	2.	SERVICES 

  

	2.1	Except as otherwise provided herein, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, Exxaro shall provide, or cause one or more members of its Group to
provide, the Acquired Companies with each of the Services listed on Exhibit A (each service listed on Exhibit A being a “Service” and, collectively, the “Services”), which
Services may include, for the avoidance of doubt, the transfer and installation of certain hardware, software, related licenses and applications, and other items as set forth on Exhibit A or pursuant to the Transaction Agreement, in each
case, beginning on the “Start Date” set forth on Exhibit A for such Service and ending on the earlier of (a) the “End Date” set forth on Exhibit A for such Service,
(b) the termination of this TS Agreement, or (c) the termination of such Service pursuant to Section 11 (each such duration, a “Service Term”). The place of rendering services by Exxaro shall (mainly) be the

the Parties agree for any Services to be provided to the Australian Acquired Companies, then in such case “Services” and “Acquired Companies” shall be deemed to include Services provided to such companies hereunder, as well.


  

	2.2	Subject to the provisions set forth in this Section 2.2, the Transition Costs incurred by the Exxaro Group in connection with the Services to be provided to the

 8

whatsoever to upgrade systems, invest in product enhancements or increase staffing, capacity, functionality, reliability or any other aspect of any Service beyond the level that exists as of the date hereof with respect to any Service.


  

	2.4	Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, during the Term, Tronox may from time to time request that Exxaro provide special services or projects in
addition to the Services, and (subject to the mutual agreement of the Parties) Exxaro shall make commercially reasonable efforts to provide such additional services or projects. If Exxaro, subject to its sole and absolute discretion, agrees to
provide such additional services or projects, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to establish the terms (including price) for providing such additional services or projects and, following agreement on such terms, Exhibit A hereof
shall be amended, as applicable, to include such additions. 

  

	3.	STANDARDS OF PERFORMANCE: LEVEL OF SERVICES 

  

	3.1	With respect to any Service provided to the South African Acquired Companies, Exxaro shall, and shall cause the members of its Group to, perform such Service exercising
the same degree of care, at the same general level and at the same general degree of accuracy and responsiveness, in each case as it exercises in performing the same or similar services for its own account, with priority equal to that provided to
its own businesses and members of its Group where the services being provided are material to the Exxaro business (and in no event will the Services be provided in a less than diligent manner). Exxaro will ensure that all individuals performing any
Services will have the education, training, knowledge, skill and capability necessary to perform the Services, in accordance with best industry practice. 

  

	3.2	In no event shall Tronox, with respect to any Service, be entitled to increase its use of such Service above that level of use specified in Exhibit A without the
prior written consent of Exxaro, which consent may be delegated to Exxaro employees from time to time, subject to internal rules applicable to the delegation of authority in terms of which Exxaro employees are permitted to determine the threshold
and limitations, on written notice containing such threshold or limitation, by Exxaro to Tronox. Exxaro shall accommodate Tronox, to the extent that it is commercially reasonable to do so in relation to any requests regarding an increase in the
levels of use as specified in the Exhibit A. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this TS Agreement, Exxaro shall not be required to provide the South African Acquired Companies with levels of such Service above the levels that existed
prior to the date hereof or with the advantage of systems, equipment, facilities, training, services or improvements procured, obtained or made after the date hereof. 


 

	3.3	 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Exxaro may, but is not required to, make changes from time to time in the manner in which
any Service is provided if (a) Exxaro is making similar changes in the manner in which such Service is provided to it and members of its own Group, (b) Exxaro furnishes to Tronox substantially the same notice (if any) that




  
 9 









	 	
Exxaro provides to members of its own Group with respect to such changes, and (c) such changes shall not create a substantial risk of a material disruption of the Tronox Group’s
business or of the Tronox Group’s incurring a material loss or liability. 

  

	3.4	Exxaro shall nominate a representative to act as the primary contact person for the provision of all of the Services and the General Services (the “Service
Coordinator”). The initial Service Coordinator shall be Joseph Rock (General Manager, Exxaro Services). Exxaro shall notify the relevant South African Acquired Company in writing of any change in the Service Coordinator. The South
African Acquired Companies agree that all communications pertaining to the provision of Services shall be directed, in writing to the Service Coordinator provided that such information pertains to: 


 

	 	(a)	additional expenditure or a potential loss estimated to equal or exceed US$10 000; or 


 

	 	(b)	conduct which may give rise to a breach of this Agreement or an agreement with a third party; or 


 

	 	(c)	a proposal to materially vary the content of the Services; or 

  

	 	(d)	a proposal to materially vary the manner in which the Services are to be provided; or 


 

	 	(e)	copies of notification provided in terms of clause 8.4 or clause 6.5 ; or 

  


	 	(f)	any fact, matter or circumstance of significance which could have a material effect on the provision of Services or on any provision or undertaking of this Agreement.


