(a) Taxes Upon Filing and Adjusted Taxes. The Party responsible for the preparation of a Tax Return pursuant to Sections 3.1 and 3.2
shall pay to the relevant Taxing Authority all Taxes due or payable in connection with such Tax Return (including any amounts relating to adjustments to such Tax Return) and shall be entitled to any refunds (including, for the avoidance of doubt,
any similar credit or offset against Taxes) in connection therewith; provided, however, with respect to any Income Tax Return (other than a Consolidated Return or any Tax Return in respect of Afghani Taxes) of Vectrus or any Vectrus Subsidiary for
(i) any taxable period that ends on or before the Distribution Date, Exelis shall be liable for, and shall be entitled to any refunds of, Income Taxes (including any amounts relating to adjustments to such Income Tax Return) relating to such
taxable period and (ii) any taxable period that begins before and includes but does not end on the Distribution Date, Exelis shall be liable for, and shall be entitled to any refunds of, Income Taxes (including any amounts relating to
adjustments to such Income Tax Return) relating to the portion of the taxable period ending on the Distribution Date and Vectrus shall be liable for, and shall be entitled to any refunds of, Income Taxes relating to the portion of the taxable period
beginning after the Distribution Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Exelis shall be liable for Taxes (other than Income Taxes) for which Exelis or any Exelis Subsidiary is responsible under applicable law, and Vectrus shall be liable for Taxes
(other than Income Taxes) for which Vectrus or any Vectrus Subsidiary is responsible under applicable law; provided, however, that Exelis shall be responsible for any Taxes (other than Income Taxes) arising with respect to the assets transferred to
TARS for any taxable period (or portion thereof) that begins on or after October 1, 2013 and any contracts transferred to Exelis pursuant to the SGRS Distribution Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parties shall be responsible for any
Income Taxes (other than Separation Taxes) for (a) any taxable period that ends on or before the Distribution Date and (b) for the portion of the taxable period ending on the Distribution Date of any taxable period that begins before and
includes but does not end on the Distribution Date, in each case for (x) for all Income Tax Returns (including any adjustments thereto) filed pursuant to Section 3.1 of Exelis, Vectrus, any Exelis Subsidiary or any Vectrus Subsidiary and
(y) for all Income Tax Returns (including any adjustments thereto) (other than a Consolidated Return) of Vectrus or any Vectrus Subsidiary, in each case other than any Income Taxes arising as a result of any deferred intercompany item (or any
similar item under state, local or foreign Tax law) resulting from the transactions undertaken pursuant to the SGRS Distribution Agreement being taken into account in connection with the Distributions pursuant to Section 1502 of the Code and
the regulations promulgated thereunder (or any similar provision of state, local or foreign Tax law) or any estimated Income Tax payments in respect of the quarterly period ended September 30, 2014 or Income Tax payments due with respect to any
initial extension of any Income Tax Return for any taxable period that ends on the Distribution Date or December 31, 2014 (collectively, “Shared Taxes”), in accordance with their respective Sharing Percentages if (and to the
extent) Exelis would be responsible hereunder for an amount of such Shared Taxes in excess of $3,300,000; provided, however, that Income Taxes shall not be considered Shared Taxes to the extent Exelis or any Exelis Subsidiary is indemnified for such
Income Taxes under any Tax Sharing Agreement. Any refunds of Shared Taxes that are received by Exelis or any Exelis Subsidiary (or otherwise paid over to Exelis pursuant to this Section 2.1(a)) shall be treated as reducing the amount of Shared
Taxes for which Exelis has been responsible hereunder (but 

