 TRANSITION SERVICES AGREEMENT 

This TRANSITION SERVICES AGREEMENT (together with the Schedules hereto, this “Agreement”) is entered into as of
[            ], 2015, by and between The Babcock & Wilcox Company, a Delaware corporation (“RemainCo”), and Babcock & Wilcox Enterprises, Inc., a Delaware
corporation (“SpinCo”). 
 WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of RemainCo has determined that it would be appropriate and desirable
for RemainCo to distribute (the “Distribution”) on a pro rata basis to the holders of outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of RemainCo all of the outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of
SpinCo owned by RemainCo; 
 WHEREAS, in order to effectuate the foregoing, RemainCo and SpinCo have entered into a Master Separation
Agreement, dated as of the date hereof (the “Master Separation Agreement”), which provides, among other things, upon the terms and subject to the conditions thereof, for the separation of the respective businesses of RemainCo and SpinCo
and the Distribution, and the execution and delivery of certain other agreements, including this Agreement, in order to facilitate and provide for the foregoing; and 

WHEREAS, in order to provide for an orderly transition under the Master Separation Agreement, it will be advisable for RemainCo, through
members of the RemainCo Group, to provide to SpinCo certain services described herein for a transitional period. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in
consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants and agreements herein contained, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound,

 ARTICLE II 

SERVICES 
 Section 2.1
Services. 
 (a) Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, RemainCo, acting directly and/or through its
Affiliates and their respective employees, agents, contractors or independent third parties designated by any of them, agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to provide or to cause to be provided services to the SpinCo Group as set forth in
Schedules A through I (including any Additional Services provided in accordance with Section 2.3 hereof, all such services are collectively referred to herein as the “Services”). 

(b) At all times during the performance of the Services, all Persons performing such Services (including agents, temporary employees,
independent third parties and consultants) shall be construed as being independent from the SpinCo Group, and such Persons shall not be considered or deemed to be employees of any member of the SpinCo Group nor entitled to any employee benefits of
SpinCo as a result of this Agreement. The responsibility of such Persons is to perform the Services in accordance with this Agreement and, as necessary, to advise the applicable member of the SpinCo Group in connection therewith, and such Persons
shall not be responsible for decision-making on behalf of any member of the SpinCo Group. Such Persons shall not be required to report to management of any member of the SpinCo Group nor be deemed to be under the management or direction of any
member of the SpinCo Group. SpinCo acknowledges and agrees that, except as may be expressly set forth herein as a Service (including any Additional Services provided in accordance with Section 2.3 hereof) or otherwise expressly set forth in the
Master Separation Agreement or an Ancillary Agreement, no member of the RemainCo Group shall be obligated to provide, or cause to be provided, any service or goods to any member of the SpinCo Group. 

  
 - 2 - 








 (c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, RemainCo and members of the
RemainCo Group shall not be required to perform Services hereunder or take any actions relating thereto that conflict with or violate any applicable Law, contract, license, authorization, certification or permit or RemainCo’s Code of Business
Conduct or other governance policies, as they may be amended from time to time. 
 Section 2.2 Service Coordinators. Each
party will nominate in writing a representative to act as the primary contact with respect to the provision of the Services and the resolution of disputes under this Agreement (each such person, a “Service Coordinator”). The initial
Service Coordinators shall be David S. Black (for RemainCo) and Jude T. Broussard (for SpinCo) (or their designated delegates) for each of RemainCo and SpinCo, respectively. The Service Coordinators shall meet as expeditiously as possible to resolve
any dispute hereunder; and any dispute that is not resolved by the Service Coordinators within 45 days shall be resolved in accordance with the dispute resolution procedures set forth in Article V of the Master Separation Agreement. Each party
hereto may treat an act of a Service Coordinator of the other party hereto which is consistent with the provisions of this Agreement as being authorized by such other party without inquiring behind such act or ascertaining whether such Service
Coordinator had authority to so act; provided, however, that no such Service Coordinator shall have authority to amend this Agreement. RemainCo and SpinCo shall advise each other promptly (in any case no more than three Business Days)
in writing of any change in their respective Service Coordinators, setting forth the name of the replacement, and stating that the replacement Service Coordinator is authorized to act for such party in accordance with this Section 2.2. 

