Our Business
      DealerTrack is a leading provider of on-demand software and data solutions for the automotive retail industry in the United States. We utilize the Internet to link automotive dealers with banks, finance companies, credit unions and other financing sources, and other service and information providers, such as the major credit reporting agencies. We have established a network of active relationships with over 20,000 automotive dealers, including over 80% of all franchised dealers; over 140 financing sources, including the 20 largest independent financing sources in the United States and eight captive financing sources; and a number of other service and information providers to the automotive retail industry. Our credit application processing product enables dealers to automate and accelerate the indirect automotive financing process by increasing the speed of communications between these dealers and their financing sources. We have leveraged our leading market position in credit application processing to address other inefficiencies in the automotive retail industry value chain. Our proven network of over 20,000 dealers provides a competitive advantage for distribution of our on-demand software and data solutions. Our integrated subscription-based software products and services enable our automotive dealer customers to receive valuable consumer leads, compare various financing and leasing options and programs, sell insurance and other aftermarket products, document compliance with certain laws and execute financing contracts electronically. In addition, we offer data and other products and services to various industry participants, including lease residual value and automobile configuration data.
      Traditionally, the workflow processes in each stage of the automotive retail industry value chain have been manual and paper intensive and/or performed on stand-alone legacy systems, resulting in inefficiencies. In contrast to most dealer legacy systems, our web-based solutions are open and flexible, and easily integrate with other widely used software systems. Our network improves efficiency and reduces processing time for both dealers and financing sources, and integrates other information and service providers’ products and services, such as credit reporting agencies. In addition, we intend to aggregate automotive industry information and introduce products and services that report the aggregated information to dealers, financing sources and other industry participants. We primarily generate revenue on both a transaction and subscription basis.
      We began our principal business operations in February 2001 with the introduction of our credit application processing product to address inefficiencies in the automotive financing process. Since then, we have substantially increased the number of participants in our network and have introduced new products and services through our internal product development efforts as well as through acquisitions. As a result, we have increased our total addressable market by enhancing our offering of subscription products and our data and reporting capabilities, and expanding our network of relationships. We have grown, and believe we will continue to grow, our revenue significantly faster than our costs and expenses, which generates operating leverage. For example, our revenue increased $31.3 million, or 81%, to $70.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2004 from $38.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2003. Costs and expenses for the same period increased $20.4 million, or 49%, to $62.3 million from $41.9 million.

Our Solution
      Our suite of integrated on-demand software products and services addresses many of the existing inefficiencies in the automotive retail industry value chain. We believe our solutions deliver benefits to dealers, financing sources and other service and information providers.
      Dealers. We offer franchised and independent automotive dealers an integrated suite of on-demand sales and finance solutions that significantly shorten financing processing times, allowing them to spend more time selling automobiles and aftermarket products. Traditionally, dealers and financing sources have relied upon the fax method of processing credit applications. This cumbersome process limited the range of options available to dealers and delayed the availability of financing. Our automated, web-based credit application processing product allows automotive dealers to originate and route their consumers’ credit application information electronically. In addition to this credit application processing product, we also offer dealers a suite of complementary subscription products and services that allow them to integrate and better manage their business processes across the automotive retail industry value chain. We offer a product that provides a valuable pre-sales marketing and prospecting tool by providing a secure credit application on a dealer’s website for a consumer to enter their own credit information. We offer other products and services that allow dealers to compare deal configurations from one or multiple financing and leasing sources on a real-time basis, which is referred to in the industry as “desking.” We also offer a product that allows dealers and consumers to complete finance contracts electronically, which a dealer can transmit to participating financing sources for funding, further streamlining the financing process and reducing transactional costs for both dealers and financing sources. Our products and services, when used together, form a seamless sales and finance solution that integrates with other widely used software systems. As of March 31, 2005, an aggregate of 9,825 of our existing product subscriptions have been purchased by approximately 6,400 of the over 20,000 dealers active on our network.
      Financing Sources. Our on-demand credit application processing and electronic contracting products eliminate expensive and time-consuming inefficiencies in legacy paper systems, and thereby decrease financing sources’ costs of originating loans and leases. Typically, consumers who obtain financing to purchase an automobile do so either indirectly through a dealership or directly from a financing source. In indirect financings, the dealer submits the consumer’s credit application information to one or multiple financing sources to obtain approval for the financing. We electronically transmit complete credit application and contract data, reducing costs and errors and improving efficiency for both prime and non-prime financing sources. We believe our solutions significantly streamline the indirect financing process and improve the efficiency and/or profitability of each financing transaction. We also believe that our credit application processing product enables our financing source customers to increase credit originations. Our network is configured to enable our financing source customers to connect easily with dealers with whom they currently do not conduct business. We believe that financing sources that utilize our solution experience a significant competitive advantage over financing sources that rely on the legacy paper fax process. Currently, a substantial majority of our financing source customers’ collective indirect credit application volume is processed through our network.
      Other Service and Information Providers. Our web-based solutions enable third-party service and information providers to deliver their products and services more broadly and efficiently, which increases the value of our integrated solutions to our dealer customers. We offer our third-party service and information providers a secure and efficient means of delivering their data to our dealer and financing source customers. For example, credit reporting agencies can provide dealers with prospective consumers’ credit reports electronically and integrate the delivery of these consumers’ credit reports with our web-based credit application processing product and other products and services.
Our Competitive Strengths
      We believe that the following strengths provide us with competitive advantages in the marketplace:
      Leading Market Position. We currently have active relationships with over 20,000 automotive dealers, including over 80% of all franchised dealers; over 140 financing sources, including the 20 largest independent

Table of Contents

financing sources in the United States and eight captive financing sources; and a number of other service and information providers. Currently, a substantial majority of our financing source customers’ collective indirect credit application volume is processed through our network. We believe we are also the market leader in desking, electronic contracting and residual value data for the automotive finance industry. Our network of relationships combined with our market leading positions provide us with significant competitive advantages, including our ability to maximize cross-selling opportunities for our products and services to all of our customers and to expand the wide range of new participants in our network. For example, our new subsidiaries, Chrome Systems, Inc. and Automotive Lease Guide (ALG), Inc., will be better able to market and distribute their products and services through our network. We believe that customers who regularly use one of our solutions are more inclined to use one or more of our other solutions.
      Flexible Web-Based Delivery Model. We believe that our software as a service model is a superior method of delivering products and services to our customers. Our customers are able to access our highly specialized applications on-demand rather than incurring the expense and difficulty of installing and maintaining them independently. In addition, our open architecture facilitates integration with certain existing systems of our automotive dealer customers, financing sources and other service and information providers. We believe our flexible web-based delivery model enhances our customers’ operating efficiency and reduces their total operating costs.
      Broad and Integrated Suite of Solutions. Our broad range of integrated on-demand software products and services improves our customers’ operating efficiency in the pre-sales marketing and prospecting, sales and finance and insurance stages of the automotive retail industry value chain. We believe that none of our competitors currently offer a comparable suite of integrated solutions and that the breadth of our existing solutions provides us with a competitive advantage.
      Independent Network. Our web-based network is independent and does not give any one financing source preference over any other financing source. Each dealer sees its individualized list of available financing sources listed alphabetically, based on our proprietary matching process, and can transmit credit application information simultaneously to multiple financing sources selected by them. Financing sources’ responses to requests for financing through our network are presented back to the dealer in their order of response. We believe that this neutral approach makes our network more appealing to both automotive dealers and financing sources than captive alternatives that favor financing sources owned or controlled by one or more automobile manufacturers.
      Proven Acquisition Strategy. We have augmented the growth of our business by successfully completing strategic acquisitions. In executing our acquisition strategy, we have focused on identifying businesses that we believe will increase our market share or that have products, services and technology that are complementary to our product and service offerings. We believe that our success in completing these acquisitions and integrating them into our business has allowed us to maintain our leadership position in the industry, enhanced our network of relationships and accelerated our growth.
Our Growth Strategy
      Our growth strategy is to leverage our position as a leading provider of on-demand software solutions to the U.S. automotive retail industry. Key elements of our growth strategy are:
      Sell Additional Products and Services to Our Existing Customers. We believe that we are well-positioned to increase the number of products and services purchased by our existing customers. Many of our subscription-based products and services were recently introduced to our customers, and we believe there are opportunities to increase the sales of these products and services to dealers and financing sources. We believe that a significant market opportunity exists for us to sell additional products and services to the approximately 70% of our over 20,000 active dealer customers that utilize our credit application processing product, but have not yet purchased one or more of our subscription-based products or services. Similarly, the over 140 financing sources that utilize our credit application product represent a market opportunity for us to sell our electronic contracting solution, which approximately 10% of our financing source customers have implemented to date.

Table of Contents

      Expand Our Customer Base. We intend to increase our market penetration by expanding our automotive dealer and financing source customer base through the efforts of our direct sales force. Although we currently enjoy active relationships with over 80% of all franchised dealers, currently less than 5% of the approximately 50,000 independent dealerships in the United States are active in our network. We believe that we are well positioned to increase the number of these active dealer relationships. While we currently have over 140 active financing source customers, we will focus on adding the captive financing affiliates of foreign automotive manufacturers, as well as select regional banks, financing companies and other financing sources to our network. We also intend to increase the number of other service and information providers in our network by adding, among others, insurance and other aftermarket service providers.
      Expand Our Product and Service Offerings. We expect to expand our suite of products and services to address the evolving needs of our customers. We have identified a number of opportunities to leverage our network of relationships and our core competencies to benefit dealers, financing sources and other service and information providers. For example, we believe there are opportunities to generate additional revenue from insurance and other aftermarket providers by allowing their products and services to be accessed and offered in our network. We also see opportunities to generate additional revenue by aggregating automotive industry information we have collected and offering reporting of the aggregated information to dealers, financing sources and other industry participants.
      Pursue Acquisitions and Strategic Alliances. We intend to continue to grow and advance our business through acquisitions and strategic alliances. We believe that acquisitions and strategic alliances will allow us to enhance our product and service offerings, sell new products using our network, improve our technology and/or increase our market share.
Recent Developments
Acquisitions
      On May 25, 2005, we acquired substantially all the assets and certain liabilities of ALG. ALG’s products and services provide lease residual value data for new and used leased automobiles and guidebooks and consulting services related thereto, to manufacturers, financing sources, investment banks, automobile dealers and insurance companies. We intend to combine ALG’s lease residual value data with our other products and services to allow us to aggregate automotive industry information and report the aggregated information to dealers, financing sources and other industry participants. For the year ended December 31, 2004, ALG had revenue of $7.8 million.
      On May 23, 2005, we acquired substantially all the assets and certain liabilities of North American Advanced Technology, Inc. and its affiliates (collectively, “NAT”). NAT’s products and services streamline and automate many traditionally time-consuming and error-prone manual processes of administering after-market products, such as extended service contracts, guaranteed asset protection coverage, theft deterrent devices and credit life insurance. We intend to add NAT’s products and services to our suite of solutions in order to enhance our menu-selling offering and to add insurance and other aftermarket providers to our network. For the year ended December 31, 2004, NAT had revenue of $3.2 million.
      On May 10, 2005, we acquired substantially all the assets and certain liabilities of Chrome. Chrome’s products and services collect, standardize and enhance raw automotive data and deliver it in a format that is easy to use and tailored to specific industry requirements. Chrome’s products and services enable dealers, manufacturers, financing sources, Internet portals, consumers and insurance companies to configure, compare, and price automobiles on a standardized basis. This provides more accurate valuations for both consumer trade-ins and dealer used automobile inventory. We intend to integrate Chrome’s products and services into our network to create an expanded subscription product offering for our dealer customers. For the year ended December 31, 2004, Chrome had revenue of $12.8 million.

Credit Facilities
      On April 15, 2005, we and one of our subsidiaries, DealerTrack, Inc., entered into credit facilities comprised of a $25.0 million revolving credit facility and a $25.0 million term loan facility. The revolving credit facility is available for general corporate purposes (including acquisitions), subject to certain conditions. Proceeds from borrowings under the credit facilities were used to fund a portion of the Chrome, NAT and ALG acquisitions. As of June 30, 2005, the principal amount borrowed under the credit facilities was $43.5 million and we had $6.5 million available for additional borrowings under the revolving credit facility. The revolving credit facility matures on April 15, 2008 and the term loan facility matures on April 15, 2010.
Transactions and Relationships with Certain of the Underwriters and Their Affiliates
      We have engaged in transactions with, and established relationships with, certain of the underwriters and their affiliates, including J.P. Morgan Securities Inc. (“JPMorgan”), Lehman Brothers Inc. (“Lehman Brothers”) and Wachovia Capital Markets, LLC (“Wachovia”). In particular, one affiliate of JPMorgan is a stockholder that is selling shares of common stock in this offering and another is a significant customer and vendor of ours. Additionally, an affiliate of each of JPMorgan, Lehman Brothers and Wachovia is a lender under our credit facilities. These transactions and relationships are more fully described below:
  •  Prior to the completion of this offering, an affiliate of JPMorgan will beneficially own approximately 26.6% of the outstanding shares of our equity securities. Most of this affiliate’s remaining shares of common stock will be transferred to a voting trust that will be formed on or around the completion of this offering. After giving effect to this offering, the affiliate and voting trust will hold voting power with respect to approximately           % and           % of the outstanding shares of our common stock, respectively (or approximately           % and           % if the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised in full, respectively);
 
  •  Certain affiliates of JPMorgan and an affiliate of Wachovia are financing source customers of ours and we provide certain hosting services for JPMorgan;
 
  •  The financing source affiliates of JPMorgan and Wachovia use competing electronic technology and systems in addition to ours, including their own proprietary services. They currently originate automotive finance business by means other than our credit application processing product and we expect that they will continue to do so in the future;
 
  •  Affiliates of each of JPMorgan, Lehman Brothers and Wachovia are lenders under our credit facilities. We are required to use up to 25% of the proceeds to us from the sale of shares in this offering to repay the $25.0 million term loan under our credit facilities. Therefore, these affiliates will receive a portion of the proceeds from this offering;
 
  •  We license certain limited technology from an affiliate of JPMorgan under the terms of a royalty-free, perpetual license, and the license agreement restricts our ability to use this technology outside of the automotive finance industry;
 
  •  We maintain certain banking relationships with, including the receipt of investment management services from, an affiliate of JPMorgan;
 
  •  We provide lease residual value data for new and used leased automobiles as well as guidebooks, and consulting services related thereto, to a financing source affiliate of JPMorgan;
 
  •  We provide vehicle description and specification data for automobiles, and software related thereto, to a financing source affiliate of JPMorgan; and
 
  •  In the ordinary course of their business, the underwriters or their affiliates have engaged, are engaged and may in the future engage in investment banking and financial advisory transactions with us, our affiliates or our significant stockholders, including Lehman Brothers’ role as financial advisor and its delivery of a fairness opinion to an affiliate of one of our significant stockholders, The First American

Summary Historical Consolidated Financial Data
      The summary historical consolidated financial data set forth below as of December 31, 2003 and 2004 and for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2004 have been derived from our audited consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included in this prospectus. The summary historical consolidated financial data set forth below as of March 31, 2005 and for the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2005 have been derived from our unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included in this prospectus. These unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a basis consistent with our audited consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, such unaudited financial data reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal and recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of the results for those periods. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year or any future period.
      We completed several acquisitions during the periods presented below, the operating results of which have been included in our historical results of operations from the respective acquisition dates. These acquisitions have significantly affected our revenue, results of operations and financial condition. Accordingly, the results of operations for the periods presented may not be comparable due to these acquisitions.
      Upon the completion of this offering, each of the outstanding shares of redeemable convertible participating preferred stock will automatically convert into shares of common stock. The pro forma consolidated financial data included in this summary give effect only to the automatic conversion of all the outstanding shares of redeemable convertible participating preferred stock into common stock. The pro forma consolidated financial data included in this summary do not give effect to this offering, including the application of the proceeds therefrom.
      The following data should be read in conjunction with “Unaudited Combined Condensed Pro Forma Financial Information,” “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” our consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto and the consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto for each of dealerAccess, LML, Chrome and ALG, in each case included elsewhere in this prospectus.

(3)  The basic and diluted earnings per share calculations include adjustments to net (loss) income relating to preferred dividends earned, but not paid, and net income amounts allocated to the participating preferred stockholders in order to compute net (loss) income applicable to common stockholders in accordance with SFAS No. 128, “Earnings per Share” and EITF 03-6, “Participating Securities and the Two-Class Method under FASB No. 128.” For more detail, please see Note 2 to our historical consolidated financial statements.
 
(4)  Unaudited pro forma basic and diluted net income per share have been computed to give effect, even if antidilutive, to the issuance of all shares issuable upon automatic conversion of the redeemable convertible participating preferred stock into common stock upon the completion of this offering on an as-if converted basis for the year ended December 31, 2004 and the three months ended March 31, 2005.
 
(5)  EBITDA represents net (loss) income before interest expense (income), taxes, depreciation and amortization. We present EBITDA because we believe that EBITDA provides useful information regarding our operating results. We rely on EBITDA as a primary measure to review and assess the operating performance of our company and management team in connection with our executive compensation plan incentive payments. We believe EBITDA is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in our industry, many of which present EBITDA when reporting their results. In addition, our credit agreement uses EBITDA (with additional adjustments), in part, to measure our compliance with covenants such as interest coverage.

Table of Contents

  EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool and you should not consider it in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are:
  •  EBITDA does not reflect our cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
 
  •  EBITDA does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;
 
  •  EBITDA does not reflect the significant interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on our debts;
 
  •  Although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements; and
 
  •  Other companies in our industry may calculate EBITDA differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.
  Because of these limitations, EBITDA should not be considered as a measure of discretionary cash available to us to invest in the growth of our business. We compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our GAAP results and using EBITDA only supplementally. EBITDA is a measure of our performance that is not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP. EBITDA is not a measurement of our financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income, operating income or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP or as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities as a measure of our liquidity.
 
  The following table sets forth the reconciliation of EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, to net income (loss), our most directly comparable financial measure in accordance with GAAP.

RISK FACTORS
      You should carefully consider the risks described below, together with all of the other information in this prospectus, before deciding to invest in our common stock. The risks and uncertainties described below are those that we have identified as material. Risks and uncertainties not currently identifiable by us, or that we believe are immaterial, are not included below, but may also impair our business operations. If any of the events contemplated by the following discussion of risks should occur, our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations may suffer. As a result, the trading price of our common stock could decline and you could lose part or all of your investment in our common stock.
Risks Relating to Our Business
We may be unable to continue to compete effectively in our industry.
      Competition in the automotive retail technology industry is intense. The indirect automotive retail finance industry is highly fragmented and is served by a variety of entities, including:
  •  web-based automotive finance credit application processors, including CU Direct Corporation’s Credit Union Direct Lending (“CUDL”) and RouteOne LLC (“RouteOne”);
 
  •  the proprietary credit application processing systems of the financing source affiliates of automobile manufacturers, including those provided by American Honda Finance Corp. and Volkswagen Credit;
 
  •  dealer management system providers, including ADP, Inc. and The Reynolds and Reynolds Company;
 
  •  automotive retail sales desking providers, including ADP, Inc. and Market Scan Information Systems, Inc.; and
 
  •  vehicle configuration providers, including Automotive Information Center, Autodata Solutions Company and JATO Dynamics, Inc.
      We also compete with warranty and insurance providers, as well as software providers, among others, in the market for menu-selling products and services. Some of our competitors have longer operating histories, greater name recognition and significantly greater financial, technical, marketing and other resources than we do. Many of these competitors also have longstanding relationships with dealers and may offer dealers other products and services that we do not provide. As a result, these companies may be able to respond more quickly to new or emerging technologies and changes in customer demands or to devote greater resources to the development, promotion and sale of their products and services than we can to ours. We expect the market to continue to attract new competitors and new technologies, possibly involving alternative technologies that are more sophisticated and cost-effective than our technology. There can be no assurance that we will be able to compete successfully against current or future competitors or that competitive pressures we face will not materially adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
Our computer systems and operations may be vulnerable to security breaches, disruptions or failures.
      Our success depends on the confidence of dealers, financing sources, the major credit reporting agencies and our other network participants in our ability to transmit confidential information securely over the Internet and our ability to operate our computer systems and operations without significant disruption or failure. We transmit substantial amounts of confidential information, including non-public personal information, over the Internet. Any failure to provide secure online products and services could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
      Our products and services rely on encryption and authentication technology licensed from third parties to provide the security and authentication necessary to achieve secure transmission of confidential information. Despite our focus on Internet security, we may not be able to stop unauthorized attempts to gain access to or disrupt the transmission of communications among dealers, financing sources, the major credit reporting agencies and other service and information providers. Advances in computer capabilities, new discoveries in the field of cryptography, or other events or developments could result in a compromise or breach of the

12


Table of Contents

algorithms used by our products and services to protect certain data contained in our databases and the information being transferred.
      Although we generally limit warranties and liabilities relating to security in financing source and dealer contracts, third parties may seek to hold us liable for any losses suffered as a result of unauthorized access to their confidential information or non-public personal information. We may not have adequate insurance to cover these losses. We may be required to expend significant capital and other resources to protect against security breaches or to alleviate the problems caused. Moreover, concerns over the security of transactions conducted on the Internet and commercial online services, which may be heightened by any well-publicized compromise of security, may deter customers from using our products and services. Our security measures may not be sufficient to prevent security breaches, and failure to prevent security breaches could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
      Our computer systems and operations are vulnerable to damage or interruption from natural disasters, such as fire, floods and hurricanes, power outages, telecommunications failures, network service outages and disruptions, “denial of service” attacks, computer viruses, break-ins, sabotage and other similar events beyond our control. The occurrence of a natural disaster or unanticipated problems at our facilities in New York or New Jersey or at any third-party facility we utilize could cause interruptions or delays in our business, loss of data or render us unable to provide our products and services. In addition, failure of a third-party facility to provide the data communications capacity required by us, as a result of human error, bankruptcy, natural disaster or other operational disruption, could cause interruptions to our computer systems and operations. The occurrence of any or all of these events could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
      From time to time, we have experienced, and may experience in the future, network interruptions. These network interruptions may interfere with our ability to do business. Although we regularly back up data and take other measures to protect against data loss and system failures, there is still some risk that we may lose critical data or experience network failures.
      Our software may contain undetected errors, defects or bugs. Although we have not suffered significant harm from any errors or defects to date, we may discover significant errors or defects in the future that we may not be able to correct. Our products and services are integrated with products and systems developed by third parties. Complex third-party software programs may contain undetected errors or bugs when they are first introduced or as new versions are released. It is possible that errors will be found in our existing or future products and services or third-party products upon which our products and services are dependent, with the possible results of delays in or loss of market acceptance of our products and services, diversion of our resources, injury to our reputation, increased service and warranty expenses and payment of damages.
We may face increased competition from RouteOne and the captive financing source affiliates of the manufacturers that have formed RouteOne.
      Our network of financing sources does not include the captive financing sources affiliated with DaimlerChrysler AG, Ford Motor Company, General Motors Corporation or Toyota Motor Corporation, which have formed RouteOne to operate as a direct competitor of ours to serve their respective franchised dealers. RouteOne has the ability to offer its dealers access to captive or other financing sources that are not in our network. RouteOne was launched in November 2003, and officially re-launched in July 2004. Several independent financing sources, including some of the independent financing sources in our network, are participating on the RouteOne credit application processing and routing portal. Currently, we believe the RouteOne credit application processing and routing portal preferences the captive financing sources over the independent financing sources, which we believe has been a hindrance to its efforts to establish a comprehensive network of independent financing sources comparable to our network. However, if RouteOne increases the number of independent financing sources on its credit application processing and routing portal and/or offers products and services that better address the needs of our customers or offer our customers a lower cost alternative, our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected. In addition, if a substantial amount of our current customers migrate from our network to

13


Table of Contents

RouteOne, our ability to sell additional products and services to, or earn transaction revenue from, these customers could diminish. RouteOne has repeatedly approached each of our largest financing source customers seeking to have them join the RouteOne credit application processing and routing portal. Certain of these financing sources, including those affiliated with JPMorgan, an underwriter in this offering, and several of our selling stockholders or their respective affiliates, have engaged, are engaged and/or may in the future engage, in discussions with RouteOne regarding their participation on the RouteOne credit application and routing portal.
We are dependent on several customers that are affiliates of our stockholders.
      We have historically earned a substantial portion of our total revenue from financing source customers that are affiliates of our stockholders. For the year ended December 31, 2004, $19.1 million, or 27%, and for the three months ended March 31, 2005, $6.2 million, or 26% of our total revenue was generated by the nine financing sources that are affiliates of our stockholders. Although each financing source customer is currently a party to an agreement with us, the obligations of the financing sources under these agreements are minimal and these financing source customers, like all of our other financing source customers, may terminate their agreements at the end of their respective terms or for uncured breach. They may also enter into, and in some cases may have already entered into, agreements with our competitors. None of these financing source customers is contractually or otherwise obligated to use our network exclusively. RouteOne has repeatedly approached each of these financing sources seeking to have them join the RouteOne credit application processing and routing portal. Some of our selling stockholders, including those affiliated with JPMorgan, an underwriter in this offering, have engaged, are engaged and/or in the future may engage, in discussions with RouteOne regarding their participation in the RouteOne credit application and routing portal.
      Five of the selling stockholders in this offering are affiliates of certain financing source customers. Each has the right to appoint a member to our board of directors, which will terminate upon the completion of this offering, although only one such selling stockholder currently has an appointed member on our board. Reduced involvement of these financing sources in our governance after this offering due to their loss of a right to designate a member of our board of directors, or the reduction in the level of their equity ownership in us as a result of their sale of our capital stock either pursuant to this offering or following the completion of this offering, may cause them to reduce or discontinue their use of our products and services, which could negatively impact the use of our network by our other customers. The cessation of, or a significant reduction in, participation in our network by these customers, or their participation in a competing business, may have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
Our failure or inability to execute any element of our business strategy could adversely affect our operations.
      Our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations depend on our ability to execute our business strategy, which includes the following key elements:
  •  selling additional products and services to our existing customers;
 
  •  expanding our customer base;
 
  •  expanding our product and service offerings; and
 
  •  pursuing acquisitions and strategic alliances.
      We may not succeed in implementing a portion or all of our business strategy and, even if we do succeed, our strategy may not have the favorable impact on operations that we anticipate. Our success depends on our ability to execute our business plan, leverage our distribution channel and value proposition for dealers, financing sources and other service and information providers, offer a broad array of products and services, provide convenient, high-quality products and services, maintain our technological position and implement other elements of our business strategy.

Table of Contents

      We may not be able to effectively manage the expansion of our operations or achieve the rapid execution necessary to fully avail ourselves of the market opportunity for our products and services. If we are unable to adequately implement our business strategy, our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.
We have a very limited operating history and incurred significant net losses through 2003.
      We have a very limited operating history upon which you may evaluate our business and our prospects. We launched our business as DealerTrack, Inc. in February 2001. We will continue to encounter risks and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in an early stage of development in new and rapidly evolving markets. In order to overcome these risks and difficulties, we must, among other things:
  •  minimize security concerns;
 
  •  increase and retain the number of financing sources and automotive dealers that are active in our network;
 
  •  build brand recognition of our network among dealership employees;
 
  •  prevent and respond quickly to service interruptions;
 
  •  develop our technology, new products and services;
 
  •  reduce the time involved in integrating new financing sources and other third parties into our network; and
 
  •  continue to attract, hire, motivate and retain qualified personnel.
      If we fail to adequately address these risks and difficulties or fail in executing our business strategy, our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations may be materially adversely affected.
      Our losses were $14.9 million, $16.8 million and $3.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2001, December 31, 2002 and December 31, 2003, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2004, we reported net income of $11.3 million and for the three months ended March 31, 2005, we reported net income of $2.1 million.
      Our budgeted operating costs are based on the anticipated growth of our future revenue, which is based on our ability to retain existing automotive dealer and financing source customers, integrate new automotive dealer and financing source customers and launch the products and services we have under development. We may not, however, be able to forecast growth accurately due to our limited operating history. If we do not grow as anticipated and our expenditures are not reduced accordingly, our operating results could decline significantly, and we may not remain profitable.
Our quarterly revenue, operating results and profitability will vary from quarter to quarter, which may result in volatility in our stock price.
      Our quarterly revenue, operating results and profitability have varied in the past and are likely to continue to vary significantly from quarter to quarter. This may lead to volatility in our stock price. These fluctuations are due to several factors related to the number of transactions we process and to the number of subscriptions to our products and services, including:
  •  the volume of new and used automobiles financed or leased by our participating financing source customers;
 
  •  the timing, size and nature of our subscriptions;
 
  •  the incurrence of marketing expenses in the first quarter in connection with the National Automotive Dealers’ Association’s (“NADA”) annual trade show;
 
  •  the timing of introduction and market acceptance of new products, services or product enhancements by us or our competitors;

15


Table of Contents

  •  automobile manufacturers or their captive financing sources offering special incentive programs such as discount pricing or 0% financing;
 
  •  unpredictable sales cycles;
 
  •  the number of weekends, holidays and Mondays in a particular quarter;
 
  •  the timing of our acquisitions of businesses, products and services;
 
  •  product and price competition regarding our products and services and those of our participating financing sources;
 
  •  changes in our operating expenses;
 
  •  software bugs or other computer system or operation disruptions or failures; and
 
  •  personnel changes and fluctuations in economic and financial market conditions.
      We believe that period-to-period comparisons of our results of operations are not necessarily meaningful. We cannot assure you that future revenue and results of operations will not vary substantially from quarter to quarter. It is also possible that in future quarters, our results of operations will be below the expectations of public market analysts, investors or our announced guidance. In either case, the price of our common stock could be materially adversely affected.
We may be unable to develop and bring products and services in development and new products and services to market in a timely manner.
      Our success depends in part upon our ability to bring to market the products and services that we have in development and offer new products and services that meet changing customer needs. The time, expense and effort associated with developing and offering these new products and services may be greater than anticipated. The length of the development cycle varies depending on the nature and complexity of the product, the availability of development, product management and other internal resources, and the role, if any, of strategic partners. If we are unable to develop and bring additional products and services to market in a timely manner, we could lose market share to competitors who are able to offer these additional products and services, which could also materially adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
Some vendors of software products used by automotive dealers, including certain of our competitors, are developing their software and using financial incentives to make it more difficult for our customers to use our products and services.
      Currently, some software vendors have developed software systems that are difficult to integrate with third-party products and services such as ours. Some software vendors also use financial or other incentives to encourage their customers to purchase such vendors’ proprietary complementary products and services. These obstacles could make it more difficult for us to compete with these vendors and could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations. Further, we have agreements in place with various third-party software providers to facilitate integration between their software and our network, and we cannot assure you that each of these agreements will remain in place.
Economic trends that affect the automotive retail industry may have a negative effect on our business.
      Economic trends that negatively affect the automotive retail industry may adversely affect our business by reducing the number of financing source or automotive dealer customers that purchase our products and services or by reducing the amount that such customers spend on our products and services. Purchases of new automobiles are typically discretionary for consumers and may be affected by negative trends in the economy. A reduction in the number of automobiles purchased by consumers may adversely affect our financing source and dealer customers and lead to a reduction in transaction volumes and in spending by our financing source and automotive dealer customers on our subscription products and services. Any such reductions in

16


Table of Contents

transactions or subscriptions could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
The indirect automotive financing and automotive retail industries are subject to extensive and complex federal and state regulation.
      We are directly and indirectly subject to various laws and regulations. Federal laws and regulations governing privacy of consumer information generally apply in the context of our business, such as the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (the “GLB Act”) and its implementing Regulation P, as well as the Fair Credit Reporting Act (the “FCRA”). If a financing source or dealer discloses consumer information provided through our system in violation of these or other laws, we may be subject to claims from such consumers or enforcement actions by state or federal regulators. We cannot predict whether such claims or enforcement actions will arise or the extent to which, if at all, we may be held liable.
      A majority of states have passed, or are currently contemplating, consumer protection, privacy, and data security laws or regulations that may relate to our business. The FCRA contains certain provisions that explicitly preempt some state laws to the extent the state laws seek to regulate certain specified areas, including the responsibilities of persons furnishing information to consumer reporting agencies. Unlike the FCRA, however, the GLB Act does not limit the ability of the states to enact privacy legislation that provides greater protections to consumers than those provided by the GLB Act. Some state legislatures or regulatory agencies have imposed, and others may impose, greater restrictions on the disclosure of consumer information than are already contained in the GLB Act and Regulation P. Any such legislation or regulation could adversely impact our ability to provide our customers with the products and services they require and that are necessary to make our products and services attractive to them. In the event that any state imposes additional statutory or regulatory requirements on us or our customers, we may be required to modify our business model in that state in a manner that may undermine our attractiveness to dealers and/or financing sources doing business in that state. Alternatively, if we determine that a given state’s requirements are overly burdensome or if we determine that our activities cannot be structured in a manner that does not implicate such requirements, we may elect to terminate operations in such state. Any of these circumstances could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
      In the United States, the enforceability of electronic transactions is primarily governed by the Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act (“E-SIGN”), a federal law enacted in 2000 that largely preempts inconsistent state law, and the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act (“UETA”), a uniform state law that was finalized by the National Conference of Commissioners on Uniform State Laws (“NCCUSL”) in 1999 and has now been adopted by most states. Case law has generally upheld the use of electronic signatures in commercial transactions and in consumer transactions where proper notice is provided and consumer consent to electronic contracting is obtained. The Revised Uniform Commercial Code Section 9-105 (“UCC 9-105”), seeks to implement a regime to perfect security interests in electronic chattel paper. These laws impact the degree to which the financing sources in our network use our electronic contracting product. We believe that our electronic contracting product enables the perfection of a security interest in electronic chattel paper by meeting the transfer of “control” requirements of UCC 9-105. However, this issue has not been challenged in any legal proceeding. If a court were to find that our electronic contracting product is not sufficient to perfect a security interest in electronic chattel paper, or if existing laws were to change, our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.
      Our ability to conduct, and our cost of conducting, business may be adversely affected by a number of legislative and regulatory proposals concerning aspects of the Internet, which are currently under consideration by federal, state, local and foreign governments and various courts. These proposals include, but are not limited to, the following matters: on-line content, user privacy, taxation, access charges, liability of third-party activities and jurisdiction. Moreover, we do not know how existing laws relating to these issues will be applied to the Internet. The adoption of new laws or the application of existing laws could decrease the growth in the use of the Internet, which could in turn decrease the demand for our products and services, increase our cost of doing business or otherwise have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and

17


Table of Contents

results of operations. Furthermore, government restrictions on Internet content could slow the growth of Internet use and decrease acceptance of the Internet as a communications and commercial medium and thereby have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
      If a federal or state government or agency imposes additional legislative and/or regulatory requirements on us or our customers, or prohibits or limits our activities as currently structured, we may be required to modify or terminate our products and services in that jurisdiction in a manner which may undermine our attractiveness or availability to dealers and/or financing sources doing business in that jurisdiction.
We utilize certain key technologies from third parties and may be unable to replace those technologies if they become obsolete or incompatible with our products or services.
      Our proprietary on-demand software is designed to work in conjunction with certain software procured by third-party vendors, including Microsoft, Oracle and eOriginal. Any significant interruption in the supply of such third-party software could have a material adverse effect on our network unless and until we can replace the functionality provided by these products. In addition, we are dependent upon these third parties’ ability to enhance their current products, develop new products on a timely and cost-effective basis and respond to emerging industry standards and other technological changes. There can be no assurance that we would be able to replace the functionality provided by the third-party software currently incorporated into our products or services in the event that such software becomes obsolete or incompatible with future versions of our products or services or is otherwise not adequately maintained or updated. Any delay in or inability to replace any such functionality could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations. Furthermore, delays in the release of new and upgraded versions of third-party software products could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
We may be unable to adequately protect, and we may incur significant costs in defending, our intellectual property and other proprietary rights.
      Our success depends, in large part, on our ability to protect our intellectual property and other proprietary rights. We rely upon a combination of trademark, trade secret, copyright, patent and unfair competition laws, as well as license agreements and other contractual provisions, to protect our intellectual property and other proprietary rights. In addition, we attempt to protect our intellectual property and proprietary information by requiring our employees and consultants to enter into confidentiality, non-competition and assignment of inventions agreements. To the extent that our intellectual property and other proprietary rights are not adequately protected, third parties might gain access to our proprietary information, develop and market products and services similar to ours, or use trademarks similar to ours. Existing U.S. federal and state intellectual property laws offer only limited protection. Moreover, the laws of Canada, and any other foreign countries in which we may market our products and services in the future, may afford little or no effective protection of our intellectual property. If we resort to legal proceedings to enforce our intellectual property rights or to determine the validity and scope of the intellectual property or other proprietary rights of others, the proceedings could be burdensome and expensive, and we may not prevail. We are currently asserting our patent rights against RouteOne in a proceeding that challenges their system and method for credit application processing and routing. There can be no assurances that we will prevail in that proceeding or that the proceeding will not result in certain of our patent rights being deemed invalid. See “Business — Legal Proceedings.” The failure to adequately protect our intellectual property and other proprietary rights may have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
      We own the Internet domain names “dealertrack.com,” “alg.com,” “chrome.com,” “dealeraccess.com” and certain other domain names. The regulation of domain names in the United States and foreign countries may change. Regulatory bodies could establish additional top-level domains, appoint additional domain name registrars or modify the requirements for holding domain names, any or all of which may dilute the strength of our domain names. We may not acquire or maintain our domain names in all of the countries in which our websites may be accessed or for any or all of the top-level domain names that may be introduced. The relationship between regulations governing domain names and laws protecting intellectual property rights is

18


Table of Contents

unclear. Therefore, we may not be able to prevent third parties from acquiring domain names that infringe or otherwise decrease the value of our trademarks and other intellectual property rights.
We could be sued for contract or product liability claims, and such lawsuits may disrupt our business, divert management’s attention or have an adverse effect on our financial results.
      We provide guarantees to subscribers of certain of our products and services that the data they receive through these products and services will be accurate. Additionally, general errors, defects or other performance problems in our products and services could result in financial or other damages to our customers. There can be no assurance that any limitations of liability set forth in our contracts would be enforceable or would otherwise protect us from liability for damages. We maintain general liability insurance coverage, including coverage for errors and omissions in excess of the applicable deductible amount. There can be no assurance that this coverage will continue to be available on acceptable terms or in sufficient amounts to cover one or more large claims, or that the insurer will not deny coverage for any future claim. The successful assertion of one or more large claims against us that exceeds available insurance coverage, or the occurrence of changes in our insurance policies, including premium increases or the imposition of large deductible or co-insurance requirements, could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations. Furthermore, litigation, regardless of its outcome, could result in substantial cost to us and divert management’s attention from our operations. Any contract liability claim or litigation against us could, therefore, have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, some of our products and services are business-critical for our financing source customers, and a failure or inability to meet a customer’s expectations could seriously damage our reputation and affect our ability to retain existing business or attract new business.
We have made strategic acquisitions in the past and intend to do so in the future. If we are unable to find suitable acquisitions or partners or to achieve expected benefits from such acquisitions or partnerships, there could be a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
      Since 2001, we have acquired eight businesses. As part of our ongoing business strategy to expand product offerings and acquire new technology, we frequently engage in discussions with third parties regarding, and enter into agreements relating to, possible acquisitions, strategic alliances and joint ventures. There may be significant competition for acquisition targets in our industry, or we may not be able to identify suitable acquisition candidates or negotiate attractive terms for acquisitions. If we are unable to identify future acquisition opportunities, reach agreement with such third parties or obtain the financing necessary to make such acquisitions, we could lose market share to competitors who are able to make such acquisitions, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
      Even if we are able to complete acquisitions or enter into alliances and joint ventures that we believe will be successful, such transactions are inherently risky. Significant risks to these transactions include the following:
  •  integration and restructuring costs, both one-time and ongoing;
 
  •  maintaining sufficient controls, policies and procedures;
 
  •  diversion of management’s attention from ongoing business operations;
 
  •  establishing new informational, operational and financial systems to meet the needs of our business;
 
  •  losing key employees;
 
  •  failing to achieve anticipated synergies, including with respect to complementary products or services; and
 
  •  unanticipated and unknown liabilities.

19


Table of Contents

      If we are not successful in completing acquisitions in the future, we may be required to reevaluate our acquisition strategy. We also may incur substantial expenses and devote significant management time and resources in seeking to complete acquisitions. In addition, we could use substantial portions of our available cash, including a portion of the net proceeds from this offering, to pay all or a portion of the purchase prices of future acquisitions.
Any acquisitions that we complete may dilute your ownership interest in us, may have adverse effects on our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations and may cause unanticipated liabilities.
      Future acquisitions may involve the issuance of our equity securities as payment, in part or in full, for the businesses or assets acquired. Any future issuances of equity securities would dilute your ownership interests. Future acquisitions may also decrease our earnings or earnings per share and the benefits derived by us from an acquisition might not outweigh or might not exceed the dilutive effect of the acquisition. We also may incur additional indebtedness or suffer adverse tax and accounting consequences in connection with any future acquisitions. We incurred indebtedness to finance our recent acquisitions of Chrome, NAT and ALG and will incur significant interest expense until that indebtedness is repaid. In addition, our depreciation and amortization expense will increase materially as a result of the Chrome, NAT and ALG acquisitions, which were each recorded under the purchase method of accounting. See “Unaudited Combined Condensed Pro Forma Financial Information.” Future acquisitions may have similar or other adverse effects on our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
We may not successfully integrate recent or future acquisitions.
      The integration of the Chrome, NAT and ALG acquisitions involves a number of risks and presents financial, managerial and operational challenges. In particular, we may have difficulty, and may incur unanticipated expenses related to, integrating management and personnel from Chrome, NAT and ALG with our management and personnel. Chrome and ALG earn revenue from the data they collect and generate in their respective businesses. If we are unable to integrate or sell such data in our other products and services, we will not be able to fully realize the business synergies we anticipate from these acquisitions. Several pre-existing customers of Chrome and ALG are also competitors or affiliates of competitors of ours. Some of these customers may elect to find alternative vendors instead of doing business with an affiliate of a competitor. For example, Chrome is party to a contract with General Motors Corporation, an affiliate of General Motors Acceptance Corporation, which has an ownership interest in RouteOne, that expires in 2006. For the year ended December 31, 2004 and the three months ended March 31, 2005, Chrome generated $6.5 million and $1.5 million, respectively, in revenue from General Motors Corporation pursuant to this contract. There can be no assurance that General Motors will renew this contract upon its expiration. Failure to successfully integrate the acquisitions of Chrome, NAT, ALG or any future acquisitions we may make, may have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
Restrictive covenants in our credit facilities may restrict our ability to pursue our business strategies.
      Our credit facilities contain restrictive covenants that limit our ability and our existing or future subsidiaries’ abilities, among other things, to:
  •  access our, or our existing or future subsidiaries’, cash flow and value and, therefore, to pay interest and/or principal on our other indebtedness or to pay dividends on our common stock;
 
  •  incur additional indebtedness;
 
  •  issue preferred stock;
 
  •  pay dividends or make distributions in respect of our, or our existing or future subsidiaries’, capital stock or to make certain other restricted payments or investments;
 
  •  sell assets, including our capital stock;

20


Table of Contents

  •  enter into sale and leaseback transactions;
 
  •  agree to payment restrictions;
 
  •  consolidate, merge, sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of our or the applicable subsidiary’s assets;
 
  •  enter into transactions with our or the applicable subsidiary’s affiliates;
 
  •  incur liens; and
 
  •  designate any of our, or the applicable subsidiary’s, future subsidiaries as unrestricted subsidiaries.
      In addition, our credit facilities include other and more restrictive covenants and prohibit our subsidiaries from prepaying our other indebtedness while indebtedness under our credit facilities is outstanding. The agreements governing our credit facilities also require us and our subsidiaries to achieve specified financial and operating results and maintain compliance with specified financial ratios on a consolidated basis. Our and our subsidiaries’ ability to comply with these ratios may be affected by events beyond our control.
      The restrictions contained in the agreements governing our credit facilities could limit our ability to plan for or react to market conditions or meet capital needs or otherwise restrict our activities or business plans and adversely affect our ability to finance our operations, strategic acquisitions, investments or alliances or other capital needs or to engage in other business activities that would be in our interest.
      A breach of any of these restrictive covenants or our inability to comply with the required financial ratios could result in a default under the agreements governing our credit facilities. If a default occurs, the lenders under our credit facilities may elect to declare all borrowings outstanding, together with accrued interest and other fees, to be immediately due and payable or prevent our subsidiaries from making distributions to us in order for us to make payments on our indebtedness, either of which could result in an event of default under such indebtedness. The lenders will also have the right in these circumstances to terminate any commitments they have to provide further borrowings. If we are unable to repay outstanding borrowings when due, the lenders under our credit facilities will also have the right to proceed against the collateral, including our available cash, granted to them to secure the indebtedness. If the indebtedness under our credit facilities were to be accelerated, we can make no assurances that our assets would be sufficient to repay in full that indebtedness and our other indebtedness. See “Description of Our Credit Facilities.”
We are dependent on our key management, direct sales force and technical personnel for continued success.
      We have grown significantly in recent years, and our management remains concentrated in a small number of key employees. Our future success depends to a significant extent on our executive officers and key employees, including members of our direct sales force and technology staff, such as our software developers and other senior technical personnel. We rely primarily on our direct sales force to sell subscription products and services to automotive dealers. We may need to hire additional sales, customer service, integration and training personnel in the near-term and beyond if we are to achieve revenue growth in the future. The loss of the services of any of these individuals or group of individuals could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
      Competition for qualified personnel in the technology industry is intense and we compete for these personnel with other technology companies that have greater financial and other resources than we do. Our future success will depend in large part on our ability to attract, retain and motivate highly qualified personnel, and there can be no assurance that we will be able to do so. Any difficulty in hiring needed personnel could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
If we fail to effectively manage our growth, our financial results could be adversely affected.
      We have expanded our operations rapidly in recent years. For example, net revenue increased from $11.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2002 to $38.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2003

21


Table of Contents

and $70.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2004. Our growth may place a strain on our management team, information systems and other resources. Our ability to successfully offer products and services and implement our business plan requires adequate information systems and resources and oversight from our senior management. We will need to continue to improve our financial and managerial controls, reporting systems and procedures as we continue to grow and expand our business. As we grow, we must also continue to hire, train, supervise and manage new employees. We may not be able to hire, train, supervise and manage sufficient personnel or develop management and operating systems to manage our expansion effectively. If we are unable to manage our growth, our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.
Claims that we or our technologies infringe upon the intellectual property or other proprietary rights of a third party may require us to incur significant costs, enter into royalty or licensing agreements or develop or license substitute technology.
      We may in the future be subject to claims that our technologies in our products and services infringe upon the intellectual property or other proprietary rights of a third party. In addition, the vendors providing us with technology that we use in our own technology could become subject to similar infringement claims. Although we believe that our products and services do not infringe any intellectual property or other proprietary rights, we cannot assure you that our products and services do not, or that they will not in the future, infringe intellectual property or other proprietary rights held by others. Any claims of infringement could cause us to incur substantial costs defending against the claim, even if the claim is without merit, and could distract our management from our business. Moreover, any settlement or adverse judgment resulting from the claim could require us to pay substantial amounts, or obtain a license to continue to use the products and services that is the subject of the claim, and/or otherwise restrict or prohibit our use of the technology. There can be no assurance that we would be able to obtain a license on commercially reasonable terms from the third party asserting any particular claim, if at all, that we would be able to successfully develop alternative technology on a timely basis, if at all, or that we would be able to obtain a license from another provider of suitable alternative technology to permit us to continue offering, and our customers to continue using, the products and services. In addition, we generally provide in our customer agreements for certain products and services that we will indemnify our customers against third-party infringement claims relating to technology we provide to those customers, which could obligate us to pay damages if the products and services were found to be infringing. Infringement claims asserted against us, our vendors or our customers may have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
We may need additional capital in the future, which may not be available to us, and if we raise additional capital, it may dilute your ownership in us.
      We may need to raise additional funds through public or private debt or equity financings in order to meet various objectives, such as:
  •  acquiring businesses, technologies, products and services;
 
  •  taking advantage of growth opportunities, including more rapid expansion;
 
  •  making capital improvements to increase our capacity;
 
  •  developing new services or products; and
 
  •  responding to competitive pressures.
      Any debt incurred by us could impair our ability to obtain additional financing for working capital, capital expenditures or further acquisitions. Covenants governing any debt we incur would likely restrict our ability to take specific actions, including our ability to pay dividends or distributions on, or redeem or repurchase, our capital stock, enter into transactions with affiliates, merge, consolidate or sell our assets or make capital expenditure investments. In addition, the use of a substantial portion of the cash generated by our operations to cover debt service obligations and any security interests we grant on our assets could limit our financial and business flexibility.

22


Table of Contents

      Any additional capital raised through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities may dilute your ownership percentage in us. Furthermore, any additional debt or equity financing we may need may not be available on terms favorable to us, or at all. If future financing is not available or is not available on acceptable terms, we may not be able to raise additional capital, which could significantly limit our ability to implement our business plan. In addition, we may issue securities, including debt securities, that may have rights, preferences and privileges senior to our common stock.
Our future success depends substantially on continued growth in the use of the Internet by automotive dealers and the indirect automotive finance industry.
      The Internet is a relatively new commercial marketplace for automotive dealers, particularly for their finance and insurance department managers, and may not continue to grow. The market for web-based automotive finance is rapidly evolving and the ultimate demand for and market acceptance of web-based automotive finance remains uncertain. Market acceptance of Internet automotive financing depends on financing sources’ and dealers’ willingness to use the Internet for general commercial and financial services transactions. Other critical issues concerning the commercial use of the Internet, including reliability, cost, ease of use and access and quality of service, may also impact the growth of Internet use by financing sources and dealers. Consequently, web-based automotive financing may not become as widely accepted as traditional methods of financing and electronic contracting may not become as widely accepted as paper contracting. In either case our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected. If Internet use by automotive dealers and financing sources does not continue to grow, dealers may revert to traditional methods of communication with financing sources, such as the fax machine, and thus, our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.
      Additionally, to the extent the Internet’s technical infrastructure or security concerns adversely affect its growth, our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected. The Internet could also lose its commercial viability due to delays in the development or adoption of new standards and protocols required to handle increased levels of activity or due to increased governmental regulation. Changes in or insufficient availability of telecommunication services could produce slower response times and adversely affect Internet use.
  Economic, political and market factors beyond our control could reduce demand for our products and services.
      The indirect automotive retail finance industry is risky and volatile and is directly affected by many national and international factors beyond our control. Any of these factors may cause a substantial decline in credit application processing volume and demand for our other transaction and subscription products and services. These events could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations. These factors include:
  •  economic and political conditions in the United States and elsewhere;
 
  •  concerns over inflation and weakening consumer confidence levels;
 
  •  the level and volatility of interest rates; and
 
  •  legislative and regulatory changes.

Risks Relating to this Offering
Risks relating to transactions and relationships with certain of our stockholders, the underwriters and their respective affiliates.
We are dependent on certain of our financing source customers. Several affiliates of these financing source customers are selling stockholders and an affiliate of one such selling stockholder is acting as an underwriter in this offering.
      We have historically earned a substantial portion of our total revenue from certain financing sources, affiliates of which are selling stockholders in this offering. See “Risk Factors — Risks Relating to Our Business — We are dependent on several of our customers that are affiliates of our stockholders.” In addition, we rely on our financing source customers to receive credit application and electronic contracting data from automotive dealers through our network. Five of these stockholders — ACF Investment Corp., Capital One Auto Finance, Inc., J.P. Morgan Partners (23A SBIC), LLC, Wells Fargo Small Business Investment Company, Inc. and WFS Web Investments — which are affiliates of certain of our financing source customers, have a right to appoint a member of our board of directors that will terminate upon the completion of this offering. None of these financing source customers are contractually or otherwise obligated to continue to use our network exclusively. Reduced involvement in our affairs by these financing sources after this offering due to their affiliates’ loss of a right to designate a member of our board of directors, or the reduction in the level of their affiliates’ equity ownership as a result of these affiliates selling shares of our common stock either as a part of or following the completion of this offering, may cause them to reduce or discontinue their use of our network and other services. This could negatively impact the use of our network by our other financing source and dealer customers. The loss of, or a significant reduction of, participation in our network by these financing source customers may have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
      Our financing source customers continue to receive credit applications and purchase retail installment sales and lease contracts directly from their dealer customers through traditional indirect financing methods, including via facsimile and other electronic means of communication, in addition to through our network. Many of our financing source customers are involved in other ventures as participants and/or as equity holders, and such ventures or newly created ventures may compete with us and our network now and in the future.
      Consortia have developed competing networks to ours, some of which are owned by various financing sources. These competing networks may offer some features that we do not currently offer. Furthermore, our financing source customers have made, and may in the future continue to make, investments in businesses that directly or indirectly compete with us, including, either individually or collectively, organizing or investing in separate companies similar to us for the purpose of competing with us or pursuing corporate opportunities that might be attractive to us. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that such financing source customers’ primary commitments will not be to one of our competitors.
      Currently, we process a substantial majority of the collective indirect automotive finance credit application volume for our financing source customers. Any reduction in the use of our network by our financing source customers would reduce the number of financing alternatives available to our dealer customers and could reduce our dealer customers’ use of our network. The occurrence of any of the foregoing may have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
  Several of our financing source customers or their affiliates will beneficially own, in the aggregate, a significant portion of our outstanding common stock upon the completion of this offering. These customers may have strategic interests that differ from those of our other stockholders.
      Upon completion of this offering, several of our financing source customers or their affiliates will beneficially own, in the aggregate, approximately           % of our outstanding common stock (or approximately           % of our common stock if the underwriters’ over-allotment option to purchase additional shares is exercised in full). These financing source customers may have strategic interests that are different from ours

and those of our other stockholders. For example, in their capacity as financing source customers, they would presumably favor lower credit application and electronic contracting fees. Furthermore, as participants, or potential participants, of competitive networks, they may decide to direct some or all of their business to one or more of our competitors. While these actions, if taken, would presumably reduce our revenue and our market capitalization, and, therefore, the value of their ownership position in us, there can be no assurance that they will not decide to take such actions for their own strategic or other reasons.
      We are not a party to any voting agreement with any of our stockholders, other than voting agreements that terminate upon the completion of this offering, and are not aware of any voting agreements among our financing source customers; however, they may enter into a voting agreement in the future or otherwise vote in a similar manner. To the extent that all of these financing source customers or their affiliates vote similarly, they will be able to determine decisions requiring approval by our stockholders. As a result, they or their affiliates may be able to:
  •  control the composition of our board of directors through their ability to nominate directors and vote their shares to elect them;
 
  •  control our management and policies; and
 
  •  determine the outcome of significant corporate transactions, including changes in control that may be beneficial to other stockholders.
      As a result of these factors, we may be less likely to enter into relationships with competitors of our stockholders, which could impede our ability to expand our business and strengthen our competitive position. Furthermore, these factors could also limit stockholder value by preventing a change in control or sale of us.
A license agreement we have with a financing source customer that is also an affiliate of an underwriter in this offering restricts our ability to utilize the technology licensed under this agreement beyond the automotive finance industry.
      An affiliate of JPMorgan claims certain proprietary rights with respect to certain limited technology developed as of February 1, 2001. We have an exclusive, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free license throughout the world to use this technology in connection with the sale, leasing and financing of automobiles only, and the right to market, distribute and sub-license this technology solely to automotive dealerships, consumers and financing sources in connection with the sale, leasing and financing of automobiles only. The license agreement defines “automobile” as a passenger vehicle or light truck, snowmobiles, recreational vehicles, motorcycles, boats and other watercraft and commercial vehicles and excludes manufactured homes. We are limited in our ability to utilize the licensed technology beyond the automotive finance industry.
We intend to use a portion of the net proceeds of this offering to repay the term loan under our credit facilities entered into with several affiliates of the underwriters.
      Prior to the completion of this offering, an affiliate of JPMorgan owned more than 10% of our outstanding equity securities. In addition, we expect to use the net proceeds of this offering to repay the term loan under our credit facilities entered into with several affiliates of the underwriters. Therefore, these affiliates will receive a portion of the proceeds to us from this offering. See “Use of Proceeds.” Accordingly, this offering is being made in compliance with Rule 2720 of the Conduct Rules of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. William Blair & Company, L.L.C. (“Blair”) has assumed the responsibilities of acting as a “qualified independent underwriter.” In such role, Blair has performed a due diligence investigation of us and participated in the preparation of this prospectus and the registration statement. The offering price of the shares of common stock will be no higher than the price recommended by Blair. See “Underwriting.”
The price of our common stock may be volatile.
      During the past several years, technology stocks listed on The NASDAQ National Market have experienced high levels of volatility and significant declines in value from their historic highs. The trading price of our common stock following this offering may fluctuate substantially. The price of the common stock

that will prevail in the market after this offering may be higher or lower than the price you pay, depending on many factors, some of which are beyond our control and may not be related to our operating performance. The fluctuations could cause you to lose part or all of your investment in our common stock. Factors that could cause fluctuations in the trading price of our common stock include, but are not limited to:
  •  price and volume fluctuations in the overall stock market from time to time;
 
  •  significant volatility in the market price and trading volume of companies in our industry;
 
  •  actual or anticipated changes in our earnings or fluctuations in our operating results or in the expectations of securities analysts;
 
  •  general economic conditions and trends;
 
  •  major catastrophic events;
 
  •  loss of one or more significant customers or strategic alliances;
 
  •  sales of large blocks of our stock;
 
  •  failure or disruption of our network;
 
  •  developments or disputes concerning our patents or other proprietary rights;
 
  •  significant acquisitions, strategic alliances, joint ventures or capital commitments by us or our competitors;
 
  •  legal or regulatory matters, including legal decisions affecting the indirect automotive finance industry or involving the enforceability or order of priority of security interests of electronic chattel paper affecting our electronic contracting product; and
 
  •  additions or departures of key employees.
      In the past, following periods of volatility in the market price of a company’s securities, securities class action litigation has often been brought against that company. Due to the potential volatility of our stock price, we may therefore be the target of securities litigation in the future. Securities litigation could result in substantial costs and divert management’s attention and resources from our business.
If there are substantial sales of our common stock, our stock price could decline.
      If our stockholders sell large numbers of shares of our common stock or the public market perceives that stockholders might sell shares of common stock, the market price of our common stock could decline significantly. All of the shares being sold in this offering will be freely tradable without restriction or further registration under the U.S. federal securities laws, unless purchased by our “affiliates” as that term is defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).
      As of the date of this prospectus, after giving effect to this offering, we will have outstanding                      shares of common stock. The shares of common stock being sold in this offering may be resold in the public market immediately. The remaining                      shares, or           % of our outstanding shares after this offering, are currently restricted as a result of the application of securities laws or by virtue of lock-up agreements entered into with the underwriters in connection with this offering, but may be sold in the near future as set forth below.

          shares, or   %
  Beginning 180 days after the date of this prospectus due to lock-up agreements between the holders of these shares and the underwriters. However, JPMorgan and Lehman Brothers may waive the provisions of these lock-up agreements and allow these stockholders to sell their shares prior to the expiration of the 180-day lock-up period.
      Upon completion of this offering, subject to certain conditions, holders of an aggregate of approximately                      shares of common stock will have rights with respect to the registration of these shares of common stock with the Securities and Exchange Commission. If we register their shares of common stock following the expiration of their lock-up agreements entered into with the underwriters, they may sell these shares in the public market.
      Promptly following completion of this offering, we intend to register approximately 5,729,396 shares of common stock that are authorized for issuance under our stock plans. As of May 31, 2005, 3,550,446 shares were issuable upon exercise of outstanding options. Additionally, we intend to register approximately 1,500,000 shares of common stock that are authorized for issuance under our employee stock purchase plan. Once we register the shares authorized for issuance under our stock plans, they may be freely sold in the public market upon issuance, subject to the lock-up agreements referred to above and the restrictions imposed on our affiliates under Rule 144 under the Securities Act.
If you purchase shares of our common stock in this offering, you will experience immediate and substantial dilution in the book value of your shares.
      The assumed initial public offering price is substantially higher than the net tangible book value per share of our common stock. If you purchase shares of our common stock in this offering, you will pay a price per share that substantially exceeds the net tangible book value per share of our common stock. Investors purchasing common stock in this offering will incur immediate and substantial dilution of $           per share, based on an assumed initial public offering price of $           per share. Further, investors purchasing common stock in this offering will contribute approximately           % of the total amount invested by stockholders since our inception, but will own only approximately           % of the shares of common stock outstanding. This dilution is due in large part to the fact that our earlier investors paid substantially less than the price of the shares being sold in this offering when they purchased their shares of our capital stock. You will experience additional dilution upon the exercise of stock options to purchase common stock and the issuance of restricted stock to our employees under our stock plans. In addition, we may utilize our common stock as consideration to fund future acquisitions, which could cause you to experience further dilution. See “Dilution.”
We have broad discretion in the use of a significant portion of the proceeds of this offering.
      A portion of the net proceeds that we receive from this offering will be used to repay the term loan under our credit facilities and the remainder, or “excess proceeds,” as determined by management in its sole discretion, will be used for general corporate purposes including working capital and capital expenditures, as well as for the possible acquisition of or investment in, companies, technologies, products, services or assets that we believe are complementary to our current or future business. However, we have not determined the specific allocation of the excess proceeds among the various uses described in this prospectus. Our management will have broad discretion over the use and investment of the excess proceeds, and, accordingly, investors in this offering will need to rely upon the judgment of our management with respect to the use of the excess proceeds, with only limited information concerning management’s specific intentions. See “Use of Proceeds.”

Table of Contents

Insiders will continue to have substantial control over us after this offering and could limit your ability to influence the outcomes of key transactions, including a change of control.
      Our stockholders that own more than 5% of our equity securities, directors and executive officers, and entities affiliated with them, beneficially owned approximately 92.0% of the outstanding shares of our equity securities as of May 31, 2005, and will beneficially own approximately           % of the outstanding shares of our common stock after this offering. Accordingly, these principal stockholders, directors and executive officers, and entities affiliated with them, if acting together, may be able to influence or control matters requiring approval by our stockholders, including the election of directors and the approval of mergers, acquisitions or other extraordinary transactions. They may also have interests that differ from yours and may vote in a way with which you disagree and which may be adverse to your interests. The concentration of ownership may have the effect of delaying, preventing or deterring a change of control of our company, could deprive our stockholders of an opportunity to receive a premium for their common stock as part of a sale of our company and might ultimately affect the market price of our common stock.
The requirements of being a public company may strain our resources and distract management.
      As a public company, we will incur significant legal, accounting, corporate governance and other expenses that we did not incur as a private company. We will be subject to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (“Sarbanes-Oxley”), the NASDAQ Stock Market and other rules and regulations. These rules and regulations may place a strain on our systems and resources. The Exchange Act requires, among other things, that we file annual, quarterly and current reports with respect to our business and financial condition. Sarbanes-Oxley requires, among other things, that we maintain effective disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting. We currently do not have an internal audit group. In order to maintain and improve the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting, significant resources and management oversight will be required. As a result, management’s attention may be diverted from other business concerns, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, we will need to hire additional legal and accounting staff with appropriate public company experience and technical accounting knowledge and we cannot assure you that we will be able to do so in a timely fashion.
      These rules and regulations may make it more difficult and more expensive for us to obtain director and officer liability insurance and we may be required to accept reduced policy limits and coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain the same or similar coverage. As a result, it may be more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified individuals to serve on our board of directors or as executive officers. We are currently evaluating and monitoring developments with respect to these rules, and we cannot predict or estimate the amount of additional costs we may incur or the timing of such costs.
Some provisions in our certificate of incorporation and by-laws may deter third parties from acquiring us.
      Our fifth amended and restated certificate of incorporation and our amended and restated by-laws contain provisions that may make the acquisition of our company more difficult without the approval of our board of directors, including, but not limited to, the following:
  •  our board of directors is classified into three classes, each of which serves for a staggered three-year term;
 
  •  only our board of directors may call special meetings of our stockholders;
 
  •  we have authorized undesignated preferred stock, the terms of which may be established and shares of which may be issued without stockholder approval;
 
  •  our stockholders have only limited rights to amend our by-laws; and
 
  •  we require advance notice for stockholder proposals.

Table of Contents

      These anti-takeover defenses could discourage, delay or prevent a transaction involving a change in control of our company. These provisions could also discourage proxy contests and make it more difficult for you and other stockholders to elect directors of your choosing and cause us to take other corporate actions you desire. In addition, because our board of directors is responsible for appointing the members of our management team, these provisions could in turn affect any attempt by our stockholders to replace current members of our management team.
      In addition, we are subject to Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law which, subject to certain exceptions, prohibits “business combinations” between a publicly-held Delaware corporation and an “interested stockholder,” which is generally defined as a stockholder who becomes a beneficial owner of 15% or more of a Delaware corporation’s voting stock, for a three-year period following the date that such stockholder became an interested stockholder. Section 203 could have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of our company that our stockholders might consider to be in their best interests.

USE OF PROCEEDS
      We estimate that the net proceeds to us from the sale of the primary shares of common stock in this offering will be approximately $           million, assuming an initial public offering price of $           per share and after deducting the estimated underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us. If the underwriters exercise the over-allotment option, in full, we estimate that the net proceeds to us from such exercise will be approximately $           million. We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of the shares by the selling stockholders.
      We are required to use up to 25% of the net offering proceeds to repay the $25.0 million term loan under our credit facilities and will use the remainder for general corporate purposes, including working capital and capital expenditures. In addition, we believe opportunities may exist to expand our current business through strategic alliances and select acquisitions and we may use a portion of the net proceeds for the acquisition of, or investment in, companies, technologies, products, services or assets that we believe complement our current or future business. We currently do not have any definitive agreement in place with respect to any significant acquisitions or investments. However, we regularly engage in discussions with respect to potential transactions.
      Pending use of the net proceeds as described above, we intend to invest the net proceeds of this offering in short-term, marketable securities.
      The term loan under our credit facilities matures on April 15, 2010. As of May 31, 2005, the term loan bore interest at an effective rate of 5.0%. We used the proceeds of the term loan to fund a portion of the Chrome, NAT and ALG acquisitions. For additional information on our credit facilities, see “Description of Our Credit Facilities.”
      The affiliates of the underwriters that are lenders under our credit facilities will receive a portion of the proceeds to us from this offering, which will be used to repay the term loan in an amount proportional to each lender’s respective outstanding loan amounts under the term loan. See “Underwriting.”
DIVIDEND POLICY
      We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our common stock. We currently intend to retain earnings, if any, to finance the growth and development of our business and we do not expect to pay any cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. Payment of future dividends, if any, will be at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend on our financial condition, results of operations, general business condition, restrictions contained in current or future debt agreements and other factors our board of directors deems relevant. The terms of our credit facilities also restrict us from paying cash dividends on our common stock under certain circumstances. See “Description of Our Credit Facilities.”

DILUTION
      As of March 31, 2005, our net tangible book value was $28.2 million, or $53.96 per share. Net tangible book value per share represents the amount of our total tangible assets less total liabilities, divided by the number of shares of common stock outstanding before giving effect to this offering and the conversion of all outstanding shares of our redeemable convertible participating preferred stock.
      After giving effect to our sale of                     primary shares of common stock in this offering, at an assumed initial public offering price of $           per share (the mid-point of the price range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus), less estimated underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us, and the anticipated application of the proceeds from the offering, our net tangible book value as of March 31, 2005 would have been approximately $          , or $           per share. This represents an immediate increase in net tangible book value per share of $          to existing stockholders and immediate dilution in net tangible book value of $           per share to new investors purchasing our common stock in the offering at the assumed initial public offering price. Dilution per share to new investors is determined by subtracting net tangible book value per share after this offering from the initial public offering price per share paid by a new investor. The following table illustrates the per share dilution without giving effect to the over-allotment option granted to the underwriters:

    March 31,   Pro Forma,

Increase in net tangible book value per share attributable to conversion of all outstanding shares of redeemable convertible participating preferred stock
               
Net tangible book value per share after the offering
               
             
Dilution in net tangible book value per share to new investors
          $    
             
      If the underwriters exercise their over-allotment option in full, the net tangible book value per share after the offering would be $           per share, the increase in net tangible book value per share to existing stockholders would be $           per share and the dilution in net tangible book value to new investors would be $           per share.

      The following table gives effect to the conversion of all outstanding shares of redeemable convertible participating preferred stock into shares of common stock and summarizes, as of March 31, 2005, the differences between the number of shares of common stock purchased from us, the total cash consideration paid and the average price per share paid by our existing stockholders and by new investors in this offering. We have used the initial public offering price of $           per share (the mid-point of the price range set forth on the cover page of this prospectus), and have not deducted the underwriting discounts and commissions and other expenses of the offering:

      The share data in the table above are based on shares outstanding as of May 31, 2005 and excludes:
  •  3,550,446 shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of outstanding stock options under our 2001 Stock Option Plan and 2005 Incentive Award Plan at a weighted average exercise price of $5.97 per share, of which 997,593 options were exercisable; and
 
  •  2,178,950 shares of common stock reserved for future issuance under our 2005 Incentive Award Plan.
      If the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised in full, the following will occur:
  •  the percentage of shares of common stock held by existing stockholders will decrease to approximately           % of the total number of shares of our common stock outstanding after this offering; and
 
  •  the number of shares held by new investors will be increased to                     or approximately           % of the total number of shares of our common stock outstanding after this offering.

The unaudited combined condensed pro forma statement of operations, as adjusted, for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004 gives pro forma effect to the LML, Chrome and ALG acquisitions, the consummation of our credit facilities and this offering, including the application of proceeds therefrom (the “Transactions”), as if each had occurred on January 1, 2004. The unaudited combined condensed pro forma statement of operations, as adjusted, for the three months ended March 31, 2005 gives pro forma effect to the Chrome and ALG acquisitions, the consummation of our credit facilities and this offering, including the application of proceeds therefrom, as if each had occurred on January 1, 2004. We collectively refer to the adjustments relating to the LML, Chrome and ALG acquisitions, including the financing thereof, as the case may be, as the “Acquisition Adjustments” and the adjustments relating to this offering, including the use of proceeds therefrom, as the “Offering Adjustments.” The pro forma effect of the acquisition of GO BIG! Software, Inc. (“Go Big”) has not been included in the unaudited combined condensed pro forma financial information as it is not considered a significant acquisition. The adjustments, which are based upon available information and upon assumptions that management believes to be reasonable, are described in the accompanying notes. The unaudited combined condensed pro forma financial information is for informational purposes only and should not be considered indicative of actual results that would have been achieved had the Transactions actually been consummated on the dates indicated and does not purport to be indicative of results of operations as of any future date or for any future period.
      The unaudited combined condensed pro forma financial information reflects that the acquisitions were recorded under the purchase method of accounting. Under the purchase method of accounting, the total purchase price, including direct acquisition costs, is allocated to the net assets acquired based upon estimates of the fair value of those assets and liabilities. Any excess purchase price is allocated to goodwill. The preliminary allocation of the purchase price of the Chrome and ALG acquisitions was based upon an estimate of the fair value of the acquired assets and liabilities in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 141, “Business Combinations.” Currently, we are completing a fair value assessment of the acquired assets, liabilities and identifiable intangibles for each of Chrome and ALG and at the conclusion of the valuations, the purchase prices will be allocated accordingly.
      You should read our unaudited combined condensed pro forma financial information and the related notes hereto in conjunction with “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” our historical consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto, the historical consolidated financial statements of LML and the related notes thereto, the historical financial statements of Chrome and the related notes thereto and the historical combined financial statements of ALG and the related notes thereto, included elsewhere in this prospectus.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED COMBINED CONDENSED PRO FORMA
STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS
(Dollars in thousands, except where noted otherwise)
      (1) Derived from the audited consolidated statement of operations for DealerTrack for the year ended December 31, 2004. Also, derived from the unaudited consolidated statement of operations for DealerTrack for the three months ended March 31, 2005.
      (2) Derived from the audited consolidated statement of operations for LML for the seven months ended July 31, 2004, the audited statement of operations for Chrome for the year ended December 31, 2004 and the audited combined statement of operations for ALG for the year ended December 31, 2004. Also, derived from the unaudited statement of operations for Chrome for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and the unaudited combined statement of operations for ALG for the three months ended March 31, 2005.
      (3) Our unaudited combined condensed pro forma statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2004 is presented as if the LML acquisition had been completed on January 1, 2004. The unaudited combined condensed pro forma statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2004 combines our results of operations and LML’s for the seven months ended July 31, 2004, as the results of operations related to the assets we acquired and liabilities we assumed from LML for the period August 1, 2004 to December 31, 2004 are already in the DealerTrack results of operations.
      On August 1, 2004, we acquired substantially all the assets and certain liabilities of LML. The aggregate purchase price was $13.1 million (including direct acquisition costs of $0.3 million) in cash. $8.0 million of the purchase price (excluding direct acquisition costs) was payable at closing and the remaining payments of $4.8 million are payable as follows: $1.0 million, $1.0 million, $1.5 million and $1.3 million are payable on the first, second, third and fourth anniversaries of the effective date, respectively. Under the terms of the purchase agreement, we have future payment obligations if certain contingency increases in dealer subscribers are met through July 2008. The additional purchase consideration, if any, will be recorded as additional goodwill on our consolidated balance sheet when the contingency is resolved. The LML acquisition was recorded under the purchase method of accounting, resulting in the total purchase price being allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed according to their estimated fair market values at the date of acquisition as follows:
         
Current assets
  $ 177  
Property and equipment
    183  
Intangible assets
    10,140  
Goodwill
    8,089  
       
Total assets acquired
    18,589  
Total liabilities assumed
    (5,464 )
       
Net assets acquired
  $ 13,125  
       
      We allocated amounts to intangible assets and goodwill based on independent fair value appraisals, which break down as follows: $7.2 million of the purchase price to customer contracts, $1.7 million to purchased technology and $1.2 million to a non-compete agreement. These intangibles are being amortized on a straight-line basis over two to five years based on each intangible’s estimated useful life. We also recorded $8.1 million in goodwill, which represents the remainder of the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired.
      On May 10, 2005, we acquired substantially all the assets and certain liabilities of Chrome for a purchase price of $20.3 million (including direct acquisition costs of approximately $0.3 million) in cash. For the year ended December 31, 2004, Chrome had revenue of $12.8 million. The Chrome acquisition was recorded under the purchase method of accounting, resulting in the total purchase price being preliminarily allocated to the

NOTES TO UNAUDITED COMBINED CONDENSED PRO FORMA
STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS — (Continued)
assets acquired and liabilities assumed according to their estimated fair market values at the date of acquisition as follows:
         
Current assets
  $ 2,518  
Property and equipment
    912  
Intangible assets
    17,754  
       
Total assets acquired
    21,184  
Total liabilities assumed
    (859 )
       
Net assets acquired
  $ 20,325  
       
      Currently, we are completing a fair value assessment of the acquired assets, liabilities and identifiable intangibles and at the conclusion of the valuation the purchase price will be allocated accordingly.
      On May 25, 2005, we acquired substantially all the assets and certain liabilities of ALG for a purchase price of $39.5 million (including direct acquisition costs of approximately $0.3 million) in cash and notes payable to ALG. Additional contingent consideration of $11.3 million may be paid upon certain future increases in revenue of Automotive Lease Guide (ALG), Inc. and another subsidiary through December 2009. We did not acquire the equity interest in us owned by ALG as part of the acquisition and DJR US, LLC, which was formerly known as Automotive Lease Guide (alg), LLC, remains one of our stockholders. This acquisition was recorded under the purchase method of accounting, resulting in the total purchase price being preliminarily allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed according to their estimated fair market values at the date of acquisition as follows:
         
Current assets
  $ 95  
Property and equipment
    259  
Intangible assets
    39,256  
       
Total assets acquired
    39,610  
Total liabilities assumed
    (88 )
       
Net assets acquired
  $ 39,522  
       
      Currently, we are completing a fair value assessment of the acquired assets, liabilities and identifiable intangibles and at the conclusion of the valuation the purchase price will be allocated accordingly.
(4) The components of the pro forma adjustments to net revenue are as follows:
         
Reversal of LML factored revenue(a)
  $ (14,456 )
Reversal of Chrome revenue(b)
    (1,392 )
Reversal of ALG revenue(b)
    (371 )
Elimination of intercompany revenue
    (760 )
       
Total of adjustment (4)
  $ (16,979 )
       
 
  (a)  LML, subsequent to the execution of certain arrangements with its customers, transferred the rights to the payment streams under supply and licensing arrangements with finance companies at a discount. The amounts received from the transferred contracts were then recorded as collateralized borrowings. The outstanding balance is reduced as LML recognized the revenue from these contracts ratably over the contract period (typically greater than 12 months). As of the acquisition date, we assumed the liability of servicing the transferred contracts, but not the cash associated with the transferred contracts. Assuming that we had purchased LML on January 1, 2004, we would not have had the right to any of the revenue recognized subsequent to January 1, 2004 for contracts that were transferred prior to January 1, 2004.
 
  (b)  Adjustments represent the reversal of revenue recognized by Chrome and ALG relating to cash that was received prior to January 1, 2004, as such we would not have the right to any of that revenue as we would have never collected any of the cash.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED COMBINED CONDENSED PRO FORMA
STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS — (Continued)
(5) The components of pro forma adjustment (5) are as follows:
         
Amortization expense for LML-acquired identifiable intangible assets using a three year life
  $ 2,044  
Elimination of intercompany expense
    (760 )
LML accrued servicing costs
    (1,358 ) (a)
Amortization expense for Chrome acquired identifiable intangible assets using a three year life
    5,902  
Amortization expense for ALG acquired identifiable intangible assets using a three year life
    13,088  
LML license royalties
    (413 ) (b)
       
Total of adjustment (5)
  $ 18,503  
       
 
  (a)  Adjustment represents the incremental cost that we will incur as it relates to servicing the transferred contracts noted above in 4(a). Assuming that we purchased LML on January 1, 2004, the assumed liability for such contracts would have been recorded in purchase accounting and the costs would not have been recorded in the income statement.
 
  (b)  Adjustment represents a royalty expense that LML paid to a related party for the license of certain technology. Assuming that we acquired LML on January 1, 2004, we would not have incurred any royalty expense relating to the license of certain technology, as this technology was acquired from the related party under the purchase agreement.
(6) Represents the pro forma adjustments made to record depreciation and amortization expense assuming that we acquired LML, Chrome and ALG on January 1, 2004, coupled with the reversal of Chrome legal expenses related to a lawsuit not assumed by us under the purchase agreement.
(7) Adjustment represents interest expense relating to accounting for the transferred contracts noted above in 4(a) and outstanding amounts on a line of credit for LML. Assuming we acquired LML on January 1, 2004, we would not have had the line of credit and not have had the effects of accounting for such contracts. Additionally, this amount represents the addition of the estimated annual interest expense on the borrowings under our credit facilities.
(8) Primarily represents the elimination of intercompany revenue.
(9) Primarily represents the quarterly amortization expense of acquired identifiable intangibles related to the Chrome and ALG acquisitions, offset by the elimination of intercompany cost of revenue.
(10) Represents the pro forma adjustments made to record depreciation and amortization expense assuming that we acquired Chrome and ALG on January 1, 2004, coupled with the reversal of Chrome legal expenses related to a lawsuit not assumed by us under the purchase agreement.
(11) Adjustment represents the addition of the estimated quarterly interest expense on the borrowings under our credit facilities.
(12) Adjustments represent the elimination of the deferred tax benefit originally recognized in the year ended December 31, 2004 and the elimination of the tax provision originally recognized in the three months ended March 31, 2005, both entries are due to the pro forma loss before provision for income taxes.
(13) The combined pro forma net loss for the year ended December 31, 2004 and for the three months ended March 31, 2005 (unaudited) is not required to be allocated to our preferred stockholders for purpose of computing the combined pro forma net loss per share under the two-class method as our preferred stockholders do not have an obligation to share in our net loss. In addition, for the year ended December 31, 2004 and the three months ended March 31, 2005 (unaudited), the effect of the potential exercise of stock options and conversion of preferred stock was not considered in the diluted pro forma earnings per share calculation since it would have been antidilutive.

SELECTED HISTORICAL CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL DATA
      The selected historical consolidated financial data as of December 31, 2003 and 2004 and for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2004 have been derived from our consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included in this prospectus, which have been audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm. The selected historical consolidated financial data as of December 31, 2001 and December 31, 2002 and for the year ended December 31, 2001 have been derived from our audited consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto, which are not included in this prospectus, which have also been audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP. The selected historical consolidated financial data as of March 31, 2005 and for each of the three-month periods ended March 31, 2004 and March 31, 2005 have been derived from our unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included in this prospectus. These unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a basis consistent with our audited consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, the unaudited financial data reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal and recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of the results for those periods. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year or any future period.
      We completed several acquisitions during the periods presented below, the operating results of which have been included in our historical results of operations from the respective acquisition dates. These acquisitions have significantly affected our revenue, results of operations and financial condition. Accordingly, the results of operations for the periods presented may not be comparable due to these acquisitions.
      The following data should be read in conjunction with “Unaudited Combined Condensed Pro Forma Financial Information,” “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” and our consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included elsewhere in this prospectus.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
      You should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included in this prospectus. In addition to historical information, this discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions, which could cause actual results to differ materially from management’s expectations. Certain factors that may cause such a difference, include, but are not limited to, those discussed under the section entitled “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this prospectus. See “Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”
Overview
      DealerTrack is a leading provider of on-demand software solutions for the automotive retail industry in the United States. We utilize the Internet to link automotive dealers with banks, finance companies, credit unions and other financing sources, and other service and information providers, such as the major credit reporting agencies. We have established a network of active relationships with over 20,000 automotive dealers, including over 80% of all franchised dealers; over 140 financing sources, including the 20 largest independent financing sources in the United States and eight captive financing sources; and a number of other service and information providers to the automotive retail industry. Our credit application processing product enables dealers to automate and accelerate the indirect automotive financing process by increasing the speed of communications between these dealers and their financing sources. We have leveraged our leading market position in credit application processing to address other inefficiencies in the automotive retail industry value chain. Our proven network of over 20,000 dealers provides a competitive advantage for distribution of our on-demand software and data solutions. Our integrated subscription-based software products and services enable our automotive dealer customers to receive valuable consumer leads, compare various financing and leasing options and programs, sell insurance and other aftermarket products, document compliance with certain laws and execute financing contracts electronically. In addition, we offer data and other products and services to various industry participants, including lease residual value and automobile configuration data.
Revenue
      Transaction Services Revenue. Transaction revenue consists of revenue earned from our financing source customers for each credit application or electronic contract submitted to them. Additionally, we earn transaction fees from dealers or credit report providers for each fee-bearing credit report accessed by dealers.
      Subscription Services Revenue. Subscription revenue consists of recurring fees paid to us by dealers (generally on a monthly basis) for use of our on-demand products and services, which enable those automotive dealer customers to obtain valuable consumer leads, compare various financing and leasing options and programs, sell insurance and other aftermarket products and execute financing contracts electronically.
      Over the last three years, we have derived an increasing percentage of our net revenue from subscription fees. For the year ended December 31, 2002, we derived approximately 3.5% of our net revenue from subscription fees, for the year ended December 31, 2003, we derived approximately 10.6% of our net revenue from subscription fees and for the year ended December 31, 2004, we derived approximately 24.3% of our net revenue from subscription fees. We expect that we will derive an increasing percentage of our net revenue from subscription fees in future years.
Cost of Revenue and Operating Expenses
      Cost of Revenue. Cost of revenue primarily consists of expenses related to running our network infrastructure (including Internet connectivity and data storage), customer training, depreciation associated with computer equipment, compensation and related benefits for network personnel, amounts paid to third parties pursuant to contracts under which a portion of certain revenue is owed to those third parties (“revenue share”), allocated overhead and amortization associated with capitalization of software. We allocate overhead such as rent and occupancy charges, employee benefit costs and non-network related depreciation expense to

45


Table of Contents

all departments based on headcount, as we believe this to be the most accurate measure. As a result, a portion of general overhead expenses is reflected in our cost of revenue and each operating expense category.
      Product Development Expenses. Product development expenses consist primarily of compensation and related benefits, consulting fees and other operating expenses associated with our product development departments. The product development departments perform research and development, enhance and maintain existing products, and provide quality assurance.
      Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses consist primarily of compensation and related benefits, facility costs and professional services fees for our sales, marketing and administrative functions. As a public company our expenses and administrative burden will increase, including significant legal, accounting and other expenses that we did not incur as a private company. For example, we will need to revise the roles and duties of our board committees, adopt additional internal controls and disclosure controls and procedures and bear all of the internal and external costs of preparing and distributing periodic public reports in compliance with our obligations under the securities laws, including the addition of new personnel.
Acquisitions
      We have grown our business since inception through a combination of organic growth and acquisitions. The operating results of each business acquired have been included in our consolidated financial statements from the respective dates of acquisition.
      On May 25, 2005, we acquired substantially all the assets and certain liabilities of ALG. ALG’s products and services provide lease residual value data for new and used leased automobiles and guidebooks and consulting services related thereto, to manufacturers, financing sources, investment banks, automobile dealers and insurance companies. We intend to combine ALG’s lease residual value data with our other products and services to allow us to aggregate automotive industry information and report the aggregated information to dealers, financing sources and other industry participants. The purchase price was $39.5 million (including direct acquisition costs of approximately $0.3 million) in cash and notes payable to ALG. Additional consideration of up to $11.3 million may be paid contingent upon certain future increases in revenue of Automotive Lease Guide (ALG), Inc. and another of our subsidiaries through December 2009. We did not acquire the equity interest in us owned by ALG as part of this acquisition and DJR US, LLC, which was formerly known as Automotive Lease Guide (alg), LLC, remains one of our stockholders. For the year ended December 31, 2004, ALG had revenue of $7.8 million.
      On May 23, 2005, we acquired substantially all the assets and certain liabilities of NAT. NAT’s products and services streamline and automate many traditionally time-consuming and error-prone manual processes of administering aftermarket products, such as extended service contracts, guaranteed asset protection coverage, theft deterrent devices and credit life insurance. We intend to add NAT’s products and services to our suite of solutions in order to enhance our menu-selling offering and to add insurance and other aftermarket providers to our network. The purchase price was $8.7 million (including direct acquisition costs of approximately $0.2 million) in cash. For the year ended December 31, 2004, NAT had revenue of $3.2 million.
      On May 10, 2005, we acquired substantially all the assets and certain liabilities of Chrome. Chrome’s products and services collect, standardize and enhance raw automotive data and deliver it in a format that is easy to use and tailored to specific industry requirements. Chrome’s products and services enable dealers, manufacturers, financing sources, Internet portals, consumers and insurance companies to configure, compare, and price automobiles on a standardized basis. This provides more accurate valuations for both consumer trade-ins and dealer used automobile inventory. We intend to integrate Chrome’s products and services into our network to create an expanded subscription product offering for our dealer customers. The purchase price was $20.3 million (including direct acquisition costs of approximately $0.3 million) in cash. For the year ended December 31, 2004, Chrome had revenue of $12.8 million.
      On January 1, 2005, we purchased substantially all the assets of Go Big. This acquisition expanded our products and services offering to include an electronic menu selling tool to our automotive dealers. The

purchase price was approximately $1.2 million (including direct acquisition costs of approximately $0.1 million) in cash. Under the terms of our purchase agreement, additional consideration of up to $2.3 million may be paid contingent upon certain unit sale increases through December 2006. For the year ended December 31, 2004, Go Big had revenue of $1.2 million.
      On August 1, 2004, we purchased substantially all the assets and certain liabilities of LML. This acquisition provided us with a significant enhancement to the capability of our network by allowing us to begin to offer dealers a more comprehensive solution to compare various financing and leasing options and programs. The aggregate purchase price was $13.1 million (including direct acquisition costs of $0.3 million) in cash. $8.0 million of the purchase price (exclusive of direct acquisition costs) was payable at closing and the remaining payment of $4.8 million is payable as follows: $1.0 million, $1.0 million $1.5 million and $1.3 million are payable on the first, second, third and fourth anniversaries of the effective date, respectively. Under the terms of our purchase agreement, we have certain additional future contingent payment obligations if certain increases in subscribers to these desking products are met through July 2008. The additional purchase consideration, if any, will be recorded as additional goodwill on our consolidated balance sheet when the contingency is resolved.
      On January 1, 2004, we acquired 100% of the outstanding common stock of dealerAccess Inc., whose wholly-owned Canadian subsidiary, dealerAccess Canada Inc., offers credit application processing and credit bureau products and services similar to ours. This acquisition expanded our dealer and financing source customer base to Canada. The aggregate purchase price was $3.1 million (including direct acquisition costs of $0.2 million) in cash.
      On March 19, 2003, we acquired 100% of the outstanding common stock of Credit Online, Inc., which offered credit application processing and credit bureau products and services similar to ours. This acquisition expanded our dealer and financing source customer base in the United States and allowed us to secure agreements with other service providers, including agreements for dealer management system integration and credit bureau delivery to automotive dealers. We have determined, based on independent fair value appraisals, the aggregate purchase price was $19.7 million (including direct acquisition costs of $0.7 million). The consideration paid consisted of 4,449,856 shares of our series A-2 preferred stock valued at $14.2 million, and 1,483,285 shares of our series C-3 preferred stock valued at $4.8 million.
Acquisition Related Amortization Expense
      All of the acquisitions described above have been recorded under the purchase method of accounting, pursuant to which the total purchase price, including direct acquisition costs, is allocated to the net assets acquired based upon estimates of the fair value of those assets. Any excess purchase price is allocated to goodwill. For the Chrome and ALG acquisitions we have preliminarily allocated purchase price to the acquired assets, liabilities and identifiable intangibles. Presently, we are completing a fair value assessment of the assets, liabilities and identifiable intangibles acquired in the Chrome, NAT and ALG transactions and, at the conclusion of those assessments, the purchase prices will be allocated based on our final determination of the fair value of the net assets acquired. Because we expect that a significant amount of the purchase price in these acquisitions will be allocated to identifiable intangibles (primarily customer lists, acquired technology and non-competition agreements), we expect to experience a significantly higher level of amortization expense in the first two to five years following these acquisitions as these identifiable intangibles are amortized.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
      Our management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of our operations are based on our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported for assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses and the disclosure of contingent liabilities. A summary of our significant accounting policies is more fully described in note 2 to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this prospectus.

