Parent the Altisource Business (as defined in the Separation Agreement) and (ii) distribute (the

          (a) Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined have the meanings given to such
terms in the Separation Agreement.




          (b) For the purposes of this Agreement, the following terms shall have the following meanings:

cause the direction of the management or policies of such entity, whether through ownership of
voting securities or other interests, by contract or otherwise. Furthermore, with respect to any
Person that is partially owned by such Principal and does not otherwise constitute an Affiliate (a
“Partially-Owned Person”), such Partially-Owned Person shall be considered an Affiliate of such



1









 






Principal for purposes of this Agreement if such Principal can, after making a good faith
effort to do so, legally bind such Partially-Owned Person to this Agreement.




          “Agreement” means this Transition Services Agreement, including the Schedules hereto
and any SOWs entered into pursuant to Section 2(b).

of the Providing Party’s provision of such Service, including a share of direct charges of the
function providing such Service, and including allocable amounts to reflect compensation and
benefits, technology expenses, occupancy and equipment expense, and third-party payments incurred
in connection with the provision of such Service, but shall not include any Taxes payable as a
result of performance of such Service.




          “OCWEN-Provided Services” means the services set forth on Schedule I and the
SOWs related thereto.




          “ALTISOURCE-Provided Services” means the services set forth on Schedule II and
the SOWs related thereto.




          “Providing Party” means a party in its capacity of providing a Service hereunder.




          “Receiving Party” means a party in its capacity of receiving a Service hereunder.




          “Services” means, as the context requires, the OCWEN-Provided Services and the
ALTISOURCE-Provided Services, collectively or either of the OCWEN-Provided Services or the
ALTISOURCE-Provided Services.




          “SOW” means a statement of work entered into between the parties on an as-needed basis
to describe a particular service that is not covered specifically in a schedule hereto, but has
been agreed to be provided pursuant to the terms of this Agreement except as otherwise set forth in
such SOW.




          2. Provision of Services.




          (a) Generally. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, (i) OCWEN shall
provide, or cause to be provided, to ALTISOURCE and the ALTISOURCE Group, solely for the benefit of
the Altisource Business in the ordinary course of business, the OCWEN-Provided Services, and (ii)
ALTISOURCE shall provide, or cause to be provided, to OCWEN and the OCWEN Group, solely for the
benefit of the OCWEN Business in the ordinary course of business, the ALTISOURCE-Provided Services,
in each case for periods commencing on the Distribution Date through the respective period
specified in Schedule I or Schedule II (the “Service Period”),
unless such period is earlier terminated in accordance with Section 5.




          (b) Statements of Work. In addition to the services provided as set forth on Schedule
I and Schedule II, from time to time during the term of this Agreement the parties
shall have the right to enter into SOWs to set forth the terms of any related or additional
transition services to be performed hereunder. Any SOW shall be agreed to by each party, shall be
in writing and (I) shall contain: (i) the identity of each of the Providing Party and the Receiving



2









 






Party; (ii) a description of the Services to be performed thereunder; (iii) the applicable
performance standard for the provision of such Service, if different from the Performance Standard;
(iv) the amount, schedule and method of compensation for provision of such Service, which shall
reflect the Fully Allocated Cost of such Service; and (II) may contain (i) the Receiving Party’s
standard operating procedures for receipt of services similar to such Service, including
operations, compliance requirements and related training schedules; (ii) information technology
support requirements of the Receiving Party with respect to such Service; and (iii) training and
support commitments with respect to such Service. For the avoidance of doubt, the terms and
conditions of this Agreement shall apply to any SOW.




          (c) The Services shall be performed on Business Days during hours that constitute regular
business hours for each of OCWEN and ALTISOURCE, unless otherwise agreed. No Receiving Party, nor
any member of its respective Group, shall resell, subcontract, license, sublicense or otherwise
transfer any of the Services to any Person whatsoever or permit use of any of the Services by any
Person other than by the Receiving Party and its Affiliates directly in connection with the conduct
of the Receiving Party’s respective business in the ordinary course of business.




          (d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2 (but subject to the
second succeeding sentence), the Providing Party shall have the exclusive right to select, employ,
pay, supervise, administer, direct and discharge any of its employees who will perform Services.
The Providing Party shall be responsible for paying such employees’ compensation and providing to
such employees any benefits. With respect to each Service, the Providing Party shall use
commercially reasonable efforts to have qualified individuals participate in the provision of such
Service; provided, however, that (i) the Providing Party shall not be obligated to have
any individual participate in the provision of any Service if the Providing Party determines that
such participation would adversely affect the Providing Party or its Affiliates; and (ii) none of
the Providing Party or its Affiliates shall be required to continue to employ any particular
individual during the applicable Service Period.




