and division, as a dividend to the holders of Ceridian Common Stock all of the
outstanding shares of common stock, $.01 par value, of New Ceridian (the "New
Ceridian Common Shares"); and

WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of Ceridian has determined it appropriate and
desirable to change the name of Ceridian to Arbitron Inc. and to cause the name
of New Ceridian to be changed to Ceridian Corporation; and

WHEREAS, each of Ceridian and New Ceridian has determined that it is necessary
and desirable to set forth the principal corporate transactions required to

              obligated for any New Ceridian Liabilities, in each case pursuant
              to this Section 2.1(a).

              (iv)   The Corporation shall cause CSW Research Limited, which is
              presently an indirect second-tier, wholly-owned Subsidiary of the
              Corporation, to become a direct wholly-owned Subsidiary of the
              Corporation.

       (b)    ISSUANCE OF NEW CERIDIAN COMMON SHARES.  In exchange for, and at
       the time of, the contribution of the New Ceridian Assets and the
       assumption of the New Ceridian Liabilities, New Ceridian shall issue that
       number of New Ceridian Common Shares equal to the number of shares of
       Ceridian Common Shares outstanding on the Distribution Record Date, less
       any shares of Ceridian Common Stock forfeited by employees of the
       Corporation in connection with the Distribution.

       (c)    CHARTERS; BY-LAWS.  On or prior to the Distribution Date, all
       necessary actions shall have been taken to provide for the adoption of
       the form of Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and Amended

       employee, officer, director, stockholder or agent of the Corporation or
       any such member, or otherwise, on behalf of a member of the New Ceridian
       Group shall be duly and validly transferred or caused to be transferred

       (f)    TRANSFER OF AGREEMENTS.  Without limiting the generality of the
       obligations set forth in Section 2.1(a), on or prior to the Distribution
       Date or as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter:

              (i)    the Corporation hereby agrees that, subject to the
              limitations set forth in this Section 2.1(f), it will, and it will
              cause each member of the Media Information Group to, assign,
              transfer and convey to the appropriate member of the New Ceridian
              Group all of the Corporation's or such member of the Media
              Information Group's respective right, title and interest in and to
              any and all New Ceridian Contracts;

              (ii)   subject to the provisions of this Section 2.1(f), any
              agreement to which any of the parties hereto or any of their
              Subsidiaries is a party that inures to the benefit of both the
              Media Information Business and the New Ceridian Business shall be
              assigned in part by the Corporation or New Ceridian, as
              appropriate, so that each party shall be entitled to the rights
              and benefits inuring to its business under such agreement; and

              (iii)  the assignee of any agreement assigned, in whole or in
              part, hereunder (an "Assignee") shall assume and agree to pay,
              perform, and fully discharge all obligations of the assignor under
              such agreement or, in the case of a partial assignment under
              paragraph (f) (ii), such Assignee's related portion of such
              obligations as determined in accordance with the terms of the
              relevant agreement, where determinable on the face thereof, and
              otherwise as determined in accordance with the practice of the
              parties prior to the Distribution.

       (g)    CONSENTS.  The parties hereto shall use their commercially
       reasonable efforts to obtain required consents to transfer and/or
       assignment of licenses, permits and authorizations of Governmental
       Authorities and of agreements hereunder.  Notwithstanding anything in
       this Agreement to the contrary, this Agreement shall not constitute an
       agreement to assign any agreement, in whole or in part, or any rights
       thereunder if the agreement to assign or attempt to assign, without the
       consent of a third party, would constitute a breach thereof or in any way
       adversely affect the rights of the assignor or Assignee thereof.  Until
       such consent is obtained, or if an attempted assignment thereof would be
       ineffective or would adversely affect the rights of any party hereto so
       that the intended Assignee would not, in fact, receive all such rights,
       the parties will cooperate with each other in any arrangement designed to
       provide for the intended Assignee the benefits of, and to permit the
       intended Assignee to assume liabilities under, any such agreement.

       (h)    DELIVERY OF SHARES TO AGENT.  The Corporation shall deliver to the
       Agent the share certificates representing the New Ceridian Common Shares
       issued to the Corporation by New Ceridian pursuant to Section 2.1(b),
       endorsed in blank, and shall instruct the Agent to distribute, on or as
       soon as practicable following the Distribution Date, to each holder of
       record of Ceridian Common Stock on the Distribution Record Date a
       certificate or certificates representing one share of New Ceridian Common
       Stock for each share of

                                          14
<PAGE>

       Ceridian Common Stock so held.  New Ceridian shall provide all share
       certificates that the Agent shall require in order to effect the
       Distribution.

       (i)    CERTAIN LIABILITIES.  For purposes of this Agreement, including
       Article III hereof, New Ceridian agrees with the Corporation that any and
       all Liabilities arising from or based upon "controlling person" liability
       relating to the Form 10 filed by New Ceridian shall be deemed to be New
       Ceridian Liabilities and not Media Information Liabilities; provided
       however, the foregoing provisions of this sentence shall not apply to any
       Liabilities arising from or based upon material misstatements or
       omissions relating to the Arbitron Business or the business of the
       members of the Media Information Group which Liabilities, if any, will
       remain Liabilities of the Corporation from and after the Effective Time.
       Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in the
       event there is a Liability arising at the Effective Time and directly
       and solely resulting from the Distribution or the transactions
       referred to in Sections 2.1(a)(i) or 2.1(a)(ii) that is not otherwise
       specifically allocated to the Corporation or New Ceridian pursuant to
       the terms of this Distribution Agreement or the terms of any Ancillary
       Agreement, such Liability shall be shared by the Corporation and New
       Ceridian on an equal (i.e., 50/50) basis.

       (j)    DEBT REALIGNMENT PLAN.  The Corporation and New Ceridian shall
       each use commercially reasonable efforts so that, immediately prior to
       the Distribution, the Debt Realignment Plan has been effected in
       accordance with such plan.

       (k)    OTHER TRANSACTIONS.  On or prior to the Distribution Date, each of
       the Corporation and New Ceridian shall consummate those other
       transactions in connection with the Distribution that are contemplated by
       the ruling request submissions by the Corporation to the Internal Revenue
       Service in respect of the ruling granted in November 2000, and not
       specifically referred to in subparagraphs (a)-(j) above. After the
       Distribution Date, each of the Corporation and New Ceridian will exercise
       good faith commercially reasonable efforts to consummate as promptly as
       practicable all other transactions which must be consummated in order
       fully to complete the Distribution and any of the transactions
       contemplated hereby or by any of the Ancillary Agreements.

2.2    CERIDIAN BOARD ACTION; CONDITIONS PRECEDENT TO THE DISTRIBUTION.
Ceridian's Board of Directors shall, in its sole discretion, establish the

       (c)    New Ceridian's Board of Directors, as named in the Form 10, shall
       have been elected by Ceridian, as sole stockholder of New Ceridian, and
       the New Ceridian Amended and Restated Certificate and the New Ceridian
       Amended and Restated Bylaws shall be in effect;

       (d)    the New Ceridian Common Stock shall have been approved for listing

       regulation or executive order promulgated or enacted by any Governmental
       Authority, shall be in effect preventing the payment of the Distribution;
       and

       (i)    the Board of Directors of Ceridian shall have received an opinion
       satisfactory to the Board of Directors of Ceridian relating to the
       solvency of each of New Ceridian and Ceridian and any other opinions
       referred to in the Information Statement;

PROVIDED that the satisfaction of such conditions shall not create any
obligation on the part of Ceridian to effect the Distribution or in any way
limit Ceridian's power of termination set forth in Section 8.11 or alter the
consequences of any such termination from those specified in such Section.