47


Table of Contents

      Our critical accounting policies are those that we believe are both important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations and that involve difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. The estimates are based on historical experience and on various assumptions about the ultimate outcome of future events. Our actual results may differ from these estimates in the event unforeseen events occur or should the assumptions used in the estimation process differ from actual results.
      We believe the following critical accounting policies affect our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements:
Revenue Recognition
      Transaction Services Revenue. Transaction services revenue consists of revenue derived from the receipt of credit application data by financing sources, from financing contracts executed using our electronic contracting product and from providing automobile dealers the ability to access customer credit reports.
      We offer our web-based service to financing sources for the electronic receipt of credit application data and contract data for automobile financing transactions in consideration for a transaction fee. This service is sold based upon contracts that include fixed and determinable prices and that do not include the right of return or other similar provisions or significant post service obligations. Credit application and electronic contracting processing revenue is recognized on a per transaction basis, after customer receipt and when collectibility is reasonably assured. Set-up fees charged to the financing sources for establishing connections, if any, are recognized ratably over the expected customer relationship period of three or four years, depending on the type of customer.
      Our credit report service provides our dealer customers the ability to access credit reports from several major credit reporting agencies or resellers online. We sell this service based upon contracts with the customer or credit report provider, as applicable that include fixed and determinable prices and that do not include the right of return or other similar provisions or other significant post service obligations. We recognize credit report revenue on a per transaction basis, when services are rendered and when collectibility is reasonably assured. We offer these credit reports on both a reseller and an agency basis. We recognize revenue from all but one provider of credit reports on a net basis due to the fact that we are not considered the primary obligor, and recognize revenue gross with respect to one of the providers as we have the risk of loss and are considered the primary obligor in the transaction.
      Subscription Services Revenue. We derive revenue from subscription fees paid by customers who can access our on-demand and other products and services. These services are typically sold based upon contracts that include fixed and determinable prices and that do not include the right of return or other similar provisions or significant post service obligations. We recognize revenue from such contracts ratably over the contract period. We recognize set-up fees, if any, ratably over the expected customer relationship of three or four years, depending on the type of customer. For contracts that contain two or more products or services, we recognize revenue in accordance with the above policy using relative fair value.
      Our revenue is presented net of a provision for sales credits, which are estimated based on historical results, and established in the period in which services are provided.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
      We maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of our customers to make required payments. The amount of the allowance account is based on historical experience and our analysis of the accounts receivable balance outstanding. While credit losses have historically been within our expectations and the provisions established, we cannot guarantee that we will continue to experience the same credit loss rates that we have in the past. If the financial condition of our customers were to deteriorate, resulting in their inability to make payments, additional allowances may be required which would result in an additional expense in the period that this determination was made.

Goodwill, Other Intangibles and Long-lived Assets
      We record as goodwill the excess of purchase price over the fair value of the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired. Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” (SFAS No. 142), requires goodwill to be tested for impairment annually as well as when an event or change in circumstance indicates an impairment may have occurred. Goodwill is tested for impairment using a two-step approach. The first step tests for impairment by comparing the fair value of our one reporting unit to our carrying amount to determine if there is potential goodwill impairment. If the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying value, an impairment loss is recorded to the extent that the implied fair value of the goodwill of the reporting unit is less than its carrying value.
      For purposes of performing the impairment test for goodwill as required by SFAS No. 142, we operate under one operating segment and one reporting unit. We estimate the fair value of this reporting unit using a discounted cash flow analysis and/or applying various market multiples. From time to time an independent third-party valuation expert may be utilized to assist in the determination of fair value. Determining the fair value of a reporting unit is judgmental and often involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions, such as cash flow projections and discount rates. Our estimate of the fair value of the reporting unit was in excess of its carrying value during 2002, 2003 and 2004. We perform the annual goodwill impairment test as of October 1 of every year.
      Long-lived assets, including fixed assets and intangible assets, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. In reviewing for impairment, the carrying value of such assets is compared to the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected from the use of the assets and their eventual disposition. If such cash flows are not sufficient to support the asset’s recorded value, an impairment charge is recognized to reduce the carrying value of the long-lived asset to its estimated fair value. The determination of future cash flows as well as the estimated fair value of long-lived assets involves significant estimates on the part of management. In order to estimate the fair value of a long-lived asset, we may engage a third party to assist with the valuation. If there is a material change in economic conditions or other circumstances influencing the estimate of our future cash flows or fair value, we could be required to recognize impairment charges in the future.
      We evaluate the remaining useful life of our intangible assets on a periodic basis to determine whether events and circumstances warrant a revision to the remaining estimated amortization period. If events and circumstances were to change significantly, such as a significant decline in the financial performance of our business, we could incur a significant non-cash charge to our income statement.
Income Taxes
      Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the consolidated financial statement carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be reversed. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
Stock-Based Compensation
      We apply the intrinsic value recognition and measurement principles of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” (APB No. 25), and related interpretations and comply with the disclosure provisions of statement of SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” (SFAS No. 123), as amended by SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock Based Compensation — Transition and Disclosure” (SFAS No. 148). Under APB 25, compensation expense is recognized over the vesting period to the extent that the fair market value of the underlying stock on the date of grant exceeds the exercise price of the employee stock option. The calculation of the intrinsic value of a stock award

49


Table of Contents

is based on management’s estimate of the fair value of our common stock. Changes in this estimate could have a material impact on stock compensation expense in our consolidated financial statements.
      The deemed fair value of our common stock for accounting purposes was based on contemporaneous valuations performed by an independent third party and management, and approved by the board of directors. The valuations considered a number of factors, including:
  •  Business risks we faced and key company milestones;
 
  •  Comparable company and industry analysis; and
 
  •  Anticipated initial public offering price per share and the timing of the initial public offering.

The increased volume of transactions processed was the result of the increase in financing source customers active in our network from 62 as of March 31, 2004 to 110 as of March 31, 2005, the increase in automobile dealers active in our network from 17,427 as of March 31, 2004 to 20,109 as of March 31, 2005 and an increase in volume from existing customers. We consider a financing source to be active in our network as of a date if it is accepting credit application data electronically from dealers in our network. We consider a dealer to be active as of a date if the dealer completed at least one revenue-generating transaction using our network during the most recently ended calendar month.
      Subscription Services Revenue. Subscription services revenue increased $3.2 million, or 109%, from $3.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004 to $6.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2005. The increase in subscription services revenue was primarily the result of increased total subscriptions under contract from 4,258 as of March 31, 2004 to 9,825 as of March 31, 2005. The increase in total subscriptions was primarily due to new subscription customers, selling additional subscription products and services to existing customers and our acquisition of LML.
Cost of Revenue and Operating Expenses
      Cost of Revenue. Cost of revenue increased $1.6 million, or 23%, from $6.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004 to $8.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2005. The $1.6 million increase was primarily the result of increased compensation and related benefit costs of $0.7 million due to overall headcount additions in network personnel and revenue share of $0.5 million.
      Product Development Expenses. Product development expenses increased $0.3 million, or 59%, from $0.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004 to $0.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2005. The $0.3 million increase was primarily the result of increased compensation and related benefit costs due to overall headcount additions for the three months ended March 31, 2005.
      Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $4.1 million, or 64%, from $6.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004 to $10.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2005. The $4.1 million increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily the result of increased compensation and related benefit costs of approximately $1.8 million due to overall headcount additions and the recognition of $0.3 million stock-based compensation expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2005, $0.3 million related to travel and marketing related expenses, $0.7 million in professional service fees, and $0.4 million in transition service fees paid for certain ongoing services performed under contract by the selling parties of the acquired entities following the completion of the acquisition.
Provision for Income Taxes
      The provision for income taxes recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2004 of $0.2 million consisted primarily of $59,000 of federal alternative minimum tax and $0.2 million of state and local taxes on taxable income. The provision for income taxes recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2005 of $1.6 million consisted primarily of $1.3 million of federal and $0.3 million of state and local taxes on taxable income. The effective tax rate reflects the impact of the applicable statutory rate for federal and state income tax purposes for the period shown.
Years Ended December 31, 2003 and 2004
Revenue
      Total net revenue increased $31.4 million, or 81%, from $38.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2003 to $70.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2004.
      Transaction Services Revenue. Transaction services revenue increased $19.1 million, or 59%, from $32.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2003 to $51.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2004. The $19.1 million increase in transaction services revenue was primarily the result of the acquisition of

dealerAccess on January 1, 2004 and an increase in the volume of transactions processed through our network from approximately 23.0 million transactions in 2003 to approximately 34.0 million transactions in 2004. The increased volume of transactions was the result of the increase in financing source customers from 55 as of December 31, 2003 to 94 as of December 31, 2004, the increase in automobile dealers active in our network from 15,999 as of December 31, 2003 to 19,150 as of December 31, 2004 and an increase in the volume of transactions from existing customers.
      Subscription Services Revenue. Subscription services revenue increased $12.9 million, or 314%, from $4.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2003 to $17.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2004. The increase in subscription services revenue was primarily the result of our acquisition of LML in August 2004, a full year of subscription services revenue for products and services acquired in the Credit Online transaction, compared to approximately nine months in the year ended December 31, 2003, and increased total subscriptions under contract from 3,030 as of December 31, 2003 to 7,705 as of December 31, 2004. The increase in total subscriptions was primarily due to a net increase in total customers and selling additional products and services to existing customers.
Cost of Revenue and Operating Expenses
      Cost of Revenue. Cost of revenue increased $4.3 million, or 17%, from $25.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2003 to $29.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2004. The $4.3 million increase was primarily the result of increased compensation and related benefit costs of approximately $2.0 million due to increased network personnel headcount, revenue share of approximately $2.6 million, website and disaster recovery, hosting, customer call center, internet connectivity and network infrastructure of approximately $0.6 million, offset by a decrease in depreciation and amortization of $1.0 million and $0.2 million decrease in fees paid to a credit reporting agency for reselling its credit reports.
      Product Development Expenses. Product development expenses increased $0.7 million, or 47%, from $1.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2003 to $2.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2004. The $0.7 million increase was primarily the result of increased compensation and related benefit costs due to overall headcount additions.
      Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $15.4 million, or 102%, from $15.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2003 to $30.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2004. The $15.4 million increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily the result of increased compensation and related benefit costs of approximately $6.3 million due to overall headcount additions, the recognition of $1.3 million stock-based compensation expense, $1.8 million related to travel and marketing related expenses, $2.3 million in professional service fees, $0.8 million in depreciation expense, and $1.3 million in transition service fees paid for certain ongoing services performed under contract by the selling parties of the acquired entities subsequent to the completion of the acquisition.
Benefit (provision) for Income Taxes
      The benefit for income taxes recorded for the year ended December 31, 2004 of $3.6 million consisted primarily of the reversal of a deferred tax valuation allowance in the amount of $4.7 million during the three months ended December 31, 2004 offset by $0.3 million of federal alternative minimum tax and approximately $0.8 million of state and local taxes on taxable income. The reversal of the deferred tax valuation allowance was based on a number of factors, including our profits for the year ended December 31, 2004 and the level of projected future earnings based on current operations. Based on these factors, we believe that it is more likely than not that we will generate sufficient taxable income in the future to be able to utilize a portion of our deferred tax asset outstanding as of December 31, 2004. As a result, we have reversed $5.9 million of the valuation allowance in the three months ended December 31, 2004, recognizing $4.7 million as a benefit to our provision for income taxes, and $1.2 million as an adjustment to goodwill. The goodwill adjustment was necessary since that portion of the reversal relates to net operating losses acquired but not recognized at the date of acquisition of Credit Online Inc. As of December 31, 2004, a valuation allowance of $3.3 million has

52


Table of Contents

been maintained against the remaining acquired tax benefits. If the tax benefit is subsequently recognized, the valuation allowance reversal will be recorded against goodwill.
      The overall effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2003 was impacted by the adjustment for non-deductible goodwill and increases in the valuation allowance. For the year ended December 31, 2004, the effective tax rate was significantly impacted by the release of the valuation allowance.
Years Ended December 31, 2002 and 2003
Revenue
      Total net revenue increased $27.0 million, or 230%, from $11.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2002 to $38.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2003.
      Transaction Services Revenue. Transaction services revenue increased $21.5 million, or 192%, from $11.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2002 to $32.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2003. The increase in transaction services revenue was primarily the result of an increase in the volume of transactions processed through our network from approximately 6.9 million transactions in 2002 to approximately 23.0 million transactions in 2003. The increased volume of transactions processed resulted from the acquisition of Credit Online in March 2003 and the increase in financing source customers from 21 as of December 31, 2002 to 55 as of December 31, 2003, the increase in automobile dealers active on the network from 12,752 as of December 31, 2002 to 15,999 as of December 31, 2003 and an increase in the volume of transactions from existing customers.
      Subscription Services Revenue. Subscription services revenue increased $3.7 million, or 909%, from $0.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2002 to $4.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2003. The increase in subscription services revenue resulted from the acquisition of Credit Online in March 2003 and increased total subscriptions under contract from 317 as of December 31, 2002 to 3,030 as of December 31, 2003. The increase in total subscriptions was primarily due to a net increase in total customers and selling additional products and services to existing customers.
Cost of Revenue and Operating Expenses
      Cost of Revenue. Cost of revenue increased $7.8 million, or 44%, from $17.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2002 to $25.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2003. The $7.8 million increase was primarily the result of increased compensation and related benefit costs of approximately $2.0 million due to increased network personnel headcount, revenue share of approximately $2.5 million, website hosting, customer call center, internet connectivity and network infrastructure of approximately $2.0 million, and approximately $0.6 million relating to fees paid to a credit reporting agency for reselling its credit reports.
      Product Development Expenses. Product development expenses decreased $0.6 million, or 27%, from $2.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2002 to $1.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2003. The $0.6 million decrease was primarily the result of a decrease in website amortization expense.
      Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $6.0 million, or 67%, from $9.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2002 to $15.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2003. The $6.0 million increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily the result of increased compensation and related benefit costs of approximately $3.5 million due to overall headcount additions, $0.5 million increase in bad debt expense, and approximately $1.1 million related to travel and marketing related expenses.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
      Historically, our primary source of liquidity has been cash flow from operations and cash and assets received from financing activities. We received equity investments and issued equity for acquisitions between February 2001 and March 2003 in an aggregate carrying amount of $72.2 million, net of issuance costs. Our current stockholders and their affiliates have no obligation to make future investments in our business. Our principal liquidity requirements have been for working capital, acquisitions, capital expenditures and general corporate purposes.
      Going forward, our liquidity requirements will continue to be for working capital, acquisitions, capital expenditures and general corporate purposes. Our budgeted capital expenditures for 2005 are $7.2 million and we expect to make similar capital expenditures in 2006. We expect to finance our future liquidity needs through cash flow from operations and borrowings under the revolving credit facility under our credit facilities. As of June 30, 2005, we had $6.5 million of availability under our revolving credit facility.
      As of March 31, 2005, we had $18.7 million of cash and cash equivalents and $26.8 million in working capital, as compared to $21.8 million of cash and cash equivalents and $23.4 million in working capital as of December 31, 2004.

Credit Facilities
      On April 15, 2005, we and one of our subsidiaries, DealerTrack, Inc., entered into credit facilities comprised of a $25.0 million revolving credit facility and a $25.0 million term loan facility at interest rates of LIBOR plus 150 basis points or prime plus 50 basis points. Proceeds from borrowings under the term loan facility were used to fund a portion of the Chrome, NAT and ALG acquisitions. The revolving credit facility is available for general corporate purposes (including acquisitions), subject to certain conditions. As of June 30, 2005, we had $6.5 million available for additional borrowings under this revolving credit facility. The revolving credit facility matures on April 15, 2008 and the term loan facility matures on April 15, 2010. We are required to use up to 25% of the proceeds of any equity issuance and 100% of the proceeds of a debt issuance or disposition to repay the term loan under our credit facilities.

Table of Contents

      Our credit facilities contain restrictive covenants that limit our ability and our existing or future subsidiaries’ abilities, among other things, to:
  •  access our, or our existing or future subsidiaries’, cash flow and value and, therefore, to pay interest and/or principal on our other indebtedness or to pay dividends on our common stock;
 
  •  incur additional indebtedness;
 
  •  issue preferred stock;
 
  •  pay dividends or make distributions in respect of our, or our existing or future subsidiaries’, capital stock or to make certain other restricted payments or investments;
 
  •  sell assets, including our capital stock;
 
  •  enter into sale and leaseback transactions;
 
  •  agree to payment restrictions;
 
  •  consolidate, merge, sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of our or the applicable subsidiary’s assets;
 
  •  enter into transactions with our or the applicable subsidiary’s affiliates;
 
  •  incur liens; and
 
  •  designate any of our, or the applicable subsidiary’s, future subsidiaries as unrestricted subsidiaries.
      In addition, our credit facilities include other and more restrictive covenants and prohibit our subsidiaries from prepaying our other indebtedness while indebtedness under our credit facilities is outstanding. The agreements governing our credit facilities also require us and our subsidiaries to achieve specified financial and operating results and maintain compliance with specified financial ratios on a consolidated basis. Our and our subsidiaries’ ability to comply with these ratios may be affected by events beyond our control.
      Our credit facilities contain the following affirmative covenants, among others: delivery of financial statements, reports, accountants’ letters, budgets, officers’ certificates and other information requested by the lenders; payment of other obligations; continuation of business and maintenance of existence and material rights and privileges; compliance with laws and material contractual obligations; maintenance of property and insurance; maintenance of books and records; right of the lenders to inspect property and books and records; notices of defaults, bankruptcies and other material events; and compliance with laws. See “Description of Our Credit Facilities.”
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
      We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements or relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, such as entities often referred to as structured finance or special purpose entities, which are typically established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes.
Seasonal and Other Trends
      The volume of new and used automobiles financed or leased by our participating financing source customers, special promotions by automobile manufacturers and the level of indirect financing by captive finance companies not available in our network impact our business. We expect that our operating results in the foreseeable future may be significantly affected by these and other seasonal and promotional trends in the indirect automotive finance market. Also, we incur significant marketing expenses and anticipate higher subscription sales rates in the first quarter in connection with the NADA’s annual industry trade show. In addition, the volume of transactions in our network generally is greater on Saturdays and Mondays and, in particular, most holiday weekends.

Effects of Inflation
      Our monetary assets, consisting primarily of cash, cash equivalents and receivables, and our non-monetary assets, consisting primarily of intangible assets and goodwill, are not affected significantly by inflation. We believe that replacement costs of equipment, furniture and leasehold improvements will not materially affect our operations. However, the rate of inflation affects our expenses, which may not be readily recoverable in the prices of products and services we offer.
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Foreign Currency Exposure
      Our earnings are affected by fluctuations in the value of the U.S. dollar as compared with the Canadian dollar. We only have operations located in and provide services to customers in the U.S. and Canada. Foreign currency fluctuations have not had a material effect on our operating results or financial condition. Our exposure is mitigated, in part, by the fact that we incur certain operating costs in the same foreign currencies in which revenue is denominated. The foreign currency exposure that does exist is limited by the fact that the majority of transactions are paid according to our standard payment terms, which are generally short-term in nature.
Interest Rate Exposure
      As of June 30, 2005, we had $43.5 million of borrowings outstanding under our credit facilities. Our borrowings under our credit facilities bear interest at a variable rate equal to LIBOR plus a margin of 1.5%. Accordingly, our earnings and cash flow are affected by changes in interest rates. Assuming the borrowings outstanding remain consistent, expense for a full quarter would have been $0.5 million and assuming a 0.125 percentage point increase in the average interest rate under these borrowings, we estimate that our interest expense for a quarter would increase by approximately $15,000.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
      In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 123R, “Share-Based Payment” (SFAS No. 123R). This standard amends SFAS No. 123 and concludes that services received from employees in exchange for stock-based compensation results in a cost to the employer that must be recognized in the consolidated financial statements. The cost of such awards should be measured at fair value at the date of grant. SFAS No. 123R provides public companies with a choice of transition methods to implement the standard. We anticipate applying the modified prospective method whereby we would recognize compensation cost for the unamortized portion of unvested awards outstanding at the effective date of SFAS No. 123R (January 1, 2006 for us). Such cost will be recognized in our consolidated financial statements over the remaining vesting period. The adoption of this standard is currently expected to reduce our 2006 earnings by approximately $0.2 million, based upon outstanding options as of March 31, 2005.

BUSINESS
Overview
      We are a leading provider of on-demand software and data solutions for the automotive retail industry in the United States. We utilize the Internet to link automotive dealers with banks, finance companies, credit unions and other financing sources, and other service and information providers, such as the major credit reporting agencies. We have established a network of active relationships with over 20,000 automotive dealers, including over 80% of all franchised dealers; over 140 financing sources, including the 20 largest independent financing sources in the United States and eight captive financing sources; and a number of other service and information providers to the automotive retail industry. Our credit application processing product enables dealers to automate and accelerate the indirect automotive financing process by increasing the speed of communications between these dealers and their financing sources. We have leveraged our leading market position in credit application processing to address other inefficiencies in the automotive retail industry value chain. Our proven network of over 20,000 dealers provides a competitive advantage for distribution of our on-demand software and data solutions. Our integrated subscription-based software products and services enable our automotive dealer customers to receive valuable consumer leads, compare various financing and leasing options and programs, sell insurance and other aftermarket products, document compliance with certain laws and execute financing contracts electronically. In addition, we offer data and other products and services to various industry participants, including lease residual value and automobile configuration data.
      We began our principal business operations in February 2001 with the introduction of our credit application processing product to address inefficiencies in the automotive financing process. Since then, we have substantially increased the number of participants in our network and have introduced new products and services through our internal product development efforts as well as through acquisitions. As a result, we have increased our total addressable market by enhancing our offering of subscription products and our data and reporting capabilities, and expanding our network of relationships. We have grown, and believe we will continue to grow, our revenue significantly faster than our costs and expenses, which generates operating leverage. For example, our revenue increased $31.3 million, or 81%, to $70.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2004 from $38.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2003. Costs and expenses for the same period increased $20.4 million, or 49%, to $62.3 million from $41.9 million.
Market Opportunity
Automotive Retail Industry
      The automotive retail industry is the largest consumer retail market in the United States with total sales of approximately $714 billion in 2004, according to NADA. The U.S. automotive retail industry consists primarily of approximately 21,640 franchised dealers and approximately 50,000 independent dealers, according to NADA and CNW Marketing Research, Inc. (“CNW”), respectively. Franchised dealers sell a particular manufacturer’s new automobiles as well as used automobiles from multiple manufacturers, while independent dealers primarily purchase and sell used automobiles. In 2004, approximately 47.6 million new and used automobiles were sold retail in the United States, of which approximately 70% were sold by franchised dealers, according to CNW.
      The automotive retail industry is mature yet highly fragmented. In 2004, the 50 largest dealer groups generated less than 15% of total industry sales, with much of the remainder attributable to smaller regional and local dealerships. Increased competition and easier access to invoice prices for consumers on the Internet have negatively impacted dealer profit margins on sales of new automobiles in recent years. In 2004, dealers generated average profit margins of just 1.3% and 2.9% from new and used automobile sales, respectively, according to CNW. In response to the reduced margins available from vehicle sales, dealers have focused on the wide range of other products and services they offer, including financing and insurance (“F&I”) products. F&I is generally the largest profit center within a dealership. In addition, dealers continually seek to improve profitability by making their operations more efficient and improving consumer loyalty in order to capture a higher share of their aftermarket parts and services needs.

Automotive Retail Industry Value Chain
      The following diagram illustrates the four primary stages of the automotive retail industry value chain:
Automotive Retail Industry Value Chain
(FLOW CHART)
       
Stage   Description
     
Pre-Sales Marketing and Prospecting:
  • Dealers generate and consolidate new leads of potential automotive purchasers through various sources, including advertising in newspapers, radio, television, direct mail and the Internet.
    • In 2004, franchised dealers spent approximately $8.3 billion on advertising, of which the Internet accounted for 6.7%, up from 5.3% in 2003, according to NADA.
Sales:
  • Dealer sales personnel assist the consumer’s purchasing decision by presenting available models and purchasing options.
    • Dealers frequently utilize technology products and services to assist in the sales process and improve the percentage of prospective consumers that purchase automobiles.
Finance and Insurance:
   
 
Financing
  • Dealers assist a majority of automotive consumers in obtaining financing through various financing and leasing sources.
    • Dealers execute the contract and ancillary agreements with the consumer for any finance or lease transactions.
 
Insurance and Other Aftermarket Sales
  • Dealers sell optional insurance and other aftermarket products, such as extended vehicle service contracts, credit protection insurance and prepaid service contracts.
Parts and Service:
  • Dealers provide service and repair work and replacement parts to maintain customers’ automobiles.
      Pre-Sales Marketing and Prospecting. Traditionally, dealers had limited ability to predict which consumers were most likely to purchase an automobile. They have advertised in broad media channels, including newspapers, radio, television, direct mail and over the Internet, to attract consumers to the dealership. In 2004, franchised dealers spent $8.3 billion on advertising, according to NADA. In order to target and qualify consumers more directly and efficiently, dealers increasingly utilize lead management processes and technology products and services.
      Sales. The sales stage generally begins when a dealer identifies a prospective consumer at the dealership, over the phone or on the Internet, and ends with the sale. After a prospective consumer enters the dealership, the salesperson typically reviews the various models currently available and discusses the options available for each model. While the salesperson negotiates the basic parameters of the purchase, a sales manager typically orders a credit report on the prospective consumer. The dealer needs a “permissible purpose” in order to order a credit report. Consumers with stronger credit scores have an easier time purchasing the automobiles they are interested in and qualifying for various finance and lease options. Consumers with weaker credit scores may only be able to purchase automobiles for which they qualify for financing. For these consumers, the sales process may begin with an analysis of the amount of financing available to them.

Table of Contents

      Financing and Insurance. Automotive financing has become an important source of revenue for dealers. Approximately 70% of retail automotive consumers obtain financing to purchase an automobile, either indirectly through the dealership or directly themselves. We estimate that approximately 70–75% of these automobile financings utilize the indirect channel and the remainder utilize the direct channel (i.e., the consumer applies directly to the financing source and the financing source delivers the funds directly to the consumer). In indirect financings, the dealer submits the consumer’s credit application information to one or multiple financing sources to obtain approval for the financing. Once an acceptable approval is obtained, the dealer will typically extend the financing to the consumer itself and then resell the financing contract to the financing source on terms profitable for the dealer.
      In 2003, we believe approximately 44% of indirect automotive financings were extended by banks, credit unions and other specialty automotive finance companies not owned or controlled by automobile manufacturers, which we refer to as “independent” or “non-captive” financing sources. Some of the largest non-captive automotive financing companies, as measured by finance and lease originations, include JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A., Citizens Financial Group, Inc., Banc of America Auto Finance Corp., WFS Financial, Inc., Wells Fargo & Company and Capital One Auto Finance, Inc. and their respective affiliates. The remaining indirect automotive financings were extended by financing sources owned or controlled by automobile manufacturers, which we refer to as “captive” financing sources. The largest captive financing sources include Chrysler Financial Corporation, Ford Motor Credit Corporation, General Motors Acceptance Corporation, Nissan Motor Acceptance Corporation and Toyota Financial Services and their affiliates.
      Insurance, such as credit protection insurance and other aftermarket products, such as extended vehicle service contracts, has become an important source of revenue for automotive dealers. During the automotive sales and financing process, dealers typically offer a variety of optional insurance and other aftermarket products to consumers prior to completing the sale. While most expenses associated with the purchase and ownership of an automobile, such as finance or lease payments, are predictable and recurring, a long-term disability event or an unforeseen automobile maintenance expense can increase the consumer’s risk of defaulting under the finance contract. In order to reduce the risk of this potential default, many consumers purchase extended vehicle service contracts and/or credit protection insurance. In 2004, 34.1% of new automobile sales included an extended warranty or service contract, according to NADA.
      Parts and Service. Parts and service revenue are accounting for a growing percentage of a dealer’s profit. Automotive retailers generate parts and service revenue primarily from repair orders for parts and related labor paid directly by consumers, reimbursement from manufacturers and others under extended vehicle service contracts and pre-paid maintenance contracts. The dealer’s performance of ongoing service and maintenance is one of the strongest lead sources of future automotive sales and repeat dealership business. Many automotive dealers are focused on increasing consumer loyalty in order to capture a higher share of the profitable aftermarket revenue and to increase the likelihood of repeat business.
Inefficient Legacy Processes
      Traditionally, the workflow processes in each stage of the automotive retail value chain have been paper intensive and/or performed on stand-alone legacy systems, resulting in inefficiencies. The inefficiencies inherent in traditional workflow processes are particularly noteworthy in the F&I process. Dealers traditionally relied upon the fax and mail delivery method for processing their financing and insurance offerings. This method produced lengthy processing times and increased the cost of assisting the consumer to obtain financing or insurance. For example, legacy paper systems required the consumer to fill out a paper credit application for the financing sources to which he or she applied. The dealer then faxed the credit application to each financing source and awaited a series of return faxes. When a financing source approved the consumer’s credit application, the consumer manually signed a paper finance or lease contract with the dealer, who then delivered it with ancillary documents to the financing source via overnight courier. The financing source then manually checked the contract for any errors or omissions and if the contract and ancillary documents were accurate and complete, the financing source paid the dealer for the assignment of the contract. The cumbersome nature of this process could limit the range of options available to consumers and delay the availability of financing. In addition, dealers consulting out-of-date paper program catalogues may not have

61


Table of Contents

been aware of all of the insurance programs and other aftermarket sales opportunities available for them to offer the consumer.
      In an effort to address the inefficiencies in the traditional workflow processes, dealers have employed technology to manage their businesses. For example, dealers have made significant investments in dealership management system (“DMS”) software to streamline their back office functions, such as accounting, inventory, communications with manufacturers, parts and service, and employing customer relationship management (“CRM”) software to track consumer behavior and maintain active post-sale relationships with consumers to increase aftermarket sales and future automobile sales. However, these DMS and CRM software systems typically reside within the physical dealership and have not historically been fully integrated with each other, resulting in new inefficiencies. For example, many DMS and CRM systems require additional manual entry of consumer information and manual tracking of consumer behavior at multiple points along the retail value chain. These inefficiencies slow the sales and customer management process, as different and sometimes contradictory information is recorded on separate systems. In addition, key information about the consumer may not be provided to the salesperson on the sales floor although it may exist on one of the dealer’s systems.
Our Solution
      Our suite of integrated web-based software products and services addresses many of the existing inefficiencies in the automotive retail industry value chain. We believe our solutions deliver benefits to our dealer customers, financing source customers and other service and information providers.
Dealers
      We offer franchised and non-franchised, independent automotive dealers an integrated suite of web-based sales and finance solutions that significantly shorten financing processing times, allowing them to spend more time selling automobiles and aftermarket products. Our automated, web-based credit application processing product allows automotive dealers to originate and route their consumers’ credit application information. This product has eliminated the need to fax a paper application to each financing source to which a consumer applies. Once a consumer’s information is entered into our system, dealers can distribute the credit application data electronically to one or multiple financing sources and obtain credit decisions quickly and efficiently. Our credit application processing product integrates easily with other widely used dealer software systems, further streamlining the F&I process.
      We also offer dealers a suite of subscription products and services that complements our credit application processing product and allows them to integrate and better manage their business processes across the automotive retail industry value chain. We offer a product that provides a valuable pre-sales marketing and prospecting tool by providing a secure credit application on a dealer’s website for a consumer to enter his or her own credit information. We offer other products and services that allow the dealer to compare deal configurations from multiple financing and leasing sources on a real-time basis. We also offer a product that allows dealers and consumers to complete finance contracts electronically, which a dealer can transmit to participating financing sources for funding, further streamlining the financing process and reducing transactional costs for both dealers and financing sources. Additionally, we offer a product that allows dealers to consistently present consumers the full array of insurance and other aftermarket product options they offer. Our products and services, when used together, form a seamless sales and finance solution that easily integrates with other widely used software systems. As of March 31, 2005, an aggregate of 9,825 of our existing product subscriptions have been purchased by approximately 6,400 of the over 20,000 dealers active on our network.
Financing Sources
      Our on-demand credit application processing and electronic contracting products eliminate expensive and time-consuming inefficiencies in legacy paper systems, and thereby decrease financing sources’ costs of originating loans or leases. We believe our solutions significantly streamline the financing process and improve

62


Table of Contents

the efficiency and/or profitability of each financing transaction. We electronically transmit complete credit application and contract data, reducing costs and errors and improving efficiency for both prime and non-prime financing sources.
      We also believe that our credit application processing product enables our financing source customers to increase credit originations. Our network is configured to enable our financing source customers to connect easily with dealers with whom they can establish new business relations. We believe that financing sources that utilize our solution experience a significant competitive advantage over financing sources that rely on the legacy paper fax process.
Other Service and Information Providers
      Our web-based solutions enable third-party service and information providers to deliver their products and services more broadly and efficiently, which increases the value of our integrated solutions to our dealer customers. We offer our third-party service and information providers a secure and efficient means of delivering their data to our dealer and financing source customers. For example, the credit reporting agencies can provide dealers with consumers’ credit reports electronically and integrate the delivery of the prospective consumers’ credit reports with our credit application processing and other products. Used car value guide providers, such as NADA and Kelley Blue Book Co., Inc. (“Kelley Blue Book”), have been integrated with our web-based solutions, allowing them to develop incremental subscription revenue streams without increased publishing costs.
Our Competitive Strengths
      We believe that the following strengths provide us with competitive advantages in the marketplace:
      Leading Market Position. We currently have active relationships with over 20,000 automotive dealers, including over 80% of all franchised dealers; over 140 financing sources, including the 20 largest independent financing sources in the United States and eight captive financing sources; and a number of other service and information providers. Currently, a substantial majority of our financing source customers’ collective indirect credit application volume is processed through our network. We believe we are also the market leader in desking, electronic contracting and residual value data for the automotive finance industry. Our network of relationships combined with our market leading positions provide us with significant competitive advantages, including our ability to maximize cross-selling opportunities for our products and services to all of our customers and to expand the wide range of new participants in our network. For example, our new subsidiaries, Chrome Systems, Inc. and Automotive Lease Guide (ALG), Inc., will be better able to market and distribute their products and services through our network. We believe that customers who regularly use one of our solutions are more inclined to use one or more of our other solutions.
      Flexible Web-Based Delivery Model. We believe that our software as a service model is a superior method of delivering products and services to our customers. Our customers are able to access our highly specialized applications on-demand rather than incurring the expense and difficulty of installing and maintaining them independently. In addition, our open architecture facilitates integration with certain existing systems of our automotive dealer customers, financing sources and other service and information providers. We believe our flexible web-based delivery model enhances our customers’ operating efficiency and reduces their total operating costs.
      Broad and Integrated Suite of Solutions. Our broad range of integrated on-demand software products and services improves our customers’ operating efficiency in the pre-sales marketing and prospecting, sales and finance and insurance stages of the automotive retail industry value chain. We believe that none of our competitors currently offer a comparable suite of integrated solutions and that the breadth of our existing solutions provides us with a competitive advantage.
      Independent Network. Our web-based network is independent and does not give any one financing source preference over any other financing source. Each dealer sees its individualized list of available financing sources listed alphabetically, based on our proprietary matching process, and can transmit credit application

63


Table of Contents

information simultaneously to multiple financing sources selected by them. Financing sources’ responses to requests for financing through our network are presented back to the dealer in their order of response. We believe that this neutral approach makes our network more appealing to both automotive dealers and financing sources than captive alternatives that favor financing sources owned or controlled by one or more automobile manufacturers.
      Proven Acquisition Strategy. We have augmented the growth of our business by successfully completing strategic acquisitions. In executing our acquisition strategy, we have focused on identifying businesses that we believe will increase our market share or that have products, services and technology that are complementary to our product and service offerings. We believe that our success in completing these acquisitions and integrating them into our business has allowed us to maintain our leadership position in the industry, enhance our network of relationships and accelerate our growth.
Our Growth Strategy
      Our growth strategy is to leverage our position as a leading provider of on-demand software solutions to the U.S. automotive retail industry. Key elements of our growth strategy are:
      Sell Additional Products and Services to Our Existing Customers. We believe that we are well-positioned to increase the number of products and services purchased by our existing customers. Many of our subscription-based products and services were recently introduced to our customers, and we believe there are opportunities to increase the sales of these products and services to dealers and financing sources. We believe that a significant market opportunity exists for us to sell additional products and services to the approximately 70% of our over 20,000 active dealer customers that utilize our credit application processing product, but have not yet purchased one or more of our subscription-based products or services. Similarly, the over 140 financing sources that utilize our credit application product represent a market opportunity for us to sell our electronic contracting solution, which approximately 10% of our financing source customers have implemented to date.
      Expand Our Customer Base. We intend to increase our market penetration by expanding our automotive dealer and financing source customer base through the efforts of our direct sales force. Although we currently enjoy active relationships with over 80% of all franchised dealers, currently less than 5% of the approximately 50,000 independent dealerships in the United States are active in our network. We believe that we are well positioned to increase the number of these active dealer relationships. While we currently have over 140 active financing source customers, we will focus on adding the captive financing affiliates of foreign automotive manufacturers, as well as select regional banks, financing companies and other financing sources to our network. We also intend to increase the number of other service and information providers in our network by adding, among others, insurance and other aftermarket service providers.
      Expand Our Product and Service Offerings. We expect to expand our suite of products and services to address the evolving needs of our customers. We have identified a number of opportunities to leverage our network of relationships and our core competencies to benefit dealers, financing sources and other service and information providers. For example, we believe there are opportunities to generate additional revenue from insurance and other aftermarket providers by allowing their products and services to be accessed and offered in our network. We also see opportunities to generate additional revenue by aggregating automotive industry information we have collected and offering reporting of the aggregated information to dealers, financing sources and other industry participants.
      Pursue Acquisitions and Strategic Alliances. We intend to continue to grow and advance our business through acquisitions and strategic alliances. We believe that acquisitions and strategic alliances will allow us to enhance our product and service offerings, sell new products using our network, improve our technology and/or increase our market share.
Products and Services
      We offer a broad suite of integrated solutions for the U.S. automotive retail industry. We typically charge for our products and services on either a transaction and/or subscription basis as indicated below.

Our captive financing source customers are Hyundai Motor Finance Company, Infiniti Financial Services, Kia Motors Finance, Nissan Motor Acceptance Corporation, Mitsubishi Motors Credit of America, Inc., Subaru of America, Inc, Southeast Toyota Finance and Suzuki Financial Services. As of May 31, 2005, we had over 20,000 automotive dealers actively using our network, including over 80% of the franchised dealers in the United States. Our top dealer group customers in fiscal year 2004 included AutoNation Inc., United Auto Group Inc., Sonic Automotive Inc., Van Tuyl Inc. and Group 1 Automotive Inc. The subscription agreements with our dealers typically run for one to three years, with one year automatic extensions. Our initial product subscription agreements with our financing source customers typically run for two to three years with one year automatic extensions.

Competition
      The market for sales and finance solutions in the U.S. automotive retail industry is highly competitive, fragmented and subject to changing technology, shifting customer needs and frequent introductions of new products and services. Our current principal competitors include:
  •  web-based automotive finance credit application processors, including CUDL and RouteOne;
 
  •  proprietary finance credit application processing systems, including those used and provided to dealers by American Honda Finance Corp. and Volkswagen Credit;
 
  •  dealer management system providers, including ADP, Inc. and The Reynolds and Reynolds Company;
 
  •  automotive retail sales desking providers, including ADP, Inc. and Market Scan Information Systems, Inc.; and
 
  •  vehicle configuration providers, including Autodata Solutions Company, Automotive Information Center and JATO Dynamics, Inc.
      We also compete with warranty and insurance providers, as well as software providers, among others, in the market for menu-selling products and services. We believe that we compete favorably with our competitors on the basis of our extensive network of relationships, our on-demand delivery platform, our distribution capability and our broad and integrated suite of products and services. We also believe that our neutral approach makes our network more appealing to both automotive dealers and financing sources than captive alternatives that favor financing sources owned or controlled by one or more automobile manufacturers. However, some of our competitors may be able to devote greater resources to the development, promotion and sale of their products and services than we can to ours, which could allow them to respond more quickly than we can to new technologies and changes in customer needs. In particular, RouteOne, a joint venture formed and controlled by Chrysler Financial Corporation, Ford Motor Credit Corporation, General Motors Acceptance Corporation and Toyota Financial Services, enjoys relationships with these and other affiliated captive financing sources, which are not part of our network. Our ability to remain competitive will depend to a great extent upon our ongoing performance in the areas of product development and customer support.
Technology
      Our technology platform is robust, flexible and extendable and is designed to be integrated with a variety of other technology platforms. We believe our open architecture is fully scaleable and designed for high availability, reliability and security. Product development expense for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2003 and 2004 was $2.1 million, $1.5 million and $2.3 million, respectively. Product development expense for the three months ended March 31, 2005 was $0.8 million. Our technology includes the following primary components:
Web-Based Interface
      Dealer and financing source customers access our on-demand application products and services through an easy-to-use web-based interface. Our web-based delivery method gives us control over our applications and permits us to make modifications at a single central location. We can easily add new functions and deliver new products to our customers by centrally updating our software on a regular basis, without adding new architecture.
Partner Integration
      We believe that our on-demand model is a uniquely suited method of delivering our products and services to our customers. Our customers can access our highly specialized applications on-demand, avoiding the expense and difficulty of installing and maintaining them independently. Our financing source integration and partner integration use XML encoded messages. We are a member of both STAR (Standards for Technology

69


Table of Contents

in Automotive Retail) and AFSA (American Financial Services Association) and are committed to supporting published standards as they evolve.
Infrastructure
      Our technology infrastructure is hosted externally and consists of a production site and a disaster recovery site. We believe that the production site is fully redundant with no single point of major failure. Our customers depend on the availability and reliability of our products and services and we employ system redundancy in order to minimize system downtime.
Security
      We maintain high security standards with a layered firewall environment. Our communications are secured using secure socket layer 128-bit encryption. We employ an intrusion detection system operating both externally to our website (outside the firewall), as well as internally. Our firewalls and intrusion detection system are both managed and monitored continuously by an independent security management company. We also utilize a commercial software solution to securely manage user access to all of our applications. All incoming traffic must be authenticated before it is authorized to be passed on to the application. Once a user has been authorized, access control to specific functions within the site is performed by the application. Our access control system is highly granular and includes the granting and revocation of user permissions to functions on the site.
      We maintain a certification from TruSecure Corporation, a leading industry security certification body. This certification program entails a comprehensive evaluation of our security program, including extensive testing of our website’s perimeter defenses. As a result of this process, recommendations are made and implemented. The certification program requires continual monitoring and adherence to critical security policies and practices.
Government Regulation
      The indirect automotive financing and automotive retail industries are subject to extensive and complex federal and state regulation. Our customers, such as banks, finance companies, savings associations, credit unions and other financing sources, and automotive dealers, operate in markets that are subject to rigorous regulatory oversight and supervision. Our customers must ensure that our products and services work within the extensive and evolving regulatory requirements applicable to them, including those under the Truth in Lending Act, the GLB Act and Regulation P and the Federal Trade Commission’s (“FTC”) Safeguards Rule, the Equal Credit Opportunity Act, the regulations of the Federal Reserve Board, the FCRA, and other state and local laws and regulations. In addition, entities such as the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, the Office of Thrift Supervision, the National Credit Union Administration and the FTC have the authority to promulgate rules and regulations that may impact our customers, which could place additional demands on us.
      The role of our products and services in assisting our customers’ compliance with these requirements depends on a variety of factors, including the particular functionality, the interactive design, and the classification of the customer. We are not a party to the actual financing and lease transactions that occur in our network. Our financing source and automotive dealer customers must assess and determine what is required of them under applicable laws and regulations and are responsible for ensuring that our network conforms to their regulatory needs. We generally do not make representations to customers regarding their applicable regulatory requirements, and rely on each of our customers to identify its regulatory issues and respond appropriately.
      Consumer Privacy and Data Security Laws. Consumer privacy and data security laws on the federal and state levels govern the privacy of consumer information generally and may apply to our business in our capacity as a service provider for regulated financial institutions and automotive dealers that are subject to the FTC’s Privacy of Consumer Financial Information Regulations and Safeguards Rule.

70


Table of Contents

      These laws and regulations restrict our customers’ ability to share nonpublic personal consumer information with non-affiliated companies, as well as with affiliates under certain circumstances. They also require certain standards for information security plans and operations, including standards for consumer information protection and disposal. If a financing source or dealer discloses consumer information provided through our network in violation of these laws, regulations or applicable privacy policies, we may be subject to claims from such consumers or enforcement actions by state or federal regulatory authorities.
      Legislation is pending on the federal level and in most states that could impose additional duties on us relating to the collection, use or disclosure of consumer information, as well as obligations to secure that information or provide notices in the event of an actual or suspected unauthorized access to or use of information contained within our system. The FTC and federal banking regulators have also issued regulations requiring regulated financial institutions to obtain certain assurances and contractual protections relating to the security and disposal of information maintained by service providers such as us.
      While we believe our current business model is consistent with existing laws and regulations, emerging case law and regulatory enforcement initiatives, as well as the passage of new laws and regulations, may limit our ability to use information to develop additional revenue streams in the future.
      Fair Credit Reporting Act. The FCRA imposes limitations on the collection, distribution and use of consumer report information and imposes various requirements on providers and users of consumer reports and any information contained in such reports. Among other things, the FCRA limits the use and transfer of information that would otherwise be deemed a consumer report under the FCRA, and imposes certain requirements on providers of information to credit reporting agencies and resellers of consumer reports with respect to ensuring the accuracy and completeness of the information and assisting consumers who dispute information on their consumer reports or seek to obtain information involving theft of their identity. The use of such information in violation of the FCRA could, among other things, result in a provider of information or reseller of consumer reports being deemed a consumer reporting agency, which would subject the provider or reseller to all of the compliance requirements applicable to consumer reporting agencies contained in the FCRA. While we believe we have structured our business so that we will not be considered to be a consumer reporting agency, we may in the future determine that it is necessary for us to become a consumer reporting agency due to changing legal standards, customer needs, or for competitive reasons. If we are deemed to be, or elect to treat ourselves as, a consumer reporting agency, our operating costs would increase, which could adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
      State Laws and Regulations. The GLB Act and the FCRA contain provisions that preempt some state laws to the extent the state laws seek to regulate the distribution and use of consumer information. The GLB Act does not limit states’ rights to enact privacy legislation that provides greater protections to consumers than those provided by the GLB Act. The FCRA generally prohibits states from imposing any requirements with respect only to certain specified matters and it is possible that some state legislatures or agencies may limit the ability of businesses to disclose consumer information beyond the limitations provided for in the GLB Act or the FCRA.
      Revised Uniform Commercial Code Section 9-105, E-SIGN and UETA. In the U.S., the enforceability of electronic transactions is primarily governed by E-SIGN, a federal law enacted in 2000 that largely preempts inconsistent state law, and the UETA, a uniform state law that was finalized by the NCCUSL in 1999 and has been adopted by most states. Case law has generally upheld the use of electronic signatures in commercial transactions and in consumer transactions where proper notice is provided and consumer consent to electronic contracting is obtained. The Revised Uniform Commercial Code Section 9-105 seeks to implement a regime to perfect security interests in electronic chattel paper. These laws impact the degree to which the financing sources in our network use our eContracting product. We believe that our eContracting product enables the perfection of a security interest in electronic chattel paper by meeting the transfer of “control” requirements of UCC 9-105. However, this issue has not been challenged in any legal proceeding. If a court were to find that our electronic contracting product is not sufficient to perfect a security interest in electronic chattel paper, or if existing laws were to change, our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.

      Internet Regulation. We are subject to federal, state and local laws applicable to companies conducting business on the Internet. Today, there are relatively few laws specifically directed towards online services. However, due to the increasing popularity and use of the Internet and online services, laws and regulations may be adopted with respect to the Internet or online services covering issues such as online contracts, user privacy, freedom of expression, pricing, fraud liability, content and quality of products and services, taxation, advertising, intellectual property rights and information security. Proposals currently under consideration with respect to Internet regulation by federal, state, local and foreign governmental organizations include, but are not limited to, the following matters: on-line content, user privacy, restrictions on email communications, data security requirements, taxation, access charges, liability for third-party activities such as unauthorized database access, and jurisdiction. Moreover, we do not know how existing laws relating to these issues will be applied to the Internet and whether federal preemption of state laws will apply.
Intellectual Property
      Our success depends, in large part, on our intellectual property and other proprietary rights. We rely on a combination of patent, copyright, trademark and trade secret laws, employee and third-party non-disclosure agreements and other methods to protect our intellectual property and other proprietary rights. In addition, we license technology from third parties.
      We have been issued three United States utility patents and have patent applications pending in the United States, Canada and Europe. Two of the utility patents relate, among other things, to a system and method for credit application processing and routing. We have both registered and unregistered copyrights on aspects of our technology. We have a U.S. federal registration for the mark “Dealer Track”. We also have U.S. federal registrations and pending registrations for several additional marks we use and claim common law rights in other marks we use. We also have filed some of these marks in foreign jurisdictions. The duration of our various trademark registrations varies by mark and jurisdiction of registration. In addition, we rely, in some circumstances, on trade secrets law to protect our technology, in part by requiring confidentiality agreements from our corporate partners, employees, consultants, advisors and others.
      In addition to our efforts to register our intellectual property, we believe that factors such as the technological and creative skills of our personnel, new service developments, frequent enhancements and reliability with respect to our services are essential to establishing and maintaining a technology and market leadership position.
Facilities
      Our headquarters are located in Lake Success, New York, where we lease approximately 40,000 square feet of office space. Our principal properties, all of which are leased, are described below:

Employees
      As of May 31, 2005, we had a total of 499 employees. None of our employees is represented by a labor union. We have not experienced any work stoppages and believe that our relations with our employees are good.
Legal Proceedings
      From time to time, we are a party to litigation matters arising in connection with the normal course of our business, none of which is expected to have a material adverse effect on us. In addition to the litigation matters arising in connection with the normal course of our business, we are party to the litigation described below.
      On January 28, 2004, we filed suit against RouteOne in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York. Our complaint seeks declaratory and injunctive relief, as well as damages, against RouteOne for infringement of two patents owned by DealerTrack, Inc. which relate to a system and method for credit application processing and routing. Our complaint also seeks relief for RouteOne’s acts of copyright infringement, circumvention of technological measures and common law fraud and unfair competition. Fact discovery is substantially completed and expert discovery is beginning.

Board of Directors
      Our fourth amended and restated certificate of incorporation authorizes a board of directors consisting of at least three, but no more than eleven members. Currently, we have seven members on our board of directors, and upon completion of this offering, we expect our board of directors will consist of seven members, a majority of whom will be independent as defined under NASDAQ Marketplace Rule 4200(a)(15).
      We expect to elect one more additional independent director, prior to the completion of this offering, who will also serve on the audit committee. Mr. Berce, who was elected to our board pursuant to a provision in our stockholders’ agreement, has agreed to resign from the board immediately prior to the completion of this offering. Our stockholders’ agreement will automatically terminate immediately prior to the completion of this offering.
      In accordance with the terms of our fifth amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated by-laws, which will become effective upon completion of this offering, our board of directors will be divided into three classes equal in size to the extent possible (class I, class II and class III), with each class serving staggered three-year terms. Upon the completion of this offering, the members of our board will be divided into these three classes as follows:
  •  the class I directors will be Messrs. Power and Tischler, and their terms will expire at the annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 2006;
 
  •  the class II directors will be Mr. Dietz and the director we expect to elect prior to the completion of this offering, and their terms will expire at the annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 2007; and
 
  •  the class III directors will be Ms. Cirillo-Goldberg and Messrs. Gibson and O’Neil, and their terms will expire at the annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 2008.
      Our fifth amended and restated certificate of incorporation will also provide that the authorized number of directors is as set out in the by-laws, which may be changed by resolution of our board of directors or

76


Table of Contents

stockholders who hold 75% of the voting power of our outstanding capital stock. The affirmative vote of the holders of 75% or more of our voting stock will be required to remove a director for cause. Any additional directorships resulting from an increase in the number of directors will be distributed between the three classes so that, as nearly as possible, each class will consist of one-third of the directors. This classification of the board of directors and the limitations on the removal of our directors may have the effect of delaying or preventing changes in the control of us or our management.
      Each executive officer is elected or appointed by, and serves at the discretion of, the board of directors. Each of our executive officers and directors, other than non-employee directors, devotes his or her full time to our affairs. There are no family relationships among any of our directors or executive officers.
Board Committees
      Our board of directors has established an audit committee, a compensation committee and a nominating and corporate governance committee. The members of each committee are appointed by the board of directors and serve one-year terms.
      Audit Committee. We have an audit committee consisting of Messrs. Dietz and Gibson, and, when elected, the independent director we expect to elect prior to the completion of this offering. Mr. Dietz chairs the committee. The board of directors has determined that each member of the audit committee is independent and that Mr. Dietz is an audit committee financial expert, as defined by SEC rules, and has financial sophistication, in accordance with the applicable NASDAQ listing standards.
      The audit committee assists our board of directors in its oversight and evaluation of:
  •  the integrity of our financial statements;
 
  •  the independent registered public accounting firm’s qualifications and independence; and
 
  •  the performance of our independent registered public accounting firm.
      The audit committee has the sole and direct responsibility for appointing, evaluating and retaining our independent registered public accounting firm and for overseeing their work. All audit and non-audit services, other than de minimis non-audit services, to be provided to us by our independent registered public accounting firm must be approved in advance by our audit committee.
      Compensation Committee. We have a compensation committee consisting of Ms. Cirillo-Goldberg and Messrs. Gibson and Power. Ms. Cirillo-Goldberg chairs the committee. The purpose of our compensation committee is to discharge the responsibilities of our board of directors relating to compensation of our executive officers. Specific responsibilities of our compensation committee include:
  •  reviewing and recommending approval of compensation of our executive officers;
 
  •  administering our stock incentive and employee stock purchase plans; and
 
  •  reviewing and making recommendations to our board of directors with respect to incentive compensation and equity plans.
      The board of directors has determined that each member of the compensation committee is independent in accordance with the applicable NASDAQ listing standards.
      Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. We have a nominating and corporate governance committee consisting of Ms. Cirillo-Goldberg and Mr. Power. Ms. Cirillo-Goldberg chairs the committee. The purpose of the nominating and corporate governance committee is to:

      All decisions regarding the base salaries of our executive officers for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004 were made by our board of directors after recommendation by our compensation committee, which at the time consisted of Michael R. Barrington, Steven J. Dietz and David R. Lawson. All decisions regarding the bonuses of our executive officers for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004 were made by our board of directors after recommendation by our compensation committee, which at the time consisted of Daniel E. Berce, Steven J. Dietz and David R. Lawson. All of these compensation committee members were subsequently replaced by Ms. Cirillo-Goldberg and Messrs. Gibson and Power. Mr. Lawson resigned from the board of directors on May 26, 2005. Mr. Dietz is currently chair of the audit committee.
      None of our executive officers serves, or during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004 served, as a member of the compensation committee, or other committee serving an equivalent function. None of the current or former members of our compensation committee has ever been an employee of DealerTrack.
Director Compensation
      We reimburse our non-employee directors for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in attending meetings of the board of directors or any committee of the board of directors. During the year ended December 31, 2004, our non-employee directors did not receive separate compensation for services rendered as directors. Effective July 1, 2005, each of our non-employee directors, other than Mr. Berce, will receive an annual retainer fee of $25,000, an additional $10,000 if they chair the audit committee and an additional $5,000 if they chair the compensation committee. Directors, other than Mr. Berce, will receive a fee of $2,000 for each board meeting attended, with a cap of $8,000 for the year ending December 31, 2005. Directors, other than Mr. Berce, will receive a fee of $2,000 for each committee meeting attended, with the audit and compensation committee chairs receiving $2,500 for each committee meeting attended. For the year ending December 31, 2005, the fees for attending committee meetings are capped at $16,000 for audit committee meetings, $15,000 for compensation committee meetings and $4,000 for nominating and corporate governance committee meetings. Directors, other than Mr. Berce, will receive a $1,000 fee for each meeting they participate in telephonically. No director who also serves as an employee receives separate compensation for services rendered as a director. Upon completion of this offering, we will have six non-employee directors on our board of directors: Messrs. Dietz, Power, Tischler and Gibson, Ms. Cirillo-Goldberg and a director we expect to elect prior to completion of this offering. Ms. Cirillo-Goldberg will serve as our lead independent director.
      We have granted the following stock options under our 2001 Stock Option Plan and our 2005 Incentive Award Plan to the following non-employee directors as of May 31, 2005:
             
Name of Director   Number of Shares   Date of Grant

      During the year ended December 31, 2004, we did not grant any stock options to the non-employee members of our board of directors. Each of our non-employee directors, other than Mr. Berce, was granted 3,500 shares of restricted common stock on May 26, 2005 except for Mr. Gibson who was granted 3,500 shares of restricted common stock on June 29, 2005. The vesting commencement date for this restricted common stock is July 1, 2005 and this restricted common stock will vest in three equal annual installments.

      In May 2005, our board of directors adopted, and our stockholders approved, our 2005 Incentive Award Plan, which permits our board of directors to grant equity awards to our non-employee directors. Pursuant to the 2005 Incentive Award Plan, our board of directors has adopted a resolution providing that each non-employee director will automatically receive an option to purchase 30,000 shares of our common stock upon his or her appointment to our board of directors. These options will vest in three equal installments commencing on the first anniversary of the date of grant, subject to the non-employee director’s continued service as a director. Subject to an annual evaluation, which evaluation shall be overseen by our nominating and corporate governance committee, each non-employee director will automatically receive an annual grant of 3,500 shares of restricted common stock at each year’s annual meeting after which he or she will continue to serve as a director. The restricted common stock will vest in three equal annual installments commencing on the first anniversary of the grant date, subject to the non-employee director’s continued service as a director. Each non-employee director stock option will terminate on the earlier of ten years from the date of grant and three months after the recipient ceases to serve as a director, except in the case of death or disability, in which event the option will terminate one year from the date of the director’s death or disability. The exercise price of all of these options will equal the fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant. The formula-based option and restricted stock awards for non-employee directors will remain in effect unless and until our board of directors adopts a subsequent resolution that amends or terminates such formula.
      In May 2005, our board of directors adopted our Directors’ Deferred Compensation Plan. The Directors’ Deferred Compensation Plan is a non-qualified retirement plan. The Directors’ Deferred Compensation Plan allows our non-employee directors to elect to defer certain of the fees they would otherwise be entitled to receive for services rendered as directors. Amounts deferred under the Directors’ Deferred Compensation Plan are general liabilities of DealerTrack and are represented by bookkeeping accounts maintained on behalf of the participants. Such accounts are deemed to be invested in share units that track the value of our common stock. Distributions will generally be made to a participant either following the end of the participant’s service on our board, following a change of control if so elected, or over a fixed period of time elected by the participant prior to the deferral. Distributions will generally be made in the form of shares of our common stock. Our Directors’ Deferred Compensation Plan is intended to comply with Section 409A of the Code.
      Mr. O’Neil did not receive any compensation during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004 for services rendered as a director. Mr. O’Neil’s compensation for service as our President and Chief Executive Officer is described in “Executive Compensation.”
      The non-employee directors are also covered by the Stock Ownership and Retention Plan, which is described in more detail below.

Option Grants in Last Fiscal Year
      The following table contains information regarding grants of options to purchase shares of our common stock pursuant to our 2001 Stock Option Plan to our named executive officers during the year ended December 31, 2004. The potential realizable value set forth in the last column of the table is calculated based on the term of the option at the time of grant, which is ten years. This value is based on assumed rates of stock price appreciation of 5% and 10% compounded annually from the date of grant until their expiration date, assuming a fair market value equal to an assumed initial public offering price of $          , minus the applicable exercise price. These numbers are calculated based on the requirements of the SEC and do not reflect our estimate of future stock price growth. Actual gains, if any, on stock option exercises will depend on the future price of the common stock on the date on which the options are exercised.

(2)  The exercise price per share was determined to be equal to the fair market value per share of our common stock as valued by our board of directors on the date of grant.
 
(3)  Amounts represent hypothetical gains that could be achieved for stock options if exercised at the end of the option term. These gains are based on assumed rates of stock price appreciation of 5% and 10% compounded annually from the date stock options are granted. Actual gains, if any, on stock option exercises will depend on the future performance of our common stock on the date on which the stock options are exercised.
Aggregated Option Exercises in Last Fiscal Year and Fiscal Year-End Option Values
      The following table sets forth information for each of the named executive officers regarding the number of shares subject to both exercisable and unexercisable stock options, as well as the value of unexercised in-the-money options, as of December 31, 2004. There was no public trading market for our common stock as of December 31, 2004. Accordingly, we have calculated the value of the unexercised in-the-money options at fiscal year-end on the basis of an assumed fair market value of our common stock as of December 31, 2004 equal to the assumed initial public offering price of $           per share, less the aggregate exercise price.

Share numbers are based on exercisability as of December 31, 2004.
Employment Agreements
      Each of our named executive officers has entered into a written employment agreement with us that governs the terms and conditions of his employment. With respect to the named executive officers, each employment agreement provides:
  •  The initial term of employment is through June 30, 2007, and will automatically be extended for additional one-year periods unless either party notifies the other of non-extension at least 60 days prior to the end of a term.
 
  •  The minimum annual base salary for each of the named executive officers is as follows:
         
Mark F. O’Neil

Charles J. Giglia
  $ 250,000  
Eric D. Jacobs
  $ 250,000  
Vincent Passione
  $ 370,000  
  •  Each named executive officer is eligible to receive an annual performance-based cash bonus. Each year, the amount of such bonus, if any, is determined based upon our performance relative to certain performance benchmark targets.
 
  •  Each named executive officer is prohibited from competing with us or soliciting our employees or customers during the term of his employment and for a period of two years thereafter.
 
  •  In the event that a named executive officer’s employment is terminated by us without “cause” or by the executive for “good reason,” the named executive officer will be entitled to continue to participate in our health and welfare benefit plans for a period of one year following termination and to continue to be paid his base salary for a period of two years following termination. Additionally, the named executive officer shall be entitled to receive a pro rata annual bonus based on the percentage of the year worked through the date of termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event will any named executive officer be entitled to receive any such payment or benefits after he or she violates any non-compete or other restrictive covenant.
 
  •  In the event that a named executive officer’s employment is terminated by us without “cause” or by the executive for “good reason,” the named executive officer shall be credited with twenty-four months

  of accelerated vesting with respect to any options or other equity-based awards granted under the 2001 Stock Option Plan or 2005 Incentive Award Plan. Upon a change of control, the named executive officer shall automatically be credited with thirty-six months of accelerated vesting with respect to any options or other equity-based awards granted under the 2001 Stock Option Plan or 2005 Incentive Award Plan. Further, in the event that, within twelve months following a change of control, a named executive officer’s employment is terminated, he experiences a material negative change in his compensation or responsibilities or he is required to be based at a location more than 50 miles from his current work location, any remaining unvested options or other equity-based awards granted under the 2001 Stock Option Plan or 2005 Incentive Award Plan shall become fully vested.

Stock Plans
2001 Stock Option Plan
      Our 2001 Stock Option Plan was adopted by our board of directors and approved by our stockholders on August 10, 2001, and amended by our board of directors on December 28, 2001, January 30, 2003 and January 30, 2004. A maximum of 3,300,000 options to purchase shares of common stock were originally authorized for issuance pursuant to the plan, and 2,178,950 options were outstanding as of May 31, 2005. As of May 26, 2005, our 2005 Incentive Award Plan replaced our 2001 Stock Option Plan, and no more options will be granted under our 2001 Stock Option Plan. No outstanding option granted under the 2001 Stock Option Plan shall be exercisable during the 180-day period immediately following the date of this prospectus. The purpose of the 2001 Stock Option Plan has been to further our growth and success by enabling our directors, officers, employees, advisors, and independent consultants or independent contractors to acquire shares of our common stock, thereby increasing their personal interest in our growth and success, and to provide a means of rewarding outstanding performance by such persons to us. All options granted under the 2001 Stock Option Plan have been non-qualified stock options (“NSOs”).
      Administration. The board of directors or the compensation committee of the board of directors may administer the grant of stock options and, subject to the provisions of the 2001 Stock Option Plan, determine the terms and conditions of each award. Each option granted under the 2001 Stock Option Plan is evidenced by a written option agreement.
      Expiration of Stock Options. Unless otherwise specified in the applicable option or employment agreement, all options granted under the 2001 Stock Option Plan shall terminate upon the first to occur of (i) the 10-year anniversary of the date on which the option is granted, (ii) the three-month anniversary of the date on which the option holder ceases to be a director, officer, employee, advisor, independent consultant or independent contractor to DealerTrack or one of its subsidiaries (a “Termination Event”), unless the Termination Event is a result of death or disability, or “for cause” (as defined in the 2001 Stock Option Plan), (iii) the 12-month anniversary of a Termination Event, if the Termination Event is due to the option holder’s death or disability, (iv) the date of a Termination Event, if the Termination Event is “for cause”, (v) on the effective date of a dissolution, winding-up or liquidation of DealerTrack, a reorganization, merger or consolidation in which DealerTrack is not the surviving corporation, or a sale of all or substantially all of the capital stock or assets of DealerTrack to another person or entity unless such change of control involves the assumption by another entity of outstanding options or the substitution for such options of new options, as described below, (vi) the date on which the option is assigned or transferred, unless such assignment or transfer is permitted by the 2001 Stock Option Plan, and (vii) the expiration of the option exercise period or the occurrence of an event, each as specified in the applicable option or employment agreement.
      Assignability. No option granted under the 2001 Stock Option Plan is assignable or otherwise transferable by the option holder, except back to DealerTrack or by will, the laws of descent and distribution or by gift, or if the option holder becomes disabled.
      Stock Option Exercise Price. The exercise price at which each share of common stock subject to an option granted under the 2001 Stock Option Plan may be purchased is determined at the time the option is granted; provided, however, that such price will in no event be less than 85% (or 110%, with respect to options granted to 10% stockholders of DealerTrack) of the fair market value on the date of grant of such common

stock. The form of payment for the shares of common stock under the 2001 Stock Option Plan is determined by the board of directors and set forth in the applicable option agreement. In addition, the options granted to certain of our employees have accelerated vesting provisions.
      Change of Control. In connection with a change of control, each holder of an option outstanding at such time will be given (i) written notice of such transaction at least 20 days prior to its proposed effective date (as specified in such notice) and (ii) an opportunity, during the period commencing with delivery of such notice and ending 10 days prior to such proposed effective date, to exercise the option to the full extent to which such option would have been exercisable by the option holder at the expiration of such 20-day period. The foregoing provisions are not applicable in connection with a transaction involving the assumption of outstanding options by, or the substitution for such options of new options covering the stock of, the surviving, successor or purchasing entity, or a parent corporation or subsidiary corporation of those entities (as defined in Sections 424(e) and (f), respectively of the Code), with appropriate adjustments as to the number, kind and option prices of the stock subject to such options.
      Amendment and Termination. Except with respect to options then outstanding, the 2001 Stock Option Plan expires on the first to occur of (i) August 10, 2011 and (ii) the date as of which the board of directors, in its sole discretion, determines that the 2001 Stock Option Plan will terminate. The board has the authority to amend, suspend or terminate the 2001 Stock Option Plan, subject to stockholder approval of certain amendments.
2005 Incentive Award Plan
      In May 2005, our board of directors adopted, and our stockholders approved, our 2005 Incentive Award Plan. The principal purpose of the 2005 Incentive Award Plan is to attract, retain and motivate selected employees, consultants and directors through the granting of stock-based compensation awards. The 2005 Incentive Award Plan provides for a variety of such awards, including NSOs, incentive stock options (“ISOs”) (within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code), stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards, restricted stock unit awards, deferred stock awards, dividend equivalents, performance share awards, performance-based awards, stock payment awards, or other stock-based awards. 3,100,000 shares of common stock are reserved for issuance under the 2005 Incentive Award Plan, as well as shares of common stock that remain available for future option grants under our 2001 Stock Option Plan, which totaled 79,800 on May 31, 2005 and any shares underlying any existing grants under our 2001 Stock Option Plan that are forfeited. 1,000,850 options were outstanding as of May 31, 2005. The maximum number of shares which may be subject to awards granted under the 2005 Incentive Award Plan to any individual in any fiscal year is 750,000.
      Administration. The 2005 Incentive Award Plan is administered by our board of directors, unless and until the board delegates administration to the compensation committee or other applicable committee of the board. Upon the completion of this offering, the 2005 Incentive Award Plan will be administered by a compensation committee. The compensation committee may delegate administration to one or more members of the board of directors. The board of directors, or the compensation committee when so empowered, has the power to interpret the 2005 Incentive Award Plan and to adopt such rules for the administration, interpretation and application of the 2005 Incentive Award Plan according to its terms. The board of directors or the compensation committee may also delegate to one or more of our officers the power to designate which of our non-officer employees shall receive stock awards, and the number of shares of common stock that will be subject to each award, subject to a maximum aggregate number of shares specified by the board of directors or the compensation committee at the time the delegation to the officers is made. However, the board of directors may not delegate to the compensation committee or otherwise, the power to grant stock awards to independent directors.

Table of Contents

      Grant of Awards. Certain employees, consultants and directors are eligible to be granted awards under the 2005 Incentive Award Plan. The board of directors, or the compensation committee when so empowered, determines:
  •  which employees, consultants, and directors are to be granted awards;
 
  •  the type of award that is granted;
 
  •  the number of shares subject to the awards; and
 
  •  terms and conditions of such award, consistent with the 2005 Incentive Award Plan. The board of directors, or the compensation committee when so empowered, has the discretion, subject to the limitations of the 2005 Incentive Award Plan and applicable laws, to grant ISOs, NSOs, stock bonuses and rights to acquire restricted stock (except that only our employees may be granted ISOs).
      Limitation on ISO Treatment. Even if an option is designated as an ISO, no option will qualify as an ISO if the aggregate fair market value of the stock (as determined as of the date of grant) with respect to all of a holder’s ISOs exercisable for the first time during any calendar year under the 2005 Incentive Award Plan exceeds $100,000. Any option failing to qualify as an ISO will be deemed to be an NSO.
      Stock Option Exercise Price. The exercise price at which each share of common stock subject to an option granted under the 2005 Incentive Award Plan is determined at the time the option is granted, subject to the following rules:
  •  in the case of ISOs and NSOs, the per share option exercise price shall not be less than 100% of the fair market value of shares of our common stock on the grant date; and
 
  •  for any persons owning (within the meaning of Section 424(d) of the Code) more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of our capital stock or of any of our subsidiaries, the per share exercise price shall be not less than 110% of the fair market value of the shares of our common stock on the grant date. The fair market value of a share of our common stock as of a given date will be determined in good faith by the board of directors or compensation committee when so empowered.
      Expiration of Stock Options. The term of an option is set by the board of directors, or the compensation committee when so empowered, subject to the following conditions: (1) no option term shall be longer than ten years from the date of grant; and (2) the option term for an ISO granted to a person owning more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of our capital stock shall not exceed five years from the date of grant. Upon termination of an outstanding option holder’s services with us, the holder may exercise his or her options within the period of time specified in the option grant, to the extent that the options were vested at the time of termination. Options granted under the 2005 Incentive Award Plan must be exercised within one year if the holder’s services are terminated due to death or disability, or by the date of expiration of the option as set forth in the option or employment agreement, whichever is earlier.
      Other Equity Awards. In addition to stock options, the board of directors, or compensation committee, when so empowered, may also grant to certain employees, consultants and directors stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards, restricted stock unit awards, deferred stock awards, dividend equivalents, performance share awards, performance-based awards, stock payment awards, or other stock-based awards, with such terms and conditions as the board of directors (or, if applicable, the compensation committee) may, subject to the terms of the 2005 Incentive Award Plan, establish. Under the 2005 Incentive Award Plan, performance-based stock awards are intended to comply with the requirements of Section 162(m) of the Code and its underlying regulations, in order to allow these awards, when payable, to be fully tax deductible by us.
      Adjustments of Awards. If the compensation committee determines that a stock dividend, stock split, combination, merger, consolidation, spin-off, recapitalization or other change in our capitalization affects our common stock in a manner that causes dilution or enlargement of benefits or potential benefits under the 2005

Incentive Award Plan, then the board of directors or compensation committee, as applicable, may appropriately and equitably adjust:
  •  the aggregate number of, and kind of, shares of our common stock subject to the 2005 Incentive Award Plan;
 
  •  the number of, and kind of, shares of our common stock subject to the outstanding awards;
 
  •  the price per share of our common stock upon exercise of outstanding options; and
 
  •  the terms and conditions of any outstanding awards, including the financial or other performance targets specified in each option agreement for determining the exercisability of options.
      Change in Control. In connection with any change in control (as defined in the 2005 Incentive Award Plan), except as may otherwise be provided in any applicable award or employment agreement, unless awards granted pursuant to the 2005 Incentive Award Plan are converted, assumed or replaced by the successor entity, the awards will automatically become fully vested and exercisable and all forfeiture restrictions with respect to such awards shall lapse prior to the consummation of the change in control. In addition, with respect to any awards, in connection with any change in control (or other unusual or nonrecurring transaction affecting us or our consolidated financial statements), the board of directors or compensation committee, as applicable, in its sole discretion, may:
  •  provide for the termination of any award in exchange for an amount of cash, if any, equal to the amount that would have been attained upon the exercise of such award or realization of the participant’s rights as of the date of such change in control or other transaction;
 
  •  purchase any outstanding awards for a cash amount or replace outstanding awards with other rights or property;
 
  •  provide that after the occurrence of the transaction, the award cannot vest, be exercised or become payable;
 
  •  provide that only for a specified period of time after such transaction, an award shall be exercisable or payable or fully vested with respect to all shares covered thereby, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the 2005 Incentive Award Plan or the applicable award agreement; or
 
  •  provide that each outstanding option shall be assumed or substituted for an equivalent award, right or property by any successor corporation.
      Any such action may be effectuated by the board of directors or compensation committee either by the terms of the applicable award agreement or by action of the board of directors or compensation committee taken prior to the change in control.
      Amendment and Termination. The board of directors, or the compensation committee when so empowered, is generally authorized to adopt, amend and rescind rules relating to the administration of the 2005 Incentive Award Plan, and to amend, suspend and terminate the 2005 Incentive Award Plan. We have attempted to structure the 2005 Incentive Award Plan in a manner such that remuneration attributable to stock options and other awards will not be subject to the deduction limitation contained in Section 162(m) of the Code. However, we must generally obtain approval of our stockholders: (i) to increase the number of shares of our common stock that may be issued under the 2005 Incentive Award Plan; (ii) to extend the limit on the period during which options may be granted; or (iii) to the extent required by applicable law, rule or regulation (including any applicable NASD rule).
Employee Stock Purchase Plan
      Purpose. In May 2005, our board of directors adopted, and our stockholders approved, our Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”). The purpose of the ESPP is to assist our employees in purchasing shares of common stock from us at a discounted purchase price.

86


Table of Contents

      Duration and Eligibility. The ESPP will become effective on the date on which we file a registration statement on Form S-8 with respect to the ESPP. The first offering period shall be the later of January 1, 2006 or the first day of the second calendar month following the calendar month in which the effective date occurs. The ESPP shall terminate ten years after the date on which the stockholders initially approve the ESPP or such earlier date as determined by our board of directors. An employee must work at least 20 hours per week and be employed customarily by us for at least five months in a calendar year in order to participate. Those employees that complete their first five months of employment at a date later than the effective date of the ESPP will be eligible to enroll in the ESPP at the beginning of the next option period.
      Administration. The ESPP is administered by our compensation committee, although our compensation committee may delegate administration to one or more of our officers.
      Stock Subject to the Employee Stock Purchase Plan. Shares of common stock delivered under the ESPP will be authorized but unissued shares or reacquired shares. The total number of shares of common stock reserved and available for distribution under the ESPP is 1,500,000. No fees, commissions or other charges will be payable by a plan participant in connection with the purchase of the shares from us in accordance with the ESPP.
      Price. For employees eligible to participate on the first date of an offering period, the purchase price of shares of common stock under the ESPP will be 85% of the fair market value of the shares on the date of purchase.
      Method of Payment. Shares of common stock purchased under the ESPP will be paid for by payroll deductions in an amount designated by the employee, but not exceeding 20% of the employee’s total compensation (consisting of base salary, bonuses, overtime and commissions). The amounts so deducted will be paid to us and the number of shares of common stock purchased by each participating employee will be credited to an account established for the employee.
      Termination. An employee’s participation in the ESPP and purchases of common stock thereunder will terminate, and no additional purchases of common stock under the ESPP will be made on behalf of such employee, as follows:
  •  upon the effective date of the employee’s written notice electing to cease payroll deductions and withdraw from the ESPP delivered to the compensation committee;
 
  •  immediately upon an employee’s withdrawal from the ESPP or termination of employment; or
 
  •  upon the termination of the ESPP by our board of directors.
      Upon the termination of an employee’s employment or the termination of the ESPP all amounts held in an employee’s account (less amounts previously used to purchase shares of common stock on behalf of the participant) will be refunded to the employee, without interest.
      Issuance of Common Stock; Resale Restrictions. Each employee will have rights as a stockholder with respect to any shares purchased under the ESPP as of the date such shares are credited to the employee’s account. At any time after such shares are credited to an employee’s account, the participating employee may direct the future handling of the shares (including their sale or transfer). No special restrictions on resale will be applicable to shares of common stock acquired under the ESPP, other than securities laws and regulations of general application, including those relating to insider trading and short-swing profit.
      Taxation. Our obligation to deliver shares of common stock under the ESPP, in whole or in part, will be subject to each participating employee’s satisfaction of any and all applicable federal, state and local income and employment tax withholding obligations.
      Non-Transferability. A participating employee or former employee or the legal representative of such employee or former employee, may not assign or transfer, except by the laws of descent and distribution, any option, election to purchase shares of common stock, funds in an account or any other interest under the ESPP or under any account, nor may any other voluntary or involuntary sale, pledge, anticipation, alienation,

87


Table of Contents

encumbrance, garnishment or attachment, be made or be recognized. During a participating employee’s lifetime, the right to make purchases under the ESPP may be exercised only by such employee.
      Amendment, Modification or Termination. We may amend, suspend or terminate the ESPP at any time, in our sole discretion, provided that the ESPP may not be amended to increase the maximum number of shares of common stock subject to the ESPP or change the designation or class of employees eligible to participate under the ESPP without approval of our stockholders within twelve months before or after any such amendment is made by the board of directors.
Stock Ownership and Retention Program
      In May 2005, our board of directors adopted a Stock Ownership and Retention Program. Under the Stock Ownership and Retention Program, if an officer or a non-employee director has not attained the minimum equity interest requirements described below, his or her ability to sell shares of common stock received upon the exercise of options is limited, without the compensation committee’s prior permission. Executive officers must agree to participate in the Stock Ownership and Retention Program to be eligible to receive options or stock awards. All of our current executive officers have agreed to participate in the Stock Ownership and Retention Program.
      Each officer and non-employee director must attain the minimum equity interest requirement for that individual by the fifth anniversary of the later of the completion of this offering or the date that such individual commenced services to us as an employee or director, as applicable. Until the officer or non-employee director achieves the minimum equity interest requirement specified under the Stock Ownership and Retention Program, the executive or non-employee director must retain at least 25% of all shares of common stock acquired upon exercise of vested options (net of shares used to pay for the exercise price and taxes resulting from such exercise). The minimum equity interest requirement provides that the combined value of the common stock and restricted stock held by the officer or non-employee director, each valued at the then-current market price of our common stock, must be equal to or greater than a designated multiple of the officer’s annual base salary or the non-employee director’s annual retainer. The multiples are six times for our President or Chief Executive Officer, two times for each Senior Vice President of us or our subsidiaries, two times for each President or Chief Executive Officer of any of our subsidiaries, and four times for each non-employee director. Once the officer or non-employee director has achieved the minimum equity interest requirement, and for so long as the officer or non-employee director maintains that level of investment, the officer or non-employee director may sell any stock acquired upon exercise of vested options.
Senior Executive Incentive Bonus Plan
      In May 2005, our board of directors adopted, and our stockholders approved, our Senior Executive Incentive Bonus Plan. The Senior Executive Incentive Bonus Plan is a performance-based incentive bonus plan under which our designated key executives, including our executive officers, are eligible to receive bonus payments with respect to a specified period (for example, our fiscal year). Bonuses are payable under the Senior Executive Incentive Bonus Plan upon the attainment of pre-established performance goals. Such performance goals may relate to one or more corporate business criteria with respect to us or any of our subsidiaries, including but not limited to: net income (loss) (either before or after interest, taxes, depreciation and/or amortization), sales or revenue, acquisitions or strategic transactions, operating income (loss), cash flow (including, without limitation, operating cash flow and free cash flow), return on capital, return on assets (including, without limitation, return on net assets), return on stockholders’ equity, economic value added, stockholder returns, return on sales, gross or net profit margin, productivity, expenses, margins, operating efficiency, customer satisfaction, working capital, earnings (loss) per share, price per share of equity securities, market share and number of customers, any of which may be measured either in absolute terms or as compared to any incremental increase or decrease, or as compared to results of a peer group.
      The Senior Executive Incentive Bonus Plan is intended to provide an incentive for superior work and to motivate covered key executives toward even higher achievement and business results, to tie their goals and interests to those of ours and our stockholders and to enable us to attract and retain highly qualified

executives. The Senior Executive Incentive Bonus Plan will be administered by the compensation committee. The compensation committee will select the participants in the Senior Executive Incentive Bonus Plan and the performance goals to be utilized with respect to the participants, establish the bonus formulas for of each participant’s annual bonus, and certify whether the performance goals have been met with respect to a given performance period. We may amend or terminate the Senior Executive Incentive Bonus Plan at any time in our sole discretion. Any amendments to the Senior Executive Incentive Bonus Plan will require stockholder approval only to the extent required by applicable law, rule or regulation.
Employees’ Deferred Compensation Plan
      In May 2005, our board of directors adopted our Employees’ Deferred Compensation Plan. The Employees’ Deferred Compensation Plan is a non-qualified retirement plan. The Employees’ Deferred Compensation Plan allows a select group of our management or highly compensated employees to elect to defer certain bonuses that would otherwise be payable to the employee. Amounts deferred under the Employees’ Deferred Compensation Plan are general liabilities of DealerTrack and are represented by bookkeeping accounts maintained on behalf of the participants. Such accounts are deemed to be invested in share units that track the value of our common stock. Distributions will generally be made to a participant following the participant’s termination of employment or other separation from service, following a change of control if so elected, or over a fixed period of time elected by the participant prior to the deferral. Distributions will generally be made in the form of shares of our common stock. Our Employees’ Deferred Compensation Plan is intended to comply with Section 409A of the Code.
401(k) Plan
      In January 2001, DealerTrack, Inc. implemented a 401(k) Plan covering certain employees. The 401(k) Plan has been amended several times, including to provide for the coverage of employees from companies that we have acquired. Currently, there is an up to one month waiting period for our employees over the age of 18 to participate in the 401(k) plan. Pursuant to the 401(k) Plan, eligible employees may elect to reduce their current compensation by up to the lesser of 20% of their base salary and commissions or the prescribed annual limit ($14,000 in 2005) and contribute these amounts to the 401(k) Plan. We currently make contributions to the 401(k) Plan on behalf of eligible employees. Currently, we may make a matching contribution equal to a percentage of an eligible employee’s elective deferral contributions. Under our 401(k) Plan we may also make an additional matching contribution after the end of the plan year for all eligible employees and a qualified nonelective contribution each plan year. The maximum match for any employee in 2005 will be $5,250. Employees become 20% vested in our matching contributions after two years of service, and increase their vested percentages by an additional 20% for each year of additional service for the next two years and then after five years of service become fully vested. The 401(k) Plan is intended to qualify under Section 401 of the Code so that contributions by employees or by us to the 401(k) Plan, and income earned on the 401(k) Plan contributions, are not taxable to employees until withdrawn from the 401(k) Plan, and so that contributions by us, if any, will be deductible by us when made. The trustee under the 401(k) Plan, at the direction of each participant, invests the 401(k) Plan employee salary deferrals in selected investment options. During the year ended December 31, 2002, 2003 and 2004, we contributed approximately $0.2 million, $0.2 million and $0.3 million, respectively, to the 401(k) Plan.
Limitation of Liability and Indemnification of Officers and Directors
      Our fifth amended and restated certificate of incorporation that will be in effect upon completion of this offering limits the personal liability of directors for breach of fiduciary duty to the maximum extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law. Except to the extent such exemption from liability is not permitted under the Delaware General Corporation Law, our certificate of incorporation provides that no director will have personal liability to us or to our stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty or other duty as a director. However, these provisions do not eliminate or limit the liability of any of our directors:
  •  for any breach of their duty of loyalty to us or our stockholders;

89


Table of Contents

  •  for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law;
 
  •  for voting or assenting to unlawful payments of dividends or other distributions; or
 
  •  for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.
      Any amendment to or repeal of these provisions will not eliminate or reduce the effect of these provisions in respect of any act or failure to act, or any cause of action, suit or claim that would accrue or arise prior to any amendment or repeal or adoption of an inconsistent provision. If the Delaware General Corporation Law is amended to provide for further limitations on the personal liability of directors of corporations, then the personal liability of our directors will be further limited to the greatest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law.
      In addition, our by-laws provide that we must indemnify our directors and officers and we must advance expenses, including attorneys’ fees, to our directors and officers in connection with legal proceedings, subject to very limited exceptions.
      In addition to the indemnification provided for in our amended and restated by-laws, we have entered into separate indemnification agreements with each of our directors and executive officers which are broader than the specific indemnification provisions contained in the Delaware General Corporation Law. These indemnification agreements require us, among other things, to indemnify our directors and executive officers for some expenses, including attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines and settlement amounts incurred by a director or executive officer in any action or proceeding arising out of his service as one of our directors or executive officers, or any of our subsidiaries or any other company or enterprise to which the person provides services at our request, and require us to obtain directors’ and officers’ insurance if available on reasonable terms. We believe that these provisions and agreements are necessary to attract and retain qualified individuals to serve as directors and executive officers.
      At present, there is no pending litigation or proceeding, involving any of our directors, officers, employees or agents in which indemnification by us is sought, nor are we aware of any threatened litigation or proceeding that may result in a claim for indemnification.
      We have purchased a policy of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance that insures our directors and officers against the cost of a defense, settlement or payment of a judgment in some circumstances.
Rule 10b5-1 Trading Plans
      Our directors and officers may adopt written plans, known as Rule 10b5-1 plans, in which they will contract with a broker to buy or sell shares of our common stock on a periodic basis. Under a Rule 10b5-1 plan, a broker executes trades pursuant to parameters established by the director or officer when entering into the plan, without further direction from them. The director or officer may amend or terminate the plan in some circumstances. Our directors and officers may also buy or sell additional shares outside of a Rule 10b5-1 plan when they are not in possession or aware of material, nonpublic information relating to DealerTrack.

Holders of common stock are entitled to receive proportionately any dividends as may be declared by our board of directors, subject to any preferential dividend rights of outstanding preferred stock.
      In the event of our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, the holders of common stock are entitled to receive proportionately our net assets available after the payment of all debts and other liabilities and subject to the prior rights of any outstanding preferred stock. Holders of common stock have no preemptive, subscription, redemption or conversion rights. Our outstanding shares of common stock and the shares offered by us in this offering will be, when issued and paid for, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. The rights, preferences and privileges of holders of common stock are subject to and may be adversely affected by, the rights of the holders of shares of any series of preferred stock that we may designate and issue in the future.
Preferred Stock
      Under the terms of our fifth amended and restated certificate of incorporation, our board of directors is authorized to direct us to issue shares of preferred stock in one or more series without stockholder approval.

101


Table of Contents

Our board of directors has the discretion to determine the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions, including voting rights, dividend rights, conversion rights, redemption privileges and liquidation preferences of each series of preferred stock.
      The purpose of authorizing our board of directors to issue preferred stock and determine the rights and preferences of such preferred stock is to eliminate delays associated with a stockholder vote on specific issuances. The issuance of preferred stock, while providing flexibility in connection with possible acquisitions, future financings and other corporate purposes, could have the effect of making it more difficult for a third party to acquire, or could discourage a third party from seeking to acquire, a majority of our outstanding voting stock. Upon the completion of this offering, there will be no shares of preferred stock outstanding and we have no present plans to issue any shares of preferred stock.

Anti-Takeover Provisions
      Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law. We are subject to Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law. Subject to certain exceptions, Section 203 prevents a publicly held Delaware corporation from engaging in a “business combination” with any “interested stockholder” for three years following the date that the person became an interested stockholder, unless the interested stockholder attained such status with the approval of our board of directors or unless the business combination is approved in a prescribed manner. A “business combination” includes, among other things, a merger or consolidation involving us and the interested stockholder and the sale of more than 10% of our assets. In general, an “interested stockholder” is any entity or person beneficially owning 15% or more of our outstanding voting stock and any entity or person affiliated with or controlling or controlled by such entity or person.
      Classified Board of Directors. Our fifth amended and restated certificate of incorporation divides our board of directors into three classes with staggered three-year terms. In addition, our fifth amended and restated certificate of incorporation and our amended and restated by-laws provide that directors may be removed only for cause and only by the affirmative vote of the holders of 75% or more of our shares of capital stock present in person or by proxy and entitled to vote. Under our fifth amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated by-laws, any vacancy on our board of directors, including a vacancy resulting from an enlargement of our board of directors, may be filled only by vote of a majority of our directors then in office. The classification of our board of directors and the limitations on the ability of our stockholders to remove directors and fill vacancies could make it more difficult for a third party to acquire, or discourage a third party from seeking to acquire, control of us.
      Stockholder Action by Written Consent. Our fifth amended and restated certificate of incorporation and our amended and restated by-laws provide that any action required or permitted to be taken by our stockholders at an annual meeting or special meeting of stockholders may only be taken if it is properly

102


Table of Contents

brought before such meeting and may be taken by written action in lieu of a meeting only if previously approved by the board.
      Special Meetings of Stockholders. Our fifth amended and restated certificate of incorporation and our amended and restated by-laws also provide that, except as otherwise required by law, special meetings of the stockholders may only be called by our board of directors.
      Advance Notice Requirements for Stockholder Proposals and Director Nominations. In addition, our amended and restated by-laws establish an advance notice procedure for stockholder proposals to be brought before an annual meeting of stockholders, including proposed nominations of candidates for election to our board of directors. Stockholders at an annual meeting may only consider proposals or nominations specified in the notice of meeting or brought before the meeting by or at the direction of our board of directors or by a stockholder of record on the record date for the meeting, who is entitled to vote at the meeting and who has delivered timely written notice in proper form to our secretary of the stockholder’s intention to bring such business before the meeting. These provisions could have the effect of delaying stockholder actions that are favored by the holders of a majority of our outstanding voting securities until the next stockholder meeting.
      Amendment of Certificate of Incorporation or By-laws. The Delaware General Corporation Law provides generally that the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares entitled to vote on any matter is required to amend a corporation’s certificate of incorporation or by-laws, unless a corporation’s certificate of incorporation or by-laws, as the case may be, requires a greater percentage. Our amended and restated by-laws may be amended or repealed by a majority vote of our board of directors or by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least 75% of the votes which all our stockholders would be entitled to cast in any annual election of directors. In addition, the affirmative vote of the holders of at least 75% of the votes which all our stockholders would be entitled to cast in any election of directors is required to amend or repeal or to adopt any provisions inconsistent with any of the provisions of our fifth amended and restated certificate of incorporation described in the prior two paragraphs.
Registration Rights
      Upon the completion of this offering, holders of an aggregate of                      shares (or                      shares if the underwriters exercise their over-allotment option in full) of our common stock will have the right to require us to register these shares under the Securities Act under certain circumstances.