  

	3.5	 In order to monitor, coordinate and facilitate implementation of the terms and conditions of this TS Agreement and the General Services Agreement, the
Parties shall establish (a) a “Steering Committee” consisting of at least one senior manager from each of the Exxaro Group and the Tronox Group and whereby each such Group is equally represented and (b) an
“Operating Committee” consisting, as necessary, of one representative of each of the Exxaro Group and the Tronox Group from each functional area that is the subject of Exhibit A (for such time as Service Terms within
such functional areas are in effect). The Steering Committee shall provide general oversight of the terms and conditions of this TS Agreement and shall work in good faith to resolve any disputes arising under this TS Agreement as set forth under
Section 6. The Operating Committee shall be responsible for the day-to-day operations related to the implementation of the terms and conditions of this TS Agreement and the exhibits hereto. Exxaro shall be entitled to elect to conduct the
Steering Committee meetings and/or the Operating Committee Meetings (as the case may be) within the framework of existing internal Exxaro committee structures, in order to ensure efficiency and to avoid duplication. The initial Steering Committee
and Operating Committee representatives shall not be changed by either Group on less than ten days’ prior written notice to the Service Coordinator of the other Group. The Steering Committee shall at a minimum meet once a quarter, and more
frequently should it so agree. The Operating Committee representatives shall meet at least once a month and more frequently should it so resolve, during the Term of this TS Agreement; provided, the members of the Steering Committee and the
Operating Committee may participate in meetings of such committees by means of conference telephone, videoconferencing or other communications equipment by means of which all




  
 10 










	 	
persons participating in the meeting can hear each other. The Steering Committee and Operating Committee representative for each Group shall stay reasonably apprised of the activities of the
employees, agents and contractors of such Group who are providing or receiving the Services in order to maximize efficiency in the provision and receipt of the Services. The Steering Committing shall be authorized to approve any expense reasonably
incurred by Exxaro pursuant to the provisions of this TS Agreement. Actions of the Steering Committee shall require the approval of Steering Committee representatives from each of the Exxaro Group and the Tronox Group, and shall be reduced to
writing and recorded as an agreed minute. The Steering Committee and Operating Committee shall from time to time establish or amend a written approvals framework in terms of which the authority to inter alia amend the content of the Services
or vary the manner in which the Services are to be provided, authorize the payment or a fee or incur any liability and generally manage the day to day provision of Services, subject to the thresholds and parameters contained in the approvals
framework, is delegated to certain persons within Tronox or Exxaro. 

  

	4.	RESOURCES 

  

	4.1	In connection with the Services, the Tronox Group shall make reasonably available for consultation with the Exxaro Group those retained employees and consultants or
other service providers and employees of the Tronox Group reasonably necessary for the effective provision of such Services. Furthermore, the Tronox Group will provide the necessary access reasonably required by Exxaro to consult with the retained
employees and consultants or other service providers and employees referred to above. Tronox shall also make available to Exxaro timeously all or any relevant information and do all things reasonably required by Exxaro to enable it to provide the
Services. 

  

	4.2	The Parties confirm that nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as varying the provisions of Section 7.11 of the Transaction Agreement. To the extent that
any provision of this TS Agreement conflicts with the provision of Section 7.11 of the Transaction Agreement such provision shall be void. 

  

	5.	THIRD PARTIES 

  

	5.1	The Exxaro Group shall make reasonably available such personnel, facilities, equipment, systems and management as are required to provide a particular Service. Subject
to Section 3, Exxaro shall have the right to designate which such resources it shall assign to perform such Service and shall have the right to remove and replace any such resources at any time or designate any other members of its Group or a
third party provider to perform such Service; provided, however, that (a) Exxaro shall use commercially reasonable efforts to prevent the disruption to the South African Acquired Companies business in the transition of the Service
to different resources or another provider and (b) with respect to Services that are not currently outsourced by Exxaro to a third party, any substitution of a third party provider in connection with the provision of such Service shall be
subject to the approval of the Steering Committee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Exxaro shall remain solely responsible, in accordance with the terms of this TS Agreement, for the performance of any Service it is required to provide hereunder.



  
 11 










	5.2	With respect to Services that are currently outsourced by Exxaro to third parties, Exxaro shall reasonably assist the South African Acquired Companies in seeking to
cause such third parties to provide such Services to the South African Acquired Companies. In the event Exxaro is not able to secure the agreement of any third parties to provide Services to the South African Acquired Companies, Exxaro shall
reasonably assist the South African Acquired Companies in seeking to obtain substantially similar services from another source on substantially similar terms and conditions as those currently being provided. 