  
 5 








 
only to the extent that Exelis or any Exelis Subsidiary is entitled to retain such refund). If any Shared Taxes have been shared by the Parties in accordance with their Sharing Percentages, the
Party that receives any refund of Shared Taxes shall make payments to the other Party in accordance with their respective Sharing Percentages to reflect the prior liability, if any, for Shared Taxes. For the purposes of this Section 2.1(a), (i)
Taxes imposed on a periodic basis (such as real or personal property Taxes) shall be apportioned between the two portions of a taxable period in accordance with the Pro-Rated Method and (ii) Taxes not described in clause (i) above (such as franchise
Taxes, Taxes that are based upon or related to income or receipts, based upon occupancy or imposed in connection with any sale or other transfer or assignment of property) shall be apportioned between the two portions of a taxable period in
accordance with the Closing of the Books Method. 
 (b) Separation Taxes. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 2.1 to the
contrary, and except as provided in Article IV, Exelis shall be liable for, and shall be entitled to any refunds of, any Taxes for a taxable period that begins before the Distribution Date that are (i) imposed or incurred as a result of any
Distribution failing to qualify as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1)(D) and Section 355 of the Code (or any similar provision of state, local or foreign Tax law), (ii) imposed or incurred as a result of the
stock of Vectrus distributed in the External Distribution or the stock of Exelis Holdings distributed in the Internal Distribution failing to be treated as qualified property pursuant to Section 355(d) or Section 355(e) of the Code (or any
similar provision of state, local or foreign Tax law) and (iii) imposed or incurred as a result of Exelis or Systems otherwise recognizing any gain for Income Tax purposes in connection with any Distribution (other than as a result of any
deferred intercompany item (or any similar item under state, local or foreign Tax law) generated by transactions other than any Distribution or the Plan of Separation being taken into account in connection with the Distributions pursuant to
Section 1502 of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder (or any similar provision of state, local or foreign Tax law)) (collectively, “Separation Taxes”). 

SECTION 2.2. Indemnity. 

(a) Subject to Article IV, Exelis shall indemnify Vectrus and its Affiliates from all liability for Taxes for which Exelis is responsible
pursuant to Section 2.1 and any related Losses. 
 (b) Subject to Article IV, Vectrus shall indemnify Exelis and its Affiliates from
all liability for Taxes for which Vectrus is responsible pursuant to Section 2.1 and any related Losses. 
 (c) Unless otherwise agreed
in writing, the indemnifying Party shall pay to the indemnified Party the amount required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.2(a) or (b) above within thirty (30) days of being notified of the amount due by the indemnified Party. The
notice by the indemnified Party requesting such payment shall be accompanied by the calculations and other information used to determine the indemnifying Party’s obligations hereunder. Such payment shall be paid by the indemnifying Party to the
indemnified Party by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by the indemnified Party by written notice to the indemnifying Party prior to the due date of such payment. 

SECTION 2.3. Contests. 

(a) Subject to Article IV, the right to control the conduct of any Proceeding shall belong to the Party responsible, pursuant to Sections 3.1
and 3.2, for the preparation of the Tax Return to which such Proceeding relates. If the Party not controlling a Proceeding could have an indemnification obligation for an adjustment to Tax pursuant to such Proceeding, such Party shall be entitled to
participate in (but not control) such Proceeding at its own cost and expense; provided, however, that if Vectrus controls the Proceeding, it shall not settle such Proceeding in a manner that would result in an indemnity payment


  
 6 








 
from Exelis under this Agreement without the consent of Exelis (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed); provided, further, that if Vectrus controls such Proceeding
it may settle such Proceeding without the consent of Exelis so long as Vectrus waives its indemnification rights hereunder in respect of such Proceeding. 

(b) After the Distribution Date, each Party shall promptly notify the other Party in writing upon receipt of written notice of the
commencement of any Proceeding or of any demand or claim upon it, which, if determined adversely, would be grounds for indemnification from such other Party pursuant to Section 2.2; provided that failure to provide notice pursuant to this
sentence shall not relieve any Party of its obligations pursuant to this Agreement except to the extent such Party is actually prejudiced as a result thereof. Each Party shall, on a timely basis, keep the other Party informed of all developments in
the Proceeding and provide such other Party with copies of all pleadings, briefs, orders, and other correspondence pertaining thereto. 

SECTION 2.4. Treatment of Payments; After Tax Basis. 