          (e) Each of OCWEN and ALTISOURCE acknowledges that the purpose of this Agreement is to enable
it to receive the applicable Services on an interim basis. Accordingly, at all times from and
after the Distribution Date, each of OCWEN and the OCWEN Group, on the one hand, and ALTISOURCE and
the ALTISOURCE Group, on the other hand, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to make or
obtain, or cause to be made or obtained, any filings, registrations, approvals, permits or
licenses; implement, or cause to be implemented, any systems; purchase, or cause to be purchased,
any equipment; and take, or cause to be taken, any and all other actions, in each case necessary or
advisable to enable it to provide for the Services for itself as soon as reasonably practical, and
in any event prior to the expiration of the relevant Service Periods. For the avoidance of doubt,
no Providing Party shall be required to provide any Service for a period longer than the applicable
Service Period.




          3. Standard of Performance.




          (a) The Providing Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide, or cause to be
provided, to the Receiving Party and the Receiving Party’s Group, each Service in a manner
generally consistent with the manner and level of care with which such Service was



3









 






provided to the Altisource Business or the OCWEN Business, as applicable, immediately prior to
the Distribution Date (or, with respect to any Service not provided prior to the Distribution Date,
generally consistent with the manner and level of care with which such Service is performed by the
Providing Party for its own behalf) (the “Performance Standard”), unless otherwise
specified in this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Providing Party shall have any
obligation hereunder to provide to any Receiving Party (i) any improvements, upgrades, updates,
substitutions, modifications or enhancements to any of the Services unless otherwise specified in
Schedule I or Schedule II, as applicable, or (ii) any Service to the extent that
the need for such Service arises, directly or indirectly, from the acquisition by the Receiving
Party or any member of its Group, outside the ordinary course of business, of any assets of, or any
equity interest in, any Person. The Receiving Party acknowledges and agrees that the Providing
Party may be providing services similar to the Services provided hereunder and/or services that
involve the same resources as those used to provide the Services to its and its Affiliates’
business units and other third parties, and, accordingly, the Providing Party reserves the right to
modify any of the Services or the manner in which any of the Services are provided in the ordinary
course of business; provided, however, that no such modification shall materially
diminish the Services or have a materially adverse effect on the business of the Receiving Party.




          (b) The Providing Party will use commercially reasonable efforts not to establish priorities,
as between the Providing Party and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Receiving Party and its
Affiliates, on the other hand, as to the provision of any Service, and will use commercially
reasonable efforts to provide the Services within a time frame so as not to materially disrupt the
business of the Receiving Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Receiving Party acknowledges
and agrees that, due to the transitional nature of the Services, the Providing Party shall have the
right to establish reasonable priorities as between the Providing Party and its Affiliates, on the
one hand, and the Receiving Party and its Affiliates, on the other hand, as to the provision of any
Service if the Providing Party determines that such priorities are necessary to avoid any adverse
effect to the Providing Party and its Affiliates. If any such priorities are established, the
Providing Party shall advise the Receiving Party as soon as possible of any Services that will be
delayed as a result of such prioritization, and will use commercially reasonable efforts to
minimize the duration and impact of such delays.




          4. Fees for Services.




          (a) As compensation for a particular Service, the Receiving Party agrees to pay to the
Providing Party the Fully Allocated Cost of providing the Services in accordance with this
Agreement or, with respect to any SOW, the amount set forth therein.




          (b) The Providing Party shall submit statements of account to the Receiving Party on a monthly
basis with respect to all amounts payable by the Receiving Party to the Providing Party hereunder
(the “Invoiced Amount”), setting out the Services provided, and the amount billed to the
Receiving Party as a result of providing such Services (together with, in arrears, any Commingled
Invoice Statement (as defined below) and any other invoices for Services provided by third parties,
in each case setting out the Services provided by the applicable third parties). The Receiving
Party shall pay the Invoiced Amount to the Providing Party by wire transfer of immediately
available funds to an account or accounts specified by the Providing Party, or in such other manner
as specified by the Providing Party in writing, or



4









 






otherwise reasonably agreed to by the Parties, within 30 days of the date of delivery to the
Receiving Party of the applicable statement of account; provided, that, in the event of any
dispute as to an Invoiced Amount, the Receiving Party shall pay the undisputed portion, if any, of
such Invoiced Amount in accordance with the foregoing, and shall pay the remaining amount, if any,
promptly upon resolution of such dispute.