 

	5.3	If, and to the extent, required, Tronox and Exxaro shall cooperate in seeking to obtain any required transfer or assignment agreements or any other agreements necessary
to transfer Contractual rights of the Exxaro Group that existed immediately prior to the Closing Date to receive services or license software, to the extent (a) such agreements or rights are necessary for the provision of Services to the South
African Acquired Companies and (b) such rights were utilized by the Exxaro Group prior to the Closing Date. To the extent however that any such aforesaid Contractual rights contained in agreements between Exxaro and third parties are required
to remain in place by Exxaro for its own benefit, after the Signature Date, the Parties agree to use their respective reasonable commercial endeavors to obtain a partial assignment (to the extent possible) of the required Contractual rights to
ensure that any such Contractual rights reasonably required by Exxaro remain in full force and effect or to procure the conclusion of separate agreements. Such new agreements shall be in the name or for the benefit of the applicable member, or
members, of the Tronox Group. The cooperation required hereunder shall be included in the Service to which it is related. For the avoidance of doubt, the Parties agree and acknowledge that Exxaro shall not be liable under this TS Agreement for any
annual or recurring fees, including license fees, or any maintenance fees, support services fees, subscription fees or other costs relating to ongoing use by the Tronox Group stemming from a transfer to the Tronox Group pursuant to a Service
hereunder. 

  

	5.4	Exxaro shall not, after the Closing Date, enter into any agreement or contract with any third party to provide any Services hereunder pursuant to which the Tronox Group
would remain obligated to such third party upon the termination of this TS Agreement or the General Services Agreement without the Tronox Group’s prior written consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.


  

	5.5	Without prejudice to Exxaro’s obligations under Section 2.2 and Exhibit A of this TS Agreement, the Tronox Group shall be solely responsible for
acquiring or otherwise obtaining all assets and rights for third party services not otherwise obtained as a result of the expenditure of such Transition Costs, including hardware, software, information systems and other materials and third party
services, reasonably necessary in connection with any Service as contemplated by this TS Agreement. 

  

	6.	COOPERATION: AMICABLE DISPUTE RESOLUTION 

  

	6.1	The Parties shall cooperate in all matters relating to the provision and receipt of the Services. Such cooperation shall include exchanging information, providing
access to personnel, equipment, office space, electronic systems and other property and adjustments and obtaining all consents, licenses, sublicenses or approvals necessary to permit each Party to perform its obligations hereunder.



  
 12 










	6.2	In the event of a dispute under this TS Agreement, either Party may give written notice to the other Party requesting that the Steering Committee try to resolve (but
without any obligation to resolve) such dispute. Not later than ten days after said written notice, each Party shall submit to the other a written statement setting forth such Party’s description of the dispute, such Party’s position on
such dispute, such Party’s recommended resolution and the reasons why such Party feels its recommended resolution is fair and equitable in light of the terms and spirit of this TS Agreement. Such statements represent part of a good-faith effort
to resolve a dispute and as such, no statements prepared by a Party pursuant to this Section 6 may be introduced as evidence or used as an admission against interest in any arbitral or judicial resolution of such dispute.


  

	6.3	If the dispute continues unresolved for a period of five days (or such longer period as the Steering Committee may otherwise agree upon) after the simultaneous exchange
of such written statements, then the Steering Committee shall promptly commence good-faith negotiations to resolve such dispute but without any obligation to resolve it. The initial negotiating meeting may be conducted by teleconference.


  

	6.4	Not later than seven days after the commencement of negotiations under Section 6.3 above: (a) if the Steering Committee renders an agreed resolution on the
matter in dispute, then both Parties shall be bound thereby; and (b) if the Steering Committee does not render an agreed resolution, then the dispute shall be submitted for resolution pursuant to Section 6.5. 


 

	6.5	Disputes arising under this TS Agreement and not resolved by the Steering Committee within seven days under clause (a) of Section 6.4 shall be submitted in
writing to an appropriate executive officer of each Party. The executive officers shall attempt to resolve any dispute submitted to them for resolution in accordance with this Section 6.5 through consultation and negotiation, within 15 days
after such submission (or such longer period as may be mutually agreed by the Parties). Absent a resolution within such 15 days period, any dispute related to, or in connection with, this TS Agreement shall be submitted by either executive officer
of either Party for resolution by final and binding arbitration determined in accordance with Section 20. 

  

	7.	INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY 

  

	7.1	 Unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Parties, all Exxaro work product, data or other materials and deliverables provided by or on behalf of Exxaro
or any member of its Group to the South African Acquired Companies or any member of its Group in connection with the Services (collectively, “Work Product”), in whatever form or medium, and all intellectual
property rights in or to any of the foregoing owned by any member of the Exxaro Group (collectively, the “Exxaro Intellectual Property”) will remain the exclusive property of, as applicable, Exxaro or a member of its Group;
except that Exxaro and the members of its Group will grant the South African Acquired Companies and the members of its Group a non-exclusive, non-transferable, perpetual, irrevocable royalty-free, worldwide right and license to use, disclose
and otherwise exploit any Exxaro Intellectual Property to the extent that it 