Cox III, Mary Cirillo-Goldberg and Mark F. O’Neil which provides for:
  •  an unlimited number of piggyback registrations pursuant to which we are required to register sales of a holder’s shares under the Securities Act when we undertake a public offering either on our own behalf or on behalf of another stockholder, subject to the discretion of the managing underwriter of the offering to decrease the amount that holders may register, with priority given, in the case of a public offering undertaken on our own behalf, first to the shares to be sold by us, then to shares to be sold by the holders exercising these piggyback registration rights, and then to all other shares and, in the case of a public offering on behalf of another stockholder, first to the shares to be sold by such stockholder, then to shares to be sold by us, and then to all other shares,
 
  •  two demand registrations pursuant to which we are required to register sales of a holder’s shares under the Securities Act that would result in aggregate net proceeds of at least $30,000,000, subject to certain rights to delay up to 180 days the filing or effectiveness of any such registration statements; and
 
  •  one registration on Form S-3 (or equivalent short-form registration statement) per year pursuant to which we are required to register sales of a holder’s shares under the Securities Act, subject to the

103


Table of Contents

  aggregate market value (at the time of a holder’s request) of the shares registered by such holder being no less than $5,000,000.

      Registration of any shares of common stock would result in such shares becoming freely tradeable without restriction under the Securities Act immediately upon effectiveness of such registration.
      Generally, we have agreed to pay all expenses of any registration pursuant to the registration rights agreement, except that underwriters’ discounts and commissions shall be borne pro rata by the parties selling shares pursuant to the applicable registration statement.
Transfer Agent and Registrar
      The transfer agent and registrar for our common stock is Wachovia Bank, National Association.
The NASDAQ National Market
      We expect our common stock to be quoted on The NASDAQ National Market under the symbol “TRAK.”

SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE
      Immediately prior to this offering, there was no public market for our common stock. Future sales of substantial amounts of common stock in the public market, including shares issued upon exercise of outstanding options after any restrictions on sale lapse, or the perception that such sales could occur, could adversely affect the market price of our common stock.
      Upon completion of this offering,                      shares of common stock will be outstanding, including the issuance of                      shares of common stock offered by us and assuming no exercise of options outstanding after                     , 2005. All                      shares sold in this offering will be freely tradeable without restriction or further registration under the Securities Act, unless purchased by our “affiliates,” as that term is defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act.
      All of the remaining                      shares of common stock were issued and sold by us in reliance on exemptions from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. Of these shares,                      will be subject to lock-up agreements, described in “Underwriting,” on the date of this prospectus. Upon expiration of the lock-up agreements, these shares will become eligible for sale in the public market pursuant to Rule 144(k), Rule 144 or Rule 701, as described below.

      The SEC has indicated that Rule 701 will apply to typical stock options granted by an issuer before it becomes subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, along with the shares acquired upon exercise of such options, including exercises after the date of this prospectus. Securities issued in reliance on Rule 701 are restricted securities and, subject to the lock-up restrictions described below, beginning 90 days after the date of this prospectus, may be sold by persons other than “affiliates,” as defined in Rule 144, subject only to the manner of sale provisions of Rule 144 and by “affiliates” under Rule 144 without compliance with its one-year minimum holding period requirement but subject to the manner of sale, notice filing, volume limitation and current public information requirements of Rule 144.
Lock-up Agreements
      The holders of substantially all of our currently outstanding stock have agreed that, subject to certain exceptions described in “Underwriting,” without the prior written consent of J.P. Morgan Securities Inc. and Lehman Brothers Inc. on behalf of the underwriters, they will not, during the period ending 180 days after the date of this prospectus, subject to certain extensions, (i) offer, pledge, announce the intention to sell, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any shares of our common stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for common stock, (ii) enter into any swap or other agreement that transfers, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the common stock, whether any such transaction described in clause (i) or (ii) above is to be settled by delivery of common stock or such other securities, in cash or otherwise, or (iii) make any demand for or exercise any right with respect to, the registration of any shares of common stock or any security convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for common stock.

Covenants
      Our credit facilities contain restrictive covenants that limit our ability and our existing or future subsidiaries’ abilities, among other things, to:

MATERIAL U.S. FEDERAL TAX CONSIDERATIONS
FOR NON-U.S. HOLDERS OF OUR COMMON STOCK
      The following is a summary of certain United States federal income tax consequences relating to the purchase, ownership and disposition of our common stock by a non-U.S. holder as of the date hereof. This discussion does not address all aspects of United States federal income taxes that may be relevant to a non-U.S. holder of common stock. For example, in the case of a non-U.S. holder that is a partnership, the United States tax consequences of holding and disposing of our common stock may be affected by determinations made at the partner level. This discussion also does not address foreign, state and local tax consequences. Special rules may apply to certain non-U.S. holders, such as insurance companies, tax-exempt organizations, banks, financial institutions, dealers in securities, holders of securities held as part of a “straddle,” “hedge” or “conversion transaction,” “controlled foreign corporations,” “passive foreign investment companies,” “foreign personal holding companies” and corporations that accumulate earnings to avoid United States federal income tax, that are subject to special treatment under the Code. Such persons should consult their own tax advisors to determine the United States federal, state, local and other tax consequences that may be relevant to them. Furthermore, the discussion below is based upon the provisions of the Code, and regulations, rulings and judicial decisions thereunder as of the date hereof, and these authorities may be repealed, revoked or modified with retroactive effect so as to result in United States federal income tax consequences different from those discussed below.
      Persons considering the purchase, ownership or disposition of common stock should consult their own tax advisors concerning the United States federal income tax consequences in light of their particular situations as well as any consequences arising under the laws of any other taxing jurisdiction.
      As used in this section, a “U.S. holder” of common stock means a holder that is (1) a citizen or resident of the United States, (2) a corporation or partnership created or organized in or under the laws of the United States or of any state thereof or in the District of Columbia, unless in the case of a partnership, United States Treasury regulations provide otherwise, (3) an estate the income of which is subject to United States federal income taxation regardless of its source and (4) a trust (A) if a court within the United States is able to exercise primary supervision over the administration of the trust and one or more United States persons has the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust or (B) that has a valid election in effect under applicable United States Treasury regulations to be treated as a United States person. A “non-U.S. holder” is a holder that is not a U.S. holder.
      An individual may, in many cases, be deemed to be a resident alien, as opposed to a nonresident alien, by virtue of being present in the United States for at least 31 days in the calendar year and for an aggregate of at least 183 days during a three-year period ending in the current calendar year. For these purposes, all the days present in the current year, one-third of the days present in the immediately preceding year, and one-sixth of the days present in the second preceding year are counted. Resident aliens are subject to United States federal income tax as if they were United States citizens.
Dividends
      As discussed under “Dividend Policy” above, we do not currently expect to pay dividends. In the event that we do pay dividends, then dividends paid to a non-U.S. holder of common stock generally will be subject to withholding of United States federal income tax at a 30% rate or such lower rate as may be specified by an applicable income tax treaty. To claim the benefit of a lower rate under an income tax treaty, a non-U.S. holder must properly file with the payor an IRS Form W-8BEN, or successor form, claiming an exemption from or reduction in withholding under the applicable tax treaty. However, dividends that are effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business by the non-U.S. holder within the United States and, where a tax treaty applies, are attributable to a United States permanent establishment of the non-U.S. holder, are not subject to withholding tax, but instead are subject to United States federal income tax on a net income basis at applicable graduated individual or corporate rates. Certain certification and disclosure requirements must be complied with in order for effectively connected income to be exempt from withholding. Any such effectively connected dividends received by a foreign corporation may be subject to an additional “branch profits tax” at a 30% rate or

110


Table of Contents

such lower rate as may be specified by an applicable income tax treaty. A non-U.S. holder of common stock who wishes to claim the benefit of an applicable treaty rate (and avoid back-up withholding as discussed below) for dividends paid will be required to satisfy applicable certification and other requirements and may be required to obtain a United States taxpayer identification number.
      A non-U.S. holder of common stock eligible for a reduced rate of United States withholding tax may obtain a refund of any excess amounts withheld by filing an appropriate claim for refund with the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”).
Gain on Disposition of Common Stock
      A non-U.S. holder generally will not be subject to United States federal income tax with respect to gain recognized on a sale or other disposition of common stock unless (1) the gain is effectively connected with a trade or business of the non-U.S. holder in the United States, and, where a tax treaty applies, is attributable to a United States permanent establishment of the non-U.S. holder, (2) in the case of a non-U.S. holder who is an individual and holds the common stock as a capital asset, such holder is present in the United States for 183 or more days in the taxable year of the sale or other disposition and certain other conditions are met or (3) we are or have been a “U.S. real property holding corporation” within the meaning of Section 897 of the Code for United States federal income tax purposes within the shorter of the five-year period preceding such disposition or such non-U.S. holder’s holding period.
      A non-U.S. holder described in clause (1) above will be subject to tax on the net gain derived from the sale under regular graduated United States federal income tax rates and, if it is a corporation, may be subject to the branch profits tax at a rate equal to 30% of its effectively connected earnings and profits or at such lower rate as may be specified by an applicable income tax treaty. An individual non-U.S. holder described in clause (2) above will be subject to a flat 30% tax on the gain derived from the sale, which may be offset by United States source capital losses (even though the individual is not considered a resident of the United States).
      We believe we are not and do not anticipate becoming a “U.S. real property holding corporation” for United States federal income tax purposes.
Information Reporting and Backup Withholding
      We must report annually to the IRS and to each non-U.S. holder the amount of dividends paid to such holder and the tax withheld with respect to such dividends, regardless of whether withholding was required. Copies of the information returns reporting such dividends and withholding may also be made available to the tax authorities in the country in which the non-U.S. holder resides under the provisions of an applicable income tax treaty.
      A non-U.S. holder may be subject to backup withholding unless applicable certification requirements are met.
      Payment of the proceeds of a sale of common stock within the United States is subject to both backup withholding and information reporting unless the beneficial owner certifies under penalties of perjury that it is a non-U.S. holder (and the payor does not have actual knowledge or reason to know that the beneficial owner is a United States person) or the holder otherwise establishes an exemption. In general, backup withholding and information reporting will not apply to the payment of the proceeds of a sale of common stock by or through a foreign office of a broker. However, payment of the proceeds of a sale of common stock conducted through certain United States related financial intermediaries is subject to information reporting (but not backup withholding) unless the financial intermediary has documentary evidence in its records that the beneficial owner is a non-U.S. holder and specified conditions are met or an exemption is otherwise established.
      Any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules may be allowed as a refund or a credit against such holder’s United States federal income tax liability provided the required information is furnished to the IRS.

      The underwriting agreement provides that the obligations of the underwriters are subject to certain conditions precedent, including the absence of any material adverse change in our business and the receipt of certain certificates, opinions and letters from us, our counsel and the independent auditors. The underwriters are committed to purchase all the common shares offered by us and the selling stockholders, other than those shares covered by the over-allotment option described below, if they purchase any shares.
      The following table shows the per share and total underwriting discounts and commissions to be paid by us and the selling stockholders. These amounts are shown assuming both no exercise and full exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option to purchase additional shares.

      We estimate that the total expenses of this offering that are payable by us, excluding underwriting discounts and commissions, will be approximately $           million.
      The underwriters propose to offer the common shares directly to the public at the initial public offering price set forth on the cover page of this prospectus and to certain dealers at that price less a concession not in excess of $           per share. The underwriters may allow, and such dealers may reallow, a concession not in excess of $           per share to certain other dealers. After the initial public offering of the shares, the offering price and other selling terms may be changed by the underwriters. The representatives have advised us that the underwriters do not intend to confirm discretionary shares in excess of 5% of the shares of common shares offered in this offering.
      We have granted the underwriters an option to buy up to an aggregate of                     additional common shares and the selling stockholders have granted to the underwriters an option to purchase up to an aggregate of                     additional common shares, at the initial public offering price less the underwriting discounts and commissions set forth on the cover page of this prospectus. The underwriters have 30 days from the date of this prospectus to exercise this option. To the extent that the underwriters exercise this option, each underwriter will have a firm commitment to purchase approximately the same percentage of additional common shares which the number of shares to be purchased by it shown in the table found above bears to the total number of shares offered hereby. The underwriters may exercise this option only to cover over-allotments made in connection with the sale of common shares offered hereby.
      The offering of the common shares is made for delivery when, as and if accepted by the underwriters and subject to prior sale and to withdrawal, cancellation or modification of this offering without notice. The underwriters reserve the right to reject an order for the purchase of common shares in whole or in part.

      We and the selling stockholders have agreed to indemnify the underwriters against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, and liabilities incurred in connection with the directed share program referred to below, and to contribute to payments that the underwriters may be required to make for these liabilities.
      We, subject to certain limited exceptions, and our executive officers, directors and other stockholders and optionholders owning substantially all of our shares have agreed not to, without the prior written consent of J.P. Morgan Securities Inc. and Lehman Brothers Inc., (i) offer, pledge, announce the intention to sell, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any common shares or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for common shares or (ii) enter into any swap or other agreement that transfers, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the common shares, whether any such transaction described in clause (i) or (ii) above is to be settled by delivery of common shares or such other securities, in cash or otherwise. In addition, our executive officers, directors and other stockholders and optionholders owning substantially all of our shares have agreed not to make any demand for or exercise any right with respect to, the registration of any shares of common shares or any security convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for common shares, during the period ending 180 days after the date of this prospectus.
      The 180-day restricted period described above is subject to extension such that, in the event that either (1) during the last 17 days of the 180-day restricted period, we issue an earnings release or material news or a material event relating to us occurs or (2) prior to the expiration of the 180-day restricted period, we announce that we will release earnings results during the 16-day period beginning on the last day of the 180-day period, the “lock-up” restrictions described above will, subject to certain limited exceptions, continue to apply until the expiration of the 18-day period beginning on the earnings release or the occurrence of the material news or material event.
      A total of                      shares are subject to the lock-up restrictions described above.
      We expect the common shares to be approved for quotation on The NASDAQ National Market, subject to notice of issuance, under the symbol “TRAK.”
      Persons participating in the offering may engage in transactions, including over-allotments, syndicate covering transactions, stabilizing bids, or imposition of penalty bids, that may have the effect of stabilizing or maintaining above, or otherwise affecting, the market price of the common shares at a level from that which might otherwise prevail in the open market.
      A syndicate covering transaction is a bid for or the purchase of the common shares on behalf of the underwriters to reduce a syndicate short position incurred by the underwriters in connection with the offering. The underwriters may create a syndicate short position by making short sales of the common shares and may purchase common shares on the open market to cover syndicate short positions created by short sales. Short sales involve the sale by the underwriters of a greater number of shares of common shares than they are required to purchase in this offering. Short sales can be either covered or naked. Covered short sales are sales made in an amount not greater than the underwriters’ over-allotment option to purchase additional shares from us in the offering. Naked short sales are sales in excess of the over-allotment option. A naked short position is more likely to be created if the underwriters are concerned that there may be downward pressure on the price of the shares of common shares in the open market after pricing that could adversely affect investors who purchase in this offering. If the underwriters create a syndicate short position, they may choose to reduce or cover this position by either exercising all or part of the over-allotment option to purchase additional shares of common shares from us or by engaging in syndicate covering transactions. The underwriters may close out any covered short position by either exercising their over-allotment option or purchasing securities in the open market. The underwriters must close out any naked short position by purchasing securities in the open market. In determining the source of common shares to close out the covered short position, the underwriters will consider, among other things, the price of common shares available for purchase in the open market as compared to the price at which they may purchase common shares through the over-allotment option.

      A stabilizing bid is a bid for or the purchase of common shares on behalf of the underwriters for the purpose of fixing or maintaining the price of common shares. A penalty bid is an arrangement that permits the representatives to reclaim the selling concession from an underwriter or a syndicate member for the common shares purchased by the underwriters in a syndicate covering transaction and therefore have not been effectively placed by the underwriter or syndicate member.
      These transactions may be effected on The NASDAQ National Market or otherwise and, if commenced, may be discontinued at any time. Similar to other purchase activities, these activities may have the effect of preventing or retarding a decline in the market price of common shares. As a result, the price of common shares may be higher than the price that might otherwise exist in the open market.
      We have been advised by the representatives that they currently intend to make a market in the common shares; however, the representatives are not obligated to do so and may discontinue any such market-making without notice at any time. In addition, because J.P. Morgan Securities Inc. may be deemed to be an affiliate of ours prior to JPM-SBIC’s entry into a voting trust agreement with an independent, unaffiliated trust company on or around the completion of this offering, this prospectus may be used by J.P. Morgan Securities Inc. and its affiliates in connection with offers and sales of the common shares in market-making transactions from the date of this prospectus until                     , 2005.
      Affiliates of J.P. Morgan Securities Inc. will own                      shares of our outstanding common shares after giving effect to this offering. See “Related Party Transactions” and “Principal and Selling Stockholders.”
      In the ordinary course of their business, the underwriters or their affiliates have engaged, are engaged and may in the future engage in investment banking, financial advisory and/or commercial banking transactions with us, our affiliates and significant stockholders. JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. is a lender and acts as administrative agent and letter of credit issuing bank under our credit facilities. Lehman Commercial Paper Inc. is a lender and acts as syndication agent under our credit facilities. In addition, Wachovia Bank, National Association is a lender and acts as documentation agent under our credit facilities. See “Summary — Transactions and Relationships with Certain of the Underwriters and Their Affiliates” and “Description of Our Credit Facilities.”
      Prior to the completion of this offering, an affiliate of J.P. Morgan Securities Inc. owned more than 10% of our outstanding equity and therefore J.P. Morgan Securities Inc. may be deemed to have a “conflict of interest” with us under Rule 2720 of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. Conduct Rules. Because of that conflict of interest and because affiliates of J.P. Morgan Securities Inc., Lehman Brothers Inc. and Wachovia Capital Markets, LLC are each lenders under the term loan facility of our credit facilities and will collectively receive more than 10% of the net proceeds of this offering due to the required repayment of the term loan facility by us, this offering is being conducted in accordance with the applicable provisions of Rule 2720. Rule 2720 requires that the initial public offering price of the common shares be no higher than that recommended by a “qualified independent underwriter” as such term is defined by Rule 2720. Accordingly, William Blair & Company, L.L.C. is assuming the responsibilities of acting as the qualified independent underwriter in pricing this offering and conducting due diligence. The initial public offering price of the common shares will be no higher than the price recommended by William Blair & Company, L.L.C. We have agreed to indemnify William Blair & Company, L.L.C. for acting as qualified independent underwriter against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, and to contribute to payments that William Blair & Company, L.L.C. may be required to make for these liabilities.
      Prior to this offering, there has been no public market for our common shares. We and the underwriters, including the “qualified independent underwriter,” negotiated the initial public offering price. In determining the initial public offering price, we and the underwriters expect to consider a number of factors in addition to prevailing market conditions, including:
  •  the history of and prospects for our industry;
 
  •  an assessment of our management;
 
  •  our present operations;

114


Table of Contents

  •  the trend of our revenue and earnings; and
 
  •  our earnings prospects.
      We and the underwriters will consider these and other relevant factors in relation to the price of similar securities of generally comparable companies. Neither we nor the underwriters can assure investors that an active trading market will develop for the common shares or that the common shares will trade in the public market at or above the initial public offering price.
Directed Share Program
      At our request, the underwriters have reserved for sale at the initial public offering price up to                      shares offered hereby for officers, directors, employees and certain other persons associated with us, including certain employees of customers and vendors. Participants in this program will agree that they will not, directly or indirectly, sell, transfer, assign, pledge or hypothecate any shares for a period of at least            days from the date of this prospectus and will comply with any other applicable rules imposed by NASD Regulation, Inc. We will pay all fees and disbursements of counsel incurred by the underwriters in connection with offering the shares to such persons. The number of shares available for sale to the general public will be reduced to the extent such persons purchase such reserved shares. Any reserved shares not so purchased will be offered by the underwriters to the general public on the same basis as the other shares offered hereby.

In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements as listed in the accompanying index present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of DealerTrack Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries at December 31, 2004 and 2003, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2004 in conformity with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).

DEALERTRACK HOLDINGS, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Business Description
      We are a leading provider of on-demand software solutions for the automotive retail industry in the United States. We utilize the Internet to link automotive dealers with banks, finance companies, credit unions and other financing sources, and other service and information providers, such as the major credit reporting agencies. Our credit application processing product enables dealers to automate and accelerate the indirect automotive financing process by increasing the speed of communications between these dealers and their financing sources. Our integrated subscription-based software products and services enable our automotive dealer customers to receive valuable consumer leads, compare various financing and leasing options and programs, sell insurance and other aftermarket products, document compliance with certain laws and execute financing contracts electronically. In addition, we offer data and other products and services to various industry participants, including lease residual value and automobile configuration data.
      We began our principal business operations in February 2001 with the introduction of our credit application processing product to address inefficiencies in the automotive financing process. Since then, we have substantially increased the number of participants in our network and have introduced new products and services through our internal product development efforts, as well as through acquisitions. As a result, we have increased our total addressable market by enhancing our offering of subscription products and our data and reporting capabilities, and expanding our network of relationships.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
      The consolidated financial statements of DealerTrack Holdings, Inc. have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis of Presentation
      The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of DealerTrack Holdings, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.
Unaudited Interim Financial Statements
      The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2005, the consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2005, the consolidated statements of cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2005, and the consolidated statement of stockholders’ equity and comprehensive income for the three months ended March 31, 2005 are unaudited. These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. In our opinion, the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements and include all adjustments necessary for fair statement of the periods presented. The unaudited results for the three months ended March 31, 2005 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any subsequent quarterly or annual financial period, including for the year ending December 31, 2005.
Unaudited Pro Forma Information
      Upon closing of the planned initial public offering, each of the outstanding shares of redeemable convertible participating preferred stock will convert into shares of common stock. The pro forma balance sheet and the pro forma basic and diluted net income per share reflect the conversion of all the outstanding shares of redeemable convertible participating preferred stock into common stock. The pro forma balance sheet does not give effect to the offering proceeds.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
Reclassifications
      Certain items from prior years have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
Use of Estimates
      The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and disclosed in the financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates.
      On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to accounts receivable allowance, fair value of acquired intangible assets and goodwill, useful lives of intangible assets and property and equipment and capitalized software, deemed value of common stock for the purposes of determining stock-based compensation (see below), and income taxes, among others. We base our estimates on historical experience and on other various assumptions that are believed to be reasonable, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities.
      Our board of directors determines the fair market value of our common and preferred stock in the absence of a public market for these shares. For purposes of financial accounting for employee stock-based compensation and issuing preferred stock in acquisitions, management has applied hindsight within each year to arrive at deemed values for the shares underlying the options that are higher than the fair market values assigned by the board. These deemed fair values were determined based on a number of factors, including input from independent valuation firms, our historical and forecasted operating results and cash flows, and comparisons to publicly-held companies. The deemed values were used to determine the amount of stock-based compensation recognized related to stock options and preferred stock issuances in acquisitions.
Revenue Recognition
      Transaction Services Revenue. Transaction services revenue consists of revenue derived from the receipt of credit application data by financing sources, from financing contracts executed using our electronic contracting product and from providing automotive dealers the ability to access customer credit reports.
      We offer web-based service to financing sources for the electronic receipt of credit application data and contract data for automotive financing transactions in consideration for a transaction fee. This service is sold based upon contracts that include fixed and determinable prices and that do not include the right of return or other similar provisions or significant post service obligations. Credit application and electronic contracting processing revenue is recognized on a per transaction basis, after customer receipt and when collectibility is reasonably assured. Set-up fees charged to the financing sources for establishing connections, if any, are recognized ratably over the expected customer relationship period of three or four years, depending on the type of customer.
      Our credit report service provides our dealer customers the ability to access credit reports from several major credit reporting agencies or resellers online. We sell this service based upon contracts with the customer or report provider, as applicable, that include fixed and determinable prices and that does not include the right of return or other similar provisions or other significant post service obligations. We recognize credit report revenue on a per transaction basis, when services are rendered and when collectibility is reasonably assured. We offer these credit reports on both a reseller and an agency basis. We recognize revenue from all but one provider of credit reports on a net basis due to the fact that we are not considered the primary obligor, and recognize revenue gross with respect to one of the providers as we have the risk of loss and are considered the primary obligor in the transaction.

      Subscription Services Revenue. We derive revenue from subscriptions paid by customers who can access our on-demand and other products and services. These services are typically sold based upon annual contracts that include fixed and determinable prices and that do not include the right of return or other similar provisions or significant post service obligations. We recognize revenue from such contracts ratably over the contract period. We recognize set-up fees, if any, ratably over the expected customer relationship of three or four years, depending on the type of customer. For contracts that contain two or more products or services, we recognize revenue in accordance with the above policy using relative fair value.
      Our revenue is presented net of a provision for sales credits, which is estimated based on historical results, and established in the period in which services are provided.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
      Cash and cash equivalents represent cash and highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents.
Translation of Non-U.S. Currencies
      We have maintained business operations in Canada since January 1, 2004. The translation of assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency into U.S. dollars are made at the prevailing rate of exchange at the balance sheet date. Revenue, costs and expenses are translated at the average exchange rates during the period. Translation adjustments are reflected in accumulated other comprehensive income on our consolidated balance sheets, while gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in our consolidated statements of operations. Amounts resulting from foreign currency transactions were not material for the year ended December 31, 2004 and the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2005 (unaudited).
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
      We maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of our customers to make required payments. The amount of the allowance account is based on historical experience and our analysis of the accounts receivable balance outstanding. While credit losses have historically been within our expectations and the provisions established, we cannot guarantee that we will continue to experience the same credit loss rates that we have in the past. If the financial condition of our customers were to deteriorate, resulting in their inability to make payments, additional allowances may be required which would result in an additional expense in the period that this determination was made.
Property, Equipment and Depreciation
      Fixed assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation, which is provided for by charges to income over the estimated useful lives of the assets using the straight-line method. Maintenance and repairs are charged to operating expenses as incurred. Upon sale or other disposition, the applicable amounts of asset cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and the net amount, less proceeds from disposal, is charged or credited to income.
Software and Website Development Costs and Amortization
      We account for the costs of computer software developed or obtained for internal use in accordance with American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Statement of Position 98-1, “Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use.” We capitalize costs of materials, consultants and payroll and payroll-related costs incurred by employees involved in developing internal use computer software. Costs incurred during the preliminary project and post-implementation stages are charged to

expense. Software and website development costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over estimated useful lives ranging from two to three years. Capitalized software and website development costs were $19.5 million, $21.7 million and $24.8 million as of December 31, 2002, 2003 and 2004, respectively. Capitalized software and website development costs were $25.5 million as of March 31, 2005 (unaudited). Amortization expense totaled $8.7 million, $5.6 million and $2.7 million for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2003 and 2004, respectively. Amortization expense totaled $0.8 million and $0.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2005 (unaudited), respectively.
Goodwill, Other Intangibles and Long-lived Assets
      We record as goodwill the excess of purchase price over the fair value of the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired. Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” (SFAS No. 142), requires goodwill to be tested for impairment annually as well as when an event or change in circumstance indicates an impairment may have occurred. Goodwill is tested for impairment using a two-step approach. The first step tests for impairment by comparing the fair value of our one reporting unit to their carrying amount to determine if there is a potential goodwill impairment. If the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying value, an impairment loss is recorded to the extent that the implied fair value of the goodwill of the reporting unit is less than its carrying value.
      For purposes of performing the impairment test for goodwill as required by SFAS No. 142, we operate under one operating segment and one reporting unit. We estimate the fair value of this reporting unit using a discounted cash flow analysis and/or applying various market multiples. From time to time an independent third-party valuation expert may be utilized to assist in the determination of fair value. Determining the fair value of a reporting unit is judgmental and often involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions. Our estimate of the fair value of the reporting unit was in excess of its carrying value during 2002, 2003 and 2004. We perform the annual goodwill impairment test on October 1st of every year.
      Long-lived assets, including fixed assets and intangible assets, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. In reviewing for impairment, the carrying value of such assets is compared to the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected from the use of the assets and their eventual disposition. If such cash flows are not sufficient to support the asset’s recorded value, an impairment charge is recognized to reduce the carrying value of the long-lived asset to its estimated fair value. The determination of future cash flows as well as the estimated fair value of long-lived assets involves significant estimates on the part of management. In order to estimate the fair value of a long-lived asset, We may engage a third party to assist with the valuation. If there is a material change in economic conditions or other circumstances influencing the estimate of future cash flows or fair value, we could be required to recognize impairment charges in the future.
      We evaluate the remaining useful life of intangible assets on a periodic basis to determine whether events and circumstances warrant a revision to the remaining estimated amortization period.
Income Taxes
      Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the consolidated financial statement carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be reversed. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

Advertising Expenses
      We expense the cost of advertising and promoting our services as incurred. Such costs are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations and totaled $25,366, $0.2 million and $0.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2003 and 2004, respectively. Advertising expense totaled $0.1 million and $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2005 (unaudited), respectively.
Concentration of Credit Risk
      Our financial instruments, which potentially subject us to concentration of credit risk, consist primarily of accounts receivable. We maintain an allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable based on expected collectibility and perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers’ financial condition. For the year ended December 31, 2002, net revenue from three related party customers, A, B and C, accounted for 29%, 13% and 13%, respectively, of our total net revenue. For the year ended December 31, 2003, net revenue from one related party customer, A, accounted for 10% of our total net revenue. For the year ended December 31, 2004 and the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2005 (unaudited), respectively, no customer accounted for more that 10% of our total net revenue.
      Our revenue is generated from customers associated with the automotive industry.
Net (Loss) Income per Share
      We compute net (loss) income per share in accordance with SFAS No. 128, “Earnings per Share” and EITF 03-06, “Participating Securities and the Two-Class Method under FASB Statement No. 128.” Under the provisions of SFAS No. 128, basic earnings per share are computed by dividing the net (loss) income applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of our common stock outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share are calculated based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock plus the diluted effect of potential common shares.
      Our preferred stockholders are entitled to participate in dividends and earnings when, and if, dividends are declared on our common stock. As such, we calculated net (loss) income per share using the two-class method. The two-class method is an earnings allocation formula that treats a participating security as having rights to earnings that otherwise would have been available to common stockholders and preferred stockholders based on their respective rights to receive dividends. Losses are not allocated to our preferred stockholders for purposes of computing net (loss) income per share under the two-class method because our preferred stockholders do not have contractual obligations to share in the losses of the Company.

     (a) Our preferred stockholders had the right to accumulate dividends up to and until December 31, 2002. The preferred dividends represent the dividend which accrued to the preferred stockholders in 2002. As of March 31, 2005, we have not declared or paid any dividends. Dividends which are not paid in cash will be payable upon a Liquidity Event (as defined in the certificate of incorporation, as amended) and/or when actually converted into common stock (See Note 9). As these events were not probable as of March 31, 2005, we were not required to record the dividends in our balance sheet. However, the dividends must be deducted in the net (loss) income per share calculations in the period in which they were earned by the preferred stockholders.
     Due to the net loss applicable for common stockholders for the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2003, the effect of the potential exercise of stock options and conversion of preferred stock was not considered in the diluted earnings per share calculation since it would have been antidilutive.

Stock Based Compensation
      We have elected under the provisions of SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” (“SFAS No. 123”), to account for our employee stock options in accordance with Accounting Principle Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” (“APB No. 25”), using the intrinsic value approach to measure compensation expense, if any. Companies that account for stock-based compensation arrangements for its employees under APB No. 25 are required by SFAS No. 123 to disclose the pro forma effect on net (loss) income as if the fair value based method prescribed by SFAS No. 123 had been applied. We plan to continue to account for stock-based compensation using the provisions of APB No. 25 and have adopted the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123, as amended by SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation-Transition and Disclosure.”
      The deemed fair value of the common stock for accounting purposes was based on contemporaneous valuations performed by an independent third party and management, and approved by the board of directors. The valuations considered a number of factors including:
  •  business risks we faced and key company milestones;
 
  •  comparable company and industry analysis; and
 
  •  anticipated initial public offering price per share and the timing of the initial public offering.

      Option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected life of the option and the expected stock price volatility. Changes in the assumption could have a material impact on the computation of stock-based compensation.
      The fair market value of each option grant for all years presented has been estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model with the following assumptions:
                                         
        Three Months

    0 %     0 %     0 %     0 %     0 %
      The volatility of our common stock underlying the employee options was not considered because our equity was not publicly traded in any period presented.
      Using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model, the estimated weighted average fair value of an option to purchase one share of common stock granted during 2002, 2003 and 2004 was $0.66, $0.41 and $3.42, respectively. The estimated weighted average fair value of an option to purchase one share of common stock granted during the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2005 (unaudited) was $0.42 and $1.60, respectively.

New Accounting Standard
      In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 123R, “Share-Based Payment” (SFAS No. 123R). This standard amends SFAS No. 123 and concludes that services received from employees in exchange for stock-based compensation result in a cost to the employer that must be recognized in the consolidated financial statements. The cost of such awards should be measured at fair value at the date of grant. SFAS No. 123R provides public companies with a choice of transition methods to implement the standard. We anticipate applying the modified prospective method whereby we would recognize compensation cost for the unamortized portion of unvested awards outstanding at the effective date of SFAS No. 123R (January 1, 2006 for us). Such cost will be recognized in our consolidated financial statements over the remaining vesting period. The adoption of this standard is currently expected to reduce our 2006 earnings by approximately $0.2 million (unaudited), based upon outstanding options as of March 31, 2005.

      The aggregate purchase price was approximately $1.2 million in cash (including direct acquisition costs of approximately $50,000). Under the terms of the purchase agreement, we have future contingent payment obligations of $2.3 million if certain incremental licenses of the underlying software are sold between January 1, 2005 and December 31, 2006. The additional purchase consideration, if any, will be recorded as additional goodwill on our consolidated balance sheet when the contingency is resolved.
      This acquisition was recorded under the purchase method of accounting, resulting in the total purchase price being allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed according to their estimated fair market values at the date of acquisition as follows (in thousands):

These intangibles are being amortized on a straight-line basis over two to five years based on each intangible’s estimated useful life. We also recorded approximately $5.1 million in goodwill, which represents the remainder of the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired.
      In December 2004, we determined that a portion of previously unrecognized deferred tax assets acquired in this acquisition could be recognized and accordingly, recorded a $1.2 million adjustment against goodwill during the three months ended December 31, 2004 (see Note 12).

Anti-Dilution Adjustments
      The Conversion Price (as defined in the certificate of incorporation, as amended) will be subject to adjustment (i) on a weighted average basis to prevent dilution as a result of the issuance of additional equity at a purchase price less than the then-applicable Conversion Price, and (ii) on a pro rata basis in the event of a stock dividend, stock split, or similar event. Conversion Price adjustments are subject to customary exceptions as provided in the existing certificate of incorporation.
Conversion
      Each share of preferred stock is convertible at any time and from time to time, at the option of each holder, into the number of shares of common stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (a) the Series A Preference Amount, the Series B Preference Amount, the Series A-1 Preference Amount, the Series B-1 Preference Amount, the Series C Preference Amount, the Series C-1 Preference Amount, the Series C-2 Preference Amount, the Series A-2 Preference Amount or the Series C-3 Preference Amount (as each is defined in the certificate of incorporation, as amended), as the case may be, by (b) the conversion price, as adjusted for any anti-dilution adjustments described above. The preferred stock will automatically convert upon the closing of a firm commitment underwritten public offering with net proceeds of at least $20.0 million and a per-share price of at least $10.6128 (subject to adjustment for (i) stock splits, combinations, reclassifications and the like, and (ii) an adjustment to the price per share as defined).
      The Conversion Cost (as defined in the certificate of incorporation, as amended) (as adjusted for stock splits) as of December 31, 2004 and March 31, 2005 for the Series A Preferred Stock, the Series B Preferred Stock, the Series A-1 Preferred Stock and the Series B-1 Preferred Stock was $5.6800.

Put Provision
      In the event we have not had a Liquidity Event or a Qualified Public Offering, and so long as the original purchasers of Series C-1 Preferred Stock own 85% of such stock that was originally purchased by such stockholders and that the Series C-1 Preferred Stock have a fair market value of at least $30 million on such date, at any time after April 15, 2007 and prior to April 15, 2008, our stockholders’ agreement, as amended, grants the holders of the Series C-1 Preferred Stock the right to request us to purchase the outstanding Series C-1 Preferred Stock at the then fair market value. The determination of fair market value of the Series C-1 Shares is to be performed by an independent valuation approved by the Series C-1 stockholders.

A summary of the tax effects of the temporary differences is as follows (in thousands):
      The total provision for income taxes for the year ended December 31, 2004 does not reflect the utilization of a deferred tax asset of $0.4 million related to net operating loss carryforwards acquired from Credit Online Inc. This benefit was reflected as an adjustment to goodwill since it relates to the recognition of a deferred tax asset that was not recognized on the date of acquisition of Credit Online Inc. in March 2004.

      For the year ended December 31, 2004, the deferred tax asset valuation was reversed by $8.4 million. Included in this reversal is a $4.7 million benefit to our provision for income taxes, a $1.2 million adjustment to goodwill relating to a net operating loss acquired but not recognized at the date of acquisition of Credit Online in March 2003, coupled by a change in deferred tax assets of $2.5 million.
      Included in the December 31, 2004 deferred tax asset of $7.7 million is an offsetting deferred tax liability of $1.8 million.
      As of December 31, 2004, we had net operating loss carryforwards of $24.7 million for federal and state income tax purposes. The utilization of $10.0 million of these loss carryforwards may be subject to limitation under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code. These losses are available to reduce future taxable income and expire in varying amounts beginning 2018.
      The valuation allowance of $16.1 million as of December 31, 2003 consisted primarily of net operating loss carryforwards. Based on a number of factors, including our profits for the year ended December 31, 2004, and the level of projected future earnings based on current operations, we believe that it is more likely than not that we will generate sufficient taxable income in the future to be able to utilize a portion of our deferred tax asset as of December 31, 2004. As such, we have reversed that portion of our valuation allowance in the amount of $5.9 million during the three months ended December 31, 2004. $4.7 million of the reversal was recognized as a benefit to our income tax provision and $1.2 million of the reversal relates to an acquired tax benefit, which was not recognized at the acquisition date of Credit Online, Inc., as a valuation allowance was established against the deferred tax asset at such time. As a result, the reversal of the valuation allowance during the three months ended December 31, 2004 is recorded against goodwill. A valuation allowance has been established against the remaining $3.3 million of acquired tax benefit as of December 31, 2004. If this benefit is subsequently recognized, the reversal will be recorded against goodwill.
      The difference in income tax expense between the amount computed using the statutory federal income tax rate and our effective tax rate is primarily due to state taxes, permanent differences and the change in the valuation allowance.

13. Stock Option Plan
2001 Stock Option Plan
      On August 10, 2001, we adopted the 2001 Stock Option Plan, as amended. As of December 31, 2004, there were 3,300,000 shares of our common stock reserved for issuance to employees, directors and consultants.
      Options granted under the 2001 Stock Option Plan may be incentive stock options (ISOs) or non-qualified stock options (NSOs). ISOs may only be granted to employees. Our board of directors determines fair value and the period over which options become exercisable, however, except in the case of options granted to officers, directors and consultants, options shall become exercisable at a rate of not less than 20% per year over five years from the date the options are granted. The exercise price of ISOs and NSOs shall be no less than 100% and 85%, respectively, of the fair market value per share of our common stock on the grant date. If an individual owns stock representing more than 10% of the outstanding shares, the exercise price of each option shall be at least 110% of fair market value of the common stock, as determined by our board of directors.
      Options granted generally vest over a period of four years from the vesting commencement date, expire ten years from the date of grant and terminate, to the extent unvested, on the date of termination, and to the extent vested, generally at the end of the three-month period following termination of employment.
Stock Reissuance Program
      On or prior to October 31, 2003, 34 of our employees elected to tender 372,575 options to purchase shares of common stock under the 2001 Stock Option Plan in exchange for new options to purchase shares of common stock under the 2001 Stock Option Plan.
      The new options were granted on May 3, 2004, which was at least six months and one day following the date of cancellation of the old options. The terms of the new options were to be substantially the same as the tendered options, with the exception of the exercise price and vesting period. The exercise price was at the fair market value of the common stock on the grant date as determined in good faith by our board of directors. The vesting period remained the same as the originally tendered option grant date.

Commitments
      Pursuant to employment or severance agreements with certain employees, we have a commitment to pay severance of approximately $2.2 million as of December 31, 2004 in the event of termination without cause, as defined in the agreements (see Note 16).
      We are a party to a variety of agreements pursuant to which we may be obligated to indemnify the other party with respect to breach of contract, infringement and other matters. Typically, these obligations arise in the context of agreements entered into by us, under which we customarily agree to hold the other party harmless against losses arising from breaches of representations. In these circumstances, payment by us is generally conditioned on the other party making a claim pursuant to the procedures specified in the particular agreement, which procedures typically allow us to challenge the other party’s claims. Further, our obligations under these agreements may be limited to indemnification of third party claims only and limited in terms of time and/ or amount. In some instances, we may have recourse against third parties for certain payments made by us.

DEALERTRACK HOLDINGS, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
      It is not possible to predict the maximum potential amount of future payments under these or similar agreements due to the conditional nature of our obligations and the unique facts and circumstances involved in each particular agreement. To date, we have not been required to make any such payment. We believe that if we were to incur a loss in any of these matters, it is not probable that such loss would have a material effect on our business or financial condition. It is possible, however, that such loss could have a material impact on our results of operations in an individual reporting period.
Legal Proceedings
      From time to time, we are a party to litigation matters arising in connection with the normal course of our business, none of which is expected to have a material adverse effect on us. In addition to the litigation matters arising in connection with the normal course of our business, we are party to the litigation described below.
      On January 28, 2004, we filed suit against RouteOne LLC in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York. Our complaint seeks declaratory and injunctive relief, as well as damages against RouteOne LLC for infringement of two patents owned by DealerTrack, Inc. which relate to a system and method for credit application processing and routing. Our complaint also seeks relief for RouteOne’s acts of copyright infringement, circumvention of technological measures and common law fraud and unfair competition. The case is still in the discovery stage.
15. Segment Information
      In accordance with SFAS No. 131, “Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information,” segment information is being reported consistent with our method of internal reporting. In accordance with SFAS No. 131, operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise for which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. We have one reportable segment under SFAS No. 131. For enterprise-wide disclosure, we are organized primarily on the basis of service lines. Based on the nature and class of customer, as well as the similar economic characteristics, our product lines have been aggregated for disclosure purposes. We earn substantially all of our revenue in the United States. Revenue earned outside of the United States is less than 10% of our total net revenue.

16. Subsequent Events
Credit Facilities
      On April 15, 2005, we and one of our subsidiaries, DealerTrack, Inc., entered into credit facilities comprised of a $25.0 million revolving credit facility and a $25.0 million term loan facility at interest rates of LIBOR plus 150 basis points or prime plus 50 basis points. Proceeds from borrowings under the credit facilities were used to fund a portion of the Chrome Systems Corporation (“Chrome”), North American Advanced Technology, Inc, and its affiliates (“NAT”) and Automotive Lease Guide (alg), LLC and

F-31


Table of Contents

DEALERTRACK HOLDINGS, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
Automotive Lease Guide (alg) Canada, Inc. (“ALG”) acquisitions. The revolving credit facility is available for general corporate purposes (including acquisitions), subject to certain conditions. As of June 30, 2005, we had $6.5 million available for additional borrowings under the revolving credit facility and no availability under the term loan facility. The revolving credit facility matures on April 15, 2008 and the term loan facility matures on April 15, 2010. We are required to use up to 25% of the proceeds of any equity issuance and 100% of the proceeds of a debt issuance or disposition to repay the term loan under our credit facilities.
      Our credit facilities contain restrictive covenants that limit our ability and our existing or future subsidiaries’ abilities, among other things, to:
  •  access our, or our existing or future subsidiaries’, cash flow and value and, therefore, to pay interest and/or principal on our other indebtedness or to pay dividends on our common stock;
 
  •  incur additional indebtedness;
 
  •  issue preferred stock;
 
  •  pay dividends or make distributions in respect of our, or our existing or future subsidiaries’, capital stock or to make certain other restricted payments or investments;
 
  •  sell assets, including our capital stock;
 
  •  enter into sale and leaseback transactions;
 
  •  agree to payment restrictions;
 
  •  consolidate, merge, sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of our or the applicable subsidiary’s assets;
 
  •  enter into transactions with our or the applicable subsidiary’s affiliates;
 
  •  incur liens; and
 
  •  designate any of our, or the applicable subsidiary’s, future subsidiaries as unrestricted subsidiaries.
      In addition, our credit facilities include other and more restrictive covenants and prohibit our subsidiaries from prepaying our other indebtedness while indebtedness under our credit facilities is outstanding. The agreements governing our credit facilities also require us and our subsidiaries to achieve specified financial and operating results and maintain compliance with specified financial ratios on a consolidated basis. Our and our subsidiaries’ ability to comply with these ratios may be affected by events beyond our control.
      Our credit facilities contain the following affirmative covenants, among others: delivery of financial statements, reports, budgets, officers’ certificates and other information requested by the lenders; payment of other obligations; continuation of business and maintenance of existence and material rights and privileges; compliance with laws and material contractual obligations; maintenance of property and insurance; maintenance of books and records; right of the lenders to inspect property and books and records; notices of defaults, litigation and other material events; and compliance with laws.
Recent Acquisitions
Automotive Lease Guide (alg), LLC and Automotive Lease Guide (alg) Canada, Inc.
      On May 25, 2005, we acquired substantially all the assets and certain liabilities of ALG for a purchase price of $39.5 million (including direct acquisition costs of approximately $0.3 million) in cash and notes payable to ALG. Additional consideration of $11.3 million may be paid contingent upon certain future increases in revenue of Automotive Lease Guide (ALG), Inc. and another of our subsidiaries through December 2009. We did not acquire the equity interest in us owned by ALG as part of the acquisition and DJR US, LLC, which was formerly known as Automotive Lease Guide (alg), LLC, remains one of our stockholders. ALG’s products and services provide lease residual value data for new and used leased automobiles and guidebooks and consulting services related thereto, to manufacturers, financing sources,

investment banks, automobile dealers and insurance companies. We intend to combine ALG’s lease residual value data with our other products and services to allow us to aggregate automotive industry information and report the aggregated information to dealers, financing sources and other industry participants. This acquisition was recorded under the purchase method of accounting, resulting in the total purchase price being preliminarily allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed according to their estimated fair market values at the date of acquisition as follows:
         
Current assets

Net assets acquired
  $ 39,522  
       
      Currently, we are completing a fair value assessment of the acquired assets, liabilities and identifiable intangibles and at the conclusion of the valuation the purchase price will be allocated accordingly.
North American Advanced Technology, Inc.
      On May 23, 2005, we acquired substantially all the assets and certain liabilities of NAT. NAT’s products and services streamline and automate many traditionally time-consuming and error-prone manual processes of administering aftermarket products, such as extended service contracts, guaranteed asset protection coverage, theft deterrent devices and credit life insurance. We intend to add NAT’s products and services to our suite of solutions in order to enhance our menu-selling offering and to add insurance and other aftermarket providers to our network. The purchase price was approximately $8.7 million (including direct acquisition costs of approximately $0.2 million) in cash. For the year ended December 31, 2004, NAT had revenue of approximately $3.2 million. Currently, we are completing a fair value assessment of the acquired assets, liabilities and identifiable intangibles and at the conclusion of the assessment the purchase price will be allocated accordingly.
Chrome Systems Corporation
      On May 10, 2005, we acquired substantially all the assets and certain liabilities of Chrome for a purchase price of $20.3 million (including direct acquisition costs of approximately $0.3 million) in cash. For the year ended December 31, 2004, Chrome had revenue of $12.8 million. Chrome’s products and services enable dealers, manufacturers, financing sources, Internet portals, consumers and insurance companies to configure, compare, and price automobiles on a standardized basis. This provides more accurate valuations for both consumer trade-ins and dealer used automobile inventory. We intend to integrate Chrome’s products and services into our network to create an expanded subscription product offering for our dealer customers. This acquisition was recorded under the purchase method of accounting such that the total purchase price has been preliminarily allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed according to their fair market value at the date of acquisition as follows:
         
Current assets
  $ 2,518  
Property and equipment

2005 Incentive Award Plan
      On May 26, 2005, our board of directors adopted, and our stockholders approved, our 2005 Incentive Award Plan. 3,100,000 shares of common stock are reserved for issuance under the 2005 Incentive Award Plan, as well as shares of common stock that remain available for future option grants under our 2001 Stock Option Plan, which totaled 79,800 on May 31, 2005, and any shares underlying any existing grants under our 2001 Stock Option Plan that are forfeited. The maximum number of shares which may be subject to awards granted under the 2005 Incentive Award Plan to any individual in any fiscal year is 750,000. On May 26, 2005, our board of directors granted an aggregate of 1,000,850 options, at an exercise price of $12.92, and an aggregate of 101,000 shares of restricted common stock to our officers and directors pursuant to the 2005 Incentive Award Plan.
Employee Stock Purchase Plan
      On May 26, 2005, our board of directors adopted, and our stockholders approved, our Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”). The ESPP will become effective on the date on which we file a registration statement on Form S-8 with respect to the ESPP. The total number of shares of common stock reserved and available for distribution under the ESPP is 1,500,000. For employees eligible to participate on the first date of an offering period, the purchase price of shares of common stock under the ESPP will be 85% of the fair market value of the shares on the date of purchase.
Employees’ Deferred Compensation Plan
      On May 26, 2005, our board of directors adopted our Employees’ Deferred Compensation Plan. The Employees’ Deferred Compensation Plan is a non-qualified retirement plan. The Employees’ Deferred Compensation Plan allows a select group of our management or highly compensated employees to elect to defer certain bonuses that would otherwise be payable to the employee. Amounts deferred under the Employees’ Deferred Compensation Plan are general liabilities of DealerTrack and are represented by bookkeeping accounts maintained on behalf of the participants. Such accounts are deemed to be invested in share units that track the value of our common stock. Distributions will generally be made to a participant following the participant’s termination of employment or other separation from service, following a change of control if so elected, or over a fixed period of time elected by the participant prior to the deferral. Distributions will generally be made in the form of shares of our common stock. Our Employees’ Deferred Compensation Plan is intended to comply with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code.
      Commitments
      Subsequent to December 31, 2004, we amended certain employment and/or severance agreements with certain employees. As of the date of this report, we have a commitment to pay severance of approximately $7.4 million in the event of termination of certain employees without cause, as defined in the applicable agreements.

AUTOMOTIVE LEASE GUIDE
NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1.  Business and Organization
      Automotive Lease Guide (the Company) consists of Automotive Lease Guide, LLC, a California limited liability company and Automotive Lease Guide Canada, Inc. (an S Corporation). The entities are owned by common ownership under the same percentage ownership between the partners. The companies are owned by three members owning 63%, 31% and 6% of the companies, respectively. ALG’s products and services provide lease residual value data for new and used leased automobiles and guidebooks and consulting services related thereto, to manufacturers, financing sources, investment banks, automobile dealers and insurance companies.
2.  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
      The accompanying combined financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Both entities use the US dollar as their functional currency.
Principles of Combination
      The combined financial statements include the accounts and operations of Automotive Lease Guide, LLC and Automotive Lease Guide Canada, Inc. All material balances and transactions between the combined entities have been eliminated.
Use of Estimates
      The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Unaudited Interim Financial Statements
      The accompanying unaudited interim combined balance sheet as of March 31, 2005, the combined statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, the combined statement of changes in equity for the three months ended March 31, 2005, and the combined statements of cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004 are unaudited. These unaudited interim combined financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. In our opinion, the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements and include all adjustments necessary for fair presentation of the periods presented. The unaudited results for the three months ended March 31, 2005 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any subsequent quarterly or annual financial period, including for the year ending December 31, 2005.
Income Taxes
      No federal income tax provision has been included in the financial statements since income or loss for limited liability companies and S corporations are required to be reported by the respective members on their income tax returns. The Company pays state franchise tax based on gross revenue for the LLC and a 1.5% tax on Canadian taxable income for the S corporation.

AUTOMOTIVE LEASE GUIDE
NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
Comprehensive Income
      The Company does not have any transactions which would require them to record comprehensive income.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
      Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand and in checking and savings accounts.
Credit risk
      Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk, consist principally of cash balances and trade receivables. The Company maintains cash balances at a single financial institution. The Company generally does not require collateral on trade receivables. At December 31, 2004 and 2003, no significant concentrations of credit risk exist.
Property and Equipment
      Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. The double-declining balance method is used to depreciate the cost of property and equipment. Useful lives by asset category are as follows:
     
Computer equipment
  5 years
Software
  3 - 5 years
Furniture and office equipment
  5 - 7 years
Leasehold improvements
  7 years
      The useful life for leasehold improvements is the lesser of the life of the asset or the life of the lease. Upon the sale or retirement of property and equipment, the accounts are relieved of the cost and the related accumulated depreciation or amortization, with any resulting gain or loss included in the Statement of Operations.
      All internally developed software is capitalized in accordance with Statement of Position 98-1, Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use. All research and development costs are expensed as incurred.
Fair value of financial instruments
      The fair value of cash, accounts receivable, other assets, and accounts payable and accrued expenses as reflected in the financial statements approximate their carrying value at December 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003, respectively.
Forward Hedges
      The Company entered into a foreign exchange forward solely for hedging purposes, whether or not it qualified for hedge accounting under SFAS No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.” The Company did not meet the requirements for gain/(loss) deferral under SFAS No. 133 and accordingly, the Company used marked to market accounting. Under the marked to market approach, the gain or loss on the forward contract is recognized in income at the end of each period and upon settlement. Amounts to be paid/received under these agreements are recognized as a foreign exchange gain or loss in the Statement of Operations.

NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
Inventory
      The Company capitalizes direct costs directly attributable to the time incurred in determining the residual values for the guidebooks which are issued for two months. All amounts capitalized are expensed upon delivery date of the product to the customer. The costs incurred in association with these projects are recorded in costs of sales in the Statement of Operations.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
      The Company assesses long-lived assets for impairment whenever there is an indication that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. With respect to its investments, the Company makes its estimate of fair value by considering recent investee equity transactions, discounted cash flow analyses and balance sheet liquidation values. If the fair value of the investments dropped below the carrying amount, management considers several factors when determining whether an other-than-temporary decline in market value has occurred including the length of the time and the extent to which the market value has been below cost, the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, the intent and ability of the Company to retain its investment in the issuer for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in market value, and other factors influencing the fair market value, such as general market conditions.
Accounts Receivable and Revenue Recognition
      Revenue is recognized upon determination of a fixed or determinable fee, pervasive evidence of an arrangement exists, collectibility of the fee is reasonably assured, and delivery has occurred or services provided. Revenue is recognized in the period that the subscription or service is provided. Advanced billings for advanced listings are recorded as deferred revenue and recognized pro rata as fulfilled over the terms of the applicable agreement.
      The Company follows Emerging Issues Task Force No. 00-21, “Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables” for revenue recognition of revenues derived from a single contract that contains multiple products or services. For multiple element arrangements, the Company believes it has only a single unit of accounting for all such arrangements noted.
      The Company has not recorded an allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company recorded write-offs of $24,434 and $6,567 in 2004 and 2003, respectively. The Company did not record any write-offs for the three months ended March 31, 2005 (unaudited).

The 25% interest was accounted for under the equity-method of accounting with an equity loss of approximately $12,000 for 2002. During 2003, the Company determined due to consecutive years of losses by Bahr & Fess and future projected losses that the carrying amount of the equity-method investment in Bahr & Fess was impaired on a basis that was other than temporary. The Company recorded an impairment charge of approximately $613,499 in 2003.
5.  Related Party Transactions
      The majority owner loaned the Company $1,575,000, which is payable on demand with quarterly interest payments at 1% above the average Wall Street Journal prime rate.

Independent Auditors’ Report
The Board of Directors
Chrome Systems Corporation:
      We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Chrome Systems Corporation (a Delaware corporation) as of December 31, 2004, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.
      We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
      In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Chrome Systems Corporation as of December 31, 2004, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

CHROME SYSTEMS CORPORATION
Notes to Financial Statements
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
     (a) Nature of Operations
      Chrome Systems Corporation (the Company) develops and distributes vehicle configuration and pricing information software to customers throughout the United States and Canada.
     (b) Concentration of Credit Risk
      The Company grants credit to its customers which are primarily internet portals, credit unions, and automotive manufactures or dealerships. The Company had receivables of $1,005,925 from one customer at December 31, 2004. The Company generated revenues of $6,474,238 during 2004 from this same customer.
     (c) Cash and Cash Equivalents
      For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
     (d) Accounts Receivable
      Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. The allowance for doubtful accounts is the Company’s best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in the Company’s existing accounts receivable. The Company determines the allowance based on historical write-off experience.
     (e) Fair Value of Financial Instruments
      The Company’s financial instruments consist of accounts receivable, accounts payable, and capital lease obligations. For the periods presented, the fair value of the Company’s financial instruments approximate their carrying value.
     (f) Property and Equipment
      Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, principally three to seven years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the estimated useful life or the term of the lease. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to current operations and costs related to renewals and improvements that add significantly to the useful life of an asset are capitalized.
     (g) Revenue Recognition
      The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Statement of Position (SOP) 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition. New and renewal software subscription revenue is deferred upon invoicing the customer and is recognized ratably over the term of the subscription agreement. Service revenues are recognized as the related services are performed. Transaction fees are recognized when earned.
     (h) Software Development Costs
      Development costs related to software products for sale are expensed as incurred until technological feasibility of the product has been established in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 86, Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased, or Otherwise Marketed. Based on the Company’s product development process, technological feasibility is established upon completion of a working model. Costs incurred by the Company between completion of the working model and the point at which the product is ready for general release were not significant in 2004 and, accordingly, no costs were capitalized.

F-51

CHROME SYSTEMS CORPORATION
Notes to Financial Statements — (Continued)
      Software development costs incurred for significant improvements or enhancements for software developed for internal use are capitalized in accordance with Statement of Position SOP 98-1, Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use. Capitalized software development costs, which are included in property and equipment totaled $967,737 at December 31, 2004 and are being amortized over 36 months. Accumulated amortization on these software development costs totaled $438,096 at December 31, 2004.
     (i)  Advertising Expenses
      Advertising, promotion, and marketing expenses are charged to expense as incurred. Advertising expenses were $178,827 during the year ended December 31, 2004.
     (j)  Stock-Based Compensation
      The Company accounts for stock-based employee compensation arrangements in accordance with the provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees (APB 25) and complies with the disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation. Under APB 25, compensation expense is based on the difference, if any, on the date of grant between the exercise price of the instrument granted and the fair value of the underlying stock.
      In December 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, Transition and Disclosure. SFAS No. 148 provides alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. In addition, SFAS No. 148 amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, to require prominent disclosures about the method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation and the effect of the method used on reported results. As allowed under SFAS No. 148, the Company will continue to account for stock-based compensation according to APB No. 25. If the Company had accounted for its stock-based compensation plans in accordance with SFAS No. 123, the Company’s net income would approximate the pro forma disclosures below:

      In December 2004, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment, which addresses the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods

or services, with a primary focus on transactions in which an entity obtains employee services in share-based payment transactions. This Statement is a revision to Statement 123 and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and its related implementation guidance. For nonpublic companies, this Statement will require measurement of the cost of employee services received in exchange for stock compensation based on the grant-date fair value of the employee stock options. Incremental compensation costs arising from subsequent modifications of awards after the grant date must be recognized. This Statement will be effective for the Company as of January 1, 2006.
     (k)  Use of Estimates
      The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, including those related to its allowance for doubtful accounts, useful life of property and equipment, income taxes, and commitments and contingencies. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
     (l)  Interim Financial Information
      The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2005 and 2004 and for the periods then ended have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and reflect all material normal recurring adjustments. However, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. In the opinion of management, the consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2005 and 2004 and for the periods then ended included adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the results of the interim periods presented.
(2) Property and Equipment
      Property and equipment consist of the following:
         
Equipment
  $ 3,727,641  
Software licenses
    58,431  
Furniture and fixtures
    523,392  
Leasehold improvements
    186,618  
Capitalized software development costs
    967,737  
       
      5,463,819  
Less accumulated depreciation and amortization
    (4,555,404 )
       
    $ 908,415  
       
      Property and equipment at December 31, 2004 includes equipment with a cost of $221,645 and accumulated depreciation of $221,645 obtained under leases that have been capitalized.
(3) Obligations Under Capital Leases
      The Company leases certain equipment under capital leases. The leases are payable in monthly installments through 2005, with interest ranging from 7% to 29%.

      Future minimum payments required by capital lease obligations at December 31, 2004 are as follows:

Less amounts representing interest

Present value of future minimum lease payments
  $ 12,314  
       
(4) Line of Credit
      On April 25, 2003, the Company entered into a loan and security agreement (the Agreement) with a bank. The agreement provides for a revolving line of credit and other services. Other services consist of letters of credit, foreign exchange services, and cash management services, including merchant services, direct deposit of payroll, a business credit card, and check cashing services. The maximum amount available under the line of credit is $1,000,000, however this is limited to 80% of eligible accounts receivable as defined in the agreement. The amount available for other services is limited to $500,000.
      Interest accrues at a per annum rate equal to the greater of 1.5% points above the Prime Rate, (5.25% at December 31, 2004) or 5.75%. Interest payments are due monthly and the line of credit expires on April 17, 2005, at which time all amounts are immediately payable. The agreement contains quick ratio and minimum tangible net worth covenants and the Company’s tangible and intangible assets secure the balances outstanding. The Company had no borrowings as of December 31, 2004.
(5) Income Taxes
      The Company accounts for income taxes under the provisions of SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. SFAS 109 uses the asset and liability method so that deferred taxes are determined based on the estimated future tax effects of differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities given the provisions of enacted tax laws and tax rates. Deferred income tax expenses or benefits are based on the changes in the financial statement bases versus the tax bases in the Company’s assets or liabilities from period to period.
      At December 31, 2004, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $18,357,000, for both federal and state tax purposes. The federal net operating loss carryforwards expire on various dates through 2022, while the state net operating loss carryforwards expire on various dates through 2017.
      As of December 31, 2004, the Company’s deferred tax assets are comprised primarily of net operating loss carryforwards. There are no significant deferred tax liabilities. The Company believes that, based on a number of factors, there is sufficient uncertainty regarding the realizability of net deferred tax assets such that a full (100%) valuation allowance should be recorded. The net change in total valuation allowance for the year ended December 31, 2004 was a decrease of $751,000. Management will continue to assess the realizability of the tax benefits available to the Company based on actual and forecasted operating results. Ownership changes may significantly limit the utilization of net operating loss carryforwards in the future.
(6) Operating Lease Commitments
      In October of 2002, the Company renewed an operating lease for administrative offices that expires in August 2008. The Company is also obligated under terms of noncancelable operating leases for office

Total
  $ 1,432,083  
       
      Total rent expense for all operating leases amounted to approximately $324,000 in 2004.
(7) Convertible Preferred Stock

In 1999, the Company issued 6,315,788 shares of Series A preferred stock for a price of $0.475 per share. Proceeds, net of issuance costs, amounted to $2,796,981. Certain provisions relating to the Series A and Series B shares are the same unless otherwise noted.
      In the event of any liquidation or sale of the Company, the holders of the Series A and Series B preferred stock will be entitled to receive in preference to the holders of common stock, the amount of $0.475 and $1.71 per share (the Initial Payment), respectively. After the Initial Payment has been made, the holders of the Series B preferred stock and the holders of the common stock shall participate in the distribution of any remaining assets pro rata based on the number of shares they hold (on an as converted basis), provided however, that once the holders of the Series A preferred stock receive an amount equal to $0.475 per share, (in addition to the Initial Payment), the holders of the Series A preferred stock will not participate in any further distributions.
      Each holder of the Series A and Series B preferred stock will have the right, at the option of the holder at any time, to convert shares of preferred stock into shares of common stock at the respective conversion price. The conversion price of the preferred stock is subject to proportional adjustment of stock splits, stock dividends, and the like and for issuance of common stock at a purchase price less than the then effective conversion price. The Series B preferred shareholders also have provisions for adjustments to the conversion price based on costs incurred for certain pending legal matters. As of December 31, 2004, no change to the conversion price adjustment has occurred as a result of these legal matters. The Series B conversion price was reduced to $1.70 as a result of the issuance of Common Stock for professional services during 2001.
      The preferred stock will be automatically converted into common stock in the event of the closing of an underwritten initial public offering of the Company’s common stock (an IPO) with aggregate proceeds of at least $20 million at a public offering price of at least a pre money valuation, fully diluted, of $100 million.
      The holder of a share of preferred stock will be entitled to that number of votes on all matters presented to shareholders equal to the number of shares of common stock then issuable upon conversions of such share of preferred stock.
      The holders of preferred stock will be entitled to receive noncumulative dividends in preference to the holders of common stock at an annual rate of 8% of the Purchase Price per share from legally available funds when, and if declared by the board of directors. The preferred stockholders will not participate in any dividends paid after the preferential dividends.

(8) Warrants
      The Company issued warrants to purchase 1,474,560 shares of common stock for $1 per share to creditors in connection with financing obtained in 2000. 1,456,640 warrants remain outstanding at December 31, 2004, and expire between December 2009 and January 2010.
      In connection with a nonqualified deferred compensation plan that the Company used to sponsor, warrants to purchase 40,288 shares of the Company’s common stock were issued to certain management employees between December 1999 and February of 2000. All warrants remain outstanding at December 31, 2004, have an exercise price of $1.00 per share, and expire in December 2009.
      In 1999 and 2000, in connection with financing obtained, the Company issued warrants to purchase 240,000 and 383,772 shares of common stock for exercise prices of $0.0005 and $1.71 per share, respectively. The warrants remain outstanding at December 31, 2004 and expire in April 2009 and April 2005, respectively.
      The fair value of the warrants was calculated using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model. The fair values were expensed in the period in which services were provided. All expense was recognized prior to 2001.
(9) Employee Stock Option Plan
      The Company has a stock option plan for employees selected by the board of directors under which options to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock are generally granted at a price not less than the market price of the stock as determined by the board of directors at the date of the grant. A maximum of 16,000,000 shares of common stock may be issued under the plan. The options expire in 10 years from the date of issue. If an incentive stock option is granted under the plan to an employee who owns more than 10% of the total stock of the Company, the term of the incentive stock option will not exceed five years, and exercise price shall not be less than 110% of the fair market value of the common stock at the time the incentive stock option is granted. Options issued under the plan are generally subject to a vesting schedule ranging from one to five years and, in limited situations, may be accelerated based on achievement of certain performance requirements. The Company has also issued nonqualified stock options to certain employees, directors, and consultants.
      The following summary presents employee stock option activity and weighted average exercise prices:

(10) Employee Benefit Plan
      The Company has a defined contribution 401(k) profit sharing plan. The profit sharing plan covers substantially all employees who have met certain service and age requirements. Company contributions to this plan are discretionary. Total contributions by the Company to the plan amounted to $64,394 for the year ended December 31, 2004.
(11) Legal Proceedings
      Five former executives have filed a lawsuit against the Company, its former CEO, and its former President. The claims began in the form of charges filed under Title VII and ADEA with the Oregon Bureau of Labor and Industries (BOLI) and the EEOC, but these claims were withdrawn at the request of the claimants. Subsequently, the five former executives as plaintiffs filed a 10-count lawsuit in federal district court in Oregon. The claims asserted in the lawsuit relate to the discharge of the executives.
      In 2001, the district court dismissed plaintiffs claims against the Company for intentional infliction of emotional distress, dismissed all plaintiffs claims against the former CEO and former President, and referred to arbitration all plaintiffs remaining claims against the Company, except their Title VII and corresponding state claims.
      The Company has brought claims against the five former executives for damages related to their conduct while employed by the Company.
      Arbitration commenced in February 2005 and is still pending. The Company intends to vigorously defend the suit and believes it is without merit. The ultimate resolution of this matter could have a material effect on the financial position of the Company and the resolution of the matter could have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. No accrual has been made as management doesn’t believe an amount is currently probable as defined under SFAS No. 5, Accounting for Contingencies.
(12) Subsequent Event
      On April 15, 2005, the parties to the pending legal proceedings described in Note 11 entered into a confidential settlement to fully resolve all claims. The settlement resulted in no net out-of-pocket costs to the Company.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
1 Nature of operations
      dealerAccess Inc. is a wholly owned subsidiary of Bank of Montreal.
      dealerAccess Inc. provides a web-based portal that connects multiple financial institutions, providing financing products, to a network of automotive vehicle dealerships and their customers. Fees for web-based portal transactions are paid by the financial institutions.
2 Going concern
      These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and discharge of obligations in the normal course of business as they come due. No adjustments have been made to assets or liabilities in these consolidated financial statements should the company not be able to continue normal business operations.
      The company’s continuance as a going concern is dependent on obtaining adequate resources through external funding or profitable operations. In the event that such resources are not secured, the assets may not be realized or liabilities discharged at their carrying amounts, and these differences could be material.
      The company has reported successive annual operating losses since inception, resulting in a deficit of $10,966,505 as of October 31, 2003. While management has a plan to increase the volume of web-based portal transactions that it believes will allow the company to achieve profitability and cash flow positive operations and to secure additional external funding (notes 14(b) and (d)), the outcome of these initiatives is uncertain. This condition casts significant doubt as to the ability of the company to continue in business and meet its obligations as they come due. Should the company be unable to continue as a going concern, assets and liabilities would require restatement on a liquidation basis, which would differ materially from the going concern basis.
3 Summary of significant accounting policies
      These consolidated financial statements have been prepared by management in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The more significant policies are as follows:
Basis of consolidation
      These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of dealerAccess Inc., incorporated under the laws of Delaware, United States, and its wholly owned subsidiary, dealerAccess Canada Inc., incorporated under the laws of the Province of Ontario, Canada. The consolidated entity is referred to herein as the company. These consolidated financial statements are expressed in U.S. dollars unless otherwise noted.
Foreign currency translation
      The parent company’s functional currency is the U.S. dollar. Foreign denominated non-monetary assets, liabilities and operating items of the company are measured in U.S. dollars at the exchange rate prevailing at the respective transaction dates. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are measured at exchange rates prevailing on the consolidated balance sheet date.
      The functional currency of the company’s Canadian subsidiary is the Canadian dollar. Accordingly, the Canadian subsidiary’s assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars using the rate of exchange in effect on the consolidated balance sheet date, whereas its revenues, expenses, gains and losses are translated at the average rate of exchange in effect throughout the reporting period. The resulting translation adjustments are included as a separate component of comprehensive loss within shareholder’s deficiency in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

dealerAccess Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements — (Continued)
Use of estimates
      The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Estimates are based on historical experience, where applicable, and other assumptions that management believes are reasonable under the circumstances. Due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making estimates, actual results may differ from those estimates under different assumptions or conditions. Significant estimates that are susceptible to changes in the near term relate to the economic useful lives and impairment of long-lived assets.
Financial instruments
      The fair values of cash, trade accounts receivable, other receivables, bank indebtedness, trade accounts payable and accrued liabilities and due from and to related parties approximate their recorded amounts because of the short period to receipt and payment of cash, respectively.
Cash
      Cash for cash flow purposes consists of cash on deposit with Canadian commercial banks.
Revenue recognition
      The company complies with Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 104, “Revenue Recognition,” and related guidance. SAB No. 104 provides guidance regarding the recognition, presentation and disclosure of revenue in financial statements filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
      Fees for web-based portal transactions and development activities are recognized as services are performed provided that reasonable assurance regarding the measurement of the consideration that will be derived from rendering these services exists and that, at the time of performance, ultimate collection is reasonably assured.
Trade accounts receivable
      The company extends credit to its customers based on an evaluation of each customer’s financial condition and, generally, collateral is not required. Trade accounts receivable are due within 30 days and are stated at amounts due from customers net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. Accounts receivable outstanding longer than contractual payment terms are considered past due. The company determines its allowance by considering a number of factors, including the length of time trade accounts receivable are past due, the company’s previous loss history, the customer’s current ability to pay its obligation to the company and the condition of the general economy and the industry as a whole. The company writes off accounts receivable when they become uncollectible, and payments subsequently received on such receivables are credited to the consolidated statement of operations.
Property, plant and equipment
      Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost less accumulated amortization. Amortization is provided on a straight-line basis over the following terms:
         
Furniture and fixtures
    10 years  
Computer hardware and equipment
    4 to 5 years  
Computer software
    2 to 3 years

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements — (Continued)
Website development costs
      The company accounts for website development costs under Statement of Position 98-1, “Accounting for the Cost of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use,” and Emerging Issues Task Force 00-2, “Web Design Costs.” Internal and external website development costs associated with the preliminary project stage, including determination of the performance requirements, the required technology needed to achieve performance and exploring alternative means of achieving specified performance requirements are expensed. Once the preliminary stage is completed, and management commits to funding, it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will be used for its intended function, direct costs of materials and services consumed in the development or obtaining of internal use software is capitalized, including payroll and payroll-related costs for employees who are directly associated with and who devote time to the project. Website maintenance costs are expensed as incurred.
Impairment of long-lived assets
      The company reviews its long-lived assets for possible impairment when events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the assets may not be recoverable. Assumptions and estimates used in the evaluation of impairment may affect the carrying value of long-lived assets, which could result in impairment charges in future periods. If the total of the undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying value of the asset or asset group, an impairment loss, if any, is recognized as the difference between the estimated fair value and the carrying value of the asset or asset group. Such loss, if any, is included in operations in the period in which this determination is made.
Advertising and promotions
      Advertising and promotion costs are charged to expense in the year incurred.
Comprehensive income (loss)
      Under the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 130, “Reporting Comprehensive Income (Loss),” the company presents comprehensive income (loss), in addition to net income (loss) in the accounts. Comprehensive loss differs from net loss as a result of foreign currency translation adjustments. Cumulative other comprehensive income (loss) is presented in the consolidated statement of shareholder’s deficiency and is comprised of foreign currency translation effects.
Income taxes
      Income taxes are accounted for in accordance SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes.” Under this method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between the financial reporting and income tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the income tax rates and laws currently enacted. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred income tax assets to an amount that is expected more likely than not to be realized.
Stock-based compensation plan
      The company applies SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” together with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” as permitted under SFAS No. 123, in accounting for its stock option plan. Accordingly, the company uses the intrinsic value method to measure the costs associated with the granting of stock options to employees and this cost is accounted for as compensation expense in the consolidated statement of operations over the option vesting period. In accordance with SFAS No. 123, the company discloses the fair values of stock options issued to employees. Fair values of stock options are determined using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model.

      In November 2001, the company entered into a demand revolving credit facility of CA$2,500,000 with Bank of Montreal, its parent company (notes 10 and 14(b)(i)), and a demand reducing credit facility of CA$625,000, both of which were collateralized by a general security agreement covering all assets. The credit facilities also contained certain restrictions and covenants.
      Both facilities bore interest at the Canadian prime lending rate. The effective interest rate for the year ended October 31, 2003 was 4.70%.

8 Additional paid-in capital
      During the year, the company received additional funding for working capital purposes totalling $1,499,112 from its parent company, Bank of Montreal. No additional shares were issued to the parent company and, accordingly, the amount was accounted for as additional paid-in capital.
9 Stock-based compensation plan
      On March 28, 2001, the company granted options to certain executives to purchase 92,361 non-voting, common shares which were exercisable at CA$25.00 per share at various dates ending in March 2008.
      During the year ended October 31, 2002, the company granted options to certain executives to purchase 55,000 non-voting, common shares, which were exercisable at CA$3.25 per share at various dates ending in August 2009.
      During the year ended October 31, 2002, 71,363 options expired or were cancelled.
      In January 2003, the company cancelled 20,998 options. In addition, in October 2003, the company agreed to repurchase the remaining 55,000 options for $35,425 and the stock option plan was terminated.

      For disclosure purposes, the fair value of each stock option granted to employees was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions used for stock options granted in prior years: $nil annual dividends; expected volatility of 40% in 2002 (2001 — minimal); risk-free interest rate of 4.80% in 2002 (2001 — 5.10%) and expected life of three years.
      The Black-Scholes option valuation model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options which have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. In addition, option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected stock price volatility. Because the company’s stock option plan has characteristics significantly different from those of traded options, and because a change in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, the existing

models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of the company’s employee stock options.

b)     Legal dispute
      The company was party to a software development agreement with a third party developer. Pursuant to the agreement, the third party developer: (i) licensed certain rights in and to its intellectual property; (ii) was engaged to perform certain software development activities; and (iii) had right of first refusal to provide additional services.
      In March 2003, the company notified the third party developer of the company’s intention to terminate the software development agreement pursuant to the terms of the agreement.
      Upon receiving the termination notice, the third party developer advanced claims against the company for monies supposedly owed related to software development activities and additional services in the amount of $1,767,089, plus interest and all taxes. In addition, until such amounts are paid, the third party developer is claiming that the company has no rights to the use of the company’s licensed intellectual property.
      In management’s opinion, all amounts owing to the third party developer under the software development agreement were paid and, as such, the company owns all intellectual property rights in and to the software developed by the third party developer. In addition, management believes that the company has all licensed rights in and to the intellectual property of the third party developer, pursuant to the software development agreement.
      Settlement, if any, concerning this contingency will be recorded in the consolidated statement of operations in the year in which the settlement occurs.
c)     Retail sales tax
      The Ontario Ministry of Finance (the Ministry) has conducted a retail sales tax field audit on the company’s financial records for the period from March 1, 2001 through to May 31, 2003. A preliminary assessment totalling approximately $148,000, plus interest and penalties from the taxing authority, has been submitted to the company indicating unpaid Ontario retail sales tax. Management has undertaken a review of the Ministry’s preliminary assessment and believes that no amounts of Ontario retail sales tax are unpaid.
      Settlement, if any, concerning this contingency will be recorded in the consolidated statement of operations in the year in which the settlement occurs.
13 Segment information
      The company operates in one industry segment: financial services technology solutions for financial institutions, providing financing products, to a network of automotive vehicle dealerships and their customers.
      The company operates in one geographic segment: Canada.
      Approximately 73% of the company’s total fees during 2003 was derived from its related parties, Bank of Montreal and financiaLinx Corporation. In addition, one other customer comprised approximately 20% of the company’s total revenue during 2003.
14 Subsequent events
a)     Increase in bank indebtedness
      In November 2003, the company obtained an increase in its demand revolving credit facility with Bank of Montreal, its parent company, from CA$2,500,000 to CA$3,000,000 and subsequently fully utilized the increased facility.

b)     Capital stock purchase
      On January 1, 2004, DealerTrack Holdings, Inc. acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of dealerAccess Inc. The purchase price totalled $3,106,288, including legal fees of $221,373.
      The purchase will be accounted for by using push-down accounting with the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired being treated as goodwill. The purchase price allocation is estimated as follows:
         
    $
     
Net tangible assets acquired
    383,411  
Intangible assets acquired
    1,976,942  
Goodwill
    745,935  
       
      3,106,288  
       
      As part of the closing, the following occurred:
        i) As of December 31, 2003, the demand revolving credit facility (CA$3,000,000) and the demand reducing credit facility (CA$100,000) were repaid in full by the company and these facilities were terminated. The funds required to repay the demand revolving credit facility were advanced by DealerTrack Holdings, Inc. as part of the purchase price and treated as additional paid-in capital. The funds required to repay the demand reducing credit facility were also advanced by DealerTrack Holdings, Inc. and treated as a related party liability with no specific repayment terms.
 
        ii) The purchaser, DealerTrack Holdings, Inc., will be entitled to a purchase price adjustment, not to exceed $1,212,397, should certain portal transaction volume requirements over a three-year period not be met by Bank of Montreal, the selling shareholder, and financiaLinx Corporation, an affiliate of both the company and Bank of Montreal. The purchase price adjustment, if any, will be recorded in the consolidated balance sheet as a reduction to goodwill in the year in which the amount is determined.
 
        iii) The seller, Bank of Montreal, indemnified the acquirer, DealerTrack Holdings, Inc., for those contingencies identified in notes 12(b) and (c).
c)     Reverse stock split
      On January 1, 2004, a reverse stock split (1 common share for every 193 common shares issued and outstanding) was approved by the company’s board of directors, resulting in 5,182 issued and outstanding common shares.
d)     Additional funding
      The company received additional funds in the amount of $825,000 from its new parent company, DealerTrack Holdings, Inc.: $400,000 in January 2004; $275,000 in April 2004; $150,000 in March 2005; and $100,000 in April 2005. These amounts are non-interest bearing and unsecured.

Report of Independent Auditors
To the Stockholders and Board of Directors of

      In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and the related consolidated statements of operations, of stockholders’ equity (deficit), and of cash flows present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of LLDG Operating Company (formerly known as Lease Marketing, Ltd) and its subsidiaries at July 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the period from January 1, 2004 to July 31, 2004 and the year ended December 31, 2003 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
      As discussed in Note 3, the Company restated its retained earnings (accumulated deficit) at December 31, 2002, previously reported on by other auditors to correct the accounting for transfer of payment streams and to correct the prior accounting for certain acquisitions.

LLDG OPERATING COMPANY (fka “Lease Marketing, Ltd.”)
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
July 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003
1.  The Company and Basis of Presentation
      LLDG Operating Company was incorporated on September 12, 1988 in the State of Illinois. The Company’s primary business is the licensing of software, and the leasing of the computer equipment to run the software, to the automotive industry. The Company has a nationwide customer base in the United States.
      Effective August 4, 2004, the Company changed its name from Lease Marketing, Ltd to LLDG Operating Company.
      The consolidated financial statements present the Company as of and for the seven month period ended July 31, 2004 and the year ended December 31, 2003.
      The Company’s financial statements have been presented on the basis that it is a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company incurred a net loss for the year ended December 31, 2003 of $758,379. As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company’s current liabilities exceeded its current assets by $30,720,204 and $32,025,925 at July 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003, respectively. The Company had a net stockholders’ deficit of $41,244,855 and $41,978,833 at July 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003, respectively.
      On August 1, 2004, the Company sold substantially all of its assets and liabilities for proceeds of $12.8 million. As a result of the sale, the financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis.
2.  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
  Principles of Consolidation
      The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of LLDG Operating Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries since their acquisition dates. The subsidiaries include LML Systems, Inc, a company whose primary business is also the licensing of leasing software to the automotive industry; Superior Programming, Inc, whose primary business is providing software related products to the automotive industry; Wizard Asset Acquisition, LLC, whose primary business is also providing software related products to the automotive industry, Lease Marketing, LLC, LML Stock Acquisition Co. and LML Asset Acquisition, LLC.
  Cash and Cash Equivalents
      Cash and cash equivalents include all highly liquid debt instruments with original maturities of three months or less.
  Allowance for uncollectible receivables
      An allowance for uncollectible trade receivables is recorded based on a combination of write-off history, ageing analysis, and any specific, known, troubled accounts.
Property and Equipment
      Property and Equipment is recorded at cost, less accumulated depreciation and depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the asset as follows:
     
Leasehold improvements
  Shorter of useful life or lease term
Computer equipment
  3 years
Furniture and fixtures
  7 – 10 years
Computer software
  3 – 4 years

July 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003
      Upon retirement or sale, the costs of the assets disposed of and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is included in current period results. Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment when events or change in business circumstances indicate that carrying value may not be reasonable. Recoverability of these assets is determined by comparing the forecasted undiscounted cash flows generated by those assets to their net carrying value. The amount of impairment loss, if any, will generally be measured by the difference between the net book value of the assets and the estimated fair value of the related assets.
  Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
      Effective January 1, 2002, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (“SFAS”) No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets,” whereby goodwill was no longer to be amortized, but instead was to be tested for impairment annually or more frequently if an event or circumstance indicates that an impairment loss may have been incurred. The Company estimates fair value by considering a number of factors including assessing operating results, business plans, economic projections, anticipated future cash flows and market data.
  Capitalized Equipment Costs
      The Company may supply computer equipment to customers as part of arrangements to operate its software. Such equipment is not specific to each customer and, accordingly, the equipment is accounted for as a service arrangement, rather than a leasing arrangement in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force 01-08, “Determining Whether an Arrangement Contains a Lease”. The equipment provided is recorded at cost and depreciated, using the straight-line method, over the life of the arrangements.
      The carrying value of the equipment is disclosed net of accumulated depreciation.
  Software Development Costs
      In accordance with SFAS No. 86, “Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased or Otherwise Marketed”, initial costs are charged to operations as research prior to the development of a detailed program design or a working model. Thereafter, the Company capitalizes the direct costs and allocated overhead associated with the development of software products. Costs incurred subsequent to the product release are charged to operations.
      Capitalized software development costs are amortized annually by the greater of the ratio of current revenues to the current and anticipated future gross revenues of the product or using the straight-line method over the remaining estimated economic life of the product, currently over the estimated product life of 3 – 4 years on a straight-line basis. Unamortized costs are carried at the lower of book value or net realizable value.
Revenue Recognition
      The Company’s revenue is derived primarily from the provision of fixed term software licenses to automobile dealerships and financial institutions. In addition, the Company may lease computer equipment necessary to run the Company’s software. The customer pays a single monthly fee which may include payment for the licensing of the software, supply of the equipment, installation of the equipment and updates of the software. The agreements are normally for 37 months, and require a security deposit at the inception of the agreement. In addition, customers are required to pay applicable taxes and maintain appropriate insurance on the equipment. Ownership of the software and equipment always remains with the Company. At the termination of the agreement, the software and equipment are returned to the Company.

July 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003
      Software license arrangements include post contract customer support over the life of the arrangement. Revenue is recognized ratably over the life of the arrangement coincident with service delivery, net of the amortization of competitor buyout costs.
      The Company may supply computer equipment to customers as part of arrangements to operate its software. Such equipment is not specific to each customer and accordingly, the provision of equipment is accounted for as a service arrangement, rather than a leasing arrangement. Revenue from the provision of equipment is recognized ratably over the life of the arrangement.
      Subsequent to execution of the arrangement with the customer, the Company may transfer the rights to the payment streams under the leasing and licensing arrangement (collectively referred to as the “customer contract”) to financial institutions at a discount. Proceeds received by the Company upon the transfer are recorded as finance contracts payable.
  Cost of sales
      The Company includes depreciation of capitalized equipment, amortization of installation costs and shipping fees as cost of sales.
  Income Taxes
      The Company, with the consent of its stockholders, has elected under the Internal Revenue Code to be treated as an S corporation. In lieu of corporate income taxes, the stockholder of an S corporation is taxed on their proportionate share of the Company’s taxable income. Therefore, no provision or liability for federal income taxes has been included in these financial statements.
  Fair Value of Financial Instruments
      The carrying value of the Company’s financial instruments which includes cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments. The estimated fair values of the Company’s debt, including finance contracts payable, approximates its carrying value as of July 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003.
  Use of Estimates
      The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Advertising
      Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising expense for the seven month period ended July 31, 2004 and year ended December 31, 2003 was $35,119 and $171,464, respectively.
  Other Comprehensive Income
      The Company had no other comprehensive income for all periods reported.

3.  Restatement
      The Company’s retained earnings at December 31, 2002 were restated to correct the accounting related to the transfer of payment streams and also to correct the prior accounting for certain acquisitions.
Transfer of payment streams
      The Company transfers the rights to the payment streams of some of their customer contracts to financial institutions at a discount. Previously, the Company had recorded the proceeds of such transfers as revenue at the time of transfer, net of the estimated costs of servicing the arrangements. The estimated costs of servicing were deferred and recognized ratably over the life of the arrangement. The Company also previously recorded, upon the transfer of the payment streams, an expense for equipment, competitor buyout and installation costs associated with the payment streams transferred.
      The Company has since determined that the transfer of the rights to the payment streams should be recorded as collateralized borrowings and not as revenue. Proceeds previously received upon the transfer of the payment streams which were recorded as revenue were restated to record such amounts as finance contracts payable. An adjustment of approximately $53 million was recorded to retained earnings at December 31, 2002 to record, as finance contracts payable, the remaining principle and interest balance outstanding on that date. Deferred revenue of approximately $2 million related to payment streams previously transferred was also reversed through an adjustment to retained earnings at December 31, 2002.
      Costs previously written off were also capitalized to the extent service delivery over the life of the arrangement had not yet taken place. The costs of approximately $9 million will be amortized, using the straight-line method, over the life of the arrangements.
Purchase price allocation
      On May 29, 2000, the Company purchased substantially all of the assets of Superior Programming for $4.7 million. On January 3, 2001, the Company purchased substantially all of the assets of Diamond Technology for $1.3 million. The aggregate purchase price of $6 million for the acquisitions was allocated primarily to goodwill ($4.9 million) with the remaining amounts allocated to capitalized software ($1 million) and net tangible assets ($0.1 million).
      The Company has since determined that the prior year allocations did not comply with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 16, “Business Combinations” and subsequently SFAS No. 141, “Business Combinations” and SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets”. This resulted in an overstatement of goodwill and understatement of capitalized software as recorded by the Company at December 31, 2002. In preparing the 2003 financial statements, the Company corrected the errors made in the original allocation of the purchase price for the two acquisitions. The restated purchase price allocation resulted in capitalized software of $2.2 million, $3.7 million of goodwill and $0.1 million of net tangible assets.

      As discussed in Note 9, the Company transfers the payment streams to some of its customer contracts to financial institutions. Currently, the Company utilizes several financial institutions to fund agreements. Should the Company not be able to fund agreements with these investors, it could adversely impact the Company’s financial position.

      The Company received loans from its stockholders. These loans have no fixed repayment schedule and no set rate of interest due. The effective rate of interest applied was 7.6%.
      The amounts due under the above loans at July 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003 were $2,095,000 and $1,425,000 respectively. Interest expense for the seven month period ended July 31, 2004 and year ended December 31, 2003 was $105,000 and $0 respectively.