2.5    RESIGNATIONS.

       (a)    Subject to Section 2.5(b), the Corporation shall cause all their
       employees who will be in the Media Information Group to resign, effective
       as of the Distribution Date, from all positions as officers or directors
       of any member of the New Ceridian Group in which they serve, and New
       Ceridian shall cause all its employees to resign, effective as of the

       Corporation or any members of the Media Information Group in which they
       serve.

       (b)    No person shall be required by any party hereto to resign from any

                                          16
<PAGE>

2.6    FURTHER ASSURANCES.  In case at any time after the Effective Time any
further action is reasonably necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of
this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements, the proper officers of each party
to this Agreement shall take all such necessary reasonable action. Without
limiting the foregoing, the Corporation and New Ceridian shall use their
commercially reasonable efforts promptly to obtain all consents and approvals,
to enter into all amendatory agreements and to make all filings and applications
that may be required for the consummation of the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements, including, without limitation, all
applicable governmental and regulatory filings.  To the extent reasonably
requested to do so by another party hereto, each party hereto agrees to sign
such documents, in a form reasonably satisfactory to such party, as may be
reasonably necessary to evidence the assumption of any Liabilities hereunder.

2.7    LIMITED REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES.  Each of the parties hereto agrees
that no party hereto is, in this Agreement or in any other agreement or document
contemplated by this Agreement or otherwise, making any representation or
warranty whatsoever, as to title or value of Assets being transferred. It is
also agreed that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary otherwise expressly
provided in the relevant Conveyancing and Assumption Instrument, all Assets
either transferred to or retained by the parties, as the case may be, shall be
"as is, where is" and that (subject to Section 2.6) the party to which such
Assets are to be transferred hereunder shall bear the economic and legal risk
that such party's or any of the Subsidiaries' title to any such Assets shall be
other than good and marketable and free from encumbrances. Similarly, each party
hereto agrees that, except as otherwise expressly provided in the relevant
Conveyancing and Assumption Instrument, no party hereto is representing or
warranting in any way that the obtaining of any consents or approvals, the
execution and delivery of any amendatory agreements and the making of any
filings or applications contemplated by this Agreement will satisfy the
provisions of any or all applicable agreements or the requirements of any or all
applicable laws or judgments, it being agreed that the party to which any Assets
are transferred or are to be transferred shall bear the economic and legal risk
that any necessary consents or approvals are not obtained or that any
requirements of laws or judgments are not complied with.

2.8    GUARANTEES.

       (a)    Except as otherwise specified in any Ancillary Agreement, the
       Corporation and New Ceridian shall use their commercially reasonable
       efforts to have, on or prior to the Distribution Date, or as soon as
       practicable thereafter, the Corporation and any member of the Media
       Information Group removed as guarantor of or obligor for any New Ceridian
       Liability, including, without limitation, in respect of those guarantees
       set forth on Schedule 2.8(a) to the extent that they relate to New
       Ceridian Liabilities.

       (b)    Except as otherwise specified in any Ancillary Agreement, the
       Corporation and New Ceridian shall use their commercially reasonable
       efforts to have, on or prior to the Distribution Date, or as soon as
       practicable thereafter, any member of the New Ceridian Group removed as
       guarantor of or obligor for any Media Information Liability, including,
       without limitation, in respect of those guarantees set forth on Schedule
       2.8(b) to the extent that they relate to Media Information Liabilities.

                                         17

<PAGE>

       (c)    If the Corporation or New Ceridian is unable to obtain, or to
       cause to be obtained, any such required removal as set forth in clauses
       (a) or (b) of this Section 2.8, the applicable guarantor or obligor shall
       continue to be bound as such and, unless not permitted by law or the
       terms thereof, the relevant beneficiary shall or shall cause one of its
       Subsidiaries, as agent or subcontractor for such guarantor or obligor to
       pay, perform and discharge fully all the obligations or other liabilities
       of such guarantor or obligor thereunder from and after the date hereof.

2.9    LITIGATION SERVICES.  At all times from and after the Distribution Date,
each of the Corporation and New Ceridian shall use their commercially reasonable
efforts to make available to the other, upon reasonable written request, its and
its Subsidiaries' officers, directors, employees and agents as witnesses or for
providing litigation assistance (such as cooperating in a factual background
investigation) to the extent that (i) such persons may reasonably be required in
connection with the prosecution or defense of any Action in which the requesting
party may from time to time be involved and (ii) there is no conflict in the
Action between the requesting party and the Corporation or New Ceridian as
applicable.  A party providing witness or litigation services to the other party
under this Section shall be entitled to receive from the recipient of such
services, upon the presentation of invoices therefor, payments for such amounts,
relating to disbursements and other out-of-pocket expenses (which shall be
deemed to exclude the costs of salaries and benefits of employees who are
witnesses), as may be reasonably incurred in providing such witness services.

2.10   [INTENTIONALLY OMITTED]

2.11   TRANSFERS NOT EFFECTED PRIOR TO THE DISTRIBUTION; TRANSFERS DEEMED
EFFECTIVE AS OF THE DISTRIBUTION DATE.  To the extent that any transfers
contemplated by this Article II shall not have been consummated on or prior to
the Distribution Date, the parties shall cooperate to effect such transfers as
promptly following the Distribution Date as shall be practicable.  Nothing
herein shall be deemed to require the transfer of any Assets or the assumption
of any Liabilities which by their terms or operation of law cannot be
transferred; provided, however, that the parties hereto and their respective
Subsidiaries shall cooperate to seek to obtain any necessary consents or
approvals for the transfer of all Assets and Liabilities contemplated to be
transferred pursuant to this Article II. In the event that any such transfer of
Assets or Liabilities has not been consummated, from and after the Distribution
Date the party retaining such Asset or Liability shall hold such Asset in trust
for the use and benefit of the party entitled thereto (at the expense of the
party entitled thereto) or retain such Liability for the account of the party by
whom such Liability is to be assumed pursuant hereto, as the case may be, and
take such other action as may be reasonably requested by the party to whom such
Asset is to be transferred, or by whom such Liability is to be assumed, as the
case may be, in order to place such party, insofar as is reasonably possible, in
the same position as would have existed had such Asset or Liability been
transferred as contemplated hereby. As and when any such Asset or Liability
becomes transferable, such transfer shall be effected forthwith. The parties
agree that, as of the Distribution Date, each party hereto shall be deemed to
have acquired complete and sole beneficial ownership over all of the Assets,
together with all rights, powers and privileges incident thereto, and shall be
deemed to have assumed in accordance with the terms of this Agreement all of the
Liabilities, and all duties, obligations and responsibilities incident thereto,

                                          18
<PAGE>

which such party is entitled to acquire or required to assume pursunt to the
terms of this Agreement.