Section 2.3 Additional Services. SpinCo may request additional Services (the “Additional Services”) from RemainCo
by providing written notice. Upon the mutual written agreement as to the nature, cost, duration and scope of such Additional Services, RemainCo and SpinCo shall supplement in writing the Schedules hereto to include such Additional Services. Subject
to the other limitations in this Agreement, including the provisions in Section 2.6, but notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.3, in addition to providing the Services specified in the Schedules, RemainCo, acting
directly and/or through its Affiliates and their respective employees, agents, contractors or independent third parties designated by any of them, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide or to cause to be provided additional, de minimis
administrative support services to the SpinCo Group as may be requested by any member of the SpinCo Group from time to time, at no cost beyond the amounts set forth in the Schedules (as the amounts set forth in the Schedules contemplate such
additional, de minimis administrative support services); provided, however, that, for any such additional services to be considered de minimis for purposes of this sentence, such additional services shall not require the attention of (i) any
one employee of any member of the RemainCo Group for more than 2 hours in any single calendar month or (ii) any group of employees of any one or more members of the RemainCo Group for more than 30 hours in any single calendar month. Except
where the context otherwise indicates or requires, any such additional services referred to in the immediately preceding sentence shall be deemed to be “Services” under this Agreement. 

Section 2.4 Third Party Services. RemainCo shall have the right to hire third-party subcontractors to provide all or part of any
Service hereunder, except as specifically prohibited by the Schedule defining such Service; provided, that RemainCo shall consult in good faith with 

  
 - 3 - 








 
SpinCo regarding the proposed hiring of any third-party subcontractor that has not previously been involved in the activities relating to such Service prior to the date hereof; provided, further,
that, in the event such subcontracting is inconsistent with the practice applied by RemainCo generally from time to time within its own organization, RemainCo shall give notice to SpinCo of its intent to subcontract any portion of the Services and
SpinCo shall have 20 days (or such lesser period set forth in the notice as may be practicable in the event of exigent circumstances) to determine, in its sole discretion, whether to permit such subcontracting or whether to cancel such Service in
accordance with Article VI hereof. If SpinCo opts to cancel a Service pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, it shall not be liable to RemainCo pursuant to Section 6.1 for any costs or expenses RemainCo or any member of the RemainCo
Group remains obligated to pay to the third-party subcontractor identified in the notice provided by RemainCo as described above. RemainCo shall not be required to give notice of its intent to subcontract Services to any party listed on Exhibit 2.4
hereto, nor shall SpinCo have any right to cancel any Service subcontracted to any such listed party pursuant to this Section 2.4 (provided, that this sentence shall not prevent SpinCo from cancelling any Service pursuant to Section 6.1).

 Section 2.5 Standard of Performance; Limitation of Liability. 

(a) The Services to be provided hereunder shall be performed with the same general degree of care, at the same general level and at the same
general degree of accuracy and responsiveness, as when performed within the RemainCo organization (including, for this purpose, SpinCo and the SpinCo Group) prior to the date of this Agreement. It is understood and agreed that RemainCo and the
members of the RemainCo Group are not professional providers of the types of services included in the Services and that RemainCo personnel performing Services have other responsibilities and will not be dedicated full-time to performing Services
hereunder. 
 (b) In the event RemainCo or any member of the RemainCo Group fails to provide, or cause to be provided, the Services in
accordance with the standard of service set forth in Section 2.5(a), the sole and exclusive remedy of SpinCo shall be, at SpinCo’s sole discretion, within 90 days from the date that RemainCo or such member of the RemainCo Group first fails
to provide such Service, to not pay for such Service; provided that in the event RemainCo defaults in the manner described in clause (ii) of Section 7.1, SpinCo shall have the further rights set forth in Article VII. 