Contingencies
      The Company is also subject to various claims and legal proceedings covering a wide range of matters that may arise in the ordinary course of business. Specifically, the Company is subject to claims of $1,126,987 for alleged breach of contract and $238,150 for past due fees for services. No amount has been accrued as the Company believes an adverse outcome is currently neither probable, nor estimable.
      Management believes the resolutions of these and other claims and pending litigation will not have a material effect, individually or in the aggregate, to the financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
Lease agreements
As lessee

Item 14. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
      We are incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware. Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law provides that a Delaware corporation may indemnify directors and officers as well as other employees and individuals against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines, and amounts paid in settlement in connection with specified actions, suits and proceedings, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than action by or in the right of the corporation — a “derivative action”), if they acted in good faith and in a manner they reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe their conduct was unlawful. A similar standard is applicable in the case of derivative actions, except that indemnification only extends to expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred in connection with the defense or settlement of such action, and the statute requires court approval before there can be any indemnification where the person seeking indemnification has been found liable to the corporation. The statute provides that it is not exclusive of other indemnification that may be granted by a corporation’s certificate of incorporation, by-laws, disinterested director vote, stockholder vote, agreement, or otherwise.
      The Delaware General Corporation Law further authorizes a Delaware corporation to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or enterprise, against any liability asserted against him and incurred by him in any such capacity, arising out of his status as such, whether or not the corporation would otherwise have the power to indemnify him under Section 145.
      Our fifth amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated by-laws, which will take effect immediately prior to the completion of this offering, provide for the indemnification of our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted under Delaware law. Acting pursuant to the foregoing, we have entered into agreements with each of our directors and officers to indemnify them to the fullest extent permitted by our restated certificate of incorporation, amended and restated by-laws and Delaware law.
      In addition, we have entered into indemnification agreements (the “Indemnification Agreements”) with some of our directors and officers. The Indemnification Agreements (i) confirm to officers and directors the indemnification provided to them in the Amended and Restated By-laws, (ii) provide officers and directors

with procedural protections in the event that they are sued in their capacity as director or officer and (iii) provide additional indemnification rights.
      We have purchased insurance on behalf of our respective directors and officers against certain liabilities that may be asserted against, or incurred by, such persons in their capacities as our directors or officers, or that may arise out of their status as our directors or officers, including liabilities under the federal and state securities laws.
Item 15. Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities.
      In the preceding three years, the registrant has sold and issued the following securities that were not registered under the Securities Act:
        1. On April 22, 2002, the registrant sold 2,119,851 shares of series C-1 preferred stock to GRP II, L.P., GRP II Partners, L.P. and GRP II Investors, L.P. for a purchase price of $3.5380 per share for total proceeds of $7,500,000.
 
        2. On December 4, 2002, the registrant sold 139,924 shares of series C-2 preferred stock to its management and directors for a purchase price of $3.5380 per share for total proceeds of $500,000.
 
        3. On March 19, 2003, in connection with the acquisition of Credit Online, Inc., the registrant issued 4,449,856 and 1,483,285 shares of series A-2 preferred stock and series C-3 preferred stock, respectively, in exchange for all of the outstanding capital stock of Credit Online, Inc.
 
        4. On May 26, 2005, we issued 87,000 shares of restricted stock to our directors, officers and certain employees.
      In addition, since January 1, 2002 we have granted 4,735,403 options to our directors, officers, employees, and an independent consultant. On various dates between January 1, 2002 and May 31, 2005, we sold 670,604 shares of our common stock to directors, officers, employees and an independent consultant pursuant to the exercise of options granted under our 2001 Stock Option Plan. The exercise prices per share ranged from $2.80 to $8.00, for aggregate consideration of $1,650,321.
      The share numbers and prices above have been adjusted to reflect the 1-for-8 reverse stock split of the registrant’s common stock effected on March 19, 2003.
      The sales and issuances of securities in the transactions described in items 1, 2 and 3 above were determined to be exempt from registration under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and Rule 506 of Regulation D thereunder as transactions by an issuer not involving a public offering. The sales and issuances of securities listed above in item 4 and the stock options granted since January 1, 2002 were deemed to be exempt from registration under the Securities Act in reliance on Rule 701 promulgated under Section 3(b) of the Securities Act as transactions pursuant to compensatory benefit plans and contracts relating to compensation. The recipients of securities in each such transaction represented their intention to acquire the securities for investment only and not with a view to or for sale in connection with any distribution thereof and appropriate legends were affixed to the share certificates and other instruments issued in such transactions. All recipients either received adequate information about us or had access, through employment or other relationships, to such information. There were no underwriters employed in connection with any of the transactions set forth in this Item 15 other than Robertson Stephens, Inc. in connection with Item 1 above. All of the foregoing securities are deemed restricted securities for purposes of the Securities Act.

Item 17. Undertakings
      The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
        (1) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this registration statement as of the time it was declared effective.
 
        (2) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offering therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
 
        (3) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrants have been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

(iii) No dividends shall be declared or paid on any shares of Common Stock unless and until (A) all accrued and unpaid dividends declared but unpaid on the Designated Preferred Stock have been paid and (B) a like dividend has been declared and paid on the Designated Preferred Stock. No dividends shall be declared or paid on any shares of Series A Preferred Stock, Series A-1 Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, Series B-1 Preferred Stock or any other share of Preferred Stock (other than the Series C Preferred Stock, Series C-1 Preferred Stock and Series C-2 Preferred Stock) unless and until all accrued and unpaid dividends declared but unpaid on the Series C Preferred Stock, Series C-1 Preferred Stock and Series C-2 Preferred Stock have been paid.

(b) LIQUIDITY EVENT. Subject to Section 4.1(a)(v): (i) Upon the occurrence of a Liquidity Event, the holders of the Series C Preferred Stock, Series C-1 Preferred Stock, Series C-2 Preferred Stock and Series C-3 Preferred Stock shall first be entitled, before any distribution or payment is made upon any shares of Common Stock, the Series A Preferred Stock, the Series A-1 Preferred Stock, the Series A-2 Preferred Stock, the Series B Preferred Stock, the Series B-1 Preferred Stock or any other capital stock of the Corporation ranking on liquidation junior to the Series C Preferred Stock, the Series C-1 3 Preferred Stock, the Series C-2 Preferred Stock and the Series C-3 Preferred Stock in the case of each share of Series C Preferred Stock, Series C-1 Preferred Stock, Series C-2 Preferred Stock and Series C-3 Preferred Stock, to an amount equal to the Standard Liquidation Preference (such amount payable with respect to all shares of Series C Preferred Stock, Series C-1 Preferred Stock, Series C-2 Preferred Stock and Series C-3 Preferred Stock being sometimes referred to collectively as the "Series C Liquidation Preference Payments"). If upon a Liquidity Event, the assets to be distributed among the holders of Series C Preferred Stock, Series C-1 Preferred Stock, Series C-2 Preferred Stock and Series C-3 Preferred Stock shall be insufficient to permit payment in full of the Series C Liquidation Preference Payments to the holders of Series C Preferred Stock, Series C-1 Preferred Stock, Series C-2 Preferred Stock and Series C-3 Preferred Stock, then the entire assets of the Corporation to be so distributed shall be distributed ratably among the holders of Series C Preferred Stock, Series C-1 Preferred Stock, Series C-2 Preferred Stock and Series C-3 Preferred Stock in proportion to the Series C Liquidation Preference Payments which would otherwise be payable to such holders. (ii) Upon the occurrence of a Liquidity Event and after the payments pursuant to Section 4.1(b)(i) above shall have been made in full, the holders of Series B Preferred Stock and Series B-1 Preferred Stock shall first be entitled, before any distribution or payment is made upon any shares of Common Stock, Series A Preferred Stock, Series A-1 Preferred Stock, Series A-2 Preferred Stock or any other capital stock of the Corporation ranking on liquidation junior to the Series B Preferred Stock and Series B-1 Preferred Stock in the case of each share of Series B Preferred Stock and Series B-1 Preferred Stock, to an amount equal to either (A) the Standard Liquidation Preference or (B) the Alternative Liquidation Preference. The holders of Series B Preferred Stock and Series B-1 Preferred Stock shall receive the Standard Liquidation Preference unless the sum of the Alternative Liquidation Preference plus any amounts to which such holders would be entitled under Section 4.1(b)(iv) would be greater than the Standard Liquidation Preference. The Standard Liquidation Preference or the Alternative Liquidation Preference, as applicable, payable with respect to all shares of Series B Preferred Stock and Series B- 1 Preferred Stock is sometimes referred to collectively as the "Series B Liquidation Preference Payments". If upon a Liquidity Event and following all payments required by Section 4.1(b)(i) above, the assets to be distributed among the holders of Series B Preferred Stock and Series B-1 Preferred Stock shall be insufficient to permit payment in full of the Series B Liquidation Preference Payments to the holders of Series B Preferred Stock and Series B-1 Preferred Stock , then the entire remaining assets of the Corporation to be so distributed shall be distributed ratably among the holders of Series B Preferred Stock and Series B-1 Preferred Stock in proportion to the Series B Liquidation Preference Payments which would otherwise be payable to such holders. (iii) Upon the occurrence of a Liquidity Event and after the payments pursuant to Section 4.1(b)(i) and (ii) above shall have been made in full, the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock, Series A-1 Preferred Stock and Series A-2 Preferred Stock shall be entitled before any distribution or payment is made 4 upon any shares of Common Stock or any other capital stock of the Corporation ranking on liquidation junior to the Series A Preferred Stock, Series A-1 Preferred Stock and Series A-2 Preferred Stock in the case of each share of Series A Preferred Stock, Series A-1 Preferred Stock and Series A-2 Preferred Stock, an amount equal to either (A) the Standard Liquidation Preference or (B) the Alternative Liquidation Preference. The holders of Series A Preferred Stock, Series A-1 Preferred Stock and Series A-2 Preferred Stock shall receive the Standard Liquidation Preference unless the sum of the Alternative Liquidation Preference plus any amounts to which such holders would be entitled under Section 4.1(b)(iv) would be greater than the Standard Liquidation Preference. The Standard Liquidation Preference or Alternative Liquidation Preference, as applicable, payable with respect to all shares of Series A Preferred Stock, Series A-1 Preferred Stock and Series A-2 Preferred Stock is sometimes referred to collectively as the "Series A Liquidation Preference Payments" and, collectively with the Series B Liquidation Preference Payments and the Series C Liquidation Preference Payments, the "Liquidation Preference Payments"). If upon a Liquidity Event and following all payments required by Section 4.1(b)(i) and (ii) above, the assets to be distributed among the holders of Series A Preferred Stock, Series A-1 Preferred Stock and Series A-2 Preferred Stock shall be insufficient to permit payment in full of the Series A Liquidation Preference Payments to the holders of Series A Preferred Stock, Series A-1 Preferred Stock and Series A-2 Preferred Stock, then the entire remaining assets of the Corporation to be so distributed shall be distributed ratably among the holders of Series A Preferred Stock, Series A-1 Preferred Stock and Series A-2 Preferred Stock in proportion to the Series A Liquidation Preference Payments which would otherwise be payable to such holders. (iv) After payment of the aggregate Liquidation Preference Payments pursuant to Sections 4.1(b)(i), (ii) and (iii) above shall have been made in full, the remaining assets of the Corporation available for distribution shall be distributed ratably among only those holders of Designated Preferred Stock who received payment of the Alternative Liquidation Preference pursuant to clauses (ii) and/or (iii) above (on an as-converted basis pursuant to Section 4.1 (d)) and the holders of Common Stock. (v) Written notice of such Liquidity Event, stating a payment date, the amount of the Liquidation Preference Payments and the place where said Liquidation Preference Payments shall be payable, shall be delivered in person, mailed by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, or sent by telecopier or telex, not less than twenty (20) days prior to the payment date stated therein, to the holders of record of the Designated Preferred Stock. Such notice shall be addressed to each such holder at its address as shown by the records of the Corporation. 5 (c) VOTING RIGHTS. (i) In addition to the rights provided by applicable law, this Fourth Restated Certificate of Incorporation (this "Restated Certificate"), the Stockholders' Agreement or in the By-Laws, each share of Designated Preferred Stock shall entitle the holder thereof to such number of votes as shall equal the number of shares of Common Stock as is determined by dividing (A) the Voting Cost by (B) the Conversion Price, determined as hereinafter provided, at the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to vote or, if no record date is established, at the date such vote is taken. Except as provided in Section 4.1(c)(ii) below, the holders of Designated Preferred Stock shall be entitled to vote on all matters as to which holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to vote, in the same manner and with the same effect as such holders of Common Stock, voting together with the holders of Common Stock as one class on all such matters. (ii) Without the affirmative consent or approval of the Requisite Designated Preferred Stockholders, voting separately as a class, the Corporation shall not, and the Corporation shall not approve or cause any Subsidiary to take any action which would, as applicable: (A) approve or authorize the payment, or the setting aside for payment, of any dividend or other distribution upon (1) shares of Common Stock or any other security of the Corporation junior or pari passu in liquidation or dividend preference to the Series C Preferred Stock, Series C-1 Preferred Stock, Series C-2 Preferred Stock and Series C-3 Preferred Stock, and (2) shares of the capital stock of any Subsidiary (other than any such dividends or distributions payable solely to the Corporation);

provided, however, that such affirmative consent or approval of the Requisite Designated Preferred 6 Stockholders is not necessary with respect to (1) the grant of stock options with respect to Common Stock (the issuance of which was approved by the Board) pursuant to the Stock Option Plan to officers, directors, employees, and /or consultants of the Corporation or its Subsidiaries or (2) the issuance of up to 1,632,625 shares (as adjusted for stock dividends, stock splits and the like other than the reverse stock split effected hereby) of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of such stock options granted pursuant to the Stock Option Plan; (C) approve or authorize the redemption or repurchase of any shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock of the Corporation or the securities of any Subsidiary, other than (1) pursuant to agreements with directors, employees or consultants of the Corporation or Subsidiary, as the case may be, under which the Corporation or a Subsidiary has the option to repurchase such shares upon termination of employment or service and (2) pursuant to rights of first refusal set forth in the Stockholders' Agreement; (D) in any manner alter or change the terms, rights, designations, powers, preferences or relative, participating, optional or other special rights, or the qualifications, limitations or restrictions, (1) of one or more series of Designated Preferred Stock, in a manner adverse to the holders thereof, or (2) of the capital stock of any Subsidiary;

(G) cause a Liquidity Event with respect to the Corporation or any Subsidiaries (as such term is applied mutatis mutandis to the Subsidiaries); (H) increase or decrease the size of the Board or alter the mechanism for selecting the members of the Board of the Corporation or of any Subsidiary (in each case, as set forth in the Stockholders' Agreement); (I) issue any shares of Common Stock (whether upon the exercise of stock options, pursuant to stock purchase agreements or otherwise) to officers, directors, employees or consultants of the Corporation or its Subsidiaries at an effective price per share of less than $2.80 (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends and the like other than the reverse stock split effected hereby) considering all cash and the cash value of all non-cash consideration payable for any such shares; 7 (J) effect the registration under the Securities Act of any class of securities of any Subsidiary of the Corporation; (K) create a new Subsidiary or take any action through a Subsidiary that would otherwise require approval pursuant to the foregoing;

or (M) enter into an agreement to do any of the foregoing. (iii) Without the affirmative consent or approval of the holders of a majority of the Series C Preferred Stock, Series C-1 Preferred Stock, Series C-2 Preferred Stock and Series C-3 Preferred Stock (together, the "Designated Series C Preferred Stock"), voting together as one (1) class, the Corporation shall not, and the Corporation shall not approve or cause any Subsidiary to take any action which would, as applicable: (A) in any manner authorize, create, designate, issue or sell (by reclassification or otherwise) any additional shares of any series of Designated Series C Preferred Stock (including any shares of treasury stock) or (x) rights, options, warrants or other securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for, or (y) any debt security which by its terms is convertible into or exchangeable for, or (z) any agreement, instrument or contractual right, whether or not vested or immediately exercisable (including but not limited to phantom stock or stock appreciation rights) which entitles the holder thereof to receive any additional shares of any series of Designated Series C Preferred Stock; provided, however, that such affirmative consent or approval of the holders of a majority of the Designated Series C Preferred Stock is not necessary with respect to (1) securities issued as a stock dividend or upon any stock split or other subdivision or combination of shares of capital stock; and (2) the 1,483,285 shares of Series C-3 Preferred Stock to be issued pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreements; or (B) cause or authorize a Liquidity Event with respect to the Corporation or any Subsidiaries (as such term is applied mutatis mutandis to the Subsidiaries), where holders of different classes of Designated Preferred Stock will not receive the same type of consideration in exchange for their shares of each such class or series of Designated Preferred Stock. (d) CONVERSION. (i) Upon the terms set forth in this Section 4.1(d), by surrender of a certificate or certificates representing the shares to be converted pursuant hereto, 8 each holder of each share of Designated Preferred Stock shall have the right, at such holder's option, at any time and from time to time, to convert all or any part of such shares held by it into the number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock (per share of Designated Preferred Stock) equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (A) the Series A Preferred Preference Amount, Series A-1 Preferred Preference Amount, Series A-2 Preferred Preference Amount, Series B Preferred Preference Amount, Series B-1 Preferred Preference Amount, Series C Preferred Preference Amount, Series C-1 Preferred Preference Amount, Series C-2 Preferred Preference Amount or Series C-3 Preferred Preference Amount, as the case may be, by (B) the "Conversion Price" as last adjusted and then in effect for each such share (at any time, the "Conversion Rates"). As of the COL Closing Date, the initial "Conversion Price" per share at which shares of Common Stock shall be issuable upon conversion of shares of Designated Preferred Stock shall be the Conversion Cost, respectively; provided, however, that the Conversion Price in effect from time to time for each series of Designated Preferred Stock shall be subject to adjustment as provided in Section 4.1(e) below. The holder of any shares of Designated Preferred Stock may exercise the conversion right pursuant to this Section 4.1(d)(i) by delivering to the Corporation a certificate for the shares to be converted, duly endorsed or assigned in blank or to the Corporation (if required by it), accompanied by written notice stating that the holder elects to convert such shares and stating the name or names (with address) in which the certificate or certificates for the shares of Common Stock are to be issued. Conversion shall be deemed to have been effected on the date when such delivery is made or immediately prior to the consummation of a Qualified Public Offering as provided below, if applicable (the "Conversion Date"). (ii) Upon the terms set forth in this Section 4.1(d), immediately prior to the consummation of a Qualified Public Offering, each share of Designated Preferred Stock shall automatically be converted at the applicable Conversion Rate into fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock. (iii) As promptly as practicable after the conversion of any shares of Designated Preferred Stock into Common Stock under Sections 4.1(d)(i) or (ii) above, the Corporation shall issue and deliver to or upon the written order of such holder, to the place designated by such holder, a certificate or certificates for the number of full shares of Common Stock to which such holder is entitled, and a cash amount in respect of any fractional interest in a share of Common Stock as provided in Section 4.1(d)(iv) below. The person in whose name the certificate or certificates for Common Stock are to be issued shall be deemed to have become a stockholder of record on the applicable Conversion Date unless the transfer books of the Corporation are closed on that date, in which event such person shall be deemed to have become a stockholder of record on the next succeeding date on which the transfer books are open, but the Conversion Price shall be that in effect on the Conversion Date, and the rights of the holder of the shares of Designated Preferred Stock so converted shall cease on such Conversion Date. Upon conversion of only a portion of the number of shares covered by a certificate representing shares of Designated Preferred Stock surrendered for conversion, the 9 Corporation shall issue and deliver to or upon the written order of the holder of the certificate so surrendered for conversion, at the expense of the Corporation, a new certificate covering the number of shares of Designated Preferred Stock representing the unconverted portion of the certificate so surrendered. (iv) No fractional shares of Common Stock or scrip shall be issued upon conversion of shares of Designated Preferred Stock. The number of full shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Designated Preferred Stock shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate number of shares of such Designated Preferred Stock to be converted. Instead of any fractional shares of Common Stock which would otherwise be issuable upon conversion of any such shares, the Corporation shall pay a cash adjustment in respect of such fractional interest in an amount equal to the product of (A) the price of one (1) share of Common Stock as determined in good faith by the Board and (B) such fractional interest. The holders of fractional interests shall not be entitled to any rights as stockholders of the Corporation in respect of such fractional interests. (e) ADJUSTMENTS TO CONVERSION PRICE. The Conversion Price for each series of Designated Preferred Stock shall be subject to adjustment from time to time after the COL Closing Date as follows: (i) If the Corporation shall, at any time or from time to time after the COL Closing Date, issue or be deemed to have issued any shares of Common Stock, Common Stock Equivalents or options to purchase or rights to subscribe for Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents, other than Excluded Stock, without consideration or for a consideration per share less than the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the issuance of such securities ("Additional Shares"), then such Conversion Price as in effect immediately prior to each such issuance, shall forthwith be lowered to a price equal to the quotient obtained by dividing: (A) an amount equal to the sum of (x) the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (determined on a Fully Diluted Basis) immediately prior to such issuance of Additional Shares, multiplied by the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such issuance of Additional Shares, and (y) the consideration received by the Corporation upon such issuance; by (B) an amount equal to the sum of (x) the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding (determined on a Fully Diluted Basis) immediately prior to such issuance of Additional Shares and (y) the total number of Additional Shares issued in such issuance. (ii) For the purposes of any adjustment of a Conversion Price pursuant to Section 4.1(e)(i) above, the following provisions shall be applicable: 10 (A) In the case of the issuance of Common Stock for cash in a public offering or private placement, the consideration shall be deemed to be the amount of cash paid therefor before deducting therefrom any discounts, commissions or placement fees payable by the Corporation to any underwriter or placement agent in connection with the issuance and sale thereof. (B) In the case of the issuance of Common Stock for consideration in whole or in part other than cash, the consideration other than cash shall be deemed to be the fair market value thereof as determined in good faith by the Board, irrespective of any accounting treatment. (C) In the case of the issuance of options to purchase or rights to subscribe for Common Stock, securities by their terms convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock, or options to purchase or rights to subscribe for such convertible or exchangeable securities except, in each case, with respect to Excluded Stock: (1) the aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon exercise of such options to purchase or rights to subscribe for Common Stock shall be deemed to have been issued at the time such options or rights were issued and for a consideration equal to the consideration (determined in the manner provided in subdivisions (A) and (B) above), if any, received by the Corporation upon the issuance of such options or rights plus the minimum purchase price provided in such options or rights for the Common Stock covered thereby; (2) the aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion of or in exchange for any such convertible or exchangeable securities or upon the exercise of options to purchase or rights to subscribe for such convertible or exchangeable securities and subsequent conversion or exchange thereof shall be deemed to have been issued at the time such securities, options, or rights were issued and for a consideration equal to the consideration received by the Corporation for any such securities and related options or rights (excluding any cash received on account of accrued interest or accrued dividends), plus the additional consideration, if any, to be received by the Corporation upon the conversion or exchange of such securities or the exercise of any related options or rights (the consideration in each case to be determined in the manner provided in subdivisions (A) and (B) above); (3) on any change in the number of shares or exercise price of Common Stock deliverable upon exercise of any such options or rights or conversions of or exchanges for such securities, other than a change resulting from the antidilution provisions thereof, the Conversion Prices shall forthwith be readjusted to such Conversion Prices as would have been obtained had the adjustment made upon the issuance of such options, rights or securities not converted prior to such change, or options or rights 11 related to such securities not converted prior to such change, been made upon the basis of such change; (4) on the expiration of any such options or rights, the termination of any such rights to convert or exchange or the expiration of any options or rights related to such convertible or exchangeable securities, the Conversion Prices shall forthwith be readjusted to such Conversion Prices as would have been obtained had the adjustment made upon the issuance of such options, rights, securities or options or rights related to such securities been made upon the basis of the issuance of only the number of shares of Common Stock actually issued upon the exercise of such options or rights, upon the conversion or exchange of such securities, or upon the exercise of the options or rights related to such securities and subsequent conversion or exchange thereof; and (5) no further adjustment of the Conversion Prices adjusted upon the issuance of any such options, rights, convertible securities or exchangeable securities shall be made as a result of the actual issuance of Common Stock on the exercise of any such rights or options or any conversion or exchange of any such securities. (iii) If, at any time after the COL Closing Date, the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding is increased by a stock dividend payable in shares of Common Stock or by a subdivision or split-up of shares of Common Stock, then, following the record date for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive such stock dividend, subdivision or split-up, the Conversion Prices shall be appropriately decreased so that the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on conversion of each share of Designated Preferred Stock shall be increased in proportion to such increase in outstanding shares. (iv) If, at any time after the COL Closing Date , the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding is decreased by a combination of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, then, following the record date for such combination, the Conversion Prices shall be appropriately increased so that the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on conversion of each share of Designated Preferred Stock shall be decreased in proportion to such decrease in outstanding shares. (v) In the event of any capital reorganization of the Corporation, any reclassification of the capital stock of the Corporation (other than a change in par value or from par value to no par value or from no par value to par value or as a result of a stock dividend or subdivision, split-up or combination of shares), or any consolidation or merger of the Corporation, each share of Designated Preferred Stock shall after such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, or merger be convertible into the kind and number of shares of capital stock or other securities or property of the Corporation or of the corporation resulting from such consolidation or surviving such merger to which the holder of the number of 12 shares of Common Stock deliverable (immediately prior to the time of such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation or merger) upon conversion of such share of Designated Preferred Stock would have been entitled upon such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation or merger. The provisions of this clause shall similarly apply to successive reorganizations, reclassifications, consolidations or mergers. (vi) No adjustment in any Conversion Price shall be required unless such adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least $0.01 in such Conversion Price; provided, that any adjustments not required to be made by virtue of this sentence shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment. All calculations under paragraphs (i) through (v) above shall be made to the nearest one hundredth (1/100) of a cent or the nearest one tenth (1/10) of a share, as the case may be. (vii) In any case in which the provisions of this Section 4.1(e) shall require that an adjustment shall become effective immediately after a record date of an event, the Corporation may defer until the occurrence of such event (1) issuing to the holder of any share of Designated Preferred Stock converted after such record date and before the occurrence of such event the shares of capital stock issuable upon such conversion by reason of the adjustment required by such event in addition to the shares of capital stock issuable upon such conversion before giving effect to such adjustments, and (2) paying to such holder any amount in cash in lieu of a fractional share of capital stock pursuant to paragraph (d) above; provided, however, that the Corporation shall deliver to such holder an appropriate instrument evidencing such holder's right to receive such additional shares and such cash. (viii) Whenever a Conversion Price shall be adjusted as provided in this Section 4.1(e), the Corporation shall make available for inspection during regular business hours, at its principal executive offices or at such other place as may be designated by the Corporation, a statement, signed by its chief executive officer, showing in detail the facts requiring such adjustment and such Conversion Price that shall be in effect after such adjustment. The Corporation shall also cause a copy of such statement to be sent by first class certified mail, return receipt requested and postage prepaid, to each holder of Designated Preferred Stock at such holder's address appearing on the Corporation's records. Where appropriate, such copy may be given in advance and may be included as part of any notice required to be mailed under the provisions of paragraph (ix) below. (ix) If the Corporation shall propose to take any action of the types described in Section 4.1(e)(v) above, the Corporation shall give notice to each holder of shares of Designated Preferred Stock, in the manner set forth in paragraph (viii) above, which notice shall specify the record date, if any, with respect to any such action and the date on which such action is to take place. Such notice shall also set forth such facts with respect thereto as shall be reasonably necessary to indicate the effect of such action (to the extent such effect 13 may be known at the date of such notice) on the Conversion Prices and the number, kind or class of shares or other securities or property which shall be deliverable or purchasable upon the occurrence of such action or deliverable upon conversion of shares of Designated Preferred Stock. In the case of any action which would require the fixing of a record date, such notice shall be given at least twenty (20) days prior to the date so fixed, and in case of all other action, such notice shall be given at least thirty (30) days prior to the taking of such proposed action. Failure to give such notice, or any defect therein, shall not affect the legality or validity of any such action. (x) The Corporation shall at all times keep reserved, free from preemptive rights, out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting the conversion of the Designated Preferred Stock, sufficient shares of Common Stock to provide for the conversion of all outstanding shares of Designated Preferred Stock. (xi) Without duplication of any other adjustment provided for in this Section 4.1(e), at any time the Corporation makes or fixes a record date for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive a dividend or other distribution payable in securities of the Corporation other than shares of Common Stock, provision shall be made so that each holder of Designated Preferred Stock shall receive upon conversion thereof, in addition to the shares of Common Stock receivable thereupon, the number of securities of the Corporation which it would have received had its shares of Designated Preferred Stock been converted into shares of Common Stock on the date of such event and had such holder thereafter, during the period from the date of such event to and including the date of conversion, retained such securities receivable by it pursuant to this paragraph during such period, subject to the sum of all other adjustments called for during such period under this Section 4.1 with respect to the rights of such holder of Designated Preferred Stock.

(a) In the event that any Preferred Stockholder (hereinafter, the "Section 4 Offeree") receives and determines to accept a bona fide arms length offer (the "Section 4 Offer") from a third party that is not an Affiliate of such Preferred Stockholder (the "Section 4 Offeror") to purchase all or any portion of the shares of Stock held by such Preferred Stockholder (other than Exempt Transfers) for a specified price payable in cash or otherwise and on specified terms and conditions, such Section 4 Offeree shall promptly forward a notice complying with Section 4(b) (the "Section 4 Notice") to the other Stockholders. Subject to Section 4(c), the Section 4 Offeree shall not Transfer any Stock to the Section 4 Offeror unless the terms of the Section 4 Offer are extended to the other Stockholders with respect to their Proportionate Percentage of the aggregate number of shares of Stock to which the Section 4 Offer relates, whereupon each other Stockholder shall be entitled to Transfer to the Section 4 Offeror pursuant to the Section 4 Offer, Fourth Amended and Restated EXECUTION Stockholders' Agreement 15 such other Stockholder's Proportionate Percentage of the aggregate number of shares of Stock to which the Section 4 Offer relates. (b) The Section 4 Notice shall set forth (i) the number of shares of Stock to which the Section 4 Offer relates and the name of the Section 4 Offeree, (ii) the name and address of the Section 4 Offeror, (iii) the proposed amount and type of consideration (including, if the consideration consists in whole or in part of non-cash consideration, such information available to the Section 4 Offeree as may be reasonably necessary for the Stockholders to properly analyze the economic value and investment risk of such non-cash consideration) and the terms and conditions of payment offered by the Section 4 Offeror and (iv) that the Section 4 Offeror has been informed of the co-sale rights provided for in this Section 4 and has agreed to purchase Stock in accordance with the terms of this Section 4. (c) Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, but subject to Section 2, the Section 4 Offeree shall, in addition to complying with the provisions of this Section 4, comply with the provisions of Section 3 (it being understood that the Section 3 Offer Notice contemplated by Section 3(a) and the Section 4 Notice may be included in a single notice), and each Stockholder, prior to Transferring any Stock to the Section 4 Offeror, shall comply with the provisions of Section 3. SECTION 5. REPURCHASE RIGHT. (a) Repurchase of Common Stock in the Event of Termination of Employment. In the event of a termination of a Management Stockholder's employment by or service to the Corporation for any reason whatsoever other than the death of such Management Stockholder (a "Repurchase Event"), such Management Stockholder and the transferee(s) thereof following an Exempt Transfer pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, if any (collectively, the "Management Group"), shall be required to offer to sell to the Corporation and its Designees (as defined below, and collectively with the Corporation, the "Corporation Group") the Common Stock held by such Management Group pursuant to the terms of this Section 5. (i) In the event a Repurchase Event occurs, the Corporation shall have the right (but not the obligation) (the "Repurchase Right") during the 90-day period following such Repurchase Event (the "Repurchase Period") to purchase all or any portion of all of the Stock held by the Management Group (the "Repurchase Shares") in accordance with the provisions of this Section 5(a). During the Repurchase Period, the Corporation shall provide written notice of the occurrence of a Repurchase Event to the Board and the Management Group, which notice shall include the number of Repurchase Shares held by the Management Group (the "Repurchase Notice"). The Corporation shall, as promptly as practicable after a Repurchase Event, provide written notice to the Management Group of the determination of the Fair Market Value of the Repurchase Shares, with the date of determination thereof pursuant to the terms of this Agreement being hereinafter referred to as the "FMV Determination Date." The Corporation may initially elect to purchase all, or any portion, of the Repurchase Shares at a price equal to the Fair Market Value thereof by delivering a written notice of such election to the Management Group at any time during the Repurchase Period; provided, however, that in the event of a Repurchase Event caused by the termination for Cause of the Management Fourth Amended and Restated EXECUTION Stockholders' Agreement 16 Stockholder, the purchase price of the Repurchase Shares shall be equal to the lower of the Original Cost and the Fair Market Value thereof; provided further, however, that the Corporation's right to repurchase the Stock at the lower of Original Cost and the Fair Market Value shall lapse at the rate of 20% of the shares of Stock per year from the date the option to purchase such shares of Stock was granted (without respect to the date the option was exercised or became exercisable). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Corporation's Repurchase Right shall expire on the date the Corporation's securities become publicly traded. (ii) If the Corporation elects to purchase less than all of the Repurchase Shares, the Corporation shall be permitted to designate (the "Repurchase Designation") to one or more designees (each, a "Designee") the right (but not the obligation) to purchase from the Management Group the Repurchase Shares not being purchased by the Corporation (such shares being the "Designated Shares"), subject to terms of this paragraph and Section 16 below. The Corporation shall, as promptly as practicable after a Repurchase Designation, provide written notice (the "Designation Notice") to each Investor of the number of Designated Shares, the name and address of each Designee and the Fair Market Value of the Designated Shares. Each Investor may elect to purchase up to such Investor's Proportionate Percentage of the Designated Shares at a price equal to the purchase price for such Designated Shares determined pursuant to Section 5(a)(i) above by delivering a written notice of such election (the "Election Notice") to the Corporation within 10 Business Days of receipt of the Designation Notice. If the Corporation receives an Election Notice from an Investor, then the Corporation shall designate to such Investor the right to purchase that number of Designated Shares set forth in the Election Notice, subject to the limitations set forth in the preceding sentence. The number of Repurchase Shares shall be reduced by the aggregate number of Designated Shares set forth in the Election Notices, if any, received by the Corporation from the Investors. Each Designee shall only be permitted to purchase the number of Repurchase Shares (if any) equal to such Designee's pro rata portion of the aggregate number of Designated Shares, minus the aggregate number of shares for which Election Notices were received by the Corporation. (iii) The number of shares of Stock to be purchased by the Corporation, the Designees and/or the Investors (as applicable) shall first be satisfied to the extent possible from the Repurchase Shares held by the Management Stockholder at the time of the distribution by the Corporation of the Repurchase Notice. If the number of Repurchase Shares then held by the Management Stockholder is less than the total number of Repurchase Shares the Corporation, the Designees and/or the Investors (as applicable) have elected to purchase, the Corporation, the Designees and/or the Investors (as applicable) shall purchase the remaining Repurchase Shares elected to be purchased from the other members of the Management Group pro rata according to the number of Repurchase Shares held by such other members of the Management Group at the time of distribution of such Repurchase Notice (determined as nearly as practicable to the nearest share). (b) Repurchase Upon Death of Management Stockholder. In the event of the death of any Management Stockholder (including a death that occurs while the Management Fourth Amended and Restated EXECUTION Stockholders' Agreement 17 Stockholder is employed or retained by the Corporation or an Affiliate thereof) (a "Decedent"), the provisions of paragraph (a) above shall apply as if a Repurchase Event had occurred; provided, however, that (i) the Repurchase Notice required to be delivered by the Corporation to the Board shall be delivered to the personal representative of the Decedent promptly after being appointed as such, (ii) the Management Stockholder, for purposes of Section 5(a) above, shall be the Decedent's personal representative and (iii) the Management Group shall include the Decedent and the transferee(s) thereof following an Exempt Transfer. The Corporation may, at its option, maintain life insurance on the lives of any Management Stockholder for the purpose of financing the acquisition of all or a portion of Shares being repurchased from such Management Stockholder pursuant to this Section 5(b). The proceeds of any such life insurance (the "Life Insurance Proceeds") shall be payable to the Corporation. Each Management Stockholder agrees to reasonably cooperate with the Corporation in connection with obtaining any such life insurance. (c) Payment of Purchase Price. (i) In the event that the Corporation terminates the Management Stockholder's employment or service without Cause, the purchase price payable by the Corporation, the Designees and/or the Investors (as applicable) pursuant to Section 5(a) or (b) above shall be payable in cash within 90 days after delivery of the Repurchase Notice. (ii) In the event that the Management Stockholder terminates his employment with the Corporation or the Corporation terminates such employment for Cause, the purchase price payable by the Corporation, the Designees and/or the Investors (as applicable) pursuant to Section 5(a) or (b) above shall be payable as follows: (A) 33.33% in cash within 90 days after delivery of the Repurchase Notice; and (B) the remaining portion in the form of a non-negotiable promissory note delivered within 90 days after delivery of the Repurchase Notice and payable to the order of the applicable members of the Management Group which note shall be (1) dated the date of the closing of the sale transaction, bearing interest at the prime rate reported by The Chase Manhattan Bank, N.A. (or the successor thereto) in the Wall Street Journal as of such date, (2) payable in three equal annual installments of principal and interest accrued thereon payable on the anniversary of the date of the note, (3) prepayable at any time without premium, prepayments to be applied to payments of principal and then interest next due and (4) subordinated to any funded indebtedness of the Corporation. (d) Restrictions on Repurchases. Anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, all repurchases of shares of Common Stock by the Corporation, the Designees and/or the Investors pursuant to this Section 5 shall be subject to applicable restrictions contained in federal law, the law of any other applicable jurisdiction and in the Corporation's debt and equity financing agreements. Anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, if any such restrictions prohibit or otherwise delay the repurchase Fourth Amended and Restated EXECUTION Stockholders' Agreement 18 of shares of Common Stock or any payment of money in connection therewith pursuant to this Section 5 which the Corporation is otherwise entitled or required to make, the Corporation may make such repurchases or such payments within thirty (30) days of the date that it is permitted to do so without violating such restrictions, and the Repurchase Period shall be deemed extended until such time. (e) Fair Market Value of Stock. (i) Disputes. If the Management Stockholder subject to the Repurchase Event disputes the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock, then the Parties shall negotiate the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock in good faith. If the Parties cannot agree on the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock within 10 days of the initial dispute, then the Fair Market Value shall be determined by an independent appraiser, experienced in valuing businesses comparable to the business of the Corporation. Such appraiser shall be selected by an agreement of the Corporation and such Management Stockholder acting in good faith or, if the Parties are unable to agree, then each of the Parties shall select an appraiser meeting the requirements of the preceding sentence, and the two appraisers so selected shall jointly select a third appraiser, also meeting the requirements of the preceding sentence, which third appraiser (and not the other two) shall perform the appraisal. If either party fails to appoint an appraiser within 10 days after receipt of a written demand from the other party to do so, the appraisal will be conducted by the appraiser selected by the party making the demand. Within 30 days of the date the appraiser is selected in accordance with the terms of this definition, such appraiser shall make a determination of the Fair Market Value. The decision of such appraiser shall be final and binding. The costs and expenses of determining the Fair Market Value shall be paid equally by the Management Stockholder that is subject to the Repurchase Event, on the one hand, and the party or Parties purchasing such Management Stockholder's Stock, on the other hand. (ii) No Liability. Neither the Corporation nor any officer, director, employee or agent of the Corporation shall have any liability with respect to valuation of Common Stock that are bought or sold at the Fair Market Value, as determined pursuant to this Agreement, even though the Fair Market Value, as so determined, may be more or less than actual fair market value, and shall be fully protected in relying in good faith upon the records of the Corporation and upon information, opinions, reports or statements presented to the Corporation by any Person as to matters which the Corporation or such director, officer, employee or agent reasonably believes are within such other Person's professional or expert competence and who has been selected with reasonable care by or on behalf of the Corporation. (f) Consents and Approvals. In the event that shares of Common Stock are repurchased pursuant to this Section 5, the Management Group and the purchasers thereof and their respective successors, assigns and representatives shall take all steps necessary or desirable to obtain, at their sole cost and expense, all required third-party, governmental and regulatory consents and approvals (including, without limitation, any actions required under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended) and shall take all other actions necessary or desirable to facilitate consummation of such repurchase in a timely manner. Fourth Amended and Restated EXECUTION Stockholders' Agreement 19 (g) Inapplicability of Certain Sections. In the event that a separate written agreement between the Corporation and a Management Stockholder contains a repurchase right with respect to such Management Stockholder's Stock, Sections 5(a), (b), (c), (d) and (f) shall not apply to such Management Stockholder's Stock and the provisions contained in such separate written agreement shall control and supercede such Sections with respect to such Management Stockholder's Stock. SECTION 6. PREEMPTIVE RIGHTS. (a) Except in the case of Excluded Securities (as defined in Section 6(f) below), the Corporation shall not issue, sell or exchange, agree to issue, sell or exchange, or reserve or set aside for issuance, sale or exchange, (i) any Stock, (ii) any other equity security of the Corporation or any instrument or contractual right, whether or not vested or immediately exercisable which represents an interest in the Corporation which entitles the holder hereof to receive capital stock or a return on such interest similar to capital stock (including but not limited to phantom stock or stock appreciation rights), (iii) any debt security of the Corporation which by its terms is convertible into or exchangeable for any equity security of the Corporation or has any other equity feature, (iv) any security of the Corporation that is a combination of a debt and equity security or (v) any option, warrant or other right to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire any security of the Corporation specified in the foregoing clauses (i) through (iv) (an "Equity Financing"), unless in each case the Corporation shall have first offered to sell to each Investor such Investor's Proportionate Percentage of such securities (the "Offered Securities"), at a price and on such other material terms and conditions as shall have been specified by the Corporation in writing and delivered to each Investor (the "Offer"), which Offer by its terms shall remain open and irrevocable for a period of 15 Business Days from the date it is delivered by the Corporation to the Investor. (b) Notice of each Investor's intention to accept, in whole or in part, an Offer shall be evidenced by a writing signed by such Investor and delivered to the Corporation prior to the end of the 15 Business Day period of such Offer, setting forth such portion of the Offered Securities as such Investor elects to purchase (the "Notice of Acceptance"). (c) In the event that Notices of Acceptance are given by the Investors in respect of all the Offered Securities, the Investors shall purchase from the Corporation, and the Corporation shall sell to the Investors, the Offered Securities in respect of which Notices of Acceptance were delivered to the Corporation by the Investors, at the terms specified in the Offer, within 15 Business Days of the expiration of the 15 Business Day period set forth in Section 6(b) above. (d) In the event that Notices of Acceptance are not given by the Investors in respect of all the Offered Securities, the Corporation shall have 90 days from the expiration of the 15 Business Day period set forth in Section 6(b) above to sell all or any part of such Offered Securities as to which Notices of Acceptance have not been given by the Investor (the "Refused Securities") to any other person or persons, but only upon terms and conditions in all material respects, including, without limitation, price and interest rates, which are no more favorable, in the aggregate, to such other person or persons and no less favorable to the Corporation than those set forth in the Offer. Upon the closing of the sale to such other Person or Persons of the Fourth Amended and Restated EXECUTION Stockholders' Agreement 20 Refused Securities, which shall occur at a time within 10 Business Days of the expiration of such 15 Business Day period that is acceptable to the Corporation and a majority of the participating Investors and which shall include full payment to the Corporation, the Investors shall purchase from the Corporation, and the Corporation shall sell to the Investors, the Offered Securities in respect of which Notices of Acceptance were delivered to the Corporation by the Investors, at the terms specified in the Offer, within 15 Business Days of the expiration of the 15 Business Day period set forth in Section 6(b) above. (e) Any Offered Securities offered under the circumstances described in clause (a) above and not purchased by the Investors or any other person or persons in accordance with Section 6(c) or (d) may not be sold or otherwise disposed of until they are again offered to the Investors under the procedures specified in Sections 6(a), (b), (c) or (d). (f) The rights of the Investors under this Section 6 shall not apply to issuances of the following securities (the "Excluded Securities"): (i) up to 1,632,625 shares (as adjusted equitably for stock splits, stock dividends and the like) of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of stock options or pursuant to stock purchase agreements (the issuance of which was duly approved by the Board) granted to or entered into with officers, directors, employees and/or consultants of the Corporation or its Subsidiaries pursuant to the Stock Option Plan; (ii) shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion or exercise of shares of convertible or exercisable securities (other than options or other securities described in subsection (i) above) outstanding as of the date hereof; (iii) shares of Common Stock issued in connection with an initial public offering; (iv) shares of Stock issued as the purchase consideration in connection with any Board-approved merger or business acquisition; and (v) securities issued as a stock dividend or upon any stock split or other subdivision or combination of shares of Stock; SECTION 7. PUT PROVISIONS; SALE OF THE CORPORATION. (a) Notwithstanding any limitations on Transfers set forth in Sections 2, 3 and 4 hereof, at any time after April 15, 2007 and prior to April 15, 2008 (the "Put Period"), GRP, provided that (i) GRP, together with its Affiliates or other members of its Group, holds at least eighty-five (85%) percent of the Stock of the Corporation held by it as of the Closing Date (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends and the like); (ii) the Put Purchase Price (as defined below) is at least thirty million dollars ($30,000,000); (iii) the Corporation has not engaged, or does not have fixed plans to engage within ninety (90) days of the time of the Section 7 Put Offer Notice (as defined below), an investment bank of nationally recognized standing to commence a firm commitment underwritten public offering of Common Stock of the Corporation and (iv) a recommendation by the Board to the Stockholders to approve a sale of the Corporation is not then outstanding at the time of the Section 7 Put Offer Notice, shall have, and is hereby granted, Fourth Amended and Restated EXECUTION Stockholders' Agreement 21 the right and option to request on one occasion (the "Sale Request") that the Corporation and/or the other Stockholders purchase all, but not less than all, of the Stock held by GRP and its Affiliates and the other members of its Group (the "Put Shares") as of the date of the Sale Request upon and subject to the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth at the Put Purchase Price (as defined below) per Put Share: (i) In order to exercise a Sale Request, GRP shall deliver to the Corporation, who will then forward to each other Investor during the Put Period a written notice (the "Section 7 Put Offer Notice"), indicating its desire to sell (the "Section 7 Put Offer") all, but not less than all, of the Put Shares in accordance with the provisions of this Section 7. (ii) Upon receipt of the Section 7 Put Offer Notice, the "Put Fair Market Value" shall be such fair market value of the Corporation on the date of receipt of the Section 7 Put Offer Notice as shall be agreed upon between the Corporation, on the one hand, and GRP, on the other hand. In the absence of such agreement within forty-five (45) days from the Corporation's receipt of a Section 7 Put Offer Notice (the "Appraiser Trigger Date"), the Put Fair Market Value shall be determined by an independent appraiser, selected by mutual agreement of the Corporation and GRP, acting in good faith. If the parties are unable to agree upon such appraiser, then each of the Corporation and GRP shall select an appraiser, and the two appraisers so selected shall jointly select a third appraiser, which third appraiser (and not the other two) shall perform the appraisal. If either party fails to appoint an appraiser within fourteen (14) days after receipt of a written demand from the other party to do so, the appraisal will be conducted by the appraiser selected by the party making the demand. Such appraiser shall make a determination of the Put Fair Market Value as promptly as practicable. The Corporation shall use commercially reasonable efforts to assist the appraiser in completing its determination within thirty (30) days of its engagement. Such appraiser shall value the Corporation by determining the amount a willing buyer would pay in cash to a willing seller under no compulsion to sell for all of the shares of Common Stock of the Corporation on a Fully Diluted Basis, less the reasonably estimated transaction costs that would be incurred in connection with such a sale (including, without limitation, estimated investment banking, attorneys and accounting fees, but not taxes). The decision of such appraiser shall be final and binding. The Corporation and GRP shall, as promptly as practicable after the determination of the Put Fair Market Value, provide written notice to the Investors of the determination of the Put Fair Market Value, the aggregate number of Put Shares, the Put Purchase Price per Put Share and the aggregate consideration for the Put Shares, with the date of determination thereof pursuant to the terms of this Agreement being hereinafter referred to as the "Put FMV Determination Date." (a) The costs and expenses of determining the Put Fair Market Value shall be paid equally by GRP, on the one hand, and the party or parties purchasing such Put Shares, on the other hand. (b) In the event that (i) the Put Purchase Price is determined hereunder to be less than thirty million dollars ($30,000,000) or (ii) the Put Purchase Price is determined hereunder to be at least thirty million dollars ($30,000,000) but GRP Fourth Amended and Restated EXECUTION Stockholders' Agreement 22 determines not to extend a written Sale Request within the applicable period described in the first sentence of subparagraph (iii) below, then GRP's rights under this Section 7 shall terminate and the Corporation and the Investors (other than GRP) shall have no further obligations under this Section 7. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 7 to the contrary, if either of the events in the preceding sentence occur, the costs and expenses of determining the Put Fair Market Value shall be paid by GRP. (iii) Within ten (10) days after the Put FMV Determination Date, GRP may extend a written Sale Request to the Corporation (which shall then notify each other Investor, of such Request) which, if made, shall be irrevocable during the Corporation Put Period (as defined below) and the Stockholder Put Period (as defined below). (iv) If a valid Sale Request has been made by GRP, the Corporation shall have the exclusive right (but not the obligation) (the "Put Repurchase Right") during the ninety (90) day period following the determination of the Put Fair Market Value (as defined below) (the "Corporation Put Period") to purchase all or any portion of all of the Put Shares for cash in accordance with the provisions of this Section 7. (v) The "Put Purchase Price" shall be determined by multiplying the Put Fair Market Value by a fraction (the "Fraction"), the numerator of which is the aggregate number of Put Shares then held by GRP (measured on a Common Stock Equivalent Basis), and the denominator of which is the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding (determined on a Adjusted Treasury Stock Basis). The "Put Purchase Price per Put Share" shall be the Put Purchase Price divided by the aggregate number of Put Shares then held by GRP (measured on a Common Stock Equivalent Basis). (vi) The Corporation may elect to purchase all, or any portion, of the Put Shares at a price equal to the Put Purchase Price per Put Share by delivering a written notice of such election to GRP and the other Investors at any time during the Corporation Put Period; provided that the Corporation shall not be obligated to purchase that portion of the Put Shares it so elects, if the other Investors do not purchase pursuant to subparagraph (b) hereof all of the remaining Put Shares not elected to be purchased by the Corporation. (b) If the Corporation fails to elect to purchase during the Corporation Put Period all of the Put Shares offered for sale pursuant to, or shall reject in writing, the Section 7 Put Offer, then the other Investors shall have the right (but not the obligation), for a period of thirty (30) days after the expiration of the Corporation Put Period (the "Stockholder Put Period"), to accept all, but not less than all, of the remaining Put Shares not purchased by the Corporation pursuant to subparagraph (a) hereof (the "Non-Purchased Put Shares") at the Put Purchase Price per Put Share. Each Investor (other than GRP) may exercise such right and purchase all or any portion of its Proportionate Percentage of the Non-Purchased Put Shares, by notifying the Corporation in writing within the twenty (20) day period after the end of the Corporation Put Period (the "Initial Allocation Period") as to the shares of Non-Purchased Put Shares (up to its full Proportionate Percentage) that it wishes to purchase. If one or more of the Investors (other Fourth Amended and Restated EXECUTION Stockholders' Agreement 23 than GRP) do not fully exercise their right to purchase their respective Proportionate Percentage of the Non-Purchased Put Shares pursuant to this subparagraph (b), the Corporation shall give written notice (the "Put Reallocation Notice") within five (5) days after the end of the Initial Allocation Period to all Investors (other than GRP), and the Investors who have elected to exercise their rights to purchase all of their Proportionate Percentage of the Non-Purchased Put Shares pursuant to this subparagraph (b) (the "Participating Put Offerees") shall have the opportunity to purchase all of the shares of Stock with respect to which the right to purchase was not exercised pursuant to this subparagraph (b) (the "Non-Allocated Put Shares"). If the Non-Allocated Put Shares are oversubscribed for, then the portion of the Non-Allocated Put Shares that each such Participating Offeree shall be entitled to purchase shall be reduced in proportion to its respective outstanding ownership interest in the Corporation on the date of the Put Reallocation Notice until the sum of the amounts allocated to the Participating Put Offerees is equal in total to the Non-Allocated Put Shares; provided further, that such Participating Put Offeree that desires to purchase up to its full pro rata share of the Non-Allocated Put Shares shall be allocated the amount it desires to purchase. For purposes of this subparagraph (b), each Participating Put Offeree's pro rata share shall be a fraction of the Non-Allocated Put Shares, the numerator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock, on a Common Stock Equivalent Basis, on the date of delivery of the Put Reallocation Notice held by such Participating Put Offeree and the denominator of which is the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock, on a Common Stock Equivalent Basis, held by all Participating Put Offerees. The Participating Put Offerees shall have until the end of the Stockholder Put Period to elect to purchase all, but not less than all, of the Put Shares and to deliver to the Corporation and GRP a written notice with respect to the purchase of the Non-Purchased Put Shares (including the Non-Allocated Put Shares) pursuant to the terms of this subparagraph (b). (c) A notice of acceptance delivered by either the Corporation or a Investor (other than GRP), as the case may be, to GRP pursuant to Section 7(a) or Section 7(b), shall be an irrevocable and binding commitment to purchase the Put Shares referred to therein; provided that the Corporation and/or the other Investors, collectively, agree to purchase all, but not less than all, of the Put Shares from GRP. (d) If a valid Sale Request has been made by GRP and effective acceptance shall not be received by GRP pursuant to Sections 7(a) or 7(b) with respect to all Put Shares offered for sale pursuant to the Section 7 Put Offer Notice, then (i) notwithstanding anything in this Section 7 to the contrary, the costs and expenses in determining the Put Fair Market Value shall be paid by the Corporation and (ii) the Corporation shall retain an independent investment banker, business broker or other agent of nationally recognized standing selected by the Board and reasonably satisfactory to GRP (the "Broker") to attempt during a six (6) month period after the engagement of the Broker (the "Liquidity Attempt Period") to facilitate either (i) a Qualified Public Offering or (ii) a Sale of the Corporation as follows: (i) The Corporation shall enter into an engagement letter with the Broker within forty-five (45) days after the end of the Stockholder Put Period. (ii) After the Corporation enters into an engagement letter with the Broker, the Corporation shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate in connection with any potential Qualified Public Offering or Sale of the Corporation, and Fourth Amended and Restated EXECUTION Stockholders' Agreement 24 the Stockholders agree to comply with the provisions of the Registration Rights Agreement with respect to a Qualified Public Offering, and with the provisions of Section 9 hereof, with respect to a Sale of the Corporation, as applicable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Corporation shall afford to the Broker and prospective purchasers appropriate access to the management of the Corporation, the Corporation's books and records and the Corporation 's facilities (it being understood that no party shall be required to engage in any activity that materially interferes with the Corporation's business or, on a repeated basis or for an unreasonable length of time, interferes with an employees regular duties). (iii) If the Broker obtains a "Third-Party Offer" (as defined below) during the Liquidity Attempt Period, and the Third-Party Offer is not accepted by the Corporation and the Stockholders prior to the end of the Liquidity Attempt Period, or if such Third-Party Offer is received by the Corporation within sixty (60) days of the end of the Liquidity Attempt Period, then within sixty (60) days after receipt by the Corporation of such Third-Party Offer (the "Sale Period"), GRP shall have the option, but not the obligation, to require the Corporation (and only the Corporation) to purchase for cash all of the Put Shares then held by GRP at the Put Purchase Price per Put Share; provided, however, that the Corporation shall only be obligated to purchase such Put Shares to the extent (i) such purchase would not cause a violation of, or not result in the Corporation being in violation of, any Law and (ii) after taking all steps available to it under Section 154 of the DGCL, the Corporation has sufficient capital or surplus (as computed in accordance with the DGCL) to make the purchase required hereunder. The Corporation shall repurchase the remaining Put Shares, if any, as soon as practicable after the limitations described in the previous sentence no longer apply, until the Corporation's then-existing obligations under this Section 7(d)(iii) shall have been discharged in full. To exercise such option, GRP shall give notice of such exercise to the Corporation within thirty (30) days after expiration of the Sale Period. The purchase price for such Put Shares shall be determined by multiplying the "Sale Price" (as defined below) by the Fraction. (iv) In the event that the Corporation complies with the terms of this Section 7(d) and (i) the Corporation elected to pursue a Qualified Public Offering, but such Qualified Public Offering does not occur prior to the end of the Liquidity Attempt Period or (ii) (x) the Corporation elected to pursue a Sale of the Corporation, but the Corporation does not receive a Third Party Offer prior to the end of the Liquidity Attempt Period or (y) the Corporation has used commercially reasonable efforts to satisfy all closing conditions required of them under the terms of the Third Party Offer, but such closing conditions are not actually satisfied by the closing date specified in the Third Party Offer, then GRP shall be entitled to exercise its registration rights under Section 2 of the Registration Rights Agreement with respect to all, but not less than all of its shares and the Corporation shall have no further obligation under this Section 7 to purchase the Put Shares from GRP.

SECTION 20. MODIFICATION; WAIVER. Neither this Agreement nor any provisions hereof can be modified, changed, discharged, waived or terminated, except by an instrument in writing signed by the Corporation and the Requisite Designated Preferred Stockholders (as defined in the Certificate); provided, that any such modification, change, discharge, waiver or termination shall also require the written consent of any particular party hereto to the extent, and only to the extent, that any such modification, change, discharge, waiver or termination materially adversely affects the rights, privileges, duties or obligations of such party hereunder as compared to those of the other Parties hereto. No waiver by any party of any default, misrepresentation, or breach of warranty or covenant hereunder, whether intentional or not, shall be deemed to extend to any prior or subsequent default, misrepresentation, or breach of warranty or covenant hereunder or affect in any way any rights arising by virtue of any prior or subsequent such occurrence. The failure of any party to enforce any of the provisions of this Agreement shall in no way be construed as a waiver of such provisions and shall not affect the right of such party thereafter to enforce each and every provision of this Agreement in accordance with it terms. SECTION 21. VOTING. To the extent that the Corporation wishes to take any action requiring approval under Section 4.1(c)(ii) of the Certificate, if such action is approved as required by such Section 4.1(c)(ii) then each Stockholder agrees to vote all shares of capital stock of the Corporation held by such Stockholder in favor of such action, whether by written consent or at any meeting. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 21 shall be construed as requiring a Stockholder to vote its shares in favor of any action if such Stockholder owns capital stock of any class or series that would be entitled to vote as a separate class or series with respect to such action under Section 242(b)(2) of the DGCL. Fourth Amended and Restated EXECUTION Stockholders' Agreement 43 SECTION 22. REMEDIES. (a) Each Stockholder shall have all rights and remedies reserved for such Stockholder pursuant to this Agreement and all rights and remedies which such holder has been granted at any time under any other agreement or contract and all of the rights which such holder has under any Law or equity. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, a Person having any rights under any provision of this Agreement will be entitled to enforce such rights specifically, to recover damages by reason of any breach of any provision of this Agreement and to exercise all other rights granted by Law or equity. (b) The Parties acknowledge and agree that, solely with respect to Section 9 and Section 10 hereof, it will be impossible to measure in money the damages that would be suffered by any party hereto if any Person which is also a party hereto fails to comply with any of the obligations imposed on it in this Agreement or in the Certificate or By-Laws, and that in the event of any such failure, the aggrieved party will be irreparably damaged and will not have an adequate remedy at law. Any such aggrieved party shall, therefore, be entitled to equitable relief, including specific performance, to enforce such obligations, and if any action should be brought in equity to enforce any of the provisions of this Agreement, none of the Parties hereto shall raise the defense that there is an adequate remedy at law. SECTION 23. NO DISCLOSURE OBLIGATIONS. (a) The Corporation and each Stockholder acknowledges that each Investor will likely have, from time to time, information that may be of interest to the Corporation ("Information") regarding a wide variety of matters including, without limitation, (1) the Investor's technologies, products, plans and services, and plans and strategies relating thereto, (2) current and future investments the Investor has made, may make, may consider or may become aware of with respect to other Persons and other technologies, products, plans and services, and plans and strategies relating thereto, including, without limitation, those that may be competitive with the Corporation's, and (3) developments with respect to the technologies, products plans and services, and plans and strategies relating thereto, of other Persons, including, without limitation, Persons that may be competitive with the Corporation. The Corporation and each Stockholder recognizes that a portion of such Information may be of interest to the Corporation and that such Information may or may not be known by the applicable Investor Director. The Corporation and each Stockholder agree that the Investors and each Investor Director shall have no duty to disclose any Information to the Corporation or permit the Corporation to participate in any projects or investments based on any Information, or to otherwise take advantage of any opportunity that may be of interest to the Corporation if it were aware of such Information, and hereby waives, to the extent permitted by law, any claim based on the corporate opportunity doctrine or otherwise that could limit Investor's ability to pursue opportunities based on such Information or that would require the Investor or the Investor Director to disclose any such Information to the Corporation or offer any opportunity relating thereto to the Corporation.

This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, and each such counterpart hereof shall be deemed to be an original instrument, but all such counterparts together shall constitute but one agreement.

Any of the Information which the Corporation determines in good faith to be confidential, and of which determination the Inspectors are so notified, shall not be disclosed by the Inspectors unless (i) the disclosure of such Information is necessary to avoid or correct a misstatement or omission in the registration statement, (ii) the release of such Information is ordered pursuant to a subpoena or other order from a court of competent jurisdiction or (iii) such Information has been made generally available to the public; the Investors agree that they will, upon learning that disclosure of such Information is compelled by applicable Laws, give prior notice to the Corporation and allow the Corporation, at the Corporation's expense, to undertake appropriate action to prevent disclosure of the Information deemed confidential; (j) use its best efforts to obtain from its independent certified public accountants "cold comfort" letters in customary form and at customary times and covering matters of the type customarily covered by cold comfort letters; Fourth Amended and Restated EXECUTION Registration Rights Agreement 11 (k) use its best efforts to obtain from its counsel an opinion or opinions in customary form; (l) provide a transfer agent and registrar (which may be the same entity and which may be the Corporation) for such Registrable Shares; (m) issue to any underwriter to which the holders of such Registrable Shares may sell shares in such offering certificates evidencing such Registrable Shares; (n) list such Registrable Shares on any national securities exchange on which any shares of the Common Stock are listed or, if the Common Stock is not listed on a national securities exchange, use its best efforts to qualify such Registrable Shares for listing on the Nasdaq National Market, or such other national securities exchange as the holders of a majority of such Registrable Shares shall reasonably request; (o) otherwise use its best efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the Commission and make available to its securityholders, as soon as reasonably practicable, earnings statements (which need not be audited) covering a period of 12 months beginning within three months after the effective date of the registration statement, which earnings statements shall satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act; and (p) subject to all the other provisions of this Agreement, use its best efforts to take all other steps necessary to effect the registration of such Registrable Shares contemplated hereby. Each holder of the Registrable Shares upon receipt of any written notice from the Corporation of any event of the kind described in Section 6(h) hereof, shall forthwith discontinue disposition of the Registrable Shares pursuant to the registration statement covering such Registrable Shares until such holder's receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 6(h) hereof, and, if so directed by the Corporation, such holder shall deliver to the Corporation all copies, other than permanent file copies then in such holder's possession, of the prospectus covering such Registrable Shares at the time of receipt of such notice. Section 7. Expenses. All expenses (other than underwriting discounts and commissions relating to the Registrable Shares, as provided in the last sentence of this Section 7) incurred by the Corporation in complying with Section 6, including, without limitation, all registration and filing fees (including all expenses incident to filing with the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.), fees and expenses of complying with securities and blue sky laws, printing expenses, fees and expenses of the Corporation's counsel and accountants and reasonable fees and expenses of Counsel shall be paid by the Corporation; provided, however, that all underwriting discounts and selling commissions applicable to the Registrable Shares and the Other Shares shall be borne by the holders selling such Registrable Shares and Other Shares, in proportion to the number of Registrable Shares and Other Shares sold by each such holder. Fourth Amended and Restated EXECUTION Registration Rights Agreement 12 Section 8. Indemnification. (a) In connection with any registration of any Registrable Shares under the Securities Act pursuant to this Agreement, the Corporation shall indemnify and hold harmless the holders of Registrable Shares, each underwriter, broker and any other Person acting on behalf of the holders of Registrable Shares and each other Person, if any, who controls any of the foregoing Persons within the meaning of the Securities Act against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several (or actions in respect thereof), to which any of the foregoing Persons may become subject under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement or allegedly untrue statement of a material fact contained in the registration statement under which such Registrable Shares were registered under the Securities Act, any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein or otherwise filed with the Commission, any amendment or supplement thereto or any document incident to registration or qualification of any Registrable Shares, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or, with respect to any prospectus, necessary to make the statements therein in light of the circumstances under which they were made not misleading, or any violation by the Corporation of the Securities Act or state securities or blue sky laws applicable to the Corporation and relating to action or inaction required of the Corporation in connection with such registration or qualification under such state securities or blue sky laws; and shall reimburse the holders of Registrable Shares, such underwriter, such broker and such other Person acting on behalf of the holders of Registrable Shares and each such controlling Person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by any of them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the Corporation shall not be liable to any Person in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action (including any legal or other expenses incurred) arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or allegedly untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in said registration statement, preliminary prospectus, final prospectus, amendment, supplement or document incident to registration or qualification of any Registrable Shares in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Corporation through an instrument duly executed by such Person or their counsel or underwriter specifically for use in the preparation thereof; provided further, however, that the foregoing indemnity agreement is subject to the condition that, insofar as it relates to any untrue statement, allegedly untrue statement, omission or alleged omission made in any preliminary prospectus but eliminated or remedied in the final prospectus (filed pursuant to Rule 424 of the Securities Act), such indemnity agreement shall not inure to the benefit of any Investor, holder, underwriter, broker or other Person acting on behalf of holders of the Registrable Shares from whom the Person asserting any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense purchased the Registrable Shares which are the subject thereof, if a copy of such final prospectus had been made available to such Person and such Investor, holder, underwriter, broker or other Person acting on behalf of holders of the Registrable Shares and such final prospectus was not delivered to such Person with or prior to the written confirmation of the sale of such Registrable Shares to such Person and the legal effect of delivery of such final prospectus would have been to eliminate the liability otherwise suffered or incurred by the Person asserting such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense. Fourth Amended and Restated EXECUTION Registration Rights Agreement 13 (b) In connection with any registration of Registrable Shares under the Securities Act pursuant to this Agreement, each holder of Registrable Shares shall severally and not jointly indemnify and hold harmless (in the same manner and to the same extent as set forth in the preceding paragraph of this Section 8) the Corporation, each director of the Corporation, each officer of the Corporation who shall sign such registration statement, each underwriter, broker or other Person acting on behalf of the holders of Registrable Shares and each Person who controls any of the foregoing Persons within the meaning of the Securities Act with respect to any statement or omission from such registration statement, any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein or otherwise filed with the Commission, any amendment or supplement thereto or any document incident to registration or qualification of any Registrable Shares if such statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by such holder to the Corporation or such underwriter specifically for use in connection with the preparation of such registration statement, preliminary prospectus, final prospectus, amendment, supplement or document; provided, however, that the maximum amount of liability in respect of such indemnification shall be limited, in the case of each seller of Registrable Shares, to an amount equal to the net proceeds actually received by such Seller from the sale of Registrable Shares effected pursuant to such registration. (c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party of notice of the commencement of any action involving a claim referred to in the preceding paragraphs of this Section 8, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is made against an indemnifying party, give written notice to the latter of the commencement of such action. The failure of any indemnified party to notify an indemnifying party of any such action shall not (unless such failure shall have a material adverse effect on the indemnifying party) relieve the indemnifying party from any liability in respect of such action that it may have to such indemnified party on account of this Section 8. In case any such action is brought against an indemnified party, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in and to assume the defense thereof, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified to the extent that it may wish, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party, and after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall not be responsible for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof; provided, however, that if separate legal counsel is reasonably required due to conflicts relating to one or more material legal or equitable defenses available to such indemnified party which are additional to or conflict with those available to the indemnifying party, or that such claim or litigation involves or could have an effect upon matters beyond the scope of the indemnity agreement provided in this Section 8, the indemnifying party shall not have the right to assume the defense of such action on behalf of such indemnified party (but shall have the right to participate therein with counsel of its choice) and such indemnifying party shall reimburse such indemnified party and any Person controlling such indemnified party for that portion of the fees and expenses of any counsel retained by the indemnified party which is reasonably related to the matters covered by the indemnity agreement provided in this Section 8. If the indemnifying party is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim, it will not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel with respect to such claim. (d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 8 is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an indemnified party with respect to any loss, claim, Fourth Amended and Restated EXECUTION Registration Rights Agreement 14 damage, liability or action referred to herein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party hereunder, shall contribute to the amounts paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such loss, claim, damage, liability or action in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party on the one hand and of the indemnified party on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such loss, claim, damage, liability or action as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and of the indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party or by the indemnified party and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The parties agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant hereto were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method or allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to herein. No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation shall be entitled to contribution from any Person. Section 9. Underwriting Agreement. Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 5, 6, 7 and 8, to the extent that the Investors or the Corporation shall enter into an underwriting or similar agreement, which agreement contains provisions covering one or more issues addressed in such sections, the provisions contained in such agreement addressing such issue or issues shall control; provided, however, that any such agreement to which the Corporation is not a party shall not be binding upon the Corporation and any such agreement to which one or more of the Investors is not a party shall not be binding upon such Investor or Investors. No holder may participate in any underwritten registration hereunder unless such holder (a) agrees to sell such holder's securities on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements and (b) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents reasonably and customarily required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements. Section 10. Information. Each Investor shall furnish to the Corporation such written information regarding such Person and the distribution proposed by such Person as the Corporation may reasonably request in writing and as shall be reasonably required in connection with any registration, qualification or compliance referred to in this Agreement. Section 11. Exchange Act Compliance. From the Registration Date or such earlier date as a registration statement filed by the Corporation pursuant to the Exchange Act relating to any class of the Corporation's securities shall have become effective, the Corporation shall comply with all of the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act applicable to it (whether or not it shall be required to do so, but specifically excluding Section 14 of the Exchange Act if not then applicable to the Corporation) and shall comply with all other public information reporting requirements of the Commission which are conditions to the availability of Rule 144 for the sale of the Common Stock. The Corporation shall cooperate with the Investors in supplying such information as any Investor may reasonably Fourth Amended and Restated EXECUTION Registration Rights Agreement 15 request to complete and file any information reporting forms presently or hereafter required by the Commission as a condition to the availability of Rule 144. Section 12. No Conflict of Rights. The Corporation shall not, after the date hereof, grant any registration rights which conflict with or impair the registration rights granted hereby. Section 13. Termination. This Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force or effect when there shall no longer be any Registrable Shares outstanding. Section 14. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the Corporation and the Investors and, subject to Section 15, the respective successors and assigns of the Corporation and the Investors. Section 15. Assignment. Each Investor may assign its rights hereunder (i) to any purchaser or transferee of not less than twenty-five (25%) percent of such Investor's Registrable Shares or (ii) to any Affiliate or other Group member (as such term is defined in the Stockholders' Agreement); provided, however, that, in each case, such purchaser, transferee, Affiliate or other Group member shall, as a condition to the effectiveness of such assignment, be required to execute a counterpart to this Agreement agreeing to be treated as a Investor whereupon such purchaser, transferee or Affiliate shall have the benefits of, and shall be subject to the restrictions contained in, this Agreement as if such purchaser, transferee or Affiliate was originally included in the definition of an Investor, herein and had originally been a party hereto. Section 16. Entire Agreement; Termination of Previous Registration Rights Agreements. This Agreement and the other writings referred to herein or delivered pursuant hereto, contain the entire agreement among the Investors and the Corporation with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior and contemporaneous arrangements or understandings with respect thereto including, without limitation, the prior Registration Rights Agreement. Section 17. Notices. All notices, requests, consents and other communications hereunder to any party shall be deemed to be sufficient if contained in a written instrument delivered in person or sent by telecopy, nationally-recognized overnight courier or first class registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, addressed to such party at the address set forth in Schedule I attached hereto or such other address as may hereafter be designated in writing by such party to the other parties. Fourth Amended and Restated EXECUTION Registration Rights Agreement 16 All such notices, requests, consents and other communications shall be deemed to have been delivered (a) in the case of personal delivery or delivery by telecopy, on the date of such delivery, (b) in the case of dispatch by nationally-recognized overnight courier, on the next business day following such dispatch and (c) in the case of mailing, on the third business day after the posting thereof. Section 18. Modifications; Amendments; Waivers. Neither this Agreement nor any provisions hereof can be modified, changed, discharged, waived or terminated, except by an instrument in writing signed by the Corporation and the Requisite Designated Preferred Stockholders as defined in the Certificate; provided, that any such modification, change, discharge, waiver or termination shall also require the written consent of any particular party hereto to the extent, and only to the extent, that any such modification, change, discharge, waiver or termination materially adversely affects the rights, privileges, duties or obligations of such party hereunder as compared to those of the other parties hereto. No waiver by any party of any default, misrepresentation, or breach of warranty or covenant hereunder, whether intentional or not, shall be deemed to extend to any prior or subsequent default, misrepresentation, or breach of warranty or covenant hereunder or affect in any way any rights arising by virtue of any prior or subsequent such occurrence. Section 19. Counterparts; Facsimile Signatures. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, and each such counterpart hereof shall be deemed to be an original instrument, but all such counterparts together shall constitute but one agreement. Facsimile counterpart signatures to this Agreement shall be acceptable at the Closing (as defined in the CMSI Stock Purchase Agreement) if the originally executed counterpart is delivered within a reasonable period thereafter. Section 20. Headings. The headings of the various sections of this Agreement have been inserted for convenience of reference only and shall not be deemed to be a part of this Agreement. Section 21. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the Laws of the State of New York applicable to contracts made and to be performed wholly therein. * * * * * Fourth Amended and Restated EXECUTION Registration Rights Agreement 17 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Agreement on the date first written above.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein: (i) each Term Lender agrees to make up to two Term Loans to the Borrowers from time to time during the Term Loan Availability Period in an aggregate principal amount not exceeding its Term Commitment; and (ii) each Revolving Lender agrees to make Revolving Loans to the Borrowers from time to time during the Revolving Availability Period in an aggregate principal amount that will not at any time result in such Lender's Revolving Exposure exceeding its Revolving Commitment. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrowers may borrow, prepay and reborrow Revolving Loans. Amounts repaid in respect of Term Loans may not be reborrowed. (b) The Commitments of the Lenders are several (i.e., the failure of any Lender to make any Loan required to be made by it shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations hereunder, and no Lender shall be responsible for any other Lender's failure to make Loans as and when required hereunder). Section 2.02. Revolving and Term Loans. (a) Each Revolving Loan and Term Loan shall be made as part of a Borrowing consisting of Loans of the same Class and Interest Type made by the Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Commitments of the applicable Class, as the Borrower may request (subject to Section 2.13) in accordance herewith; provided that all Borrowings made on the Effective Date must be Base Rate Borrowings. Each Lender at its option may make any Eurodollar Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan. Any exercise of such option shall not affect the Borrower's obligation to repay such Loan as provided herein. (b) At the beginning of each Interest Period for any Eurodollar Borrowing, the aggregate amount of such Borrowing shall be an integral multiple of $100,000 but not less than $1,000,000. When each Base Rate Borrowing is made, the aggregate amount of such Borrowing shall be an integral multiple of 25 $100,000 but not less than $1,000,000; provided that a Base Rate Revolving Borrowing may be in an aggregate amount that (i) is equal to the entire unused balance of the Revolving Commitments or (ii) is required to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as contemplated by Section 2.04(f). Borrowings of more than one Class and Interest Type may be outstanding at the same time; provided that there shall not at any time be more than a total of 6 Eurodollar Borrowings outstanding. (c) Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, no Borrower will be entitled to request, or to elect to convert or continue, any Eurodollar Borrowing if the Interest Period requested with respect thereto would end after the Revolving Maturity Date or Term Loan Maturity Date, as applicable. Section 2.03. Requests to Borrow Revolving or Term Loans. To request a Revolving Borrowing or Term Borrowing, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such request by telephone (a) in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, three Business Days before the date of the proposed Borrowing or (b) in the case of a Base Rate Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, one Business Day before the date of the proposed Borrowing; provided that any such notice of a Base Rate Revolving Borrowing to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as contemplated by Section 2.04(f) may be given not later than 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the date of the proposed Borrowing. Each such telephonic Borrowing Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or telecopy to the Administrative Agent of a written Borrowing Request in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and signed by the Borrower. Each such telephonic and written Borrowing Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02: (i) whether the requested Borrowing is to be a Revolving Borrowing or Term Borrowing; (ii) the aggregate amount of such Borrowing; (iii) the date of such Borrowing, which shall be a Business Day; (iv) whether such Borrowing is to be a Base Rate Borrowing or a Eurodollar Borrowing; (v) in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, the initial Interest Period to be applicable thereto, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of "Interest Period"; and 26 (vi) the location and number of the Borrower's account to which funds are to be disbursed, which shall comply with the requirements of Section 2.05. If no election as to the Interest Type of a Borrowing is specified, the requested Borrowing will be a Base Rate Borrowing. If no Interest Period with respect to a requested Eurodollar Borrowing is specified, the Borrower will be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month's duration. Promptly after it receives a Borrowing Request in accordance with this Section, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the relevant Class as to the details of such Borrowing Request and the amount of such Lender's Loan to be made pursuant thereto. Section 2.04. Letters of Credit. (a) General. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Borrower may request the issuance of Letters of Credit for its own account, in a form reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the LC Issuing Bank, from time to time during the Revolving Availability Period. If the terms and conditions of any form of letter of credit application or other agreement submitted by the Borrower to, or entered into by the Borrower with, the LC Issuing Bank relating to any Letter of Credit are not consistent with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control. (b) Existing Letters of Credit. On the Effective Date, without further action by any party hereto, the LC Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have granted to each other Revolving Lender, and each other Revolving Lender shall be deemed to have acquired from the LC Issuing Bank, a participation in each Existing Letter of Credit equal to such Revolving Lender's Revolving Percentage of (i) the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Existing Letter of Credit and (ii) the aggregate amount of any outstanding reimbursement obligations in respect thereof. With respect to each Existing Letter of Credit (i) if the LC Issuing Bank has heretofore sold a participation therein to a Lender, the LC Issuing Bank and such Lender agree that such participation shall be automatically canceled on the Effective Date and (ii) if the relevant Lender has heretofore sold a participation therein to any bank or financial institution that is not a Lender, the LC Issuing Bank shall procure the termination of such participation on or prior to the Effective Date. On and after the Effective Date, each Existing Letter of Credit shall be a Letter of Credit issued hereunder. (c) Notice of Issuance, Amendment, Renewal or Extension; Certain Conditions. To request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or the amendment, renewal or extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit), the Borrower shall hand deliver or telecopy (or transmit by electronic communication, if arrangements for doing so have been approved by the LC Issuing Bank) to the LC Issuing Bank and 27 the Administrative Agent (reasonably in advance of the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension) a notice requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit, or identifying the Letter of Credit to be amended, renewed or extended, and specifying the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (which shall be a Business Day), the date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply with Section 2.04(d)), the amount of such Letter of Credit, the name and address of the beneficiary thereof and such other information as shall be necessary to prepare, amend, renew or extend such Letter of Credit. If requested by the LC Issuing Bank, the Borrower also shall submit a letter of credit application on the LC Issuing Bank's standard form in connection with any request for a Letter of Credit. A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended, renewed or extended only if (and upon issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of each Letter of Credit the Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that), after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, (i) the LC Exposure will not exceed $5,000,000 and (ii) the total Revolving Exposures will not exceed the total Revolving Commitments. (d) Expiration Date. Each Letter of Credit shall expire at or before the close of business on the date that is the earlier of (i) one year after such Letter of Credit is issued (or, in the case of any renewal or extension thereof, one year after such renewal or extension) and (ii) the first anniversary of the Revolving Credit Maturity Date (the "LETTER OF CREDIT TERMINATION DATE"); provided that a Letter of Credit may provide for automatic renewal thereof on an annual basis unless notice of termination is given by the Issuing Bank so long as such Letter of Credit also provides for a final expiration date that is not later than the Letter of Credit Termination Date. (e) Participations. Effective upon the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) and without any further action on the part of the LC Issuing Bank or the Revolving Lenders, the LC Issuing Bank grants to each Revolving Lender, and each Revolving Lender acquires from the LC Issuing Bank, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Lender's Revolving Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn thereunder. Pursuant to such participations, each Revolving Lender agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the LC Issuing Bank, such Lender's Revolving Percentage of (i) each LC Disbursement made by the LC Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by the Borrower on the date due as provided in Section 2.04(f) and (ii) any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to the Borrower for any reason. Each Lender's obligation to acquire participations and make payments pursuant to this subsection is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or any reduction or termination of the 28 Commitments, and each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. (f) Reimbursement. If the LC Issuing Bank makes any LC Disbursement under a Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement by paying an amount equal to such LC Disbursement to the Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the day that such LC Disbursement is made, if the Borrower receives notice of such LC Disbursement before 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on such day, or, if such notice has not been received by the Borrower before such time on such day, then not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the next Business Day; provided that, if such LC Disbursement is at least $500,000, the Borrower may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with Section 2.03 that such payment be made with the proceeds of a Base Rate Revolving Borrowing in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, the Borrower's obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting Base Rate Revolving Borrowing. If the Borrower fails to make such payment when due, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Revolving Lender of the applicable LC Disbursement, the payment then due from the Borrower in respect thereof and such Lender's Revolving Percentage thereof. Promptly after it receives such notice, each Revolving Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent its Revolving Percentage of the payment then due from the Borrower, in the same manner as is provided in Section 2.05 with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.05(b) shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to such payment obligations of the Revolving Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the LC Issuing Bank the amounts so received by it from the Revolving Lenders. If a Revolving Lender makes a payment pursuant to this subsection to reimburse the LC Issuing Bank for any LC Disbursement (other than by funding Base Rate Revolving Loans as contemplated above), (i) such payment will not constitute a Loan and will not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement and (ii) such Revolving Lender will be subrogated to its pro rata share of the LC Issuing Bank's claim against the Borrower for such reimbursement. Promptly after the Administrative Agent receives any payment from the Borrower pursuant to this subsection, the Administrative Agent will distribute such payment to the LC Issuing Bank or, if Revolving Lenders have made payments pursuant to this subsection to reimburse the LC Issuing Bank, then to such Lenders and the LC Issuing Bank as their interests may appear. (g) Obligations Absolute. The Borrower's obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements as provided in Section 2.04(f) shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any 29 term or provision therein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by the LC Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit or (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the Borrower's obligations hereunder. None of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the LC Issuing Bank and their respective Related Parties shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the LC Issuing Bank; provided that the foregoing shall not excuse the LC Issuing Bank from liability to the Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Borrower that are caused by the LC Issuing Bank's failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. In the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the LC Issuing Bank (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), the LC Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the LC Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, either (A) accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or (B) refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit. (h) Disbursement Procedures. The LC Issuing Bank shall, promptly after its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. The LC Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of such demand for payment and whether the LC Issuing Bank has made or will make an LC Disbursement pursuant thereto; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice will not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse the LC Issuing Bank and the Revolving Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement. 30 (i) Interim Interest. Unless the Borrower reimburses an LC Disbursement in full on the day it is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the day on which such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the day on which the Borrower reimburses such LC Disbursement, at the rate per annum then applicable to Base Rate Revolving Loans; provided that, if the Borrower fails to reimburse such LC Disbursement when due pursuant to Section 2.04(f), then Section 2.12(c) and 2.12(d) shall apply. Interest accrued pursuant to this subsection shall be for the account of the LC Issuing Bank, except that a pro rata share of interest accrued on and after the day that any Revolving Lender reimburses the LC Issuing Bank for a portion of such LC Disbursement pursuant to Section 2.04(f) shall be for the account of such Lender. (j) Replacement of LC Issuing Bank. The LC Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the replaced LC Issuing Bank and the successor LC Issuing Bank. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement. At the time any such replacement becomes effective, the Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced LC Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.11(b). On and after the effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor LC Issuing Bank will have all the rights and obligations of the LC Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term "LC Issuing Bank" will be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous LC Issuing Bank, or to such successor and all previous LC Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After an LC Issuing Bank is replaced, it will remain a party hereto and will continue to have all the rights and obligations of an LC Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it before such replacement, but will not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit. (k) Cash Collateralization. (i) If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, on the Business Day that a Borrower receives notice from the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders (or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, Revolving Lenders with LC Exposures representing more than 50% of the total LC Exposure) demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this subsection, such Borrower shall deposit in its Cash Collateral Account an amount in cash equal to its LC Exposure as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon less any amounts held therein pursuant to paragraph (ii) below; provided that the obligation to deposit such cash collateral will become effective immediately, and such deposit will become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to either Borrower described in clause (h) or (i) of Article 7. Any amount so deposited (including any earnings thereon) will be withdrawn from such Cash Collateral Account by the Administrative Agent 31 and applied to pay LC Reimbursement Obligations of such Borrower as they become due; provided that (x) if at any time all Events of Default have been cured or waived, such amount (to the extent not theretofore so applied or required to be held in such Cash Collateral Account pursuant to paragraph (ii) below) will be returned to such Borrower upon its request and (y) if at any time the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, such amount (to the extent not theretofore so applied or returned) will be applied to pay the Secured Obligations as provided in the Security Agreement. (ii) No later than 30 days prior to the Revolving Maturity Date (or, if such day is not a Business Day, the immediately preceding Business Day), each Borrower shall deposit in its Cash Collateral Account an amount in cash equal to the aggregate undrawn amount of all Letters of Credit outstanding on such date for the account of such Borrower (other than any such Letter of Credit that must by its terms, without any action by the LC Issuing Bank or any other Person, expire prior to the Revolving Maturity Date) less any amounts held in its Cash Collateral Account pursuant to paragraph (i) above. If (x) any Letter of Credit is issued, renewed or extended within 30 days of the Revolving Maturity Date and (y) the expiration date of such Letter of Credit (after giving effect to any renewal or extension) could be later than the Revolving Maturity Date, the Borrower shall, on the date of such issuance, renewal or extension, deposit in its Cash Collateral Account an amount in cash equal to the aggregate undrawn amount of such Letter of Credit. Any amounts deposited pursuant to this paragraph (ii) (including any earnings thereon) will be withdrawn from such Cash Collateral Account by the Administrative Agent and applied to pay LC Reimbursement Obligations of such Borrower as they become due; provided that (x) if at any time after the Revolving Maturity Date no Default shall have occurred and be continuing, any such amount in excess of the LC Exposure of such Borrower as of such date (to the extent not theretofore so applied) will be returned to such Borrower upon its request and (y) if at any time the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, such amount (to the extent not theretofore so applied or returned) will be applied to pay the Secured Obligations as provided in the Security Agreement. Section 2.05. Funding of Revolving and Term Loans. (a) Each Lender making a Term Loan or Revolving Loan hereunder shall wire the principal amount thereof in immediately available funds, by 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the proposed date of such Loan, to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall make such funds available to the Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to an account of the Borrower maintained with the Administrative Agent in New York City and designated by the Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request; provided that Base Rate Revolving Loans made to finance the reimbursement of an LC 32 Disbursement as provided in Section 2.04(f) will be remitted by the Administrative Agent to the LC Issuing Bank. (b) Unless the Administrative Agent receives notice from a Lender before the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make its share of such Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with Section 2.05(a) and may, in reliance on such assumption, make a corresponding amount available to the Borrower. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of such Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the day such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation or (ii) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to Base Rate Loans. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, such amount shall constitute such Lender's Loan included in such Borrowing. Section 2.06. Interest Elections. (a) Each Revolving Borrowing and Term Borrowing initially shall be of the Interest Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request. Thereafter, the Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing to a different Interest Type or, in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, to continue such Borrowing for one or more additional Interest Periods, all as provided in this Section. The Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing. (b) To make an election pursuant to this Section, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent thereof by telephone by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if the Borrower were requesting that a Borrowing of the Interest Type resulting from such election be made on the effective date of such election. Each such telephonic Interest Election shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or telecopy to the Administrative Agent of a written Interest Election in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and signed by the Borrower. 33 (c) Each telephonic and written Interest Election shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02 and subsection (e) of this Section: (i) the Borrowing to which such Interest Election applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) below shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing); (ii) the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election, which shall be a Business Day; (iii) whether the resulting Borrowing is to be a Base Rate Borrowing or a Eurodollar Borrowing; and (iv) if the resulting Borrowing is to be a Eurodollar Borrowing, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of "Interest Period". If an Interest Election requests a Eurodollar Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, the Borrower will be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month's duration. (d) Promptly after it receives an Interest Election, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the relevant Class as to the details thereof and such Lender's portion of each resulting Borrowing. (e) If the Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election with respect to a Eurodollar Borrowing before the end of an Interest Period applicable thereto, such Borrowing (unless repaid) will be converted to a Base Rate Borrowing at the end of such Interest Period. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders, so notifies the Borrower, then, so long as an Event of Default is continuing, (i) no outstanding Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing and (ii) each Eurodollar Borrowing (unless repaid) will be converted to a Base Rate Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto on the date of such notice. Section 2.07. Termination or Reduction of Commitments. (a) Unless previously terminated, (i) the Term Commitments will (A) be permanently reduced, immediately upon the making of any Term Loans at any time during the 34 Term Loan Availability Period, by an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of such Term Loans and (B) to the extent then in existence, terminate on the last day of the Term Loan Availability Period and (ii) the Revolving Commitments will terminate on the Revolving Maturity Date. (b) Holdings may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Commitments of any Class; provided that (i) the amount of each reduction of the Commitments of any Class shall be an integral multiple of $100,000 but not less than $500,000 and (ii) Holdings shall not terminate or reduce the Revolving Commitments if, after giving effect thereto and to any concurrent prepayment of Revolving Loans pursuant to Section 2.10, the total Revolving Exposures would exceed the total Revolving Commitments. (c) Holdings shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Commitments under Section 2.07(b) at least three Business Days before the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly after it receives any such notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by Holdings pursuant to this Section will be irrevocable; provided that any such notice terminating the Revolving Commitments may state that it is conditioned on the effectiveness of other credit facilities, in which case such notice may be revoked by Holdings (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or before the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Any termination or reduction of the Commitments of any Class will be permanent and will be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments of such Class. Section 2.08. Payment at Maturity; Evidence of Debt. (a) Each Borrower unconditionally promises to pay to the Administrative Agent (i) on the Revolving Maturity Date, for the account of each Revolving Lender, the then unpaid principal amount of such Lender's Revolving Loans to such Borrower, and (ii) on the Term Loan Maturity Date, for the account of each Term Lender, the then unpaid principal amount of such Lender's Term Loans to such Borrower. (b) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrowers to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time. (c) The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Borrower with respect thereto, the Class and Interest Type thereof and each Interest Period (if any) applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) 35 the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender's share thereof. (d) The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to subsections (b) and (c) of this Section shall, absent manifest error, be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided that any failure by any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not affect the Borrower's obligation to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. (e) Any Lender may request that Loans of any Class made by it to any Borrower be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, the Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to the order of such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns) and in a form approved by the Administrative Agent. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 9.04) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the order of the payee named therein (or, if such promissory note is a registered note, to such payee and its registered assigns). Section 2.09. Scheduled Amortization of Term Loans. (a) Subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 2.09(b), the Borrowers shall repay Term Loans on December 31, 2005 and on the last day of each March, June, September and December thereafter to and including (i) if the Term Loan Extension Condition shall have been satisfied, December 31, 2009, in each case in an aggregate principal amount of $1,390,000 and (ii) if the Term Loan Extension Condition shall not have been satisfied, December 31, 2008, in each case in an aggregate principal amount of $1,780,000. On the Term Loan Maturity Date, the Borrowers shall repay the principal amount of the Term Loans then outstanding. (b) Any prepayment of Term Loans will be applied to reduce the subsequent scheduled repayments of the Term Loans to be made pursuant to this Section (x) if such prepayment is a mandatory prepayment pursuant to Section 2.10(d), in inverse order of maturity, and (y) if such prepayment is a voluntary prepayment pursuant to Section 2.10(a) or a mandatory prepayment pursuant to Section 2.10(b) or (c), ratably. If the aggregate amount of the Term Loans made during the Term Loan Availability Period is less than the initial aggregate amount of the Term Commitments, the scheduled repayments of the Term Loans shall be reduced ratably to an aggregate amount equal to the aggregate amount of Term Loans actually made. (c) Before any repayment of Term Loans pursuant to this Section, the Borrowers shall select the Borrowing or Borrowings to be repaid and shall notify 36 the Administrative Agent by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of such selection not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, three Business Days before the scheduled date of such repayment. Each such repayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in such Borrowing and shall be accompanied by accrued interest on the amount repaid. Section 2.10. Optional and Mandatory Prepayments. (a) Optional Prepayments. Each Borrower will have the right at any time to prepay any of its Borrowings in whole or in part, in a minimum amount of $500,000 or any larger increment of $100,000, subject to the provisions of this Section. Any such prepayment of Term Borrowings will be applied to reduce the subsequent scheduled repayments of the Term Loans as provided in Section 2.09(b). (b) Asset Dispositions and Casualty Events. Within four Business Days after any Net Proceeds are received by or on behalf of Holdings or any Subsidiary in respect of any Asset Disposition or Casualty Event, the Borrowers shall prepay Term Borrowings in an aggregate amount equal to such Net Proceeds; provided that, if Holdings shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of an Authorized Officer to the effect that (i) the Company or the applicable Subsidiary intends to apply the Net Proceeds from such Asset Disposition or Casualty Event (or a portion thereof specified in such certificate), within 180 days after receipt of such Net Proceeds, to (A) in the case of an Asset Disposition, acquire real property, equipment or other tangible assets to be used in the business of the Company or such Subsidiary or (B) in the case of a Casualty Event, repair, restore or replace the property with respect to which such Net Proceeds were received, (ii) any property so acquired will be included in the Collateral at least to the extent that the property disposed of or replaced was included therein and (iii) no Default has occurred and is continuing, then no prepayment will be required pursuant to this subsection in respect of such Net Proceeds (or the portion of such Net Proceeds specified in such certificate, if applicable), except that, if any such Net Proceeds have not been so applied by the end of such 180-day period, a prepayment will be required at that time in an amount equal to the amount of such Net Proceeds that have not been so applied. However, Holdings will not be entitled to make elections pursuant to the immediately preceding proviso with respect to Net Proceeds from Asset Dispositions aggregating more than $5,000,000 in any Fiscal Year. (c) Debt Incurrences. Within four Business Days after any Net Proceeds are received by or on behalf of Holdings or any Subsidiary in respect of any Debt Incurrence, the Borrower shall prepay Term Borrowings in an aggregate amount equal to such Net Proceeds. (d) Equity Issuances. Within four Business Days after any Net Proceeds are received by or on behalf of Holdings or any Subsidiary in respect of 37 any Specified Equity Issuance, the Borrowers shall prepay Term Borrowings in an aggregate amount equal to 25% of such Net Proceeds. (e) Allocation of Prepayments. Before any optional or mandatory prepayment of Borrowings hereunder, the Borrowers shall, subject to Section 2.09(b), select the Borrowing or Borrowings to be prepaid and shall specify such selection in the notice of such prepayment pursuant to Section 2.10(h). (f) Partial Prepayments. Each partial prepayment of a Borrowing shall be in an amount that would be permitted under Section 2.02(b) for a Borrowing of the same Interest Type, except as needed to apply fully the required amount of a mandatory prepayment. Each partial prepayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in such Borrowing. (g) Accrued Interest. Each prepayment of a Borrowing shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.12. (h) Notice of Prepayments. The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of any prepayment of any Borrowing hereunder (i) in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, three Business Days before the date of prepayment and (ii) in the case of a Base Rate Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, one Business Day before the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date, the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid and, in the case of a mandatory prepayment, a reasonably detailed calculation of the amount of such prepayment; provided that, if a notice of optional prepayment is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of the Revolving Commitments as contemplated by Section 2.07(c), then such notice of prepayment may be revoked if such notice of termination is revoked in accordance with Section 2.07(c). Promptly after it receives any such notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Section 2.11. Fees. (a) The Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender a commitment fee, which shall accrue at the Applicable Rate on the average daily unused amount of the Revolving Commitment of such Lender during the period from the Effective Date to the date on which such Revolving Commitment terminates. Accrued commitment fees will be payable in arrears on the last day of March, June, September and December of each year and the day when the Revolving Commitments terminate, commencing on the first such day to occur after the date hereof. All commitment fees will be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and will be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). For purposes of computing commitment fees, a 38 Lender's Revolving Commitment will be deemed to be used to the extent of its outstanding Revolving Loans and LC Exposure. (b) Each Borrower shall pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender a participation fee with respect to its participations in Letters of Credit, which shall accrue for each day, at the Applicable Rate that applies to Eurodollar Revolving Loans, on the amount of such Lender's LC Exposure to such Borrower (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) on such day, during the period from the Effective Date to the later of the date on which such Lender's Revolving Commitment terminates and the date on which such Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure to such Borrower, and (ii) to the LC Issuing Bank a fronting fee, which shall accrue at the rate or rates per annum specified in the Fee Letter on the average daily amount of the LC Exposure to such Borrower (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from the Effective Date to the later of the date on which the Revolving Commitments terminate and the date on which there ceases to be any LC Exposure to such Borrower, as well as the LC Issuing Bank's standard fees with respect to issuing, amending, renewing or extending any Letter of Credit for the account of such Borrower or processing drawings thereunder. Participation fees and fronting fees accrued through the last day of March, June, September and December of each year will be payable on the third Business Day following such last day, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Effective Date; provided that all such fees accrued to the date on which the Revolving Commitments terminate will be payable on such date, and any such fees accruing after such date will be payable on demand. Any other fees payable to the LC Issuing Bank pursuant to this subsection will be payable within 10 days after demand. All such participation fees and fronting fees will be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and will be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). (c) The Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender an upfront fee, which shall be payable on the Effective Date, in an amount equal to 0.25% of the sum of such Lender's Revolving Exposures, outstanding Term Loans and unused Commitments on such date. (d) The Borrowers shall pay to each Person entitled thereto the other fees described in the Fee Letter in the amounts and at the times specified therein. (e) All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent (or to the Person entitled thereto) for distribution, in the case of commitment fees, participation fees and upfront fees, to the Lenders entitled thereto. Fees paid shall not be 39 refundable under any circumstances. The Borrowers will be jointly and severally liable for the fees under subsections (a), (c) and (d). Section 2.12. Interest. (a) The Base Rate Loans shall bear interest for each day at the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate. (b) The Loans comprising each Eurodollar Borrowing shall bear interest for each Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing at the Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Rate. (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or interest on any Loan or any fee or other amount payable by any Borrower hereunder is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of overdue principal of any Loan, 2% plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in the preceding subsections of this Section or (ii) in the case of any other amount, 2% plus the rate applicable to Base Rate Loans. (d) Interest accrued on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan and, in the case of Revolving Loans, upon termination of the Revolving Commitments; provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to Section 2.12(c) shall be payable on demand, (ii) upon any repayment of any Loan (except a prepayment of a Base Rate Revolving Loan before the end of the Revolving Availability Period), interest accrued on the principal amount repaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment and (iii) upon any conversion of a Eurodollar Loan before the end of the current Interest Period therefor, interest accrued on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion. (e) All interest hereunder will be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that interest computed by reference to the Alternate Base Rate at times when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate will be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and in each case will be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). Each applicable Alternate Base Rate or Adjusted LIBO Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and its determination thereof will be conclusive absent manifest error. Section 2.13. Alternate Rate of Interest. If before the beginning of any Interest Period for a Eurodollar Borrowing: (i) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination will be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable 40 means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Interest Period; or (ii) Lenders whose Loans to be included in such Borrowing aggregate more than 50% thereof advise the Administrative Agent that the Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining such Loans for such Interest Period; then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to Holdings and the Lenders by telephone or telecopy as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies Holdings and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) any Interest Election that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Eurodollar Borrowing will be ineffective and (ii) if any Borrowing Request requests a Eurodollar Borrowing, such Borrowing will be made as a Base Rate Borrowing. Section 2.14. Increased Costs. (a) If any Change in Law shall: (i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted LIBO Rate) or the LC Issuing Bank; or (ii) impose on any Lender or the LC Issuing Bank or the London interbank market any other condition affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein; and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Eurodollar Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make Eurodollar Loans) or to increase the cost to such Lender or the LC Issuing Bank of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or to reduce any amount received or receivable by such Lender or the LC Issuing Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise) (excluding, for purposes of this Section 2.14, any such increased costs resulting from (x) Taxes or Other Taxes (as to which Section 2.16 shall govern) and (y) changes in the application, rate or basis of taxation of overall net income or overall gross income by the United States, or by the State or foreign jurisdiction under the laws of which such Lender or the LC Issuing Bank is organized or has its applicable lending office, or any political subdivision thereof), then the relevant Borrower shall pay to such Lender or the LC Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or 41 amounts as will compensate it for such additional cost incurred or reduction suffered. (b) If any Lender or the LC Issuing Bank determines that any Change in Law regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender's or the LC Issuing Bank's capital or on the capital of such Lender's or the LC Issuing Bank's holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by the LC Issuing Bank, to a level below that which such Lender or the LC Issuing Bank or such Lender's or the LC Issuing Bank's holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender's or the LC Issuing Bank's policies and the policies of such Lender's or the LC Issuing Bank's holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the relevant Borrower shall pay to such Lender or the LC Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate it or its holding company for any such reduction suffered. (c) A certificate of a Lender or the LC Issuing Bank setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate it or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in subsection (a) or (b) of this Section shall be delivered to Holdings and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The relevant Borrower shall pay such Lender or the LC Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof. (d) Failure or delay by any Lender or the LC Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section will not constitute a waiver of its right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrowers will not be required to compensate a Lender or the LC Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section for any increased cost or reduction incurred more than 270 days before it notifies Holdings of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased cost or reduction and of its intention to claim compensation therefor. However, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased cost or reduction is retroactive, then the 270-day period referred to above will be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. Section 2.15. Break Funding Payments. If (a) any principal of any Eurodollar Loan is repaid on a day other than the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) any Eurodollar Loan is converted on a day other than the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto or (c) a Borrower fails to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Revolving Loan or Term Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked under Section 2.10(h) and is revoked in accordance therewith), then the relevant Borrower shall 42 compensate each Lender for its loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. In the case of a Eurodollar Loan, such loss, cost and expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest that would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the Adjusted LIBO Rate that would have been applicable to such Loan, for the period from the date of such event to the end of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, the Interest Period that would have begun on the date of such failure), over (ii) the amount of interest that would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the beginning of such period, for dollar deposits of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the eurodollar market. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to Holdings and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The relevant Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof. Section 2.16. Taxes. (a) All payments by the Borrowers under the Loan Documents shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that, if a Borrower shall be required to deduct any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes from such payments, then (i) the sum payable will be increased as necessary so that, after all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) are made, each relevant Lender Party receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) such Borrower shall make such deductions and (iii) such Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. (b) In addition, the Borrowers shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. (c) Each Borrower shall indemnify each Lender Party, within 10 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by such Lender Party with respect to any payment by or obligation of such Borrower under the Loan Documents (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority, provided that the Borrowers shall not be required to indemnify any Lender Party for any penalties or interest that would not have been imposed but for the failure of such Lender Party to pay such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes within 180 days of the later of (x) the due date thereof and (y) the date on which such Lender Party became aware of the obligation to pay such Indemnified Taxes 43 or Other Taxes. A certificate as to the amount of any such payment delivered to Holdings by a Lender Party on its own behalf, or by the Administrative Agent on behalf of a Lender Party, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. (d) As soon as practicable after a Borrower pays any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes to a Governmental Authority, such Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. (e) Each Foreign Lender shall deliver to Holdings and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be reasonably requested by the recipient) on the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender hereunder (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Holdings or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable: (i) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN (or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto), claiming eligibility for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party, (ii) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI (or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto), (iii) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Internal Revenue Code, (x) a certificate to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not (A) a "bank" within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Internal Revenue Code, (B) a "10 percent shareholder" of a Borrower within the meaning of section 871(h)(3) or 881(c)(3)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code, or (C) a "controlled foreign corporation" described in section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Internal Revenue Code and (y) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN (or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto) or (iv) any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in United States federal withholding tax duly completed together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the relevant Borrower to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made. In addition, in each of the foregoing circumstances, each Foreign Lender shall deliver such forms promptly upon the obsolescence, expiration, or invalidity of any form previously delivered by such Foreign Lender. Each Foreign Lender shall promptly notify Holdings at any time it determines that it is no longer in a position to provide any previously delivered certificate to Holdings (or any other form of certification adopted by the United States or other taxing authorities for such purpose). In addition, each Lender that is not a Foreign Lender shall deliver to Holdings and the Administrative Agent two copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto) on or before the date such Lender becomes a party and upon the expiration of any form previously delivered by such Lender. Notwithstanding 44 any other provision of this paragraph, a Lender shall not be required to deliver any form pursuant to this paragraph that such Lender is not legally able to deliver. (f) If the Administrative Agent or a Lender receives a refund of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by a Borrower or with respect to which a Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.16, it shall pay over such refund to such Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Borrower under this Section 2.16 with respect to the Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Lender (including any Taxes imposed with respect to such refund) as is determined by the Administrative Agent or such Lender in good faith and in its sole discretion, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided that such Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay as soon as reasonably practicable the amount paid over to such Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This Section 2.16(f) shall not require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes which it deems confidential) to any Borrower or any other Person. Section 2.17. Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs. (a) The Borrowers shall make each payment under the Loan Documents (whether of principal, interest or fees, or reimbursement of LC Disbursements, or amounts payable under Section 2.14, 2.15 or 2.16 or otherwise) before the time expressly required under the relevant Loan Document for such payment (or, if no such time is expressly required, before 12:00 noon, New York City time), on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without set-off or counterclaim. Any amount received after such time on any day may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at its offices at 270 Park Avenue, New York, New York, except payments to be made directly to the LC Issuing Bank as expressly provided herein and except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 and 9.03 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto and payments pursuant to other Loan Documents shall be made to the Persons specified therein. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payment received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly after receipt thereof. If any payment under any Loan Document shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment will be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, if such payment accrues interest, interest 45 thereon will be payable for the period of such extension. All payments under each Loan Document shall be made in dollars. (b) If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, unreimbursed LC Disbursements, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, to pay interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, to pay principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due to such parties. (c) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or any of its participations in LC Disbursements resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and participations in LC Disbursements of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and participations in LC Disbursements; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this subsection shall not apply to any payment made by a Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements to any assignee or participant, other than to a Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this subsection shall apply). Each Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against such Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Borrower in the amount of such participation. (d) Unless, before the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of one or more Lender Parties hereunder, the Administrative Agent receives from the relevant Borrower notice that such Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that 46 such Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance on such assumption, distribute to each relevant Lender Party the amount due to it. In such event, if the relevant Borrower has not in fact made such payment, each Lender Party severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender Party with interest thereon, for each day from and including the day such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the day it repays the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation. (e) If any Lender fails to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to 2.04(e), 2.04(f), 2.05(b), 2.17(d) or 9.03(c), the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender's obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid. Section 2.18. Lender's Obligation to Mitigate; Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.14, or if any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.16, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.14 or 2.16, as the case may be, in the future, (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and (iii) would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The relevant Borrower shall pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

