Services

SECTION 2.01. Agreement to Provide Services. (a) Seller shall provide the Services to the Acquired Companies and in respect of the Acquired Assets as provided herein. Purchaser shall provide input and assistance to Seller in connection with the performance of the Services as reasonably requested by Seller, and shall advise Seller as to the desired manner and nature of the Services to be provided. Seller shall determine the Seller personnel who shall perform the Services. Seller may, at its option, from time to time delegate any of or all its obligations under this Seller Administrative Services Agreement to any one or more of its Affiliates. In addition, Seller may, as it deems necessary or desirable, engage the services of other professionals and consultants in connection with the performance of the Services; provided, that the Purchaser consents in writing to such engagement, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; and provided further Seller shall remain directly and fully liable to Purchaser for the performance of its obligations hereunder notwithstanding the engagement of any such professionals or consultants. During the term of this Seller Administrative Services Agreement, Seller shall use its reasonable efforts to make its corporate resources available as reasonably requested by Purchaser and the Acquired Companies in connection with the transition and integration of the Acquired Companies and the Acquired Assets, during normal business hours, provided, that the provision of such corporate resources does not interfere with the conduct of business of Seller and does not result in any cost to Seller.

(b) Unless otherwise agreed by the parties, the Services shall be:

(i) performed by Seller in a reasonably prompt and professional manner that is substantially the same manner in which Seller currently provides similar services for the Acquired Companies or in respect of the Acquired Assets, as the case may be; and

(ii) used by the Acquired Companies or the entities holding the Acquired Assets, as the case may be, for substantially the same purpose and in substantially the same manner as the Acquired Companies and the entities holding the Acquired Assets currently use similar such services.

(c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, this Seller Administrative Services Agreement is not intended to amend, replace or otherwise affect in any manner any existing contractual relationships between Seller and its Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and Purchaser and the Acquired Companies, on the other hand.

SECTION 2.02. Change Orders. (a) Service Additions. Exhibit A may be amended at any time by the mutual written agreement of the parties to add additional Services.

(b) Service Deletions. Upon prior written notice (a “Service Deletion Notice”) delivered to Seller not less than the requisite number of days prior to termination as specified in Exhibit A, Purchaser may:

(i) terminate this Seller Administrative Services Agreement with respect to any Service Category; or

(ii) terminate this Seller Administrative Services Agreement with respect to any individual Service Item included in the Services, so long as the other remaining Service Items in the relevant Service Category can thereafter still be practicably provided by Seller pursuant to this Seller Administrative Services Agreement. If Seller reasonably determines that it cannot thereafter practicably provide the other Service Items in the relevant Service Category, then Seller shall so notify Purchaser within 30 days after Seller’s receipt of the relevant Service Deletion Notice and such termination with respect to such Service Item shall not take effect.

(c) Termination by Seller. Except as otherwise provided in Exhibit A, upon not less than 180 days’ prior written notice to Purchaser, Seller may terminate this Seller Administrative Services Agreement with respect to any Service Category included in the Services if Seller and its Affiliates cease to provide such Service Category to Seller’s Subsidiaries, divisions and business units. Notwithstanding the foregoing provision, Services under Human Resources and Benefits and Treasury as described on Exhibit A shall not be terminated until the respective Default Termination Date.

(d) Return of Books and Records. Upon the request of Purchaser after the termination of a Service with respect to which Seller holds books, records or files, including current and archived copies of computer files, (i) owned by Purchaser or its Affiliates and used by Seller in connection with the provision of a Service to the Acquired Companies or in respect of the Acquired Assets, or (ii) created by Seller and in Seller’s possession as a function of and relating to provision of Services to the Acquired Companies or in respect of the Acquired Assets, such books and records shall be returned to Purchaser. The Acquired Companies shall be entitled to retain and use any such materials. Seller shall return all such books, records or files as soon as reasonably practicable. Purchaser shall bear Seller’s costs and expenses associated with the return of such documents. At its expense, Seller may make a copy of such books, records or files for its legal files.