  
 13 










	 	
relates to any Work Product that is non-severable or contained in, derived from, included or embedded in, or necessary or desirable to use, any work product, data, software or any other materials
or deliverables or any other intellectual property or tangible embodiments thereof generated, developed or otherwise created by or on behalf of Exxaro or the South African Acquired Companies or any member of Exxaro’s or Tronox’s
Group in the course of Exxaro’s provision of the Services. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, to the extent any Work Product is created primarily for the South African Acquired Companies or any member of its Group, or is primarily
derived from any intellectual property of the South African Acquired Companies or any member of its Group, the South African Acquired Companies will own such Work Product and all intellectual property rights therein or thereto, and Exxaro, or the
relevant member of the Exxaro Group shall do all things and sign all documents as may be necessary to formally assign any interest it may have in such Work Product. 


 

	7.2	All Work Product, data, software and any other materials or deliverables and any other intellectual property and tangible embodiments thereof generated, developed or
otherwise created by or on behalf of the South African Acquired Companies (whether in the course of Exxaro’s provision of the Services or otherwise), in whatever form or medium, and all intellectual property rights in or to any of the foregoing
will be owned by the South African Acquired Companies 

  

	7.3	The Parties acknowledge that, in agreeing on the Services to be provided by Exxaro under this TS Agreement, they may decide to allocate the ownership of intellectual
property rights arising out of Exxaro’s provision of the Services differently for certain Services in this TS Agreement. 

  

	8.	EXCEPTIONS TO EXXARO’S OBLIGATION TO PERFORM 

  

	8.1	Exxaro shall not be required to provide a Service to the extent the performance of such Service would require the Exxaro Group to violate any applicable law or would
result in the breach of any software license or other Contract with a Person not a member of the Exxaro Group but only to the extent that such breach is a consequence of the South African Acquired Companies’ failure to comply with an obligation
to own or otherwise possess such software license, or to enter into such other Contract, that is expressly set forth in this TS Agreement and is applicable to the Services to be provided by Exxaro or agreed by the Parties as necessary or desirable
for Exxaro to be able to provide the Services. 

  

	8.2	If Exxaro determines that it is no longer commercially viable to provide any Service (whether absolutely or in the manner in which the Service is to be performed) in
accordance with the terms hereof, the Parties shall meet as soon as may be practicable after Exxaro has made such a decision, and in good faith cooperate so as to determine the best alternative approach to procure the provision of the Services.
Until such alternative approach is found or the problem is otherwise resolved to the satisfaction of the Parties, Exxaro shall use commercially reasonable efforts to continue to provide such Service, and Tronox shall not be precluded from invoking
the dispute resolution provisions of section 6 should Exxaro fail so to do. 

  

	8.3	 If Exxaro is objectively unable to modify its provision of such Service and no alternate approach to procure the provision of the Services is agreed,
Exxaro will be excused from 



  
 14 










	 	
continuing to provide it without claim or penalty of any nature levied. If Exxaro is excused from providing a Service as set forth herein, then the amount payable to Exxaro for the Services will
be reduced accordingly during the period in which Exxaro is not providing such Service. To the extent the Parties agree upon an alternative approach that requires payment of amounts above and beyond what Tronox is required to pay under this TS
Agreement for such Service, such excess amounts shall be borne by Tronox, unless otherwise agreed by the Parties. Tronox may obtain replacement services or resources for the affected Service from a third party for the duration of such delay or
inability to perform, and Tronox shall be liable for the payment of such substitute Services. Exxaro shall provide reasonable assistance in identifying a suitable third party and shall assist Tronox in negotiating favourable terms of such.


  

	8.4	Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, 

  

	 	(a)	if either of the South African Acquired Companies (i) elect to decommission, replace, modify or change its information technology or communications systems or any
other aspect of its business relationship relating to a Service in a manner that prevents Exxaro from providing such Service as required hereunder (in the understanding that Tronox shall provide Exxaro with five Business Days prior notice of any
such election), or (ii) fail to acquire the hardware, software, information systems or other materials or third party services reasonably necessary for any Service pursuant to Section 5.5 of this TS Agreement and such failure prevents
Exxaro from providing such Service as required hereunder, then, in each case, Exxaro shall have no liability whatsoever with respect to the effectiveness or quality of such Service and, following five Business Days prior written notice to Tronox,
Exxaro shall be excused from the performance of such Service; 

  

	 	(b)	if Tronox is unable, despite Exxaro’s reasonable assistance in accordance with Section 5.2 of this TS Agreement and Exxaro’s cooperation in accordance
with Section 6.1 of this TS Agreement, to secure the agreement of third parties with whom Exxaro has outsourced certain Services to provide such Services to the Tronox Group, Exxaro shall have no liability whatsoever with respect to the
effectiveness or quality of any Service that is prevented, hindered, or delayed thereby and, following five Business Days prior written notice to Tronox, Exxaro shall be excused from the performance of such Service; 