(c) EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION 2.5, NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED (INCLUDING THE
WARRANTIES OF NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR CONFORMITY TO ANY REPRESENTATION OR DESCRIPTION), ARE MADE BY REMAINCO OR ANY MEMBER OF THE REMAINCO GROUP WITH RESPECT TO THE SERVICES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT AND,
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ALL SUCH REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES ARE HEREBY WAIVED AND DISCLAIMED. SPINCO (ON ITS OWN BEHALF AND ON BEHALF OF EACH OTHER MEMBER OF THE SPINCO GROUP) HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT SPINCO OR
ANY MEMBER OF THE SPINCO GROUP MAY OTHERWISE HAVE FOR ANY LOSSES, TO ENFORCE SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE OR TO PURSUE ANY OTHER 

  
 - 4 - 








 
REMEDY AVAILABLE IN CONTRACT, AT LAW OR IN EQUITY IN THE EVENT OF ANY NON-PERFORMANCE, INADEQUATE PERFORMANCE, FAULTY PERFORMANCE OR OTHER FAILURE OR BREACH BY REMAINCO OR ANY MEMBER OF THE
REMAINCO GROUP UNDER OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, NOTWITHSTANDING THE NEGLIGENCE OR GROSS NEGLIGENCE (WHETHER SOLE, JOINT OR CONCURRENT OR ACTIVE OR PASSIVE) OF REMAINCO OR ANY MEMBER OF THE REMAINCO GROUP OR ANY THIRD PARTY SERVICE PROVIDER AND
WHETHER DAMAGES ARE ASSERTED IN CONTRACT OR TORT, UNDER FEDERAL, STATE OR NON U.S. LAWS OR OTHER STATUTE OR OTHERWISE; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT THE FOREGOING WAIVER SHALL NOT EXTEND TO COVER, AND REMAINCO SHALL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR, SUCH LOSSES CAUSED
BY THE WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OF REMAINCO OR ANY MEMBER OF THE REMAINCO GROUP. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT TO THE CONTRARY, IN NO EVENT SHALL THE REMAINCO GROUP BE LIABLE TO THE SPINCO GROUP WITH RESPECT TO CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF THIS
AGREEMENT FOR AMOUNTS IN THE AGGREGATE EXCEEDING THE AGGREGATE SERVICE CHARGES PAID HEREUNDER BY THE SPINCO GROUP. 

Section 2.6 Service Boundaries and Scope. Except as provided in a Schedule for a specific Service, the Services shall be
available only for purposes of conducting the business of the SpinCo Group substantially in the manner it was conducted immediately prior to the Distribution Date. Except as provided in a Schedule for a specific Service, in providing, or causing to
be provided, the Services, RemainCo shall not be obligated to: (i) maintain the employment of any specific employee or hire additional employees or third-party service providers; (ii) purchase, lease or license any additional equipment
(including computer equipment, furniture, furnishings, fixtures, machinery, vehicles, tools and other tangible personal property), software or other assets, rights or properties; (iii) make modifications to its existing systems or software;
(iv) provide any member of the SpinCo Group with access to any systems or software other than those to which it has authorized access immediately prior to the Distribution Date; or (v) pay any costs related to the transfer or conversion of
data of any member of the SpinCo Group. SpinCo acknowledges (on its own behalf and on behalf of the other members of the SpinCo Group) that the employees of RemainCo or any other members of the RemainCo Group who may be assisting in the provision of
Services hereunder are at-will employees and, as such, may terminate or be terminated from employment with RemainCo or any of the other members of the RemainCo Group providing Services hereunder at any time for any reason. In no event shall RemainCo
or any of its Affiliates or any of their respective employees or agents be required to perform any Services or take any other actions hereunder that conflict with any applicable Law. For the avoidance of doubt and except as may hereafter be
designated as Additional Services in accordance with Section 2.3, the Services do not include any services required for or as the result of any business acquisitions, divestitures, start-ups or shutdowns or discontinuation of current business
lines by the SpinCo Group. To the extent SpinCo desires RemainCo to provide any services in connection with any such acquisitions, divestitures, start-ups or shutdowns or discontinuation of current business lines, SpinCo shall follow the procedures
for requesting Additional Services pursuant to Section 2.3. 
 Section 2.7 Cooperation. RemainCo and SpinCo shall
cooperate with one another and provide such further assistance as the other party may reasonably request in connection with (a) the provision of Services hereunder or (b) the compliance with any Laws imposed on either SpinCo or
RemainCo. 