(a) Unless otherwise required by a Final Determination, this Agreement or as otherwise agreed to between the Parties, any payment made
pursuant to this Agreement (other than any payment of interest pursuant to Section 2.4(d)) by: (i) Vectrus to Exelis shall be treated for all Tax purposes as a distribution by Vectrus to Exelis with respect to the stock of Vectrus
occurring immediately before the External Distribution; or (ii) Exelis to Vectrus shall be treated for all Tax purposes as a tax-free contribution by Exelis to Vectrus with respect to its stock occurring after Vectrus is directly owned by
Exelis and immediately before the External Distribution; and in each case, no Party shall take any position inconsistent with such treatment. In the event that a Taxing Authority asserts that a Party’s treatment of a payment pursuant to this
Agreement should be other than as required pursuant to this Agreement (ignoring any potential inconsistent or adverse Final Determination), such Party shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to contest such challenge. 

(b) If the receipt or accrual of any payment pursuant to this Agreement (other than payments of interest pursuant to Section 2.4(d))
results in taxable income to the indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates, such payment shall be increased so that, after the payment of any Taxes with respect to the payment, the indemnified Party and its Affiliates shall have realized the same
net amount they would have realized had the payment not resulted in taxable income. 
 (c) To the extent that any liability for Taxes or
Losses that is subject to indemnification under this Agreement gives rise to a deduction, credit or other Tax benefit to the indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates, the amount of any payment made under this Agreement shall be decreased by taking
into account any actual reduction in Taxes (determined on a with and without basis) of the indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates resulting from such Tax benefit (including as a result of any election set forth in Section 4.5). If
(i) such actual reduction in Taxes of the indemnified Party or its Affiliate occurs in a taxable period following the period in which the indemnification payment is made or (ii) any adjustment to the liability for Taxes for which one Party
or any Affiliates is responsible hereunder gives rise to a deduction, credit or other Tax benefit (including as a result of any election set forth in Section 4.5) to the other Party or any of its Affiliates, the indemnified Party (or, in the
case of (ii), the other Party) shall on an annual basis pay the indemnifying Party (or, in the case of (ii), the responsible Party) the amount of the actual reduction in Taxes (determined on a with and without basis); provided, however, that no such
payment shall be required if the actual reduction in Taxes for the relevant year and any unpaid reduction in Taxes for all prior years is less than $50,000. 

(d) Payments made pursuant to this Agreement that are not made within the period prescribed in this Agreement or, if no period is prescribed,
within thirty (30) days after demand for payment is made 

  
 7 








 
(the “Payment Period”) shall bear interest for the period from and including the date immediately following the last date of the Payment Period through and including the date of
payment at a rate of simple interest per annum equal to LIBOR. Such interest will be payable at the same time as the payment to which it relates and shall be calculated on the basis of a year of 365 days and the actual number of days for which due.

4.05(1)(b) of Rev. Proc. 96-30, 1996-1 C.B. 696, (v) cease the active conduct of its trade or business within the meaning of Section 355(b) of the Code or the active conduct of the Vectrus Business, (vi) enter into any negotiations,
agreements or arrangements with respect to transactions or events (including any transactions described in Sections 4.2(i)-(iv) (and, for this purpose, including any redemptions made pursuant to open market stock repurchase programs), stock
issuances (pursuant to the exercise of options or otherwise), option grants, capital contributions or acquisitions, entering into any partnership or joint venture arrangements, or a series of such transactions or events, but excluding any
Distribution) that may cause any Distribution to be treated as part of a plan pursuant to which one or more persons acquire directly or indirectly stock of Vectrus or Systems representing a “35-


