Notwithstanding this Section 10.2, the relevant Fees shall be paid net of any U.S. federal income withholding tax caused by the failure of LIFFE to provide the CBOT with such forms, unless a change in applicable law of the United States, enacted or promulgated after the date hereof, makes it impossible for LIFFE to continue to make the certifications described above.

20.1     Escalation. As used herein, “Disputes” means any claims, disputes, controversies, and other matters in question between the Parties arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the breach hereof (excluding any third party claims against LIFFE or the CBOT subject to indemnification pursuant to Section 18, but including any disagreements as to indemnification rights hereunder).

Officers who must discuss and, if appropriate, meet within five (5) Business Days to attempt to resolve the Dispute. If any representative of either Party referred to in this Section 20.1 is not available for any reason, the affected Party shall be entitled to appoint an appropriate substitute.

20.2    Mediation. If the Parties cannot resolve any Dispute in accordance with Section 20.1 within thirty (30) Business Days, they may refer the Dispute to mediation, to be conducted by a single mediator in (i) Chicago, Illinois, if LIFFE has initiated the Dispute, or (ii) London, England, if the CBOT has initiated the Dispute. The Parties shall use good faith efforts to agree upon a mediator. If the Parties are unable to agree upon a mediator within thirty (30) Business Days, the Parties may seek judicial resolution and remedy of the Dispute without first proceeding with mediation. The Parties shall use good faith efforts to hold the mediation within thirty (30) Business Days following the selection of a mediator. Unless otherwise agreed by the Parties, no decision resulting from the mediation proceedings will be binding upon the Parties. Unless expressly provided herein, each Party will bear its own costs (including attorneys fees) relating to the mediation, but the Parties will share equally the fees and expenses charged by the mediator.

20.3    Arbitration. If a Dispute is not resolved in accordance with Section 20.2, then either Party may provide written notice to the other Party of an intention to refer the Dispute to arbitration. Any such arbitration shall be: (a) binding; (b) administered by the International Centre for Dispute Resolution (“ICDR”) of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”); (c) conducted in accordance with the International Arbitration Rules of the AAA (the “AAA Rules”), as such AAA Rules may be amended from time to time, except to the extent this Section 20.3 provides otherwise; (d) held in Chicago, Illinois, if the Dispute is initiated by LIFFE and in London, England if the Dispute is initiated by the CBOT; and (e) conducted using the English language. Upon filing a claim, the filing Party will simultaneously provide written notice of such claim to the other Party and to the relevant administrator at the ICDR.

20.3.1 Selection of Arbitrators. Within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of the ICDR initiation letter, each Party shall select one neutral individual to act as arbitrator. In addition, the Parties shall submit a written request to AAA to use its normal procedures pursuant to the AAA Rules to appoint the third arbitrator within five (5) Business Days of AAA’s receipt of such request. The arbitrator appointed by AAA shall serve as the chairperson of the arbitration panel. The Parties agree that the selection of arbitrators must be completed within twenty-five (25) Business Days of receipt by both Parties of the ICDR initiation letter.

20.3.2 Cooperation. The Parties shall cooperate with each other in causing the arbitration to be held in as efficient and expeditious a manner as practicable, and in this respect to furnish such documents and make available such personnel as the arbitrators may request.

20.3.3 Reduction of Losses. The Parties have selected arbitration to expedite the resolution of Disputes and to reduce the costs and burdens associated with litigation. The Parties agree that the arbitrators should take these concerns into account when determining whether to authorize discovery and, if discovery is authorized, the scope of permissible discovery and other hearing and pre-hearing procedures. The arbitrators shall render an award, including a written decision, within ninety (90) calendar days after the arbitration notice is provided, unless

the Parties otherwise agree or the arbitrators make a finding that a Party has carried the burden of showing good cause for a longer time period.

20.3.4 Binding Decision. The decision or award of the arbitrators will be final and binding, and may be used as a basis for judgment thereon in any jurisdiction. The award shall be in writing, shall be signed by a majority of the arbitrators, and shall include a written decision setting out the reasons for the disposition of any claim.

20.3.5 Punitive Damages. Without limiting any other remedies that may be available under applicable law, the arbitrators shall have no authority to award punitive damages.