  
 - 5 - 








 Section 2.8 Transitional Nature of Services; Changes. Subject to Sections 2.3
and 2.5, the parties acknowledge the transitional nature of the Services and that RemainCo may make changes from time to time in the manner of performing the Services. 

Section 2.9 Access. During the term of this Agreement and for so long as any Services are being provided to SpinCo by
RemainCo, SpinCo will provide RemainCo and its authorized representatives reasonable access, during regular business hours upon reasonable notice, to SpinCo and its employees, representatives, facilities and books and records as RemainCo and its
representatives may reasonably require in order to perform such Services. 
 ARTICLE III 

SERVICE CHARGES 

Section 3.1 Compensation. Subject to the specific terms of this Agreement, the compensation to be received by RemainCo for
each Service provided hereunder will be the fees set forth on the Schedule relating to the particular Service, subject to any escalation provided for on such Schedule. In consideration for the provision of a Service, each member of the SpinCo Group
receiving such Service shall pay to RemainCo or, at the election of RemainCo, the member of the RemainCo Group providing such Service, the applicable fee for such Service as set forth on the attached Schedules. 

ARTICLE IV 
 PAYMENT 

Section 4.1 Payment. Except as otherwise provided in a Schedule for a specific Service, charges for Services shall be invoiced monthly in
arrears based on the Services provided by RemainCo or, at its option, the member of the RemainCo Group providing the Service. Except as otherwise provided in a Schedule for a specific Service, SpinCo shall make the corresponding payment no later
than 60 days after receipt of the invoice. Unless otherwise provided in this Agreement, SpinCo shall remit funds in payment of invoices provided hereunder either by wire transfer or ACH (Automated Clearing House) in accordance with the payment
instructions set forth in Schedule 4.1. Each invoice shall be directed to the SpinCo Service Coordinator or such other person designated in writing from time to time by such Service Coordinator. The invoice shall set forth in reasonable detail the
Services rendered and the invoice amount for the Services rendered for the period covered by such invoice. Interest will accrue on any unpaid amounts at ten percent (10%) per annum (compounded monthly) or, if less, the maximum non-usurious rate
of interest permitted by applicable law, until such amounts, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, are paid in full. All timely payments under this Agreement shall be made without early payment discount. Any preexisting obligation
to make payment for Services provided hereunder shall survive the termination of this Agreement. If RemainCo incurs any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including any incremental license fees incurred by RemainCo in connection with performance of
the Services and any travel 

  
 - 6 - 








 
expenses incurred at the request or with the consent of SpinCo) or remits funds to a third-party on behalf of SpinCo, in either case in connection with the rendering of Services, then RemainCo
shall include such amount on its monthly invoice to SpinCo, with reasonable supporting documentation, and SpinCo shall reimburse that amount to RemainCo pursuant to this Section 4.1 as part of its next monthly payment. 

Section 4.2 Payment Disputes. SpinCo may object to any amounts for any Service at any time before, at the time of, or after
payment is made, provided such objection is made in writing to RemainCo within 90 days following the date of the disputed invoice. SpinCo shall timely pay the disputed items in full while resolution of the dispute is pending; provided, however, that
RemainCo shall pay interest at a rate of five percent (5%) per annum (compounded monthly) on any amounts it is required to return to SpinCo upon resolution of the dispute. Payment of any amount shall not constitute approval thereof. The Service
Coordinators shall meet as expeditiously as possible to resolve any dispute. Any dispute that is not resolved by the Service Coordinators within 45 days shall be resolved in accordance with the dispute resolution and arbitration procedures set forth
in Article V of the Master Separation Agreement. Neither party (or any member of its respective Group) shall have a right of set-off against the other party (or any member of its respective Group) for billed amounts hereunder. Upon written request,
RemainCo will provide to SpinCo reasonable detail and support documentation to permit SpinCo to verify the accuracy of an invoice. 

