and legal assistance plans) not already covered in Sections 2.5 and 2.7 above, and (ii) employee pension benefit plans (as defined in Section 3(2) of ERISA) that are not intended to be tax-qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code, for the benefit of eligible employees of the FIS Group, and FNF shall consent thereto, all in accordance with the terms of those plans. Immediately prior to the Distribution Date (or such earlier date agreed to by the Parties, as described above), all U.S. employees of the FIS Group who participate in any of said other welfare plans or non-qualified plans shall cease to participate in those plans, and distribution of any benefits to which they are entitled under those non-qualified plans shall be made at the time and in the manner provided under those plans. 2.9. Payroll and Related Taxes. The Parties agree that FNF will continue providing payroll services after the IPO Date for all U.S. employees of the FIS Group, including furnishing one Form W-2 from Fidelity National Management Services, LLC with respect to calendar year 2004. FIS shall pay to FNF the amount determined under the Master Agreement for such post-IPO payroll services. FIS shall be responsible for all payroll and payroll related services and reporting in connection with employment for the FIS Group on and after January 1, 2005. ARTICLE III. NON-U.S. EMPLOYEE MATTERS 3.1. Non-U.S. Transferred Employees. (a) On or prior to the Distribution Date, FIS will provide offers of employment to each Non-U.S. Employee who is not already employed by the FIS Group as of the IPO Date. Such offer shall be for a position with the FIS Group with job duties substantially similar to the job duties of the position held by such Non-U.S. Employee immediately prior to the date of the employment offer. FIS agrees (i) to employ (or cause other Group Members to employ) the Non-U.S. Employees who accept offers of employment from FIS (or the applicable Group Member) or who otherwise become employees of FIS (or the applicable Group Member) by operation of law, and (ii) to provide (or cause such other Group Members or Affiliates to provide or continue to provide, as the case may be) each Non-U.S. Employee with at least substantially comparable terms and conditions of employment to those provided to such employees immediately prior to the date of the employment offer. The Parties agree to fully and timely cooperate in the transition activities and also to comply (and cause their respective 9 Group Members to comply) with all applicable provisions of the European Union Acquired Rights Directive or other country-specific legal standards or applicable laws. (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, and except as may be otherwise provided in the Master Agreement, agreed to in writing by the Parties or prohibited by applicable law, neither Group will employ (or engage as an independent contractor or consultant) any Non-U.S. Employee whose employment relationship with the FNF Group terminates following any refusal by such Non-U.S. Employee to accept employment with the FIS Group pursuant to this Section 3.1. (c) If any FIS Group Member other than FIS hires any Non-U.S. Transferred Employee, then FIS shall cause that Group Member to honor all of the provisions of this Agreement that would have applied to FIS with respect to that Non-U.S. Transferred Employee. 3.2. Non-U.S. Employee Benefits. On or prior to the Distribution Date, the FIS Group shall establish (or shall cause its Group Members to establish) the FIS Non-U.S. Plans and such other employee benefit plans outside of the United States as may be required by applicable law. ARTICLE IV. STOCK OPTIONS AND STOCK-BASED INCENTIVE COMPENSATION 4.1. FNF Options. (a) All options to purchase FNF common stock ("FNF Options") that are vested on the Distribution Date will remain subject to the same terms and conditions under which they were held as of the Distribution Date; provided, however, that the number of shares subject to each vested FNF Option and the per-share exercise price of the option will be adjusted to reflect the impact of the Distribution (FNF stockholder approval of amendments to certain of FNF's equity-based incentive plans will be required to provide for such adjustment to the FNF Options). FIS Employees who will not continue to be employees or directors of the FNF Group will be deemed to have terminated employment or service, as the case may be, as of the Distribution Date and their FNF Options, if not exercised, will expire in accordance with their terms upon or following such termination of employment or service. (b) All unvested FNF Options held by FIS Employees on the Distribution Date will be converted into options to purchase FIS common stock ("FIS Options"). To the extent permitted by applicable law, the FIS Options will have substantially the same terms and conditions, including the same vesting provisions and exercise periods, as the unvested FNF Options had immediately prior to the Distribution Date. The conversion ratio used in determining the number of shares subject to each unvested FNF Option and the per-share exercise price of the option will be determined by dividing the closing price of FNF common stock on the Distribution Date (or if that date is not a trading day, the previous trading day) by the opening price of the FIS common 10 stock on the day after the Distribution Date (or if that date is not a trading day, on the next trading day). The number of shares that may be purchased under each converted FIS Option shall be determined by multiplying the number of shares subject to the corresponding unvested FNF Option by the conversion ratio. The per-share exercise price of each converted FIS Option shall be determined by dividing the exercise price per share of the corresponding unvested FNF Option by the conversion ratio. 4.2. FNF Restricted Stock. All employees of the FIS Group will continue to hold their shares of FNF restricted stock after the IPO Date on the same terms and conditions under which they were held as of the IPO Date. As of the Distribution Date, FIS Employees holding FNF restricted stock will receive FIS common stock in the Distribution in the same proportion as other FNF stockholders, with such shares of FIS common stock being subject to the same transfer restrictions and forfeiture conditions as the FNF restricted stock. In addition, the FNF restricted stock will be replaced with FIS restricted stock granted under the FIS 2004 Omnibus Incentive Plan. The replacement FIS restricted stock shall be subject to substantially the same terms and conditions as the FNF restricted stock, with equitable adjustments made to the number of shares to reflect the difference in value of FNF and FIS common stock at the time of the Distribution. FIS will grant the replacement shares of FIS restricted stock as soon as practicable following the Distribution Date, but in no event later than 60 days thereafter. 