          (c) The Providing Party may engage third-party contractors, at a reasonable cost, to perform
any of the Services, to provide professional services related to any of the Services, or to provide
any secretarial, administrative, telephone, e-mail or other services necessary or ancillary to the
Services (collectively, the “Ancillary Services”) (all of which may be contracted for
separately by the Providing Party on behalf of the Receiving Party) after giving notice to the
Receiving Party, reasonably in advance of the commencement of such Services and Ancillary Services
to be so provided by such contractors, of the identity of such contractors, each Service and
Ancillary Service to be provided by such contractors and a good faith estimate of the cost (or
formula for determining the cost) of the Services and Ancillary Services to be so provided by such
contractors. The Receiving Party may, in its sole discretion, decline to accept any such Services
or Ancillary Services to be provided by any such contractors by giving prompt written notice to the
Providing Party, provided that, if the Receiving Party so declines any Service or Ancillary
Service from any such contractors, then thereafter, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to
the contrary, the Providing Party shall be excused from any obligation to provide such Service or
Ancillary Service.




          (d) The Providing Party may cause any third party to which amounts are payable by or for the
account of the Receiving Party in connection with Services or Ancillary Services to issue a
separate invoice to the Receiving Party for such amounts. The Receiving Party shall pay or cause
to be paid any such separate third party invoice in accordance with the payment terms thereof. Any
third party invoices that aggregate Services or Ancillary Services for the benefit of the Receiving
Party and its Group, on the one hand, with services not for the benefit of Receiving Party and its
Group, on the other hand (each, a “Commingled Invoice”), shall be separated by the
Providing Party. The Providing Party shall prepare a statement indicating that portion of the
invoiced amount of such Commingled Invoice that is attributable to Services or the Ancillary
Services rendered for the benefit of Receiving Party and its Group (the “Commingled Invoice
Statement”). The Providing Party shall deliver such Commingled Invoice Statement and a copy of
the Commingled Invoice to Receiving Party. The Receiving Party shall, within 30 days after the
date of delivery to the Receiving Party of such Commingled Invoice Statement, pay or cause to be
paid the amount set forth on such Commingled Invoice Statement to the third party, and shall
deliver evidence of such payment to the Providing Party. The Providing Party shall not be required
to use its own funds for payments to any third party providing any of the Services or Ancillary
Services or to satisfy any payment obligation of the Receiving Party or any of its Affiliates to
any third party provider; provided, however, that in the event the Providing Party does
use its own funds for any such payments to any third party, the Receiving Party shall reimburse the
Providing Party for such payments as invoiced by the Providing Party within 30 days following the
date of delivery of such invoice from the Providing Party.




          (e) The Providing Party may, in its discretion and without any liability, suspend any
performance under this Agreement upon failure of the Receiving Party to make



5









 






timely any payments required under this Agreement beyond the applicable cure date specified in
Section 5(b)(8) of this Agreement.




          (f) In the event that the Receiving Party does not make any payment required under the
provisions of this Agreement to the Providing Party when due in accordance with the terms hereof,
the Providing Party may, at its option, charge the Receiving Party interest on the unpaid amount at
the rate of 2% per annum above the prime rate charged by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (or its
successor). In addition, the Receiving Party shall reimburse the Providing Party for all costs of
collection of overdue amounts, including any reimbursement required under Section 4(d) and
any reasonable attorneys’ fees.




          (g) The Receiving Party acknowledges and agrees that it shall be responsible for any interest
or other amounts in respect of any portion of any Commingled Invoice that the Receiving Party is
required to pay pursuant to any Commingled Invoice Statement.




          5. Term; Termination.




          (a) Term. The term of this Agreement shall commence on the Distribution Date and shall

such failure to the Providing Party;
	 
	 	(4)	 	by a Receiving Party, if the Providing Party or any
member of its Group providing Services hereunder is cited by a Governmental

Service, which violation cannot be or has not been cured by the

such citation to the Providing Party;




6









 












	 	(5)	 	by a Receiving Party, if the Providing Party fails to

which failure cannot be or has not been cured by the 30th day

Providing Party;
	 
	 	(8)	 	by a Providing Party, if the Receiving Party fails to

written notice of such failure to the Receiving Party; and
	 
	 	(9)	 	by a Receiving Party, upon 60 days prior notice to the

respective Service or SOW on its own behalf.