20.3.6 Confidentiality. All proceedings and decisions of the arbitrators shall be maintained in confidence to the extent legally permissible, and shall not be made public by any Party or any arbitrator without the prior written consent of the Parties, except as may be required by applicable laws.

20.3.7 Losses. Each Party shall bear its own costs and attorneys fees, and the Parties shall equally bear the fees, costs, and expenses of the arbitrators and the arbitration proceedings charged by the arbitrators (“Arbitration Fees”); provided, however, that (a) the filing Party shall pay any filing fees charged by the AAA; and (b) the arbitrators may exercise discretion to award costs, but not attorneys fees or Arbitration Fees, to the prevailing Party.

20.3.8 Obligations. The commencement and pendency of an arbitration under this Section 20.3 shall not relieve either of the Parties of their respective obligations under this Agreement.

20.3.9 Limitations. A demand for arbitration shall not be made after the date when institution of legal or equitable proceedings based upon such dispute would be barred by the applicable statute of limitations or laches under the laws of the State of Illinois, and the Parties expressly waive any causes of action relating to any Dispute not brought within the period set forth therein.

20.4     Limitations. Notwithstanding Sections 20.2 and 20.3, nothing herein restricts the rights of either Party to seek judicial resolution and remedy of (i) any Disputes, following compliance with Section 20.2 and 20.3, or (ii) any claims, disputes, controversies, or other matters in question between the Parties arising out of either Party’s breach of its obligations pursuant to Section 15 or Section 17.

notify Licensee of any such end use controls or restrictions on the export, reexport and transfer of encryption items applicable to the Software.

6. Market Entry Testing

6.1    Testing Process. Prior to being permitted to participate in the Exchange via any Application, Licensee must complete the CBOT’s market entry testing process, which process is designed to safeguard the integrity of the Exchange by verifying that (a) Licensee demonstrates an appropriate level of technical and operational readiness to participate in the Trading System; and (b) each Application conforms to a series of criteria to ensure it will not cause degradation of the Trading System and is fit for the purpose of participating in the Exchange (“Market Entry Testing”). Upon request by Licensee, the CBOT shall provide Licensee a test environment loaded with a dummy market and a pre-defined script known as a “Market Entry Test” or “MET,” and Licensee shall undertake the testing process. If the CBOT deems, in its sole discretion, that Licensee and the particular Application being tested have met all of the relevant Market Entry Testing requirements, the CBOT will issue to Licensee, if required by the operation of the Interface, an appropriate encrypted license key which will permit Licensee to participate in the Exchange utilizing the Application tested. If the CBOT determines, in its sole discretion, that Licensee has not met all of the Market Entry Testing requirements, the CBOT will so notify Licensee, which will then be provided a subsequent and reasonably prompt opportunity to undertake Market Entry Testing during a commercially reasonable time period specified by the CBOT.

6.2    Modified Applications. In the event any Application which has passed the Market Entry Testing process is modified, Licensee must (a) notify the CBOT, and (b) if the CBOT determines such modification may cause the Application not to conform to the Market Entry Testing criteria or to have a detrimental effect on any part of the Trading System, undertake Market Entry Testing of the modified Application.

7. Payment

7.1    Expenses. Licensee shall promptly reimburse the CBOT for any expenses incurred hereunder in association with the performance of the CBOT’s obligations hereunder, including, but not limited to, all travel and travel-related expenses.

7.2    Late Payment. All past due amounts owed to the CBOT will earn interest at the rate of the lesser of one and one half percent (1.5%) per month or the maximum amount allowed under applicable law, commencing on the applicable due date. Licensee will reimburse the CBOT for all reasonable costs (including reasonable attorneys fees) incurred in collecting past due amounts owed by Licensee.

7.3    Taxes. Licensee shall pay or reimburse the CBOT for all taxes, however designated, and whether international, national, state or local, which are levied or imposed in connection with or as a result of this Agreement, excluding, however, taxes based on the CBOT’s net income.