4.3. Employee Stock Purchase Plan. All employees of the FIS Group who, prior to the IPO Date were eligible to participate in FNF's Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the "FNF ESPP"), will continue to be eligible to participate in the FNF ESPP after the IPO Date through the Distribution Date. On or prior to the IPO Date FIS shall establish an employee stock purchase plan (the "FIS ESPP") that will provide benefits that are similar to those provided under the FNF ESPP. Employees eligible to participate in the FIS ESPP will begin participation in the FNF ESPP on the Distribution Date. If the Distribution Date occurs other than on the first day of a payroll period, FNF shall amend the FNF ESPP to provide that any amounts contributed by FIS Employees to the FNF ESPP for such payroll period shall be transferred to FIS and shall be applied to the purchase of FIS common stock under the FIS ESPP. If the Distribution Date occurs other than on the last day of a calendar quarter, FIS shall credit to the FIS ESPP account of each FIS Employee an amount equal the matching contribution the FIS Employee would have been entitled to under the FNF ESPP with respect to the calendar quarter in which the Distribution Date occurs. ARTICLE V. RESPONSIBILITY FOR EMPLOYEE LIABILITIES 5.1. Responsibility for Employee Liabilities. Effective as of the Distribution Date (or such earlier date agreed to by the Parties), except as expressly provided otherwise herein, the FIS Group shall assume and thereafter be responsible for and pay, perform and discharge, employment, compensation and employee benefit Liabilities, responsibilities and obligations relating to services provided by employees of the FIS Group on or after the Distribution Date (or such earlier date agreed to by the Parties). FIS shall reimburse, indemnify and hold harmless FNF for any such Liabilities, responsibilities and obligations incurred by the FNF Group or its Employee Benefit Plans. 11 ARTICLE VI. MISCELLANEOUS 6.1. Amendment or Termination of Employee Benefit Plans. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, neither the FIS Group nor the FNF Group shall be restricted in any way from amending or terminating, at any time or for any reason, their respective Employee Benefit Plans, in whole or in part, or with respect to any employee or group of employees. 6.2. Entire Agreement. This Agreement is an integral part of, is subject to, and is to be interpreted consistently with, the Master Agreement, and the provisions of the Master Agreement that do not conflict with the provisions of this Agreement are hereby incorporated by reference; in all other respects this Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior written and oral (and all contemporaneous oral) agreements and understandings with respect to the express subject matter hereof. For purposes of this Section 6.2 only, references herein to this Agreement shall include the Schedules and Exhibits to this Agreement. 6.3. Cooperation. FNF and FIS agree to, and to cause their Group Members to, cooperate and use reasonable efforts to promptly (i) comply with all requirements of this Agreement, ERISA, the Code and other laws and regulations that may be applicable to the matters addressed herein, and (ii) subject to applicable law, provide each other with such information reasonably requested by the other Party to assist the other Party in administering its Employee Benefit Plans and complying with applicable law and regulations and the terms of this Agreement. 6.4. Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement shall not confer third-party beneficiary rights upon any employee of the FIS Group or FNF Group or any other person or entity. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as giving to any such employee or other person or entity any legal or equitable right against FNF or FIS (or their respective Group Members). This Agreement shall not constitute a contract of employment and will not give any employee or other person a right to be employed by or retained in the employ of either FNF or FIS (or their respective Group Members), unless the employee or other person would otherwise have that right under applicable law. This Agreement shall not be deemed to change that at-will status of any employee. 6.5. Employment Records. The Parties agree that on or within a reasonable time period after the Distribution Date, the FNF Group shall provide to the FIS Group all employment records for the employees of the FIS Group required to be kept under applicable law or necessary for the conduct of the Transferred Business, provided (a) that such records shall not include any records to the extent such a transfer would violate applicable law or cause an FNF Group Member to break any agreement with a third party, and (b) that such records are in the possession of the FNF Group. The FNF Group may make, at its expense, and keep copies of such records. After the Distribution Date, as may be necessary for any business purpose of the FNF Group or to permit the FNF Group to respond to any government inquiry or audit, defend any claim or lawsuit or administer any Employee Benefit Plan, the FIS Group will allow the FNF Group reasonable access to and, if requested, copies of any records relating to such employees. 12 The FNF Group shall be responsible for the cost associated with the production and copies of such requested documents. Employment records of employees who terminate employment with the FNF Group in the Transferred Business prior to the IPO Date shall not be transferred to FIS; provided, that the FNF Group shall provide the FIS Group with reasonable access to such records of such employees, and if requested, copies of such records, as may be necessary to permit the FIS Group to respond to any government inquiry or audit, defend any claim or lawsuit related to any Employee Benefit Plan, or for any business purpose of the FIS Group. The FIS Group shall be responsible for the cost associated with the production and copies of such requested documents. Each Party acknowledges (for itself and its respective Group Members) that the other Party and their respective Group Members are under no obligation to retain the above-described records for a period of time that exceeds such other Party's internal document retention policy, or applicable law, whichever is greater. 6.6. Breaches, Indemnification and Termination. Except as set forth in Sections 5.1 and 6.5 above, the sole and exclusive remedy for any breach of a covenant or agreement set forth herein shall be as set forth in the Master Agreement. This Agreement shall terminate upon termination of the Master Agreement. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties as of the date set forth above have executed this Employee Matters Agreement.