  
 10 








 
percent or greater interest” (i.e., stock possessing at least 35 percent of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock entitled to vote or at least 35 percent of the total value
of shares of all classes of stock, as such terms are used in Section 355(d)(4) of the Code), or (vii) take any other action (or series of actions), or permit any Subsidiary to take any such action (or series of actions), where the taking
of such action (or series of actions) could reasonably be expected to cause any Distribution to fail to qualify under Section 355 of the Code or cause the stock of Vectrus or Systems distributed in any Distribution to fail to be treated as
qualified property pursuant to Section 355(e) of the Code (the acts listed in (i)-(vii) collectively, the “Prohibited Acts”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Vectrus (and Systems, if applicable) (the “Requesting
Party”) may take any of the Prohibited Acts, subject to Section 4.3, if (x) the Requesting Party first obtains (at its expense) an opinion in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Exelis of a nationally recognized law firm
or a “big four” accounting firm reasonably acceptable to Exelis, which opinion may be based on usual and customary factual representations (reasonably acceptable to Exelis) or (y) at the Requesting Party’s request, Exelis (at the
expense of the Requesting Party) obtains a ruling from the IRS, that such Prohibited Act or Prohibited Acts, and any transaction related thereto, will not (a) affect (i) any of the conclusions set forth in the Opinion, (ii) the
qualification of any Distribution as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1)(D) and Section 355 of the Code (or any similar provision of state, local or foreign Tax law), (ii) imposed or incurred as a result of the
stock of Vectrus distributed in the External Distribution or the stock of Exelis Holdings distributed in the Internal Distribution failing to be treated as qualified property pursuant to Section 355(d) or Section 355(e) of the Code (or any
similar provision of state, local or foreign Tax law) and (iii) the nonrecognition of gain to Exelis in the External Distribution and the Plan of Separation and Systems in the Internal Distribution and the Plan of Separation, or (b) cause
the stock of Vectrus distributed in the External Distribution or the stock of Holdings distributed in the Internal Distribution to fail to be treated as qualified property pursuant to Sections 355(d) or 355(e) of the Code (or any similar provision
of state, local or foreign Tax law). Vectrus (and Systems, if applicable) may also take any of the Prohibited Acts, subject to Section 4.3, with the consent of the other Party in its sole and absolute discretion. During the Restricted Period, a
Party shall provide all information reasonably requested by the other Party relating to any transaction involving an acquisition (directly or indirectly) of the stock of Exelis, Holdings, Vectrus or Systems within the meaning of Section 355(e)
of the Code. 
 SECTION 4.3. Indemnification for Distribution Taxes. If, after the External Distribution, a Party or any of its
Affiliates takes any action or enters into any agreement to take any action, including any of the Prohibited Acts as defined in Section 4.2 of this Agreement, or if there is a breach by any Party of Section 4.1 hereof, or if there is any
direct or indirect acquisition of a Party’s stock (or, in the case of Exelis, Holdings’s stock, or, in the case of Vectrus, Systems’s stock), and as a result any Separation Taxes are imposed or incurred, then such Party (the
“Breaching Party”) shall indemnify and hold harmless the other Party (the “Non-Breaching Party”) and any of its Affiliates against any such Separation Taxes (and any related Losses) imposed upon or incurred by the
Non-Breaching Party or any of its Affiliates (and any Separation Taxes of Exelis shareholders to the extent the Non-Breaching Party or any of its Affiliates is liable with respect to such Separation Taxes, whether to a Taxing Authority, to a
shareholder or to any other person) as a result, unless such Separation Taxes would, in any event, have been imposed upon or incurred by the Non-Breaching Party or any or its Affiliates without regard to such actions, breaches or events, as
determined at such time. The Non-Breaching Party and any of its Affiliates shall be indemnified and held harmless under this Section 4.3 without regard to whether an opinion pertaining to the action pursuant to Section 4.2 was obtained,
and without regard to whether the Non-Breaching Party gave its consent to such action pursuant to Section 4.2 or otherwise. 
 SECTION
4.4. Procedural Matters. 
 (a) Notice. If either Vectrus or Exelis (or any of their Affiliates) receives any written notice
of deficiency, claim or adjustment or any other written communication from a Taxing Authority that may 