2.12   CONVEYANCING AND ASSUMPTION INSTRUMENTS.  In connection with the
transfers of Assets and the assumptions of Liabilities contemplated by this
Agreement, the parties shall execute or cause to be executed by the appropriate
entities the Conveyancing and Assumption Instruments in substantially the form
contemplated hereby for transfers to be effected pursuant to Minnesota law or
the laws of one of the other states of the United States or, if not appropriate
for a given transfer, and for transfers to be effected pursuant to non-U.S.
laws, in such other form as the parties shall reasonably agree, including the
transfer of real property with deeds as may be appropriate. The transfer of
capital stock shall be effected by means of delivery of stock certificates and
executed stock powers and notation on the stock record books of the corporation
or other legal entities involved, or by such other means as may be required in
any non-U.S. jurisdiction to transfer title to stock and, to the extent required
by applicable law, by notation on public registries.

2.13   ANCILLARY AGREEMENTS.  Prior to the Distribution Date, each of the
Corporation and New Ceridian shall enter into, and/or (where applicable) shall
cause members of the Media Information Group or the New Ceridian Group, as
applicable, to enter into, the Ancillary Agreements and any other agreements in
respect of the Distribution reasonably necessary or appropriate in connection
with the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby.

2.14   CORPORATE NAMES.

              an interim basis, cover up) any and all exterior signs and other
              identifiers located on any of its property or premises or on the
              property or premises used by it or its Subsidiaries (except
              property or premises to be shared with New Ceridian or its
              Subsidiaries after the Distribution) which refer or pertain to New
              Ceridian or which include the "Ceridian" name, logo
              or other trademark or other intellectual property utilizing
              "Ceridian;"

              (iii)  as soon as reasonably practicable after the Distribution
              Date but in any event within six months thereafter, the
              Corporation will, and will cause its Subsidiaries to, remove from
              all letterhead, envelopes, invoices and other communications media
              of any kind, all references to "Ceridian," including the
              "Ceridian" name, logo and any other trademark or other
              intellectual property utilizing "Ceridian" (except that the
              Corporation shall not be required to take any such action with
              respect to materials in the possession of customers), and neither
              the Corporation nor its Subsidiaries shall use or display the
              "Ceridian" name, logo

                                          19
<PAGE>

              or other trademarks or intellectual property utilizing "Ceridian"
              without the prior written consent of New Ceridian;

              (iv)   as soon as reasonably practicable after the Distribution
              Date, but in any event within six months thereafter, the
              Corporation will cause its Subsidiaries to change their corporate
              names to the extent necessary to remove and eliminate any
              reference to "Ceridian," including the "Ceridian" name; provided,
              however, that notwithstanding the foregoing requirements of this
              Section 2.14(a), if the Corporation has exercised good faith
              efforts to comply with this clause (iv) but is unable, due to
              regulatory or other circumstance beyond its control, to effect a
              corporate name change in compliance with applicable law, then the
              Corporation or its Subsidiary will not be deemed to be in breach
              hereof if it continues to exercise good faith efforts to
              effectuate such name change and does effectuate such name change
              within nine months after the Distribution Date, and, in such
              circumstances, such party may continue to include in exterior
              signs and other identifiers and in letterhead, envelopes, invoices
              and other communications references to the name which includes
              references to "Ceridian," but only to the extent necessary to
              identify such party and only until such party's corporate name can
              be changed to remove and eliminate such references; and

              (v)    notwithstanding the foregoing clauses (i) through (iv),
              nothing herein or in any Ancillary Agreement shall require the
              Corporation to take any action to remove any reference to
              Ceridian, including the "Ceridian" name, from any stock
              certificate relating to shares of Ceridian Common Stock
              outstanding on or prior to the Effective Time; provided that from
              and after the Effective Time, any newly issued stock certificates
              representing Ceridian Common Stock (which at the Effective Time
              will become common stock of Arbitron Inc.) shall not have any
              reference to Ceridian, including the "Ceridian" name.

       (b)    Except as otherwise specifically provided in any Ancillary
       Agreement:

              (i)    as soon as reasonably practicable after the Distribution
              Date but in any event within six months thereafter, New Ceridian
              will, at its own expense, remove (or, if necessary, on an interim
              basis, cover up) any and all exterior signs and other identifiers
              located on any of their respective property or premises owned or
              used by them or their respective Subsidiaries (except property or
              premises to be shared with the Corporation or its Subsidiaries
              after the Distribution) which refer or pertain to the Media
              Information Business or "Arbitron" name logo or other trademark or
              other Media Information intellectual property;

              (ii)   as soon as reasonably practicable after the Distribution
              Date but in any event within six months thereafter, New Ceridian
              will, and will cause its respective Subsidiaries to, remove from
              all letterhead, envelopes, invoices and other communications media
              of any kind, all references to the "Arbitron" name, logo and any
              other trademark or other Media Information intellectual property
              (except that New Ceridian shall not be required to take any such
              action with

                                          20
<PAGE>

              respect to materials in the possession of customers), and neither
              New Ceridian nor any of its Subsidiaries shall use or display the
              "Arbitron" name, logo or other trademarks or Media Information
              intellectual property without the prior written consent of the
              Corporation; and

              (iii)  as soon as reasonably practicable after the Distribution
              Date but in any event within six months thereafter, New Ceridian
              will, and will cause its Subsidiaries to, change their corporate
              names to the extent necessary to remove and eliminate any
              reference to the "Arbitron" name; provided, however, that
              notwithstanding the foregoing requirements of this Section
              2.14(b), if New Ceridian has exercised good faith efforts to
              comply with this clause (iii) but is unable, due to regulatory or
              other circumstance beyond its control, to effect a corporate name
              change in compliance with applicable law, then New Ceridian or its
              Subsidiary will not be deemed to be in breach hereof if it
              continues to exercise good faith efforts to effectuate such name
              change and does effectuate such name change within nine months
              after the Distribution Date, and, in such circumstances, such
              party may continue to include in exterior signs and other
              identifiers and in letterhead, envelopes, invoices and other
              communications references to the name which includes references to
              Arbitron but only to the extent necessary to identify such party
              and only until such party's corporate name can be changed to
              remove and eliminate such references.

2.15   ORDINARY COURSE OF BUSINESS.  Except as otherwise provided in this
Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement during the period from the date of this
Agreement through the Distribution Date, each of the Corporation and New
Ceridian shall, and shall cause any entity that is a Subsidiary of such party at
any time during such period to, conduct its business in a manner substantially
consistent with the current and past operating practices and in the ordinary
course.

                                    ARTICLE III
                                  INDEMNIFICATION

3.1    INDEMNIFICATION BY THE CORPORATION.  Except as otherwise specifically set
forth in any provision of this Agreement or of any Ancillary Agreement, the
Corporation shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the New Ceridian
Indemnitees from and against any and all Indemnifiable Losses of the New
Ceridian Indemnitees arising out of, by reason of or otherwise in connection
with the Media Information Liabilities or alleged Media Information Liabilities,
including any breach by the Corporation of any provision of this Agreement or
any Ancillary Agreement.

3.2    INDEMNIFICATION BY NEW CERIDIAN.  Except as otherwise specifically set
forth in any provision of this Agreement or of any Ancillary Agreement, New
Ceridian shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Media Information
Indemnitees from and against any and all Indemnifiable Losses of the Media
Information Indemnitees arising out of, by reason of or otherwise in connection
with the New Ceridian Liabilities or alleged New Ceridian Liabilities, including
any breach by New Ceridian of any provision of this Agreement or any Ancillary
Agreement.