Waivers; Amendments. (a) No failure or delay by any Lender Party in exercising any right or power hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Lender Parties under the Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of any Loan Document or consent to any departure by any Credit Party 79 therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by subsection (b) of this Section, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, neither the making of a Loan nor the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of a Letter of Credit shall be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether any Lender Party had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time. (b) No Loan Document or provision thereof may be waived, amended or modified except, in the case of this Agreement, by an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by Holdings, the Company and the Required Lenders or, in the case of any other Loan Document, by an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the parties thereto with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall: (i) increase the Commitment of any Lender without its written consent; (ii) reduce the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce any fee payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender Party affected thereby; (iii) postpone the maturity of any Loan, or any scheduled date of payment of the principal amount of any Term Loan under Section 2.09, or the required date of reimbursement of any LC Disbursement, or any date for the payment of any interest or fee payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment, without the written consent of each Lender Party affected thereby; (iv) change Section 2.17(b) or 2.17(c) in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, without the written consent of each Lender; (v) change any provision of this Section or the percentage set forth in the definition of "Required Lenders" or any other provision of any Loan Document specifying the number or percentage of Lenders (or Lenders of any Class) required to take any action thereunder, without the written consent of each Lender, or each Lender of such Class, as the case may be; (vi) release any Guarantor from its Secured Guarantee (except as expressly provided in the Security Agreement), or limit its liability in 80 respect of its Secured Guarantee, without the written consent of each Lender; (vii) release all or substantially all of the Collateral from the Transaction Liens, without the written consent of each Lender; (viii) waive any condition set forth in Section 4.02 (including by amending or waiving any provision of Article 5, 6, 7 or 8 if the effect of such amendment or waiver would be to waive any such condition) for purposes of any Borrowing of Revolving Loans without the written consent of the Required Revolving Lenders; (ix) change any provision of this Agreement relating to the repayment or prepayment of Loans of any Class, without the written consent of Lenders holding (i) if there are 3 or fewer Lenders of such Class, at least 66-2/3% of the outstanding Loans and unused Commitments of such Class or (ii) if there are 4 or more Lenders of such Class, more than 50% of the outstanding Loans and unused Commitments of such Class; or (x) change any provision of any Loan Document in a manner that by its terms adversely affects the rights in respect of payments due to Lenders holding Loans of one Class differently than those holding Loans of the other Class, without the written consent of Lenders holding at least (i) if there are 3 or fewer Lenders of such Class, at least 66-2/3% of the outstanding Loans and unused Commitments of the adversely affected Class or (ii) if there are 4 or more Lenders of such Class, more than 50% of the outstanding Loans and unused Commitments of the adversely affected Class; provided further that (A) no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent or the LC Issuing Bank without its prior written consent, and (B) any waiver, amendment or modification of this Agreement that by its terms affects the rights or duties under this Agreement of one Class of Lenders (but not of any other Class of Lenders) may be effected by an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by Holdings, the Company and the requisite percentage in interest of the affected Class of Lenders that would be required to consent thereto under this Section if such Class of Lenders were the only Class of Lenders hereunder at the time. (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Required Lenders enter into or consent to any waiver, amendment or modification pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section, no consent of any other Lender will be required if, when such waiver, amendment or modification becomes effective, (i) the Commitment of 81 each Lender not consenting thereto terminates and (ii) all amounts owing to it or accrued for its account hereunder are paid in full. Section 9.03. Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver. (a) The Borrowers agree, jointly and severally, to pay (i) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Agents, the Initial Lenders and their Affiliates, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for the Administrative Agent and the Lead Arrangers, in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation and administration of the Loan Documents and any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), (ii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the LC Issuing Bank in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or any demand for payment thereunder and (iii) all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by any Lender Party, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Lender Party, in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with the Loan Documents (including its rights under this Section), the Letters of Credit or the Loans, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of the Letters of Credit or the Loans. (b) The Borrowers agree, jointly and severally, to indemnify each of the Lender Parties and their respective Related Parties (each such Person being called an "INDEMNITEE") against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including the fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for any Indemnitee, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any other agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties to the Loan Documents of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions or any other transactions contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents, (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by the LC Issuing Bank to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property currently or formerly owned or operated by any DealerTrack Company, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to any DealerTrack Company or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not be available to any Indemnitee to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and 82 nonappealable judgment to have resulted from such Indemnitee's gross negligence or willful misconduct. (c) To the extent that any Borrower fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent or the LC Issuing Bank under subsection (a) or (b) of this Section, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent or the LC Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such Lender's pro rata share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent or the LC Issuing Bank in its capacity as such. For purposes hereof, a Lender's "PRO RATA SHARE" shall be determined based on its share of the sum of the total Revolving Exposures, outstanding Term Loans and unused Commitments at the time. (d) To the extent permitted by applicable law, neither Holdings nor the Company shall assert, and each hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby or any Transaction or any other transaction contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof. (e) All amounts due under this Section shall be payable within 5 Business Days after written demand therefor. Section 9.04. Successors and Assigns. (a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding on and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of the LC Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), except that neither Holdings nor the Company may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by Holdings or the Company without such consent shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (except the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of the LC Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit) and, to the extent expressly provided herein, the Related Parties of the Lender Parties) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement. (b) Any Lender may assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of any 83 Commitment it has at the time and any Loans at the time owing to it); provided that: (i) each of (A) the Administrative Agent, (B) in the case of an assignment of all or a portion of a Revolving Commitment or any Lender's obligations in respect of its LC Exposure, the LC Issuing Bank and (C) except (x) in the case of an assignment to a Lender or a Lender Affiliate or (y) if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Holdings must give their prior written consent to such assignment (which consents shall not be unreasonably withheld); (ii) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement, except that this clause (ii) shall not prohibit the assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender's rights and obligations in respect of one Class of Commitments or Loans; (iii) unless each of Holdings and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent, the amount of the Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date on which the relevant Assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $5,000,000 or, if only Term Loans are being assigned, shall not be less than $1,000,000; provided that this clause (iii) shall not apply to an assignment to a Lender or a Lender Affiliate or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender's Commitment or Loans; (iv) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500; provided that only one such fee shall be due in respect of a simultaneous assignment to more than one Lender Affiliate; and (v) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a completed Administrative Questionnaire. Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to subsection (d) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment covering all of the assigning Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to 84 be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 and 9.03). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this subsection shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with subsection (e) of this Section. (c) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices in New York City a copy of each Assignment delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, their respective Commitments and the principal amounts of the Loans and LC Disbursements owing to each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the "REGISTER"). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the parties hereto may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by any party hereto at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. (d) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee's completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in subsection (b) of this Section and any written consent to such assignment required by subsection (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this subsection. (e) Any Lender may, without the consent of or notice to Holdings, the Company or any other Lender Party, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities ("PARTICIPANTS") in all or a portion of such Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender's obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) Holdings, the Company and the other Lender Parties shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce the Loan Documents and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of the Loan Documents; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification 85 or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 9.02(b) that affects such Participant. Subject to subsection (f) of this Section, each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14, 2.15 and 2.16 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.08 as though it were a Lender, provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.17(c) as though it were a Lender. (f) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.14 or 2.16 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with Holdings' prior written consent. A Participant shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.16 unless Holdings is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of Holdings and the Company, to comply with Section 2.16(e) as though it were a Lender. (g) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. Section 9.05. Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Credit Parties in the Loan Documents and in certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to the Loan Documents shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of any Loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that any Lender Party may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any principal of or accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or other amount payable hereunder is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is outstanding or any Commitment has not expired or terminated. The provisions of Sections 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 and 9.03 and Article 8 shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the Financing Transactions, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof. 86 Section 9.06. Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent or the LC Issuing Bank constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement (i) will become effective when the Administrative Agent shall have signed this Agreement and received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto and (ii) thereafter will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy will be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. Section 9.07. Severability. If any provision of any Loan Document is invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction then, to the fullest extent permitted by law, (i) such provision shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent (but only to the extent) of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability, (ii) the other provisions of the Loan Documents shall remain in full force and effect in such jurisdiction and shall be liberally construed in favor of the Lender Parties in order to carry out the intentions of the parties thereto as nearly as may be possible and (iii) the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of any such provision in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity, legality or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction. Section 9.08. Right of Set-off. Each Lender and each of their respective Lender Affiliates is authorized at any time when (i) an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, or (ii) any Borrower Loan Obligation shall not have been paid when due, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by such Lender or Lender Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Borrower (other than any such obligations arising under or in respect of any agreement or other arrangement entered into in the ordinary course of business of such Borrower pursuant to which such Lender or Lender Affiliate is a customer of such Borrower, as to which any rights of setoff shall be determined without reference to the provisions of this Section) against any Borrower Loan Obligations now or hereafter existing and held by such Lender or Lender Affiliate, irrespective of whether or not such Lender or Lender Affiliate shall have made any demand therefor and although such obligations may be unmatured. The rights of each Lender and each such Lender Affiliate under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender or Lender Affiliate may have. 87 Section 9.09. Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process. (a) This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the law of the State of New York. (b) Each of Holdings and the Company irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in New York County and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any relevant appellate court, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to any Loan Document, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each party hereto irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State court or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court. Each party hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in any Loan Document shall affect any right that any Lender Party may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to any Loan Document against any Credit Party or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction. (c) Each of Holdings and the Company irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to any Loan Document in any court referred to in subsection (b) of this Section. Each party hereto irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of any such suit, action or proceeding in any such court. (d) Each party hereto irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 9.01. Nothing in any Loan Document will affect the right of any party hereto to serve process in any other manner permitted by law. Section 9.10. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT 88 IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION. Section 9.11. Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and shall not affect the construction of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement. Section 9.12. Confidentiality. Each Lender Party agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates' directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority, (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party to this Agreement, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedy hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to any Loan Document or the enforcement of any right thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any actual or prospective assignee of or Participant in any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to any Credit Party and its obligations, (g) with the consent of Holdings or the applicable Credit Party or (h) to the extent such Information either (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (ii) becomes available to any Lender Party on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than a Credit Party. For the purposes of this Section, "INFORMATION" means all information received from any Credit Party relating to any Credit Party or its business, other than any such information that is available to any Lender Party on a nonconfidential basis before disclosure by such Credit Party. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information. 89 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be duly executed by their respective authorized officers as of the day and year first above written.

(ii) If all the capital stock of a Guarantor or all the assets of a Guarantor are sold to a Person other than a DealerTrack Company in a transaction permitted by Section 6.05 of the Credit Agreement (any such sale, a "SALE OF GUARANTOR"), the Administrative Agent shall release such Guarantor from its Secured Guarantee; provided that, if such sale is a Prepayment Event, arrangements satisfactory to the Administrative Agent shall have been made to apply the Net Proceeds thereof as required by the Credit Agreement.

(b) Schedule 1 lists all Equity Interests in Subsidiaries and Affiliates owned by such Lien Grantor as of the Effective Date. Such Lien Grantor holds all such Equity Interests directly (i.e., not through a Subsidiary, a Securities Intermediary or any other Person). (c) Schedule 2 lists, as of the Effective Date, (i) all Securities owned by such Lien Grantor (except Securities evidencing Equity Interests in Subsidiaries and Affiliates) and (ii) all Securities Accounts to which Financial Assets are credited in respect of which such Lien Grantor owns Security Entitlements.

None of such Pledged Equity Interests is subject to any option to purchase or similar right of any Person. Such Lien Grantor is not and will not become a party to or otherwise bound by any agreement (except the Loan Documents) which restricts in any manner the rights of any present or future holder of any Pledged Equity Interest with respect thereto. (e) Such Lien Grantor has good and marketable title to all its Collateral (subject to exceptions that are, in the aggregate, not material), free and clear of any Lien other than Permitted Liens. 14 (f) Such Lien Grantor has not performed any acts that might prevent the Administrative Agent from enforcing any of the provisions of the Security Documents or that would limit the Administrative Agent in any such enforcement. No financing statement, security agreement, mortgage or similar or equivalent document or instrument covering all or part of the Collateral owned by such Lien Grantor is on file or of record in any jurisdiction in which such filing or recording would be effective to perfect or record a Lien on such Collateral, except financing statements, mortgages or other similar or equivalent documents with respect to Permitted Liens. After the Effective Date, no Collateral owned by such Lien Grantor will be in the possession or under the Control of any other Person having a claim thereto or security interest therein, other than a Permitted Lien. (g) The Transaction Liens on all Collateral owned by such Lien Grantor (i) have been validly created, (ii) will attach to each item of such Collateral on the Effective Date (or, if such Lien Grantor first obtains rights thereto on a later date, on such later date) and (iii) when so attached, will secure all the Secured Obligations or such Lien Grantor's Secured Guarantee, as the case may be. (h) Such Lien Grantor has delivered a Perfection Certificate to the Administrative Agent. The information set forth therein is correct and complete as of the Effective Date. (i) When UCC financing statements describing the Collateral as "all personal property" have been filed in the applicable offices specified in such Perfection Certificate, the Transaction Liens will constitute perfected security interests in the Collateral owned by such Lien Grantor to the extent that a security interest therein may be perfected by filing pursuant to the UCC, prior to all Liens and rights of others therein except Permitted Liens. When, in addition to the filing of such UCC financing statements, the applicable Intellectual Property Filings have been made with respect to such Lien Grantor's Recordable Intellectual Property (including any future filings required pursuant to Sections 5(a) and 8(a)), the Transaction Liens will constitute perfected security interests in all right, title and interest of such Lien Grantor in its Recordable Intellectual Property to the extent that security interests therein may be perfected by such filings, prior to all Liens and rights of others therein except Permitted Liens. Except for the filing of such UCC financing statements and such Intellectual Property Filings, no registration, recordation or filing with any governmental body, agency or official is required in connection with the execution or delivery of the Security Documents or is necessary for the validity or enforceability thereof or for the perfection or due recordation of the Transaction Liens or for the enforcement of the Transaction Liens. (j) Such Lien Grantor's Collateral is insured as required by the Credit Agreement. 15 SECTION 5. Further Assurances; General Covenants.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, such Lien Grantor authorizes the Administrative Agent to execute and file such financing statements or continuation statements without such Lien Grantor's signature appearing thereon. Such Lien Grantor agrees that a carbon, photographic, photostatic or other reproduction of this Agreement or of a financing statement is sufficient as a financing statement. Such Lien Grantor constitutes the Administrative Agent its attorney-in-fact to execute and file all Intellectual Property Filings and other filings required or so requested for the foregoing purposes, all acts of such attorney being hereby ratified and confirmed; and such power, being coupled with an interest, shall be irrevocable until all the Transaction Liens granted by such Lien Grantor terminate pursuant to Section 22. The relevant Borrower will pay the costs of, or incidental to, any Intellectual Property Filings and any recording or filing of any financing or continuation statements or other documents recorded or filed pursuant hereto. (b) Except as permitted by Section 6.05 of the Credit Agreement, such Lien Grantor will not sell, lease, exchange, assign or otherwise dispose of, or grant any option with respect to, any of its Collateral. The Administrative Agent will, at the Borrowers' expense, execute and deliver to the relevant Lien Grantor such documents as such Lien Grantor shall reasonably request to evidence the fact 16 that any asset sold or disposed of in compliance with Section 6.05 of the Credit Agreement is no longer subject to a Transaction Lien. (c) Such Lien Grantor will, promptly upon request, provide to the Administrative Agent all information and evidence concerning such Lien Grantor's Collateral that the Administrative Agent may reasonably request from time to time to enable it to enforce the provisions of the Security Documents.

Each Lien Grantor represents, warrants and covenants as follows: (a) Such Lien Grantor will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause to be collected from its account debtors, when due, all amounts owing under its Accounts (including delinquent Accounts, which will be collected in accordance with lawful collection procedures) and will apply all amounts collected thereon, forthwith upon receipt thereof, to the outstanding balances of such Accounts. Subject to the rights of the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties hereunder if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, such Lien Grantor may allow in the ordinary course of business as adjustments to amounts owing under its Accounts (i) any extension or renewal of the time or times for payment, or settlement for less than the total unpaid balance, that such Lien Grantor finds appropriate in accordance with sound business judgment and (ii) refunds or credits, all in the ordinary course of business and consistent with such Lien Grantor's historical collection practices. The costs and expenses (including attorney's fees) of collection, whether incurred by such Lien Grantor or the Administrative Agent, shall be paid by such Lien Grantor.

Funds credited to any such account shall be transferred to such Deposit Account as designated by such Lien Grantor; provided that, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Administrative Agent may designate the Deposit Account to which such funds are transferred. (c) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, such Lien Grantor will, if requested to do so by the Administrative Agent, promptly notify (and such Lien Grantor authorizes the Administrative Agent so to notify) each account debtor in respect of any of its Accounts that such Accounts have been assigned to the Administrative Agent hereunder, and that any payments due 17 or to become due in respect of such Accounts are to be made directly to the Administrative Agent or its designee.

Within 30 days after the end of each Fiscal Quarter thereafter, it will sign and deliver to the Administrative Agent an appropriate Intellectual Property Security Agreement covering any Recordable Intellectual Property owned by it on the last day of such Fiscal Quarter that is not covered by any previous Intellectual Property Security Agreement so signed and delivered by it. In each case, it will promptly make all Intellectual Property Filings necessary to record the Transaction Liens on such Recordable Intellectual Property. (b) Such Lien Grantor will notify the Administrative Agent promptly if it knows that any application or registration relating to any Recordable Intellectual Property owned or licensed by it may become abandoned or dedicated to the public, or of any adverse determination or development (including the institution of, or any adverse determination or development in, any proceeding in the United States Copyright Office, the United States Patent and Trademark Office or any court) regarding such Lien Grantor's ownership of such Recordable Intellectual Property, its right to register or patent the same, or its right to keep and maintain the same. If any of such Lien Grantor's rights to any Recordable Intellectual Property are infringed, misappropriated or diluted by a third party, such Lien Grantor will notify the Administrative Agent within 30 days after it learns thereof and will, unless such Lien Grantor shall reasonably determine that such action would be of negligible value, economic or otherwise, promptly sue for infringement, misappropriation or dilution and to recover any and all damages for such infringement, misappropriation or dilution, and take such other actions as such Lien Grantor shall reasonably deem appropriate under the circumstances to protect such Recordable Intellectual Property. SECTION 9. Investment Property. Each Lien Grantor represents, warrants and covenants as follows: 18 (a) Certificated Securities. On the Effective Date (in the case of an Original Lien Grantor) or the date on which it signs and delivers its first Security Agreement Supplement (in the case of any other Lien Grantor), such Lien Grantor will deliver to the Administrative Agent as Collateral hereunder all certificates representing Pledged Certificated Securities then owned by such Lien Grantor. Thereafter, such Lien Grantor will, within five Business Days after it acquires any other certificate representing a Pledged Certificated Security, deliver such certificate to the Administrative Agent as Collateral hereunder. The provisions of this subsection are subject to the limitation in Section 13(j) in the case of voting Equity Interests in an Excluded Subsidiary. (b) Uncertificated Securities. On the Effective Date (in the case of an Original Lien Grantor) or the date on which it signs and delivers its first Security Agreement Supplement (in the case of any other Lien Grantor), such Lien Grantor will enter into (and cause the relevant issuer to enter into) an Issuer Control Agreement in respect of each Pledged Uncertificated Security then owned by such Lien Grantor and deliver such Issuer Control Agreement to the Administrative Agent (which shall enter into the same). Thereafter, whenever such Lien Grantor acquires any other Pledged Uncertificated Security, such Lien Grantor will enter into (and cause the relevant issuer to enter into) an Issuer Control Agreement in respect of such Pledged Uncertificated Security and deliver such Issuer Control Agreement to the Administrative Agent (which shall enter into the same). The provisions of this subsection are subject to the limitation in Section 13(j) in the case of voting Equity Interests in an Excluded Subsidiary. (c) Security Entitlements. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent may, by notice to Holdings or such Lien Grantor, require that such Lien Grantor enter into (and cause the relevant Securities Intermediary to enter into) a Securities Account Control Agreement in respect of each Security Entitlement owned by it and the Securities Account to which the underlying Financial Asset is credited and deliver such Securities Account Control Agreement to the Administrative Agent (which shall enter into the same). Thereafter, whenever such Lien Grantor acquires any other Security Entitlement, such Lien Grantor will, as promptly as practicable, cause the underlying Financial Asset to be credited to a Controlled Securities Account. (d) Perfection as to Certificated Securities. When such Lien Grantor delivers the certificate representing any Pledged Certificated Security owned by it to the Administrative Agent and complies with Section 13(h) in connection with such delivery, (i) the Transaction Lien on such Pledged Certificated Security will be perfected, subject to no prior Liens or rights of others, (ii) the Administrative Agent will have Control of such Pledged Certificated Security and (iii) the 19 Administrative Agent will be a protected purchaser (within the meaning of UCC Section 8-303) thereof. (e) Perfection as to Uncertificated Securities. When such Lien Grantor, the Administrative Agent and the issuer of any Pledged Uncertificated Security owned by such Lien Grantor enter into an Issuer Control Agreement with respect thereto, (i) the Transaction Lien on such Pledged Uncertificated Security will be perfected, subject to no prior Liens or rights of others, (ii) the Administrative Agent will have Control of such Pledged Uncertificated Security and (iii) the Administrative Agent will be a protected purchaser (within the meaning of UCC Section 8-303) thereof. (f) Perfection as to Security Entitlements. So long as the Financial Asset underlying any Security Entitlement owned by such Lien Grantor is credited to a Controlled Securities Account, (i) the Transaction Lien on such Security Entitlement will be perfected, subject to no prior Liens or rights of others (except Liens and rights of the relevant Securities Intermediary that are Permitted Liens), (ii) the Administrative Agent will have Control of such Security Entitlement and (iii) no action based on an adverse claim to such Security Entitlement or such Financial Asset, whether framed in conversion, replevin, constructive trust, equitable lien or other theory, may be asserted against the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party. (g) Agreement as to Applicable Jurisdiction. In respect of all material Security Entitlements owned by such Lien Grantor, and all Securities Accounts to which the related Financial Assets are credited, the Securities Intermediary's jurisdiction (determined as provided in UCC Section 8-110(e)) will at all times be located in the United States. (h) Delivery of Pledged Certificates. All Pledged Certificates, when delivered to the Administrative Agent, will be in suitable form for transfer by delivery, or accompanied by duly executed instruments of transfer or assignment in blank, all in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. (i) Excluded Subsidiaries. A Lien Grantor will not be obligated to comply with the provisions of this Section 9 at any time with respect to any voting Equity Interest in an Excluded Subsidiary if and to the extent (but only to the extent) that such voting Equity Interest is excluded from the Transaction Liens at such time pursuant to clause (B) of the proviso at the end of Section 3(a) and/or the comparable provisions of one or more Security Agreement Supplements. SECTION 10. Deposit Accounts. Each Lien Grantor represents, warrants and covenants as follows: 20 (a) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent may, by notice to Holdings or such Lien Grantor, require that all cash owned by such Lien Grantor be deposited, upon or promptly after the receipt thereof, in one or more Controlled Deposit Accounts. Each Controlled Deposit Account will be operated as provided in Section 12. (b) In respect of each Controlled Deposit Account, the Depositary Bank's jurisdiction (determined as provided in UCC Section 9-304) will at all times be a jurisdiction in which Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code is in effect. (c) So long as the Administrative Agent has Control of a Controlled Deposit Account, the Transaction Lien on such Controlled Deposit Account will be perfected, subject to no prior Liens or rights of others (except the Depositary Bank's right to deduct its normal operating charges and any uncollected funds previously credited thereto). SECTION 11. Cash Collateral Accounts. (a) If and when required for purposes hereof, the Administrative Agent will establish (a) with respect to each Borrower an account to be designated as such Borrower's "Cash Collateral Account" (its "CASH COLLATERAL ACCOUNT") in the name and under the exclusive control of the Administrative Agent, into which all amounts owned by such Borrower that are to be deposited therein pursuant to the Loan Documents shall be deposited from time to time. Each Cash Collateral Account will be operated as provided in this Section and Section 12. (b) The Administrative Agent shall deposit the following amounts, as and when received by it, in the applicable Cash Collateral Account: (i) each amount required by Section 2.04(k) of the Credit Agreement to be deposited therein to cover outstanding LC Reimbursement Obligations; and (ii) each Cash Distribution required by Section 15 to be deposited therein. (c) The Administrative Agent shall maintain such records and/or establish such sub-accounts as shall be required to enable it to identify the amounts held in each Cash Collateral Account from time to time pursuant to each clause of subsection ERROR! REFERENCE SOURCE NOT FOUND., as applicable. (d) Unless (x) an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Required Lenders shall have instructed the Administrative Agent to stop withdrawing amounts from the Cash Collateral Accounts pursuant 21 to this subsection or (y) the maturity of the Loans shall have been accelerated pursuant to Article 7 of the Credit Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall withdraw amounts from the Cash Collateral Accounts and apply them for the following purposes: (i) any amount deposited in a Cash Collateral Account pursuant to Section 2.04(k) of the Credit Agreement to cover outstanding LC Reimbursement Obligations shall be withdrawn and applied to pay such LC Reimbursement Obligations as they become due; provided that such amount (to the extent not theretofore so applied) shall be withdrawn and returned to the relevant Borrower if and when permitted by said Section 2.04(k); and (ii) any Cash Distribution deposited in a Cash Collateral Account pursuant to Section 15 shall, at the relevant Borrower's request, (x) be withdrawn and applied to pay Secured Obligations that are then due and payable or (y) if no Default has occurred and is continuing, be withdrawn and returned to such Borrower. SECTION 12. Operation of Collateral Accounts. (a) All Cash Distributions received with respect to assets held in any Collateral Account shall be deposited therein promptly upon receipt thereof. (b) Funds held in any Controlled Securities Account may, until withdrawn, be invested and reinvested in such Permitted Investments as the relevant Lien Grantor shall request from time to time; provided that, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Administrative Agent may select such Permitted Investments. (c) Funds held in any Deposit Account or any Cash Collateral Account may, until withdrawn, be invested and reinvested in such Permitted Investments as the relevant Lien Grantor shall request from time to time; provided that if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Administrative Agent may select such Permitted Investments. (d) With respect to each Collateral Account (except a Cash Collateral Account, as to which Section 11 applies), the Administrative Agent will instruct the relevant Securities Intermediary or Depositary Bank that the relevant Lien Grantor may withdraw, or direct the disposition of, funds held therein unless and until the Administrative Agent rescinds such instruction. The Administrative Agent will not rescind such instructions unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. 22 (e) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Administrative Agent may (i) retain, or instruct the relevant Securities Intermediary or Depositary Bank to retain, all cash and investments then held in any Collateral Account, (ii) liquidate, or instruct the relevant Securities Intermediary or Depositary Bank to liquidate, any or all investments held therein and/or (iii) withdraw any amounts held therein and apply such amounts as provided in Section 17. (f) If immediately available cash on deposit in any Collateral Account is not sufficient to make any distribution or withdrawal to be made pursuant hereto, the Administrative Agent will cause to be liquidated, as promptly as practicable, such investments held in or credited to such Collateral Account as shall be required to obtain sufficient cash to make such distribution or withdrawal and, notwithstanding any other provision hereof, such distribution or withdrawal shall not be made until such liquidation has taken place. SECTION 13. Transfer Of Record Ownership. At any time when an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Administrative Agent may (and to the extent that action by it is required, the relevant Lien Grantor, if directed to do so by the Administrative Agent, will as promptly as practicable) cause each of the Pledged Securities (or any portion thereof specified in such direction) to be transferred of record into the name of the Administrative Agent or its nominee. Each Lien Grantor will take any and all actions reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent to facilitate compliance with this Section. If the provisions of this Section are implemented, Section 9(b) shall not thereafter apply to any Pledged Security that is registered in the name of the Administrative Agent or its nominee. The Administrative Agent will promptly give to the relevant Lien Grantor copies of any notices and other communications received by the Administrative Agent with respect to Pledged Securities registered in the name of the Administrative Agent or its nominee. SECTION 14. Right to Vote Securities. (a) Unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lien Grantor will have the right, from time to time, to vote and to give consents, ratifications and waivers with respect to any Pledged Security owned by it and the Financial Asset underlying any Pledged Security Entitlement owned by it, and the Administrative Agent will, upon receiving a written request from such Lien Grantor, deliver to such Lien Grantor or as specified in such request such proxies, powers of attorney, consents, ratifications and waivers in respect of any such Pledged Security that is registered in the name of the Administrative Agent or its nominee or any such Pledged Security Entitlement as to which the Administrative Agent or its nominee is the Entitlement Holder, in each case as shall be specified in such request and be in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. Unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Administrative Agent will 23 have no right to take any action which the owner of a Pledged Partnership Interest or Pledged LLC Interest is entitled to take with respect thereto, except the right to receive payments and other distributions to the extent provided herein. (b) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Administrative Agent will have the right to the extent permitted by law (and, in the case of a Pledged Partnership Interest or Pledged LLC Interest, by the relevant partnership agreement, limited liability company agreement, operating agreement or other governing document) to vote, to give consents, ratifications and waivers and to take any other action with respect to the Pledged Investment Property, the other Pledged Equity Interests (if any) and the Financial Assets underlying the Pledged Security Entitlements, with the same force and effect as if the Administrative Agent were the absolute and sole owner thereof, and each Lien Grantor will take all such action as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request from time to time to give effect to such right. SECTION 15. Certain Cash Distributions. Cash Distributions with respect to assets held in a Collateral Account shall be deposited and held therein, or withdrawn therefrom, as provided in Section 12. Cash Distributions with respect to any Pledged Equity Interest or Pledged Debt that is not held in a Collateral Account (whether held in the name of a Lien Grantor or in the name of the Administrative Agent or its nominee) shall be deposited, promptly upon receipt thereof, in a Controlled Deposit Account or other Deposit Account permitted by Section 10(d) of the relevant Lien Grantor; provided that, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Administrative Agent may deposit, or direct the recipient thereof to deposit, each such Cash Distribution in the relevant Lien Grantor's Cash Collateral Account. SECTION 16. Remedies upon Event of Default. (a) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Administrative Agent may exercise (or cause its sub-agents to exercise) any or all of the remedies available to it (or to such sub-agents) under the Security Documents. (b) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Administrative Agent may exercise on behalf of the Secured Parties all the rights of a secured party under the UCC (whether or not in effect in the jurisdiction where such rights are exercised) with respect to any Collateral and, in addition, the Administrative Agent may, without being required to give any notice, except as herein provided or as may be required by mandatory provisions of law, withdraw all cash held in the Collateral Accounts and apply such cash as provided in Section 17 and, if there shall be no such cash or if such cash shall be insufficient to pay all the Secured Obligations in full, sell, lease, license or otherwise dispose of the Collateral or any part thereof. 24 Notice of any such sale or other disposition shall be given to the relevant Lien Grantor(s) as required by Section 19. (c) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing: (i) the Administrative Agent may license or sublicense, whether general, special or otherwise, and whether on an exclusive or non-exclusive basis, any Pledged intellectual property (including any Pledged Recordable Intellectual Property) throughout the world for such term or terms, on such conditions and in such manner as the Administrative Agent shall in its sole discretion determine; provided that such licenses or sublicenses do not conflict with any existing license of which the Administrative Agent shall have received a copy; (ii) the Administrative Agent may (without assuming any obligation or liability thereunder), at any time and from time to time, in its sole and reasonable discretion, enforce (and shall have the exclusive right to enforce) against any licensee or sublicensee all rights and remedies of any Lien Grantor in, to and under any of its Pledged intellectual property and take or refrain from taking any action under any thereof, and each Lien Grantor releases the Administrative Agent and each other Secured Party from liability for, and agrees to hold the Administrative Agent and each other Secured Party free and harmless from and against any claims and expenses arising out of, any lawful action so taken or omitted to be taken with respect thereto, except for claims and expenses arising from the Administrative Agent's or such Secured Party's gross negligence or willful misconduct; and (iii) upon request by the Administrative Agent (which shall not be construed as implying any limitation on its rights or powers), each Lien Grantor will execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a power of attorney, in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, for the implementation of any sale, lease, license or other disposition of any of such Lien Grantor's Pledged intellectual property or any action related thereto. In connection with any such disposition, but subject to any confidentiality restrictions imposed on such Lien Grantor in any license or similar agreement, such Lien Grantor will use reasonable efforts to supply to the Administrative Agent its know-how and expertise relating to the relevant intellectual property or the products or services made or rendered in connection with such intellectual property, and to the distribution of said products or services. 25 SECTION 17. Application of Proceeds. (a) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Administrative Agent may apply (i) any cash held in the Collateral Accounts and (ii) the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of all or any part of the Collateral, in the following order of priorities: first, to pay the expenses of such sale or other disposition, including reasonable compensation to agents of and counsel for the Administrative Agent, and all expenses, liabilities and advances incurred or made by the Administrative Agent in connection with the Security Documents, and any other amounts then due and payable to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 18 or pursuant to Section 9.03 of the Credit Agreement; second, to pay the unpaid principal of the Secured Obligations ratably (or provide for the payment thereof pursuant to Section 17(b)), until payment in full of the principal of all Secured Obligations shall have been made (or so provided for); third, to pay ratably all interest (including Post-Petition Interest) and fees on the Secured Obligations, until payment in full of all such interest and fees shall have been made; fourth, to pay all other Secured Obligations ratably (or provide for the payment thereof pursuant to Section 17(b)), until payment in full of all such other Secured Obligations shall have been made (or so provided for); and finally, to pay to the relevant Lien Grantor, or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct, any surplus then remaining from the proceeds of the Collateral owned by it; provided that Collateral owned by a Subsidiary Guarantor and any proceeds thereof shall be applied pursuant to the foregoing clauses first, second, third and fourth only to the extent permitted by the limitation in Section 2(h). The Administrative Agent may make such distributions hereunder in cash or in kind or, on a ratable basis, in any combination thereof. (b) If at any time any portion of any monies collected or received by the Administrative Agent would, but for the provisions of this Section 17(b), be payable pursuant to Section 17(a) in respect of a Contingent Secured Obligation, the Administrative Agent shall not apply any monies to pay such Contingent Secured Obligation but instead shall request the holder thereof, at least 10 days before each proposed distribution hereunder, to notify the Administrative Agent as to the maximum amount of such Contingent Secured Obligation if then 26 ascertainable (e.g., in the case of a letter of credit, the maximum amount available for subsequent drawings thereunder). If the holder of such Contingent Secured Obligation does not notify the Administrative Agent of the maximum ascertainable amount thereof at least two Business Days before such distribution, such holder will not be entitled to share in such distribution. If such holder does so notify the Administrative Agent as to the maximum ascertainable amount thereof, the Administrative Agent will allocate to such holder a portion of the monies to be distributed in such distribution, calculated as if such Contingent Secured Obligation were outstanding in such maximum ascertainable amount. However, the Administrative Agent will not apply such portion of such monies to pay such Contingent Secured Obligation, but instead will hold such monies or invest such monies in Permitted Investments. All such monies and Permitted Investments and all proceeds thereof will constitute Collateral hereunder, but will be subject to distribution in accordance with this Section 17(b) rather than Section 17(a). The Administrative Agent will hold all such monies and Permitted Investments and the net proceeds thereof in trust until all or part of such Contingent Secured Obligation becomes a Non-Contingent Secured Obligation, whereupon the Administrative Agent at the request of the relevant Secured Party will apply the amount so held in trust to pay such Non-Contingent Secured Obligation; provided that, if the other Secured Obligations theretofore paid pursuant to the same clause of Section 17(a) (i.e., clause second or fourth) were not paid in full, the Administrative Agent will apply the amount so held in trust to pay the same percentage of such Non-Contingent Secured Obligation as the percentage of such other Secured Obligations theretofore paid pursuant to the same clause of Section 17(a). If (i) the holder of such Contingent Secured Obligation shall advise the Administrative Agent that no portion thereof remains in the category of a Contingent Secured Obligation and (ii) the Administrative Agent still holds any amount held in trust pursuant to this Section 17(b) in respect of such Contingent Secured Obligation (after paying all amounts payable pursuant to the preceding sentence with respect to any portions thereof that became Non-Contingent Secured Obligations), such remaining amount will be applied by the Administrative Agent in the order of priorities set forth in Section 17(a). (c) In making the payments and allocations required by this Section, the Administrative Agent may rely upon information supplied to it pursuant to Section 21(c). All distributions made by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section shall be final (except in the event of manifest error) and the Administrative Agent shall have no duty to inquire as to the application by any Secured Party of any amount distributed to it. SECTION 18. Fees and Expenses; Indemnification. (a) Each Borrower will forthwith upon demand pay to the Administrative Agent: 27 (i) the amount of any taxes that the Administrative Agent may have been required to pay by reason of the Transaction Liens or to free any Collateral from any other Lien thereon; (ii) the amount of any and all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, including transfer taxes and reasonable fees and expenses of counsel and other experts, that the Administrative Agent may incur in connection with (x) the administration or enforcement of the Security Documents, including such expenses as are incurred to preserve the value of the Collateral or the validity, perfection, rank or value of any Transaction Lien, (y) the collection, sale or other disposition of any Collateral or (z) the exercise by the Administrative Agent of any of its rights or powers under the Security Documents; and (iii) the amount required to indemnify the Administrative Agent for, or hold it harmless and defend it against, any loss, liability or expense (including the reasonable fees and expenses of its counsel and any experts or sub-agents appointed by it hereunder) incurred or suffered by the Administrative Agent in connection with the Security Documents, except to the extent that such loss, liability or expense arises from the Administrative Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct. Any such amount not paid to the Administrative Agent on demand will bear interest for each day thereafter until paid at a rate per annum equal to the sum of 2% plus the rate applicable to Base Rate Loans for such day. (b) If any transfer tax, documentary stamp tax or other tax is payable in connection with any transfer or other transaction provided for in the Security Documents, the relevant Borrower will pay such tax and provide any required tax stamps to the Administrative Agent or as otherwise required by law. (c) Each Borrower shall indemnify each of the Secured Parties, their respective affiliates and the respective directors, officers, agents and employees of the foregoing (each an "INDEMNITEE") against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all liabilities, losses, damages, costs and expenses of any kind (including reasonable expenses of investigation by engineers, environmental consultants and similar technical personnel and reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel) arising out of, or in connection with any and all Environmental Liabilities. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Lien Grantor waives all rights for contribution and all other rights of recovery with respect to liabilities, losses, damages, costs and expenses arising under or related to Environmental Laws that it might have by statute or otherwise against any Indemnitee. 28 SECTION 19. Authority to Administer Collateral. Each Lien Grantor authorizes the Administrative Agent to file UCC financing statements against it describing the Collateral as "all personal property". Each Lien Grantor irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent its true and lawful attorney, with full power of substitution, in the name of such Lien Grantor, any Secured Party or otherwise, for the sole use and benefit of the Secured Parties, but at the Borrowers' expense, to the extent permitted by law to exercise, at any time and from time to time while an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, all or any of the following powers with respect to all or any of such Lien Grantor's Collateral: (a) to demand, sue for, collect, receive and give acquittance for any and all monies due or to become due upon or by virtue thereof, (b) to settle, compromise, compound, prosecute or defend any action or proceeding with respect thereto, (c) to sell, lease, license or otherwise dispose of the same or the proceeds or avails thereof, as fully and effectually as if the Administrative Agent were the absolute owner thereof, and (d) to extend the time of payment of any or all thereof and to make any allowance or other adjustment with reference thereto; provided that, except in the case of Collateral that is perishable or threatens to decline speedily in value or is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market, the Administrative Agent will give the relevant Lien Grantor at least ten days' prior written notice of the time and place of any public sale thereof or the time after which any private sale or other intended disposition thereof will be made. Any such notice shall (i) contain the information specified in UCC Section 9-613, (ii) be Authenticated and (iii) be sent to the parties required to be notified pursuant to UCC Section 9-611(c); provided that, if the Administrative Agent fails to comply with this sentence in any respect, its liability for such failure shall be limited to the liability (if any) imposed on it as a matter of law under the UCC. SECTION 20. Limitation on Duty in Respect of Collateral. Beyond the exercise of reasonable care in the custody and preservation thereof, the Administrative Agent will have no duty as to any Collateral in its possession or control or in the possession or control of any sub-agent or bailee or any income therefrom or as to the preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto. The Administrative Agent will be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Collateral in its possession or control if such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which it accords its own property, and will not be liable or responsible for 29 any loss or damage to any Collateral, or for any diminution in the value thereof, by reason of any act or omission of any sub-agent or bailee selected by the Administrative Agent in good faith, except to the extent that such liability arises from the Administrative Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct. SECTION 21. General Provisions Concerning the Administrative Agent. (a) The provisions of Article 8 of the Credit Agreement shall inure to the benefit of the Administrative Agent, and shall be binding upon all Lien Grantors and all Secured Parties, in connection with this Agreement and the other Security Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (i) the Administrative Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (ii) the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated by the Security Documents that the Administrative Agent is required in writing to exercise by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 9.02 of the Credit Agreement), and (iii) except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for any failure to disclose, any information relating to any DealerTrack Company that is communicated to or obtained by the bank serving as Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the existence, genuineness or value of any Collateral or for the validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of any Transaction Lien, whether impaired by operation of law or by reason of any action or omission to act on its part under the Security Documents. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Event of Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to the Administrative Agent by Holdings, the Company or a Secured Party. (b) Sub-Agents and Related Parties. The Administrative Agent may perform any of its duties and exercise any of its rights and powers through one or more sub-agents appointed by it. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any of its duties and exercise any of its rights and powers through its Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of Section 20 and this Section shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent. (c) Information as to Secured Obligations and Actions by Secured Parties. For all purposes of the Security Documents, including determining the amounts of the Secured Obligations and whether a Secured Obligation is a Contingent Secured Obligation or not, or whether any action has been taken under any Secured Agreement, the Administrative Agent will be entitled to rely on 30 information from (i) its own records for information as to the Lender Parties, their Secured Obligations and actions taken by them, (ii) any Secured Party for information as to its Secured Obligations and actions taken by it, to the extent that the Administrative Agent has not obtained such information from its own records, and (iii) Holdings or the Company, to the extent that the Administrative Agent has not obtained information from the foregoing sources. (d) Refusal to Act. The Administrative Agent may refuse to act on any notice, consent, direction or instruction from any Secured Parties or any agent, trustee or similar representative thereof that, in the Administrative Agent's opinion, (i) is contrary to law or the provisions of any Security Document, (ii) may expose the Administrative Agent to liability (unless the Administrative Agent shall have been indemnified, to its reasonable satisfaction, for such liability by the Secured Parties that gave such notice, consent, direction or instruction) or (iii) is unduly prejudicial to Secured Parties not joining in such notice, consent, direction or instruction. (e) Copies of Certain Notices. Within two Business Days after it receives or sends any notice referred to in this subsection, the Administrative Agent shall send to the Lenders and each Secured Party Requesting Notice, copies of any certificate designating additional obligations as Secured Obligations received by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 24 and any notice given by the Administrative Agent to any Lien Grantor, or received by it from any Lien Grantor, pursuant to Section 16, 17, 19 or 22. SECTION 22. Termination of Transaction Liens; Release of Collateral. (a) The Transaction Liens granted by each Guarantor shall terminate when its Secured Guarantee is released pursuant to Section 2(c). (b) The Transaction Liens granted by each Borrower shall terminate when all the Release Conditions are satisfied. (c) At any time before the Transaction Liens granted by a Borrower terminate, the Administrative Agent may, at the written request of such Borrower, (i) release any Collateral (but not all or substantially all the Collateral) with the prior written consent of the Required Lenders or (ii) release all or substantially all the Collateral with the prior written consent of all Lenders. (d) Upon any termination of a Transaction Lien or release of Collateral, the Administrative Agent will, at the expense of the relevant Lien Grantor, execute and deliver to such Lien Grantor such documents as such Lien Grantor shall reasonably request to evidence the termination of such Transaction Lien or the release of such Collateral, as the case may be. 31 SECTION 23. Additional Guarantors and Lien Grantors. Any Subsidiary may become a party hereto by signing and delivering to the Administrative Agent a Security Agreement Supplement, whereupon such Subsidiary shall become a "Guarantor" and a "Lien Grantor" as defined herein. SECTION 24. Additional Secured Obligations. Any Borrower may from time to time designate its obligations under any Hedging Agreement or Cash Management Agreement in effect at such time with any Person which at such time is a Lender or an Affiliate of an Lender as additional Secured Obligations for purposes hereof by delivering to the Administrative Agent a certificate signed by an Authorized Officer that (i) identifies such Hedging Agreement or Cash Management Agreement and specifies (x) the name and address of each other party thereto and (y) in the case of a Hedging Agreement, the notional principal amount thereof and the expiration date thereof, or, in the case of a Cash Management Agreement, the services provided thereunder and the term thereof, and (ii) states that such Borrower's obligations thereunder are designated as Secured Obligations for purposes hereof. SECTION 25. Right Of Set-off. Each Secured Party and each of their respective Affiliates is authorized at any time when (i) an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or (ii) any Secured Obligation shall not have been paid when due, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by such Secured Party or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Lien Grantor (other than any such obligations arising under or in respect of any agreement or other arrangement into in the ordinary course of business of the Lien Grantors pursuant to which such Secured Party or Affiliate is a customer of a Lien Grantor, as to which any rights of setoff shall be determined without reference to the provisions of this Section) against any Secured Obligations of any Lien Grantor, now or hereafter existing and held by such Secured Party or Affiliate, irrespective of whether or not such Secured Party or Affiliate shall have made any demand therefor and although such obligations may be unmatured.

EX-10.15 10 y10748exv10w15.txt EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT EXHIBIT 10.15 SENIOR EXECUTIVE EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT This Senior Executive Employment Agreement (the "Agreement") is entered into as of this 26th day of May, 2005 (the "Effective Date") by and between Mark F. O'Neil ("Executive") and DealerTrack Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Employer") with principal offices at 1111 Marcus Avenue, Suite M04, Lake Success, NY 11042. Section 1. Term Employer shall continue to employ Executive and Executive agrees to continue such employment, upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, from the Effective Date through and including June 30, 2007 (the "Initial Term"). This Agreement shall renew automatically for successive one year periods (each, a "Renewal Term") unless one party gives notice to the other party, in writing, at least sixty (60) days prior to the expiration of this Agreement (or any renewal) of its desire to terminate the Agreement. The term of this Agreement, including the Initial Term and any Renewal Term, shall be referred to herein as the "Term". Section 2. Executive's Duties (a) Executive shall be Chairman and Chief Executive Officer and shall report directly to the Board of Directors of Employer (the "Board"). Executive shall faithfully and diligently perform his duties at the direction of the Board, or a committee of the Board, to the best of Executive's ability. Executive shall (i) devote his best efforts, skill, and ability and full business time and attention to the performance of the services customarily incident to such office, subject to vacations and sick leave as provided herein and in accordance with Employer policy, (ii) carry out his duties in a competent and professional manner; and (iii) generally promote the interests of Employer. Subject to applicable law, Executive shall not knowingly participate in any activity that is detrimental to the interests of Employer or any of its affiliates, including, without limitation, any public criticism or disparagement of any type by Executive, through the media or otherwise, of Employer or any of its affiliates or employees, except in connection with the exercise of Executive's rights against Employer or any of its affiliates. (b) Executive agrees to abide by all policies applicable to senior executive officers of Employer promulgated from time to time by Employer, which policies are enforced uniformly and applicable to all similar executives of Employer. (c) Except for such business travel as may be incident to his duties hereunder, Executive shall perform his duties at Employer's offices at the address set forth in the preamble to this Agreement or at such other location as may be approved by Employer. Section 3. Compensation for Executive's Services In consideration of the duties and services to be performed by Executive pursuant to Sections 1 and 2 hereof, Executive shall receive: (a) Salary. Executive shall earn salary (the "Salary") at the annual rate of Four Hundred Seventy-Six Thousand Dollars ($476,000.00) (the "Minimum Salary"), less all 1 applicable federal, state, and local tax withholdings. Such Salary shall be earned and shall be payable in periodic installments in accordance with Employer's payroll practices. During the Term, the Board or the Compensation Committee of the Board (the "Compensation Committee") will review the Salary annually and may in its discretion increase the Salary, but may not reduce it during the Term unless Employer institutes salary reductions across the board; provided, however, that in no event shall the Salary be reduced below the Minimum Salary without Executive's written consent. (b) Bonus. For each fiscal year of Employer (each, a "Fiscal Year"), Executive shall be entitled to receive a cash performance bonus (a "Bonus") which shall be based on the achievement of certain performance benchmarks by Employer during such Fiscal Year which shall be determined by the Board. The Board shall review the target Bonus on an annual basis and, in its sole discretion, may increase such target Bonus for any Fiscal Year. The target Bonus shall not be decreased except in connection with company-wide bonus reductions. The target Bonus for any Fiscal Year shall be at least Seventy percent (70%) percent of the Salary for such Fiscal Year. The Bonus for each Fiscal Year shall be paid, if at all, to Executive on a schedule consistent with Employer's bonus payments to its other similarly situated senior executive officers by no later than two and one half (2-1/2) months following the end of such Fiscal Year. Executive understands and agrees that the Bonus is established in part as an inducement for Executive to remain employed by Employer and except as provided in Section 5(c) of this Agreement, or in the Employer's sole discretion, in the event that Executive's employment is terminated prior to the end of any Fiscal Year during the Term, then Executive shall not receive payment of any Bonus for such year. (c) Equity. In connection with Executive's employment, Executive has been and may continue to be granted stock options ("Stock Options") to purchase equity securities of Employer pursuant to the terms of DealerTrack Holdings, Inc. 2001 Stock Option Plan, effective as of August 10, 2001, as amended ("Stock Option Plan") or may be granted Stock Options or other equity based awards pursuant to the terms of the DealerTrack Holdings, Inc. 2005 Incentive Award Plan, effective as of May 26, 2005, as amended (the "2005 Incentive Award Plan"), or any other successor equity incentive plans (collectively, the "Stock Incentive Plans"). Except as otherwise provided herein, the terms of the Stock Options shall be governed by the Stock Incentive Plans. Executive shall be credited with twenty-four (24) months accelerated vesting of his Stock Options upon termination of Executive's employment by: (1) Employer without Cause (as defined below); or (2) Executive for Good Reason (as defined below). Executive shall be credited with thirty-six (36) months accelerated vesting of his Stock Options upon a Change of Control (defined below). Executive shall be credited with full acceleration and vesting of his Stock Options upon the earlier of: (1) the elimination of Executive's position or a termination of Executive's employment, in either event, within twelve (12) months after a Change of Control; (2) a material negative change in Executive's compensation or responsibilities within twelve (12) months after a Change of Control; or (3) the requirement that Executive be based at a location which is more than fifty (50) miles from Employer's offices at the address set forth in the preamble to this Agreement within twelve (12) months after a Change of Control. Anything in the Stock Incentive Plans to the contrary notwithstanding, if Executive's employment is terminated by Executive with Good Reason or by Employer without Cause, or under circumstances described above which would result in certain accelerated vesting of any unvested Stock Options held by Executive, the unexercised portion of any Stock Options held by 2 Executive will not terminate until the twelve (12) month anniversary of the date of termination of Executive's employment. In the event Employer elects to grant equity based awards other than Options, such grants shall, where appropriate, be subject to equivalent acceleration provisions as set forth in this Section 3(c). For purposes hereof, a "Change of Control" shall mean and includes each of the following: (i) A transaction or series of transactions (other than an offering of shares of Employer to the general public through a registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission) whereby any "person" or related "group" of "persons" (as such terms are used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d)(2) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) (other than the Employer, any of its subsidiaries, an employee benefit plan maintained by the Employer or any of its subsidiaries or a "person" that, prior to such transaction, directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with, the Employer) directly or indirectly acquires beneficial ownership (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) of securities of the Employer possessing more than 50% of the total combined voting power of the Employer's securities outstanding immediately after such acquisition; or (ii) During any period of two consecutive years, individuals who, at the beginning of such period, constitute the Board together with any new director(s) (other than a director designated by a person who shall have entered into an agreement with the Company to effect a transaction described in Section 3(c)(i) or Section 3(c)(iii)) whose election by the Board or nomination for election by the Employer's stockholders was approved by a vote of at least two-thirds of the directors then still in office who either were directors at the beginning of the two-year period or whose election or nomination for election was previously so approved, cease for any reason to constitute a majority thereof; or (iii) The consummation by the Employer (whether directly involving the Employer or indirectly involving the Employer through one or more intermediaries) of (x) a merger, consolidation, reorganization, or business combination or (y) a sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Employer's assets in any single transaction or series of related transactions or (z) the acquisition of assets or stock of another entity, in each case other than a transaction: (A) Which results in the Employer's voting securities outstanding immediately before the transaction continuing to represent (either by remaining outstanding or by being converted into voting securities of the Employer or the person that, as a result of the transaction, controls, directly or indirectly, the Employer or owns, directly or indirectly, all or substantially all of the Employer's assets or otherwise succeeds to the business of the Employer (the Employer or such person, the "Successor Entity")) directly or indirectly, at least a majority of the combined voting power of the Successor Entity's outstanding voting securities immediately after the transaction, and (B) After which no person or group beneficially owns voting securities representing 50% or more of the combined voting power of the Successor Entity; 3 provided, however, that no person or group shall be treated for purposes of this Section 3(c)(iii) as beneficially owning 50% or more of combined voting power of the Successor Entity solely as a result of the voting power held in the Employer prior to the consummation of the transaction; or (iv) The Employer's stockholders approve a liquidation or dissolution of the Employer. The Board or its designee shall have full and final authority, which shall be exercised in its discretion, to determine conclusively whether a Change of Control of the Employer has occurred, and the date of the occurrence of such Change of Control and any incidental matters relating thereto. (d) Benefits. Employer shall provide Executive with the right to participate in and receive benefits from all life, accident, disability, medical and pension plans, and all similar benefits as are from time to time in effect and are generally made available to similar situated senior executive officers of Employer. The amount and extent of benefits to which Executive is entitled shall be governed by the specific benefit plan, as it may be amended from time to time. (e) Expenses. Employer shall promptly reimburse Executive for reasonable expenses for cellular telephone usage, entertainment, travel, meals, lodging and similar items incurred in the conduct of Employer's business. Such expenses shall be reimbursed in accordance with Employer's expense reimbursement policies and guidelines. (f) Vacation; Sick Leave. During the Term, Executive shall be entitled to four weeks (4) weeks vacation per year, paid holidays, sick leave, and similar benefits, to be earned and used in accordance with Employer's policy and procedure for other similarly situated senior executive officers. (g) Modification. Employer reserves the right to modify, suspend or discontinue any and all of the above plans, practices, policies and programs referenced in Sections 3(d) and (e) at any time in its discretion without recourse by Executive so long as such action is taken generally with respect to other similarly situated senior executive officers. Any such modification, suspension or discontinuance of the plans, practices and policies referenced in Section 3(e) will not apply to otherwise reimbursable expenses incurred by Executive prior to any such modification, suspension or discontinuance. Section 4. Termination of Employment (a) Resignation. Executive may voluntarily terminate his employment with Employer, at any time, with or without Good Reason, upon written notice to Employer. (b) Termination. Employer may terminate Executive's employment at any time, with or without Cause, upon written notice to Executive. (c) Death or Disability. Executive's employment shall terminate immediately upon Executive's death. In the event Employer, in good faith, determines that Executive is unable to perform the functions of his position due to a Disability (as defined below), it may 4 notify Executive in writing of its intention to terminate Executive's employment and Executive's employment with Employer shall terminate effective on the thirtieth (30th) day after receipt of such notice by Executive. For the purposes of this Agreement, "Disability" shall mean a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits a major life activity of Executive and renders Executive unable to perform the essential functions of his position even with reasonable accommodation (that does not impose an undue hardship on Employer), and which has lasted at least (i) sixty (60) consecutive days, (ii) the balance of Executive's entitlement to leave, if any, under the Family and Medical Leave Act, or other similar statute or (iii) the balance of any election period under the Employer's long term disability program (without regard to whether Executive is awarded benefits under such program), whichever is longer. (d) Cause. Employer may immediately terminate Executive's employment for "Cause" by giving written notice to Executive. For purposes of this Agreement, "Cause" shall mean: (1) Executive's commission of an act of fraud or embezzlement upon Employer or any of its affiliates; or (2) Executive's commission of any willful act intended to injure the reputation, business, or any business relationship of Employer or any of its affiliates; or (3) Executive is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to have committed a felony; or (4) the refusal or failure of Executive to perform Executive's duties with Employer in a competent and professional manner that is not cured by Executive within ten (10) business days after a written demand therefor is delivered to Executive by the Board which specifically identifies the manner in which the Board believes that Executive has not substantially performed Executive's duties; provided, further, however, that if the Board, in good faith, determines that the refusal or failure by Executive is egregious in nature or is not susceptible of cure, then no cure period shall be required hereunder; or (5) the refusal or failure of Executive to comply with any of his material obligations under this Agreement (including any exhibit hereto) that is not cured by Executive within ten (10) business days after a written demand therefor is delivered to Executive by the Board which specifically identifies the manner in which the Board believes Executive has materially breached this Agreement; provided, further, however, that if the Board, in good faith, determines that the refusal or failure by Executive is egregious in nature or is not susceptible of cure, then no cure period shall be required hereunder. 5 (e) Good Reason. Executive may terminate his employment for "Good Reason," by delivering written notice of such termination ("Employer Default Notice") to Employer within sixty (60) days of the occurrence of any of the following events, each of which shall constitute Good Reason: (i) Employer's material breach of any provision of this Agreement, the Stock Incentive Plans or any agreements thereunder, which has not been cured within the allotted time; (ii) a material reduction of Executive's then current title, status, authority, responsibility or duties or the assignment to Executive of any duties materially inconsistent with Executive's then current position; (iii) any material reduction in Executive's salary or benefits; (iv) the failure of any successor entity to assume the terms of this Agreement upon any Change of Control; (v) the relocation of Executive to a facility or location more than fifty (50) miles from Employer's principal offices at the address set forth in the preamble to this Agreement; or (vi) the failure of Employer to renew this Agreement upon the expiration of the Initial Term or any Renewal Term. The Employer Default Notice shall specify the reason for Executive's belief that an event constituting Good Reason has occurred. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any material breach of this Agreement by Employer, or other event constituting Good Reason, shall not constitute Good Reason if any such breach or other event is cured or corrected by Employer within thirty (30) days following delivery to Employer of the Employer Default Notice. (f) Continuing Obligations. Executive acknowledges and agrees that any termination under this Section 4 is not intended, and shall not be deemed or construed, to affect in any way any of Executive's covenants and obligations contained in Sections 6, 7, and 8 hereof, which shall continue in full force and effect beyond such termination for any reason. Section 5. Termination Obligations (a) Resignation. If Executive's employment is terminated voluntarily by Executive without Good Reason, Executive's employment shall terminate without further obligations to Executive other than for payment of the sum of any unpaid Salary determined by the Board and reimbursable expenses and vacation accrued and owing to Executive prior to the termination. The sum of such amounts shall hereinafter be referred to as the "Accrued Obligations," which shall be paid to Executive or Executive's estate or beneficiary within thirty (30) days of the date of termination. If Executive voluntarily terminates his employment without Good Reason and within (30) days of such termination, Employer determines that it would have had Cause to terminate Executive pursuant to Section 4(d), Executive shall be deemed to have been terminated for Cause and the terms of Section 5(b) shall apply. (b) Cause. If Executive's employment is terminated by Employer for Cause, this Agreement shall terminate without further obligations to Executive other than for the timely payment of Accrued Obligations. If it is subsequently determined by an arbitrator, pursuant to Section 19 hereof, that Employer did not have Cause for termination, then Employer's decision to terminate shall be deemed to have been made without Cause and the terms of Section 5(c) shall apply. (c) By Employer Other than for Cause or Death or Disability; By Executive for Good Reason. 6 (1) If (A) Employer terminates Executive's employment for a reason other than Cause, or due to Executive's death or Disability, or (B) Executive terminates his employment for Good Reason, Employer shall have no further obligations to Executive other than for (i) the payment of Accrued Obligations, (ii) severance pay in an amount equal to twenty-four (24) months of Salary to be paid in equal installments in accordance with Employer's payroll practices during the period beginning on the Severance Commencement Date (as defined below) and ending on the 24-month anniversary of the date of the Executive's termination of employment (the "Date of Termination"); provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Severance Commencement Date is the six-month anniversary of the Date of Termination, then Employer shall, as of the six-month anniversary of the Date of Termination, pay to the Executive a lump-sum amount equal to 25% of the Severance Amount (with the other 75% of the Severance Amount payable to the Executive in equal monthly installments during the period beginning on the six-month anniversary of the Date of Termination and ending on the 24-month anniversary thereof), and (iii) a pro rata bonus calculated based on multiplying the percentage of the year Executive worked for Employer during the year of his termination by the Bonus received by Executive during the preceding year and (iv) the reimbursement of premiums otherwise payable by Executive pursuant to COBRA for a period of up to 12 months, or until Executive no longer is eligible for COBRA continuation coverage, whichever is earlier. For purposes of this Section 5, "Severance Commencement Date" shall mean (x) if any stock of Employer or its affiliates is publicly traded on an established securities market or otherwise and the Board (or its delegate) determines in its discretion that as of the Date of Termination the Executive is a "key employee" (within the meaning of Section 416(i) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code")), as interpreted in accordance with Section 409A of the Code and Department of Treasury regulations and other interpretive guidance issued thereunder) and that Section 409A of the Code applies with respect to a payment to the Executive pursuant to Section 5(c)(1)(ii), the six-month anniversary of the Date of Termination; or (y) if the Board (or its delegate) determines in its discretion that the Executive is not such a "key employee" as of the Date of Termination (or that Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code does not apply with respect to a payment to the Executive pursuant to Section 5(c)(1)(ii)), the Date of Termination. The payments described in this Section 5(c)(1), except for those set forth in Section 5(c)(1)(ii) and (iv), shall be made within thirty (30) days of the Date of Termination. (2) If Executive terminates his employment for Good Reason and it is subsequently determined by an arbitrator, pursuant to Section 20 hereof, that Executive did not have Good Reason for termination, then Executive's decision to terminate for Good Reason shall be deemed to have been a voluntary resignation, the terms of Section 5(a) shall apply, and all monies paid to Executive pursuant to this Section 5(c)(1), except for those monies paid pursuant to Section 5(c)(1)(i), shall be immediately returned to Employer. (3) The amounts payable pursuant to Section 5(c)(1) shall be the only amounts Executive shall receive for termination in accordance with this Section 5(c); provided, however, that no amounts shall be payable pursuant to this section 5(c) on or following the date Executive breaches any of Sections 7, 8 or 9 of this Agreement. (d) Mitigation. In the event Executive's employment with Employer is terminated pursuant to this Section 5, Executive shall be obligated to mitigate any severance payments due to Executive in accordance with Section 5(c)(1)(ii). Executive shall be required to 7 notify Employer, in writing, within seven (7) days of obtaining subsequent employment by an unrelated party, which shall include, without limitation, self-employment, consulting or other arrangement, but not passive investment activities. In the event Executive obtains other employment during any severance payout period described in Section 5(c)(1)(ii), the severance payments due to Executive thereunder shall be reduced to an amount equal to the lesser of (i) fifty (50%) percent of Executive's Salary immediately prior to the Date of Termination or (ii) fifty (50%) percent of Executive's base compensation received for subsequent employment, self-employment, consulting or other arrangement, commencing on the date Executive commences providing services in his new capacity. Nothing herein shall require Executive to seek employment, self-employment, consulting or other arrangement. (e) Release. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no severance payments required hereunder shall be made by Employer until such time as Executive shall execute a general release for the benefit of Employer and its affiliates in a form satisfactory to Employer. Such general release shall not apply to (i) Executive's rights under any Stock Incentive Plan award agreements or (ii) Executive's rights, as applicable, to indemnification under Employer's charter or bylaws, any indemnification agreement or applicable law. (f) Equity Compensation Awards. Except as expressly provided herein, except for the provisions of Section 3(c) of this Agreement, the terms of the Stock Incentive Plans and any related award agreements and/or notice of grant shall govern the termination, vesting, and/or exercise of Executive's stock options or other equity awards upon the termination of Executive's employment for any reason. (g) Exclusive Remedy. Executive agrees that the payments set forth in this Agreement shall constitute the exclusive and sole remedy for any termination of Executive's employment and Executive covenants not to assert or pursue any other remedies, at law or in equity, with respect to this Agreement. (h) Termination of Executive's Office. Following the termination of Executive's employment for any reason, Executive shall hold no further office or position with Employer or any of its affiliates. Section 6. Parachute Payments. (a) If it is determined by a nationally recognized United States public accounting firm selected by the Employer and approved in writing by the Executive (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld) (the "Auditors") that any payment or benefit made or provided to the Executive in connection with this Agreement or otherwise (including without limitation any Stock Option or other equity based award vesting) (collectively, a "Payment"), would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (the "Parachute Tax"), then the Employer shall pay to the Executive, prior to the time the Parachute Tax is payable with respect to such Payment, an additional payment (a "Gross-Up Payment") in an amount such that, after payment by the Executive of all taxes (including any Parachute Tax) imposed upon the Gross-Up Payment, the Executive retains an amount of the Gross-Up Payment equal to the Parachute Tax imposed upon the Payment. The amount of any Gross-Up Payment shall be determined by the Auditors, subject to adjustment, as necessary, as a result of any Internal 8 Revenue Service position. For purposes of making the calculations required by this Agreement, the Auditors may make reasonable assumptions and approximations concerning applicable taxes and may rely on reasonable, good faith interpretations concerning the application of Sections 280G and 4999 of the Code, provided that the Auditors' determinations must be made with substantial authority (within the meaning of Section 6662 of the Code). (b) The federal tax returns filed by the Executive (and any filing made by a consolidated tax group which includes the Employer) shall be prepared and filed on a basis consistent with the determination of the Auditors with respect to the Parachute Tax payable by the Executive. The Executive shall make proper payment of the amount of any Parachute Tax, and at the request of the Employer, provide to the Employer true and correct copies (with any amendments) of his federal income tax return as filed with the Internal Revenue Service, and such other documents reasonably requested by the Employer, evidencing such payment. If, after the Employer's payment to the Executive of the Gross-Up Payment, the Auditors determine in good faith that the amount of the Gross-Up Payment should be reduced or increased, or such determination is made by the Internal Revenue Service, then within ten (10) business days of such determination, the Executive shall pay to the Employer the amount of any such reduction, or the Employer shall pay to the Executive the amount of any such increase; provided, however, that in no event shall the Executive have any such refund obligation if it is determined by the Employer that to do so would be a violation of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as it may be amended from time to time; and provided, further, that if the Executive has prior thereto paid such amounts to the Internal Revenue Service, such refund shall be due only to the extent that a refund of such amount is received by the Executive; and provided, further, that (i) the fees and expenses of the Auditors (and any other legal and accounting fees) incurred for services rendered in connection with the Auditor's determination of the Parachute Tax or any challenge by the Internal Revenue Service or other taxing authority relating to such determination shall be paid by the Employer and (ii) the Employer shall indemnify and hold the Executive harmless on an after-tax basis for any interest and penalties imposed upon the Executive to the extent that such interest and penalties are related to the Auditor's determination of the Parachute Tax or the Gross-Up Payment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Executive's rights under this Section 6 shall survive the termination of his employment for any reason and the termination or expiration of this Agreement for any reason. Section 7. Restrictions Respecting Confidential Information Executive hereby covenants and agrees that, during his employment and thereafter, Executive will not, under any circumstance, disclose in any way any Confidential Information (as defined below) to any other person other than (i) at the direction of and for the benefit of Employer, (ii) to his attorney or other advisers in connection with Executive's enforcement of his rights hereunder, provided such individuals or entities agree to be bound by the confidentiality restrictions herein contained, and if such Confidential Information is relevant to such enforcement action, to the court or arbitrator, as applicable, subject to a protective order. For the purposes of the foregoing, "Confidential Information" means any information pertaining to the assets, business, creditors, vendors, manufacturers, customers, data, employees, financial condition or affairs, formulae, licenses, methods, operations, procedures, reports, suppliers, systems and technologies of Employer and its affiliates, including (without limitation) the contracts, patents, trade secrets and customer lists developed or otherwise acquired by Employer 9 and its affiliates; provided, however, that Confidential Information shall exclude any information that was, is, or becomes publicly available other than through disclosure by Executive or any other person known to Executive to be subject to confidentiality obligations to Employer. All Confidential Information is and will remain the sole and exclusive property of Employer and its affiliates. Following the termination of his employment, Executive shall return all documents and other tangible items containing Confidential Information to Employer, without retaining any copies, notes or excerpts thereof. Section 8. Proprietary Matters Executive expressly understands and agrees that any and all improvements, inventions, discoveries, processes, or know-how that are generated or conceived by Executive during the Term (collectively, the "Inventions") will be the sole and exclusive property of Employer, and Executive will, whenever requested to do so by Employer (either during the Term or thereafter), execute and assign any and all applications, assignments and/or other instruments and do all things which Employer may deem necessary or appropriate in order to apply for, obtain, maintain, enforce and defend patents, copyrights, trade names or trademarks of the United States or of foreign countries for said Inventions, or in order to assign and convey or otherwise make available to Employer the sole and exclusive right, title, and interest in and to said Inventions, applications, patents, copyrights, trade names or trademarks; provided, however, that the provisions of this Section 8 shall not apply to an Invention that Executive developed entirely on his own time without using Employer's Confidential Information except for those Inventions that either (i) directly and materially relate, at the time of conception or reduction to practice of the invention, to Employer's business, or actual or demonstrably anticipated research or development of Employer, or (ii) directly and materially result from any work performed by Executive for Employer. Executive shall promptly communicate and disclose to Employer all Inventions conceived, developed or made by him during his employment by Employer, whether solely or jointly with others, and whether or not patentable or copyrightable, (a) which relate to any matters or business of the type carried on or being developed by Employer, or (b) which result from or are suggested by any work done by him in the course of his employment by Employer. Executive shall also promptly communicate and disclose to Employer all material other data obtained by him concerning the business or affairs of Employer in the course of his employment by Employer. Section 9. Nonsolicitation/Non-Compete (a) Executive agrees that throughout his employment and for a period of two (2) years following the termination of his employment for any reason, he will not directly or indirectly, own, manage, operate, control, or participate in the ownership, management, operation, or control of, or be connected with, or have any financial interest in, any Competitor. Ownership, for personal investment purposes only, of not to exceed (i) individually, two (2%) percent of the outstanding capital stock of any privately held entity, or (ii) voting stock of any publicly held corporation shall not constitute a violation hereof. For purposes of this Agreement, the term "Competitor" shall mean any individual or entity, present or future, then providing any of the following products or services: (1) a multi-finance source automotive finance portal, (2) electronic contracting for automotive finance or lease transactions, other than at a financing source entity that purchases electronic contracts or leases from automotive dealers, (3) 10 automotive lease, retail and/or balloon payment comparison or desking tools or (4) any other sales or finance and insurance-related products or services for automotive dealerships similar to any products or services offered by Employer or any of its affiliates.

(c) Executive agrees that during his employment with Employer and for a period of two (2) years following the termination of his employment for any reason, he will not influence or attempt to influence customers of Employer or any of its present or future affiliates, either directly or indirectly, to divert their business to any Competitor. (d) The restrictions contained in this Section 9 are necessary for the protection of the business and goodwill of Employer and are considered by Executive to be reasonable for such purpose. Further, Executive represents that these restrictions will not prevent him from earning a livelihood during the restricted period. (e) This Section 9 shall survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement. Section 10. Equitable Relief Executive acknowledges and agrees that Employer will suffer irreparable damage which cannot be adequately compensated by money damages in the event of a breach, or threatened breach, of any of the terms and provisions of Sections 7, 8 and 9 of this Agreement, and that, in the event of any such breach, or threatened breach, Employer will not have an adequate remedy at law. It is therefore agreed that Employer, in addition to all other such rights, powers, privileges and remedies that it may have, shall be entitled to injunctive relief, specific performance or such other equitable relief as Employer may request to enforce any of those terms and provisions and to enjoin or otherwise restrain any act prohibited thereby, and Executive will not raise and hereby waives any objection or defense that there is an adequate remedy available at law. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 20 of this Agreement, Executive agrees that Employer shall be entitled to seek such injunctive relief, without bond, in a court of competent jurisdiction and Executive hereby consents to the jurisdiction of the state and federal courts of New York for purposes of such an action. Executive agrees that any claim he may have against Employer or any of its affiliates shall not constitute a defense against the issuance of any such equitable relief. The foregoing shall not constitute a waiver of any of Employer's rights, powers, privileges and remedies against or in respect of a breaching party or any other person or thing under this Agreement, or applicable law.