 

	 	(c)	if Tronox is unable, despite Exxaro’s cooperation in accordance with Sections 5.3 and 6.1 of this TS Agreement, to obtain any required transfer or assignment
agreements or any other equivalent agreements necessary to transfer Contractual rights of the Exxaro Group that existed immediately prior to the Closing Date, Exxaro shall have no liability whatsoever with respect to the effectiveness or quality of
any Service that is prevented, hindered, or delayed thereby and, following five Business Days prior written notice to Tronox, Exxaro shall be excused from the performance of such Service; and 


 

	 	(d)	 Exxaro may suspend performance and the Tronox Group’s access to information technology or communications systems used by the Exxaro Group if, in
Exxaro’s 



  
 15 










	 	
reasonable judgment, the integrity, security or performance of such systems, or any data stored thereon, is being or is likely to be jeopardized by the activities of any member of the Tronox
Group, its employees, agents, representatives or contractors. 

  

	8.5	It shall not be a breach of this TS Agreement and the Parties shall not be liable for delay in performance or nonperformance of any term or condition of this TS
Agreement directly or indirectly resulting from any fire, explosion, accident, disease, illness, flood, labor trouble or stoppage, civil disorder, war, terrorism (or threat thereof), atmospheric or weather condition, acts of God or any other causes
beyond a party’s reasonable control (each, a “Force Majeure Event”). Upon the occurrence of any Force Majeure Event, the Party so affected in the discharge of its obligation shall promptly give written notice of such
event to the other Party. The affected Party shall make every reasonable effort to remove or remedy the cause of such Force Majeure Event or mitigate its effect as quickly as may be possible. If such occurrence results in the suspension of all
or part of the Services for 30 days, the Parties shall meet and determine the appropriate measures to be taken. Any delay or failure in performance by either Party thereto shall not constitute default hereunder or give rise to any claims for damages
or loss of anticipated profits if, and to the extent that such delay or failure is caused by a Force Majeure Event. In a Force Majeure Event, Exxaro shall not be entitled to any compensation for any part of, or all of, the Services that is suspended
because of such Force Majeure Event. 

  

	9.	PAYMENT AND AUDIT RIGHTS 

  

	9.1	Generally. 

  

	  	In consideration of each Service provided hereunder, during the Term of this TS Agreement, the South African Acquired Companies shall pay to Exxaro, on a monthly basis,
an amount equal to the Service Costs attributable to the Services provided by the Exxaro Group during the prior month period. Services provided by the Exxaro Group to the South African Acquired Companies under this TS Agreement will have priority
over the Services provided under the General Service Agreement, and Exxaro shall not separately invoice the South African Acquired Companies under the Services Agreement, nor shall the South African Acquired Companies owe any amounts hereunder, for
any Services that may be characterized as Services under the Services Agreement and the General Services Agreement. With respect to any particular Service, if any, requiring additional payment by the South African Acquired Companies, the South
African Acquired Companies shall pay Exxaro in accordance with the specifications set forth on the Exhibits. To the extent that, during the Term, the Parties use their reasonable commercial efforts to mutually agree to modify, amend, delete or add
to the Services, the Parties shall cooperate to determine an equitable adjustment to the amounts paid by the South African Acquired Companies to Exxaro. For the avoidance of doubt however, no amendments to any of the Services, any Service Costs or
anything else relating to this TS Agreement shall become effective and binding on the Parties until reduced to writing and signed by each Party’s respective authorized representatives. 


  
 16 










	9.2	Invoices. 

 With respect
to the Services actually provided, Exxaro shall invoice the South African Acquired Companies the South African Acquired Companies on a monthly basis for all amounts due to Exxaro hereunder with respect to such Services. For the avoidance of doubt,
it is hereby understood that, unless mutually agreed in writing among the Parties, amounts due hereunder shall consist solely of Service Costs. Such invoices shall be accompanied by a reasonable accounting of all invoiced amounts, all third party
invoices and receipts related to such invoiced amounts and such other supporting documentation as may be reasonably requested by the South African Acquired Companies. 
  

	9.3	Payment. 

 The relevant
South African Acquired Company shall pay Exxaro for any properly invoiced amounts within 30 days of receipt of the invoice and other information required by Section 9.2; provided, however, that if the relevant South African
Acquired Company shall have a bona fide dispute with the amount invoiced, then the relevant South African Acquired Company shall pay only the undisputed amount at such time, and the Parties shall seek to resolve such dispute in accordance with
Section 6 of this TS Agreement. Unless the Parties otherwise agree, all payments hereunder shall be made by deposit of South African Rand in the requisite amount to such bank account as Exxaro may from time to time designate by notice to the
South African Acquired Companies. Late payments of undisputed amounts (or payments of disputed amounts which are determined under this TS Agreement to be payable by the South African Acquired Companies) shall bear interest at the published one-month
JIBAR Rate plus 2% per annum. 
  