Section 4.3 Review of Charges; Error Correction. RemainCo shall maintain accurate books and records (including invoices of
third parties) related to the Services sufficient to calculate, and allow SpinCo to verify, the amounts owed under this Agreement. From time to time until 120 days following the termination of this Agreement, SpinCo shall have the right to review,
and RemainCo shall provide access to, such books and records to verify the accuracy of such amounts, provided that such reviews shall not occur more frequently than once per calendar quarter. Each such review shall be conducted during normal
business hours and in a manner that does not unreasonably interfere with the operations of RemainCo. If, as a result of any such review, SpinCo determines that it overpaid any amount to RemainCo, then SpinCo may raise an objection pursuant to the
provisions of Section 4.2. SpinCo shall bear the cost and expense of any such review. RemainCo shall make adjustments to charges as required to reflect the discovery of errors or omissions in charges. 

Section 4.4 Taxes. All transfer taxes, excises, fees or other charges (including value added, sales, use or receipts taxes, but
not including a tax on or measured by the income, net or gross revenues, business activity or capital of a member of the RemainCo Group), or any increase therein, now or hereafter imposed directly or indirectly by law upon any fees paid hereunder
for Services, which a member of the RemainCo Group is required to pay or incur in connection with the provision of Services hereunder (“Tax”), shall be passed on to SpinCo as an explicit surcharge and shall be paid by SpinCo in addition to
any Service fee payment, whether included in the applicable Service fee payment, or added retroactively. If SpinCo submits to RemainCo a timely and valid resale or other exemption certificate acceptable to RemainCo and sufficient to support the
exemption from Tax, then such Tax will not be added to the Service fee payable pursuant to Article III; provided, however, that if a member of the RemainCo Group is ever required to pay such Tax, SpinCo will promptly reimburse RemainCo for such Tax,
including any interest, penalties and attorney’s fees related thereto. The parties will cooperate to minimize the imposition of any Taxes. 

  
 - 7 - 








 Section 4.5 Records. RemainCo shall maintain true and correct records of all
receipts, invoices, reports and such other documents relating to the Services hereunder in accordance with its standard accounting practices and procedures, consistently applied. RemainCo shall retain such accounting records and make them available
to SpinCo’s authorized representatives and auditors for a period of not less than one year from the close of each fiscal year of RemainCo; provided, however, that RemainCo may, at its option, transfer such accounting records to SpinCo upon
termination of this Agreement. 
 ARTICLE V 

TERM 
 Section 5.1
Term. Subject to Articles VI and VII, the RemainCo Group shall provide the specific Services to the SpinCo Group pursuant to this Agreement for the time period set forth on the Schedule relating to the specific Service. In accordance with the
Master Separation Agreement and Article VI of this Agreement, except as otherwise provided in a Schedule for a specific Service, SpinCo shall undertake to provide to itself and members of the SpinCo Group, and to terminate as soon as reasonably
practicable, the Services provided to the SpinCo Group hereunder. Except as otherwise provided in a Schedule for a specific Service or group of related Services, all Services provided for hereunder shall terminate on December 31, 2016. Except
as otherwise expressly agreed or unless sooner terminated, this Agreement shall commence upon the Distribution Date and shall continue in full force and effect between the parties for so long as any Service set forth in any Schedule hereto is being
provided to SpinCo or members of the SpinCo Group and this Agreement shall terminate upon the cessation of all Services provided hereunder; provided that Articles I, IV, VIII, IX and XI and Sections 2.5(c) and 2.7 will survive the termination of
this Agreement and any such termination shall not affect any obligation for the payment of Services rendered prior to termination. 
 ARTICLE
VI 
 DISCONTINUATION OF SERVICES 

Section 6.1 Discontinuation of Services. Unless otherwise provided in the relevant Schedule for a particular Service, at any time
after the Distribution Date, SpinCo may, without cause and in accordance with the terms and conditions hereunder and the Master Separation Agreement, request the discontinuation of one or more specific Services by giving RemainCo at least 30
days’ prior written notice; provided, however, that any such discontinuation will not affect the amounts payable to RemainCo hereunder unless (and then only to the extent that) the charges for the discontinued Services have been separately
identified in the applicable Schedule. SpinCo shall be liable to RemainCo for all costs and expenses RemainCo or any member of the RemainCo Group remains obligated to pay in connection with any discontinued Service or Services, except in the case of
a Service terminated by SpinCo pursuant to clause (ii) of the first sentence of Section 7.1 hereof. The parties shall cooperate as reasonably required to effectuate an orderly and systematic transfer to the SpinCo Group of all of the
duties and obligations previously performed by RemainCo or a member of the RemainCo Group under this Agreement. 