3.3    PROCEDURES FOR INDEMNIFICATION.

       (a)    THIRD PARTY CLAIMS.  If a claim or demand is made against a Media
       Information Indemnitee or a New Ceridian Indemnitee (each, an
       "Indemnitee") by any person who is not a party to this Agreement (a
       "Third Party Claim") as to which such Indemnitee is entitled to
       indemnification pursuant to this Agreement, such Indemnitee shall notify
       the party which is or may be required pursuant to Section 3.1 or Section
       3.2 hereof to make such indemnification (the "Indemnifying Party") in
       writing, and in reasonable detail, of the Third Party Claim promptly (and
       in any event within 15 business days) after receipt by such Indemnitee of
       written notice of the Third Party Claim; provided, however, that failure
       to give such notification shall not affect the indemnification provided
       hereunder except to the extent the Indemnifying Party shall have been
       actually prejudiced as a result of such failure (except that the
       Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any expenses incurred during
       the period in which the Indemnitee failed to give such notice).
       Thereafter, the Indemnitee shall deliver to the Indemnifying Party,
       promptly (and in any event within five business days) after the
       Indemnitee's receipt thereof, copies of all notices and documents
       (including court papers) received by the Indemnitee relating to the Third
       Party Claim.

       If a Third Party Claim is made against an Indemnitee, the Indemnifying
       Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense thereof and, if it
       so chooses and acknowledges in writing its obligation to indemnify the
       Indemnitee therefor, to assume the defense thereof with counsel selected
       by the Indemnifying Party; provided that such counsel is not reasonably
       objected to by the Indemnitee. Should the Indemnifying Party so elect to
       assume the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall,
       within 30 days (or sooner if the nature of the Third Party Claim so
       requires), notify the Indemnitee of its intent to do so, and the
       Indemnifying Party shall thereafter not be liable to the Indemnitee for
       legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the Indemnitee in
       connection with the defense thereof; provided, that such Indemnitee shall
       have the right to employ counsel to represent such Indemnitee if, in such
       Indemnitee's reasonable judgment, a conflict of interest between such
       Indemnitee and such Indemnifying Party exists in respect of such claim
       which would make representation of both such parties by one counsel
       inappropriate, and in such event the fees and expenses of such separate
       counsel shall be paid by such Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnifying
       Party assumes such defense, the Indemnitee shall have the right to
       participate in the defense thereof and to employ counsel, subject to the
       proviso of the preceding sentence, at its own expense, separate from the
       counsel employed by the Indemnifying Party, it being understood, subject
       to the proviso of the preceding sentence, that the Indemnifying Party
       shall control such defense. The Indemnifying Party shall be liable for
       the fees and expenses of counsel employed by the Indemnitee for any
       period during which the Indemnifying Party has failed to assume the
       defense thereof (other than during the period prior to the time the
       Indemnitee shall have given notice of the Third Party Claim as provided
       above). If the Indemnifying Party so elects to assume the defense of any
       Third Party Claim, all of the Indemnitees shall cooperate with the
       Indemnifying Party in the defense or prosecution thereof, including by
       providing or causing to be provided, Records and witnesses as soon as
       reasonably

                                          22
<PAGE>

       practicable after receiving any request therefor from or on behalf of the
       Indemnifying Party.

       If the Indemnifying Party acknowledges in writing responsibility for a
       Third Party Claim, then in no event will the Indemnitee admit any
       liability with respect to, or settle, compromise or discharge, any Third
       Party Claim without the Indemnifying Party's prior written consent;
       provided, however, that the Indemnitee shall have the right to settle,
       compromise or discharge such Third Party Claim without the consent of the
       Indemnifying Party if the Indemnitee releases the Indemnifying Party from
       its indemnification obligation hereunder with respect to such Third Party
       Claim and such settlement, compromise or discharge would not otherwise
       adversely affect the Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnifying Party
       acknowledges in writing liability for a Third Party Claim, the Indemnitee
       will agree to any settlement, compromise or discharge of a Third Party
       Claim that the Indemnifying Party may recommend and that by its terms
       obligates the Indemnifying Party to pay the full amount of the liability
       in connection with such Third Party Claim and releases the Indemnitee
       completely in connection with such Third Party Claim and that would not
       otherwise adversely affect the Indemnitee; provided, however, that the
       Indemnitee may refuse to agree to any such settlement, compromise or
       discharge if the Indemnitee agrees that the Indemnifying Party's
       indemnification obligation with respect to such Third Party Claim shall
       not exceed the amount that would be required to be paid by or on behalf
       of the Indemnifying Party in connection with such settlement, compromise
       or discharge. If an Indemnifying Party elects not to assume the defense
       of a Third Party Claim, or fails to notify an Indemnitee of its election
       to do so as provided herein, such Indemnitee may compromise, settle or
       defend such Third Party Claim.

       Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnifying Party shall not be
       entitled to assume the defense of any Third Party Claim (and shall be
       liable for the fees and expenses of counsel incurred by the Indemnitee in
       defending such Third Party Claim) if the Third Party Claim seeks an
       order, injunction or other equitable relief or relief for other than
       money damages against the Indemnitee which the Indemnitee reasonably
       determines, after conferring with its counsel, cannot be separated from
       any related claim for money damages. If such equitable relief or other
       relief portion of the Third Party Claim can be so separated from that for
       money damages, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to assume the
       defense of the portion relating to money damages.

       (b)    SUBROGATION.  In the event of payment by an Indemnifying Party to
       any Indemnitee in connection with any Third-Party Claim, such
       Indemnifying Party shall be subrogated to and shall stand in the place of
       such Indemnitee as to any events or circumstances in respect of which
       such Indemnitee may have any right or claim relating to such Third-Party
       Claim against any claimant or plaintiff asserting such Third-Party Claim
       or anyone else.  Such Indemnitee shall cooperate with such Indemnifying
       Party in a reasonable manner, and at the cost and expense of such
       Indemnifying Party, in prosecuting any subrogated right or claim.

                                          23
<PAGE>

       (c)    OTHER CLAIMS.  In the event that the Indemnitee asserts the
       existence of a claim giving rise to Indemnifiable Losses (but excluding
       claims resulting from the assertion of Liability by third parties), it
       shall give notice to the Indemnifying Party specifying the nature and
       amount of the claim asserted.  In the event that the Indemnifying Party
       contests the assertion of a claim by giving notice to the Indemnitee,
       then if the parties hereto, acting in good faith, cannot reach agreement
       with respect to such claim within ten days after such response notice,
       the Indemnitee is entitled to seek any available legal remedy in a
       manner consistent with the dispute resolution mechanism set forth in
       Article VI.

       (d)    CONTRIBUTION.  If the indemnification provided for in this Article
       III is unavailable to an Indemnitee with respect to an Indemnifiable Loss
       arising out of or related to information contained in the Information
       Statement or Form 10, then the Indemnifying Party, in lieu of
       indemnifying such Indemnitee, shall contribute to the amount paid or
       payable by such Indemnitee as a result of such Indemnifiable Loss, in
       such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the
       Media Information Group, on the one hand, and the New Ceridian Group, on
       the other hand.  The relative fault of any party shall be determined by
       reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue
       statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state
       a material fact relates to information supplied by that party or one of
       its Affiliates.

       (e)    NON-EXCLUSIVE REMEDY.  The remedies provided in this Article III
       shall be cumulative and shall not preclude assertion by any Indemnitee of
       any other rights or the seeking of any and all other remedies against any
       Indemnifying Party.