	9.4	Quarterly Reconciliation. 


Exxaro shall at the end of each quarter, reconcile the monthly invoices issued against the Services provided for the preceding quarter, so
as to ensure the accuracy of the invoices issued in such period. To the extent that Tronox has been overcharged or undercharged for the provision of any Service, Exxaro shall reflect such sum as to Tronox’s credit or debit (as the case may be)
in the following monthly invoice issued in terms of clause 9.2. Such figure shall be reflected clearly as a separate line item on the invoice as either a debit or credit with a brief explanation for the inclusion (“adjustment
amount”). As regards credit amounts, Tronox shall pay the difference between the amount charged for Services under the monthly invoice and the amount reflected to its credit. Where an additional amount is indicated as a debit, Tronox shall
pay the sum of the two figures. No interest shall be included in or levied on an adjustment amount. 
  

	9.5	Financial Statements and Statutory Audits 

 The Parties will each make their respective management teams reasonably available to assist the South African Acquired Companies from time to time to respond to requests related to the preparation,
analysis and discussion of its financial statements (annual and interim as applicable). Such access and will include, without limitation: (i) preparation of pro forma financial information, (ii) preparation of projections,
(iii) conforming of accounting policies, (iv) preparation of Tronox’s and/or its Affiliate(s)’ SEC filings, (v) other periodic financial reporting and related analysis, (vi) issuance by Tronox’s
auditor’s of “comfort letters” pursuant to SAS 

  
 17 









 
72, (vii) responding to SEC comment letters (viii) any other similar or related item of information reasonably required by Tronox or its advisors and (viii) Exxaro shall only be
required to provide the services referred to in items (i) to (viii) above to the extent that it relates to the South African Acquired Companies. Access to the Parties’ respective management teams for the aforementioned purposes shall
be on a timely basis in order to facilitate Tronox’s and/or its Affiliate(s)’ periodic financial reporting and financing activities (to the extent that it relates to the South African Acquired Companies). In the event that the obligation
to provide the services referred to in items (i) to (viii) necessitates the acquisition of additional resources, the Parties record that provided such matter will be raised with, and approved by, Tronox prior to the acquisition of such
resources, the reasonable and direct costs occasioned by the acquisition of such additional resources will be borne by Tronox. 
  

	9.6	The Parties’ respective management teams will direct and assist Tronox’s auditors to provide all necessary reasonable assistance to Tronox and/or its
Affiliate(s) and Tronox’s and/or its Affiliate(s)’ auditors in relation to: (i) the preparation of pro forma financial information, (ii) analysis of financial reporting, (iii) responding to SEC comment letters, and
(iv) transitioning of auditors (including access to working papers) and such other reasonable assistance as such auditor’s may require in connection with such and other related activities; provided that such assistance will be
treated and invoiced as a Service. Exxaro will only be required to provide the abovementioned services (contained in items (i) to (iv) above) to the extent that they relate to the South African Acquired Companies 


 

	9.7	Taxes. 

  

	 	(a)	Any Taxes assessed and levied on the provision of any Service hereunder shall be included in the Service Costs of such Services. 


 

	 	(b)	All Services are provided exclusive of VAT. 

  

	10.	CONFIDENTIALITY 

  

	10.1	 With respect to any Service, Tronox agrees that (a) all software, hardware or data store, procedures and materials provided to the South African
Acquired Companies by or on behalf of Exxaro in connection with such Service are solely for the use of the South African Acquired Companies and members of its Group solely for purposes of using such Services during the Term (provided that benefits
received by third parties in the ordinary course of business conducted with the South African Acquired Companies shall not be subject to this Section 10); (b) title to any software, hardware or data store or any other intellectual property
or proprietary right of any kind used in performing such Service shall, as between the South African Acquired Companies and Exxaro, remain in Exxaro; (c) Neither Tronox nor the South African Acquired Companies shall copy, modify, reverse
engineer, decompile, distribute or in any way alter or make derivative works of any software, hardware or data store used in performing such Service without Exxaro’s prior written consent; and (d) Tronox shall, and shall cause the member
of the Tronox Group to, comply with any and all usage guidelines pertaining to any Service and provided by or on behalf of Exxaro, including any and all usage guidelines pertaining to software, data, or other intellectual property or proprietary
rights. Notwithstanding the foregoing any software, hardware, data store, procedures or materials 



  
 18 









 
purchased for Tronox pursuant to Section 2.2 of this TS Agreement in connection with a Service or the independent functionality of Tronox, and any assets acquired or purchased by Tronox for
its own account, shall not be subject to this Section 10.1. 
  