This Agreement shall renew automatically for successive one year periods (each, a "Renewal Term") unless one party gives notice to the other party, in writing, at least sixty (60) days prior to the expiration of this Agreement (or any renewal) of its desire to terminate the Agreement. The term of this Agreement, including the Initial Term and any Renewal Term, shall be referred to herein as the "Term". Section 2. Executive's Duties (a) Executive shall be Senior Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer and shall report directly to Employer's Chief Executive Officer or his designee. Executive shall faithfully and diligently perform his duties at the direction of Employer's Chief Executive Officer, or his designee, to the best of Executive's ability. Executive shall (i) devote his best efforts, skill, and ability and full business time and attention to the performance of the services customarily incident to such office, subject to vacations and sick leave as provided herein and in accordance with Employer policy, (ii) carry out his duties in a competent and professional manner; and (iii) generally promote the interests of Employer. Subject to applicable law, Executive shall not knowingly participate in any activity that is detrimental to the interests of Employer or any of its affiliates, including, without limitation, any public criticism or disparagement of any type by Executive, through the media or otherwise, of Employer or any of its affiliates or employees, except in connection with the exercise of Executive's rights against Employer or any of its affiliates. (b) Executive agrees to abide by all policies applicable to senior executive officers of Employer promulgated from time to time by Employer which policies are enforced uniformly and applicable to all similar executives of Employer. (c) Except for such business travel as may be incident to his duties hereunder, Executive shall perform his duties at Employer's offices at the address set forth in the preamble to this Agreement or at such other location as may be approved by Employer. Section 3. Compensation for Executive's Services In consideration of the duties and services to be performed by Executive pursuant to Sections 1 and 2 hereof, Executive shall receive: 1 (a) Salary. Executive shall earn salary (the "Salary") at the annual rate of Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000.00) (the "Minimum Salary"), less all applicable federal, state, and local tax withholdings. Such Salary shall be earned and shall be payable in periodic installments in accordance with Employer's payroll practices. During the Term, the Board of Directors of Employer (the "Parent Board") or the Compensation Committee of the Parent Board (the "Compensation Committee") will review the Salary annually and may in its discretion increase the Salary, but may not reduce it during the Term unless Employer institutes salary reductions across the board; provided, however, that in no event shall the Salary be reduced below the Minimum Salary without Executive's written consent. (b) Bonus. For each fiscal year of Employer (each, a "Fiscal Year"), Executive shall be entitled to receive a cash performance bonus (a "Bonus") which shall be based on the achievement of certain performance benchmarks by Employer during such Fiscal Year which shall be determined by the Parent Board. The Parent Board shall review the target Bonus on an annual basis and, in its sole discretion, may increase such target Bonus for any Fiscal Year. The target Bonus shall not be decreased except in connection with company-wide bonus reductions. The target Bonus for any Fiscal Year shall be at least Forty-Five percent (45%) of the Salary for such Fiscal Year. The Bonus for each Fiscal Year shall be paid, if at all, to Executive on a schedule consistent with Employer's bonus payments to its other similarly situated senior executive officers by no later than two and one half (2-1/2) months following the end of such Fiscal Year. Executive understands and agrees that the Bonus is established in part as an inducement for Executive to remain employed by Employer and except as provided in Section 5(c) of this Agreement, or in the Employer's sole discretion, in the event that Executive's employment is terminated prior to the end of any Fiscal Year during the Term, then Executive shall not receive payment of any Bonus for such year. (c) Equity. In connection with Executive's employment, Executive has been and may continue to be granted stock options ("Stock Options") to purchase equity securities of Employer pursuant to the terms of DealerTrack Holdings, Inc. 2001 Stock Option Plan, effective as of August 10, 2001, as amended ("Stock Option Plan") or may be granted Stock Options or other equity based awards pursuant to the terms of the DealerTrack Holdings, Inc. 2005 Incentive Award Plan, effective as of May 26, 2005, as amended (the "2005 Incentive Award Plan"), or any other successor equity incentive plans (collectively, the "Stock Incentive Plans"). Except as otherwise provided herein, the terms of the Stock Options shall be governed by the Stock Incentive Plans. Executive shall be credited with twenty-four (24) months accelerated vesting of his Stock Options upon termination of Executive's employment by: (1) Employer without Cause (as defined below); or (2) Executive for Good Reason (as defined below). Executive shall be credited with thirty-six (36) months accelerated vesting of his Stock Options upon a Change of Control (defined below). Executive shall be credited with full acceleration and vesting of his Stock Options upon the earlier of: (1) the elimination of Executive's position or a termination of Executive's employment, in either event, within twelve (12) months after a Change of Control; (2) a material negative change in Executive's compensation or responsibilities within twelve (12) months after a Change of Control; or (3) the requirement that Executive be based at a location which is more than fifty (50) miles from Employer's offices at the address set forth in the preamble to this Agreement within twelve (12) months after a Change of Control. Anything in the Stock Incentive Plans to the contrary notwithstanding, if Executive's employment is terminated by Executive with Good Reason or by Employer without Cause, or 2 under circumstances described above which would result in certain accelerated vesting of any unvested Stock Options held by Executive, the unexercised portion of any Stock Options held by Executive will not terminate until the twelve (12) month anniversary of the date of termination of Executive's employment. In the event Employer elects to grant equity based awards other than Options, such grants shall, where appropriate, be subject to equivalent acceleration provisions as set forth in this Section 3(c). For purposes hereof, a "Change of Control" shall mean and includes each of the following: (i) A transaction or series of transactions (other than an offering of shares of Employer to the general public through a registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission) whereby any "person" or related "group" of "persons" (as such terms are used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d)(2) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) (other than the Employer, any of its subsidiaries, an employee benefit plan maintained by the Employer or any of its subsidiaries or a "person" that, prior to such transaction, directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with, the Employer) directly or indirectly acquires beneficial ownership (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) of securities of the Employer possessing more than 50% of the total combined voting power of the Employer's securities outstanding immediately after such acquisition; or (ii) During any period of two consecutive years, individuals who, at the beginning of such period, constitute the Parent Board together with any new director(s) (other than a director designated by a person who shall have entered into an agreement with the Company to effect a transaction described in Section 3(c)(i) or Section 3(c)(iii)) whose election by the Parent Board or nomination for election by the Employer's stockholders was approved by a vote of at least two-thirds of the directors then still in office who either were directors at the beginning of the two-year period or whose election or nomination for election was previously so approved, cease for any reason to constitute a majority thereof; or (iii) The consummation by the Employer (whether directly involving the Employer or indirectly involving the Employer through one or more intermediaries) of (x) a merger, consolidation, reorganization, or business combination or (y) a sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Employer's assets in any single transaction or series of related transactions or (z) the acquisition of assets or stock of another entity, in each case other than a transaction: (A) Which results in the Employer's voting securities outstanding immediately before the transaction continuing to represent (either by remaining outstanding or by being converted into voting securities of the Employer or the person that, as a result of the transaction, controls, directly or indirectly, the Employer or owns, directly or indirectly, all or substantially all of the Employer's assets or otherwise succeeds to the business of the Employer (the Employer or such person, the "Successor Entity")) directly or indirectly, at least a majority of the combined voting power of the Successor Entity's outstanding voting securities immediately after the transaction, and 3 (B) After which no person or group beneficially owns voting securities representing 50% or more of the combined voting power of the Successor Entity; provided, however, that no person or group shall be treated for purposes of this Section 3(c)(iii) as beneficially owning 50% or more of combined voting power of the Successor Entity solely as a result of the voting power held in the Employer prior to the consummation of the transaction; or (iv) The Employer's stockholders approve a liquidation or dissolution of the Employer. The Parent Board or its designee shall have full and final authority, which shall be exercised in its discretion, to determine conclusively whether a Change of Control of the Employer has occurred, and the date of the occurrence of such Change of Control and any incidental matters relating thereto. (d) Benefits. Employer shall provide Executive with the right to participate in and receive benefits from all life, accident, disability, medical and pension plans, and all similar benefits as are from time to time in effect and are generally made available to similar situated senior executive officers of Employer. The amount and extent of benefits to which Executive is entitled shall be governed by the specific benefit plan, as it may be amended from time to time. (e) Expenses. Employer shall promptly reimburse Executive for reasonable expenses for cellular telephone usage, entertainment, travel, meals, lodging and similar items incurred in the conduct of Employer's business. Such expenses shall be reimbursed in accordance with Employer's expense reimbursement policies and guidelines. (f) Vacation; Sick Leave. During the Term, Executive shall be entitled to four weeks (4) weeks vacation per year, paid holidays, sick leave, and similar benefits, to be earned and used in accordance with Employer's policy and procedure for other similarly situated senior executive officers.

Employer reserves the right to modify, suspend or discontinue any and all of the above plans, practices, policies and programs referenced in Sections 3(d) and (e) at any time in its discretion without recourse by Executive so long as such action is taken generally with respect to other similarly situated senior executive officers. Any such modification, suspension or discontinuance of the plans, practices and policies referenced in Section 3(e) will not apply to otherwise reimbursable expenses incurred by Executive prior to any such modification, suspension or discontinuance. Section 4. Termination of Employment (a) Resignation. Executive may voluntarily terminate his employment with Employer, at any time, with or without Good Reason, upon written notice to Employer. (b) Termination. Employer may terminate Executive's employment at any time, with or without Cause, upon written notice to Executive. 4 (c) Death or Disability. Executive's employment shall terminate immediately upon Executive's death. In the event Employer, in good faith, determines that Executive is unable to perform the functions of his position due to a Disability (as defined below), it may notify Executive in writing of its intention to terminate Executive's employment and Executive's employment with Employer shall terminate effective on the thirtieth (30th) day after receipt of such notice by Executive. For the purposes of this Agreement, "Disability" shall mean a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits a major life activity of Executive and renders Executive unable to perform the essential functions of his position even with reasonable accommodation (that does not impose an undue hardship on Employer), and which has lasted at least (i) sixty (60) consecutive days, (ii) the balance of Executive's entitlement to leave, if any, under the Family and Medical Leave Act, or other similar statute or (iii) the balance of any election period under the Employer's long term disability program (without regard to whether Executive is awarded benefits under such program), whichever is longer. (d) Cause. Employer may immediately terminate Executive's employment for "Cause" by giving written notice to Executive. For purposes of this Agreement, "Cause" shall mean: (1) Executive's commission of an act of fraud or embezzlement upon Employer or any of its affiliates; or (2) Executive's commission of any willful act intended to injure the reputation, business, or any business relationship of Employer or any of its affiliates; or (3) Executive is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to have committed a felony; or (4) the refusal or failure of Executive to perform Executive's duties with Employer in a competent and professional manner that is not cured by Executive within ten (10) business days after a written demand therefor is delivered to Executive by the Parent Board which specifically identifies the manner in which the Parent Board believes that Executive has not substantially performed Executive's duties; provided, further, however, that if the Parent Board, in good faith, determines that the refusal or failure by Executive is egregious in nature or is not susceptible of cure, then no cure period shall be required hereunder; or (5) the refusal or failure of Executive to comply with any of his material obligations under this Agreement (including any exhibit hereto) that is not cured by Executive within ten (10) business days after a written demand therefor is delivered to Executive by the Parent Board which specifically identifies the manner in which the Parent Board believes Executive has materially breached this Agreement; provided, further, however, that if the Parent Board, in good faith, determines that the refusal or failure by Executive is 5 egregious in nature or is not susceptible of cure, then no cure period shall be required hereunder. (e) Good Reason. Executive may terminate his employment for "Good Reason," by delivering written notice of such termination ("Employer Default Notice") to Employer within sixty (60) days of the occurrence of any of the following events, each of which shall constitute Good Reason: (i) Employer's material breach of any provision of this Agreement, the Stock Incentive Plans or any agreements thereunder, which has not been cured within the allotted time; (ii) a material reduction of Executive's then current title, status, authority, responsibility or duties or the assignment to Executive of any duties materially inconsistent with Executive's then current position; (iii) any material reduction in Executive's salary or benefits; (iv) the failure of any successor entity to assume the terms of this Agreement upon any Change of Control; (v) the relocation of Executive to a facility or location more than fifty (50) miles from Employer's principal offices at the address set forth in the preamble to this Agreement; or (vi) the failure of Employer to renew this Agreement upon the expiration of the Initial Term or any Renewal Term. The Employer Default Notice shall specify the reason for Executive's belief that an event constituting Good Reason has occurred. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any material breach of this Agreement by Employer, or other event constituting Good Reason, shall not constitute Good Reason if any such breach or other event is cured or corrected by Employer within thirty (30) days following delivery to Employer of the Employer Default Notice. (f) Continuing Obligations. Executive acknowledges and agrees that any termination under this Section 4 is not intended, and shall not be deemed or construed, to affect in any way any of Executive's covenants and obligations contained in Sections 6, 7, and 8 hereof, which shall continue in full force and effect beyond such termination for any reason. Section 5. Termination Obligations (a) Resignation. If Executive's employment is terminated voluntarily by Executive without Good Reason, Executive's employment shall terminate without further obligations to Executive other than for payment of the sum of any unpaid Salary determined by the Parent Board and reimbursable expenses and vacation accrued and owing to Executive prior to the termination. The sum of such amounts shall hereinafter be referred to as the "Accrued Obligations," which shall be paid to Executive or Executive's estate or beneficiary within thirty (30) days of the date of termination. If Executive voluntarily terminates his employment without Good Reason and within (30) days of such termination, Employer determines that it would have had Cause to terminate Executive pursuant to Section 4(d), Executive shall be deemed to have been terminated for Cause and the terms of Section 5(b) shall apply. (b) Cause. If Executive's employment is terminated by Employer for Cause, this Agreement shall terminate without further obligations to Executive other than for the timely payment of Accrued Obligations. If it is subsequently determined by an arbitrator, pursuant to Section 19 hereof, that Employer did not have Cause for termination, then Employer's decision to terminate shall be deemed to have been made without Cause and the terms of Section 5(c) shall apply. 6 (c) By Employer Other than for Cause or Death or Disability; By Executive for Good Reason. (1) If (A) Employer terminates Executive's employment for a reason other than Cause, or due to Executive's death or Disability, or (B) Executive terminates his employment for Good Reason, Employer shall have no further obligations to Executive other than for (i) the payment of Accrued Obligations, (ii) severance pay in an amount equal to twenty-four (24) months of Salary to be paid in equal installments in accordance with Employer's payroll practices during the period beginning on the Severance Commencement Date (as defined below) and ending on the 24-month anniversary of the date of the Executive's termination of employment (the "Date of Termination"); provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Severance Commencement Date is the six-month anniversary of the Date of Termination, then Employer shall, as of the six-month anniversary of the Date of Termination, pay to the Executive a lump-sum amount equal to 25% of the Severance Amount (with the other 75% of the Severance Amount payable to the Executive in equal monthly installments during the period beginning on the six-month anniversary of the Date of Termination and ending on the 24-month anniversary thereof), and (iii) a pro rata bonus calculated based on multiplying the percentage of the year Executive worked for Employer during the year of his termination by the Bonus received by Executive during the preceding year and (iv) the reimbursement of premiums otherwise payable by Executive pursuant to COBRA for a period of up to 12 months, or until Executive no longer is eligible for COBRA continuation coverage, whichever is earlier. For purposes of this Section 5, "Severance Commencement Date" shall mean (x) if any stock of Employer or its affiliates is publicly traded on an established securities market or otherwise and the Parent Board (or its delegate) determines in its discretion that as of the Date of Termination the Executive is a "key employee" (within the meaning of Section 416(i) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code")), as interpreted in accordance with Section 409A of the Code and Department of Treasury regulations and other interpretive guidance issued thereunder) and that Section 409A of the Code applies with respect to a payment to the Executive pursuant to Section 5(c)(1)(ii), the six-month anniversary of the Date of Termination; or (y) if the Parent Board (or its delegate) determines in its discretion that the Executive is not such a "key employee" as of the Date of Termination (or that Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code does not apply with respect to a payment to the Executive pursuant to Section 5(c)(1)(ii)), the Date of Termination. The payments described in this Section 5(c)(1), except for those set forth in Section 5(c)(1)(ii) and (iv), shall be made within thirty (30) days of the Date of Termination. (2) If Executive terminates his employment for Good Reason and it is subsequently determined by an arbitrator, pursuant to Section 20 hereof, that Executive did not have Good Reason for termination, then Executive's decision to terminate for Good Reason shall be deemed to have been a voluntary resignation, the terms of Section 5(a) shall apply, and all monies paid to Executive pursuant to this Section 5(c)(1), except for those monies paid pursuant to Section 5(c)(1)(i), shall be immediately returned to Employer. (3) The amounts payable pursuant to Section 5(c)(1) shall be the only amounts Executive shall receive for termination in accordance with this Section 5(c); provided, however, that no amounts shall be payable pursuant to this section 5(c) on or following the date Executive breaches any of Sections 7, 8 or 9 of this Agreement. 7 (d) Mitigation. In the event Executive's employment with Employer is terminated pursuant to this Section 5, Executive shall be obligated to mitigate any severance payments due to Executive in accordance with Section 5(c)(1)(ii). Executive shall be required to notify Employer, in writing, within seven (7) days of obtaining subsequent employment by an unrelated party, which shall include, without limitation, self-employment, consulting or other arrangement, but not passive investment activities. In the event Executive obtains other employment during any severance payout period described in Section 5(c)(1)(ii), the severance payments due to Executive thereunder shall be reduced to an amount equal to the lesser of (i) fifty (50%) percent of Executive's Salary immediately prior to the Date of Termination or (ii) fifty (50%) percent of Executive's base compensation received for subsequent employment, self-employment, consulting or other arrangement, commencing on the date Executive commences providing services in his new capacity. Nothing herein shall require Executive to seek employment, self-employment, consulting or other arrangement. (e) Release. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no severance payments required hereunder shall be made by Employer until such time as Executive shall execute a general release for the benefit of Employer and its affiliates in a form satisfactory to Employer. Such general release shall not apply to (i) Executive's rights under any Stock Incentive Plan award agreements or (ii) Executive's rights, as applicable, to indemnification under Employer's charter or bylaws, any indemnification agreement or applicable law. (f) Equity Compensation Awards. Except as expressly provided herein, except for the provisions of Section 3(c) of this Agreement, the terms of the Stock Incentive Plans and any related award agreements and/or notice of grant shall govern the termination, vesting, and/or exercise of Executive's stock options or other equity awards upon the termination of Executive's employment for any reason. (g) Exclusive Remedy. Executive agrees that the payments set forth in this Agreement shall constitute the exclusive and sole remedy for any termination of Executive's employment and Executive covenants not to assert or pursue any other remedies, at law or in equity, with respect to this Agreement. (h) Termination of Executive's Office. Following the termination of Executive's employment for any reason, Executive shall hold no further office or position with Employer or any of its affiliates. Section 6. Parachute Payments. (a) If it is determined by a nationally recognized United States public accounting firm selected by the Employer and approved in writing by the Executive (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld) (the "Auditors") that any payment or benefit made or provided to the Executive in connection with this Agreement or otherwise (including without limitation any Stock Option or other equity based award vesting) (collectively, a "Payment"), would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (the "Parachute Tax"), then the Employer shall pay to the Executive, prior to the time the Parachute Tax is payable with respect to such Payment, an additional payment (a "Gross-Up Payment") in an amount such that, after payment by the Executive of all taxes (including any Parachute Tax) imposed upon the 8 Gross-Up Payment, the Executive retains an amount of the Gross-Up Payment equal to the Parachute Tax imposed upon the Payment. The amount of any Gross-Up Payment shall be determined by the Auditors, subject to adjustment, as necessary, as a result of any Internal Revenue Service position. For purposes of making the calculations required by this Agreement, the Auditors may make reasonable assumptions and approximations concerning applicable taxes and may rely on reasonable, good faith interpretations concerning the application of Sections 280G and 4999 of the Code, provided that the Auditors' determinations must be made with substantial authority (within the meaning of Section 6662 of the Code). (b) The federal tax returns filed by the Executive (and any filing made by a consolidated tax group which includes the Employer) shall be prepared and filed on a basis consistent with the determination of the Auditors with respect to the Parachute Tax payable by the Executive. The Executive shall make proper payment of the amount of any Parachute Tax, and at the request of the Employer, provide to the Employer true and correct copies (with any amendments) of his federal income tax return as filed with the Internal Revenue Service, and such other documents reasonably requested by the Employer, evidencing such payment. If, after the Employer's payment to the Executive of the Gross-Up Payment, the Auditors determine in good faith that the amount of the Gross-Up Payment should be reduced or increased, or such determination is made by the Internal Revenue Service, then within ten (10) business days of such determination, the Executive shall pay to the Employer the amount of any such reduction, or the Employer shall pay to the Executive the amount of any such increase; provided, however, that in no event shall the Executive have any such refund obligation if it is determined by the Employer that to do so would be a violation of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as it may be amended from time to time; and provided, further, that if the Executive has prior thereto paid such amounts to the Internal Revenue Service, such refund shall be due only to the extent that a refund of such amount is received by the Executive; and provided, further, that (i) the fees and expenses of the Auditors (and any other legal and accounting fees) incurred for services rendered in connection with the Auditor's determination of the Parachute Tax or any challenge by the Internal Revenue Service or other taxing authority relating to such determination shall be paid by the Employer and (ii) the Employer shall indemnify and hold the Executive harmless on an after-tax basis for any interest and penalties imposed upon the Executive to the extent that such interest and penalties are related to the Auditor's determination of the Parachute Tax or the Gross-Up Payment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Executive's rights under this Section 6 shall survive the termination of his employment for any reason and the termination or expiration of this Agreement for any reason. Section 7. Restrictions Respecting Confidential Information Executive hereby covenants and agrees that, during his employment and thereafter, Executive will not, under any circumstance, disclose in any way any Confidential Information (as defined below) to any other person other than (i) at the direction of and for the benefit of Employer, (ii) to his attorney or other advisers in connection with Executive's enforcement of his rights hereunder, provided such individuals or entities agree to be bound by the confidentiality restrictions herein contained, and if such Confidential Information is relevant to such enforcement action, to the court or arbitrator, as applicable, subject to a protective order. For the purposes of the foregoing, "Confidential Information" means any information pertaining to the assets, business, creditors, vendors, manufacturers, customers, data, employees, financial 9 condition or affairs, formulae, licenses, methods, operations, procedures, reports, suppliers, systems and technologies of Employer and its affiliates, including (without limitation) the contracts, patents, trade secrets and customer lists developed or otherwise acquired by Employer and its affiliates; provided, however, that Confidential Information shall exclude any information that was, is, or becomes publicly available other than through disclosure by Executive or any other person known to Executive to be subject to confidentiality obligations to Employer. All Confidential Information is and will remain the sole and exclusive property of Employer and its affiliates. Following the termination of his employment, Executive shall return all documents and other tangible items containing Confidential Information to Employer, without retaining any copies, notes or excerpts thereof. Section 8. Proprietary Matters Executive expressly understands and agrees that any and all improvements, inventions, discoveries, processes, or know-how that are generated or conceived by Executive during the Term (collectively, the "Inventions") will be the sole and exclusive property of Employer, and Executive will, whenever requested to do so by Employer (either during the Term or thereafter), execute and assign any and all applications, assignments and/or other instruments and do all things which Employer may deem necessary or appropriate in order to apply for, obtain, maintain, enforce and defend patents, copyrights, trade names or trademarks of the United States or of foreign countries for said Inventions, or in order to assign and convey or otherwise make available to Employer the sole and exclusive right, title, and interest in and to said Inventions, applications, patents, copyrights, trade names or trademarks; provided, however, that the provisions of this Section 8 shall not apply to an Invention that Executive developed entirely on his own time without using Employer's Confidential Information except for those Inventions that either (i) directly and materially relate, at the time of conception or reduction to practice of the invention, to Employer's business, or actual or demonstrably anticipated research or development of Employer, or (ii) directly and materially result from any work performed by Executive for Employer. Executive shall promptly communicate and disclose to Employer all Inventions conceived, developed or made by him during his employment by Employer, whether solely or jointly with others, and whether or not patentable or copyrightable, (a) which relate to any matters or business of the type carried on or being developed by Employer, or (b) which result from or are suggested by any work done by him in the course of his employment by Employer. Executive shall also promptly communicate and disclose to Employer all material other data obtained by him concerning the business or affairs of Employer in the course of his employment by Employer. Section 9. Nonsolicitation/Non-Compete (a) Executive agrees that throughout his employment and for a period of two (2) years following the termination of his employment for any reason, he will not directly or indirectly, own, manage, operate, control, or participate in the ownership, management, operation, or control of, or be connected with, or have any financial interest in, any Competitor. Ownership, for personal investment purposes only, of not to exceed (i) individually, two (2%) percent of the outstanding capital stock of any privately held entity, or (ii) voting stock of any publicly held corporation shall not constitute a violation hereof. For purposes of this Agreement, the term "Competitor" shall mean any individual or entity, present or future, then providing any 10 of the following products or services: (1) a multi-finance source automotive finance portal, (2) electronic contracting for automotive finance or lease transactions, other than at a financing source entity that purchases electronic contracts or leases from automotive dealers, (3) automotive lease, retail and/or balloon payment comparison or desking tools or (4) any other sales or finance and insurance-related products or services for automotive dealerships similar to any products or services offered by Employer or any of its affiliates. (b) Executive agrees that during his employment with Employer and for a period of two (2) years following the termination of his employment for any reason, he will not actively solicit for employment, consulting or any other arrangement any employee of Employer or any of its present or future affiliates (while an affiliate). (c) Executive agrees that during his employment with Employer and for a period of two (2) years following the termination of his employment for any reason, he will not influence or attempt to influence customers of Employer or any of its present or future affiliates, either directly or indirectly, to divert their business to any Competitor. (d) The restrictions contained in this Section 9 are necessary for the protection of the business and goodwill of Employer and are considered by Executive to be reasonable for such purpose. Further, Executive represents that these restrictions will not prevent him from earning a livelihood during the restricted period. (e) This Section 9 shall survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement. Section 10. Equitable Relief Executive acknowledges and agrees that Employer will suffer irreparable damage which cannot be adequately compensated by money damages in the event of a breach, or threatened breach, of any of the terms and provisions of Sections 7, 8 and 9 of this Agreement, and that, in the event of any such breach, or threatened breach, Employer will not have an adequate remedy at law. It is therefore agreed that Employer, in addition to all other such rights, powers, privileges and remedies that it may have, shall be entitled to injunctive relief, specific performance or such other equitable relief as Employer may request to enforce any of those terms and provisions and to enjoin or otherwise restrain any act prohibited thereby, and Executive will not raise and hereby waives any objection or defense that there is an adequate remedy available at law. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 20 of this Agreement, Executive agrees that Employer shall be entitled to seek such injunctive relief, without bond, in a court of competent jurisdiction and Executive hereby consents to the jurisdiction of the state and federal courts of New York for purposes of such an action. Executive agrees that any claim he may have against Employer or any of its affiliates shall not constitute a defense against the issuance of any such equitable relief. The foregoing shall not constitute a waiver of any of Employer's rights, powers, privileges and remedies against or in respect of a breaching party or any other person or thing under this Agreement, or applicable law. 11 Section 11. Notice Any notice, request, demand or other communication hereunder shall be in writing, shall be delivered by hand or sent by registered or certified mail or by reputable overnight delivery service, postage prepaid, to the addressee at the address set forth below (or at such other address as shall be designated hereunder by written notice to the other party hereto) and shall be deemed conclusively to have been given when actually received by the addressee.

Section 1. Term Employer shall continue to employ Executive and Executive agrees to continue such employment, upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, from the Effective Date through and including June 30, 2007 (the "Initial Term"). This Agreement shall renew automatically for successive one year periods (each, a "Renewal Term") unless one party gives notice to the other party, in writing, at least sixty (60) days prior to the expiration of this Agreement (or any renewal) of its desire to terminate the Agreement. The term of this Agreement, including the Initial Term and any Renewal Term, shall be referred to herein as the "Term". Section 2. Executive's Duties (a) Executive shall be Senior Vice President and Chief Information Officer and shall report directly to Employer's Chief Executive Officer or his designee. Executive shall faithfully and diligently perform his duties at the direction of Employer's Chief Executive Officer, or his designee, to the best of Executive's ability. Executive shall (i) devote his best efforts, skill, and ability and full business time and attention to the performance of the services customarily incident to such office, subject to vacations and sick leave as provided herein and in accordance with Employer policy, (ii) carry out his duties in a competent and professional manner; and (iii) generally promote the interests of Employer. Subject to applicable law, Executive shall not knowingly participate in any activity that is detrimental to the interests of Employer, DealerTrack Holdings, Inc. (the "Parent") or any of its affiliates, including, without limitation, any public criticism or disparagement of any type by Executive, through the media or otherwise, of Employer or any of its affiliates or employees, except in connection with the exercise of Executive's rights against Employer or any of its affiliates. (b) Executive agrees to abide by all policies applicable to senior executive officers of Employer promulgated from time to time by Parent or Employer, as applicable, which policies are enforced uniformly and applicable to all similar executives of Employer. (c) Except for such business travel as may be incident to his duties hereunder, Executive shall perform his duties at Employer's offices at the address set forth in the preamble to this Agreement or at such other location as may be approved by Employer. Section 3. Compensation for Executive's Services In consideration of the duties and services to be performed by Executive pursuant to Sections 1 and 2 hereof, Executive shall receive: 1 (a) Salary. Executive shall earn salary (the "Salary") at the annual rate of Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000.00) (the "Minimum Salary"), less all applicable federal, state, and local tax withholdings. Such Salary shall be earned and shall be payable in periodic installments in accordance with Employer's payroll practices. During the Term, the Board of Directors of Parent (the "Parent Board") or the Compensation Committee of the Parent Board (the "Compensation Committee") will review the Salary annually and may in its discretion increase the Salary, but may not reduce it during the Term unless Parent institutes salary reductions across the board; provided, however, that in no event shall the Salary be reduced below the Minimum Salary without Executive's written consent. (b) Bonus. For each fiscal year of Parent (each, a "Fiscal Year"), Executive shall be entitled to receive a cash performance bonus (a "Bonus") which shall be based on the achievement of certain performance benchmarks by Parent and/or Employer during such Fiscal Year which shall be determined by the Parent Board. The Parent Board shall review the target Bonus on an annual basis and, in its sole discretion, may increase such target Bonus for any Fiscal Year. The target Bonus shall not be decreased except in connection with company-wide bonus reductions. The target Bonus for any Fiscal Year shall be at least Forty-Five percent (45%) of the Salary for such Fiscal Year. The Bonus for each Fiscal Year shall be paid, if at all, to Executive on a schedule consistent with Employer's bonus payments to its other similarly situated senior executive officers by no later than two and one half (2 1/2) months following the end of such Fiscal Year. Executive understands and agrees that the Bonus is established in part as an inducement for Executive to remain employed by Employer and except as provided in Section 5(c) of this Agreement, or in the Employer's sole discretion, in the event that Executive's employment is terminated prior to the end of any Fiscal Year during the Term, then Executive shall not receive payment of any Bonus for such year. (c) Equity. In connection with Executive's employment, Executive has been and may continue to be granted stock options ("Stock Options") to purchase equity securities of Parent pursuant to the terms of DealerTrack Holdings, Inc. 2001 Stock Option Plan, effective as of August 10, 2001, as amended ("Stock Option Plan") or may be granted Stock Options or other equity based awards pursuant to the terms of the DealerTrack Holdings, Inc. 2005 Incentive Award Plan, effective as of May 26, 2005, as amended (the "2005 Incentive Award Plan"), or any other successor equity incentive plans (collectively, the "Stock Incentive Plans"). Except as otherwise provided herein, the terms of the Stock Options shall be governed by the Stock Incentive Plans. Executive shall be credited with twenty-four (24) months accelerated vesting of his Stock Options upon termination of Executive's employment by: (1) Employer without Cause (as defined below); or (2) Executive for Good Reason (as defined below). Executive shall be credited with thirty-six (36) months accelerated vesting of his Stock Options upon a Change of Control (defined below). Executive shall be credited with full acceleration and vesting of his Stock Options upon the earlier of: (1) the elimination of Executive's position or a termination of Executive's employment, in either event, within twelve (12) months after a Change of Control; (2) a material negative change in Executive's compensation or responsibilities within twelve (12) months after a Change of Control; or (3) the requirement that Executive be based at a location which is more than fifty (50) miles from Employer's offices at the address set forth in the preamble to this Agreement within twelve (12) months after a Change of Control. Anything in the Stock Incentive Plans to the contrary notwithstanding, if Executive's employment is terminated by Executive with Good Reason or by Employer without Cause, or under 2 circumstances described above which would result in certain accelerated vesting of any unvested Stock Options held by Executive, the unexercised portion of any Stock Options held by Executive will not terminate until the twelve (12) month anniversary of the date of termination of Executive's employment. In the event Employer elects to grant equity based awards other than Options, such grants shall, where appropriate, be subject to equivalent acceleration provisions as set forth in this Section 3(c). For purposes hereof, a "Change of Control" shall mean and includes each of the following: (i) A transaction or series of transactions (other than an offering of shares of Parent to the general public through a registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission) whereby any "person" or related "group" of "persons" (as such terms are used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d)(2) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) (other than the Parent, any of its subsidiaries, an employee benefit plan maintained by the Parent or any of its subsidiaries or a "person" that, prior to such transaction, directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with, the Parent) directly or indirectly acquires beneficial ownership (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) of securities of the Employer or Parent possessing more than 50% of the total combined voting power of the Employer's or Parent's securities outstanding immediately after such acquisition; or (ii) During any period of two consecutive years, individuals who, at the beginning of such period, constitute the Parent Board together with any new director(s) (other than a director designated by a person who shall have entered into an agreement with the Company to effect a transaction described in Section 3(c)(i) or Section 3(c)(iii)) whose election by the Parent Board or nomination for election by the Parent's stockholders was approved by a vote of at least two-thirds of the directors then still in office who either were directors at the beginning of the two-year period or whose election or nomination for election was previously so approved, cease for any reason to constitute a majority thereof; or (iii) The consummation by the Employer or Parent (whether directly involving the Employer or Parent or indirectly involving the Employer or Parent through one or more intermediaries) of (x) a merger, consolidation, reorganization, or business combination or (y) a sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Employer's or Parent's assets in any single transaction or series of related transactions or (z) the acquisition of assets or stock of another entity, in each case other than a transaction: (A) Which results in the Employer's or Parent's voting securities outstanding immediately before the transaction continuing to represent (either by remaining outstanding or by being converted into voting securities of the Employer or Parent or the person that, as a result of the transaction, controls, directly or indirectly, the Employer or Parent or owns, directly or indirectly, all or substantially all of the Employer's or Parent's assets or otherwise succeeds to the business of the Employer or Parent (the Employer or Parent or such person, the "Successor Entity")) directly or indirectly, at least a majority of the combined voting power of the Successor Entity's outstanding voting securities immediately after the transaction, and 3 (B) After which no person or group beneficially owns voting securities representing 50% or more of the combined voting power of the Successor Entity; provided, however, that no person or group shall be treated for purposes of this Section 3(c)(iii) as beneficially owning 50% or more of combined voting power of the Successor Entity solely as a result of the voting power held in the Employer or Parent prior to the consummation of the transaction; or (iv) The Employer's or Parent's stockholders approve a liquidation or dissolution of the Employer or Parent. The Parent Board or its designee shall have full and final authority, which shall be exercised in its discretion, to determine conclusively whether a Change of Control of the Employer or Parent has occurred, and the date of the occurrence of such Change of Control and any incidental matters relating thereto. (d) Benefits. Employer shall provide Executive with the right to participate in and receive benefits from all life, accident, disability, medical and pension plans, and all similar benefits as are from time to time in effect and are generally made available to similar situated senior executive officers of Employer. The amount and extent of benefits to which Executive is entitled shall be governed by the specific benefit plan, as it may be amended from time to time. (e) Expenses. Employer shall promptly reimburse Executive for reasonable expenses for cellular telephone usage, entertainment, travel, meals, lodging and similar items incurred in the conduct of Employer's business. Such expenses shall be reimbursed in accordance with Employer's expense reimbursement policies and guidelines. (f) Vacation; Sick Leave. During the Term, Executive shall be entitled to four weeks (4) weeks vacation per year, paid holidays, sick leave, and similar benefits, to be earned and used in accordance with Employer's policy and procedure for other similarly situated senior executive officers. (g) Modification. Employer reserves the right to modify, suspend or discontinue any and all of the above plans, practices, policies and programs referenced in Sections 3(d) and (e) at any time in its discretion without recourse by Executive so long as such action is taken generally with respect to other similarly situated senior executive officers. Any such modification, suspension or discontinuance of the plans, practices and policies referenced in Section 3(e) will not apply to otherwise reimbursable expenses incurred by Executive prior to any such modification, suspension or discontinuance. Section 4. Termination of Employment (a) Resignation. Executive may voluntarily terminate his employment with Employer, at any time, with or without Good Reason, upon written notice to Employer. (b) Termination. Employer may terminate Executive's employment at any time, with or without Cause, upon written notice to Executive. 4 (c) Death or Disability. Executive's employment shall terminate immediately upon Executive's death. In the event Employer, in good faith, determines that Executive is unable to perform the functions of his position due to a Disability (as defined below), it may notify Executive in writing of its intention to terminate Executive's employment and Executive's employment with Employer shall terminate effective on the thirtieth (30th) day after receipt of such notice by Executive. For the purposes of this Agreement, "Disability" shall mean a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits a major life activity of Executive and renders Executive unable to perform the essential functions of his position even with reasonable accommodation (that does not impose an undue hardship on Employer), and which has lasted at least (i) sixty (60) consecutive days, (ii) the balance of Executive's entitlement to leave, if any, under the Family and Medical Leave Act, or other similar statute or (iii) the balance of any election period under the Employer's long term disability program (without regard to whether Executive is awarded benefits under such program), whichever is longer. (d) Cause. Employer may immediately terminate Executive's employment for "Cause" by giving written notice to Executive. For purposes of this Agreement, "Cause" shall mean: (1) Executive's commission of an act of fraud or embezzlement upon Employer or any of its affiliates; or (2) Executive's commission of any willful act intended to injure the reputation, business, or any business relationship of Employer or any of its affiliates; or (3) Executive is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to have committed a felony; or (4) the refusal or failure of Executive to perform Executive's duties with Employer in a competent and professional manner that is not cured by Executive within ten (10) business days after a written demand therefor is delivered to Executive by the Board of Directors of Employer ("Board") which specifically identifies the manner in which the Board believes that Executive has not substantially performed Executive's duties; provided, further, however, that if the Board, in good faith, determines that the refusal or failure by Executive is egregious in nature or is not susceptible of cure, then no cure period shall be required hereunder; or (5) the refusal or failure of Executive to comply with any of his material obligations under this Agreement (including any exhibit hereto) that is not cured by Executive within ten (10) business days after a written demand therefor is delivered to Executive by the Board which specifically identifies the manner in which the Board believes Executive has materially breached this Agreement; provided, further, however, that if the Board, in good faith, 5 determines that the refusal or failure by Executive is egregious in nature or is not susceptible of cure, then no cure period shall be required hereunder. (e) Good Reason. Executive may terminate his employment for "Good Reason," by delivering written notice of such termination ("Employer Default Notice") to Employer within sixty (60) days of the occurrence of any of the following events, each of which shall constitute Good Reason: (i) Employer's material breach of any provision of this Agreement, the Stock Incentive Plans or any agreements thereunder, which has not been cured within the allotted time; (ii) a material reduction of Executive's then current title, status, authority, responsibility or duties or the assignment to Executive of any duties materially inconsistent with Executive's then current position; (iii) any material reduction in Executive's salary or benefits; (iv) the failure of any successor entity to assume the terms of this Agreement upon any Change of Control; (v) the relocation of Executive to a facility or location more than fifty (50) miles from Employer's principal offices at the address set forth in the preamble to this Agreement; or (vi) the failure of Employer to renew this Agreement upon the expiration of the Initial Term or any Renewal Term. The Employer Default Notice shall specify the reason for Executive's belief that an event constituting Good Reason has occurred. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any material breach of this Agreement by Employer, or other event constituting Good Reason, shall not constitute Good Reason if any such breach or other event is cured or corrected by Employer within thirty (30) days following delivery to Employer of the Employer Default Notice. (f) Continuing Obligations. Executive acknowledges and agrees that any termination under this Section 4 is not intended, and shall not be deemed or construed, to affect in any way any of Executive's covenants and obligations contained in Sections 6, 7, and 8 hereof, which shall continue in full force and effect beyond such termination for any reason. Section 5. Termination Obligations (a) Resignation. If Executive's employment is terminated voluntarily by Executive without Good Reason, Executive's employment shall terminate without further obligations to Executive other than for payment of the sum of any unpaid Salary determined by the Parent Board and reimbursable expenses and vacation accrued and owing to Executive prior to the termination. The sum of such amounts shall hereinafter be referred to as the "Accrued Obligations," which shall be paid to Executive or Executive's estate or beneficiary within thirty (30) days of the date of termination. If Executive voluntarily terminates his employment without Good Reason and within (30) days of such termination, Employer determines that it would have had Cause to terminate Executive pursuant to Section 4(d), Executive shall be deemed to have been terminated for Cause and the terms of Section 5(b) shall apply. (b) Cause. If Executive's employment is terminated by Employer for Cause, this Agreement shall terminate without further obligations to Executive other than for the timely payment of Accrued Obligations. If it is subsequently determined by an arbitrator, pursuant to Section 19 hereof, that Employer did not have Cause for termination, then Employer's decision to terminate shall be deemed to have been made without Cause and the terms of Section 5(c) shall apply. 6 (c) By Employer Other than for Cause or Death or Disability; By Executive for Good Reason. (1) If (A) Employer terminates Executive's employment for a reason other than Cause, or due to Executive's death or Disability, or (B) Executive terminates his employment for Good Reason, Employer shall have no further obligations to Executive other than for (i) the payment of Accrued Obligations, (ii) severance pay in an amount equal to twenty-four (24) months of Salary to be paid in equal installments in accordance with Employer's payroll practices during the period beginning on the Severance Commencement Date (as defined below) and ending on the 24-month anniversary of the date of the Executive's termination of employment (the "Date of Termination"); provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Severance Commencement Date is the six-month anniversary of the Date of Termination, then Employer shall, as of the six-month anniversary of the Date of Termination, pay to the Executive a lump-sum amount equal to 25% of the Severance Amount (with the other 75% of the Severance Amount payable to the Executive in equal monthly installments during the period beginning on the six-month anniversary of the Date of Termination and ending on the 24-month anniversary thereof), and (iii) a pro rata bonus calculated based on multiplying the percentage of the year Executive worked for Employer during the year of his termination by the Bonus received by Executive during the preceding year and (iv) the reimbursement of premiums otherwise payable by Executive pursuant to COBRA for a period of up to 12 months, or until Executive no longer is eligible for COBRA continuation coverage, whichever is earlier. For purposes of this Section 5, "Severance Commencement Date" shall mean (x) if any stock of Parent or its affiliates is publicly traded on an established securities market or otherwise and the Parent Board (or its delegate) determines in its discretion that as of the Date of Termination the Executive is a "key employee" (within the meaning of Section 416(i) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code")), as interpreted in accordance with Section 409A of the Code and Department of Treasury regulations and other interpretive guidance issued thereunder) and that Section 409A of the Code applies with respect to a payment to the Executive pursuant to Section 5(c)(1)(ii), the six-month anniversary of the Date of Termination; or (y) if the Parent Board (or its delegate) determines in its discretion that the Executive is not such a "key employee" as of the Date of Termination (or that Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code does not apply with respect to a payment to the Executive pursuant to Section 5(c)(1)(ii)), the Date of Termination. The payments described in this Section 5(c)(1), except for those set forth in Section 5(c)(1)(ii) and (iv), shall be made within thirty (30) days of the Date of Termination. (2) If Executive terminates his employment for Good Reason and it is subsequently determined by an arbitrator, pursuant to Section 20 hereof, that Executive did not have Good Reason for termination, then Executive's decision to terminate for Good Reason shall be deemed to have been a voluntary resignation, the terms of Section 5(a) shall apply, and all monies paid to Executive pursuant to this Section 5(c)(1), except for those monies paid pursuant to Section 5(c)(1)(i), shall be immediately returned to Employer. (3) The amounts payable pursuant to Section 5(c)(1) shall be the only amounts Executive shall receive for termination in accordance with this Section 5(c); provided, however, that no amounts shall be payable pursuant to this section 5(c) on or following the date Executive breaches any of Sections 7, 8 or 9 of this Agreement. 7 (d) Mitigation. In the event Executive's employment with Employer is terminated pursuant to this Section 5, Executive shall be obligated to mitigate any severance payments due to Executive in accordance with Section 5(c)(1)(ii). Executive shall be required to notify Employer, in writing, within seven (7) days of obtaining subsequent employment by an unrelated party, which shall include, without limitation, self-employment, consulting or other arrangement, but not passive investment activities. In the event Executive obtains other employment during any severance payout period described in Section 5(c)(1)(ii), the severance payments due to Executive thereunder shall be reduced to an amount equal to the lesser of (i) fifty (50%) percent of Executive's Salary immediately prior to the Date of Termination or (ii) fifty (50%) percent of Executive's base compensation received for subsequent employment, self-employment, consulting or other arrangement, commencing on the date Executive commences providing services in his new capacity. Nothing herein shall require Executive to seek employment, self-employment, consulting or other arrangement. (e) Release. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no severance payments required hereunder shall be made by Employer until such time as Executive shall execute a general release for the benefit of Employer and its affiliates in a form satisfactory to Employer. Such general release shall not apply to (i) Executive's rights under any Stock Incentive Plan award agreements or (ii) Executive's rights, as applicable, to indemnification under Employer's or Parent's charter or bylaws, any indemnification agreement or applicable law. (f) Equity Compensation Awards. Except as expressly provided herein, except for the provisions of Section 3(c) of this Agreement, the terms of the Stock Incentive Plans and any related award agreements and/or notice of grant shall govern the termination, vesting, and/or exercise of Executive's stock options or other equity awards upon the termination of Executive's employment for any reason. (g) Exclusive Remedy. Executive agrees that the payments set forth in this Agreement shall constitute the exclusive and sole remedy for any termination of Executive's employment and Executive covenants not to assert or pursue any other remedies, at law or in equity, with respect to this Agreement. (h) Termination of Executive's Office. Following the termination of Executive's employment for any reason, Executive shall hold no further office or position with Employer or any of its affiliates. Section 6. Parachute Payments. (a) If it is determined by a nationally recognized United States public accounting firm selected by the Employer and approved in writing by the Executive (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld) (the "Auditors") that any payment or benefit made or provided to the Executive in connection with this Agreement or otherwise (including without limitation any Stock Option or other equity based award vesting) (collectively, a "Payment"), would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (the "Parachute Tax"), then the Employer shall pay to the Executive, prior to the time the Parachute Tax is payable with respect to such Payment, an additional payment (a "Gross-Up Payment") in an amount such that, 8 after payment by the Executive of all taxes (including any Parachute Tax) imposed upon the Gross-Up Payment, the Executive retains an amount of the Gross-Up Payment equal to the Parachute Tax imposed upon the Payment. The amount of any Gross-Up Payment shall be determined by the Auditors, subject to adjustment, as necessary, as a result of any Internal Revenue Service position. For purposes of making the calculations required by this Agreement, the Auditors may make reasonable assumptions and approximations concerning applicable taxes and may rely on reasonable, good faith interpretations concerning the application of Sections 280G and 4999 of the Code, provided that the Auditors' determinations must be made with substantial authority (within the meaning of Section 6662 of the Code). (b) The federal tax returns filed by the Executive (and any filing made by a consolidated tax group which includes the Employer) shall be prepared and filed on a basis consistent with the determination of the Auditors with respect to the Parachute Tax payable by the Executive. The Executive shall make proper payment of the amount of any Parachute Tax, and at the request of the Employer, provide to the Employer true and correct copies (with any amendments) of his federal income tax return as filed with the Internal Revenue Service, and such other documents reasonably requested by the Employer, evidencing such payment. If, after the Employer's payment to the Executive of the Gross-Up Payment, the Auditors determine in good faith that the amount of the Gross-Up Payment should be reduced or increased, or such determination is made by the Internal Revenue Service, then within ten (10) business days of such determination, the Executive shall pay to the Employer the amount of any such reduction, or the Employer shall pay to the Executive the amount of any such increase; provided, however, that in no event shall the Executive have any such refund obligation if it is determined by the Employer that to do so would be a violation of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as it may be amended from time to time; and provided, further, that if the Executive has prior thereto paid such amounts to the Internal Revenue Service, such refund shall be due only to the extent that a refund of such amount is received by the Executive; and provided, further, that (i) the fees and expenses of the Auditors (and any other legal and accounting fees) incurred for services rendered in connection with the Auditor's determination of the Parachute Tax or any challenge by the Internal Revenue Service or other taxing authority relating to such determination shall be paid by the Employer and (ii) the Employer shall indemnify and hold the Executive harmless on an after-tax basis for any interest and penalties imposed upon the Executive to the extent that such interest and penalties are related to the Auditor's determination of the Parachute Tax or the Gross-Up Payment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Executive's rights under this Section 6 shall survive the termination of his employment for any reason and the termination or expiration of this Agreement for any reason. Section 7. Restrictions Respecting Confidential Information Executive hereby covenants and agrees that, during his employment and thereafter, Executive will not, under any circumstance, disclose in any way any Confidential Information (as defined below) to any other person other than (i) at the direction of and for the benefit of Employer, (ii) to his attorney or other advisers in connection with Executive's enforcement of his rights hereunder, provided such individuals or entities agree to be bound by the confidentiality restrictions herein contained, and if such Confidential Information is relevant to such enforcement action, to the court or arbitrator, as applicable, subject to a protective order. For the purposes of the foregoing, "Confidential Information" means any information pertaining 9 to the assets, business, creditors, vendors, manufacturers, customers, data, employees, financial condition or affairs, formulae, licenses, methods, operations, procedures, reports, suppliers, systems and technologies of Employer and its affiliates, including (without limitation) the contracts, patents, trade secrets and customer lists developed or otherwise acquired by Employer and its affiliates; provided, however, that Confidential Information shall exclude any information that was, is, or becomes publicly available other than through disclosure by Executive or any other person known to Executive to be subject to confidentiality obligations to Employer. All Confidential Information is and will remain the sole and exclusive property of Employer and its affiliates. Following the termination of his employment, Executive shall return all documents and other tangible items containing Confidential Information to Employer, without retaining any copies, notes or excerpts thereof. Section 8. Proprietary Matters Executive expressly understands and agrees that any and all improvements, inventions, discoveries, processes, or know-how that are generated or conceived by Executive during the Term (collectively, the "Inventions") will be the sole and exclusive property of Employer, and Executive will, whenever requested to do so by Employer (either during the Term or thereafter), execute and assign any and all applications, assignments and/or other instruments and do all things which Employer may deem necessary or appropriate in order to apply for, obtain, maintain, enforce and defend patents, copyrights, trade names or trademarks of the United States or of foreign countries for said Inventions, or in order to assign and convey or otherwise make available to Employer the sole and exclusive right, title, and interest in and to said Inventions, applications, patents, copyrights, trade names or trademarks; provided, however, that the provisions of this Section 8 shall not apply to an Invention that Executive developed entirely on his own time without using Employer's Confidential Information except for those Inventions that either (i) directly and materially relate, at the time of conception or reduction to practice of the invention, to Employer's business, or actual or demonstrably anticipated research or development of Employer, or (ii) directly and materially result from any work performed by Executive for Employer. Executive shall promptly communicate and disclose to Employer all Inventions conceived, developed or made by him during his employment by Employer, whether solely or jointly with others, and whether or not patentable or copyrightable, (a) which relate to any matters or business of the type carried on or being developed by Employer, or (b) which result from or are suggested by any work done by him in the course of his employment by Employer. Executive shall also promptly communicate and disclose to Employer all material other data obtained by him concerning the business or affairs of Employer in the course of his employment by Employer. Section 9. Nonsolicitation/Non-Compete (a) Executive agrees that throughout his employment and for a period of two (2) years following the termination of his employment for any reason, he will not directly or indirectly, own, manage, operate, control, or participate in the ownership, management, operation, or control of, or be connected with, or have any financial interest in, any Competitor. Ownership, for personal investment purposes only, of not to exceed (i) individually, two (2%) percent of the outstanding capital stock of any privately held entity, or (ii) voting stock of any publicly held corporation shall not constitute a violation hereof. For purposes of this Agreement, 10 the term "Competitor" shall mean any individual or entity, present or future, then providing any of the following products or services: (1) a multi-finance source automotive finance portal, (2) electronic contracting for automotive finance or lease transactions, other than at a financing source entity that purchases electronic contracts or leases from automotive dealers, (3) automotive lease, retail and/or balloon payment comparison or desking tools or (4) any other sales or finance and insurance-related products or services for automotive dealerships similar to any products or services offered by Employer or any of its affiliates. (b) Executive agrees that during his employment with Employer and for a period of two (2) years following the termination of his employment for any reason, he will not actively solicit for employment, consulting or any other arrangement any employee of Employer or any of its present or future affiliates (while an affiliate). (c) Executive agrees that during his employment with Employer and for a period of two (2) years following the termination of his employment for any reason, he will not influence or attempt to influence customers of Employer or any of its present or future affiliates, either directly or indirectly, to divert their business to any Competitor. (d) The restrictions contained in this Section 9 are necessary for the protection of the business and goodwill of Employer and are considered by Executive to be reasonable for such purpose. Further, Executive represents that these restrictions will not prevent him from earning a livelihood during the restricted period. (e) This Section 9 shall survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement. Section 10. Equitable Relief Executive acknowledges and agrees that Employer will suffer irreparable damage which cannot be adequately compensated by money damages in the event of a breach, or threatened breach, of any of the terms and provisions of Sections 7, 8 and 9 of this Agreement, and that, in the event of any such breach, or threatened breach, Employer will not have an adequate remedy at law. It is therefore agreed that Employer, in addition to all other such rights, powers, privileges and remedies that it may have, shall be entitled to injunctive relief, specific performance or such other equitable relief as Employer may request to enforce any of those terms and provisions and to enjoin or otherwise restrain any act prohibited thereby, and Executive will not raise and hereby waives any objection or defense that there is an adequate remedy available at law. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 20 of this Agreement, Executive agrees that Employer shall be entitled to seek such injunctive relief, without bond, in a court of competent jurisdiction and Executive hereby consents to the jurisdiction of the state and federal courts of New York for purposes of such an action. Executive agrees that any claim he may have against Employer or any of its affiliates shall not constitute a defense against the issuance of any such equitable relief. The foregoing shall not constitute a waiver of any of Employer's rights, powers, privileges and remedies against or in respect of a breaching party or any other person or thing under this Agreement, or applicable law. 11 Section 11. Notice Any notice, request, demand or other communication hereunder shall be in writing, shall be delivered by hand or sent by registered or certified mail or by reputable overnight delivery service, postage prepaid, to the addressee at the address set forth below (or at such other address as shall be designated hereunder by written notice to the other party hereto) and shall be deemed conclusively to have been given when actually received by the addressee.

The term of this Agreement, including the Initial Term and any Renewal Term, shall be referred to herein as the "Term". Section 2. Executive's Duties (a) Executive shall be Senior Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary and shall report directly to Employer's Chief Executive Officer or his designee.

(c) Except for such business travel as may be incident to his duties hereunder, Executive shall perform his duties at Employer's offices at the address set forth in the preamble to this Agreement or at such other location as may be approved by Employer. Section 3. Compensation for Executive's Services In consideration of the duties and services to be performed by Executive pursuant to Sections 1 and 2 hereof, Executive shall receive: (a) Salary. Executive shall earn salary (the "Salary") at the annual rate of Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000.00) (the "Minimum Salary"), less all applicable federal, state, and local tax withholdings. Such Salary shall be earned and shall be payable in periodic installments in accordance with Employer's payroll practices. During the Term, the Board of Directors of Employer (the "Parent Board") or the Compensation Committee of the Parent Board (the "Compensation Committee") will review the Salary annually and may in its discretion increase the Salary, but may not reduce it during the Term unless Employer institutes salary reductions across the board; provided, however, that in no event shall the Salary be reduced below the Minimum Salary without Executive's written consent. (b) Bonus. For each fiscal year of Employer (each, a "Fiscal Year"), Executive shall be entitled to receive a cash performance bonus (a "Bonus") which shall be based on the achievement of certain performance benchmarks by Employer during such Fiscal Year which shall be determined by the Parent Board. The Parent Board shall review the target Bonus on an annual basis and, in its sole discretion, may increase such target Bonus for any Fiscal Year. The target Bonus shall not be decreased except in connection with company-wide bonus reductions. The target Bonus for any Fiscal Year shall be at least Forty-Five percent (45%) of the Salary for such Fiscal Year. The Bonus for each Fiscal Year shall be paid, if at all, to Executive on a schedule consistent with Employer's bonus payments to its other similarly situated senior executive officers by no later than two and one half (2 1/2) months following the end of such Fiscal Year. Executive understands and agrees that the Bonus is established in part as an inducement for Executive to remain employed by Employer and except as provided in Section 5(c) of this Agreement, or in the Employer's sole discretion, in the event that Executive's employment is terminated prior to the end of any Fiscal Year during the Term, then Executive shall not receive payment of any Bonus for such year. (c) Equity. In connection with Executive's employment, Executive has been and may continue to be granted stock options ("Stock Options") to purchase equity securities of Employer pursuant to the terms of DealerTrack Holdings, Inc. 2001 Stock Option Plan, effective as of August 10, 2001, as amended ("Stock Option Plan") or may be granted Stock Options or other equity based awards pursuant to the terms of the DealerTrack Holdings, Inc. 2005 Incentive Award Plan, effective as of May 26, 2005, as amended (the "2005 Incentive Award Plan"), or any other successor equity incentive plans (collectively, the "Stock Incentive Plans").

Executive shall be credited with twenty-four (24) months accelerated vesting of his Stock Options upon termination of Executive's employment by: (1) Employer without Cause (as defined below); or (2) Executive for Good Reason (as defined below). Executive shall be credited with thirty-six (36) months accelerated vesting of his Stock Options upon a Change of Control (defined below).

Anything in the Stock Incentive Plans to the contrary notwithstanding, if Executive's employment is terminated by Executive with Good Reason or by Employer without Cause, or 2 under circumstances described above which would result in certain accelerated vesting of any unvested Stock Options held by Executive, the unexercised portion of any Stock Options held by Executive will not terminate until the twelve (12) month anniversary of the date of termination of Executive's employment. In the event Employer elects to grant equity based awards other than Options, such grants shall, where appropriate, be subject to equivalent acceleration provisions as set forth in this Section 3(c).

The Parent Board or its designee shall have full and final authority, which shall be exercised in its discretion, to determine conclusively whether a Change of Control of the Employer has occurred, and the date of the occurrence of such Change of Control and any incidental matters relating thereto. (d) Benefits. Employer shall provide Executive with the right to participate in and receive benefits from all life, accident, disability, medical and pension plans, and all similar benefits as are from time to time in effect and are generally made available to similar situated senior executive officers of Employer.

Any such modification, suspension or discontinuance of the plans, practices and policies referenced in Section 3(e) will not apply to otherwise reimbursable expenses incurred by Executive prior to any such modification, suspension or discontinuance. Section 4. Termination of Employment (a) Resignation. Executive may voluntarily terminate his employment with Employer, at any time, with or without Good Reason, upon written notice to Employer. (b) Termination. Employer may terminate Executive's employment at any time, with or without Cause, upon written notice to Executive. 4 (c) Death or Disability. Executive's employment shall terminate immediately upon Executive's death. In the event Employer, in good faith, determines that Executive is unable to perform the functions of his position due to a Disability (as defined below), it may notify Executive in writing of its intention to terminate Executive's employment and Executive's employment with Employer shall terminate effective on the thirtieth (30th) day after receipt of such notice by Executive. For the purposes of this Agreement, "Disability" shall mean a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits a major life activity of Executive and renders Executive unable to perform the essential functions of his position even with reasonable accommodation (that does not impose an undue hardship on Employer), and which has lasted at least (i) sixty (60) consecutive days, (ii) the balance of Executive's entitlement to leave, if any, under the Family and Medical Leave Act, or other similar statute or (iii) the balance of any election period under the Employer's long term disability program (without regard to whether Executive is awarded benefits under such program), whichever is longer. (d) Cause. Employer may immediately terminate Executive's employment for "Cause" by giving written notice to Executive. For purposes of this Agreement, "Cause" shall mean: (1) Executive's commission of an act of fraud or embezzlement upon Employer or any of its affiliates; or (2) Executive's commission of any willful act intended to injure the reputation, business, or any business relationship of Employer or any of its affiliates; or (3) Executive is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to have committed a felony; or (4) the refusal or failure of Executive to perform Executive's duties with Employer in a competent and professional manner that is not cured by Executive within ten (10) business days after a written demand therefor is delivered to Executive by the Parent Board which specifically identifies the manner in which the Parent Board believes that Executive has not substantially performed Executive's duties; provided, further, however, that if the Parent Board, in good faith, determines that the refusal or failure by Executive is egregious in nature or is not susceptible of cure, then no cure period shall be required hereunder; or (5) the refusal or failure of Executive to comply with any of his material obligations under this Agreement (including any exhibit hereto) that is not cured by Executive within ten (10) business days after a written demand therefor is delivered to Executive by the Parent Board which specifically identifies the manner in which the Parent Board believes Executive has materially breached this Agreement; provided, further, however, that if the Parent Board, in good faith, determines that the refusal or failure by Executive is 5 egregious in nature or is not susceptible of cure, then no cure period shall be required hereunder. (e) Good Reason. Executive may terminate his employment for "Good Reason," by delivering written notice of such termination ("Employer Default Notice") to Employer within sixty (60) days of the occurrence of any of the following events, each of which shall constitute Good Reason: (i) Employer's material breach of any provision of this Agreement, the Stock Incentive Plans or any agreements thereunder, which has not been cured within the allotted time; (ii) a material reduction of Executive's then current title, status, authority, responsibility or duties or the assignment to Executive of any duties materially inconsistent with Executive's then current position; (iii) any material reduction in Executive's salary or benefits; (iv) the failure of any successor entity to assume the terms of this Agreement upon any Change of Control; (v) the relocation of Executive to a facility or location more than fifty (50) miles from Employer's principal offices at the address set forth in the preamble to this Agreement; or (vi) the failure of Employer to renew this Agreement upon the expiration of the Initial Term or any Renewal Term. The Employer Default Notice shall specify the reason for Executive's belief that an event constituting Good Reason has occurred. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any material breach of this Agreement by Employer, or other event constituting Good Reason, shall not constitute Good Reason if any such breach or other event is cured or corrected by Employer within thirty (30) days following delivery to Employer of the Employer Default Notice. (f) Continuing Obligations. Executive acknowledges and agrees that any termination under this Section 4 is not intended, and shall not be deemed or construed, to affect in any way any of Executive's covenants and obligations contained in Sections 6, 7, and 8 hereof, which shall continue in full force and effect beyond such termination for any reason. Section 5. Termination Obligations (a) Resignation. If Executive's employment is terminated voluntarily by Executive without Good Reason, Executive's employment shall terminate without further obligations to Executive other than for payment of the sum of any unpaid Salary determined by the Parent Board and reimbursable expenses and vacation accrued and owing to Executive prior to the termination. The sum of such amounts shall hereinafter be referred to as the "Accrued Obligations," which shall be paid to Executive or Executive's estate or beneficiary within thirty (30) days of the date of termination. If Executive voluntarily terminates his employment without Good Reason and within (30) days of such termination, Employer determines that it would have had Cause to terminate Executive pursuant to Section 4(d), Executive shall be deemed to have been terminated for Cause and the terms of Section 5(b) shall apply. (b) Cause. If Executive's employment is terminated by Employer for Cause, this Agreement shall terminate without further obligations to Executive other than for the timely payment of Accrued Obligations. If it is subsequently determined by an arbitrator, pursuant to Section 19 hereof, that Employer did not have Cause for termination, then Employer's decision to terminate shall be deemed to have been made without Cause and the terms of Section 5(c) shall apply. 6 (c) By Employer Other than for Cause or Death or Disability; By Executive for Good Reason. (1) If (A) Employer terminates Executive's employment for a reason other than Cause, or due to Executive's death or Disability, or (B) Executive terminates his employment for Good Reason, Employer shall have no further obligations to Executive other than for (i) the payment of Accrued Obligations, (ii) severance pay in an amount equal to twenty-four (24) months of Salary to be paid in equal installments in accordance with Employer's payroll practices during the period beginning on the Severance Commencement Date (as defined below) and ending on the 24-month anniversary of the date of the Executive's termination of employment (the "Date of Termination"); provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Severance Commencement Date is the six-month anniversary of the Date of Termination, then Employer shall, as of the six-month anniversary of the Date of Termination, pay to the Executive a lump-sum amount equal to 25% of the Severance Amount (with the other 75% of the Severance Amount payable to the Executive in equal monthly installments during the period beginning on the six-month anniversary of the Date of Termination and ending on the 24-month anniversary thereof), and (iii) a pro rata bonus calculated based on multiplying the percentage of the year Executive worked for Employer during the year of his termination by the Bonus received by Executive during the preceding year and (iv) the reimbursement of premiums otherwise payable by Executive pursuant to COBRA for a period of up to 12 months, or until Executive no longer is eligible for COBRA continuation coverage, whichever is earlier. For purposes of this Section 5, "Severance Commencement Date" shall mean (x) if any stock of Employer or its affiliates is publicly traded on an established securities market or otherwise and the Parent Board (or its delegate) determines in its discretion that as of the Date of Termination the Executive is a "key employee" (within the meaning of Section 416(i) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code")), as interpreted in accordance with Section 409A of the Code and Department of Treasury regulations and other interpretive guidance issued thereunder) and that Section 409A of the Code applies with respect to a payment to the Executive pursuant to Section 5(c)(1)(ii), the six-month anniversary of the Date of Termination; or (y) if the Parent Board (or its delegate) determines in its discretion that the Executive is not such a "key employee" as of the Date of Termination (or that Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code does not apply with respect to a payment to the Executive pursuant to Section 5(c)(1)(ii)), the Date of Termination. The payments described in this Section 5(c)(1), except for those set forth in Section 5(c)(1)(ii) and (iv), shall be made within thirty (30) days of the Date of Termination. (2) If Executive terminates his employment for Good Reason and it is subsequently determined by an arbitrator, pursuant to Section 20 hereof, that Executive did not have Good Reason for termination, then Executive's decision to terminate for Good Reason shall be deemed to have been a voluntary resignation, the terms of Section 5(a) shall apply, and all monies paid to Executive pursuant to this Section 5(c)(1), except for those monies paid pursuant to Section 5(c)(1)(i), shall be immediately returned to Employer. (3) The amounts payable pursuant to Section 5(c)(1) shall be the only amounts Executive shall receive for termination in accordance with this Section 5(c); provided, however, that no amounts shall be payable pursuant to this section 5(c) on or following the date Executive breaches any of Sections 7, 8 or 9 of this Agreement. 7 (d) Mitigation. In the event Executive's employment with Employer is terminated pursuant to this Section 5, Executive shall be obligated to mitigate any severance payments due to Executive in accordance with Section 5(c)(1)(ii). Executive shall be required to notify Employer, in writing, within seven (7) days of obtaining subsequent employment by an unrelated party, which shall include, without limitation, self-employment, consulting or other arrangement, but not passive investment activities. In the event Executive obtains other employment during any severance payout period described in Section 5(c)(1)(ii), the severance payments due to Executive thereunder shall be reduced to an amount equal to the lesser of (i) fifty (50%) percent of Executive's Salary immediately prior to the Date of Termination or (ii) fifty (50%) percent of Executive's base compensation received for subsequent employment, self-employment, consulting or other arrangement, commencing on the date Executive commences providing services in his new capacity. Nothing herein shall require Executive to seek employment, self-employment, consulting or other arrangement. (e) Release. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no severance payments required hereunder shall be made by Employer until such time as Executive shall execute a general release for the benefit of Employer and its affiliates in a form satisfactory to Employer. Such general release shall not apply to (i) Executive's rights under any Stock Incentive Plan award agreements or (ii) Executive's rights, as applicable, to indemnification under Employer's charter or bylaws, any indemnification agreement or applicable law. (f) Equity Compensation Awards. Except as expressly provided herein, except for the provisions of Section 3(c) of this Agreement, the terms of the Stock Incentive Plans and any related award agreements and/or notice of grant shall govern the termination, vesting, and/or exercise of Executive's stock options or other equity awards upon the termination of Executive's employment for any reason. (g) Exclusive Remedy. Executive agrees that the payments set forth in this Agreement shall constitute the exclusive and sole remedy for any termination of Executive's employment and Executive covenants not to assert or pursue any other remedies, at law or in equity, with respect to this Agreement. (h) Termination of Executive's Office. Following the termination of Executive's employment for any reason, Executive shall hold no further office or position with Employer or any of its affiliates. Section 6. Parachute Payments. (a) If it is determined by a nationally recognized United States public accounting firm selected by the Employer and approved in writing by the Executive (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld) (the "Auditors") that any payment or benefit made or provided to the Executive in connection with this Agreement or otherwise (including without limitation any Stock Option or other equity based award vesting) (collectively, a "Payment"), would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (the "Parachute Tax"), then the Employer shall pay to the Executive, prior to the time the Parachute Tax is payable with respect to such Payment, an additional payment (a "Gross-Up Payment") in an amount such that, after payment by the Executive of all taxes (including any Parachute Tax) imposed upon the 8 Gross-Up Payment, the Executive retains an amount of the Gross-Up Payment equal to the Parachute Tax imposed upon the Payment. The amount of any Gross-Up Payment shall be determined by the Auditors, subject to adjustment, as necessary, as a result of any Internal Revenue Service position. For purposes of making the calculations required by this Agreement, the Auditors may make reasonable assumptions and approximations concerning applicable taxes and may rely on reasonable, good faith interpretations concerning the application of Sections 280G and 4999 of the Code, provided that the Auditors' determinations must be made with substantial authority (within the meaning of Section 6662 of the Code). (b) The federal tax returns filed by the Executive (and any filing made by a consolidated tax group which includes the Employer) shall be prepared and filed on a basis consistent with the determination of the Auditors with respect to the Parachute Tax payable by the Executive. The Executive shall make proper payment of the amount of any Parachute Tax, and at the request of the Employer, provide to the Employer true and correct copies (with any amendments) of his federal income tax return as filed with the Internal Revenue Service, and such other documents reasonably requested by the Employer, evidencing such payment. If, after the Employer's payment to the Executive of the Gross-Up Payment, the Auditors determine in good faith that the amount of the Gross-Up Payment should be reduced or increased, or such determination is made by the Internal Revenue Service, then within ten (10) business days of such determination, the Executive shall pay to the Employer the amount of any such reduction, or the Employer shall pay to the Executive the amount of any such increase; provided, however, that in no event shall the Executive have any such refund obligation if it is determined by the Employer that to do so would be a violation of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as it may be amended from time to time; and provided, further, that if the Executive has prior thereto paid such amounts to the Internal Revenue Service, such refund shall be due only to the extent that a refund of such amount is received by the Executive; and provided, further, that (i) the fees and expenses of the Auditors (and any other legal and accounting fees) incurred for services rendered in connection with the Auditor's determination of the Parachute Tax or any challenge by the Internal Revenue Service or other taxing authority relating to such determination shall be paid by the Employer and (ii) the Employer shall indemnify and hold the Executive harmless on an after-tax basis for any interest and penalties imposed upon the Executive to the extent that such interest and penalties are related to the Auditor's determination of the Parachute Tax or the Gross-Up Payment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Executive's rights under this Section 6 shall survive the termination of his employment for any reason and the termination or expiration of this Agreement for any reason. Section 7. Restrictions Respecting Confidential Information Executive hereby covenants and agrees that, during his employment and thereafter, Executive will not, under any circumstance, disclose in any way any Confidential Information (as defined below) to any other person other than (i) at the direction of and for the benefit of Employer, (ii) to his attorney or other advisers in connection with Executive's enforcement of his rights hereunder, provided such individuals or entities agree to be bound by the confidentiality restrictions herein contained, and if such Confidential Information is relevant to such enforcement action, to the court or arbitrator, as applicable, subject to a protective order. For the purposes of the foregoing, "Confidential Information" means any information pertaining to the assets, business, creditors, vendors, manufacturers, customers, data, employees, financial 9 condition or affairs, formulae, licenses, methods, operations, procedures, reports, suppliers, systems and technologies of Employer and its affiliates, including (without limitation) the contracts, patents, trade secrets and customer lists developed or otherwise acquired by Employer and its affiliates; provided, however, that Confidential Information shall exclude any information that was, is, or becomes publicly available other than through disclosure by Executive or any other person known to Executive to be subject to confidentiality obligations to Employer. All Confidential Information is and will remain the sole and exclusive property of Employer and its affiliates. Following the termination of his employment, Executive shall return all documents and other tangible items containing Confidential Information to Employer, without retaining any copies, notes or excerpts thereof. Section 8. Proprietary Matters Executive expressly understands and agrees that any and all improvements, inventions, discoveries, processes, or know-how that are generated or conceived by Executive during the Term (collectively, the "Inventions") will be the sole and exclusive property of Employer, and Executive will, whenever requested to do so by Employer (either during the Term or thereafter), execute and assign any and all applications, assignments and/or other instruments and do all things which Employer may deem necessary or appropriate in order to apply for, obtain, maintain, enforce and defend patents, copyrights, trade names or trademarks of the United States or of foreign countries for said Inventions, or in order to assign and convey or otherwise make available to Employer the sole and exclusive right, title, and interest in and to said Inventions, applications, patents, copyrights, trade names or trademarks; provided, however, that the provisions of this Section 8 shall not apply to an Invention that Executive developed entirely on his own time without using Employer's Confidential Information except for those Inventions that either (i) directly and materially relate, at the time of conception or reduction to practice of the invention, to Employer's business, or actual or demonstrably anticipated research or development of Employer, or (ii) directly and materially result from any work performed by Executive for Employer. Executive shall promptly communicate and disclose to Employer all Inventions conceived, developed or made by him during his employment by Employer, whether solely or jointly with others, and whether or not patentable or copyrightable, (a) which relate to any matters or business of the type carried on or being developed by Employer, or (b) which result from or are suggested by any work done by him in the course of his employment by Employer. Executive shall also promptly communicate and disclose to Employer all material other data obtained by him concerning the business or affairs of Employer in the course of his employment by Employer. Section 9. Nonsolicitation/Non-Compete (a) Executive agrees that throughout his employment and for a period of two (2) years following the termination of his employment for any reason, he will not directly or indirectly, own, manage, operate, control, or participate in the ownership, management, operation, or control of, or be connected with, or have any financial interest in, any Competitor. Ownership, for personal investment purposes only, of not to exceed (i) individually, two (2%) percent of the outstanding capital stock of any privately held entity, or (ii) voting stock of any publicly held corporation shall not constitute a violation hereof. For purposes of this Agreement, the term "Competitor" shall mean any individual or entity, present or future, then providing any 10 of the following products or services: (1) a multi-finance source automotive finance portal, (2) electronic contracting for automotive finance or lease transactions, other than at a financing source entity that purchases electronic contracts or leases from automotive dealers, (3) automotive lease, retail and/or balloon payment comparison or desking tools or (4) any other sales or finance and insurance-related products or services for automotive dealerships similar to any products or services offered by Employer or any of its affiliates. (b) Executive agrees that during his employment with Employer and for a period of two (2) years following the termination of his employment for any reason, he will not actively solicit for employment, consulting or any other arrangement any employee of Employer or any of its present or future affiliates (while an affiliate). (c) Executive agrees that during his employment with Employer and for a period of two (2) years following the termination of his employment for any reason, he will not influence or attempt to influence customers of Employer or any of its present or future affiliates, either directly or indirectly, to divert their business to any Competitor. (d) The restrictions contained in this Section 9 are necessary for the protection of the business and goodwill of Employer and are considered by Executive to be reasonable for such purpose. Further, Executive represents that these restrictions will not prevent him from earning a livelihood during the restricted period. (e) This Section 9 shall survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement. Section 10. Equitable Relief Executive acknowledges and agrees that Employer will suffer irreparable damage which cannot be adequately compensated by money damages in the event of a breach, or threatened breach, of any of the terms and provisions of Sections 7, 8 and 9 of this Agreement, and that, in the event of any such breach, or threatened breach, Employer will not have an adequate remedy at law. It is therefore agreed that Employer, in addition to all other such rights, powers, privileges and remedies that it may have, shall be entitled to injunctive relief, specific performance or such other equitable relief as Employer may request to enforce any of those terms and provisions and to enjoin or otherwise restrain any act prohibited thereby, and Executive will not raise and hereby waives any objection or defense that there is an adequate remedy available at law. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 20 of this Agreement, Executive agrees that Employer shall be entitled to seek such injunctive relief, without bond, in a court of competent jurisdiction and Executive hereby consents to the jurisdiction of the state and federal courts of New York for purposes of such an action. Executive agrees that any claim he may have against Employer or any of its affiliates shall not constitute a defense against the issuance of any such equitable relief. The foregoing shall not constitute a waiver of any of Employer's rights, powers, privileges and remedies against or in respect of a breaching party or any other person or thing under this Agreement, or applicable law. 11 Section 11. Notice Any notice, request, demand or other communication hereunder shall be in writing, shall be delivered by hand or sent by registered or certified mail or by reputable overnight delivery service, postage prepaid, to the addressee at the address set forth below (or at such other address as shall be designated hereunder by written notice to the other party hereto) and shall be deemed conclusively to have been given when actually received by the addressee.

Section 1. Term Employer shall continue to employ Executive and Executive agrees to continue such employment, upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, from the Effective Date through and including June 30, 2007 (the "Initial Term"). This Agreement shall renew automatically for successive one year periods (each, a "Renewal Term") unless one party gives notice to the other party, in writing, at least sixty (60) days prior to the expiration of this Agreement (or any renewal) of its desire to terminate the Agreement. The term of this Agreement, including the Initial Term and any Renewal Term, shall be referred to herein as the "Term". Section 2. Executive's Duties (a) Executive shall be President and shall report directly to Employer's Chief Executive Officer or his designee. Executive shall faithfully and diligently perform his duties at the direction of Employer's Chief Executive Officer, or his designee, to the best of Executive's ability. Executive shall (i) devote his best efforts, skill, and ability and full business time and attention to the performance of the services customarily incident to such office, subject to vacations and sick leave as provided herein and in accordance with Employer policy, (ii) carry out his duties in a competent and professional manner; and (iii) generally promote the interests of Employer. Subject to applicable law, Executive shall not knowingly participate in any activity that is detrimental to the interests of Employer, DealerTrack Holdings, Inc. (the "Parent") or any of their affiliates, including, without limitation, any public criticism or disparagement of any type by Executive, through the media or otherwise, of Employer or any of its affiliates or employees, except in connection with the exercise of Executive's rights against Employer or any of its affiliates. (b) Executive agrees to abide by all policies applicable to senior executive officers of Employer promulgated from time to time by Parent or Employer, as applicable, which policies are enforced uniformly and applicable to all similar executives of Employer. (c) Except for such business travel as may be incident to his duties hereunder, Executive shall perform his duties at Employer's offices at the address set forth in the preamble to this Agreement or at such other location as may be approved by Employer. Section 3. Compensation for Executive's Services In consideration of the duties and services to be performed by Executive pursuant to Sections 1 and 2 hereof, Executive shall receive: 1 (a) Salary. Executive shall earn salary (the "Salary") at the annual rate of Three Hundred Seventy Thousand Dollars ($370,000.00) (the "Minimum Salary"), less all applicable federal, state, and local tax withholdings. Such Salary shall be earned and shall be payable in periodic installments in accordance with Employer's payroll practices. During the Term, the Board of Directors of Parent (the "Parent Board") or the Compensation Committee of the Parent Board (the "Compensation Committee") will review the Salary annually and may in its discretion increase the Salary, but may not reduce it during the Term unless Parent institutes salary reductions across the board; provided, however, that in no event shall the Salary be reduced below the Minimum Salary without Executive's written consent. (b) Bonus. For each fiscal year of Parent (each, a "Fiscal Year"), Executive shall be entitled to receive a cash performance bonus (a "Bonus") which shall be based on the achievement of certain performance benchmarks by Parent and/or Employer during such Fiscal Year which shall be determined by the Parent Board. The Parent Board shall review the target Bonus on an annual basis and, in its sole discretion, may increase such target Bonus for any Fiscal Year. The target Bonus shall not be decreased except in connection with company-wide bonus reductions. The target Bonus for any Fiscal Year shall be at least Fifty-Five percent (55%) of the Salary for such Fiscal Year. The Bonus for each Fiscal Year shall be paid, if at all, to Executive on a schedule consistent with Employer's bonus payments to its other similarly situated senior executive officers by no later than two and one half (2 1/2) months following the end of such Fiscal Year. Executive understands and agrees that the Bonus is established in part as an inducement for Executive to remain employed by Employer and except as provided in Section 5(c) of this Agreement, or in the Employer's sole discretion, in the event that Executive's employment is terminated prior to the end of any Fiscal Year during the Term, then Executive shall not receive payment of any Bonus for such year.

Except as otherwise provided herein, the terms of the Stock Options shall be governed by the Stock Incentive Plans. Executive shall be credited with twenty-four (24) months accelerated vesting of his Stock Options upon termination of Executive's employment by: (1) Employer without Cause (as defined below); or (2) Executive for Good Reason (as defined below). Executive shall be credited with thirty-six (36) months accelerated vesting of his Stock Options upon a Change of Control (defined below). Executive shall be credited with full acceleration and vesting of his Stock Options upon the earlier of: (1) the elimination of Executive's position or a termination of Executive's employment, in either event, within twelve (12) months after a Change of Control; (2) a material negative change in Executive's compensation or responsibilities within twelve (12) months after a Change of Control; or (3) the requirement that Executive be based at a location which is more than fifty (50) miles from Employer's offices at the address set forth in the preamble to this Agreement within twelve (12) months after a Change of Control. Anything in the Stock Incentive Plans to the contrary notwithstanding, if Executive's employment is terminated by Executive with Good Reason or by Employer without Cause, or under 2 circumstances described above which would result in certain accelerated vesting of any unvested Stock Options held by Executive, the unexercised portion of any Stock Options held by Executive will not terminate until the twelve (12) month anniversary of the date of termination of Executive's employment. In the event Employer elects to grant equity based awards other than Options, such grants shall, where appropriate, be subject to equivalent acceleration provisions as set forth in this Section 3(c). For purposes hereof, a "Change of Control" shall mean and includes each of the following: (i) A transaction or series of transactions (other than an offering of shares of Parent to the general public through a registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission) whereby any "person" or related "group" of "persons" (as such terms are used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d)(2) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) (other than the Parent, any of its subsidiaries, an employee benefit plan maintained by the Parent or any of its subsidiaries or a "person" that, prior to such transaction, directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with, the Parent) directly or indirectly acquires beneficial ownership (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) of securities of the Employer or Parent possessing more than 50% of the total combined voting power of the Employer's or Parent's securities outstanding immediately after such acquisition; or (ii) During any period of two consecutive years, individuals who, at the beginning of such period, constitute the Parent Board together with any new director(s) (other than a director designated by a person who shall have entered into an agreement with the Company to effect a transaction described in Section 3(c)(i) or Section 3(c)(iii)) whose election by the Parent Board or nomination for election by the Parent's stockholders was approved by a vote of at least two-thirds of the directors then still in office who either were directors at the beginning of the two-year period or whose election or nomination for election was previously so approved, cease for any reason to constitute a majority thereof; or (iii) The consummation by the Employer or Parent (whether directly involving the Employer or Parent or indirectly involving the Employer or Parent through one or more intermediaries) of (x) a merger, consolidation, reorganization, or business combination or (y) a sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Employer's or Parent's assets in any single transaction or series of related transactions or (z) the acquisition of assets or stock of another entity, in each case other than a transaction: (A) Which results in the Employer's or Parent's voting securities outstanding immediately before the transaction continuing to represent (either by remaining outstanding or by being converted into voting securities of the Employer or Parent or the person that, as a result of the transaction, controls, directly or indirectly, the Employer or Parent or owns, directly or indirectly, all or substantially all of the Employer's or Parent's assets or otherwise succeeds to the business of the Employer or Parent (the Employer or Parent or such person, the "Successor Entity")) directly or indirectly, at least a majority of the combined voting power of the Successor Entity's outstanding voting securities immediately after the transaction, and 3 (B) After which no person or group beneficially owns voting securities representing 50% or more of the combined voting power of the Successor Entity; provided, however, that no person or group shall be treated for purposes of this Section 3(c)(iii) as beneficially owning 50% or more of combined voting power of the Successor Entity solely as a result of the voting power held in the Employer or Parent prior to the consummation of the transaction; or (iv) The Employer's or Parent's stockholders approve a liquidation or dissolution of the Employer or Parent. The Parent Board or its designee shall have full and final authority, which shall be exercised in its discretion, to determine conclusively whether a Change of Control of the Employer or Parent has occurred, and the date of the occurrence of such Change of Control and any incidental matters relating thereto. (d) Benefits. Employer shall provide Executive with the right to participate in and receive benefits from all life, accident, disability, medical and pension plans, and all similar benefits as are from time to time in effect and are generally made available to similar situated senior executive officers of Employer. The amount and extent of benefits to which Executive is entitled shall be governed by the specific benefit plan, as it may be amended from time to time. (e) Expenses. Employer shall promptly reimburse Executive for reasonable expenses for cellular telephone usage, entertainment, travel, meals, lodging and similar items incurred in the conduct of Employer's business. Such expenses shall be reimbursed in accordance with Employer's expense reimbursement policies and guidelines. (f) Vacation; Sick Leave. During the Term, Executive shall be entitled to four weeks (4) weeks vacation per year, paid holidays, sick leave, and similar benefits, to be earned and used in accordance with Employer's policy and procedure for other similarly situated senior executive officers. (g) Modification. Employer reserves the right to modify, suspend or discontinue any and all of the above plans, practices, policies and programs referenced in Sections 3(d) and (e) at any time in its discretion without recourse by Executive so long as such action is taken generally with respect to other similarly situated senior executive officers. Any such modification, suspension or discontinuance of the plans, practices and policies referenced in Section 3(e) will not apply to otherwise reimbursable expenses incurred by Executive prior to any such modification, suspension or discontinuance. Section 4. Termination of Employment (a) Resignation. Executive may voluntarily terminate his employment with Employer, at any time, with or without Good Reason, upon written notice to Employer. (b) Termination. Employer may terminate Executive's employment at any time, with or without Cause, upon written notice to Executive. 4 (c) Death or Disability. Executive's employment shall terminate immediately upon Executive's death. In the event Employer, in good faith, determines that Executive is unable to perform the functions of his position due to a Disability (as defined below), it may notify Executive in writing of its intention to terminate Executive's employment and Executive's employment with Employer shall terminate effective on the thirtieth (30th) day after receipt of such notice by Executive. For the purposes of this Agreement, "Disability" shall mean a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits a major life activity of Executive and renders Executive unable to perform the essential functions of his position even with reasonable accommodation (that does not impose an undue hardship on Employer), and which has lasted at least (i) sixty (60) consecutive days, (ii) the balance of Executive's entitlement to leave, if any, under the Family and Medical Leave Act, or other similar statute or (iii) the balance of any election period under the Employer's long term disability program (without regard to whether Executive is awarded benefits under such program), whichever is longer. (d) Cause. Employer may immediately terminate Executive's employment for "Cause" by giving written notice to Executive. For purposes of this Agreement, "Cause" shall mean: (1) Executive's commission of an act of fraud or embezzlement upon Employer or any of its affiliates; or (2) Executive's commission of any willful act intended to injure the reputation, business, or any business relationship of Employer or any of its affiliates; or (3) Executive is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to have committed a felony; or (4) the refusal or failure of Executive to perform Executive's duties with Employer in a competent and professional manner that is not cured by Executive within ten (10) business days after a written demand therefor is delivered to Executive by the Board of Directors of Employer ("Board") which specifically identifies the manner in which the Board believes that Executive has not substantially performed Executive's duties; provided, further, however, that if the Board, in good faith, determines that the refusal or failure by Executive is egregious in nature or is not susceptible of cure, then no cure period shall be required hereunder; or (5) the refusal or failure of Executive to comply with any of his material obligations under this Agreement (including any exhibit hereto) that is not cured by Executive within ten (10) business days after a written demand therefor is delivered to Executive by the Board which specifically identifies the manner in which the Board believes Executive has materially breached this Agreement; provided, further, however, that if the Board, in good faith, 5 determines that the refusal or failure by Executive is egregious in nature or is not susceptible of cure, then no cure period shall be required hereunder. (e) Good Reason. Executive may terminate his employment for "Good Reason," by delivering written notice of such termination ("Employer Default Notice") to Employer within sixty (60) days of the occurrence of any of the following events, each of which shall constitute Good Reason: (i) Employer's material breach of any provision of this Agreement, the Stock Incentive Plans or any agreements thereunder, which has not been cured within the allotted time; (ii) a material reduction of Executive's then current title, status, authority, responsibility or duties or the assignment to Executive of any duties materially inconsistent with Executive's then current position; (iii) any material reduction in Executive's salary or benefits; (iv) the failure of any successor entity to assume the terms of this Agreement upon any Change of Control; (v) the relocation of Executive to a facility or location more than fifty (50) miles from Employer's principal offices at the address set forth in the preamble to this Agreement; or (vi) the failure of Employer to renew this Agreement upon the expiration of the Initial Term or any Renewal Term. The Employer Default Notice shall specify the reason for Executive's belief that an event constituting Good Reason has occurred. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any material breach of this Agreement by Employer, or other event constituting Good Reason, shall not constitute Good Reason if any such breach or other event is cured or corrected by Employer within thirty (30) days following delivery to Employer of the Employer Default Notice. (f) Continuing Obligations. Executive acknowledges and agrees that any termination under this Section 4 is not intended, and shall not be deemed or construed, to affect in any way any of Executive's covenants and obligations contained in Sections 6, 7, and 8 hereof, which shall continue in full force and effect beyond such termination for any reason. Section 5. Termination Obligations (a) Resignation. If Executive's employment is terminated voluntarily by Executive without Good Reason, Executive's employment shall terminate without further obligations to Executive other than for payment of the sum of any unpaid Salary determined by the Parent Board and reimbursable expenses and vacation accrued and owing to Executive prior to the termination. The sum of such amounts shall hereinafter be referred to as the "Accrued Obligations," which shall be paid to Executive or Executive's estate or beneficiary within thirty (30) days of the date of termination. If Executive voluntarily terminates his employment without Good Reason and within (30) days of such termination, Employer determines that it would have had Cause to terminate Executive pursuant to Section 4(d), Executive shall be deemed to have been terminated for Cause and the terms of Section 5(b) shall apply. (b) Cause. If Executive's employment is terminated by Employer for Cause, this Agreement shall terminate without further obligations to Executive other than for the timely payment of Accrued Obligations. If it is subsequently determined by an arbitrator, pursuant to Section 19 hereof, that Employer did not have Cause for termination, then Employer's decision to terminate shall be deemed to have been made without Cause and the terms of Section 5(c) shall apply. 6 (c) By Employer Other than for Cause or Death or Disability; By Executive for Good Reason. (1) If (A) Employer terminates Executive's employment for a reason other than Cause, or due to Executive's death or Disability, or (B) Executive terminates his employment for Good Reason, Employer shall have no further obligations to Executive other than for (i) the payment of Accrued Obligations, (ii) severance pay in an amount equal to twenty-four (24) months of Salary to be paid in equal installments in accordance with Employer's payroll practices during the period beginning on the Severance Commencement Date (as defined below) and ending on the 24-month anniversary of the date of the Executive's termination of employment (the "Date of Termination"); provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Severance Commencement Date is the six-month anniversary of the Date of Termination, then Employer shall, as of the six-month anniversary of the Date of Termination, pay to the Executive a lump-sum amount equal to 25% of the Severance Amount (with the other 75% of the Severance Amount payable to the Executive in equal monthly installments during the period beginning on the six-month anniversary of the Date of Termination and ending on the 24-month anniversary thereof), and (iii) a pro rata bonus calculated based on multiplying the percentage of the year Executive worked for Employer during the year of his termination by the Bonus received by Executive during the preceding year and (iv) the reimbursement of premiums otherwise payable by Executive pursuant to COBRA for a period of up to 12 months, or until Executive no longer is eligible for COBRA continuation coverage, whichever is earlier. For purposes of this Section 5, "Severance Commencement Date" shall mean (x) if any stock of Parent or its affiliates is publicly traded on an established securities market or otherwise and the Parent Board (or its delegate) determines in its discretion that as of the Date of Termination the Executive is a "key employee" (within the meaning of Section 416(i) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code")), as interpreted in accordance with Section 409A of the Code and Department of Treasury regulations and other interpretive guidance issued thereunder) and that Section 409A of the Code applies with respect to a payment to the Executive pursuant to Section 5(c)(1)(ii), the six-month anniversary of the Date of Termination; or (y) if the Parent Board (or its delegate) determines in its discretion that the Executive is not such a "key employee" as of the Date of Termination (or that Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code does not apply with respect to a payment to the Executive pursuant to Section 5(c)(1)(ii)), the Date of Termination. The payments described in this Section 5(c)(1), except for those set forth in Section 5(c)(1)(ii) and (iv), shall be made within thirty (30) days of the Date of Termination. (2) If Executive terminates his employment for Good Reason and it is subsequently determined by an arbitrator, pursuant to Section 20 hereof, that Executive did not have Good Reason for termination, then Executive's decision to terminate for Good Reason shall be deemed to have been a voluntary resignation, the terms of Section 5(a) shall apply, and all monies paid to Executive pursuant to this Section 5(c)(1), except for those monies paid pursuant to Section 5(c)(1)(i), shall be immediately returned to Employer. (3) The amounts payable pursuant to Section 5(c)(1) shall be the only amounts Executive shall receive for termination in accordance with this Section 5(c); provided, however, that no amounts shall be payable pursuant to this section 5(c) on or following the date Executive breaches any of Sections 7, 8 or 9 of this Agreement. 7 (d) Mitigation. In the event Executive's employment with Employer is terminated pursuant to this Section 5, Executive shall be obligated to mitigate any severance payments due to Executive in accordance with Section 5(c)(1)(ii). Executive shall be required to notify Employer, in writing, within seven (7) days of obtaining subsequent employment by an unrelated party, which shall include, without limitation, self-employment, consulting or other arrangement, but not passive investment activities. In the event Executive obtains other employment during any severance payout period described in Section 5(c)(1)(ii), the severance payments due to Executive thereunder shall be reduced to an amount equal to the lesser of (i) fifty (50%) percent of Executive's Salary immediately prior to the Date of Termination or (ii) fifty (50%) percent of Executive's base compensation received for subsequent employment, self-employment, consulting or other arrangement, commencing on the date Executive commences providing services in his new capacity. Nothing herein shall require Executive to seek employment, self-employment, consulting or other arrangement. (e) Release. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no severance payments required hereunder shall be made by Employer until such time as Executive shall execute a general release for the benefit of Employer and its affiliates in a form satisfactory to Employer. Such general release shall not apply to (i) Executive's rights under any Stock Incentive Plan award agreements or (ii) Executive's rights, as applicable, to indemnification under Employer's or Parent's charter or bylaws, any indemnification agreement or applicable law. (f) Equity Compensation Awards. Except as expressly provided herein, except for the provisions of Section 3(c) of this Agreement, the terms of the Stock Incentive Plans and any related award agreements and/or notice of grant shall govern the termination, vesting, and/or exercise of Executive's stock options or other equity awards upon the termination of Executive's employment for any reason. (g) Exclusive Remedy. Executive agrees that the payments set forth in this Agreement shall constitute the exclusive and sole remedy for any termination of Executive's employment and Executive covenants not to assert or pursue any other remedies, at law or in equity, with respect to this Agreement. (h) Termination of Executive's Office. Following the termination of Executive's employment for any reason, Executive shall hold no further office or position with Employer or any of its affiliates. Section 6. Parachute Payments. (a) If it is determined by a nationally recognized United States public accounting firm selected by the Employer and approved in writing by the Executive (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld) (the "Auditors") that any payment or benefit made or provided to the Executive in connection with this Agreement or otherwise (including without limitation any Stock Option or other equity based award vesting) (collectively, a "Payment"), would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (the "Parachute Tax"), then the Employer shall pay to the Executive, prior to the time the Parachute Tax is payable with respect to such Payment, an additional payment (a "Gross-Up Payment") in an amount such that, 8 after payment by the Executive of all taxes (including any Parachute Tax) imposed upon the Gross-Up Payment, the Executive retains an amount of the Gross-Up Payment equal to the Parachute Tax imposed upon the Payment. The amount of any Gross-Up Payment shall be determined by the Auditors, subject to adjustment, as necessary, as a result of any Internal Revenue Service position. For purposes of making the calculations required by this Agreement, the Auditors may make reasonable assumptions and approximations concerning applicable taxes and may rely on reasonable, good faith interpretations concerning the application of Sections 280G and 4999 of the Code, provided that the Auditors' determinations must be made with substantial authority (within the meaning of Section 6662 of the Code). (b) The federal tax returns filed by the Executive (and any filing made by a consolidated tax group which includes the Employer) shall be prepared and filed on a basis consistent with the determination of the Auditors with respect to the Parachute Tax payable by the Executive. The Executive shall make proper payment of the amount of any Parachute Tax, and at the request of the Employer, provide to the Employer true and correct copies (with any amendments) of his federal income tax return as filed with the Internal Revenue Service, and such other documents reasonably requested by the Employer, evidencing such payment. If, after the Employer's payment to the Executive of the Gross-Up Payment, the Auditors determine in good faith that the amount of the Gross-Up Payment should be reduced or increased, or such determination is made by the Internal Revenue Service, then within ten (10) business days of such determination, the Executive shall pay to the Employer the amount of any such reduction, or the Employer shall pay to the Executive the amount of any such increase; provided, however, that in no event shall the Executive have any such refund obligation if it is determined by the Employer that to do so would be a violation of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as it may be amended from time to time; and provided, further, that if the Executive has prior thereto paid such amounts to the Internal Revenue Service, such refund shall be due only to the extent that a refund of such amount is received by the Executive; and provided, further, that (i) the fees and expenses of the Auditors (and any other legal and accounting fees) incurred for services rendered in connection with the Auditor's determination of the Parachute Tax or any challenge by the Internal Revenue Service or other taxing authority relating to such determination shall be paid by the Employer and (ii) the Employer shall indemnify and hold the Executive harmless on an after-tax basis for any interest and penalties imposed upon the Executive to the extent that such interest and penalties are related to the Auditor's determination of the Parachute Tax or the Gross-Up Payment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Executive's rights under this Section 6 shall survive the termination of his employment for any reason and the termination or expiration of this Agreement for any reason. Section 7. Restrictions Respecting Confidential Information Executive hereby covenants and agrees that, during his employment and thereafter, Executive will not, under any circumstance, disclose in any way any Confidential Information (as defined below) to any other person other than (i) at the direction of and for the benefit of Employer, (ii) to his attorney or other advisers in connection with Executive's enforcement of his rights hereunder, provided such individuals or entities agree to be bound by the confidentiality restrictions herein contained, and if such Confidential Information is relevant to such enforcement action, to the court or arbitrator, as applicable, subject to a protective order. For the purposes of the foregoing, "Confidential Information" means any information pertaining 9 to the assets, business, creditors, vendors, manufacturers, customers, data, employees, financial condition or affairs, formulae, licenses, methods, operations, procedures, reports, suppliers, systems and technologies of Employer and its affiliates, including (without limitation) the contracts, patents, trade secrets and customer lists developed or otherwise acquired by Employer and its affiliates; provided, however, that Confidential Information shall exclude any information that was, is, or becomes publicly available other than through disclosure by Executive or any other person known to Executive to be subject to confidentiality obligations to Employer. All Confidential Information is and will remain the sole and exclusive property of Employer and its affiliates. Following the termination of his employment, Executive shall return all documents and other tangible items containing Confidential Information to Employer, without retaining any copies, notes or excerpts thereof. Section 8. Proprietary Matters Executive expressly understands and agrees that any and all improvements, inventions, discoveries, processes, or know-how that are generated or conceived by Executive during the Term (collectively, the "Inventions") will be the sole and exclusive property of Employer, and Executive will, whenever requested to do so by Employer (either during the Term or thereafter), execute and assign any and all applications, assignments and/or other instruments and do all things which Employer may deem necessary or appropriate in order to apply for, obtain, maintain, enforce and defend patents, copyrights, trade names or trademarks of the United States or of foreign countries for said Inventions, or in order to assign and convey or otherwise make available to Employer the sole and exclusive right, title, and interest in and to said Inventions, applications, patents, copyrights, trade names or trademarks; provided, however, that the provisions of this Section 8 shall not apply to an Invention that Executive developed entirely on his own time without using Employer's Confidential Information except for those Inventions that either (i) directly and materially relate, at the time of conception or reduction to practice of the invention, to Employer's business, or actual or demonstrably anticipated research or development of Employer, or (ii) directly and materially result from any work performed by Executive for Employer. Executive shall promptly communicate and disclose to Employer all Inventions conceived, developed or made by him during his employment by Employer, whether solely or jointly with others, and whether or not patentable or copyrightable, (a) which relate to any matters or business of the type carried on or being developed by Employer, or (b) which result from or are suggested by any work done by him in the course of his employment by Employer. Executive shall also promptly communicate and disclose to Employer all material other data obtained by him concerning the business or affairs of Employer in the course of his employment by Employer. Section 9. Nonsolicitation/Non-Compete (a) Executive agrees that throughout his employment and for a period of two (2) years following the termination of his employment for any reason, he will not directly or indirectly, own, manage, operate, control, or participate in the ownership, management, operation, or control of, or be connected with, or have any financial interest in, any Competitor. Ownership, for personal investment purposes only, of not to exceed (i) individually, two (2%) percent of the outstanding capital stock of any privately held entity, or (ii) voting stock of any publicly held corporation shall not constitute a violation hereof. For purposes of this Agreement, 10 the term "Competitor" shall mean any individual or entity, present or future, then providing any of the following products or services: (1) a multi-finance source automotive finance portal, (2) electronic contracting for automotive finance or lease transactions, other than at a financing source entity that purchases electronic contracts or leases from automotive dealers, (3) automotive lease, retail and/or balloon payment comparison or desking tools or (4) any other sales or finance and insurance-related products or services for automotive dealerships similar to any products or services offered by Employer or any of its affiliates. (b) Executive agrees that during his employment with Employer and for a period of two (2) years following the termination of his employment for any reason, he will not actively solicit for employment, consulting or any other arrangement any employee of Employer or any of its present or future affiliates (while an affiliate). (c) Executive agrees that during his employment with Employer and for a period of two (2) years following the termination of his employment for any reason, he will not influence or attempt to influence customers of Employer or any of its present or future affiliates, either directly or indirectly, to divert their business to any Competitor. (d) The restrictions contained in this Section 9 are necessary for the protection of the business and goodwill of Employer and are considered by Executive to be reasonable for such purpose. Further, Executive represents that these restrictions will not prevent him from earning a livelihood during the restricted period. (e) This Section 9 shall survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement. Section 10. Equitable Relief Executive acknowledges and agrees that Employer will suffer irreparable damage which cannot be adequately compensated by money damages in the event of a breach, or threatened breach, of any of the terms and provisions of Sections 7, 8 and 9 of this Agreement, and that, in the event of any such breach, or threatened breach, Employer will not have an adequate remedy at law. It is therefore agreed that Employer, in addition to all other such rights, powers, privileges and remedies that it may have, shall be entitled to injunctive relief, specific performance or such other equitable relief as Employer may request to enforce any of those terms and provisions and to enjoin or otherwise restrain any act prohibited thereby, and Executive will not raise and hereby waives any objection or defense that there is an adequate remedy available at law. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 20 of this Agreement, Executive agrees that Employer shall be entitled to seek such injunctive relief, without bond, in a court of competent jurisdiction and Executive hereby consents to the jurisdiction of the state and federal courts of New York for purposes of such an action. Executive agrees that any claim he may have against Employer or any of its affiliates shall not constitute a defense against the issuance of any such equitable relief. The foregoing shall not constitute a waiver of any of Employer's rights, powers, privileges and remedies against or in respect of a breaching party or any other person or thing under this Agreement, or applicable law. 11 Section 11.