          (c) Upon the early termination of any Service pursuant to Section 5(b)(9) or upon the
expiration of the applicable Service Period, following the effective time of the termination, the
Providing Party shall no longer be obligated to provide such Service; provided that the
Receiving Party shall be obligated to reimburse the Providing Party for any reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses or costs attributable to such termination.




          (d) No termination, cancellation or expiration of this Agreement shall prejudice the right of
either party hereto to recover any payment due at the time of termination, cancellation or
expiration (or any payment accruing as a result thereof), nor shall it prejudice any cause of
action or claim of either party hereto accrued or to accrue by reason of any breach or default by
the other party hereto.

Agreement, the Receiving Party grants to the Providing Party and its Affiliates a limited,
non-exclusive, fully paid-up, nontransferable, revocable license, without the right to sublicense,
for the term of this Agreement to use all intellectual property owned by or, to the extent
permitted by the applicable license, licensed to the Receiving Party solely to the extent necessary
for the Providing Party to perform its obligations hereunder.




          8. Cooperation; Access.




          (a) The Receiving Party shall, and shall cause its Group to, permit the Providing Party and
its employees and representatives access, on Business Days during hours that constitute regular
business hours for the Receiving Party and upon reasonable prior request, to the premises of the
Receiving Party and its Group and such data, books, records and personnel designated by the
Receiving Party and its Group as involved in receiving or overseeing the Services as the Providing
Party may reasonably request for the purposes of providing the Services. The Providing Party shall
provide the Receiving Party, upon reasonable prior written notice, such documentation relating to
the provision of the Services as the Receiving Party may reasonably request for the purposes of
confirming any Invoiced Amount or other amount payable pursuant to any Commingled Invoice Statement
or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement. Any documentation so provided to the Providing Party
pursuant to this Section will be subject to the confidentiality obligations set forth in

conclusively settled in accordance with the provisions of Article VII of the Separation
Agreement, which shall apply mutatis mutandis to this Agreement.




          11. Warranties; Limitation of Liability; Indemnity.




          (a) The Receiving Party acknowledges that the Providing Party is not engaged in the business
of providing services of the type being provided hereunder and that the Services



8









 






and Ancillary Services to be provided by the Providing Party to the Receiving Party and the
Receiving Party’s Group are being provided as an accommodation to the Receiving Party and the
Receiving Party’s Group in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Separation
Agreement. All Services and Ancillary Services are provided “as is”.




          (b) Other than the statements expressly made by the Providing Party in this Agreement, the
Providing Party makes no representation or warranty, express or implied, with respect to the
Services and Ancillary Services and, except as provided in Subsection (c) of this
Section 11, the Receiving Party hereby waives, releases and renounces all other
representations, warranties, obligations and liabilities of the Providing Party, and any other

of the Services or Ancillary Services, including (i) any implied warranty of merchantability or
fitness for a particular purpose, (ii) any implied warranty of non-infringement or arising from

right, claim or remedy in tort, whether or not arising from the negligence of the Providing Party.




          (c) None of the Providing Party or any of its Affiliates or any of its or their respective
officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact, contractors or other representatives
shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Providing Party or such person
under or in connection with this Agreement, except that the Providing Party shall be liable for
direct damages or losses incurred by the Receiving Party or the Receiving Party’s Group arising out
of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Providing Party or any of its Affiliates or
any of its or their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact,
contractors or other representatives in the performance or nonperformance of the Services or
Ancillary Services.




          (d) In no event shall the aggregate amount of all such damages or losses for which the
Providing Party may be liable under this Agreement exceed the aggregate total sum received by the
Providing Party for the Services; provided, that, no such cap shall apply to liability for
damages or losses arising from or relating to breaches of Section 9 (relating to
confidentiality), infringement of Intellectual Property or fraud or criminal acts. Except as
provided in Subsection (c) of this Section 11, none of the Providing Party or any
of its Affiliates or any of its or their respective officers, directors, employees, agents,
attorneys-in-fact, contractors or other representatives shall be liable for any action taken or
omitted to be taken by, or the negligence, gross negligence or willful misconduct of, any third

9









 