	10.2	The Parties acknowledge that, pursuant to the mutual provision of Services or as a result of the transfer of certain business operations and assets (including
information technology, software and hardware) contemplated by the Transaction Agreement, each Party shall possess or have access (intentionally or inadvertently) to information that belongs to the other Party or has commercial value in that other
Party’s business, and is not in the public domain, including information relating to its customers, suppliers, finances, operations, facilities and markets (“Confidential Information”). Neither Party shall disclose, use,
sell, assign, lease nor otherwise dispose of the other Party’s Confidential Information, except as otherwise expressly permitted by this TS Agreement or the Transaction Agreement. Exxaro shall not, and shall use its commercially reasonable
efforts to ensure that the Exxaro Group and its employees, contractors and other agents do not, use the Services to access any of Tronox’s Confidential Information that is outside the scope of the Service provided. Nothing in this
Section 10.2 shall be construed as obligating any Party hereto to disclose its Confidential Information to any other Party, or as granting to or conferring on another Party, expressly or by implication, any rights or license to its Confidential
Information, provided that the Parties acknowledge that, in order to perform the Services, Exxaro shall have custody of and usage of certain Tronox’s Confidential Information, and Tronox hereby grants to Exxaro the right to do so in accordance
with this TS Agreement. 

  

	10.3	Notwithstanding Section 10.2, Information is not Confidential Information to the extent that: (a) the information is or becomes publicly available through no
fault of the Party which received the information from the other Party; (b) the same information is rightfully in the possession of a Party prior to receipt of that information from another Party; provided, however that Tronox
information or data that is in Exxaro’s possession prior to the Closing Date and is otherwise Confidential Information of Tronox shall be Confidential Information; (c) the same information is independently developed (without the use of
another Party’s Confidential Information) by the Party which received that information from such other Party; or (d) the same information becomes available to a Party on a non-confidential basis from a source other than another Party
hereto, which source, to the knowledge of the disclosing Party, is not prohibited from disclosing that information by a legal, contractual or fiduciary obligations to the Party about whom such information pertains. 


 

	10.4	Notwithstanding Section 10.2, a Party hereto shall not have violated the terms of this Section 10 for disclosing Confidential Information:


  

	 	(a)	to third parties performing services required under this TS Agreement where (i) use of that Confidential Information by that third party is authorized under this
TS Agreement; or (ii) disclosure is reasonably necessary or typically occurs in the natural course of the third party’s duties; provided, in each case, that the third party has executed a written confidentiality agreement under
which the third party is obligated to maintain the confidentiality of the Confidential Information in a manner substantially equivalent to this TS Agreement, to the extent that such party is not already bound by a confidentiality undertaking, in
which case there shall be no requirement for such party to enter into a written confidentiality agreement as contemplated in this clause; 


  
 19 










	 	(b)	in order to comply with any applicable Laws; provided that as soon as practicable and legally permitted the disclosing Party shall notify the Party whose
Confidential Information was or is to be disclosed of the disclosure or possible disclosure under this subsection; or 

  

	 	(c)	to the disclosing Party’s independent auditors. 

  

	11.	TERM 

  

	11.1	The term of this TS Agreement (the “Term”) shall commence on the Closing Date and, unless earlier terminated in accordance with
Section 11.2, shall continue until the End Date. This TS Agreement may only be extended by written agreement of the Parties as evidenced by the signature of authorized representatives of such Parties. 


 

	11.2	Notwithstanding the foregoing, the termination dates of any Service shall be as may set forth in Exhibit A; 


 

	11.3	With respect to any Service, Tronox may terminate the term of such Service upon 90 days notice to Exxaro; provided, further, that if the Exxaro has appointed or
otherwise engaged any employee, agent or subcontractor primarily for the purpose of rendering any of the Services to Tronox, the termination provisions of the relevant agreements shall prevail over this Section 11.3 unless Exxaro elects to make
payment in accordance with the provision of Section 12.3(a). 

  

	12.	CONSEQUENCES OF TERMINATION 

  

	12.1	Termination or expiration of this TS Agreement for any reason shall be without prejudice to any rights that shall have accrued to the benefit of a Party prior to such
termination or expiration. Such termination, relinquishment, or expiration shall not relieve a Party from obligations that are expressly indicated to survive the termination or expiration of this TS Agreement. 


 

	12.2	Upon termination or expiration of this TS Agreement, each Party, at the request of the other, shall return all relevant records and materials in its possession or
control containing or comprising the other Party’s information and to which the returning Party does not retain rights hereunder (except one copy of which may be retained in such files for archival purposes) 


 

	12.3	If, as a consequence of termination of a particular Service, or as a result of termination or expiry of this TS Agreement and in addition and subject to the provisions
of Section 11.3 of this TS Agreement and Section 7.11 of the Transaction Agreement: 

  

	 	(a)	 To the extent that Exxaro, appoints a new employee, agent or subcontractor for the specific purpose of rendering a service to Tronox, such appointment
having been approved by Tronox, Exxaro shall, in the first instance, using its reasonable 



  
 20 










	 	
endeavors, attempt to redeploy such a person within Exxaro. If, and for whatever reason, such person exits the employment of Exxaro, Tronox shall pay the reasonable and direct costs incurred by
Exxaro arising out of such person’s exit. Nothing in the clause shall relieve Exxaro of its obligations to any employee or contractor incurred in terms of South African labour laws. For the avoidance of doubt, based on the current circumstances
anticipated with regards to the Transitional Services detailed in Exhibit A of this TS Agreement, Exxaro does not expect to require additional employees, agents or subcontractors to deliver these services. 