EXECUTIVE: __________________________________________ Vincent Passione EMPLOYER: DEALERTRACK, INC. By: ______________________________________ Name: Mark F. O'Neil Title: Chairman and Chief Executive Officer 16 EX-10.20 15 y10748exv10w20.txt 2001 STOCK OPTION PLAN EXHIBIT 10.20 DEALERTRACK HOLDINGS, INC. 2001 STOCK OPTION PLAN (As Adopted by the Board of Directors on August 10, 2001 and Approved by the Stockholders on August 10, 2001) 1. PURPOSE OF THIS PLAN. The purpose of this DEALERTRACK HOLDINGS, INC. 2001 STOCK OPTION PLAN (the "Plan") is (a) to further the growth and success of DEALERTRACK HOLDINGS, INC., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), by enabling directors, officers and employees of, advisors to, and independent consultants or independent contractors to, the Company or its Subsidiaries to acquire shares of the Common Stock, par value $.01 per share, of the Company (the "Common Stock"), thereby increasing their personal interest in such growth and success, and (b) to provide a means of rewarding outstanding performance by such persons to the Company and its Subsidiaries. Options granted under this Plan may be either "incentive stock options" ("ISOs"), intended to qualify as such under the provisions of Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), or non-qualified stock options ("NSOs"). Unless the context otherwise requires, any ISO or NSO shall hereinafter be referred to as an "Option." For purposes of this Plan, the term "Subsidiary" means "Subsidiary Corporation" as defined in Section 424(f) of the Code. 2. ADMINISTRATION OF THIS PLAN. (a) COMPENSATION COMMITTEE. This Plan shall be administered by the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board") or the Compensation Committee of the Board (the "Committee") consisting of such number of persons appointed to such Committee from time to time by the Board; provided, however, that following the date on which Common Stock is registered under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "1934 Act"), in order to permit officers and directors of the Company to be exempt from the provisions of Section 16(b) of the 1934 Act with respect to transactions pursuant to this Plan, each person appointed to the Committee, at the effective date of his or her appointment to the Committee, shall, to the extent such a person exists, be a "Non-Employee Director" within the meaning of Rule 16b-3 ("Rule 16b-3") promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") under the 1934 Act. The members of the Committee may be removed at any time either with or without cause by the Board. Any vacancy on the Committee, whether due to action of the Board or any other cause, shall be filled by the Board. The term "Committee" shall, for all purposes of this Plan, other than this Section 2, be deemed to refer to the Board if the Board is administering this Plan. (b) PROCEDURES. If this Plan is administered by the Committee, the Committee shall from time to time select a Chairman from among the members of the Committee. The Committee shall adopt such rules and regulations as it shall deem appropriate concerning the holding of meetings and the administration of this Plan. A majority of the entire Committee shall constitute a quorum and the actions of a majority of the members of the Committee present at a meeting at which a quorum is present, or actions approved in writing by -1- all of the members of the Committee (but only to the extent permitted by applicable law and the applicable rules and regulations of the principal national securities exchange or national market system (if any) on which the Common Stock is a class of securities then listed or admitted for trading), shall be the actions of the Committee; provided, however, that if the Committee consists of only two members, both shall be required to constitute a quorum and to act at a meeting or to approve actions in writing. (c) INTERPRETATION. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Plan, the Committee shall have all powers with respect to the administration of this Plan, including, without limitation, full power and authority to (i) interpret the provisions of this Plan, any Option Agreement (as defined in Section 5(b)) and any other agreement or document executed pursuant to this Plan, (ii) resolve all questions arising under this Plan, any Option Agreement and any other such agreement or plan, (iii) correct any defect, supply any omission or reconcile any inconsistency in or among the Plan, any Option or any Option Agreement, (iv) grant waivers of Plan or Option conditions and (v) make all other determinations necessary or advisable for the administration of this Plan. All decisions of the Board or the Committee, as the case may be, shall be conclusive and binding on all participants in this Plan. 3. SHARES OF STOCK SUBJECT TO THE PLAN. (a) NUMBER OF AVAILABLE SHARES. Subject to the provisions of Section 9 (relating to adjustments upon changes in capital structure and other corporate transactions) and the further provisions of this Section 3(a), the number of shares of Common Stock available at any one time for issuance upon the exercise of Options granted under this Plan shall not exceed 8,510,455 shares of Common Stock (before making any adjustment under this Plan or otherwise for any stock split, stock dividend or similar recapitalization event occurring on or after the Effective Date (as defined in Section 11)). If, and to the extent that, (i) Options granted under this Plan terminate, expire or are canceled without having been fully exercised, new Options may be granted under this Plan for the shares of Common Stock constituting the unexercised portion of such terminated, expired or canceled Options, and (ii) any shares of Common Stock issued upon the exercise of Options granted under this Plan are forfeited to or repurchased by the Company, new Options may be granted under this Plan for up to an equivalent number of shares of Common Stock (but, in the case of any such repurchased share, only if such share is repurchased for consideration not greater than the purchase price for such share specified in the applicable Option). (b) CHARACTER OF SHARES. The shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of an Option granted under this Plan shall be (i) authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock, (ii) shares of Common Stock held in the Company's treasury or (iii) a combination of the foregoing. (c) RESERVATION OF SHARES. The number of shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance under this Plan shall at no time be less than the maximum number of shares of Common Stock which may be purchased at any time pursuant to outstanding Options. -2- 4. ELIGIBILITY. (a) GENERAL. Options may be granted under this Plan only to persons who are directors, officers or employees of, advisors to, or independent consultants or independent contractors to, the Company or its Subsidiaries. Options granted to employees (including officers or directors who are employees) of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall be, in the discretion of the Committee, either ISOs or NSOs, and Options granted to directors or officers of, advisors to, or independent consultants or independent contractors to, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries who are not employees of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall be NSOs. Persons who are not employees of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall be ineligible for grants of ISOs. (b) EXCEPTIONS. Anything contained in Section 4(a) to the contrary notwithstanding, no Option may be granted under this Plan to any employee who owns, directly or indirectly (within the meaning of Sections 422(b)(6) and 424(d) of the Code), stock possessing more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (a "10% Stockholder"), unless (i) the Option Price (as defined in Section 6(a)) of the shares of Common Stock subject to such Option is fixed at not less than 110% of the Fair Market Value (as determined in accordance with Section 6(b)) on the date of grant of such Option and (ii) if the Option is intended to be an ISO, such Option by its terms is not exercisable after the expiration of five years from the date it is granted. 5. GRANT OF OPTIONS. (a) GENERAL. Options may be granted under this Plan at any time and from time to time on or prior to the tenth anniversary of the Effective Date. Subject to the provisions of this Plan, the Committee shall have plenary authority and discretion, to determine: (i) the persons (from among the classes of persons eligible to receive Options under this Plan) to whom Options shall be granted (the "Optionees"); (ii) the form and terms of Options; (iii) whether Options will be granted singly, in combination with, in tandem with, in replacement of, or as alternatives to, other Options under this Plan or any other incentive or compensation plan of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company; (iv) the time or times at which Options shall be granted; (v) the number of shares of Common Stock subject to each Option; (vi) the Option Price of the shares of Common Stock subject to each Option; and -3- (vii) the time or times after grant when each Option and the shares of Common Stock covered thereby shall become vested and/or exercisable and the duration of the exercise and/or vesting periods. (b) OPTION AGREEMENTS. Each Option granted under this Plan shall be designated by the Committee as an ISO or an NSO and shall be subject to the terms and conditions applicable to ISOs and/or NSOs (as the case may be) set forth in this Plan. In addition, each Option shall be evidenced by a written agreement (each, an "Option Agreement"), containing such terms and conditions and in such form, not inconsistent with this Plan, as the Committee shall, in its discretion, provide. Each Option Agreement shall be executed by the Company and the Optionee. In the event of a conflict between any provision of the Option Agreement and the Plan, the provisions of the Plan shall control. (c) NO EVIDENCE OF EMPLOYMENT OR SERVICE. Nothing contained in this Plan or in any Option Agreement shall confer upon any Optionee any right with respect to the continuation of his or her employment by, or services to, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or interfere in any way with the right of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (subject to the terms of any separate agreement to the contrary) at any time to terminate such employment or service or to increase or decrease the compensation of the Optionee from the rate in existence at the time of the grant of an Option to such Optionee. (d) DATE OF GRANT. The date of grant of an Option under this Plan shall be the date specified by the Committee for the grant of such option; provided, however, that in the case of an ISO, the date of grant shall in no event be earlier than the date as of which the Optionee becomes an employee of the Company or one of its Subsidiaries. (e) EXCHANGE AND BUYOUT OF OPTIONS. The Committee may, at any time or from time to time, authorize the grant of new Options under this Plan in exchange for the surrender and cancellation of any or all outstanding Options. The Committee may at any time buy from an Optionee an Option previously granted with payment in cash, Securities of the Company or other consideration, based on such terms and conditions as the Company (acting through the Committee) and the Optionee may agree. (f) OPTIONS AND RIGHTS IN SUBSTITUTION FOR STOCK OPTIONS GRANTED BY OTHER CORPORATIONS. Options may be granted to eligible persons under the Plan in substitution for employee stock options granted by other entities to persons who are or become eligible persons in respect of the Company, in connection with a distribution, merger or reorganization by or with the granting entity or an affiliated entity, or the acquisition by the Company, directly or indirectly, of all or a substantial part of the stock or assets of the other entity." (g) LIMITATIONS ON GRANT AND TERMS OF INCENTIVE STOCK OPTIONS. (i) $100,000 Limit. To the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value of stock with respect to which ISOs first become exercisable by an Optionee in any calendar year exceeds $100,000, taking into account ISOs under this Plan and stock subject to incentive stock options under all other plans of the Company or any parent corporation, such options will be treated as NSOs. For this purpose, the "Fair Market -4- Value" of the stock subject to options will be determined as of the date the options were awarded. In reducing the number of options treated as incentive stock options to meet the $100,000 limit, the most recently granted options will be reduced (recharacterized as NSOs) first. To the extent a reduction of simultaneously granted options is necessary to meet the $100,000 limit, the Committee may, in the manner and to the extent permitted by law, designate which shares of Common Stock are to be treated as shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of an ISO. (ii) Other Code Limits. ISOs may only be granted to employees of the Company or a Subsidiary that satisfy the other eligibility requirements of the Code. Any Option Agreement relating to an ISO will contain or be deemed to contain such other terms and conditions as from time to time are required in order that the Option be an "incentive stock option" as that term is defined in Section 422 of the Code. (iii) Disqualifying Dispositions. If Optioned Shares acquired by exercise of an ISO granted under this Plan are disposed of within two years following the date of grant of the ISO or one year following the transfer of the Optioned Shares by the Company to the Optionee upon the exercise of such ISO (a "Disqualifying Disposition"), the Optionee shall, immediately prior to such Disqualifying Disposition, notify the Company in writing of the date and terms of such Disqualifying Disposition and provide such other information regarding the Disqualifying Disposition as the Company may reasonably require. 6. OPTION PRICE. (a) GENERAL. Subject to Section 9, the price (the "Option Price") at which each share of Common Stock subject to an Option granted under this Plan may be purchased shall be determined by the Committee at the time the Option is granted, which purchase price will be set forth in the applicable Option Agreement. In no case will the Option Price be less than the greater of: (i) the par value of the Common Stock; or (ii) (A) in the case of an NSO granted to an individual other than a 10% Stockholder described in Section 4(b), 85% of Fair Market Value (as determined in accordance with Section 6(b)) of the Common Stock on the date of grant; (B) in the case of an ISO granted to an individual other than a 10% Stockholder described in Section 4(b), 100% of the Fair Market Value (as determined in accordance with Section 6(b)) of the Common Stock in the date of grant; or (C) in the case of an Option (ISO or NSO) granted to a 10% Stockholder described in 4(b), 110% of the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the date of grant. -5- (b) DETERMINATION OF FAIR MARKET VALUE. Subject to the requirements of Section 422 of the Code, for purposes of this Plan, the "Fair Market Value" of a share of Common Stock, as of any date, shall be determined as follows: (i) if the Common Stock is a class of securities then listed or admitted to trading on any national securities exchange or traded on any national market system (including, but not limited to, The Nasdaq National Market), the closing sale price of the Common Stock on such date or, if no such sale takes place on such date, the average of the closing bid and ask prices for Common Stock on such date, in each case as officially reported on the principal national securities exchange or national market system on which such securities are then listed, admitted to trading or traded; (ii) if the Common Stock is not a class of securities then listed or admitted to trading on any national securities exchange or traded on any national market system, or else if no closing sale price or closing bid and ask prices thereof are then so reported by any such exchange or system, the average of the reported closing bid and ask prices for the Common Stock in the over-the-counter market on such date as shown by the NASD automated quotation system, or if the Common Stock is not a class of securities then quoted on such system, as published by the National Quotation Bureau, Incorporated or any similar successor organization, and in either case as reported by any member firm of the New York Stock Exchange selected by the Company; or (iii) in the absence of an established market for the Common Stock of the type described in clauses (i) and (ii) above, the fair value of such share of Common Stock on such date as determined by the Board in good faith on a fully diluted basis and assuming the conversion of all securities then outstanding that are convertible into Common Stock, and in a manner consistent with Section 260.140.50 of Title 10 of the California Code of Regulations. (c) REPRICING OF NSOs. Subsequent to the date of grant of any NSO, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, subject to the consent of the Optionee to whom such NSO was granted, establish a new Option Price for such NSO so as to increase or decrease the Option Price of such NSO. 7. EXERCISABILITY OF OPTIONS. (a) COMMITTEE DETERMINATION. (i) Each Option and the shares of Common Stock covered thereby granted under this Plan shall be vested and/or exercisable at such time or times, or upon the occurrence of such event or events, and for such number of shares of Common Stock subject to such Option or in such portions or amounts thereof, as shall be determined by the Committee and set forth in the Option Agreement evidencing such Option; provided, however, to the extent required to satisfy applicable securities laws and subject to Section 7(b), no Option (except an Option granted to an officer, director, or consultant of the Company) shall vest and become exercisable at a rate of less than 20% per year over five years after the date the Option is granted. Subject to the foregoing minimum vesting -6- requirements, if the Company files a registration statement on Form S-1 with the SEC under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act") for the initial public offering of Common Stock (the "IPO"), no Option granted under this Plan shall be exercisable as to any of the shares of Common Stock covered thereby during the 180-day period immediately following the effective date of such registration statement (the "Lock-up Period"); and, provided further, however, that unless the Committee expressly otherwise provides, if an Option by its terms is to expire during the Lock-up Period, the expiration date of such Option shall be automatically extended for a period equal in duration to that of the period from the commencement date of the Lock-up Period up to (and including) the expiration date of such Lock-up Period, but in no event shall any such extension extend the expiration date of the Option beyond the maximum 10 year term (five years in the case of ISOs granted to 10% Stockholders described in 4(b)). (ii) Subject to the provisions of clause (i) above, if an Option, or the shares of Common Stock covered thereby, are not at the time of grant of such Option immediately exercisable and/or fully vested, the Committee may (A) in the Option Agreement evidencing such Option, provide for the acceleration of the exercise or vesting date(s) of such Option, the acceleration of the vesting of all or a portion of the shares of Common Stock covered thereby, or the continuation of the vesting (whether before, on or after the date of Termination of the Optionee to whom such Option is granted) of all or a portion of such Option and/or the shares of Common Stock covered thereby, upon the occurrence of specified events and/or (B) at any time prior to the complete termination of such Option, accelerate the exercise or vesting date(s) of such Option, accelerate the vesting of all or a portion of the shares of Common Stock covered thereby, or continue the vesting (whether before, on or after the date of Termination of the Optionee to whom such Option is granted) of all or a portion of such Option and/or the shares of Common Stock covered thereby. (iii) The Committee may, in its discretion, amend any term or condition of an outstanding Option, provided (A) such term or condition as amended is permitted by this Plan, (B) any such amendment shall be made only with the consent of the Optionee to whom the Option was granted, or in the event of the death of the Optionee, the Optionee's Representatives (as defined in Section 10(d) below), if the amendment is materially adverse to the Optionee, and (C) any such amendment of any ISO shall be made only after the Committee, after consulting with counsel for the Company, determines whether such amendment would constitute a "modification" (as that term is defined in Section 424(h) of the Code) of any Option which is an ISO. (b) AUTOMATIC TERMINATION OF OPTION. Except as otherwise determined by the Committee and set forth in the Option Agreement, the unexercised portion of any Option granted under this Plan shall automatically terminate and shall become null and void and be of no further force or effect upon the first to occur of the following: (i) the 10-year anniversary of the date on which such Option is granted or, in the case of any ISO that is granted to a 10% Stockholder described in Section 4(b), the five-year anniversary of the date on which such Option is granted; -7- (ii) the three-month anniversary of the date on which the Optionee to whom such Option was granted ceases to be a director, officer or employee of, advisor to, or independent consultant or independent contractor to, the Company or any Subsidiary thereof for any reason or for no reason (such event, a "Termination"), unless such Termination (x) occurs by reason of such Optionee's death or Disability (as defined below) or (y) is for Cause (as defined below); provided, however, that if such Optionee shall die after the date of Termination to which this Section 7(b)(ii) is applicable but before the three-month anniversary of such Optionee's date of Termination, the unexercised portion of such Option shall automatically terminate and become null and void and be of no further force or effect upon the 12-month anniversary of such date of Termination; (iii) the 12-month anniversary of the date of Termination of the Optionee to whom such Option was granted, if such Termination occurs by reason of such Optionee's (x) death or (y) Disability (as defined below); provided however, that if a Disability is not a "disability" within the meaning of Section 22(e)(3) of the Code and such Optionee's Option is an ISO, such Option shall cease to be an ISO and thereafter be treated as a NSO on the date three months and one day after the Optionee's date of Termination; (iv) the date of the Termination of the Optionee to whom such Option was granted, if such Termination is for Cause (as defined below) (a "Termination for Cause"); (v) on the effective date of a Corporate Transaction (as defined in Section 9(b)) to which Section 9(b)(ii) (relating to assumptions and substitutions of Options) does not apply; provided, however, that an Optionee's right to exercise any Option outstanding prior to such effective date shall in all events be suspended during the period beginning ten (10) days prior to the proposed effective date of such Corporate Transaction and ending on either the actual effective date of such Corporate Transaction or upon receipt of notice from the Company that such Corporate Transaction will not in fact occur; (vi) except to the extent permitted by Section 10(d), the date on which such Option or any part thereof or right or privilege relating thereto is transferred (other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution), assigned, pledged, hypothecated, attached or otherwise disposed of by the Optionee to whom such Option was granted; and (vii) the expiration of such period of time or the occurrence of such event as the Committee in its discretion may provide in the Option Agreement. For purposes of this Plan, the term "Disability" means as defined under the long-term disability policy of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company to which the Optionee provides services regardless of whether the Optionee is covered by such policy or, if the Company or Subsidiary of the Company to which the Optionee provides service does not have a long-term disability plan in place, "Disability" means that an Optionee is unable to carry out the -8- responsibilities and functions of the position held by the Optionee by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment. For purposes of this Plan, the term "Cause" means, with respect to the Optionee's Termination by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, that such Termination is for "Cause" as such term is expressly defined in a then-effective written agreement between the Optionee and the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or in the absence of such then-effective written agreement and definition, is based on, in the determination of the Administrator, (1) the commission by such Optionee of any act of fraud, theft or financial dishonesty with respect to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or such Optionee has been convicted of, or plead guilty or nolo contendere to, a felony, (2) any material breach by such Optionee of any material provision of this Plan or any one or more agreements or understandings between the Company or any Subsidiary thereof on the one hand and such Optionee on the other hand (whether written or oral) regarding the terms of such Optionee's service as a director, officer or employee of, or advisor, independent consultant or independent contractor to, the Company or any Subsidiary thereof, including, without limitation, the willful and continued failure or refusal of such Optionee to perform the material duties required of such Optionee as an director, officer or employee of, or as an advisor, independent consultant or independent contractor to, the Company or any Subsidiary thereof, other than as a result of such Optionee having a Disability, (3) such Optionee's intentional or willful disregard of the policies of the Company or any Subsidiary thereof so as to cause loss, damage or injury to the property, reputation or employees of the Company or any Subsidiary thereof, or (4) any other misconduct by such Optionee which is otherwise materially injurious to the financial condition or business reputation of, or is otherwise materially injurious to, the Company or a Subsidiary thereof. Anything contained in this Plan to the contrary notwithstanding, unless otherwise provided in the applicable Option Agreement, a Termination of an Optionee shall not be deemed to occur solely by reason of the Company's change of the duties of the Optionee, so long as such Optionee continues to be a director, officer or employee of, advisor to, or independent consultant or independent contractor to, the Company or any Subsidiary thereof. For purposes of Section 7(b), an Optionee employed by the Company or any Subsidiary thereof shall not be deemed to have terminated his or her employment with the Company or such Subsidiary in the case of sick leave, military leave, or any other leave of absence approved by the Committee; provided, however, that such leave is for a period of not more than ninety (90) days or reemployment upon the expiration of such leave is guaranteed by contract or statute. 8. PROCEDURE FOR EXERCISE. (a) PAYMENT. At the time an Option is granted under this Plan, the Committee shall, in its sole discretion, specify in the applicable Option Agreement one or more of the following forms of payment which may be used by an Optionee (but only to the extent permitted by applicable law) upon exercise of his or her Option: (i) by cash (by wire transfer of immediately available funds to a bank account held by the Company designated by the Committee or a personal or certified check payable to the Company); -9- (ii) by cancellation of indebtedness of the Company to the Optionee; (iii) by surrender of shares of Common Stock which either (A) have been owned by the Optionee for more than six months and have been paid for within the meaning of Rule 144 promulgated by the SEC under the 1933 Act (and, if such shares of Common Stock were purchased from the Company or any Subsidiary thereof by means of a promissory note, such note has been fully paid with respect to such shares); or (B) were obtained by the Optionee in the public market; (iv) by tender of a full recourse promissory note having such terms as may be approved by the Committee and bearing interest at a rate sufficient to avoid imputation of income under Sections 483 and 1274 of the Code; provided, however, that an Optionee who is not a director, officer or employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries will not be entitled to tender such a promissory note unless the note is adequately secured by collateral other than the shares of Common Stock being purchased upon the exercise of the Option; (v) by waiver of compensation due or accrued to the Optionee for services rendered to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; (vi) if the Common Stock is a class of securities then listed or admitted to trading on any national securities exchange or traded on any national market system (including, but not limited to, The Nasdaq National Market), by payment through a broker-dealer sale and remittance procedure pursuant to which the Optionee (A) shall provide written instructions to a Company-designated brokerage firm to effect the immediate sale of some or all of the purchased shares of Common Stock and remit to the Company, out of the sale proceeds available on the settlement date, sufficient funds to cover the aggregate exercise price payable for the purchased shares of Common Stock and (B) shall provide written directives to the Company to deliver the certificates for the purchased shares of Common Stock directly to such brokerage firm in order to complete the sale transaction; or (vii) any combination of the methods set forth in clauses (i) through (vi). (b) NOTICE. An Optionee (or other person, as provided in Section 10(d)) may exercise an Option granted under this Plan in whole or in part, as provided in the Option Agreement evidencing his or her Option, by delivering a written notice (the "Notice") to the Committee (or such other person or entity designated by the Committee from time to time). (c) CONTENT OF THE NOTICE. The Notice shall: (i) state that the Optionee elects to exercise the Option; (ii) state the number of shares with respect to which the Option is being exercised (the "Optioned Shares"); -10- (iii) state the method of payment for the Optioned Shares (which method must be available to the Optionee under the terms of his or her Option Agreement); (iv) state the date upon which the Optionee desires to consummate the purchase of the Optioned Shares (which date must be prior to the termination of such Option, be no later than 30 days from delivery of such Notice and be not otherwise prohibited under the terms of his or her Option Agreement); (v) include any representations and warranties of the Optionee required pursuant to Section 10(b); (vi) if the Option is exercised pursuant to Section 10(d) by any person other than the Optionee, include evidence to the satisfaction of the Company (or such other person or entity designated by the Committee from time to time) of the right of such person to exercise the Option; and (vii) include such further provisions consistent with this Plan as the Committee (or such other person or entity designated by the Committee from time to time) may from time to time require. (d) JOINDER TO STOCKHOLDERS' AGREEMENT. Except as otherwise set forth in the applicable Option Agreement, no shares of Common Stock shall be issued and delivered upon the exercise of Options granted under this Plan, unless and until the Optionee to whom such shares shall be issued and delivered shall have executed a counterpart to the Stockholders' Agreement of the Company, dated August 10, 2001, among the Company and the stockholders named therein, as the same may be amended from time to time (the "Stockholders' Agreement"), agreeing to be treated as a "Management Stockholder" (as defined therein) with respect to such shares. The Company may delay the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of Options granted under this Plan until the receipt of such counterpart to the Stockholders' Agreement. (e) ISSUANCE OF STOCK CERTIFICATES. The Company shall issue a stock certificate in the name of the Optionee (or such other person exercising the Option in accordance with the provisions of Section 10(d)) for the Optioned Shares with respect to which such Option is being exercised as soon as practicable after receipt of the Notice and payment of the aggregate Option Price for such shares. Neither the Optionee nor any person exercising an Option in accordance with the provisions of Section 10(d) shall have any privileges as a stockholder of the Company with respect to any shares of stock subject to an Option granted under this Plan until the date of issuance of a stock certificate. (f) 83(b) ELECTIONS. Each Optionee shall deliver to the Company a copy of any election filed by such Optionee with the Internal Revenue Service relating to any Optioned Shares no later than 30 days following the filing of such election with the Internal Revenue Service. -11- 9. ADJUSTMENTS. (a) CHANGES IN CAPITAL STRUCTURE. Subject to Section 9(b), if the Common Stock is changed by reason of a stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, combination or reclassification, or converted into or exchanged for other securities as a result of a merger, consolidation or reorganization, the Committee shall make such adjustments in the number and class of shares of stock with respect to which Options may be granted under this Plan as shall be equitable and appropriate in order to make such Options, as nearly as may be practicable, equivalent to such Options immediately prior to such change. A corresponding adjustment changing the number and class of shares allocated to, and the Option Price of, each Option or portion thereof outstanding at the time of such change shall likewise be made.

In the event that any federal, state, or local income taxes, employment taxes, Federal Insurance Contributions Act ("FICA") withholdings or other amounts are required by applicable law or governmental regulation to be withheld from the Optionee's salary, wages or other remuneration in connection with the exercise of an Option or a Disqualifying Disposition, the Company may withhold from such Optionee's wages, if any, or other remuneration, or may require the Optionee to advance in cash to the Company the amount of such withholdings unless a different withholding arrangement, including the use of shares of Common Stock, is authorized by the Committee (and permitted by applicable law); provided, however, that with respect to persons subject to Section 16 of the 1934 Act, any such withholding arrangement shall be in compliance with any applicable provisions of Rule 16b-3 promulgated under Section 16 of the 1934 Act. For purposes of this Section 16, the Fair Market Value of the shares of Common Stock (if any) withheld for purposes of payroll withholding shall be determined as of the most recent date practicable prior to the date of exercise and in the manner provided in Section 6(b). If the Fair Market Value of the shares of Common Stock withheld is less than the amount of the payroll withholdings required, the Optionee may be required to advance the difference in cash to the Company. In no event will the value of Shares withheld exceed the minimum amount of required withholding under applicable law. The Committee may condition the transfer of any shares of Common Stock or the removal of any restrictions on any Option on the satisfaction by the Optionee of the foregoing withholding obligations. 17. OTHER PROVISIONS. Each Option granted under this Plan may contain such other terms and conditions not inconsistent with this Plan as may be determined by the Committee, in its sole discretion.

NO RESTRICTION ON CORPORATE POWERS. The existence of this Plan, the Option Agreements, and the Options granted hereunder, shall not limit, affect or restrict in any way the right or power of the Board or the stockholders of the Company to make or authorize: (a) any adjustment, recapitalization, reorganization or other change in the Company's or any Subsidiary's capital structure or its business; (b) any merger, amalgamation, consolidation or change in the ownership of the Company or any Subsidiary; (c) any issue of bonds, debentures, capital, preferred or prior preference stocks ahead of or affecting the Company's capital stock or the rights thereof; (d) any dissolution or liquidation of the Company or any Subsidiary; (e) any sale or transfer of all or any part of the Company or any Subsidiary's assets or business; or (f) any other corporate act or proceeding by the Company or any Subsidiary.

Additionally, any shares of Stock tendered or withheld to satisfy the grant or exercise price or tax withholding obligation pursuant to any Award shall again be available for the grant of an Award pursuant to the Plan. To the extent permitted by applicable law or any exchange rule, shares of Stock issued in assumption of, or in substitution for, any outstanding awards of any entity acquired in any form of combination by the Company or any Subsidiary shall not be counted against shares of Stock available for grant pursuant to this Plan. The payment of Dividend Equivalents in cash in conjunction with any outstanding Awards shall not be counted against the shares available for issuance under the Plan. Notwithstanding the -6- provisions of this Section 3.1(b), no shares of Common Stock may again be optioned, granted or awarded if such action would cause an Incentive Stock Option to fail to qualify as an incentive stock option under Section 422 of the Code. 3.2 Stock Distributed. Any Stock distributed pursuant to an Award may consist, in whole or in part, of authorized and unissued Stock, treasury Stock or Stock purchased on the open market. 3.3 Limitation on Number of Shares Subject to Awards. Notwithstanding any provision in the Plan to the contrary, and subject to Article 11, the maximum number of shares of Stock with respect to one or more Awards that may be granted to any one Participant during any fiscal year of the Company shall be 750,000; provided, however, that the foregoing limitation shall not apply prior to the Public Trading Date and, following the Public Trading Date, the foregoing limitation shall not apply until the earliest of: (a) the first material modification of the Plan (including any increase in the number of shares reserved for issuance under the Plan in accordance with Section 3.1); (b) the issuance of all of the shares of Stock reserved for issuance under the Plan; (c) the expiration of the Plan; (d) the first meeting of stockholders at which members of the Board are to be elected that occurs after the close of the third calendar year following the calendar year in which occurred the first registration of an equity security of the Company under Section 12 of the Exchange Act; or (e) such other date required by Section 162(m) of the Code and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. The maximum amount payable with respect to Performance Bonus Awards to a Covered Employee during any fiscal year of the Company shall be $3,000,000. ARTICLE 4 ELIGIBILITY AND PARTICIPATION 4.1 Eligibility. Each Eligible Individual shall be eligible to be granted one or more Awards pursuant to the Plan. 4.2 Participation.

No Eligible Individual shall have any right to be granted an Award pursuant to this Plan. 4.3 Foreign Participants. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, in order to comply with the laws in other countries in which the Company and its Subsidiaries operate or have Eligible Individuals, the Committee, in its sole discretion, shall have the power and authority to: (i) determine which Subsidiaries shall be covered by the Plan; (ii) determine which Eligible Individuals outside the United States are eligible to participate in the Plan; (iii) modify the terms and conditions of any Award granted to Eligible Individuals outside the United States to comply with applicable foreign laws; (iv) establish subplans and modify exercise procedures and other terms and procedures, to the extent such actions may be necessary or advisable (any such subplans and/or modifications shall be attached to this Plan as appendices); provided, however, that no such subplans and/or modifications shall increase the share limitations contained in Sections 3.1 and 3.3 of the Plan; and (v) take any action, before or after -7- an Award is made, that it deems advisable to obtain approval or comply with any necessary local governmental regulatory exemptions or approvals. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may not take any actions hereunder, and no Awards shall be granted, that would violate the Exchange Act, the Code, any securities law or governing statute or any other applicable law. ARTICLE 5 STOCK OPTIONS 5.1 General. The Committee is authorized to grant Options to Participants on the following terms and conditions: (a) Exercise Price. The exercise price per share of Stock subject to an Option shall be determined by the Committee and set forth in the Award Agreement; provided that, subject to Section 5.2(d), the exercise price for any Option shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the date of grant. (b) Time and Conditions of Exercise. The Committee shall determine the time or times at which an Option may be exercised in whole or in part; provided that the term of any Option granted under the Plan shall not exceed ten years. The Committee shall also determine the performance or other conditions, if any, that must be satisfied before all or part of an Option may be exercised. (c) Payment. The Committee shall determine the methods by which the exercise price of an Option may be paid, the form of payment, including, without limitation: (i) cash, (ii) except with respect to Incentive Stock Options, shares of Stock issuable to the Option holder upon exercise of the Option, with a Fair Market Value on the date of the Option exercise equal to the aggregate Option exercise price of the shares with respect to which such Option or portion thereof is thereby exercised, (iii) shares of Stock held for such period of time as may be required by the Committee in order to avoid adverse accounting consequences and having a Fair Market Value on the date of delivery equal to the aggregate exercise price of the Option or exercised portion thereof, or (iv) through the delivery of a notice that the Participant has placed a market sell order with a broker with respect to shares of Stock then issuable upon exercise of the Option, and that the broker has been directed to pay a sufficient portion of the net proceeds of the sale to the Company in satisfaction of the Option exercise price; provided that payment of such proceeds is then made to the Company upon settlement of such sale. The Committee shall also determine the methods by which shares of Stock shall be delivered or deemed to be delivered to Participants. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, no Participant who is a member of the Board or an "executive officer" of the Company within the meaning of Section 13(k) of the Exchange Act shall be permitted to pay the exercise price of an Option in any method which would violate Section 13(k) of the Exchange Act. (d) Evidence of Grant. All Options shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement between the Company and the Participant. The Award Agreement shall include such additional provisions as may be specified by the Committee. -8- 5.2 Incentive Stock Options. Incentive Stock Options shall be granted only to Employees and the terms of any Incentive Stock Options granted pursuant to the Plan, in addition to the requirements of Section 5.1, must comply with the provisions of this Section 5.2. (a) Expiration.

Upon the Participant's Disability or death, any Incentive Stock Options exercisable at the Participant's Disability or death may be exercised by the Participant's legal representative or representatives, by the person or persons entitled to do so pursuant to the Participant's last will and testament, or, if the Participant fails to make testamentary disposition of such Incentive Stock Option or dies intestate, by the person or persons entitled to receive the Incentive Stock Option pursuant to the applicable laws of descent and distribution. (b) Individual Dollar Limitation. The aggregate Fair Market Value (determined as of the time the Option is granted) of all shares of Stock with respect to which Incentive Stock Options are first exercisable by a Participant in any calendar year may not exceed $100,000 or such other limitation as imposed by Section 422(d) of the Code, or any successor provision. To the extent that Incentive Stock Options are first exercisable by a Participant in excess of such limitation, the excess shall be considered Non-Qualified Stock Options. (c) Ten Percent Owners. An Incentive Stock Option shall be granted to any individual who, at the date of grant, owns stock possessing more than ten percent of the total combined voting power of all classes of Stock of the Company only if such Option is granted at a price that is not less than 110% of Fair Market Value on the date of grant and the Option is exercisable for no more than five years from the date of grant. (d) Transfer Restriction. The Participant shall give the Company prompt notice of any disposition of shares of Stock acquired by exercise of an Incentive Stock Option within (i) two years from the date of grant of such Incentive Stock Option or (ii) one year after the transfer of such shares of Stock to the Participant. (e) Expiration of Incentive Stock Options. No Award of an Incentive Stock Option may be made pursuant to this Plan after the tenth anniversary of the Effective Date. (f) Right to Exercise. During a Participant's lifetime, an Incentive Stock Option may be exercised only by the Participant. -9- (g) Failure to Meet Requirements. Any Option (or portion thereof) purported to be an Incentive Stock Option, which, for any reason, fails to meet the requirements of Section 422 of the Code shall be considered a Non-Qualified Stock Option. 5.3 Granting of Options to Independent Directors. The Board may from time to time, in its sole discretion, and subject to the limitations of the Plan: (a) Select from among the Independent Directors (including Independent Directors who have previously been granted Options under the Plan) such of them as in its opinion should be granted Options; (b) Subject to Section 3.3, determine the number of shares of Stock that may be purchased upon exercise of the Options granted to such selected Independent Directors; and (c) Subject to the provisions of this Article 5, determine the terms and conditions of such Options, consistent with the Plan. Options granted to Independent Directors shall be Non-Qualified Stock Options. ARTICLE 6 RESTRICTED STOCK AWARDS 6.1 Grant of Restricted Stock. The Committee is authorized to make Awards of Restricted Stock to any Participant selected by the Committee in such amounts and subject to such terms and conditions as determined by the Committee. All Awards of Restricted Stock shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement. 6.2 Issuance and Restrictions. Restricted Stock shall be subject to such restrictions on transferability and other restrictions as the Committee may impose (including, without limitation, limitations on the right to vote Restricted Stock or the right to receive dividends on the Restricted Stock). These restrictions may lapse separately or in combination at such times, pursuant to such circumstances, in such installments, or otherwise (including, without limitation, pursuant to the satisfaction or time-vesting requirements, performance vesting requirements, or both), as the Committee determines at the time of the grant of the Award or thereafter. 6.3 Forfeiture. Except as otherwise determined by the Committee at the time of the grant of the Award or thereafter, upon termination of employment or service during the applicable restriction period, Restricted Stock that is at that time subject to restrictions shall be forfeited; provided, however, that, the Committee may (a) provide in any Restricted Stock Award Agreement that restrictions or forfeiture conditions relating to Restricted Stock will be waived in whole or in part in the event of terminations resulting from specified causes, and (b) in other cases waive in whole or in part restrictions or forfeiture conditions relating to Restricted Stock. 6.4 Certificates for Restricted Stock. Restricted Stock granted pursuant to the Plan may be evidenced in such manner as the Committee shall determine. If certificates representing shares of Restricted Stock are registered in the name of the Participant, certificates must bear an appropriate legend referring to the terms, conditions, and restrictions applicable to such -10- Restricted Stock, and the Company may, at its discretion, retain physical possession of the certificate until such time as all applicable restrictions lapse. ARTICLE 7 STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS 7.1 Grant of Stock Appreciation Rights. (a) A Stock Appreciation Right may be granted to any Participant selected by the Committee. A Stock Appreciation Right shall be subject to such terms and conditions not inconsistent with the Plan as the Committee shall impose and shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement. (b) A Stock Appreciation Right shall entitle the Participant (or other person entitled to exercise the Stock Appreciation Right pursuant to the Plan) to exercise all or a specified portion of the Stock Appreciation Right (to the extent then exercisable pursuant to its terms) and to receive from the Company an amount equal to the product of (i) the excess of (A) the Fair Market Value of the Stock on the date the Stock Appreciation Right is exercised over (B) the Fair Market Value of the Stock on the date the Stock Appreciation Right was granted and (ii) the number of shares of Stock with respect to which the Stock Appreciation Right is exercised, subject to any limitations the Committee may impose. 7.2 Payment and Limitations on Exercise. Payment of the amounts determined under Sections 7.1(b) above shall be in Stock (based on its Fair Market Value as of the date the Stock Appreciation Right is exercised) and shall be made subject to satisfaction of all provisions of Article 5 above pertaining to Options. ARTICLE 8 OTHER TYPES OF AWARDS 8.1 Performance Share Awards. Any Participant selected by the Committee may be granted one or more Performance Share awards which shall be denominated in a number of shares of Stock and which may be linked to any one or more of the Performance Criteria or other specific performance criteria determined appropriate by the Committee, in each case on a specified date or dates or over any period or periods determined by the Committee. In making such determinations, the Committee shall consider (among such other factors as it deems relevant in light of the specific type of award) the contributions, responsibilities and other compensation of the particular Participant. 8.2 Performance Stock Units. Any Participant selected by the Committee may be granted one or more Performance Stock Unit awards which shall be denominated in unit equivalent of shares of Stock and/or units of value including dollar value of shares of Stock and which may be linked to any one or more of the Performance Criteria or other specific performance criteria determined appropriate by the Committee, in each case on a specified date or dates or over any period or periods determined by the Committee. In making such -11- determinations, the Committee shall consider (among such other factors as it deems relevant in light of the specific type of award) the contributions, responsibilities and other compensation of the particular Participant. 8.3 Dividend Equivalents. (a) Any Participant selected by the Committee may be granted Dividend Equivalents based on the dividends declared on the shares of Stock that are subject to any Award, to be credited as of dividend payment dates, during the period between the date the Award is granted and the date the Award is exercised, vests or expires, as determined by the Committee. Such Dividend Equivalents shall be converted to cash or additional shares of Stock by such formula and at such time and subject to such limitations as may be determined by the Committee. (b) Dividend Equivalents granted with respect to Options or SARs that are intended to be Qualified Performance-Based Compensation shall be payable, with respect to pre-exercise periods, regardless of whether such Option or SAR is subsequently exercised. 8.4 Stock Payments. Any Participant selected by the Committee may receive Stock Payments in the manner determined from time to time by the Committee. The number of shares shall be determined by the Committee and may be based upon the Performance Criteria or other specific performance criteria determined appropriate by the Committee, determined on the date such Stock Payment is made or on any date thereafter. 8.5 Deferred Stock. Any Participant selected by the Committee may be granted an award of Deferred Stock in the manner determined from time to time by the Committee. The number of shares of Deferred Stock shall be determined by the Committee and may be linked to the Performance Criteria or other specific performance criteria determined to be appropriate by the Committee, in each case on a specified date or dates or over any period or periods determined by the Committee. Stock underlying a Deferred Stock award will not be issued until the Deferred Stock award has vested, pursuant to a vesting schedule or performance criteria set by the Committee. Unless otherwise provided by the Committee, a Participant awarded Deferred Stock shall have no rights as a Company stockholder with respect to such Deferred Stock until such time as the Deferred Stock Award has vested and the Stock underlying the Deferred Stock Award has been issued. 8.6 Restricted Stock Units. The Committee is authorized to make Awards of Restricted Stock Units to any Participant selected by the Committee in such amounts and subject to such terms and conditions as determined by the Committee. At the time of grant, the Committee shall specify the date or dates on which the Restricted Stock Units shall become fully vested and nonforfeitable, and may specify such conditions to vesting as it deems appropriate. At the time of grant, the Committee shall specify the maturity date applicable to each grant of Restricted Stock Units which shall be no earlier than the vesting date or dates of the Award and may be determined at the election of the grantee. On the maturity date, the Company shall, subject to Section 10.5(b), transfer to the Participant one unrestricted, fully transferable share of Stock for each Restricted Stock Unit scheduled to be paid out on such date and not previously -12- forfeited. The Committee shall specify the purchase price, if any, to be paid by the grantee to the Company for such shares of Stock. 8.7 Performance Bonus Awards. Any Participant selected by the Committee may be granted one or more Performance-Based Awards in the form of a cash bonus (a "Performance Bonus Award") payable upon the attainment of Performance Goals that are established by the Committee and relate to one or more of the Performance Criteria, in each case on a specified date or dates or over any period or periods determined by the Committee. Any such Performance Bonus Award paid to a Covered Employee shall be based upon objectively determinable bonus formulas established in accordance with Article 9. 8.8 Term. Except as otherwise provided herein, the term of any Award of Performance Shares, Performance Stock Units, Dividend Equivalents, Stock Payments, Deferred Stock or Restricted Stock Units shall be set by the Committee in its discretion. 8.9 Exercise or Purchase Price. The Committee may establish the exercise or purchase price, if any, of any Award of Performance Shares, Performance Stock Units, Deferred Stock, Stock Payments or Restricted Stock Units; provided, however, that such price shall not be less than the par value of a share of Stock on the date of grant, unless otherwise permitted by applicable state law. 8.10 Exercise upon Termination of Employment or Service. An Award of Performance Shares, Performance Stock Units, Dividend Equivalents, Deferred Stock, Stock Payments and Restricted Stock Units shall only be exercisable or payable while the Participant is an Employee, Consultant or a member of the Board, as applicable; provided, however, that the Committee in its sole and absolute discretion may provide that an Award of Performance Shares, Performance Stock Units, Dividend Equivalents, Stock Payments, Deferred Stock or Restricted Stock Units may be exercised or paid subsequent to a termination of employment or service, as applicable, or following a Change in Control of the Company, or because of the Participant's retirement, death or disability, or otherwise; provided, however, that any such provision with respect to Performance Shares or Performance Stock Units shall be subject to the requirements of Section 162(m) of the Code that apply to Qualified Performance-Based Compensation. 8.11 Form of Payment. Payments with respect to any Awards granted under this Article 8 shall be made in cash, in Stock or a combination of both, as determined by the Committee. 8.12 Award Agreement. All Awards under this Article 8 shall be subject to such additional terms and conditions as determined by the Committee and shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement. ARTICLE 9 PERFORMANCE-BASED AWARDS 9.1 Purpose. The purpose of this Article 9 is to provide the Committee the ability to qualify Awards other than Options and SARs and that are granted pursuant to Articles 6 and 8 as Qualified Performance-Based Compensation. If the Committee, in its discretion, decides to -13- grant a Performance-Based Award to a Covered Employee, the provisions of this Article 9 shall control over any contrary provision contained in Articles 6 or 8; provided, however, that the Committee may in its discretion grant Awards to Covered Employees that are based on Performance Criteria or Performance Goals but that do not satisfy the requirements of this Article 9. 9.2 Applicability. This Article 9 shall apply only to those Covered Employees selected by the Committee to receive Performance-Based Awards. The designation of a Covered Employee as a Participant for a Performance Period shall not in any manner entitle the Participant to receive an Award for the period. Moreover, designation of a Covered Employee as a Participant for a particular Performance Period shall not require designation of such Covered Employee as a Participant in any subsequent Performance Period and designation of one Covered Employee as a Participant shall not require designation of any other Covered Employees as a Participant in such period or in any other period. 9.3 Procedures with Respect to Performance-Based Awards. To the extent necessary to comply with the Qualified Performance-Based Compensation requirements of Section 162(m)(4)(C) of the Code, with respect to any Award granted under Articles 6 and 8 which may be granted to one or more Covered Employees, no later than ninety (90) days following the commencement of any fiscal year in question or any other designated fiscal period or period of service (or such other time as may be required or permitted by Section 162(m) of the Code), the Committee shall, in writing, (a) designate one or more Covered Employees, (b) select the Performance Criteria applicable to the Performance Period, (c) establish the Performance Goals, and amounts of such Awards, as applicable, which may be earned for such Performance Period, and (d) specify the relationship between Performance Criteria and the Performance Goals and the amounts of such Awards, as applicable, to be earned by each Covered Employee for such Performance Period. Following the completion of each Performance Period, the Committee shall certify in writing whether the applicable Performance Goals have been achieved for such Performance Period. In determining the amount earned by a Covered Employee, the Committee shall have the right to reduce or eliminate (but not to increase) the amount payable at a given level of performance to take into account additional factors that the Committee may deem relevant to the assessment of individual or corporate performance for the Performance Period. 9.4 Payment of Performance-Based Awards. Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Award Agreement, a Participant must be employed by the Company or a Subsidiary on the day a Performance-Based Award for such Performance Period is paid to the Participant. Furthermore, a Participant shall be eligible to receive payment pursuant to a Performance-Based Award for a Performance Period only if the Performance Goals for such period are achieved. In determining the amount earned under a Performance-Based Award, the Committee may reduce or eliminate the amount of the Performance-Based Award earned for the Performance Period, if in its sole and absolute discretion, such reduction or elimination is appropriate. 9.5 Additional Limitations. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, any Award which is granted to a Covered Employee and is intended to constitute Qualified Performance-Based Compensation shall be subject to any additional limitations set forth in Section 162(m) of the Code (including any amendment to Section 162(m) of the Code) or any regulations or rulings issued thereunder that are requirements for qualification as qualified performance-based -14- compensation as described in Section 162(m)(4)(C) of the Code, and the Plan shall be deemed amended to the extent necessary to conform to such requirements. ARTICLE 10 PROVISIONS APPLICABLE TO AWARDS 10.1 Stand-Alone and Tandem Awards. Awards granted pursuant to the Plan may, in the discretion of the Committee, be granted either alone, in addition to, or in tandem with, any other Award granted pursuant to the Plan. Awards granted in addition to or in tandem with other Awards may be granted either at the same time as or at a different time from the grant of such other Awards. 10.2 Award Agreement. Awards under the Plan shall be evidenced by Award Agreements that set forth the terms, conditions and limitations for each Award which may include the term of an Award, the provisions applicable in the event the Participant's employment or service terminates, and the Company's authority to unilaterally or bilaterally amend, modify, suspend, cancel or rescind an Award. 10.3 Limits on Transfer. No right or interest of a Participant in any Award may be pledged, encumbered, or hypothecated to or in favor of any party other than the Company or a Subsidiary, or shall be subject to any lien, obligation, or liability of such Participant to any other party other than the Company or a Subsidiary. Except as otherwise provided by the Committee, no Award shall be assigned, transferred, or otherwise disposed of by a Participant other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution. The Committee by express provision in the Award or an amendment thereto may permit an Award (other than an Incentive Stock Option) to be transferred to, exercised by and paid to certain persons or entities related to the Participant, including but not limited to members of the Participant's family, charitable institutions, or trusts or other entities whose beneficiaries or beneficial owners are members of the Participant's family and/or charitable institutions, or to such other persons or entities as may be expressly approved by the Committee, pursuant to such conditions and procedures as the Committee may establish. Any permitted transfer shall be subject to the condition that the Committee receive evidence satisfactory to it that the transfer is being made for estate and/or tax planning purposes (or to a "blind trust" in connection with the Participant's termination of employment or service with the Company or a Subsidiary to assume a position with a governmental, charitable, educational or similar non-profit institution) and on a basis consistent with the Company's lawful issue of securities. 10.4 Beneficiaries. Notwithstanding Section 10.3, a Participant may, in the manner determined by the Committee, designate a beneficiary to exercise the rights of the Participant and to receive any distribution with respect to any Award upon the Participant's death. A beneficiary, legal guardian, legal representative, or other person claiming any rights pursuant to the Plan is subject to all terms and conditions of the Plan and any Award Agreement applicable to the Participant, except to the extent the Plan and Award Agreement otherwise provide, and to any additional restrictions deemed necessary or appropriate by the Committee. If the Participant is married and resides in a community property state, a designation of a person other than the -15- Participant's spouse as his or her beneficiary with respect to more than 50% of the Participant's interest in the Award shall not be effective without the prior written consent of the Participant's spouse. If no beneficiary has been designated or survives the Participant, payment shall be made to the person entitled thereto pursuant to the Participant's will or the laws of descent and distribution. Subject to the foregoing, a beneficiary designation may be changed or revoked by a Participant at any time provided the change or revocation is filed with the Committee. 10.5 Stock Certificates; Book Entry Procedures. (a) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver any certificates evidencing shares of Stock pursuant to the exercise of any Award, unless and until the Board has determined, with advice of counsel, that the issuance and delivery of such certificates is in compliance with all applicable laws, regulations of governmental authorities and, if applicable, the requirements of any exchange on which the shares of Stock are listed or traded. All Stock certificates delivered pursuant to the Plan are subject to any stop-transfer orders and other restrictions as the Committee deems necessary or advisable to comply with federal, state, or foreign jurisdiction, securities or other laws, rules and regulations and the rules of any national securities exchange or automated quotation system on which the Stock is listed, quoted, or traded. The Committee may place legends on any Stock certificate to reference restrictions applicable to the Stock. In addition to the terms and conditions provided herein, the Board may require that a Participant make such reasonable covenants, agreements, and representations as the Board, in its discretion, deems advisable in order to comply with any such laws, regulations, or requirements. The Committee shall have the right to require any Participant to comply with any timing or other restrictions with respect to the settlement or exercise of any Award, including a window-period limitation, as may be imposed in the discretion of the Committee. (b) Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, unless otherwise determined by the Committee or required by any applicable law, rule or regulation, the Company shall not deliver to any Participant certificates evidencing shares of Stock issued in connection with any Award and instead such shares of Stock shall be recorded in the books of the Company (or, as applicable, its transfer agent or stock plan administrator). 10.6 Paperless Exercise. In the event that the Company establishes, for itself or using the services of a third party, an automated system for the exercise of Awards, such as a system using an internet website or interactive voice response, then the paperless exercise of Awards by a Participant may be permitted through the use of such an automated system. ARTICLE 11 CHANGES IN CAPITAL STRUCTURE 11.1 Adjustments. In the event of any stock dividend, stock split, combination or exchange of shares, merger, consolidation, spin-off, recapitalization or other distribution (other than normal cash dividends) of Company assets to stockholders, or any other change affecting the shares of Stock or the share price of the Stock, the Committee shall make such proportionate adjustments, if any, as the Committee in its discretion may deem appropriate to reflect such -16- change with respect to (a) the aggregate number and kind of shares that may be issued under the Plan (including, but not limited to, adjustments of the limitations in Sections 3.1 and 3.3); (b) the terms and conditions of any outstanding Awards (including, without limitation, any applicable performance targets or criteria with respect thereto); and (c) the grant or exercise price per share for any outstanding Awards under the Plan. Any adjustment affecting an Award intended as Qualified Performance-Based Compensation shall be made consistent with the requirements of Section 162(m) of the Code. 11.2 Change in Control. In the event of any transaction or event described in Section 11.1 or any unusual or nonrecurring transactions or events affecting the Company, any affiliate of the Company, or the financial statements of the Company or any affiliate, or of changes in applicable laws, regulations or accounting principles, the Committee, in its sole and absolute discretion, and on such terms and conditions as it deems appropriate, either by the terms of the Award or by action taken prior to the occurrence of such transaction or event and either automatically or upon the Participant's request, is hereby authorized to take any one or more of the following actions whenever the Committee determines that such action is appropriate in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under the Plan or with respect to any Award under the Plan, to facilitate such transactions or events or to give effect to such changes in laws, regulations or principles: (i) To provide for either (A) termination of any such Award in exchange for an amount of cash, if any, equal to the amount that would have been attained upon the exercise of such Award or realization of the Participant's rights (and, for the avoidance of doubt, if as of the date of the occurrence of the transaction or event described in this Section 11.2 the Committee determines in good faith that no amount would have been attained upon the exercise of such Award or realization of the Participant's rights, then such Award may be terminated by the Company without payment) or (B) the replacement of such Award with other rights or property selected by the Committee in its sole discretion; (ii) To provide that such Award be assumed by the successor or survivor corporation, or a parent or subsidiary thereof, or shall be substituted for by similar options, rights or awards covering the stock of the successor or survivor corporation, or a parent or subsidiary thereof, with appropriate adjustments as to the number and kind of shares and prices; (iii) To make adjustments in the number and type of shares of Common Stock (or other securities or property) subject to outstanding Awards, and in the number and kind of outstanding Restricted Stock or Deferred Stock and/or in the terms and conditions of (including the grant or exercise price), and the criteria included in, outstanding options, rights and awards and options, rights and awards which may be granted in the future; (iv) To provide that such Award shall be exercisable or payable or fully vested with respect to all shares covered thereby, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan or the applicable Award Agreement; and (v) To provide that the Award cannot vest, be exercised or become payable after such event. -17- 11.3 Acceleration Upon a Change in Control. Notwithstanding Section 11.2, and except as may otherwise be provided in any applicable Award Agreement or other written agreement entered into between the Company and a Participant, if a Change in Control occurs and a Participant's Awards are not converted, assumed, or replaced by a successor entity, then immediately prior to the Change in Control such Awards shall become fully exercisable and all forfeiture restrictions on such Awards shall lapse. Upon, or in anticipation of, a Change in Control, the Committee may cause any and all Awards outstanding hereunder to terminate at a specific time in the future, including but not limited to the date of such Change in Control, and shall give each Participant the right to exercise such Awards during a period of time as the Committee, in its sole and absolute discretion, shall determine. 11.4 Outstanding Awards - Certain Mergers. Subject to any required action by the stockholders of the Company, in the event that the Company shall be the surviving corporation in any merger or consolidation (except a merger or consolidation as a result of which the holders of shares of Stock receive securities of another corporation), each Award outstanding on the date of such merger or consolidation shall pertain to and apply to the securities that a holder of the number of shares of Stock subject to such Award would have received in such merger or consolidation. 11.5 Outstanding Awards - Other Changes. In the event of any other change in the capitalization of the Company or corporate change other than those specifically referred to in this Article 11, the Committee may, in its absolute discretion, make such adjustments in the number and kind of shares or other securities subject to Awards outstanding on the date on which such change occurs and in the per share grant or exercise price of each Award as the Committee may consider appropriate to prevent dilution or enlargement of rights. 11.6 No Other Rights. Except as expressly provided in the Plan, no Participant shall have any rights by reason of any subdivision or consolidation of shares of stock of any class, the payment of any dividend, any increase or decrease in the number of shares of stock of any class or any dissolution, liquidation, merger, or consolidation of the Company or any other corporation. Except as expressly provided in the Plan or pursuant to action of the Committee under the Plan, no issuance by the Company of shares of stock of any class, or securities convertible into shares of stock of any class, shall affect, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall be made with respect to, the number of shares of Stock subject to an Award or the grant or exercise price of any Award. ARTICLE 12 ADMINISTRATION 12.1 Committee. Unless and until the Board delegates administration of the Plan to a Committee as set forth below, the Plan shall be administered by the full Board, and for such purposes the term "Committee" as used in this Plan shall be deemed to refer to the Board.

STOCK OWNERSHIP AND RETENTION PROGRAM This Stock Ownership and Retention Program of DealerTrack Holdings, Inc. (the "Company") was adopted by the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board") on May 26, 2005, to be effective upon the Public Trading Date (the "Effective Date"). In the event that the Public Trading Date does not occur on or prior to the first anniversary of the Effective Date, this Program will be void ab initio. 1. PURPOSE It is the policy of the Board that each Covered Individual, consistent with his or her responsibilities to the stockholders of the Company as a whole, hold a significant equity interest in the Company. 2. SHARE OWNERSHIP AND RETENTION REQUIREMENTS (a) Minimum Share Requirement. The Board expects that all Covered Individuals will make a good faith effort, depending on the circumstances, to attain a level of Share ownership equal to the Minimum Share Requirement, as applicable. (b) Counting. Shares that count toward the satisfaction of the Minimum Share Requirement include Shares owned outright by the Covered Individual or by his or her spouse or minor children, Shares held in trust for the benefit of the Covered Individual or for the benefit of his or her spouse or minor children, or Restricted Stock held pursuant to the DealerTrack Holdings, Inc. 2005 Incentive Award Plan (the "2005 Incentive Plan") or other equity compensation plan of the Company. Unexercised options (whether or not vested) or held pursuant to any Company equity compensation plan will not count towards satisfaction of the Minimum Share Requirement. 3. INITIAL COMPLIANCE, REPORTING AND RESTRICTIONS (a) Initial Compliance. Covered Individuals must attain a level of Share ownership equal to the Minimum Share Requirement by the fifth (5th) anniversary of the later of (i) the Effective Date or (ii) the date that such Covered Individual commences services as an employee or director of the Company. (b) Reporting. Once in compliance with the Minimum Share Requirement, each Covered Individual must sign an attestation, in such form as shall be provided by the Company, that he or she has achieved the ownership requirement in compliance with this Program. (c) Retention of Share Acquisitions. Until the Minimum Share Requirement is achieved, and thereafter whenever the Minimum Share Requirement is not complied with, a Covered Individual must retain twenty-five percent (25%) of all Shares acquired by such Covered Individual pursuant to the exercise of a stock option (net of Shares surrendered for payment, as applicable, of any option exercise price and taxes). Once the Covered Individual achieves, and for so long as such Covered Individual remains in compliance with, the Minimum Share Requirement, the Covered Individual does not need to comply with this retention restriction. (d) Maintaining Share Ownership. Once a Covered Individual satisfies the Minimum Share Requirement, such Covered Individual must continue to satisfy such requirement for as long as he or she remains a Covered Individual. 4. COMPLIANCE AND ENFORCEMENT (a) Determination of Share Ownership. Each Covered Individual's satisfaction of the Minimum Share Requirement will be determined annually as of December 31st in any given year, subject to Section 3(a), by the Committee. (b) Enforcement of Minimum Share Requirement. At the sole discretion of the Committee of the Board, a failure of a Covered Individual to satisfy the Minimum Share Requirement may result in the reduction of, limitation in or cancellation of Shares such Covered Individual shall receive in subsequent grants or awards. (c) Exceptions. The Minimum Share Requirement and other requirements of this Program may be waived, at the sole discretion of the Committee, for a Covered Individual (i) if compliance would create severe hardship, (ii) if compliance would prevent the Covered Individual from complying with a court order, as in the case of a divorce settlement, or (iii) when such Covered Individual attains the age of 62. A Covered Individual may file notice with the Company's Secretary to be presented to the Committee, advising the Committee of the circumstances and describing the extent of the waiver requested. It is expected that these instances will be rare. 5. ADMINISTRATION OF THE PROGRAM (a) Authority. The Committee shall conduct the general administration of the Program in accordance with its provisions. The Committee shall have full power and authority to interpret the Program and to adopt such rules for the administration, interpretation and application of the Program as are consistent therewith and to interpret, amend or revoke any such rules. The Committee may delegate administrative duties under the Program to one or more agents as it shall deem necessary or advisable. Any decision or action taken by the Committee with respect to the administration or interpretation of the Program shall be conclusive and binding on all persons. (b) Liability. No member of the Board shall be personally liable for any action or determination made in good faith with respect to the Program or to any settlement of any dispute between a Covered Individual and the Company. The Board shall be entitled to rely upon the advice, opinions or valuations of any attorneys, consultants, accountants, appraisers, brokers or other persons. 6.

(c) A Participant shall automatically participate in the next Offering Period commencing immediately after the Exercise Date of each Offering Period provided that such Participant remains an Eligible Employee on the Offering Date of the new Offering Period and has not withdrawn from the Plan pursuant to Section 7.1. A Participant who automatically participates in a subsequent Offering Period, as provided in this Section, is not required to deliver an additional payroll deduction authorization to continue participation. However, a Participant may deliver a new payroll deduction authorization on a form prescribed by the Company if the Participant desires to change any of the elections contained in the Participant's then effective authorization. (d) Except as otherwise provided herein, the amount to be deducted under the Plan from a Participant's Compensation on each payday during an Offering Period shall be - 3 - determined by the Participant's payroll deduction authorization, which shall set forth the percentage of the Participant's Compensation to be deducted on each payday during the Offering Period. Payroll deductions (i) shall be equal to at least one percent (1%), but not more than twenty percent (20%), of the Participant's Compensation as of the Offering Date; (ii) must equal at least five dollars ($5.00) per pay period; and (iii) may be expressed either as (A) a whole number percentage or (B) a fixed dollar amount, subject to the provisions of Sections 5.2 and 5.3 below. Amounts deducted from a Participant's Compensation pursuant to this Section 3.2 shall be credited to the Participant's Plan Account. (e) Payroll deductions shall commence on the first payday following the Offering Date and shall continue, unless sooner altered or terminated as provided herein, to (i) the last payday immediately prior to the end of the Offering Period or (ii) if the last payday coincides with the last day of the Offering Period, on the last day of the Offering Period. (f) During an Offering Period, a Participant may elect to increase or decrease the rate of or to stop deductions from his or her Compensation by delivering to the Company's designated office an amended payroll deduction authorization. A Participant who elects to decrease the rate of his or her payroll deductions to zero percent (0%) shall nevertheless remain a Participant in the current Offering Period unless such Participant withdraws from the Plan as provided in Section 6.1. (g) The Company, in its sole discretion, may suspend a Participant's payroll deductions under the Plan as the Company deems advisable to avoid accumulating payroll deductions in excess of the amount that could reasonably be anticipated to purchase the maximum number of shares of Common Stock permitted during a calendar year under the limit set forth in Section 4.3. Payroll deductions shall be resumed at the rate specified in the Participant's then effective payroll deduction authorization at the beginning of the next Offering Period, the Exercise Date of which falls in the following calendar year. (h) Individual bookkeeping accounts shall be maintained for each Participant. All payroll deductions from a Participant's Compensation shall be credited to such Participant's Plan Account and shall be deposited with the general funds of the Company. All payroll deductions received or held by the Company may be used by the Company for any corporate purpose. 3.3 Leave of Absence. During paid leaves of absence approved by the Company meeting the requirements of Regulation Section 1.421-7(h)(2) under the Code, a Participant may continue participation in the Plan. A participant on an unpaid leave of absence will not be permitted to make contributions to the Plan by making cash payments to the Company. - 4 - ARTICLE IV. PURCHASE OF SHARES 4.1 Purchase Price. The Purchase Price per share of the Common Stock sold to Participants hereunder shall be 85% of the Fair Market Value of such share on the Exercise Date, but in no event shall the Purchase Price per share be less than the par value per share ($0.01) of the Common Stock. 4.2 Purchase of Shares. (a) On each Exercise Date on which he or she is employed, each Participant will automatically and without any action on his or her part be deemed to have exercised his or her option to purchase at the Purchase Price the largest number of whole shares of Common Stock which can be purchased with the amount in the Participant's Plan Account. The balance, if any, remaining in the Participant's Plan Account (after exercise of his or her option) as of an Exercise Date shall be carried forward to the next Offering Period, unless the Participant has elected to withdraw from the Plan pursuant to Section 6.1 below. The Board, at its sole discretion, may increase or decrease the maximum number of shares of Common Stock that may be purchased during an Offering Period. (b) As soon as practicable following each Exercise Date, the number of shares purchased by such Participant pursuant to subsection (a) above will be delivered, in the Company's sole discretion, to either (i) the Participant or (ii) an account established in the Participant's name at a stock brokerage or other financial services firm designated by the Company. In the event the Company is required to obtain from any commission or agency authority to issue any such shares of Common Stock, the Company will seek to obtain such authority. Inability of the Company to obtain from any such commission or agency authority which counsel for the Company deems necessary for the lawful issuance of any such shares shall relieve the Company from liability to any Participant except to refund to him or her the amount withheld. 4.3 Limitations on Purchase. No Employee shall be granted an option under the Plan which permits his or her rights to purchase Common Stock under the Plan or any other employee stock purchase plan of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to accrue at a rate which exceeds $25,000 (as measured by the Fair Market Value of such Common Stock at the time the option is granted) for each calendar year such option is outstanding. For purposes of this Section 4.3, the right to purchase Common Stock under an option accrues when the option (or any portion thereof) becomes exercisable, and the right to purchase Common Stock which has accrued under one option under the Plan may not be carried over to any other option. In addition, no Participant shall be permitted to purchase during each Offering Period more than 10,000 shares of Common Stock (subject to any adjustment pursuant to Section 5.2). - 5 - 4.4 Transferability of Rights. An option granted under the Plan shall not be transferable and is exercisable only by the Participant. No option or interest or right to the option shall be available to pay off any debts, contracts or engagements of the Participant or his or her successors in interest or shall be subject to disposition by pledge, encumbrance, assignment or any other means whether such disposition be voluntary or involuntary or by operation of law by judgment, levy, attachment, garnishment or any other legal or equitable proceedings (including bankruptcy), and any attempt at disposition of the option shall have no effect. 4.5 Pro Rata Allocation of Shares. In the event that the number of shares of stock which might be purchased by all Participants in the Plan on an Exercise Date exceeds the number of shares of Common Stock available in the Plan as provided in Section 5.1, the Company shall make a pro rata allocation of the remaining shares in as uniform a manner as shall be practicable and as the Company shall determine to be equitable. Any fractional share resulting from such pro rata allocation to any Participant shall be disregarded. 4.6 Return of Cash Balance. Any cash balance remaining in a Participant's Plan Account following the close of an Offering Period shall be refunded to the Participant as soon as practicable after such Offering Period. However, if the cash to be returned to a Participant pursuant to the preceding sentence is an amount less than the amount that would have been necessary to purchase an additional whole share of Common Stock on the Exercise Date, the Company may retain such amount in the Participant's Plan Account to be applied toward the purchase of shares of Common Stock in the subsequent Offering Period. ARTICLE V. PROVISIONS RELATING TO COMMON STOCK 5.1 Common Stock Reserved. Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 5.2, the maximum number of shares of Common Stock that shall be made available for sale under this Plan shall be 1,500,000. Shares of Common Stock made available for sale under this Plan may be authorized but unissued or reacquired shares reserved for issuance under this Plan. If any option granted under the Plan shall for any reason terminate without having been exercised, the Common Stock not purchased under such right shall again become available for issuance under the Plan. 5.2 Adjustment for Changes in Common Stock. In the event that adjustments are made in the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock or the shares are exchanged for a different class of stock of the Company by reason of stock dividend, stock split or other subdivision, the Committee may make appropriate - 6 - adjustments in (a) the number and class of shares or other securities that may be reserved for purchase hereunder and (b) the Purchase Price of outstanding options. 5.3 Merger, Acquisition or Liquidation. In the event of the merger or consolidation of the Company into another corporation, the acquisition by another corporation of all or substantially all of the Company's assets or 80% or more of the Company's then outstanding voting stock or the liquidation or dissolution of the Company, the date of exercise with respect to outstanding options shall be the business day immediately preceding the effective date of such merger, consolidation, acquisition, liquidation or dissolution unless the Committee shall, in its sole discretion, provide for the assumption or substitution of such options in a manner complying with Section 424(a) of the Code. 5.4 Insufficient Shares. If the aggregate funds available for the purchase of Common Stock on any Exercise Date would cause an issuance of shares in excess of the number provided for in Section 5.1 above, (a) the Committee shall proportionately reduce the number of shares that would otherwise be purchased by each Participant in order to eliminate such excess, and (b) the Plan shall automatically terminate immediately after such Exercise Date. 5.5 Rights as Stockholders. With respect to shares of Common Stock subject to an option, a Participant shall not be deemed to be a stockholder and shall not have any of the rights or privileges of a stockholder. A Participant shall have the rights and privileges of a stockholder when, but not until, a certificate has been issued to him or her following exercise of his or her option. ARTICLE VI. TERMINATION OF PARTICIPATION 6.1 Cessation of Contributions; Voluntary Withdrawal. (a) A Participant may cease payroll deductions during an Offering Period by delivering written notice of such cessation to the Company in the manner prescribed by the Company. Upon any such cessation, the Participant may elect either to withdraw from the Plan pursuant to Section 6.1(b) or to have amounts credited to his or her Plan Account held in the Plan for the purchase of Common Stock pursuant to Section 4.2. A Participant who ceases contributions to the Plan during any Offering Period shall not be permitted to resume contributions to the Plan during that Offering Period. (b) A Participant may withdraw from the Plan at any time by written notice to the Secretary of the Company prior to the close of business on an Exercise Date or such earlier date as may be established by the Committee in its sole discretion. Within 21 days after the notice of withdrawal is delivered, the Company shall refund the entire amount, if any, in a Participant's Plan Account to him or her, at which time, the Participant's payroll deduction authorization, his or her interest in the Plan and his or her option under the Plan shall terminate. Any Eligible - 7 - Employee who withdraws from the Plan may again become a Participant in accordance with Section 3.2 above. 6.2 Termination of Eligibility. (a) If a Participant ceases to be eligible under Section 3.1 above for any reason, the amount in such Participant's Plan Account will be refunded to the Participant or his or her designated beneficiary or estate within 21 days of his or her termination of employment or other cessation of eligibility. (b) Upon payment by the Company to the Participant or his or her beneficiary or estate of the remaining balance, if any, in Participant's Plan Account, the Participant's interest in the Plan and the Participant's option under the Plan shall terminate. ARTICLE VII. GENERAL PROVISIONS 7.1 Condition of Employment. Neither the creation of the Plan nor an Employee's participation therein shall be deemed to create a contract of employment, any right of continued employment or in any way affect the right of the Company or a Designated Subsidiary to terminate an Employee at any time with or without cause. 7.2 Amendment of the Plan. (a) The Board may amend, suspend or terminate the Plan at any time and from time to time; provided, however, that without approval of the Company's stockholders given within 12 months before or after action by the Board, the Plan may not be amended to increase the maximum number of shares subject to the Plan or change the designation or class of Eligible Employees. (b) Upon termination of the Plan, the balance in each Participant's Plan Account shall be refunded within 21 days of such termination. (c) Without stockholder consent and without regard to whether any participant rights may be considered to have been "adversely affected," the Board shall be entitled to change the Offering Periods, limit the frequency and/or number of changes in the amount withheld during an Offering Period, establish the exchange ratio applicable to amounts withheld in a currency other than U.S. dollars, permit payroll withholding in excess of the amount designated by a participant in order to adjust for delays or mistakes in the Company's processing of properly completed withholding elections, establish reasonable waiting and adjustment periods and/or accounting and crediting procedures to ensure that amounts applied toward the purchase of Common Stock for each participant properly correspond with amounts withheld from the participant's Compensation, and establish such other limitations or procedures as the Administrator determines in its sole discretion advisable which are consistent with the Plan. - 8 - (d) In the event the Board determines that the ongoing operation of the Plan may result in unfavorable financial accounting consequences, the Board may, in its discretion and, to the extent necessary or desirable, modify or amend the Plan to reduce or eliminate such accounting consequence including. Such modifications or amendments shall not require stockholder approval or the consent of any Plan Participants. 7.3 Use of Funds; No Interest Paid. All funds received by the Company by reason of purchase of Common Stock under this Plan will be included in the general funds of the Company free of any trust or other restriction and may be used for any corporate purpose. No interest will be paid to any Participant or credited under the Plan. 7.4 Term; Approval by Stockholders. The Plan shall terminate on the tenth anniversary of the date of its initial approval by the stockholders of the Company, unless earlier terminated by action of the Board for any reason including, but not limited to, a change in the accounting methods that would adversely affect the Company. No option may be granted during any period of suspension of the Plan or after termination of the Plan. The Plan will be submitted for the approval of the Company's stockholders within 12 months before or after the date of the Board's initial adoption of the Plan. Options may be granted prior to such stockholder approval; provided, however, that such options shall not be exercisable prior to the time when the Plan is approved by the stockholders; provided further that if such approval has not been obtained by the end of the 12-month period following the Board's initial adoption of the Plan, all options previously granted under the Plan shall thereupon be canceled and become null and void. 7.5 Effect Upon Other Plans. The adoption of the Plan shall not affect any other compensation or incentive plans in effect for the Company or any Subsidiary. Nothing in this Plan shall be construed to limit the right of the Company or any Subsidiary (a) to establish any other forms of incentives or compensation for employees of the Company or any Subsidiary or (b) to grant or assume options otherwise than under this Plan in connection with any proper corporate purpose, including, but not by way of limitation, the grant or assumption of options in connection with the acquisition, by purchase, lease, merger, consolidation or otherwise, of the business, stock or assets of any corporation, firm or association. 7.6 Conformity to Securities Laws.

Section 4.2 Specified Employee. If at the time any distributions would otherwise be made to a Director pursuant to Section 4.1(a) the Director is a Specified Employee, the requirement of paragraph 4.1(a) shall be met only if the distributions may not be made before the date which is six months after the Director's Separation from Service (or, if earlier, the date of the Director's death).

The Board may delegate certain administrative authority to a committee or subcommittee of the Board or to one or more employees of the Company, but shall retain the ultimate responsibility for the interpretation of, and amendments to, the Plan. Members of the Board shall not be liable for any of their actions or determinations made in good faith with respect to the administration of the Plan. Except to the extent superseded by the laws of the United States, the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to its conflict of laws principles, shall govern in all matters relating to the Plan. All expenses related to plan administration shall be paid by the Company. All decisions made by the Board with respect to issues hereunder shall be final and binding on all parties. Section 5.2 Change in Capitalization of the Company. In the event of any stock dividend, stock split, combination or exchange of shares, merger, consolidation, spin-off, recapitalization or any other corporate event affecting the Common Stock or the share price of the Common Stock, the Board may, in its sole discretion, make such equitable adjustments, if any, with respect to the Directors' Accounts (including, without limitation, adjusting the number of Deferred Stock Units credited thereto and/or the kind of securities represented thereby), as the Board may deem necessary or appropriate to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under this Plan and to reflect such changes. Section 5.3 Nonassignability. Except to the extent required by law, the right of any Director or any beneficiary to any benefit or to any payment hereunder shall not be subject in any manner to attachment or other legal process for the debts of such Director or beneficiary, and any such benefit or payment shall not be subject to alienation, sale, transfer, assignment or encumbrance.

Any person who shall become an Employee during any Plan Year, and who was not an Employee of the Company on the preceding December 31, may elect, no later than thirty (30) days after the Employee becomes eligible to participate in the Plan, to 3 defer payment of all or a specified part of such Bonuses payable with respect to services rendered during the remainder of such Plan Year (and, to the extent set forth in Section 2.2, for any succeeding Plan Years until the Employee ceases to be an Employee). Any Bonuses deferred pursuant to this Paragraph shall be paid to the Employee at the time(s) and in the manner specified in Article IV hereof, as designated by the Employee. Section 2.2 Subsequent Elections. With respect to Plan Years following Plan Year 2005, if an Employee fails to submit a Deferral Election Form by December 31 of the Plan Year immediately prior to such Plan Year, the amount of the deferral election for such Plan Year shall be zero; provided, however, that, to the extent permitted by Section 409A, a Deferral Election Form may provide that that the election shall continue from Plan Year to Plan Year unless the Employee terminates it by written request delivered to the Company's Secretary prior to the commencement of the Plan Year for which the termination is first effective. Section 2.3 Deferral Election Form. The election to participate in the Plan and manner of payment shall be designated by submitting a deferral election form in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (as it may be revised from time to time, the "Deferral Election Form") to the Company's Secretary. Section 2.4 Limitations on Re-Deferrals. In the event that a Deferral Election Form permits, under a subsequent election by the Employee to delay a distribution, or to change the form of distribution, such subsequent election shall satisfy the requirements of Section 409A (including without limitation Section 409A(a)(4)(C) of the Code), and: (a) Such subsequent election may not take effect until at least twelve (12) months after the date on which the election is made; (b) In the case such subsequent election relates to a distribution or payment not described in Section 4.1(b), (c) or (f), the first payment with respect to such election may be deferred for a period of not less than five (5) years from the date such distribution or payment otherwise would have been made; and (c) In the case such subsequent election relates to a distribution or payment described in Section 4.1(d), such election may not be made less than twelve (12) months prior to the date of the first scheduled distribution or payment under Section 4.1(d).

Section 3.3 Dividends. As of the date the Company pays any dividend (whether in cash or in kind) on shares of Common Stock, each Employee's Deferred Compensation Account shall be credited with that number of Deferred Stock Units equal to the ratio of (a) the aggregate value of the dividend that would have been payable on the Deferred Stock Units held by the Employee immediately prior to such payment date had the shares of Common Stock represented by such Deferred Stock Units been outstanding as of such payment date to (b) the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock as of such date. Section 3.4 Unsecured General Creditor; Fund. Deferred Bonuses and any deemed earnings with respect thereto shall be held in the general assets of the Company and no separate fund or trust shall be created or moneys set aside on account of the Account. To the extent that any person acquires a right to receive distributions from the Company under the Plan, such right shall be no greater than the right of any unsecured general creditor of the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee, in its discretion, may elect to establish a fund (the "Fund") containing assets equal to the amounts credited to Employees' Accounts, and may elect in its discretion to designate a trustee to hold the Fund in trust; provided, however, that such Fund shall remain a general asset of the Company subject to the rights of creditors of the Company in the event of the Company's bankruptcy or insolvency as defined in any such trust. ARTICLE IV. PAYMENT OF DEFERRED COMPENSATION Section 4.1 Distributions. Subject to Sections 4.1(a)-(f) and 4.2, amounts contained in an Employee's Account shall be distributed as the Employee's election (made pursuant to Section 2.3) shall provide.