  
 11 








 
result in an Indemnified Liability, the Party receiving (or whose Affiliate has received) such notice or communication shall promptly give written notice thereof to the other Party, provided that
any delay in such notification shall not relieve the indemnifying Party of any liability to the other Party hereunder except to the extent the indemnifying Party is materially and adversely prejudiced by such delay. Vectrus and Exelis (and any of
their Affiliates) undertake and agree that from and after such time as any Party obtains knowledge that any representative of a Taxing Authority has begun to investigate or inquire into any Distribution (whether or not such investigation or inquiry
is a formal or informal investigation or inquiry), such Party (the “Knowledge Party”), shall (i) notify the other Party thereof, provided that any delay by any Knowledge Party in so notifying the other Party shall not relieve
such other Party of any liability hereunder, except to the extent such other Party is materially and adversely prejudiced by such delay, (ii) consult with the other Party from time to time as to the conduct of such investigation or inquiry,
(iii) provide the other Party with copies of all correspondence between the Knowledge Party or its representatives and such Taxing Authority or any representative thereof pertaining to such investigation or inquiry, and (iv) cooperate with
the other Party to permit a representative (reasonably satisfactory to the Knowledge Party) of the other Party to be present at, and participate in (but not control), all meetings with such Taxing Authority or any representative thereof pertaining
to such investigation or inquiry, provided, that any costs relating to the other Party’s representation at such meetings shall be borne by such Party. 

(b) Tax Proceedings Controlled by Exelis. With respect to any Proceeding that may result in an Indemnified Liability with respect to
which Vectrus would be entitled to indemnification from Exelis, Exelis shall be entitled to direct and control the defense or settlement of such Proceeding at its own expense. 

(c) Tax Proceedings Controlled by Vectrus. With respect to any Proceeding that may result in an Indemnified Liability with respect to
which Exelis would be entitled to indemnification from Vectrus, Vectrus shall be entitled to direct and control the defense or settlement of such Proceeding at its own expense; provided that Vectrus shall not settle such Proceeding without the prior
written consent of Exelis (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). Vectrus undertakes and agrees to (i) consult with Exelis from time to time as to the conduct of any such Proceeding over which it exercises direction and
control, (iii) provide Exelis with copies of all correspondence between Vectrus or its representatives and such Taxing Authority or any representative thereof pertaining to such Proceeding, and (iv) cooperate with Exelis to permit a
representative (reasonably satisfactory to Vectrus) of Exelis to be present at, and participate in (but not control), all meetings with such Taxing Authority or any representative thereof pertaining to such Proceeding, provided, that any costs
relating to Exelis’s representation at such meetings shall be borne by Exelis. 
 (d) Time and Manner of Payment. Unless
otherwise agreed in writing, Exelis or Vectrus, as the case may be, shall pay to the other Party the amount with respect to an Indemnified Liability determined pursuant to a Final Determination (less any amount paid directly by the indemnifying
Party to the Taxing Authority) at least two Business Days prior to the date payment of the Indemnified Liability is required to be made to the Taxing Authority. Such payment shall be paid by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account
designated by the indemnified Party by written notice to the indemnifying Party prior to the due date of such payment. 
 (e) Refund of
Amounts. Should a Party or any of its Affiliates receive a refund in respect of an Indemnified Liability or other Taxes for which the other Party was responsible under this Article 4, or should any such amounts that would otherwise be refundable
to such Party or any of its Affiliates be applied or credited by the Taxing Authority to obligations of such Party or any of its Affiliates unrelated to an Indemnified Liability, then such Party shall, promptly following receipt (or notification of
credit), 

  
 12 








 
remit such refund or an amount equal to such credit (including any statutory interest that is included in such refund or credited amount) to the other Party. 