       (f)    REMEDY LIMITATION. All disputes, controversies or claims
       arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the breach, termination
       or validity thereof ("Dispute") brought by a third party beneficiary to
       this Agreement shall be exclusively and finally settled in accordance
       with the dispute resolution mechanism set forth in Article VI. In the
       event of a Dispute regarding the availability of third party benefits,
       no third party benefits provided by this Agreement shall be available
       to any third party beneficiary who pursues any form of dispute
       resolution inconsistent with the dispute resolution mechanism set forth
       in Article VI.

3.4    INDEMNIFICATION PAYMENTS.  Indemnification required by this Article III
shall be made by periodic payments of the amount thereof during the course of
the investigation or defense, as and when bills are received or loss, liability,
claim, damage or expense is incurred.

3.5    LIMITATION ON INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATIONS.

       (a)    INSURANCE.  The amount that any Indemnifying Party is or may be
       required to pay to any Indemnitee pursuant to this Article III shall be
       reduced (retroactively or prospectively) by any Insurance Proceeds or
       other amounts actually recovered from third parties by or on behalf of
       such Indemnitee in respect of the related Indemnifiable Losses.  The
       existence of a claim by an Indemnitee for insurance or against a third
       party in respect of any Indemnifiable Loss shall not, however, delay any
       payment pursuant to the indemnification provisions contained herein and
       otherwise determined to be due and owing by an Indemnifying Party.
       Rather, the Indemnifying Party shall make payment in full of such amount
       so determined to be due and owing by it against an assignment by the
       Indemnitee to the Indemnifying Party of the entire claim of the
       Indemnitee for such insurance or against such third party.
       Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, it is the
       intention of the parties hereto that no insurer or any other third party
       shall be (i) entitled to a benefit it would not be entitled to receive in
       the absence of the foregoing indemnification provisions; (ii) relieved of
       the responsibility to pay any claims for which it is obligated; or (iii)
       entitled to any subrogation rights with respect to any obligation
       hereunder.  If an Indemnitee shall have received the payment required by
       this

                                          24
<PAGE>

       Agreement from an Indemnifying Party in respect of any Indemnifiable
       Losses and shall subsequently actually receive Insurance Proceeds or
       other amounts in respect of such Indemnifiable Losses, then such
       Indemnitee shall hold such Insurance Proceeds in trust for the benefit of
       such Indemnifying Party and shall pay to such Indemnifying Party a sum
       equal to the amount of such Insurance Proceeds or other amounts actually
       received, up to the aggregate amount of any payments received from such
       Indemnifying Party pursuant to this Agreement in respect of such
       Indemnifiable Losses.

       (b)    FOREIGN CURRENCY ADJUSTMENTS.  In the event that any
       indemnification payment required to be made hereunder or under any
       Ancillary Agreement shall be denominated in a currency other than U.S.
       Dollars, the amount of such payment shall be translated into U.S. Dollars
       using the foreign exchange rate for such currency determined in
       accordance with the following rules:

              (i)    With respect to any Indemnifiable Losses arising from the
              payment by a financial institution under a guarantee, comfort
              letter, letter of credit, foreign exchange contract or similar
              instrument, the foreign exchange rate for such currency shall be
              determined as of the date on which such financial institution
              shall have been reimbursed;

              (ii)   With respect to any Indemnifiable Losses covered by
              insurance, the foreign exchange rate for such currency shall be
              the foreign exchange rate employed by the insurance company
              providing such insurance in settling such Indemnifiable Losses
              with the Indemnifying Party; and

              (iii)  With respect to any Indemnifiable Losses not covered by
              either clause (i) or (ii) above, the foreign exchange rate for
              such currency shall be determined as of the date that notice of
              the claim with respect to such Indemnifiable Losses shall be given
              to the Indemnitee.

       (c)    ADJUSTMENTS FOR TAXES.  The amount of any Indemnifiable Loss shall
       be:

              (i)    increased to take into account any net Tax cost actually
              incurred by the Indemnitee arising from any payments received from
              the Indemnifying Party (grossed up for such increase); and

              (ii)   reduced to take account of any net Tax benefit actually
              realized by the Indemnitee arising from the incurrence or payment
              of any such Indemnifiable Loss.

In computing the amount of such Tax cost or Tax benefit, the Indemnitee shall be
deemed to recognize all other items of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit
before recognizing any item arising from the receipt of any payment with respect
to an Indemnifiable Loss or the incurrence or payment of any Indemnifiable Loss.

3.6    INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.  The Corporation and New
Ceridian shall, to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law, indemnify,
defend and save harmless the persons

                                          25
<PAGE>

who were officers and directors of Ceridian, immediately prior to the
Distribution Date, from and against any and all liability (including any
judgments, losses, damages, civil penalties, excise taxes, interest and any
other form of liability or expense of any kind) or claim of liability (as
defined above and including any investigatory action) to which they may be
subjected by reason of any act alleged to have been done or omitted to be done
arising out of service as a director or officer in connection with their service
as officers and directors of Ceridian and any related or affiliated entity,
including all expenses reasonably incurred in their defense if the Corporation
and New Ceridian fail to provide such defense after having been requested to do
so in writing.  Regardless of whether the Corporation or New Ceridian assumes
such defense, counsel for such defense may be selected by the indemnified
officer or director.  Defense costs shall be indemnified as incurred in the
course of the defense or investigation.  The remedies provided by this Section
3.6 shall be cumulative and without prejudice to the assertion of any other
rights.  To the extent that an officer or director receives payment under any
liability insurance or other indemnification arrangement with respect to a
matter covered by this Section 3.6, that officer or director shall reimburse the
party which has made payments to him or her hereunder, but no reimbursement
shall be required except to the extent that the total which he or she has
received from all sources is greater than the aggregate amount of his or her
liability and expense with respect to that matter.  The liability of the
Corporation and New Ceridian with respect to the Indemnification provided in
this Section 3.6 shall be joint and several as to the officer or director in
question, but as between the Corporation and New Ceridian, such liabilityshall
be allocated to either the Media Information Group or the New Ceridian Group
based on whether the acts or omissions giving rise to the Liability are
attributable to officers or directors of the New Ceridian Group (in which case
such liability shall be allocated to the appropriate member of the New Ceridian
Group) or are attributable to officers or directors of the Media Information
Group (in which case such liability shall be allocated to the appropriate member
of the Media Information Group).  Notwithstanding the third-party beneficiary
provisions of this Agreement, the officers and directors covered by this Section
3.6 shall be and shall be deemed to be beneficiaries of this Article III and
shall be entitled to enforce their rights hereunder through legal action or
otherwise.

                                     ARTICLE IV
                               ACCESS TO INFORMATION

4.1    PROVISION OF CORPORATE RECORDS.

       (a)    The parties acknowledge that Records (as hereinafter defined) are
       Assets and, accordingly, all of the Corporation's Records shall belong to
       New Ceridian unless such Records exclusively relate to the Arbitron
       Business in which event such Records shall belong to the Corporation
       after the Effective Time.