  
 - 8 - 








 Section 6.2 Procedures Upon Discontinuation or Termination of Services. Upon the
discontinuation or termination of a Service hereunder, this Agreement shall be of no further force and effect with respect to such Service, except as otherwise provided in a Schedule for a specific Service and except as to obligations accrued prior
to the date of discontinuation or termination; provided, however, that Articles I, IV, VIII, IX and XI and Section 2.5(c) of this Agreement shall survive such discontinuation or termination. Each party and the applicable member(s) of its
respective Group shall, within 60 days after discontinuation or termination of a Service, deliver to the other party and the applicable member(s) of its respective Group originals of all books, records, contracts, receipts for deposits and all other
papers or documents in its possession which pertain exclusively to the business of the other party and relate to such Service; provided that a party may retain copies of material provided to the other party pursuant to this Section 6.2 as it
deems necessary or appropriate in connection with its financial reporting obligations or internal control practices and policies. 
 ARTICLE
VII 
 DEFAULT 

Section 7.1 Termination for Default. In the event (i) of a failure of SpinCo to pay for Services in accordance with
Section 4.1, or (ii) any party shall default, in any material respect, in the due performance or observance by it of any of the other terms, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement, then (1) if the non-defaulting party is
RemainCo, RemainCo shall have the right, at its sole discretion, to immediately terminate the Service with respect to which the default occurred, and (2) if the non-defaulting party is SpinCo, SpinCo shall have the right, at its sole
discretion, to immediately terminate the Service with respect to which the default occurred, in either case if the defaulting party has failed to cure the default within 30 days of receipt of the written notice of such default. SpinCo’s right
to terminate the Service with respect to which the default occurred pursuant to this Article VII and the rights set forth in Section 2.5 shall constitute SpinCo’s sole and exclusive rights and remedies for a breach by RemainCo hereunder
(including any breach caused by an Affiliate of RemainCo or other third party providing a Service hereunder). 
 ARTICLE VIII

Section 8.2 Services Received. SpinCo hereby acknowledges and agrees that: 

(a) the Services to be provided hereunder are subject to and limited by the provisions of Section 2.5, Article VII and the other
provisions hereof, including the limitation of remedies available to SpinCo that restricts available remedies resulting from a Service not provided in accordance with the terms hereof to non-payment and, in certain limited circumstances, the right
to terminate such Service; 
 (b) the Services are being provided solely to facilitate the transition of SpinCo to a separate company as a
result of the Distribution, and RemainCo and its Affiliates do not provide any such Services to non-Affiliates; 
 (c) it is not the intent
of RemainCo and the other members of the RemainCo Group to render, nor of SpinCo and the other members of the SpinCo Group to receive from RemainCo and the other members of the RemainCo Group, professional advice or opinions, whether with regard to
tax, legal, treasury, finance, employment or other business and financial matters, or technical advice, whether with regard to information technology or other matters; SpinCo shall not rely on, or construe, any Service rendered by or on behalf of
RemainCo as such professional advice or opinions or technical advice; and SpinCo shall seek all third-party professional advice and opinions or technical advice as it may desire or need, and in any event SpinCo shall be responsible for and assume
all risks associated with the Services, except to the limited extent set forth in Section 2.5 and Article VII;

any software or documentation within the Services, SpinCo shall use such software and documentation internally and for their intended purpose only, shall not distribute, publish, transfer, sublicense or in any manner make such software or
documentation available to other organizations or persons, and shall not act as a service bureau or consultant in connection with such software; and 

(e) a material inducement to RemainCo’s agreement to provide the Services is the limitation of liability and the release provided by
SpinCo in this Agreement. 
 ACCORDINGLY, EXCEPT WITH REGARD TO THE LIMITED REMEDIES EXPRESSLY SET FORTH HEREIN, SPINCO SHALL ASSUME ALL
LIABILITY FOR AND SHALL FURTHER RELEASE, DEFEND, INDEMNIFY AND HOLD REMAINCO, ANY MEMBER OF THE REMAINCO GROUP AND THEIR RESPECTIVE EMPLOYEES, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS AND AGENTS (ALL AS INDEMNIFIED PARTIES) FREE AND HARMLESS FROM AND AGAINST ALL LOSSES

CAUSED BY THE WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OF REMAINCO OR ANY MEMBER OF THE REMAINCO GROUP.