(h) Cooperation. Subject to the provisions of Section 3.6, Exelis and Vectrus shall (and shall cause their respective Subsidiaries
to) reasonably cooperate with one another in a timely manner in any Proceeding involving any matter that may result in an Indemnified Liability. Exelis and Vectrus agree that such cooperation shall include, without limitation, making available to
the other Party, during normal business hours, all books, records and information, officers and employees (without substantial interruption of employment) necessary or useful in connection with any such judicial or administrative Proceeding. The
Party requesting or otherwise entitled to any books, records, information, officers or employees pursuant to this Section 4.4(h) shall bear all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (except reimbursement of salaries, employee benefits and
general overhead) incurred in connection with providing such books, records, information, officers or employees. 
 SECTION 4.5.
Protective Section 336(e) Elections. 
 (a) For Vectrus. Exelis and Vectrus shall make a protective election under
Section 336(e) of the Code (and any similar election under state or local law) with respect to the External Distribution in accordance with Treas. Reg. Section 1.336-2(h) and (j) (and any applicable provisions under state and local
law) and shall cooperate in the timely completion and/or filings of such elections and any related filings or procedures (including filing or amending any Tax Returns to implement an election that becomes effective). This Section 4.5(a) is
intended to constitute a binding, written agreement to make an election under Section 336(e) of the Code with respect to the External Distribution. 

(b) For Systems. In connection with the elections set forth in Section 4.5(a), Vectrus and Systems shall make a protective
election under Section 336(e) of the Code (and any similar election under state or local law) with respect to Systems in accordance with Treas. Reg. Section 1.336-2(h) and (j) (and any applicable provisions under state and local law),
and Exelis, Vectrus and Systems shall cooperate in the timely completion and/or filings of such elections and any related filings or procedures (including filing or amending any Tax Returns to implement an election that becomes effective). This
Section 4.5(b) is intended to constitute a binding, written agreement to make an election under Section 336(e) of the Code with respect to Systems. 

(c) For Holdings. Systems and Holdings shall make a protective election under Section 336(e) of the Code (and any similar election
under state or local law) with respect to Holdings in accordance with Treas. Reg. Section 1.336-2(h) and (j) (and any applicable provisions under state and local law), and Exelis, Systems and Holdings shall cooperate in the timely
completion and/or filings of such elections and any related filings or procedures (including filing or amending any Tax Returns to implement an election that becomes effective). This Section 4.5(c) is intended to constitute a binding, written
agreement to make an election under Section 336(e) of the Code with respect to Holdings. If an election under Section 336(e) of the Code is unavailable to Systems and Holdings in connection with the Internal Distribution, Exelis and
Vectrus shall (and shall cause their Affiliates to) cooperate in making an effective election under Section 338(h)(10) of the Code (and any similar election under state or local law) with respect to the Internal Distribution and cooperate with
respect to any related filings or procedures (including having Exelis and Systems file an election under Section 338(h)(10) of the Code under the relief provisions of Treas. Reg. Sections 301.9100-1, et. seq. and filing or amending any
Tax Returns to implement an election that becomes effective).

under this Agreement shall be made and delivered in conformity with Section 11.6 of the Distribution Agreement. 
 SECTION 5.2.
Amendment and Waiver. This Agreement may be terminated, modified or amended at any time prior to the Effective Time by and in the sole discretion of Exelis without the approval of Vectrus or the shareholders of Exelis. In the event of such
termination, no Party shall have any liability of any kind to the other Party or any other Person. After the Effective Time, this Agreement may not be terminated, modified or amended except by an agreement in writing signed by Exelis, Vectrus and
Systems. No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of any Party, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver hereof or thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power
or privilege hereunder or thereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. 

SECTION 5.3. Entire Agreement. This Agreement shall constitute the entire agreement between the Parties (which, for purposes of this
Article V, shall include Systems and Holdings) with respect to the subject matter hereof and shall supersede all previous negotiations, commitments, course of dealings and writings with respect to such subject matter. 