       (b)    Other than in circumstances in which indemnification is sought
       pursuant to Article III (in which event the provisions of such Article
       will govern), after the Distribution Date, upon the prior written request
       by New Ceridian for specific and identified agreements, documents, books,
       records or files (collectively, "Records") which relate to (x) New
       Ceridian or the conduct of the New Ceridian Business up to the Effective
       Time, or (y) any Ancillary Agreement to which the Corporation and New

       soon as reasonably practicable following the receipt of such request, for
       the provision of appropriate copies of such Records (or the originals
       thereof if the party making the request has a reasonable need for such
       originals) in the possession or control of the Corporation or any of its
       Subsidiaries after the Effective Time, but only to the extent such items
       are not already in the possession or control of the requesting party.

       (c)    Other than in circumstances in which indemnification is sought
       pursuant to Article III (in which event the provisions of such Article
       will govern), after the Distribution Date, upon the prior written request
       by the Corporation for specific and identified Records which relate to
       (x) the Corporation, the Media Information Group or the conduct of the
       Media Information Business up to the Effective Time, or (y) any Ancillary
       Agreement to which New Ceridian and the Corporation are parties, as
       applicable, New Ceridian shall arrange, as soon as reasonably practicable
       following the receipt of such request, for the provision of appropriate
       copies of such Records (or the originals thereof if the party making the
       request has a reasonable need for such originals) in the possession or
       control of New Ceridian or any of its Subsidiaries after the Effective
       Time, but only to the extent such items are not already in the possession
       or control of the requesting party.

4.2    ACCESS TO INFORMATION.  Other than in circumstances in which
indemnification is sought pursuant to Article III (in which event the provisions
of such Article will govern), from and after the Distribution Date, each of the
Corporation and New Ceridian shall afford to the other and its authorized
accountants, counsel and other designated representatives reasonable access
during normal business hours, subject to appropriate restrictions for
classified, privileged or confidential information, to the personnel,
properties, books and records of such party and its Subsidiaries insofar as such
access is reasonably required by the other party and relates to (x) such other
party or the conduct of its business prior to the Effective Time or (y) any
Ancillary Agreement to which each of the party requesting such access and the
party requested to grant such access are parties.

4.3    REIMBURSEMENT; OTHER MATTERS.  Except to the extent otherwise
contemplated by any Ancillary Agreement, a party providing Records or access to
information to the other party under this Article IV shall be entitled to
receive from the recipient, upon the presentation of invoices therefor, payments
for such amounts, relating to supplies, disbursements and other out-of-pocket
expenses, as may be reasonably incurred in providing such Records or access to
information.

4.4     CONFIDENTIALITY.  Each of the Corporation and its Subsidiaries and New
Ceridian and its Subsidiaries shall not use or permit the use of (without the
prior written consent of the other) and shall keep, and shall cause its
consultants and advisors to keep, confidential all information concerning the
other party or parties in its possession, its custody or under its control
(except to the extent that (A) such information has been in the public domain
through no fault of such party or (B) such information has been later lawfully
acquired from other sources by such party or (C) this Agreement or any other
Ancillary Agreement or any other agreement entered into pursuant hereto permits
the use or disclosure of such information) to the extent such information (w)
relates to or was acquired during the period up to the Effective Time, (x)
relates to any Ancillary

                                          27
<PAGE>

Agreement, (y) is obtained in the course of performing services for the other
party pursuant to any Ancillary Agreement, or (z) is based upon or is derived
from information described in the preceding clauses (w), (x) or (y), and each
party shall not (without the prior written consent of the other) otherwise
release or disclose such information to any other person, except such party's
auditors and attorneys, unless compelled to disclose such information by
judicial or administrative process or unless such disclosure is required by law
and such party has used commercially reasonable efforts to consult with the
other affected party or parties prior to such disclosure.

4.5    PRIVILEGED MATTERS.  The parties hereto recognize that legal and other
professional services that have been and will be provided prior to the
Distribution Date have been and will be rendered for the benefit of each of the
Corporation, the members of the Media Information Group and the members of the
New Ceridian Group, and that each of the Corporation, the members of the Media
Information Group and the members of the New Ceridian Group should be deemed to
be the client for the purposes of asserting all privileges which may be asserted
under applicable law.  To allocate the interests of each party in the
information as to which any party is entitled to assert a privilege, the parties
agree as follows:

       (a)    The Corporation shall be entitled, in perpetuity, to control the
       assertion or waiver of all privileges in connection with privileged
       information which relates solely to the Media Information Business,
       whether or not the privileged information is in the possession of or
       under the control of the Corporation or New Ceridian. The Corporation
       shall also be entitled, in perpetuity, to control the assertion or waiver
       of all privileges in connection with privileged information that relates
       solely to the subject matter of any claims constituting Media Information
       Liabilities, now pending or which may be asserted in the future, in any
       lawsuits or other proceedings initiated against or by the Corporation,
       whether or not the privileged information is in the possession of or
       under the control of the Corporation or New Ceridian.

       (b)    New Ceridian shall be entitled, in perpetuity, to control the
       assertion or waiver of all privileges in connection with privileged
       information which relates solely to the New Ceridian Business, whether or
       not the privileged information is in the possession of or under the
       control of the Corporation or New Ceridian. New Ceridian shall also be
       entitled, in perpetuity, to control the assertion or waiver of all
       privileges in connection with privileged information which relates solely
       to the subject matter of any claims constituting New Ceridian
       Liabilities, now pending or which may be asserted in the future, in any
       lawsuits or other proceedings initiated against or by New Ceridian
       whether or not the privileged information is in the possession of or
       under the control of the Corporation or New Ceridian.

       (c)    The parties hereto agree that they shall have a shared privilege,
       with equal right to assert or waive, subject to the restrictions in this
       Section 4.5, with respect to all privileges not allocated pursuant to the
       terms of Sections 4.5(a) and (b). All privileges relating to any claims,
       proceedings, litigation, disputes, or other matters which involve both
       the Corporation and New Ceridian in respect of which both parties retain
       any responsibility or liability under this Agreement, shall be subject to
       a shared privilege among them.

                                         28


<PAGE>

       (d)    No party hereto may waive any privilege which could be asserted
       under any applicable law, and in which any other party hereto has a
       shared privilege, without the consent of the other party, except to the
       extent reasonably required by the party seeking to waive the privilege in
       connection with any litigation with third parties (and then only to the
       limited extent necessary under the circumstances) or the resolution of
       any Tax Claim as defined in the Tax Matters Agreement or as provided in
       subsection (e) below. Consent shall be in writing, or shall be deemed to
       be granted unless written objection is made within 20 days after notice
       upon the other party requesting such consent.

       (e)    In the event of any litigation or dispute between or among any of
       the parties hereto, any party and a Subsidiary of another party hereto,
       or a Subsidiary of one party hereto and a Subsidiary of another party
       hereto, either such party may waive a privilege in which the other party
       has a shared privilege, without obtaining the written consent of the
       other party, provided that such waiver of a shared privilege shall be
       effective only as to the use of information with respect to the
       litigation or dispute between the parties and/or their Subsidiaries, and
       shall not operate as a waiver of the shared privilege with respect to
       third parties.

       (f)    If a dispute arises between or among the parties hereto or their
       respective Subsidiaries regarding whether a privilege should be waived to
       protect or advance the interest of any party, each party agrees that it
       shall negotiate in good faith, shall endeavor to minimize any prejudice
       to the rights of the other parties, and shall not unreasonably withhold
       consent to any request for waiver by another party. Each party hereto
       specifically agrees that it will not withhold consent to waiver for any
       purpose except to protect its own legitimate interests.