8. Term

eSPEED COVENANTS

“CBOT’s Electronic Futures Exchange” shall mean an electronic exchange operated by or for the benefit of CBOT, its majority-owned (directly or indirectly) subsidiaries (the “Subsidiaries”), its successors, and its associated clearing organizations, in each case for the trading and clearing of CBOT’s products, (1) where users of the electronic exchange (and/or their agents) can enter bids and offers which are matched by a computer, and (2) which CBOT makes available to its members and/or customers, CBOT controls primary access thereto, and CBOT must provide consent for a third party to gain access thereto. This definition includes One Chicago with respect to futures contracts on individual securities and narrow based security indices. Except with respect to CBOT, its successors, Subsidiaries, and associated clearing organizations, this definition does not include electronic futures exchanges in which CBOT may have an ownership interest, a controlling interest (whether by exercise of voting rights or through an exercise of other interests) and/or operational responsibility.

“Licensed Activities” shall mean an activity by which CBOT’s Electronic Futures Exchange is used to match bids and offers, together with associated clearing and compliance functions, in each case as defined in the ‘201 Patent. eSpeed and ETS agree that no license is required for the trading of commodities.

Conditioned upon the payment called for below, eSpeed grants to CBOT a worldwide, non-exclusive, non-transferable, paid-up license, (but without the right to sublicense), to make, have made, and use (but not to sell or offer for sale) an electronic marketplace for conducting Licensed Activities under United States Patent 4,903,201 (the ‘201 Patent) for the life thereof. For the avoidance of doubt, CBOT shall have the right to transfer this Agreement and license to the successor entities previously described in CBOT’s pending S-4 Registration Statement, provided such parties agree to be bound by all terms hereof and provided that all warranties and representations made herein can be made by such entities.

The license granted herein does not give CBOT the right to license, sell, or offer for sale any software that matches bids and offers for an electronic trading system to any third party, provided that CBOT may do so where proper pursuant to the terms of a license granted to a third party by eSpeed. For convenience of the parties and without resolving any legal issues concerning the following, the parties agree that none of the following shall constitute a sale or offer for sale of any invention claimed in the Patent: selling stock or memberships in the CBOT, leasing or selling equipment to be used with any CBOT’s Electronic Futures Exchange, or receiving monetary compensation for the use of CBOT’s Electronic Futures Exchange.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the license granted herein shall not allow CBOT to process trades for any third party futures exchange, provided that CBOT may do so where proper pursuant to the terms of a license granted to a third party by eSpeed.

Nothing herein shall be construed to grant any license to (or constitute a waiver of exhaustion of rights with respect to) any intellectual property other than United States Patent no. 4,903,201, either explicitly or by implication.

For the rights and license granted herein, CBOT shall make a lump sum settlement payment (which includes a paid up license fee) to eSpeed of fifteen million dollars ($15,000,000). For the convenience of the parties, and as requested by CBOT, the lump sum settlement payment shall be payable to eSpeed in installments as set forth below:

(i) Within thirty (30) business days following the Effective Date, CBOT shall wire transfer to a bank account specified by eSpeed a first installment in the amount of five million dollars ($5,000,000); and

(ii) On each of the first, second, third, fourth, and fifth anniversaries of the Effective Date, CBOT shall wire transfer to a bank account specified by eSpeed a yearly installment in the amount of two million dollars ($2,000,000), the last such installment to be made on the anniversary of the Effective Date in the year 2007.

1.    Guaranty of Obligations.

1.1    Guaranteed Obligations. The Guarantor hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees, as primary obligor and not merely as surety, for the benefit of LIFFE and each of LIFFE’s successors and permitted assigns (collectively, the “Beneficiaries”), the due and punctual performance, observance and payment by CBOT Sub of all of the covenants, agreements and obligations on the part of CBOT Sub to be paid or performed under each of the Transaction Documents or any document delivered in connection therewith or pursuant thereto, including, but not limited to, the due and punctual payment of all sums of every kind, nature and character which are or may become due and owing by CBOT Sub under the terms and provisions of each of the Transaction Documents, whether for fees, expenses, indemnified amounts or otherwise and for any reason whatsoever (all such covenants, agreements and obligations on the part of CBOT Sub to be paid or performed collectively, the “Guaranteed Obligations”).

1.3    Limitation.

6. Severability. Each provision of this Guaranty shall be considered separable. If, for any reason, any provision of this Guaranty is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, unlawful, or unenforceable, such determination shall not affect the enforceability of the remainder of this Guaranty or the validity, lawfulness, or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.