SECTION 2.03. No Management Authority. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, Seller shall not be authorized by, and shall have no responsibility under, this Seller Administrative Services Agreement to manage the affairs of the Acquired Companies.

ARTICLE III

Compensation

SECTION 3.01. Compensation for Services. As compensation for Services rendered pursuant to this Seller Administrative Services Agreement, Purchaser shall pay to Seller an amount equal to the Cost of Services as specified in Exhibit A for each Service Category.

SECTION 3.02. Adjustments to Cost of Services. (a) Adjustments Due to Service Additions or Deletions. If at any time the parties mutually agree to add any Service Categories or Service Items to the Services to be provided to the Acquired Companies or in respect of the Acquired Assets hereunder, then concurrently with the addition of such Service Item or Service Category, as the case may be, the parties shall work in good faith to agree upon the then-current Cost of Services as appropriate to reflect such addition. If at any time this Seller Administrative Services Agreement is terminated with respect to any Service Item in accordance with Section 2.02, then not less than 30 days prior to such termination, Seller and Purchaser shall work in good faith to mutually agree upon an appropriate decrease, if any, to the then-current Cost of Services.

(b) Adjustments Due to Variances in Usage of Services. If, at any time, usage of any Service Category varies materially from the projected patterns of usage employed by the parties to determine the then-applicable Cost of Services with respect to such Service Category, then either Purchaser or Seller, by written notice (a “Cost Adjustment Request”) to the other, may trigger a review of the then-applicable Cost of Services attributable to such Service Category. Within 45 days after any Cost Adjustment Request, Seller and Purchaser shall agree upon an appropriate adjustment, if any, to the Cost of Services applicable to such Service Category so that such Cost of Services shall more appropriately reflect the actual direct cost to Seller of providing Services within such Service Category at then-current usage rates.

SECTION 3.03. Payment Terms. (a) Seller shall bill Purchaser at the end of each month for an amount equal to the sum of the Cost of Services for that month. Purchaser shall pay such amount in full within 45 days after receipt of invoice. Each invoice shall set forth in reasonable detail the calculation of the charges and amounts upon which the sum of the Cost of Services is comprised, broken down by the Cost of Services for each Service during the month to which such invoice relates. Other remedies for non-payment notwithstanding, if any payment is not received by Seller on or before the date such amount is due, then a late payment interest charge, calculated at a 6% per annum rate, on the past amount due shall become immediately due and payable in addition to the amount owed under this Seller Administrative Services Agreement. If at any time this Seller Administrative Services Agreement is terminated with respect to any Service Item in accordance with Section 2.02, then not more than 45 days after such termination, Seller shall return to Purchaser any amounts prepaid by Purchaser to Seller in respect of the days in the month during which the effectiveness of the termination occurred which fall after such termination.

(b) If Purchaser has any objection to the amount of the invoice, it shall have the right to inspect Seller’s records with respect thereto. Following such inspection, the parties shall endeavor in good faith to resolve any disagreement with respect to charges and costs hereunder. Thereafter, Purchaser will be entitled to a prompt refund of any amounts paid in excess of the amounts required hereunder, and Seller shall promptly pay any deficiency amounts (with interest at 6% per annum) found to be due as a result of such inspection.

SECTION 3.04. Disclaimer of Warranty. EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS SELLER ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES AGREEMENT, THE SERVICES TO BE PURCHASED UNDER THIS SELLER ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES AGREEMENT ARE FURNISHED WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNEES FOR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE. SELLER DOES NOT MAKE ANY WARRANTY THAT ANY SERVICE COMPLIES WITH ANY LAW, DOMESTIC OR FOREIGN.

SECTION 3.05. Books and Records. Seller shall maintain complete and accurate books of account as necessary to support its calculations of the Cost of Services and shall make such books available to Purchaser, upon reasonable notice, during normal business hours; provided, however, that to the extent Seller’s books contain information relating to any other aspect of Seller’s business, Seller and Purchaser shall negotiate a procedure to provide Purchaser the necessary access while preserving the confidentiality of such other records. In performing the Services, Seller shall be entitled to assume that all books and records provided by Purchaser or the Acquired Companies are true and accurate.