SECTION 5.4. Assignment; Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall not be assignable, in whole or in part, directly or indirectly,
by any Party hereto without the prior written consent of the other Party (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), and any attempt to assign any rights or obligations arising under this Agreement without such consent shall be void.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement shall be assignable in whole in connection with a merger or consolidation or the sale of all or substantially all the assets of a Party hereto so long as the resulting, surviving or transferee entity
assumes all the obligations of the relevant Party hereto by operation of law or pursuant to an agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the other parties to this Agreement. No assignment permitted by this Section 5.4 shall
release the assigning Party from liability for the full performance of its obligations under this Agreement. The provisions of this Agreement and the obligations and rights hereunder shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable
by (and against) the Parties and their respective successors and permitted transferees and assigns 
 SECTION 5.5. Severability. In
the event any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein shall not in any way be
affected or impaired thereby. The Parties shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions, the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid,
illegal or unenforceable provisions. 
 SECTION 5.6. Tax Sharing Agreements. Any benefit or liability resulting from any Tax sharing,
indemnification or similar agreements, written or unwritten, including but not limited to the ITT Tax Matters Agreement, as between any of the Parties or their respective Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and any other Party or its respective
Subsidiaries, on the other hand (other than this Agreement or in any other Ancillary Agreement) (“Tax Sharing Agreements”), shall remain the benefit or liability of such Party or its respective Subsidiary; provided, however, that
the Party responsible under this Agreement for any Taxes shall be responsible for any related liability in respect of such Taxes under any Tax Sharing Agreement, and be entitled to any related benefit in respect of such Taxes under any Tax Sharing
Agreement. No Party shall be entitled to indemnification under this Agreement in respect of Taxes to the extent such Party or one of its Subsidiaries is indemnified under any Tax Sharing Agreement, and the Parties shall (and shall cause their
Subsidiaries to) use commercially reasonable efforts to pursue any 

  
 14 








 
indemnification rights under any Tax Sharing Agreement if such indemnification would reduce the other Party’s responsibility for such Taxes under this Agreement. 

SECTION 5.7. Governing Law; Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the Laws, but not the
Laws governing conflicts of Laws (other than Sections 5-1401 and 5-1402 of the New York General Obligations Law), of the State of New York; provided that the Indiana Business Corporation Law, including the provisions thereof governing the
fiduciary duties of directors of a Indiana corporation, shall govern, as applicable, the internal affairs of Exelis and Vectrus, as the case may be. Subject to the provisions of Article IX of the Distribution Agreement, each of the Parties
irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of (a) the Fairfax County Circuit Court and any appeals courts thereof or (b) the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia and any appeals courts thereof (the

or document by U.S. registered mail to such Party’s respective address set forth in Section 11.6 of the Distribution Agreement shall be effective service of process for any action, suit or proceeding in the Virginia Courts with respect to
any matters to which it has submitted to jurisdiction in this Section 5.7. Each of the Parties irrevocably and unconditionally waives any objection to the laying of venue of any action, suit or proceeding arising out of this Agreement or the
transactions contemplated hereby in the Virginia Courts, and hereby further irrevocably and unconditionally waives and agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that any such action, suit or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought
in an inconvenient forum. 
 SECTION 5.8. Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH OF THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY
APPLICABLE LAW ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT. EACH OF THE PARTIES HEREBY
(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
IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT, AS APPLICABLE, BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 5.8.

same agreement, and shall become effective when one or more such counterparts have been signed by each of the Parties and delivered to each of the Parties. 

SECTION 5.10. Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is solely for the benefit of the Parties and should not be deemed to confer
upon third parties any remedy, claim, liability, reimbursement, claim of action or other right in excess of those existing without reference to this Agreement. 

SECTION 5.11. Force Majeure. No Party (or any Person acting on its behalf) shall have any liability or responsibility for failure to
fulfill any obligation (other than a payment obligation) under this Agreement, so long as and to the extent to which the fulfillment of such obligation is prevented, 

  
 15 








 
frustrated, hindered or delayed as a consequence of circumstances of Force Majeure. A Party claiming the benefit of this provision shall, as soon as reasonably practicable after the occurrence of
any such event: (a) notify the other applicable Parties of the nature and extent of any such Force Majeure condition and (b) use due diligence to remove any such causes and resume performance under this Agreement as soon as feasible. 

SECTION 5.12. Double Recovery. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to confer to or impose upon any Party a duplicative right,
entitlement, obligation or recovery with respect to any matter arising out of the same facts and circumstances.