       (g)    Upon receipt by any party hereto or by any Subsidiary thereof of
       any subpoena, discovery or other request made in connection with then
       pending litigation which arguably calls for the production or disclosure
       of information subject to a shared privilege or as to which another party
       has the sole right hereunder to assert a privilege, or if any party
       obtains knowledge that any of its or any of its Subsidiaries' current or
       former directors, officers, agents or employees have received any
       subpoena, discovery or other requests made in connection with pending
       litigation which arguably calls for the production or disclosure of such
       privileged information, such party shall promptly notify the other party
       or parties of the existence of the request and shall provide the other
       party or parties a reasonable opportunity to review the subpoena,
       discovery or other request and to assert any rights it or they may have
       under this Section 4.5 or otherwise to prevent the production or
       disclosure of such privileged information.

       (h)    The transfer of all Records and other information pursuant to this
       Agreement is made in reliance on the agreement of the Corporation and New
       Ceridian, as set forth in Sections 4.4 and 4.5, to maintain the
       confidentiality of privileged information and to assert and maintain all
       applicable privileges. The access to information being granted pursuant
       to Sections 4.1 and 4.2 hereof, the agreement to provide witnesses and
       individuals or litigation assistance pursuant to Sections 2.9 and 3.3
       hereof, the furnishing of notices and documents and other cooperative
       efforts contemplated by Section 3.3

                                          29
<PAGE>

       hereof, and the transfer of privileged information between and among the
       parties and their respective Subsidiaries pursuant to this Agreement
       shall not be deemed a waiver of any privilege that has been or may be
       asserted under this Agreement or otherwise.

4.6    OWNERSHIP OF INFORMATION.  Any information owned by one party or any of
its Subsidiaries that is provided to a requesting party pursuant to Article III
or this Article IV shall be deemed to remain the property of the providing
party. Unless specifically set forth herein, nothing contained in this Agreement
shall be construed as granting or conferring rights of license or otherwise in
any such information.

4.7    LIMITATION OF LIABILITY.

       (a)    No party shall have any liability to any other party in the event
       that any information exchanged or provided pursuant to this Agreement
       which is an estimate or forecast, or which is based on an estimate or
       forecast, is found to be inaccurate.

       (b)    No party or any Subsidiary thereof shall have any liability or
       claim against any other party or any Subsidiary of any other party based
       upon, arising out of or resulting from any agreement, arrangement, course
       of dealing or understanding existing on or prior to the Distribution Date
       (other than this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement or any agreement
       entered into in connection herewith or in order to consummate the
       transactions contemplated hereby or thereby), unless such agreement,
       arrangement, course of dealing or understanding is listed on Schedule
       4.7(b) hereto, and any such liability or claim, whether or not in
       writing, which is not reflected on such Schedule, is hereby irrevocably
       cancelled, released and waived.

4.8    OTHER AGREEMENTS PROVIDING FOR EXCHANGE OF INFORMATION.  The rights and
obligations granted under this Article IV are subject to any specific
limitations, qualifications or additional provisions on the sharing, exchange or
confidential treatment of information set forth in any Ancillary Agreement.

                                     ARTICLE V
                              ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES

5.1    PERFORMANCE OF SERVICES.  Beginning on the Distribution Date, each party
will provide, or cause one or more of its Subsidiaries to provide, to the other
party and/or its Subsidiaries such services on such terms as may be set forth in
the Transition Services Agreement. Except as otherwise set forth in the
Transition Services Agreement or any Schedule thereto, the party that is to
provide the services (the "Provider") will use (and will cause its Subsidiaries
to use) commercially reasonable efforts to provide such services to the other
party and/or its Subsidiaries (the "Recipient") in a satisfactory and timely
manner and as further specified in such Transition Services Agreement.

5.2    INDEPENDENCE.  Unless otherwise agreed in writing, all employees and
representatives of the Provider providing the scheduled services to the
Recipient will be deemed for purposes of all compensation and employee benefits
matters to be employees or representatives of the Provider and not employees or
representatives of the Recipient. In performing such services, such

                                          30
<PAGE>

employees and representatives will be under the direction, control and
supervision of the Provider (and not the Recipient) and the Provider will have
the sole right to exercise all authority with respect to the employment
(including, without limitation, termination of employment), assignment and
compensation of such employees and representatives.

5.3    NON-EXCLUSIVITY.  Nothing in this Agreement precludes any party from
obtaining, in whole or in part, services of any nature that may be obtainable
from the other party from its own employees or from providers other than the
other party.

                                     ARTICLE VI
                                 DISPUTE RESOLUTION

6.1    NEGOTIATION.  In the event of a controversy, dispute or claim arising
out of, in connection with, or in relation to the formation, interpretation,
performance, nonperformance, validity or breach of this Agreement or
otherwise arising out of, or in any way related to this Agreement or the
transactions contemplated hereby, including, without limitation, any claim
based on contract, tort, statute or constitution (including any Dispute by a
third party arising under Section 3 herein but excluding any controversy,
dispute or claim arising out of any agreement relating to the use or lease of
real property if any third party is a party to such controversy, dispute or
claim) (collectively, "Agreement Disputes"), the parties shall first
negotiate to settle such Agreement Dispute for a period not to exceed 30 days
from the time of receipt by a party of notice of an Agreement Dispute
("Notice"), unless otherwise agreed by the parties in writing; provided that
in the event of any arbitration in accordance with Section 6.2 hereof filed
within ninety (90) days of receipt of Notice, the parties shall not assert
the defenses of statute of limitations and laches arising for the period
beginning on the date of receipt of Notice.

6.2    ARBITRATION.  After 30 days have elapsed from the time of receipt of
Notice of an Agreement Dispute, at the demand of any party the Agreement
Dispute shall be finally and exclusively determined by arbitration conducted
in Minneapolis, Minnesota, in accordance with the then-existing Commercial
Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (the "Rules")
except as modified herein. The number of arbitrators shall be one. Any
judgment or award rendered by the arbitrator shall be final, binding and
nonappealable (except upon grounds specified in the Federal Arbitration Act,
9 U.S.C. ss.1 et seq. as in effect on the date hereof). If the parties are
unable to agree on the arbitrator within thirty (30) days of receipt by
respondent of the demand, the arbitrator shall be selected in accordance with
the Rules; provided that the arbitrator shall be a U.S. national. Any
controversy concerning whether an Agreement Dispute is an arbitrable
Agreement Dispute, whether arbitration has been waived, whether an assignee
of this Agreement is bound to arbitrate, or as to the interpretation of
enforceability of this Article VI shall be determined by the arbitrator.  In
resolving any dispute, the parties intend that the arbitrator apply the
substantive laws of the State of Minnesota, without regard to the choice of
law principles thereof. The parties intend that the provisions to arbitrate
set forth herein be valid, enforceable and irrevocable. The parties agree to
comply with any award made in any such arbitration proceeding that has become
final in accordance with the Rules and agree to enforcement of or entry of
judgment upon such