 

	13.	DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES 


EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED HEREIN, THE SERVICES TO BE PROVIDED UNDER THIS TS AGREEMENT ARE FURNISHED AS IS, WHERE IS, AND WITHOUT
WARRANTY OF ANY KIND EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, ADEQUACY, OR COMPLIANCE WITH ANY LAW, DOMESTIC OR FOREIGN. 

 

	14.	DAMAGES 

 NOTWITHSTANDING
ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY CONTAINED HEREIN, EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH HEREIN, NO PARTY SHALL BE LIABLE TO ANY OTHER PARTY (INCLUDING ITS RESPECTIVE HEIRS, LEGAL REPRESENTATIVES, SUCCESSORS OR ASSIGNS, AS THE CASE MAY BE, HEREUNDER) FOR ANY LOSSES
THAT ARE NOT REASONABLY FORESEEABLE OR ANY DAMAGES FOR THE LOSS OF PROFITS, BUSINESS, ANTICIPATED SAVINGS, GOODWILL, OR THE LOSS OF OR DAMAGE TO DATA OR ANY OTHER INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THIS TS
AGREEMENT OR ITS TERMINATION OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED BY THIS TS AGREEMENT, WHETHER FOR BREACH OF REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY OR COVENANT OR OTHER AGREEMENT OR ANY OBLIGATION ARISING THEREFROM OR OTHERWISE, WHETHER LIABILITY IS ASSERTED IN
CONTRACT OR DELICT (INCLUDING, NEGLIGENCE AND STRICT PRODUCT LIABILITY) AND REGARDLESS OF WHETHER SUCH PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF ANY SUCH LOSS OR DAMAGE. EACH PARTY HEREBY WAIVES ANY CLAIMS THAT THESE EXCLUSIONS DEPRIVE SUCH PARTY
OF AN ADEQUATE REMEDY. 
  

	15.	INDEMNIFICATION 

  

	15.1	 Exxaro hereby does and will indemnify, defend and hold harmless Tronox and each member of the Tronox Group and their respective Affiliates, officers,

member of the Tronox Group is a party to such license or other Contract but only to the extent that a Loss is proximately caused by the gross negligence, willful misconduct or fraud of Exxaro; except in the case of items (ii)-(iv), to the
extent a Loss is proximately caused by (A) the gross negligence, willful misconduct or fraud of Tronox and/or the Acquired Companies (as the case may be)or (B) Tronox’s failure to arrange for appropriate intellectual property licenses
or consents under Contracts which it (or any member of its Group) is a party and with respect to which Tronox and/or the South African Acquired Companies (as the case may be)knew, or reasonably should have known, that such licenses or consents would
be required in order for Exxaro to perform any Service and had an obligation to obtain such licenses or consents under the TS Agreement (provided that neither Exxaro nor any member of its Group provided any such Services if Exxaro or any member of
its Group knew, or reasonably should have known, that any required license(s) or consent(s) were not yet obtained). 

  

	15.2	Tronox and the South African Acquired Companies will indemnify, defend and hold harmless Exxaro and each member of the Exxaro Group and their respective Affiliates,
officers, directors, employees, stockholders, agents and representatives in respect of all Losses related to or arising from, (i) any breach by Tronox and/or the South African Acquired Companies (as the case may be)or any member of the Tronox
Group of any representation, warranty, covenant or other obligation of the Transition Services Agreement; (ii) any violation of Law that is proximately caused by the gross negligence, willful misconduct or fraud of Tronox ; (iii) a Third
Party IP Claim that is proximately caused by the gross negligence, willful misconduct or fraud of Tronox and/or the Acquired Companies (as the case may be) or the failure of Tronox and/or the South African Acquired Companies (as the case may be) to

Services and had an obligation to obtain such licenses under the TS Agreement (provided that neither Exxaro nor any member of its Group provided any such Services if Exxaro or any member of its Group knew, or reasonably should have known, that any
required license(s) were not yet obtained); (iv) any Third Party Contract Claim where any member of the Tronox Group is a party, except to the extent a Loss is proximately caused by the gross negligence, willful misconduct or fraud of Exxaro;

At all times during the term of this TS Agreement, Exxaro shall be an independent contractor in providing the Services hereunder with the

create any liability whatsoever of any member of the Exxaro Group with respect to the indebtedness, Losses, obligations or actions of the other party or any of its respective officers, directors, employees, stockholders, agents or representatives,