The requirement of this Section 4.1(f) shall be met only if, as determined under Treasury Regulations under Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(ii) of the Code, the amounts distributed with respect to the Unforeseeable Emergency do not exceed the amounts necessary to satisfy such Unforeseeable Emergency plus amounts necessary to pay taxes reasonably anticipated as a result of the distribution, after taking into account the extent to which such Unforeseeable Emergency is or may be relieved through reimbursement or compensation by insurance or otherwise or by liquidation of the Employee's assets (to the extent the liquidation of such assets would not itself cause severe financial hardship). Section 4.2 Specified Employee. If at the time any distributions would otherwise be made to an Employee pursuant to Section 4.1(a) the Employee is a Specified Employee, the requirement of paragraph 4.1(a) shall be met only if the distributions may not be made before the date which is six months after the Employee's Separation from Service (or, if earlier, the date of the Employee's death). Section 4.3 Form of Distribution. All distributions from the Plan shall be made in the form of whole shares of Common Stock with fractional shares paid in cash. Section 4.4 No Acceleration. The time or schedule of any distribution of any shares of Common Stock shall not be accelerated, except as otherwise permitted under Section 409A (including without limitation Section 409A(a)(3) of the Code). Section 4.5 Beneficiary Designation. Each Employee shall have the right to designate a beneficiary who is to succeed to his or her right to receive payments hereunder in the event of death. Except as may otherwise be provided in any Deferral Election Form, in the event of the Employee's death, the balance of the amounts contained in the Employee's Account shall be paid, in accordance with Section 4.1, to the Employee's or former Employee's beneficiary (or if no beneficiary has been designated, to his estate) in full on the first day of the Plan Year following the Plan Year in which he or she dies.

ADMINISTRATION; AMENDMENT Section 5.1 Administration. The Plan shall be administered by the Committee. The Committee may delegate certain administrative authority to a subcommittee of the Committee or to one or more employees of the Company, but shall retain the ultimate responsibility for the interpretation of, and amendments to, the Plan. Members of the Committee shall not be liable for any of their actions or determinations made in good faith with respect to 6 the administration of the Plan. Except to the extent superseded by the laws of the United States, the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to its conflict of laws principles, shall govern in all matters relating to the Plan. All expenses related to plan administration shall be paid by the Company. All decisions made by the Committee with respect to issues hereunder shall be final and binding on all parties. Section 5.2 Change in Capitalization of the Company. In the event of any stock dividend, stock split, combination or exchange of shares, merger, consolidation, spin-off, recapitalization or any other corporate event affecting the Common Stock or the share price of the Common Stock, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, make such equitable adjustments, if any, with respect to the Employees' Accounts (including, without limitation, adjusting the number of Deferred Stock Units credited thereto and/or the kind of securities represented thereby), as the Committee may deem necessary or appropriate to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under this Plan and to reflect such changes. Section 5.3 Nonassignability. Except to the extent required by law, the right of any Employee or any beneficiary to any benefit or to any payment hereunder shall not be subject in any manner to attachment or other legal process for the debts of such Employee or beneficiary, and any such benefit or payment shall not be subject to alienation, sale, transfer, assignment or encumbrance. Section 5.4 Amendment. The Plan may be amended, suspended or terminated in whole or in part from time to time by the Committee except that, except as set forth in Section 5.5, no amendment, suspension, or termination shall apply to the payment to any Employee or beneficiary of a deceased Employee of any amounts previously credited to a Employee's Account.

The Primary Employer is of the opinion that the plan should be changed. It believes that the best means to accomplish these changes is to completely restate the plan's terms, provisions and conditions. The restatement, effective September 1, 2004, is set forth in this document and is substituted in lieu of the prior document with the exception of the Economic Growth and Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2001 (EGTRRA) good faith compliance amendment and any model amendment. Such amendment(s) shall continue to apply to this restated plan until such provisions are integrated into the plan or such amendment(s) are superseded by another amendment. The restated plan continues to be for the exclusive benefit of employees of the Employer. All persons covered under the plan on August 31, 2004, shall continue to be covered under the restated plan with no loss of benefits. It is intended that the plan, as restated, shall qualify as a profit sharing plan under the internal Revenue Code of 1986, including any later amendments to the Code.

For purposes of the EXCESS AMOUNTS SECTION at Article III, the Employer may elect to use an alternative nondiscriminatory definition of Compensation in accordance with the regulations under Code Section 414(s). For Plan Years beginning on or after January 1, 1994, the annual Compensation of each Participant taken into account for determining all benefits provided under the Plan for any determination period shall not exceed $150,000, as adjusted for increases in the cost-of-living in accordance with Code Section 401(a)(17)(B). The cost-of-living adjustment in effect for a calendar year applies to any determination period beginning in such calendar year. If a determination period consists of fewer than 12 months, the annual limit is an amount equal to the otherwise applicable annual limit multiplied by a fraction. The numerator of the fraction is the number of months in the short determination period, and the denominator of the fraction is 12. If Compensation for any prior determination period is taken into account in determining a Participant's contributions or benefits for the current Plan Year, the Compensation for such prior determination period is subject to the applicable annual compensation limit in effect for that determination period. For this purpose, in determining contributions or benefits in Plan Years beginning on or after January 1, 1994, the annual compensation limit in effect for determination periods beginning before that date is $150,000.

The $80,000 amount is adjusted at the same time and in the same manner as under Code Section 415(d), except that the base period is the calendar quarter ending September 30, 1996. For this purpose the applicable year of the plan for which a determination is being made is called a determination year and the preceding 12-month period is called a look-back year. If the Employer makes a calendar year date election, the look-back year shall be the calendar year beginning with or within the look-back year. The Plan may not use such election to determine whether Employees are Highly Compensated Employees on account of being a 5-percant owner. In determining who is a Highly Compensated Employee, the Employer makes a top-paid group election. The effect of this electron is that an Employee (who is not a 5-percent owner at any time during the determination year or the look-back year) with compensation in excess of $80,000 (as adjusted) for the look-back year is a Highly Compensated Employee only if the Employee was in the top-paid group for the look-back year. In determining who is a Highly Compensated Employee, the Employer does not make a calendar year data election. Calendar year data elections and top-paid group elections, once made, apply for all subsequent years unless changed by the Employer. If the Employer makes one election, the Employer is not required to make the other. If both elections ere made, the look-back year in determining the top-paid group must be the calendar year beginning with or within the look-back year. These elections must apply consistently to the determination years of all plans maintained by the Employer which reference the highly compensated employee definition in Code Section 414(q), except as provided in Internal Revenue Service Notice 97-45 (or superseding guidance). The consistency requirement will not apply to RESTATEMENT SEPTEMBER 1, 2004 11 ARTICLE I (4-49179)-1 determination years beginning with or within the 1997 calendar year, and for determination years beginning on or after January 1, 1998 and before January 1, 2000, satisfaction of the consistency requirement is determined without regard to any nonretirement plans of the Employer. The determination of who is a highly compensated former Employee is based on the rules applicable to determining Highly Compensated Employee status as in effect for that determination year, in accordance with section 1.414(q)-1T, A-4 of the temporary Income Tax Regulations and Internal Revenue Service Notice 97-45. In determining whether an Employee is a Highly Compensated Employee for years beginning in 1997, the amendments to Code Section 414(q) stated above are treated as having been in effect for years beginning in 1996. The determination of who is a Highly Compensated Employee, including the determinations of the number and identity of Employees in the top-paid group, the compensation that is considered, and the identity of the 5-percent owners, shall be made in accordance with Code Section 414(q) and the regulations thereunder.

For purposes of this subparagraph (b), a payment shall be deemed to be made by, or due from the Employer, regardless of whether such payment is made by, or due from the Employer, directly or indirectly through, among others, a trust fund or insurer, to which the Employer contributes or pays premiums and regardless of whether contributions made or due to the trust fund, insurer or other entity are for the benefit of particular employees or are on behalf of a group of employees in the aggregate. RESTATEMENT SEPTEMBER 1, 2004 12 ARTICLE I (4-48179)-1 (c) Each hour for which back pay, irrespective of mitigation of damages, is either awarded or agreed to by the Employer. The same Hours-of-Service shall not be credited both under subparagraph (a) or subparagraph (b) above (as the case may be) and under this subparagraph (c). Crediting of Hours-of-Service for back pay awarded or agreed to with respect to periods described in subparagraph (b) above will be subject to the limitations set forth in that subparagraph.

Hours-of-Service shall also be credited for any individual who is considered an employee for purposes of this Plan pursuant to Code Section 414(n) or (o) and the regulations thereunder. Solely for purposes of determining whether a one-year break in service has occurred for eligibility or vesting purposes, during a Parental Absence an Employee shall be credited with the Hours-of-Service which otherwise would normally have been credited to the Employee but for such absence, or in any case in which such hours cannot be determined, eight Hours-of-Service per day of such absence.

The percentage of Elective Deferral Contributions matched, If any, shall be a percentage as determined by the Employer. Matching Contributions are calculated based on Elective Deferral Contributions and Compensation for the pay period. Matching Contributions shall be made for all persons who were Active Participants at any time during that pay period. (2) The Employer may make additional Matching Contributions if the total Matching Contributions determined below are greater than the amount of Matching Contributions determined in (1) above for the Plan Year. Additional Matching Contributions, If any, shall be made for all persons who were Active Participants at any time during the Plan Year. RESTATEMENT SEPTEMBER 1, 2004 24 ARTICLE III (4-48179)-1 Total Matching Contributions for the Plan Year shall be a percentage of Elective Deferral Contributions and shall be calculated based on Elective Deferral Contributions and Compensation for the Plan Year. The percentage shall be determined by the Employer. The percentage must be equal to or greater than the percentage determined in (1) above, The amount of additional Matching Contributions, if any, shall be determined by subtracting the Matching Contributions determined in (1) above for the Plan Year from total Matching Contributions for the Plan Year. Any percentage determined by the Employer shall apply to all eligible persons for the entire Plan Year. Matching Contributions are subject to the Vesting Percentage. (c) Qualified Nonelective Contributions may be made for each Plan Year in an amount determined by the Employer. Qualified Nonelective Contributions are 100% vested and subject to the distribution restrictions of Code Section 401(k) when made. No Participant shall be permitted to have Elective Deferral Contributions, as defined in the EXCESS AMOUNTS SECTION of this article, made under this Plan, or any other qualified plan maintained by the Employer, during any taxable year, in excess of the dollar limitation contained in Code Section 402(g) in effect at the beginning of such taxable year. An elective deferral agreement (or change thereto) must be made in such manner and in accordance with such rules as the Employer may prescribe (including by means of voice response or other electronic system under circumstances the Employer permits) and may not be made retroactively. Employer Contributions are allocated according to the provisions of the ALLOCATION SECTION of this article. A portion of the Plan assets resulting from Employer Contributions (but not more than the original amount of those Contributions) may be returned if the Employer Contributions are made because of a mistake of fact or are more than the amount deductible under Code Section 404 (excluding any amount which is not deductible because the Plan is disqualified). The amount involved must be returned to the Employer within one year after the date the Employer Contributions are made by mistake of fact or the date the deduction is disallowed, whichever applies. Except as provided under this paragraph and Article VIII, the assets of the Plan shall never be used for the benefit of the Employer and are held for the exclusive purpose of providing benefits to Participants and their Beneficiaries and for defraying reasonable expenses of administering the Plan. SECTION 3.01A--ROLLOVER CONTRIBUTIONS. A Rollover Contribution may be made by an Eligible Employee or an Inactive Participant if the following conditions are met: (a) The Contribution is of amounts distributed from a plan that satisfies the requirements of Code Section 401 (a) or from a "conduit" individual retirement account described in Code Section RESTATEMENT SEPTEMBER 1, 2004 25 ARTICLE III (4-48179)-1 408(d)(3)(A). In the case of an Inactive Participant, the Contribution must be of an amount distributed from another plan of the Employer, or a plan of a Controlled Group member, that satisfies the requirements of Code Section 401 (a). (b) The Contribution is of amounts that the Code permits to be transferred to a plan that meets the requirements of Code Section 401 (a). (c) The Contribution is made in the form of a direct rollover under Code Section 401(a)(31) or is a rollover made under Code Section 402(c) or 408(d)(3)(A) within 60 days after the Eligible Employee or Inactive Participant receives the distribution. (d) The eligible Employee or Inactive Participant furnishes evidence satisfactory to the Plan Administrator that the proposed rollover meets conditions (a),(b), and (c) above. A Rollover Contribution shall be allowed in cash only and must be made according to procedures set up by the Plan Administrator. An outstanding loan made under the transfer plan may be accepted if the loan could have originated under this plan on the date of the rollover, (except for a different fixed interest rate than would have been used under this Plan), and the loan is not in default. If the Eligible Employee is not an Active Participant when the Rollover Contribution is made, he shall be deemed to be an Active Participant only for the purpose of investment and distribution of the Rollover Contribution. Employer Contributions shall not be made for or allocated to the Eligible Employee until the time he meets all of the requirements to become an Active Participant. Rollover Contributions made by an Eligible Employee or an Inactive Participant shall be credited to his Account. The part of the Participant's Account resulting from Rollover Contributions is fully (100%) vested and nonforfeitable at all times. A separate accounting record shall be maintained for that part of his Rollover Contributions consisting of voluntary contributions which were deducted from the Participant's gross income for Federal income tax purposes. SECTION 3.02--FORFEITURES. The Nonvested Account of a Participant shall be forfeited as of the earlier of the following: (a) the date the Participant dies (if prior to such date he had ceased to be an Employee), or (b) the Participant's Forfeiture Date. All or a portion of a Participant's Nonvested Account shall be forfeited before such earlier date if, after he ceases to be an Employee, he receives, or is deemed to receive, a distribution of his entire Vested Account or a distribution of his Vested Account derived from Employer Contributions which were not 100% vested when made, under the RETIREMENT BENEFITS SECTION of Article V, the VESTED BENEFITS SECTION of Article V, or the SMALL AMOUNTS SECTION of Article X. The forfeiture shall occur as of the date the Participant receives, or is deemed to receive, the distribution. If a Participant receives, or is deemed to receive, his entire Vested Account, his entire Nonvested Account shall be forfeited. If a Participant receives a distribution of his Vested Account from Employer Contributions which were not 100% vested when made, but less than his RESTATEMENT SEPTEMBER 1, 2004 26 ARTICLE III (4-48179)-1 entire Vested Account from such Contributions, the amount to be forfeited shall be determined by multiplying his Nonvested Account from such Contributions by a fraction. The numerator of the fraction is the amount of the distribution derived from Employer Contributions which were not 100% vested when made and the denominator of the fraction is his entire Vested Account derived from such Contributions on the date of distribution. A Forfeiture shall also occur as provided in the EXCESS AMOUNTS SECTION of this article. Forfeitures shall be determined at least once during each Plan Year. Forfeitures may first be used to pay administrative expenses. Forfeitures of Matching Contributions which relate to excess amounts as provided in the EXCESS AMOUNTS SECTION of this article, which have not been used to pay administrative expanses, shall be applied to reduce the earliest Employer Contributions made after the Forfeitures are determined. Any other Forfeitures which have not been used to pay administrative expenses shall be applied to reduce the earliest Employer Contributions made after the Forfeitures are determined. Upon their application to reduce Employer Contributions, Forfeitures shall be deemed to be Employer Contributions, If a Participant again becomes an Eligible Employee after receiving a distribution which caused all or a portion of his Nonvested Account to be forfeited, he shall have the right to repay to the Plan the entire amount of the distribution he received (excluding any amount of such distribution resulting from Contributions which were 100% vested when made). The repayment must be made in a single sum (repayment in installments is not permitted) before the earlier of the date five years after the date he again becomes an Eligible Employee or the end of the first period of five consecutive Vesting Breaks in Service which begin after the date of the distribution. If the Participant makes the repayment above, the Plan Administrator shall restore to his Account an amount equal to his Nonvested Account which was forfeited on the date of distribution, unadjusted for any investment gains or losses. If no amount is to be repaid because the Participant was deemed to have received a distribution, or only received a distribution of Contributions which were 100% vested when made, and he again performs an Hour-of-Service as an Eligible Employee within the repayment period, the Plan Administrator shall restore the Participant's Account as if he had made a required repayment on the date he performed such Hour-of-Service, Restoration of the Participant's Account shall include restoration of all Code Section 411(d)(6) protected benefits with respect to that restored Account, according to applicable Treasury regulations. Provided, however, the Plan Administrator shall not restore the Nonvested Account if (i) a Forfeiture Date has occurred after the date of the distribution and on or before the date of repayment and (ii) that Forfeiture Date would result in a complete forfeiture of the amount the Plan Administrator would otherwise restore. The Plan Administrator shall restore the Participant's Account by the close of the Plan Year following the Plan Year in which repayment is made, Permissible sources for the restoration of the Participant's Account are Forfeitures or special Employer Contributions. Such special Employer Contributions shall be made without regard to profits. The repaid and restored amounts are not included in the Participant's Annual Additions, as defined in the CONTRIBUTION LIMITATION SECTION of this article. SECTION 3.03--ALLOCATION. A person meets the allocation requirements of this section if he was an Active Participant at any time during the Plan Year and has at least 1,000 Hours-of-Ssrvice during the latest Accrual Computation Period ending on or before the last day of the Plan Year. A person shall also meet the requirements of this section if RESTATEMENT SEPTEMBER 1, 2004 27 ARTICLE III (4-48179)-1 he was an Active Participant at any time during the Plan Year and retires, becomes Totally and Permanently Disabled, or dies. Elective Deferral Contributions shall be allocated to Participants for whom such Contributions are made under the EMPLOYER CONTRIBUTIONS SECTION of this article. Such Contributions shall be allocated when made and credited to the Participant's Account. Matching Contributions shall be allocated to the persons for whom such Contributions are made under the EMPLOYER CONTRIBUTIONS SECTION of this article. Such Contributions calculated based on Elective Deferral Contributions and Compensation for the pay period shall be allocated when made and credited to the person's Account. Such Contributions calculated based on Elective Deferral Contributions and Compensation for the Plan Year shall be allocated as of the last day of the Plan Year and shall be credited to the person's Account. Qualified Nonelective Contributions shall be allocated as of the last day of the Plan Year to each person who meets the allocation requirements of this section. Such Qualified Nonelective Contributions shall be allocated only to Nonhighly Compensated Employees. The amount allocated to such person for the Plan Year shall be equal to such Qualified Nonelective Contributions multiplied by the ratio of such person's Annual Compensation for the Plan Year to the total Annual Compensation of all such persons. This amount shall be credited to the person's Account. If Leased Employees are Eligible Employees, in determining the amount of Employer Contributions allocated to a person who is a Leased Employee, contributions provided by the leasing organization which are attributable to services such Leased Employee performs for the Employer shall be treated as provided by the Employer. Those contributions shall not be duplicated under this Plan. SECTION 3.04--CONTRIBUTION LIMITATION. (a) Definitions. For the purpose of determining the contribution limitation set forth in this section, the following terms are defined. ANNUAL ADDITIONS means the sum of the following amounts credited to a Participant's account for the Limitation Year: (1) employer contributions; (2) employee contributions; and (3) forfeitures, Annual Additions to a defined contribution plan shall also include the following: (4) amounts allocated, after March 31, 1984, to an Individual medical account, as defined in Code Section 415(1)(2), which are part of a pension or annuity plan maintained by the Employer, (5) amounts derived from contributions paid or accrued after December 31, 1985, in taxable years ending after such date, which are attributable to post-retirement medical benefits, RESTATEMENT SEPTEMBER 1, 2004 28 ARTICLE III (4-48179)-1 allocated to the separate account of a key employee, as defined in Code Section 419A(d)(3), under a welfare benefit fund, as defined in Code Section 419(e), maintained by the Employer: end (6) allocations under a simplified employee pension. For this purpose, any Excess Amount applied under (e) and (k) below in the Limitation Year to reduce Employer Contributions shall be considered Annual Additions for such Limitation Year. Compensation means wages within the meaning of Code Section 3401 (a) and all other payments of compensation to an Employee by the Employer (in the course of the Employer's trade or business) for which the Employer is required to furnish the Employee a written statement under Code Sections 6041 (d), 6051(a)(3), and 6052. Compensation must be determined without regard to any rules under Code Section 3401 (a) that limit the remuneration included in wages based on the nature or location of the employment or the services performed (such as the exception for agricultural labor in Code Section 3401(a)(2)). The amount reported in the "Wages, Tips and Other Compensation" box on Form W-2 satisfies this definition. For any Self-employed Individual, Compensation shall mean Earned Income. For purposes of applying the limitations of this section, Compensation for a Limitation Year is the Compensation actually paid or made available in gross income during such Limitation Year. For Limitation Years beginning after December 31, 1997, for purposes of applying the limitations of this section, Compensation paid or made available during such Limitation Year shall include any elective deferral (as defined in Code Section 402(g)(3)), and any amount which is contributed or deferred by the Employer at the election of the Employee and which is not includible in the gross income of the Employee by reason of Code Section 125, 132(f)(4), or 467. DEFINED CONTRIBUTION DOLLAR LIMITATION means, for Limitation Years beginning after December 31, 1994, $30,000, as adjusted under Code Section 415(d). EMPLOYER means the employer that adopts this Plan, and all members of a controlled group of corporations (as defined in Code Section 414(b) as modified by Code Section 415(h)), all commonly controlled trades or businesses (as defined in Code Section 415(c) as modified by Code Section 415(h)) or affiliated service groups (as defined in Code Section 414(m)) of which the adopting employer is a part, and any other entity required to be aggregated with the employer pursuant to regulations under Code Section 414(o). EXCESS AMOUNT means the excess of the Participant's Annual Additions for the Limitation Year over the Maximum Permissible Amount. LIMITATION YEAR means the consecutive 12-month period ending on the last day of each Plan Year, including corresponding consecutive 12-month periods before January 1, 2001. If the Limitation Year is other than the calendar year, execution of this Plan (or any amendment to this Plan changing the Limitation Year) constitutes the Employer's adoption of a written resolution electing the Limitation Year. If the Limitation Year is amended to a different consecutive 12-month period, RESTATEMENT SEPTEMBER 1, 2004 29 ARTICLE III (4-48179)-1 the new Limitation Year must begin on a date within the Limitation Year in which the amendment is made. Maximum Permissible Amount means the maximum Annual Addition that may be contributed or allocated to a Participant's Account under the Plan for any Limitation Year. This amount shall not exceed the lesser of: (1) The Defined Contribution Dollar Limitation, or (2) 25 percent of the Participant's Compensation for the Limitation Year. The compensation limitation referred to in (2) shall not apply to any contribution for medical benefits (within the meaning of Code Section 401 (h) or 419A(f)(2)) which is otherwise treated as an Annual Addition under Code Section 415(l)(1) or 419A(d)(2). If a short Limitation Year is created because of an amendment changing the Limitation Year to a different consecutive 12-month period, the Maximum Permissible Amount will not exceed the Defined Contribution Dollar Limitation multiplied by the following fraction: Number of months in the short Limitation Year --------------------------------------------- 12 (b) If the Participant does not participate in, and has never participated in, another qualified plan maintained by the Employer or a welfare benefit fund, as defined in Code Section 419(e), maintained by the Employer, or an individual medical account, as defined in Code Section 415(l)(2), maintained by the Employer, or a simplified employee pension, as defined in Code Section 408(k), maintained by the Employer, which provides an Annual Addition, the amount of Annual Additions which may be credited to the Participant's Account for any Limitation Year shall not exceed the lesser of the Maximum Permissible Amount or any other limitation contained in this Plan. If the Employer Contribution that would otherwise be contributed or allocated to the Participant's Account would cause the Annual Additions for the Limitation Year to exceed the Maximum Permissible Amount, the amount contributed or allocated shall be reduced so that the Annual Additions for the Limitation Year will equal the Maximum Permissible Amount. (c) Prior to determining the Participant's actual Compensation for the Limitation Year, the Employer may determine the Maximum Permissible Amount for a Participant on the basis of a reasonable estimation of the Participant's Compensation for the Limitation Year, uniformly determined for all Participants similarly situated. (d) As soon as is administratively feasible after the end of the Limitation Year, the Maximum Permissible Amount for the Limitation Year will be determined on the basis of the Participant's actual Compensation for the Limitation Year. (e) If a reasonable error in estimating a Participant's Compensation for the Limitation Year, a reasonable error in determining the amount of elective deferrals (within the meaning of Code Section 402(g)(3)) that may be made with respect to any individual under the limits of Code Section 415, or under other facts and circumstances allowed by the Internal Revenue Service, there is an Excess Amount, the excess will be disposed of as follows: RESTATEMENT SEPTEMBER 1, 2004 30 ARTICLE III (4-48179)-1 (1) Any Elective Deferral Contributions (plus attributable earnings), to the extent they would reduce the Excess Amount, will be distributed to the Participant. Concurrently with the distribution of such Elective Deferrel Contributions, any Matching Contributions which relate to any Elective Deferral Contributions distributed in the preceding sentence, to the extent such application would reduce the Excess Amount, will be applied as provided in (2) or (3) below: (2) If after the application of (1) above an Excess Amount still exists, and the Participant is covered by the Plan at the end of the Limitation Year, the Excess Amount in the Participant's Account will be used to reduce Employer Contributions for such Participant in the next Limitation Year, end each succeeding Limitation Year if necessary. (3) If after the application of (1) above an Excess Amount still exists, and the Participant is not covered by the Plan at the end of the Limitation Year, the Excess Amount will be held unallocated in a suspense account. The suspense account will be applied to reduce future Employer Contributions for all remaining Participants in the next Limitation Year, and each succeeding Limitation Year if necessary. (4) If a suspense account is in existence at any time during a Limitation Year pursuant to this (e), it will participate in the allocation of investment gains or losses. If a suspense account is in existence at any time during a particular Limitation Year, all amounts in the suspense account must be allocated and reallocated to Participant's Accounts before any Employer Contributions may be made to the Plan for that Limitation Year. Excess Amounts held in a suspense account may not be distributed to Participants or former Participants. (f) This (f) applies if, in addition to this Plan, the Participant is covered under another qualified defined contribution plan maintained by the Employer, a welfare benefit fund maintained by the Employer, an individual medical account maintained by the Employer, or a simplified employee pension maintained by the Employer which provides an Annual Addition during any Limitation Year. The Annual Additions which may be credited to a Participant's Account under this Plan for any such Limitation Year will not exceed the Maximum Permissible Amount, reduced by the Annual Additions credited to a Participant's account under the other qualified defined contribution plans, welfare benefit funds, individual medical accounts, and simplified employee pensions for the same Limitation Year. If the Annual Additions with respect to the Participant under other qualified defined contribution plans, welfare benefit funds, individual medical accounts, and simplified employee pensions maintained by the Employer are less than the Maximum Permissible Amount, and the Employer Contribution that would otherwise be contributed or allocated to the Participant's Account under this Plan would cause the Annual Additions for the Limitation Year to exceed this limitation, the amount contributed or allocated will be reduced so that the Annual Additions under all such plans and funds for the Limitation Year will equal the Maximum Permissible Amount. If the Annual Additions with respect to the Participant under such other qualified defined contribution plans, welfare benefit funds, individual medical accounts, and simplified employee pensions in the aggregate are equal to or greater than the Maximum Permissible Amount, no amount will be contributed or allocated to the Participant's Account under this Plan for the Limitation Year. RESTATEMENT SEPTEMBER 1, 2004 31 ARTICLE III (4-48179)-1 (g) Prior to determining the Participant's actual Compensation for the Limitation Year, the Employer may determine the Maximum Permissible Amount for a Participant in the manner described in (c) above. (h) As soon as administratively feasible after the end of the Limitation Year, the Maximum Permissible Amount for the Limitation Year will be determined on the basis of the Participant's actual Compensation for the Limitation Year. (i) If pursuant to (h) above or as a result of the allocation of forfeitures or as a result of a reasonable error in determining the amount of elective deferrals (within the meaning of Code Section 402(g)(3)) that may be made with respect to any individual under the limits of Code Section 415, a Participant's Annual Additions under this Plan and such other plans would result in an Excess Amount for a Limitation Year, the Excess Amount will be deemed to consist of the Annual Additions last allocated, except that Annual Additions attributable to a simplified employee pension will be deemed to have been allocated first, followed by Annual Additions to a welfare benefit fund or individual medical account, regardless of the actual allocation date. (j) If an Excess Amount was allocated to a Participant on an allocation date of this Plan which coincides with an allocation date of another plan, the Excess Amount attributed to this Plan will be the product of: (1) the total Excess Amount allocated as of such date, times (2) the ratio of (i) the Annual Addition allocated to the Participant for the Limitation Year as of such date under this Plan to (ii) the total Annual Additions allocated to the Participant for the Limitation Year as of such date under this and all other qualified defined contribution plans. (k) Any Excess Amount attributed to this Plan will be disposed of in the manner described in (e) above. SECTION 3.05--EXCESS AMOUNTS. (a) Definitions. For the purposes of this section, the following terms are defined: ACP means the average (expressed as a percentage) of the Contribution Percentages of the Eligible Participants in a group. ADP means the average (expressed as a percentage) of the Deferral Percentages of the Eligible Participants in a group. AGGREGATE LIMIT means the greater of: (1) The sum of: (i) 125 percent of the greater of the ADP of the Nonhighly Compensated Employees for the prior Plan Year or the ACP of the Nonhighly Compensated Employees under the RESTATEMENT SEPTEMBER 1, 2004 32 ARTICLE III (4-48179)-1 plan subject to Code Section 401(m) for the Plan Year beginning with or within the prior Plan Year of the cash or deferred arrangement, and (ii) the lesser of 200 percent or 2 percent plus the lesser of such ADP or ACP. (2) The sum of: (i) 125 percent of the lesser of the ADP of the Nonhighly Compensated Employees for the prior Plan Year or the ACP of the Nonhighly Compensated Employees under the plan subject to Code Section 401(m) for the Plan Year beginning with or within the prior Plan Year of the cash or deferred arrangement, and (ii) the lesser of 200 percent or 2 percent plus the greater Of such ADP or ACP. If the Employer has elected to use the current year testing method, then, In calculating the Aggregate Limit for a particular Plan Year, the Nonhighly Compensated Employees' ADP and ACP for that Plan Year, instead of the prior Plan Year, is used. CONTRIBUTION PERCENTAGE means the ratio (expressed as a percentage) of the Eligible Participant's Contribution Percentage Amounts to the Eligible Participant's Compensation for the Plan Year (whether or not the Eligible Participant was an Eligible Participant for the entire Plan Year). In modification of the foregoing. Compensation shall be limited to the Compensation received white an Eligible Participant. For an Eligible Participant for whom such Contribution Percentage Amounts for the Plan Year are zero, the percentage is zero. CONTRIBUTION PERCENTAGE Amounts means the sum of the Participant Contributions and Matching Contributions (that are not Qualified Matching Contributions taken into account for purposes of the ADP Test) made under the Plan on behalf of the Eligible Participant for the Plan Year. Such Contribution Percentage Amounts shall not include Matching Contributions that are forfeited either to correct Excess Aggregate Contributions or because the Contributions to which they relate are Excess Elective Deferrals, Excess Contributions, or Excess Aggregate Contributions. Under such rules as the Secretary of the Treasury shall prescribe, in determining the Contribution Percentage the Employer may elect to include Qualified Nonelective Contributions under this Plan which were not used in computing the Deferral Percentage. The Employer may also elect to use Elective Deferral Contributions in computing the Contribution Percentage so long as the ADP Test is met before the Elective Deferral Contributions are used in the ACP Test and continues to be met following the exclusion of those Elective Deferral Contributions that are used to meet the ACP Test. DEFERRAL PERCENTAGE means the ratio (expressed as a percentage) of Elective Deferral Contributions under this Plan on behalf of the Eligible Participant for the Plan Year to the Eligible Participant's Compensation for the Plan Year (whether or not the Eligible Participant was an Eligible Participant for the entire Plan Year). In modification of the foregoing. Compensation shall be limited to the Compensation received while an Eligible Participant. The Elective Deferral Contributions used to determine the Deferral Percentage shall include Excess Elective Deferrals (other than Excess Elective Deferrals of Nonhighly Compensated Employees that arise solely from Elective Deferral Contributions made under this Plan or any other plans of the Employer or a Controlled Group member), but shall exclude Elective Deferral Contributions that are used in computing the RESTATEMENT SEPTEMBER 1, 2004 33 ARTICLE III (4-48179)-1 Contribution Percentage (provided the ADR Test is satisfied both with and without exclusion of these Elective Deferral Contributions). Under such rules as the Secretary of the Treasury shall prescribe, the Employer may elect to include Qualified Nonelective Contributions and Qualified Matching Contributions under this Plan in computing the Deferral Percentage. For an Eligible Participant for whom such contributions on his behalf for the Plan Year are zero, the percentage is zero. ELECTIVE DEFERRAL Contributions means any employer contributions made to a plan at the election of a participant, in lieu of cash compensation, and shall include contributions made pursuant to a salary reduction agreement or other deferral mechanism. With respect to any taxable year, a participant's Elective Deferral Contributions are the sum of all employer contributions made on behalf of such participant pursuant to an election to defer under any qualified cash or deferred arrangement described in Code Section 401(k), any salary reduction simplified employee pension plan described in Code Section 408(k)(6), any SIMPLE IRA plan described in Code Section 408(p), any eligible deferred compensation plan under Code Section 457, any plan described under Code Section 501(c)(18), and any employer contributions made on behalf of a participant for the purchase of an annuity contract under Code Section 403(b) pursuant to a salary reduction agreement. Elective Deferral Contributions shall not include any deferrals properly distributed as excess annual additions. ELIGIBLE PARTICIPANT means, for purposes of determining the Deferral Percentage, any Employee who is otherwise entitled to make Elective Deferral Contributions under the terms of the Plan for the Plan Year. Eligible Participant means, for purposes of determining the Contribution Percentage, any Employes who is eligible (i) to make a Participant Contribution or an Elective Deferral Contribution (if the Employer takes such contributions Into account in the calculation of the Contribution Percentage), or (ii) to receive a Matching Contribution (including forfeitures) or a Qualified Matching Contribution. If a Participant Contribution is required as a condition of participation in the Plan, any Employee who would be a Participant in the Plan if such Employee made such a contribution shall be treated as an Eligible Participant on behalf of whom no Participant Contributions are made. EXCESS AGGREGATE Contributions means, with respect to any Plan Year, the excess of: (1) The aggregate Contribution Percentage Amounts taken into account in computing the numerator of the Contribution Percentage actually made on behalf of Highly Compensated Employees for such Plan Year, over (2) The maximum Contribution Percentage Amounts permitted by the ACP Test (determined by hypothetically reducing contributions made on behalf of Highly Compensated Employees in order of their Contribution Percentages beginning with the highest of such percentages). Such determination shall be made after first determining Excess Elective Deferrals and then determining Excess Contributions. EXCESS CONTRIBUTIONS means, with respect to any Plan Year, the excess of; (1) The aggregate amount of employer contributions actually taken into account in computing the Deferral Percentage of Highly Compensated Employees for such Plan Year, over RESTATEMENT SEPTEMBER 1, 2004 34 ARTICLE III (4-48179)-1 (2) The maximum amount of such contributions permitted by the ADP Test (determined by hypothetically reducing contributions made on behalf of Highly Compensated Employees in the order of the Deferral Percentages, beginning with the highest of such percentages). Such determination shall be made after first determining Excess Elective Deferrals. EXCESS ELECTIVE DEFERRALS means those Elective Deferral Contributions that are includible In a Participant's gross income under Code Section 402(g) to the extent such Participant's Elective Deferral Contributions for a taxable year exceed the dollar limitation under such Code section. Excess Elective Deferrals shall be treated as Annual Additions, as defined in the CONTRIBUTION LIMITATION SECTION of this article, under the Plan, unless such amounts are distributed no later than the first April 15 following the close of the Participant's taxable year. MATCHING CONTRIBUTIONS means employer contributions made to this or any other defined contribution plan, or to a contract described in Code Section 403(b), on behalf of a participant on account of a Participant Contribution made by such participant, or on account of a participant's Elective Deferral Contributions, under a plan maintained by the Employer or a Controlled Group member. PARTICIPANT CONTRIBUTIONS means contributions made to the plan by or on behalf of a participant that are included In the participant's gross income in the year In which made and that are maintained under a separate account to which the earnings and losses are allocated. QUALIFIED MATCHING CONTRIBUTIONS means Matching Contributions which are subject to the distribution and nonforfeitability requirements under Code Section 401(k) when made. QUALIFIED NONELECTIVE CONTRIBUTIONS means any employer contributions (other than Matching Contributions) which an employee may not elect to have paid to him in cash instead of being contributed to the plan and which are subject to the distribution and nonforfeitability requirements under Code Section 401(k) when made. (b) Excess Elective Deferrals. A Participant may assign to this Plan any Excess Elective Deferrals made during a taxable year of the Participant by notifying the Plan Administrator in writing on or before the first following March 1 of the amount of the Excess Elective Deferrals to be assigned to the Plan. A Participant is deemed to notify the Plan Administrator of any Excess Elective Deferrals that arise by taking into account only those Elective Deferral Contributions made to this Plan and any other plan of the Employer or a Controlled Group member, The Participant's claim for Excess Elective Deferrals shall be accompanied by the Participant's written statement that if such amounts are not distributed, such Excess Elective Deferrals will exceed the limit Imposed on the Participant by Code Section 402(g) for the year in which the deferral occurred. The Excess Elective Deferrals assigned to this Plan cannot exceed the Elective Deferral Contributions allocated under this Plan for such taxable year. Notwithstanding any other provisions of the Plan, Elective Deferral Contributions in an amount equal to the Excess Elective Deferrals assigned to this Plan, plus any income and minus any loss allocable thereto, shall be distributed no later than April 15 to any Participant to whose Account Excess Elective Deferrals were assigned for the preceding year and who claims Excess Elective Deferrals for such taxable year. RESTATEMENT SEPTEMBER 1, 2004 35 ARTICLE III (4-48179)-1 The Excess Elective Deferrals shall be adjusted for income or loss. The income or loss allocable to such Excess Elective Deferrals shall be equal to the income or loss allocable to the Participant's Elective Deferral Contributions for the taxable year in which the excess occurred multiplied by a fraction. The numerator of the fraction is the Excess Elective Deferrals. The denominator of the fraction is the closing balance without regard to any income or loss occurring during such taxable year (as of the end of such taxable year) of the Participant's Account resulting from Elective Deferral Contributions. Any Matching Contributions which were based on the Elective Deferral Contributions which are distributed as Excess Elective Deferrals, plus any income and minus any loss allocable thereto, shall be forfeited. (c) ADP Test. As of the end of each Plan Year after Excess Elective Deferrals have been determined, the Plan must satisfy the ADP Test. The ADP Test shall be satisfied using the prior year testing method, unless the Employer has elected to use the current year testing method. (1) Prior Year Testing Method. The ADP for a Plan Year for Eligible Participants who are Highly Compensated Employees for each Plan Year and the prior year's ADP for Eligible Participants who were Nonhighly Compensated Employees for the prior Plan Year must satisfy one of the following tests: (i) The ADP for a Plan Year for Eligible Participants who are Highly Compensated Employees for the Plan Year shall not exceed the prior year's ADP for Eligible Participants who were Nonhighly Compensated Employees for the prior Plan Year multiplied by 1.25; or (ii) The ADP for a Plan Year for Eligible Participants who are Highly Compensated Employees for the Plan Year; A. shall not exceed the prior year's ADP for Eligible Participants who were Nonhighly Compensated Employees for the prior Plan Year multiplied by 2, and B. the difference between such ADPs ia not more than 2. If this is not a successor plan, for the first Plan Year the Plan permits any Participant to make Elective Deferral Contributions, for purposes of the foregoing tests, the prior year's Nonhighly Compensated Employees' ADP shall be 3 percent, unless the Employer has elected to use the Plan Year's ADP for these Eligible Participants. (2) Current Year Testing Method. The ADP for a Plan Year for Eligible Participants who are Highly Compensated Employees for each Plan Year and the ADP for Eligible Participants who are Nonhighly Compensated Employees for the Plan Year must satisfy one of the following tests: (i) The ADP for a Plan Year for Eligible Participants who are Highly Compensated Employees for the Plan Year shall not exceed the ADP for Eligible Participants who are Nonhighly Compensated Employees for the Plan Year multiplied by 1.25; or RESTATEMENT SEPTEMBER 1, 2004 36 ARTICLE III (4-48179)-1 (ii) The ADP for a Plan Year for Eligible Participants who are Highly Compensated Employees for the Plan Year: A. shall not exceed the ADP for Eligible Participants who are Nonhighly Compensated Employees for the Plan Year multiplied by 2, and B. the difference between such ADP's is not more than 2. If the Employer has elected to use the current year testing method, that election cannot be changed unless (i) the Plan has been using the current year testing method for the preceding five Plan Years, or if less, the number of Plan Years the Plan has been in existence; or (ii) the Plan otherwise meets one of the conditions specified in Internal Revenue Service Notice 98-1 (or superseding guidance) for changing from the current year testing method. A Participant is a Highly Compensated Employee for a particular Plan Year if he meets the definition of a Highly Compensated Employee in effect for that Plan Year. Similarly, a Participant is a Nonhighly Compensated Employee for a particular Plan Year if he does not meet the definition of a Highly Compensated Employee in effect for that Plan Year. The Deferral Percentage for any Eligible Participant who is a Highly Compensated Employee for the Plan Year and who is eligible to have Elective Deferral Contributions (and Qualified Nonelective Contributions or Qualified Matching Contributions, or both, if treated as Elective Deferral Contributions for purposes of the ADP Test) allocated to his account under two or more arrangements described in Code Section 401(k) that are maintained by the Employer or a Controlled Group member shall be determined as if such Elective Deferral Contributions (and, if applicable, such Qualified Nonelective Contributions or Qualified Matching Contributions, or both) were made under a single arrangement. If a Highly Compensated Employee participates in two or more cash or deferred arrangements that have different plan years, all cash or deferred arrangements ending with or within the same calendar year shall be treated as a single arrangement. The foregoing notwithstanding, certain plans shall be treated as separate if mandatorily disaggregated under the regulations of Code Section 401(k). In the event this Plan satisfies the requirements of Code Section 401(k), 401(a)(4), or 410(b) only if aggregated with one or more other plans, or if one or more other plans satisfy the requirements of such Code sections only if aggregated with this Plan, than this section shall be applied by determining the Deferral Percentage of Employees as if all such plans were a single plan. Any adjustments to the Nonhighly Compensated Employee ADP for the prior year shall be made in accordance with Internal Revenue Service Notice 98-1 (or superseding guidance), unless the Employer has elected to use the current year testing method. Plans may be aggregated in order to satisfy Code Section 401(k) only if they have the same plan year and use the same testing method for the ADP Test. For purposes of the ADP Test, Elective Deferral Contributions, Qualified Nonelective Contributions, and Qualified Matching Contributions must be made before the end of the 12-month period immediately following the Plan Year to which the contributions relate. RESTATEMENT SEPTEMBER 1, 2004 37 ARTICLE III (4-48179)-1 The Employer shall maintain records sufficient to demonstrate satisfaction of the ADP Test and the amount of Qualified Nonelective Contributions or Qualified Matching Contributions, or both, used in such test. If the Plan Administrator should determine during the Plan Year that the ADP Test is not being met, the Plan Administrator may limit the amount of future Elective Deferral Contributions of the Highly Compensated Employees. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Plan, Excess Contributions, plus any income and minus any loss allocable thereto, shall be distributed no later than the last day of each Plan Year to Participants to whose Accounts such Excess Contributions were allocated for the preceding Plan Year. Excess Contributions are allocated to the Highly Compensated Employees with the largest amounts of employer contributions taken into account in calculating the ADP Test for the year in which the excess arose, beginning with the Highly Compensated Employee with the largest amount of such employer contributions and continuing in descending order until all of the Excess Contributions have been allocated. For purposes of the preceding sentence, the "largest amount" is determined after distribution of any Excess Contributions. If such excess amounts are distributed more than 2 1/2 months after the last day of the Plan Year in which such excess amounts arose, a 10 percent excise tax shall be imposed on the employer maintaining the plan with respect to such amounts. Excess Contributions shall be treated as Annual Additions, as defined in the CONTRIBUTION LIMITATION SECTION of this article. The Excess Contributions shall be adjusted for income or loss. The income or loss allocable to such Excess Contributions allocated to each Participant shall be equal to the income or loss allocable to the Participant's Elective Deferral Contributions (and, if applicable, Qualified Nonelective Contributions or Qualified Matching Contributions, or both) for the Plan Year in which the excess occurred multiplied by a fraction. The numerator of the fraction is the Excess Contributions. The denominator of the fraction is the closing balance without regard to any income or loss occurring during such Plan Year (as of the end of such Plan Year) of the Participant's Account resulting from Elective Deferral Contributions (and Qualified Nonelective Contributions or Qualified Matching Contributions/ or both, if such contributions are included in the ADP Test). Excess Contributions allocated to a Participant shall be distributed from the Participant's Account resulting from Elective Deferral Contributions. If such Excess Contributions exceed the balance in the Participant's Account resulting from Elective Deferral Contributions, the balance shall be distributed from the Participant's Account resulting from Qualified Matching Contributions (if applicable) and Qualified Nonelective Contributions, respectively. Any Matching Contributions which were based on the Elective Deferral Contributions which are distributed as Excess Contributions, plus any income and minus any loss allocable thereto, shall be forfeited. (d) ACP Test. As of the end of each Plan Year, the Plan must satisfy the ACP Test. The ACP Test shall be satisfied using the prior year testing method, unless the Employer has elected to use the current year testing method. RESTATEMENT SEPTEMBER 1, 2004 38 ARTICLE III (4-48179)-1 (1) Prior Year Testing Method. The ACP for a Plan Year for Eligible Participants who are Highly Compensated Employees for each Plan Year and the prior year's ACP for Eligible Participants who were Nonhighly Compensated Employees for the prior Plan Year must satisfy one of the following tests: (i) The ACP for the Plan Year for Eligible Participants who are Highly Compensated Employees for the Plan Year shall not exceed the prior year's ACP for Eligible Participants who were Nonhighly Compensated Employees for the prior Plan Year multiplied by 1.25; or (ii) The ACP for a Plan Year for Eligible Participants who are Highly Compensated Employees for the plan Year: A. shall not exceed the prior year's ACP for Eligible Participants who were Nonhighly Compensated Employees for the prior Plan Year multiplied by 2, and B. the difference between such ACPs is not more than 2. If this is not a successor plan, for the first Plan Year the Plan permits any Participant to make Participant Contributions, provides for Matching Contributions, or both, for purposes of the foregoing tests, the prior year's Nonhighly Compensated Employees' ACP shall be 3 percent, unless the Employer has elected to use the Plan Year's ACP for these Eligible Participants. (2) Current Year Testing Method. The ACP for a Plan Year for Eligible Participants who are Highly Compensated Employees for each Plan Year and the ACP for Eligible Participants who are Nonhighly Compensated Employees for the Plan Year must satisfy one of the following tests: (i) The ACP for a Plan Year for Eligible Participants who are Highly Compensated Employees for the Plan Year shall not exceed the ACP for Eligible Participants who are Nonhighly Compensated Employees for the Plan Year multiplied by 1.25; or (ii) The ACP for a Plan Year for Eligible Participants who are Highly Compensated Employees for the plan Year: A. shall not exceed the ACP for Eligible Participants who are Nonhighly Compensated Employees for the Plan Year multiplied by 2, and B. the difference between such ACPs is not more than 2. If the Employer has elected to use the current year testing method, that election cannot be changed unless (i) the Plan has been using the current year testing method for the preceding five Plan Years, or if less, the number of Plan Years the Plan has been in existence; or (ii) the Plan otherwise meets one of the conditions specified in Internal Revenue Service Notice 98-1 for superseding guidance) for changing from the current year testing method. RESTATEMENT SEPTEMBER 1, 2004 39 ARTICLE III (4-48179)-1 A Participant is a Highly Compensated Employee for a particular Plan Year if he meets the definition of a Highly Compensated Employee in effect for that Plan Year. Similarly, a Participant is a Nonhighly Compensated Employee for a particular Plan Year if he does not meet the definition of a Highly Compensated Employee in effect for that Plan Year. Multiple Use. If one or more Highly Compensated Employees participate in both a cash or deferred arrangement and a plan subject to the ACP Test maintained by the Employer or a Controlled Group member, and the sum of the ADP and ACP of those Highly Compensated Employees subject to either or both tests exceeds the Aggregate Limit, then the Contribution Percentage of those Highly Compensated Employees who also participate in a cash or deferred arrangement will be reduced in the manner described below for allocating Excess Aggregate Contributions so that the limit is not exceeded. The amount by which each Highly Compensated Employee's Contribution Percentage is reduced shall be treated as an Excess Aggregate Contribution. The ADP and ACP of the Highly Compensated Employees are determined after any corrections required to meet the ADP Test and ACP Test and are deemed to be the maximum permitted under such tests for the Plan Year. Multiple use does not occur if either the ADP or ACP of the Highly Compensated Employees does not exceed 1.25 multiplied by the ADP and ACP, respectively, of the Nonhighly Compensated Employees. The Contribution Percentage for any Eligible Participant who is a Highly Compensated Employee for the Plan Year and who is eligible to have Contribution Percentage Amounts allocated to his account under two or more plans described in Code Section 401(a) or arrangements described in Code Section 401(k) that are maintained by the Employer or a Controlled Group member shall be determined as if the total of such Contribution percentage Amounts was made under each plan. If a Highly Compensated Employee participates in two or more cash or deferred arrangements that have different plan years, all cash or deferred arrangements ending with or within the same calendar year shall be treated as a single arrangement. The foregoing notwithstanding, certain plans shall be treated as separate if mandatorily disaggregated under the regulations of Code Section 401(m). In the event this Plan satisfies the requirements of Code Section 401(m), 401(a)(4), or 410(b) only if aggregated with one or more other plans, or if one or more other plans satisfy the requirements of such Code sections only if aggregated with this Plan, then this section shall be applied by determining the Contribution Percentage of Employees as if all such plans were a single plan. Any adjustments to the Nonhighly Compensated Employee ACP for the prior year shall be made in accordance with Internal Revenue Service Notice 98-1 (or superseding guidance), unless the Employer has elected to use the current year testing method, Plans may be aggregated in order to satisfy Code Section 401(m) only if they have the same plan year and use the same testing method for the ACP Test. For purposes of the ACP Test, Participant Contributions are considered to have been made in the Plan Year in which contributed to the Plan. Matching Contributions and Qualified Nonelective Contributions will be considered to have been made for a Plan Year if made no later than the end of the 12-month period beginning on the day after the close of the Plan Year. The Employer shall maintain records sufficient to demonstrate satisfaction of the ACP Test and the amount of Qualified Nonelective Contributions or Qualified Matching Contributions, or both, used in such test. RESTATEMENT SEPTEMBER 1, 2004 40 ARTICLE III (4-48179)-1 Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Plan, Excess Aggregate Contributions, plus any income and minus any loss allocable thereto, shall be forfeited, if not vested, or distributed, if vested, no later than the last day of each Plan Year to Participants to whose Accounts such Excess Aggregate Contributions were allocated for the preceding Plan Year. Excess Aggregate Contributions are allocated to the Highly Compensated Employees with the largest Contribution Percentage Amounts taken into account in calculating the ACP Test for the year in which the excess arose, beginning with the Highly Compensated Employee with the largest amount of such Contribution Percentage Amounts and continuing in descending order until all of the Excess Aggregate Contributions have been allocated. For purposes of the preceding sentence, the "largest amount" is determined after distribution of any Excess Aggregate Contributions. If such Excess Aggregate Contributions are distributed more than 2 1/2 months after the last day of the Plan Year In which such excess amounts arose, a 10 percent excise tax shall be imposed on the employer maintaining the plan with respect to such amounts. Excess Aggregate Contributions shall be treated as Annual Additions, as defined in the CONTRIBUTION LIMITATION SECTION of this article. The Excess Aggregate Contributions shall be adjusted for income or loss. The income or loss allocable to such Excess Aggregate Contributions allocated to each Participant shall be equal to the income or loss allocable to the Participant's Contribution Percentage Amounts for the Plan Year in which the excess occurred multiplied by a fraction. The numerator of the fraction is the Excess Aggregate Contributions. The denominator of the fraction is the closing balance without regard to any income or loss occurring during such Plan Year (as of the end of such Plan Year) of the Participant's Account resulting from Contribution Percentage Amounts. Excess Aggregate Contributions allocated to a Participant shall be distributed from the Participant's Account resulting from Participant Contributions that are not required as a condition of employment or participation or for obtaining additional benefits from Employer Contributions. If such Excess Aggregate Contributions exceed the balance in the Participant's Account resulting from such Participant's Contributions, the balance shall be forfeited, if not vested, or distributed, if vested, on a pro-rata basis from the Participant's Account resulting from Contribution Percentage Amounts. (e) Employer Elections. The Employer has not made an election to use the current year testing method. RESTATEMENT SEPTEMBER 1, 2004 41 ARTICLE III (4-48179)-1 ARTICLE IV INVESTMENT OF CONTRIBUTIONS SECTION 4.01--INVESTMENT AND TIMING OF CONTRIBUTIONS. The handling of Contributions is governed by the provisions of the Trust Agreement, the Annuity Contract, and any other funding arrangement in which the Plan Fund is or may be held or invested. To the extent permitted by the Trust Agreement, Annuity Contract, or other funding arrangement, the parties named below shall direct the Contributions to the guaranteed benefit policy portion of the Annuity Contract, any of the investment options available under the Annuity Contract, or any of the investment vehicles available under the Trust Agreement and may request the transfer of amounts resulting from those Contributions between such investment options and investment vehicles of the transfer of amounts between the guaranteed benefit policy portion of the Annuity Contract and such investment options and investment vehicles. A Participant may not direct the Trustee or Insurer to invest the Participant's Account in collectibles. Collectibles mean any work of art, rug or antique, metal or gem, stamp or coin, alcoholic beverage, or other tangible personal property specified by the Secretary of the Treasury. However, for tax years beginning after December 31, 1997, certain coins and bullion as provided in Code Section 408(m)(3) shall not be considered collectibles. To the extent that a Participant who has investment direction fails to give timely direction, the Primary Employer shall direct the investment of his Account. If the Primary Employer has investment direction, such Account shall be invested ratably in the guaranteed benefit policy portion of the Annuity Contract, the investment options available under the Annuity Contract, or the investment vehicles available under the Trust Agreement in the same manner as the Accounts of all other Participants who do not direct their investments. The Primary Employer shall have investment direction for amounts which have not been allocated to Participants. To the extent an investment is no longer available, the Primary Employer may require that amounts currently held in such investment be reinvested in other investments. At least annually, the Named Fiduciary shall review all pertinent Employee information and Plan data in order to establish the funding policy of the Plan and to determine appropriate methods of carrying out the Plan's objectives. The Named Fiduciary shall inform the Trustee and any Investment Manager of the Plan's short-term and long-term financial needs so the investment policy can be coordinated with the Plan's financial requirements. (a) Employer Contributions other than Elective Deferral Contributions: The Participant shall direct the investment of such Employer Contributions and transfer of amounts resulting from those Contributions. (b) Elective Deferral Contributions: The Participant shall direct the Investment of Elective Deferral Contributions and transfer of amounts resulting from those Contributions. (c) Rollover Contributions; The Participant shall direct the investment of Rollover Contributions and transfer of amounts resulting from those Contributions. However, the Named Fiduciary may delegate to the Investment Manager investment discretion for Contributions and amounts which are not subject to Participant direction. RESTATEMENT SEPTEMBER 1, 2004 42 ARTICLE IV (4-48179)-1 The Employer shall pay to the Insurer or Trustee, as applicable, the Elective Deferral Contributions and Qualified Nonelective Contributions for each Plan Year not later than the end of the 12-month period immediately following the Plan Year for which they are deemed to be paid. All Contributions are forwarded by the Employer to the Trustee to be deposited in the Trust Fund or to the Insurer to be deposited under the Annuity Contract, as applicable. Contributions that are accumulated through payroll deduction shall be paid to the Trustee or Insurer, as applicable, by the earlier of (i) the date the Contributions can reasonably be segregated from the Employer's assets, or (ii) the 15th business day of the month following the month in which the Contributions would otherwise have been paid in cash to the Participant. RESTATEMENT SEPTEMBER 1, 2004 43 ARTICLE IV (4-48179)-1 ARTICLE V BENEFITS SECTION 5.01--RETIREMENT BENEFITS. On a Participant's Retirement Date, his Vested Account shall be distributed to him according to the distribution of benefits provisions of Article VI and the provisions of the SMALL AMOUNTS SECTION of Article X. SECTION 5.02--DEATH BENEFITS. If a Participant dies before his Annuity Starting Date, his Vested Account shall be distributed according to the distribution of benefits provisions of Article VI and the provisions of the SMALL AMOUNTS SECTION of Article X. SECTION 5.03--VESTED BENEFITS. If an Inactive Participant's Vested Account is not payable under the SMALL AMOUNTS SECTION of Article X, he may elect, but is not required, to receive a distribution of his Vested Account after he ceases to be an Employee. The Participant's election shall be subject to his spouse's consent as provided in the ELECTION PROCEDURES SECTION of Article VI. A distribution under this paragraph shall be a retirement benefit and shall be distributed to the Participant according to the distribution of benefits provisions of Article VI. A Participant may not elect to receive a distribution under the provisions of this section after he again becomes an Employee until he subsequently ceases to be an Employee and meets the requirements of this section. If an Inactive Participant does not receive an earlier distribution, upon his Retirement Date or death, his Vested Account shall be distributed according to the provisions of the RETIREMENT BENEFITS SECTION or the DEATH BENEFITS SECTION OF Article V. The Nonvested Account of an Inactive Participant who has ceased to be an Employee shall remain a part of his Account until it becomes a Forfeiture. However, if he again becomes an Employee so that his Vesting Percentage can increase, the Nonvested Account may become a part of his Vested Account. SECTION 5.04--WHEN BENEFITS START. (a) Unless otherwise elected, benefits shall begin before the 60th day following the close of the Plan Year in which the latest date below occurs: (1) The date the Participant attains age 65 (or Normal Retirement Age, if earlier). (2) The 10th anniversary of the Participant's Entry Date. RESTATEMENT SEPTEMBER 1, 2004 44 ARTICLE V (4-48179)-1 (3) The date the Participant ceases to be an Employee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the failure of a Participant and spouse to consent to a distribution while a benefit is immediately distributable, within the meaning of the ELECTION PROCEDURES SECTION of Article VI, shall be deemed to be an election to defer the start of benefits sufficient to satisfy this section. The Participant may elect to have his benefits begin after the latest date for beginning benefits described above, subject to the following provisions of this section. The Participant shall make the election in writing. Such election must be made before his Normal Retirement Date or the date he ceases to be an Employee, if later. The election must describe the form of distribution and the date benefits will begin. The Participant shall not elect a date for beginning benefits or a form of distribution that would result in a benefit payable when he dies which would be more than incidental within the meaning of governmental regulations. Benefits shall begin on an earlier date if otherwise provided in the Plan. For example, the Participant's Retirement Date or Required Beginning Date, as defined in the DEFINITIONS SECTION of Article VII. (b) The Participant's Vested Account which results from Elective Deferral Contributions and Qualified Nonelective Contributions may not be distributed to a Participant or to his Beneficiary (or Beneficiaries) in accordance with the Participant's or Beneficiary's (or Beneficiaries') election, earlier than separation from service, death, or disability. Such amount may also be distributed upon: (1) Termination of the Plan, as permitted in Article VIII. (2) The disposition by the Employer, if the Employer is a corporation, to an unrelated corporation of substantially all of the assets, within the meaning of Code Section 409(d)(2), used in a trade or business of the Employer if the Employer continues to maintain the Plan after the disposition, but only with respect to Employees who continue employment with the corporation acquiring such assets. (3) The disposition by the Employer, if the Employer is a corporation, to an unrelated entity of the Employer's interest in a subsidiary, within the meaning of Code Section 409(d)(3), if the Employer continues to maintain the Plan, but only with respect to Employees who continue employment with such subsidiary. (4) The attainment of age 59 1/2 as permitted in the WITHDRAWAL BENEFITS SECTION of this article. (5) The hardship of the Participant as permitted in the WITHDRAWAL BENEFITS SECTION of this article. All distributions that may be made pursuant to one or more of the foregoing distributable events will be a retirement benefit, and shall be distributed to the Participant according to the distribution of benefit provisions of Article VI. In addition, distributions that are triggered by (1), (2) and (3) RESTATEMENT SEPTEMBER 1, 2004 45 ARTICLE V (4-48179)-1 above must be made in a lump sum. A lump sum shall include a distribution of an annuity contract. SECTION 5.05--WITHDRAWAL BENEFITS. A Participant may withdraw any part of his Vested Account resulting from Rollover Contributions. A Participant may make such a withdrawal at any time. A Participant who has attained age 59 1/2 may withdraw any part of his Vested Account which results from the following Contributions: Elective Deferral Contributions Matching Contributions Qualified Nonelective Contributions A Participant may make such a withdrawal at any time. A Participant may withdraw any part of his Vested Account which results from the following Contributions: Elective Deferral Contributions Matching Contributions in the event of hardship due to an immediate and heavy financial need. Withdrawals from the Participant's Account resulting from Elective Deferral Contributions shall be limited to the amount of the Participant's Elective Deferral Contributions. Immediate and heavy financial need shall be limited to: (i) expenses incurred of necessary for medical care, described in Code Section 213(d), of the Participant, the Participant's spouse, or any dependents of the Participant (as defined in Code Section 152); (ii) purchase (excluding mortgage payments) of a principal residence for the Participant; (iii) payment of tuition, related educational fees, and room and board expenses, for the next 12 months of post-secondary education for the Participant, his spouse, children, or dependents; (iv) the need to prevent the eviction of the Participant from his principal residence or foreclosure on the mortgage of the Participant's principal residence; or (v) any other distribution which is deemed by the Commissioner of Internal Revenue to be made on account of immediate and heavy financial need as provided in Treasury regulations. No withdrawal shall be allowed which is not necessary to satisfy such immediate and heavy financial need. Such withdrawal shall be deemed necessary only if all of the following requirements are met: (i) the distribution is not in excess of the amount of the immediate and heavy financial need (including amounts necessary to pay any Federal, state, or local income taxes or penalties reasonably anticipated to result from the distribution); (ii) the Participant has obtained all distributions, other than hardship distributions, and all nontaxable loans currently available under all plans maintained by the Employer; (iii) the Plan, and all other plans maintained by the Employer, provide that the Participant's elective contributions and participant contributions will be suspended for at least 12 months after receipt of the hardship distribution; and (iv) the Plan, and all other plans maintained by the Employer, provide that the Participant may not make elective contributions for the Participant's taxable year immediately following the taxable year of the hardship distribution in excess of the applicable limit under Code Section 402(g) for such next taxable year less the amount of such Participant's elective contributions for the taxable year of the hardship distribution. The Plan will suspend elective contributions and participant contributions for 12 months and limit elective deferrals as RESTATEMENT SEPTEMBER 1, 2004 46 ARTICLE V (4-48179)-1 provided in the preceding sentence. A Participant shall not cease to be an Eligible Participant, as defined in the EXCESS AMOUNTS SECTION of Article III, merely because his elective contributions or participant contributions are suspended. A request for withdrawal shall be made in such manner and in accordance with such rules as the Employer will prescribe for this purpose (including by means of voice response or other electronic means under circumstances the Employer permits). Withdrawals shall be a retirement benefit and shall be distributed to the Participant according to the distribution of benefits provisions of Article VI. A forfeiture shall not occur solely as a result of a withdrawal, SECTION 5.06--LOANS TO PARTICIPANTS. Loans shall be made available to all Participants on a reasonably equivalent basis. For purposes of this section, and unless otherwise specified, Participant means any Participant or Beneficiary who is a party-in-interest as defined in ERISA. Loans shall not be made to Highly Compensated Employees in an amount greater than the amount made available to other Participants. No loans will be made to any shareholder-employee or Owner-employee. For purposes of this requirement, a shareholder-employee means an employee or officer of an electing small business (Subchapter S) corporation who owns (or is considered as owning within the meaning of Code Section 318(a)(1)), on any day during the taxable year of such corporation, more than 5 percent of the outstanding stock of the corporation. A loan to a Participant shall be a Participant-directed investment of his Account. The loan is a Trust Fund investment but no Account other than the borrowing Participant's Account shall share in the interest paid on the loan or bear any expense or loss incurred because of the loan. The number of outstanding loans shall be limited to one. No more than one loan shall be approved for any Participant in any 12-month period. The minimum amount of any loan shall be $1,000. Loans must be adequately secured and bear a reasonable rate of interest. The amount of the loan shall not exceed the maximum amount that may be treated as a loan under Code Section 72(p) (rather than a distribution) to the Participant and shall be equal to the lesser of (a) or (b) below: (a) $50,000, reduced by the highest outstanding loan balance of loans during the one-year period ending on the day before the new loan is made. (b) The greater of (1) or (2), reduced by (3) below: (1) One-half of the Participant's Vested Account. (2) $ 10,000. (3) Any outstanding loan balance on the date the new loan is made. RESTATEMENT SEPTEMBER 1, 2004 47 ARTICLE V (4-48179)-1 For purposes of this maximum, a Participant's Vested Account does not include any accumulated deductible employee contributions, as defined in Code Section 72(o)(5)(B), and all qualified employer plans, as defined in Code Section 72(p)(4), of the Employer and any Controlled Group member shall be treated as one plan. The foregoing notwithstanding, the amount of such loan shall not exceed 50 percent Of the amount of the Participant's Vested Account. For purposes of this maximum, a Participant's Vested Account does not include any accumulated deductible employee contributions, as defined in Code Section 72(o)(5)(8). No collateral other than a portion of the Participant's Vested Account (as limited above) shall be accepted. The Loan Administrator shall determine if the collateral is adequate for the amount of the loan requested. A Participant must obtain the consent of his spouse, if any, to the use of the Vested Account as security for the loan. Spousal consent shall be obtained no earlier than the beginning of the 90-day period that ends on the date on which the loan to be so secured is made. The consent must be in writing, must acknowledge the effect of the loan, and must be witnessed by a plan representative or a notary public. Such consent shall thereafter be binding with respect to the consenting spouse or any subsequent spouse with respect to that loan. A new consent shall be required if the Vested Account is used for collateral upon renegotiation, extension, renewal, or other revision of the loan. No consent shall be required if subparagraph (d) of the ELECTION PROCEDURES SECTION of Article VI applies. If a valid spousal consent has been obtained in accordance with the above, or spousal consent is not required, then, notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan, the portion of the Participant's Vested Account used as a security interest held by the Plan by reason of a loan outstanding to the Participant shall be taken into account for purposes of determining the amount of the Vested Account payable at the time of the death or distribution, but only if the reduction is used as repayment of the loan. If spousal consent is required and less than 100 percent of the Participant's Vested Account (determined without regard to the preceding sentence) is payable to the surviving spouse, then the Vested Account shall be adjusted by first reducing the Vested Account by the amount of the security used as repayment of the loan, and then determining the benefit payable to the surviving spouse. Each loan shall bear a reasonable fixed rate of interest to be determined by the Loan Administrator. In determining the interest rate, the Loan Administrator shall take into consideration fixed interest rates currently being charged by commercial lenders for loans of comparable risk on similar terms and for similar durations, so that the interest will provide for a return commensurate with rates currently charged by commercial lenders for loans made under similar circumstances. The Loan Administrator shall not discriminate among Participants in the matter of interest rates; but loans granted at different times may bear different interest rates in accordance with the current appropriate standards. The loan shall by its terms require that repayment (principal and interest) be amortized in level payments, not less frequently than quarterly, over a period not extending beyond five years from the date of the loan. If the loan is used to acquire a dwelling unit, which within a reasonable time (determined at the time the loan is made) will be used as the principal residence of the Participant, the repayment period may extend beyond five years from the date of the loan. The period of repayment for any loan shall be arrived at by mutual agreement between the Loan Administrator and the Participant and if the loan is for a principal residence, shall not be made for a period longer than the repayment period consistent with commercial practices. The Participant shall make an application for a loan in such manner and in accordance with such rules as the Employer shall prescribe for this purpose (including by means of voice response or other electronic means under circumstances the Employer permits). The application must specify the amount and duration requested. RESTATEMENT SEPTEMBER 1, 2004 48 ARTICLE V (4-48179)-1 Information contained in the application for the loan concerning the income, liabilities, and assets of the Participant will be evaluated to determine whether there is a reasonable expectation that the Participant will be able to satisfy payments on the loan as due. Additionally, the Loan Administrator will pursue any appropriate further investigations concerning the creditworthiness and credit history of the Participant to determine whether a loan should be approved. Each loan shall be fully documented in the form of a promissory note signed by the Participant for the face amount of the loan, together with interest determined as specified above. There will be an assignment of collateral to the Plan executed at the time the loan is made. In those cases where repayment through payroll deduction is available, installments are so payable, and a payroll deduction agreement shall be executed by the Participant at the time the loan is made. Loan repayments that are accumulated through payroll deduction shall be paid to the Trustee by the earlier of (i) the date the loan repayments can reasonably be segregated from the Employer's assets, or (ii) the 15th business day of the month following the month in which such amounts would otherwise have been paid in cash to the Participant. Where payroll deduction is not available, payments in cash are to be timely made. Any payment that is not by payroll deduction shall be made payable to the Employer or the Trustee, as specified in the promissory note, and delivered to the Loan Administrator, including prepayments, service fees and penalties, If any, and other amounts due under the note. The Loan Administrator shall deposit such amounts into the Plan as soon as administratively practicable after they are received, but in no event later than the 15th business day of the month after they are received. The promissory note may provide for reasonable late payment penalties and service fees. Any penalties or service fees shall be applied to all Participants in a nondiscriminatory manner. If the promissory note so provides, such amounts may be assessed and collected from the Account of the Participant as part of the loan balance. Each loan may be paid prior to maturity, in part or in full, without penalty or service fee, except as may be set out in the promissory note. The Plan shall suspend loan payments for a period not exceeding one year during which an approved unpaid leave of absence occurs other than a military leave of absence. The Loan Administrator shall provide the Participant a written explanation of the effect of the suspension of payments upon his loan. If a Participant separates from service (or takes a leave of absence) from the Employer because of service in the military and does not receive a distribution of his Vested Account, the Plan shall suspend loan payments until the Participant's completion of military service or until the Participant's fifth anniversary of commencement of military service, if earlier, as permitted under Code Section 414(u), The Loan Administrator shall provide the Participant a written explanation of the effect of his military service upon his loan. If any payment of principal and interest or any portion thereof, remains unpaid for more than 90 days after due, the loan shall be in default. For purposes of Code Section 72(p), the Participant shall then be treated as having received a deemed distribution regardless of whether or not a distributable event has occurred. RESTATEMENT SEPTEMBER 1, 2004 49 ARTICLE V (4-48179)-1 Upon default, the Plan has the right to pursue any remedy available by law to satisfy the amount due, along with accrued interest, including the right to enforce its claim against the security pledged and execute upon the collateral as allowed by law. The entire principal balance whether or not otherwise then due, along with accrued interest, shall become immediately due and payable without demand or notice, and subject to collection or satisfaction by any lawful means, including specifically, but not limited to, the right to enforce the claim against the security pledged and to execute upon the collateral as allowed by law. In the event of default, foreclosure on the note end attachment of security or use of amounts pledged to satisfy the amount then due shall not occur until a distributable event occurs in accordance with the Plan, and shall not occur to an extent greater than the amount then available upon any distributable event which has occurred under the Plan. All reasonable costs and expenses, including but not limited to attorney's fees, incurred by the Plan in connection with any default or in any proceeding to enforce any provision of a promissory note or instrument by which a promissory note for a Participant loan is secured, shall be assessed and collected from the Account of the Participant as part of the loan balance. If payroll deduction is being utilized, in the event that a Participant's available payroll deduction amounts in any given month are insufficient to satisfy the total amount, due, there will be an increase in the amount taken subsequently, sufficient to make up the amount that is then due. If any amount remains past due more than 90 days, the entire principal amount, whether or not otherwise then due, along with interest then accrued, shall become due and payable, as above. If the Participant ceases to be an Employee, the balance of the outstanding loan becomes due and payable, and the Participant's Vested Account will be used as available for distribution(s) to pay the outstanding loan, unless the Participant elects a direct rollover of the loan to another plan. The Participant's Vested Account will not be used to pay any amount due under the outstanding loan before the date, which is the later of 30 days after: the date he ceased to be an Employee; or the date of the direct rollover to another plan. The Participant may elect to repay the outstanding loan with interest on the day of repayment. If no distributable event has occurred under the Plan at the time that the Participant's Vested Account would otherwise be used under this provision to pay any amount due under the outstanding loan, this will not occur until the time, or in excess of the extent to which, a distributable event occurs under the Plan. An outstanding loan will become due and payable in full 60 days after a Participant ceases to be an Employee and a party-in-interest as defined in ERISA or after complete termination of the Plan.

The Plan specifically permits distributions to an Alternate Payee under a qualified domestic relations order as defined in Code Section 414(p), at any time, irrespective of whether the Participant has attained his earliest retirement age, as defined in Code Section 414(p), under the Plan. A distribution to an Alternate Payee before the Participant has attained his earliest retirement age is available only if the order specifies that distribution shall be made prior to the earliest retirement age or allows the Alternate Payee to elect a distribution prior to the earliest retirement age. RESTATEMENT SEPTEMBER 1, 2004 50 ARTICLE V (4-48179)-1 Nothing in this section shall permit a Participant to receive a distribution at a time otherwise not permitted under the Plan nor shall it permit the Alternate Payee to receive a form of payment not permitted under the Plan. The benefit payable to an Alternate Payee shall be subject to the provisions of the SMALL AMOUNTS SECTION of Article X if the value of the benefit does not exceed $5,000. The Plan Administrator shall establish reasonable procedures to determine the qualified status of a domestic relations order. Upon receiving a domestic relations order, the Plan Administrator shall promptly notify the Participant and the Alternate Payee named in the order, in writing, of the receipt of the order and the Plan's procedures for determining the qualified status of the order. Within a reasonable period of time after receiving the domestic relations order, the Plan Administrator shall determine the qualified status of the order and shall notify the Participant and each Alternate Payee, in writing, of its determination.

If any portion of the Participant's Vested Account is payable during the period the Plan Administrator is making its determination of the qualified status of the domestic relations order, a separate accounting shall be made of the amount payable. If the Plan Administrator determines the order is a qualified domestic relations order within 18 months of the date amounts are first payable following receipt of the order, the payable amounts Shall be distributed in accordance with the order. If the Plan Administrator does not make its determination of the qualified status of the order within the 18-month determination period, the payable amounts shall be distributed in the manner the Plan would distribute if the order did not exist and the order shall apply prospectively if the Plan Administrator later determines the order is a qualified domestic relations order. The Plan shall make payments or distributions required under this section by separate benefit checks or other separate distribution to the Alternate Payee(s).

The Claimant (or his authorized representative) may review pertinent Plan documents.

RESTATEMENT SEPTEMBER 1, 2004 67 ARTICLE IX (4-48179)-1 ARTICLE X GENERAL PROVISIONS SECTION 10.01--AMENDMENTS. The Employer may amend this Plan at any time, including any remedial retroactive changes (within the time specified by Internal Revenue Service regulations), to comply with any law or regulation issued by any governmental agency to which the Plan is subject. An amendment may not diminish or adversely affect any accrued interest or benefit of Participants or their Beneficiaries nor allow reversion or diversion of Plan assets to the Employer at any time, except as may be required to comply with any law or regulation issued by any governmental agency to which the Plan is subject. No amendment to this Plan shall be effective to the extent that it has the effect of decreasing a Participant's accrued benefit. However, a Participant's Account may be reduced to the extent permitted under Code Section 412(c)(8). For purposes of this paragraph, a Plan amendment which has the effect of decreasing a Participant's Account with respect to benefits attributable to service before the amendment shall be treated as reducing an accrued benefit. Furthermore, if the vesting schedule of the Plan is amended, in the case of an Employee who is a Participant as of the later of the date such amendment is adopted or the date it becomes effective, the nonforfeitable percentage (determined as of such date) of such Employee's right to his employer-derived accrued benefit shall not be less than his percentage computed under the Plan without regard to such amendment. No amendment to the Plan shall be effective to eliminate of restrict an optional form of benefit with respect to benefits attributable to service before the amendment except as provided in the MERGERS AND DIRECT TRANSFERS SECTION of this article and below: (a) The Plan is amended to eliminate or restrict the ability of a Participant to receive payment of his Account balance under a particular optional form of benefit and the amendment satisfies the condition in (1) and the Plan satisfies the condition in (2) below: (1) The amendment provides a single sum distribution form that is otherwise identical to the optional form of benefit eliminated or restricted. For purposes of this condition (1), a single sum distribution form is otherwise identical only if it is identical in all respects to the eliminated or restricted optional form of benefit (or would be identical except that it provides greater rights to the Participant) except with respect to the timing of payments after commencement. (2) The Plan provides that the amendment shall not apply to any distribution with an Annuity Starting Date earlier than the earlier of: (i) the 90th day after the date the Participant receiving the distribution has been furnished a summary that reflects the amendment and that satisfies the ERISA requirements at 29 CFR 2520.104b-3 relating to a summary of material modifications, or RESTATEMENT SEPTEMBER 1, 2004 68 ARTICLE X (4-48179)-1 (ii) the first day of the second Plan Year following the Plan Year in which the amendment is adopted. (b) The Plan is amended to eliminate or restrict in-kind distributions and the conditions in Q&A 2(b)(2)(iii) in section 1.411(d)-4 of the regulations are met. If, as a result of an amendment, an Employer Contribution is removed that is not 100% immediately vested when made, the applicable vesting schedule shall remain in effect after the date of such amendment. The Participant shall not become immediately 100% vested in such Contributions as a result of the elimination of such Contribution except as otherwise specifically provided in the Plan. An amendment shall not decrease a Participant's vested interest in the Plan. If an amendment to the Plan, or a deemed amendment in the case of a change in top-heavy status of the Plan as provided in the MODIFICATION OF VESTING REQUIREMENTS SECTION of Article XI, changes the computation of the percentage used to determine that portion of a Participant's Account attributable to Employer Contributions which is nonforfeitable (whether directly or indirectly), each Participant or former Participant. (c) who has completed at least three Years of Service on the date the election period described below ends (five Years of Service if the Participant does not have at least one Hour-of-Service in a Plan Year beginning after December 31, 1988) and (d) whose nonforfeitable percentage will be determined on any date after the date of the change may elect, during the election period, to have the nonforfeitable percentage of his Account that results from Employer Contributions determined without regard to the amendment. This election may not be revoked. If after the Plan is changed, the Participant's nonforfeitable percentage will at all times be as great as it would have been if the change had not been made, no election needs to be provided. The election period shall begin no later than the date the Plan amendment is adopted, or deemed adopted in the case of a change in the top-heavy status of the Plan, and end no earlier than the 60th day after the latest of the date the amendment is adopted (deemed adopted) or becomes effective, or the date the Participant is issued written notice of the amendment (deemed amendment) by the Employer or the Plan Administrator. SECTION 10.02--DIRECT ROLLOVERS. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary that would otherwise limit a Distributee's election under this section, a Distributee may elect, at the time and in the manner prescribed by the Plan Administrator, to have any portion of an Eligible Rollover Distribution paid directly to an Eligible Retirement Plan specified by the Distributee in a Direct Rollover. Any part of a distribution made under the SMALL AMOUNTS SECTION of this article (or which is a small amounts payment made under Article VIII at complete termination of the Plan) which is an Eligible Rollover Distribution, which is equal to or more than $1,000, and for which the Distributee has not elected to either have such distribution paid to him or to an Eligible Retirement Plan shall be rolled over to an Individual Retirement Account (IRA) with an affiliate of Principal Life Insurance Company. Such amounts shall be initially invested in the Principal Investor Funds Money Market Fund. The Distributee shall have the option to change the investment after the IRA has been established. RESTATEMENT SEPTEMBER 1, 2004 69 ARTICLE X (4-48179)-1 Any part of a distribution made under the SMALL AMOUNTS SECTION of this article (or which is a small amounts payment made under Article VIII at complete termination of the Plan) which is an Eligible Rollover Distribution, which is less than $1,000, and for which the Distributee has not elected to either have such distribution paid to him or to an Eligible Retirement Plan shall be paid to the Distributee. SECTION 10.03--MERGERS AND DIRECT TRANSFERS. The Plan may not be merged or consolidated with, nor have its assets or liabilities transferred to, any other retirement plan, unless each Participant in the plan would (if the plan then terminated) receive a benefit immediately after the merger, consolidation, or transfer which is equal to or greater than the benefit the Participant would have been entitled to receive immediately before the merger, consolidation, or transfer (if this Plan had then terminated). The Employer may enter into merger agreements or direct transfer of assets agreements with the employers under other retirement plans which are qualifiable under Code Section 401(a), including an elective transfer, and may accept the direct transfer of plan assets, or may transfer plan assets, as a party to any such agreement. The Employer shall not consent to, or be a party to a merger, consolidation, or transfer of assets with a defined benefit plan if such action would result in a defined benefit feature being maintained under this Plan. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, to the extent any optional form of benefit under the Plan permits a distribution prior to the Employee's retirement, death, disability, or severance from employment, and prior to plan termination, the optional form of benefit is not available with respect to benefits attributable to assets (including the post-transfer earnings thereon) and liabilities that are transferred, within the meaning of Code Section 414(l), to this Plan from a money purchase pension plan qualified under Code Section 401(e) (other than any portion of those assets and liabilities attributable to voluntary employee contributions). The Plan may accept a direct transfer of plan assets on behalf of an Eligible Employee. If the Eligible Employee is not an Active Participant when the transfer is made, the Eligible Employee shall be deemed to be an Active Participant only for the purpose of investment and distribution of the transferred assets. Employer Contributions shall not be made for or allocated to the Eligible Employee, until the time he meets all of the requirements to become an Active Participant. The Plan shall hold, administer, and distribute the transferred assets as a part of the Plan. The Plan shall maintain a separate account for the benefit of the Employee on whose behalf the Plan accepted the transfer in order to reflect the value of the transferred assets. Unless a transfer of assets to the Plan is an elective transfer as described below, the Plan shall apply the optional forms of benefit protections described in the AMENDMENTS SECTION of this article to all transferred assets. A Participant's protected benefits may be eliminated upon transfer between qualified defined contribution plans if the conditions in Q&A 3(b)(1) in section 1.411(d)-4 of the regulations are met. The transfer must meet all of the other applicable qualification requirements. A Participant's protected benefits may be eliminated upon transfer between qualified plans (both defined benefit and defined contribution) if the conditions in Q&A 3(c)(1) in section 1.411(d)-4 of the regulations are met. Beginning January 1, 2002, if the Participant is eligible to receive an immediate distribution of his entire nonforfeitable accrued benefit in a single sum distribution that would consist entirely of an eligible rollover distribution under Code Section 401(a)(31), such transfer will be accomplished as a direct rollover under Code RESTATEMENT SEPTEMBER 1, 2004 70 ARTICLE X (4-48179)-1 Section 401 (a)(31). The rules applicable to distributions under the plan would apply to the transfer, but the transfer would not be treated as a distribution for purposes of the minimum distribution requirements of Code Section 401 (a)(9). SECTION 10.04--PROVISIONS RELATING TO THE INSURER AND OTHER PARTIES. The obligations of an Insurer shall be governed solely by the provisions of the Annuity Contract. The Insurer shall not be required to perform any act not provided in or contrary to the provisions of the Annuity Contract. Each Annuity Contract when purchased shall comply with the Plan. See the CONSTRUCTION SECTION of this article. Any issuer or distributor of investment contracts or securities is governed solely by the terms of its policies, written investment contract, prospectuses, security instruments, and any other written agreements entered into with the Trustee with regard to such Investment contracts of securities. Such Insurer, issuer or distributor is not a party to the Plan, nor bound in any way by the Plan provisions. Such parties shall not be required to look to the terms of this Plan, nor to determine whether the Employer, the Plan Administrator, the Trustee, or the Named Fiduciary have the authority to act in any particular manner or to make any contract or agreement. Until notice of any amendment or termination of this Plan or a change in Trustee has been received by the Insurer at its home office or an issuer or distributor at their principal address, they are and shall be Fully protected in assuming that the Plan has not been amended or terminated and in dealing with any party acting as Trustee according to the latest information which they have received at their home office or principal address.

SECTION 10.07--BENEFICIARY. Each Participant may name a Beneficiary to receive any death benefit (other than any income payable to a Contingent Annuitant) that may arise out of his participation in the Plan. The Participant may change his Beneficiary from time to time. Unless a qualified election has been made, for purposes of distributing any RESTATEMENT SEPTEMBER 1, 2004 71 ARTICLE X (4-48179)-1 death benefits before the Participant's Retirement Date, the Beneficiary of a Participant who has a spouse who is entitled to a Qualified Preretirement Survivor Annuity shall be the Participant's spouse. The Participant's Beneficiary designation and any change of Beneficiary shall be subject to the provisions of the ELECTION PROCEDURES SECTION of Article VI. It is the responsibility of the Participant to give written notice to the insurer of the name of the Beneficiary on a form furnished for that purpose.

In that event, the written designations made by Participants shall be filed with the Plan Administrator. If 8 Participant dies before his Retirement Date, the Plan Administrator shall certify to the Insurer the Beneficiary designation on its records for the Participant. If there is no Beneficiary named or surviving when a Participant dies, the Participant's Beneficiary shall be the Participant's surviving spouse, or where there is no surviving spouse, the executor or administrator of the Participant's estate.

For purposes of this section, if the Participant's Vested Account Is zero, the Participant shell be deemed to have received a distribution of such Vested Account. If a Participant would have received a distribution under the first sentence of this paragraph but for the fact that the Participant's consent was needed to distribute a benefit which is immediately distributable, end if at a later time consent would not be needed to distribute a benefit which is immediately distributable and such Participant has not again become an Employee, such Vested Account shall be paid in a single sum.

The account balances and accrued benefits of a participant (i) who is not a Key Employee but who was a Key Employee in a prior year or (ii) who has not been credited with at least an hour of service with any employer maintaining the plan at any time during the five-year period ending on the Determination Date will be disregarded. The calculation of the Top-heavy Ratio and the extent to which distributions, rollovers, and transfers are taken into account will be made in accordance with Code Section 416 and the regulations thereunder. Deductible employee contributions will not be taken into account for purposes of computing the Top-heavy Ratio. When aggregating plans, the value of account balances and accrued benefits will be calculated with reference to the Determination Dates that fall within the same calendar year. RESTATEMENT SEPTEMBER 1, 2004 78 ARTICLE XI (4-48179)-1 The accrued benefit of a participant other than a Key Employee shall be determined under (i) the method, if any, that uniformly applies for accrual purposes under all defined benefit plans maintained by the Employer, or (ii) if there is no such method, as if such benefit accrued not more rapidly than the slowest accrual rate permitted under the fractional rule of Code Section 411(b)(1)(C).

During any Plan Year in which the Plan is a Top-heavy Plan; the Participant's Vesting Percentage shall be the greater of the Vesting Percentage determined under Article I or the schedule below.
VESTING SERVICE NONFORFEITABLE (Whole years) PERCENTAGE Less than 2 0 2 20 3 40 4 60 5 80 6 or more 100
The schedule above shall not apply to Participants who are not credited with an Hour-of-Service after the Plan first becomes a Top-heavy Plan. The Vesting Percentage determined above applies to the portion of the Participant's Account which is multiplied by a Vesting Percentage to determine his Vested Account, including benefits accrued before the effective date of Code Section 416 and benefits accrued before this Plan became a Top-heavy Plan. If, in a later Plan Year, this Plan is not a Top-heavy Plan, & Participant's Vesting Percentage shall be determined under Article I. A Participant's Vesting Percentage determined under either Article I or the schedule above shall never be reduced and the election procedures of the AMENDMENTS SECTION of Article X shall apply when changing to or from the schedule as though the automatic change were the result of an amendment. The part of the Participant's Vested Account resulting from the minimum contributions required pursuant to the MODIFICATION OF CONTRIBUTIONS SECTION of this article (to the extent required to be nonforfeitable under Code Section 416(b)) may not be forfeited under Code Section 411(a)(3)(B) or (D). SECTION 11.04--MODIFICATION OF CONTRIBUTIONS. During any Plan Year in which this Plan is a Top-heavy Plan, the Employer shall make a minimum contribution as of the last day of the Plan Year for each Non-key Employee who is an Employee on the last day of the Plan Year and who was an Active Participant at any time during the Plan Year. A Non-key Employee is not required to have a minimum number of Hours-of-Service or minimum amount of Compensation in order to be entitled to this minimum. A Non-key Employee who fails to be an Active Participant merely because his Compensation is less than a stated amount or merely because of a failure to make mandatory participant RESTATEMENT SEPTEMBER 1, 2004 79 ARTICLE XI (4-48179)-1 contributions or, in the case of a cash or deferred arrangement, elective contributions shall be treated as if he were an Active Participant. The minimum is the lesser of (a) or (b) below: (a) 3 percent of such person's Compensation for such Plan Year. (b) The "highest percentage" of Compensation for such Plan Year at which the Employer's contributions are made for or allocated to any Key Employee. The highest percentage shall be determined by dividing the Employer Contributions made for or allocated to each Key Employee during the Plan Year by the amount of his Compensation for such Plan Year, and selecting the greatest quotient (expressed as a percentage). To determine the highest percentage, all of the Employer's defined contribution plans within the Aggregation Group shall be treated as one plan. The minimum shall be the amount in (a) above if this Plan and a defined benefit plan of the Employer are required to be included in the Aggregation Group and this Plan enables the defined benefit plan to meet the requirements of Code Section 401(a)(4) or 410. For purposes of (a) and (b) above, Compensation shall be limited by Code Section 401(a)(17). If the Employer's contributions and allocations otherwise required under the defined contribution plan(s) are at least equal to the minimum above, no additional contribution Shall be required. If the Employer's total contributions and allocations are less than the minimum above, the Employer shall contribute the difference for the Plan Year. The minimum contribution applies to all of the Employer's defined contribution plans in the aggregate which are Top-heavy Plans. A minimum contribution under a profit sharing plan shall be made without regard to whether or not the Employer has profits. If a person who is otherwise entitled to a minimum contribution above is also covered under another defined contribution plan of the Employer's which is a Top-heavy Plan during that same Plan Year, any additional contribution required to meet the minimum above shall be provided in this Plan. If a person who is otherwise entitled to a minimum contribution above is also covered under a defined benefit plan of the Employer's which is a Top-heavy Plan during that same Plan Year, the minimum benefits for him Shall not be duplicated. The defined benefit plan shall provide an annual benefit for him on, Or adjusted to, a straight life basis equal to the lesser of: (c) 2 percent of his average compensation multiplied by his years of service, or (d) 20 percent of his average compensation. Average compensation and years of service shall have the meaning set forth in such defined benefit plan for this purpose. For purposes of this section, any employer contribution made according to a salary reduction or similar arrangement and employer contributions which are matching contributions, as defined in Code Section 401(m), shall not apply in determining if the minimum contribution requirement has been met, but shall apply in determining the minimum contribution required. The requirements of this section shall be met without regard to any Social Security contribution.