IN THIS AGREEMENT (INCLUDING ARTICLES II AND VIII) ARE INTENDED TO BE ENFORCEABLE AGAINST THE PARTIES IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE EXPRESS TERMS AND SCOPE THEREOF NOTWITHSTANDING ANY EXPRESS NEGLIGENCE RULE OR ANY SIMILAR DIRECTIVE THAT WOULD PROHIBIT OR

(to the extent such Information does not constitute RemainCo Books and Records) provided by any member of the SpinCo Group to any member of the RemainCo Group after the Distribution Date in connection with the provision of the Services by any member
of the RemainCo Group, or generated, maintained or held in connection with the provision of the Services by any member of the RemainCo Group after the Distribution Date, in each case that primarily relates to the SpinCo Business, the SpinCo Assets,

Section 9.2 System Security. 

(a) If any party hereto is given access to the other party’s computer systems or software (collectively, the “Systems”) in
connection with the Services, the party given access (the “Availed Party”) shall comply with all of the other party’s system security policies, procedures and requirements that have been provided to the Availed Party in advance and in
writing (collectively, “Security Regulations”), and shall not tamper with, compromise or circumvent any security or audit measures employed by such other party. The Availed Party shall access and use only those Systems of the other party
for which it has been granted the right to access and use. 
 (b) Each party hereto shall use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that
only those of its personnel who are specifically authorized to have access to the Systems of the other party gain such access, and use commercially reasonable efforts to prevent unauthorized access, use, destruction, alteration or loss of
information contained therein, including notifying its personnel of the restrictions set forth in this Agreement and of the Security Regulations. 

(c) If, at any time, the Availed Party determines that any of its personnel has sought to circumvent, or has circumvented, the Security

addition, such other party hereto shall have the right to deny personnel of the Availed Party access to its Systems upon notice to the Availed Party in the event that the other party hereto reasonably believes that such personnel have engaged in any
of the activities set forth above in this Section 9.2(c) or otherwise pose a security concern. The Availed Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with the other party hereto in investigating any apparent unauthorized
access to such other party’s Systems.

FORCE MAJEURE 
 Section 10.1
Performance Excused. Continued performance of a Service may be suspended immediately to the extent caused by any event or condition beyond the reasonable control of the party suspending such performance (and not involving any willful
misconduct of such party), including acts of God, pandemics, floods, fire, earthquakes, labor or trade disturbances, strikes, war, acts of terrorism, civil commotion, electrical shortages or blackouts, breakdown or injury to computing facilities,
compliance in good faith with any Law (whether or not it later proves to be invalid), unavailability of materials or bad weather (a “Force Majeure Event”). SpinCo shall not be obligated to pay any amount for Services that it does not
receive as a result of a Force Majeure Event (and the parties hereto shall negotiate reasonably to determine the amount applicable to such Services not received). In addition to the reduction of any amounts owed by SpinCo hereunder, during the
occurrence of a Force Majeure Event, to the extent the provision of any Service has been disrupted or reduced, during such disruption or reduction, (a) SpinCo may replace any such affected Service by providing any such Service for itself or
engaging one or more third parties to provide such Service at the expense of SpinCo and (b) RemainCo shall cooperate with, provide such information to and take such other actions as may be reasonably required to assist such third parties to
provide such substitute Service. 
 Section 10.2 Notice. The party claiming suspension due to a Force Majeure Event will give
prompt notice to the other of the occurrence of the Force Majeure Event giving rise to the suspension and of its nature and anticipated duration. 

Section 10.3 Cooperation. Upon the occurrence of a Force Majeure Event, the parties shall cooperate with each other to find
alternative means and methods for the provision of the suspended Service.

Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the documents referenced herein (including the Schedules and the Master Separation Agreement), constitutes the entire agreement and understanding between the parties hereto with respect to the
subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior written and oral and all contemporaneous oral agreements and understandings with respect to the subject matter hereof. To the extent any provision of this Agreement conflicts with the provisions of the

 Section 11.2 Binding Effect; No Third-Party Beneficiaries; Assignment. This Agreement
shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns; and nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any other person or entity any rights, benefits
or remedies of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement. This Agreement may not be assigned by either party hereto, except with the prior written consent of the other party hereto. 

Section 11.3 Amendment; Waivers. No change or amendment may be made to this Agreement except by an instrument in writing signed on
behalf of both of the parties hereto. No failure or delay on the part of either party hereto in the exercise of any right hereunder shall impair such right or be construed to be a waiver of, or acquiescence in, any breach of any representation,
warranty, covenant or agreement contained herein, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other right. 

Section 11.4 Notices. Unless otherwise expressly provided herein, all notices, claims, certificates, requests, demands and other
communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to be duly given (i) when personally delivered or (ii) if mailed by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, on the date the return receipt is
executed or the letter is refused by the addressee or its agent or (iii) if sent by overnight courier which delivers only upon the signed receipt of the addressee, on the date the receipt acknowledgment is executed or refused by the addressee
or its agent or (iv) if sent by facsimile or electronic mail, on the date confirmation of transmission is received (provided that a copy of any notice delivered pursuant to this clause (iv) shall also be sent pursuant to clause (i),
(ii) or (iii)), addressed to the attention of the addressee’s General Counsel at the address of its principal executive office or to such other address or facsimile number for a party hereto as it shall have specified by like notice. 

Section 11.5 Counterparts. This Agreement and the other documents referred to herein, may be executed in multiple counterparts,
each of which when executed shall be deemed to be an original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same agreement. 

Section 11.6 Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement or the Schedules attached hereto is determined by a
nonappealable decision by a court, administrative agency or arbitrator to be invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of law or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full
force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to either party hereto. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal
or incapable of being enforced, the court, administrative agency or arbitrator shall interpret this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that transactions contemplated
hereby are fulfilled to the fullest extent possible. If any sentence in this Agreement is so broad as to be unenforceable, the provision shall be interpreted to be only so broad as is enforceable.

 Section 11.7 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed and
enforced in accordance with, the substantive laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to any conflicts of law provisions thereof that would result in the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction.

agreements and obligations set forth herein to be performed by any Subsidiary or Affiliate of such party. 
 Section 11.9

Group which performs Services hereunder) is an independent contractor in the performance of Services for the SpinCo Group under this Agreement. 

Section 11.10 Regulations. All employees of RemainCo and the members of the RemainCo Group shall, when on the property of SpinCo,

Section 11.11 Construction. This Agreement shall be construed as if jointly drafted by the parties hereto and no rule of
construction or strict interpretation shall be applied against either party. In this Agreement, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, words used in the singular include the plural and words used in the plural include the singular; and if a
word or phrase is defined in this Agreement, its other grammatical forms, as used in this Agreement, shall have a corresponding meaning. Whenever the context requires, the gender of all words used in this Agreement includes the masculine, feminine
and the neuter. Unless the context otherwise requires, the words “include,” “includes” and “including” shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation,” and the word “or” shall have
the inclusive meaning represented by the phrase “and/or.” The words “shall” and “will” are used interchangeably in this Agreement and have the same meaning. Relative to the determination of any period of time hereunder,
“from” means “from and including,” “to” means “to but excluding” and “through” means “through and including.” Whenever this Agreement refers to a number of days, such number shall refer to
calendar days unless Business Days are specified. Any reference herein to any Article, Section or Schedule means such Article or Section of, or such Schedule to, this Agreement, as the case may be, and references in any Section or definition to any
clause means such clause of such Section or definition. As used in this Agreement, the words “this Agreement,” “herein,” “hereunder,” “hereof,” “hereto” and words of similar import shall be deemed
references to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular Section or other provision of this Agreement. The titles to Articles and headings of Sections contained in this Agreement, in any Schedule and in the table of contents to this