          (f) No party hereto or any of its Affiliates or any of its or their respective officers,
directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact, contractors or other representatives shall in any
event have any obligation or liability to the other party hereto or any such other person whether
arising in contract (including warranty), tort (including active, passive or imputed negligence) or
otherwise for consequential, incidental, indirect, special or punitive damages, whether foreseeable
or not, arising out of the performance of the Services or Ancillary Services or this Agreement,
including any loss of revenue or profits, even if a party hereto has been notified about the
possibility of such damages; provided, however , that the provisions of this
Subsection (f) shall not limit the indemnification obligations hereunder of either party
hereto with respect to any liability that the other party hereto may have to any third party not
affiliated with any member of the Providing Party’s Group or the Receiving Party’s Group for any
incidental, consequential, indirect, special or punitive damages.




          (g) The Receiving Party shall indemnify and hold the Providing Party and its Affiliates and
any of its or their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact,
contractors or other representatives harmless from and against any and all damages, claims or
losses that the Providing Party or any such other person may at any time suffer or incur, or become
subject to, as a result of or in connection with this Agreement or the Services or Ancillary
Services provided hereunder, except those damages, claims or losses incurred by the Providing Party
or such other person arising out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct by the Providing
Party or such other person.




          (h) Neither party hereto may bring an action against the other under this Agreement (whether
for breach of contract, negligence or otherwise) more than six months after that party becomes
aware of the cause of action, claim or event giving rise to the cause of action or claim or one
year after the termination of this Agreement, whichever is shorter.




          12. Taxes. Each party hereto shall be responsible for the cost of any sales, use,
privilege and other transfer or similar taxes imposed upon that party as a result of the
transactions contemplated hereby. Any amounts payable under this Agreement are exclusive of any
goods and services taxes, value added taxes, sales taxes or similar taxes (“Sales Taxes”)
now or hereinafter imposed on the performance or delivery of Services, and an amount equal to such
taxes so chargeable shall, subject to receipt of a valid receipt or invoice as required below in
this Section 12, be paid by the Receiving Party to the Providing Party in addition to the
amounts otherwise payable under this Agreement. In each case where an amount in respect of Sales
Tax is payable by the Receiving Party in respect of a Service provided by the Providing Party, the
Providing Party shall furnish in a timely manner a valid Sales Tax receipt or invoice to the
Receiving Party in the form and manner required by applicable law to allow the Receiving Party to
recover such tax to the extent allowable under such law. Additionally, if the Providing Party is
required to pay ‘gross-up’ on withholding taxes with respect to provision of the Services, such
taxes shall be billed separately as provided above and shall be owing and payable by the Receiving
Party. Any applicable property taxes resulting from provision of the Services shall be payable by
the party owing or leasing the asset subject to such tax.




          13. Public Announcements. No party to this Agreement shall make, or cause to be made,
any press release or public announcement or otherwise communicate with any news media in respect of
this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement without



10









 






the prior written consent of the other party hereto unless otherwise required by law, in which
case the party making the press release, public announcement or communication shall give the other
party reasonable opportunity to review and comment on such and the parties shall cooperate as to
the timing and contents of any such press release, public announcement or communication.




          14. Assignment. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the
parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. No party hereto may assign
either this Agreement or any of its rights, interests or obligations hereunder without the prior
written approval of the other party hereto; provided, however, that either party may
assign this Agreement without the consent of the other party to any third party that acquires, by
any means, including by merger or consolidation, all or substantially all the consolidated assets
of such party. Any purported assignment in violation of this Section 14 shall be void and
shall constitute a material breach of this Agreement.

parties hereto shall have the right to bind the others to any agreement with a third party or to
represent itself as a partner or joint venturer of the other by reason of this Agreement.




          16. Force Majeure. Neither party hereto shall be in default of this Agreement by
reason of its delay in the performance of, or failure to perform, any of its obligations hereunder
if such delay or failure is caused by strikes, acts of God, acts of the public enemy, acts of
terrorism, riots or other events that arise from circumstances beyond the reasonable control of
that party. During the pendency of such intervening event, each of the parties hereto shall take
all reasonable steps to fulfill its obligations hereunder by other means and, in any event, shall
upon termination of such intervening event, promptly resume its obligations under this Agreement.




          17. Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVES
(TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW) ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY DISPUTE
ARISING UNDER OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT AND AGREES THAT ANY SUCH DISPUTE SHALL BE TRIED BEFORE
A JUDGE SITTING WITHOUT A JURY.