                                          31
<PAGE>

award, by any court of competent jurisdiction, including but not limited to
the District Court, County of Hennepin, Fourth Judicial District, State of
Minnesota or the United States District Court for Minnesota in Minneapolis,
Minnesota, in accordance with Section 8.17 hereof.  The arbitrator shall be
entitled, consistent with applicable law and the terms of this Agreement, to
award any remedy in such proceedings, including, without limitation, monetary
damages, specific performance and all other forms of legal and equitable
relief; provided, however, the arbitrator shall not be entitled to award
punitive or liquidated damages and the parties hereby waive any right
thereto.  Without limiting the provisions of the Rules, unless otherwise
agreed in writing by or among the parties or permitted by this Agreement, the
parties shall keep confidential all matters relating to the arbitration or
the award, provided such matters may be disclosed (i) tothe extent reasonably
necessary in any proceeding brought to enforce the award or for entry of a
judgment upon the award and (ii) to the extent otherwise required by law.
Notwithstanding the Rules, the party other than the prevailing party in the
arbitration shall be responsible for all of the costs of the arbitration,
including reasonable legal fees and other costs. Nothing contained herein is
intended to or shall be construed to prevent any party from applying to any
court of competent jurisdiction for interim measures or other provisional
relief in connection with the subject matter of any Agreement Disputes.  If a
court proceeding to stay litigation or compel arbitration is necessary, the
party who unsuccessfully opposes such proceeding shall pay all associated
costs, expenses and attorneys' fees which are reasonably incurred by the
other party.

6.3    CONTINUITY OF SERVICE AND PERFORMANCE.  Unless otherwise agreed in
writing, the parties will continue to provide service and honor all other
commitments under this Agreement and each Ancillary Agreement during the course
of dispute resolution pursuant to the provisions of this Article VI with respect
to all matters not subject to such dispute, controversy or claim.

6.4    TAX MATTERS AGREEMENT CONSENTS.  Notwithstanding any other provision of
this Agreement, the dispute resolution procedure set forth in Section 2.1(g)(4)
of the Tax Matters Agreement shall apply with respect to disagreements relating
to the application of Section 2.1(g) and the dispute resolution procedure set
forth in Section 7.3(c) of the Tax Matters Agreement shall apply with respect to
requests for consent pursuant to Section 7.3 of the Tax Matters Agreement.

                                    ARTICLE VII
                                     INSURANCE

7.1    POLICIES AND RIGHTS INCLUDED WITHIN ASSETS; ASSIGNMENT OF POLICIES.

       (a)    POLICY RIGHTS.  The New Ceridian Assets shall include any and all
       rights of an insured party under each of the New Ceridian Policies and
       the Shared Policies, subject to the terms of such Shared Policies and
       any limitations or obligations of New Ceridian contemplated by this
       Article VII, specifically including rights of indemnity and the right
       to be defended by or at the expense of the insurer, with respect to all
       claims, suits, actions, proceedings, injuries, losses, liabilities,
       damages and expenses incurred or claimed to have been incurred prior
       to the Effective Time by any party in or in connection with the conduct
       of the New Ceridian Business or, to the extent any claim is made
       against New Ceridian or any of its Subsidiaries, the conduct of the
       Media Information Business, and which claims, suits,


                                          32
<PAGE>

       actions, proceedings, injuries, losses, liabilities, damages and expenses
       may arise out of an insured or insurable occurrence under one or more of
       such Shared Policies.

       (b)    ASSIGNMENT OF SHARED POLICIES.  Subject to the terms and
       conditions hereof, the Corporation hereby assigns, transfers and conveys
       to New Ceridian all of the Corporation's right, title and interest in and
       to any and all of the New Ceridian Policies and the Shared Policies,
       including, without limitation, the right of indemnity, the right to be
       defended by or at the expense of the insurer and the right to any
       applicable Insurance Proceeds thereunder; and the Corporation and
       New Ceridian shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to obtain
       any required consents of insurers to the assignment contemplated by
       this paragraph.

7.2    POST-DISTRIBUTION DATE CLAIMS.  If, subsequent to the Distribution Date,
any person shall assert a claim against New Ceridian or any of its Subsidiaries
(including, without limitation, where New Ceridian or its Subsidiaries are joint
defendants with other persons) with respect to any claim, suit, action,
proceeding, injury, loss, liability, damage or expense incurred or claimed to
have been incurred prior to the Effective Time in or in connection with the
conduct of the New Ceridian Business or, to the extent any claim is made against
New Ceridian or any of its Subsidiaries (including, without limitation, where
New Ceridian or its Subsidiaries are joint defendants with other persons), in
connection with the conduct of the Media Information Business, and which claim,
suit, action, proceeding, injury, loss, liability, damage or expense may arise
out of an insured or insurable occurrence under one or more of the Shared
Policies, the Corporation shall, at the time such claim is asserted, to the
extent any such Policy may require that Insurance Proceeds thereunder be
collected directly by the named insured or anyone other than the party against
whom the Insured Claim is asserted, be deemed to designate, without need of
further documentation, New Ceridian as the agent and attorney-in-fact to assert
and to collect any related Insurance Proceeds under such Shared Policy.

7.3    ADMINISTRATION; OTHER MATTERS.

       (a)    ADMINISTRATION.  From and after the Distribution Date, New
       Ceridian shall be responsible for (i) Insurance Administration of the
       Shared Policies and (ii) Claims Administration under such Shared Policies
       with respect to Media Information Liabilities and New Ceridian
       Liabilities; provided that the assumption of such responsibilities by New
       Ceridian is in no way intended to limit, inhibit or preclude any right to
       insurance coverage for any Insured Claim of a named insured under such
       Policies as contemplated by the terms of this Agreement; provided further
       that New Ceridian's assumption of the administrative responsibilities for
       the Shared Policies shall not relieve the party submitting any Insured
       Claim of the primary responsibility for reporting such Insured Claim
       accurately, completely and in a timely manner or of such party's
       authority to settle any such Insured Claim within any period permitted or
       required by the relevant Policy; and provided further that all direct or
       indirect communication with insurers relating to the Shared Policies
       shall be conducted by New Ceridian. New Ceridian may discharge its
       administrative responsibilities under this Section 7.3 by contracting for
       the provision of services by independent parties. Each of the parties
       hereto shall administer and pay any costs relating to defending its
       respective Insured Claims under Shared Policies to the

                                          33
<PAGE>

       extent such defense costs are not covered under such Policies and shall
       be responsible for obtaining or reviewing the appropriateness of releases
       upon settlement of its respective Insured Claims under Shared Policies.
       The disbursements, out-of-pocket expenses and direct and indirect costs
       of employees or agents of New Ceridian relating to Claims Administration
       and Insurance Administration contemplated by this Section 7.3(a) shall be
       treated in accordance with the terms of the Transition Services
       Agreement, if still in effect with respect to insurance and risk
       management, or, if the Transition Services Agreement shall no longer be
       in effect with respect to insurance and risk management, then each of the
       Corporation and New Ceridian shall be responsible for its own Claims
       Administration and Insurance Administration.

       (b)    EXCEEDING POLICY LIMITS.  Except as set forth in this Section
       7.3(b), the Corporation and New Ceridian shall not be liable to one
       another for claims not reimbursed by insurers for any reason not within
       the control of the Corporation or New Ceridian, as the case may be,
       including, without limitation, coinsurance provisions, deductibles, quota
       share deductibles, self insured retentions, bankruptcy or insolvency of
       an insurance carrier, Shared Policy limitations or restrictions, any
       coverage disputes, any failure to timely claim by the Corporation or New
       Ceridian or any defect in such claim or its processing, provided that New
       Ceridian shall be responsible for the amount of the difference, if any,
       between the deductible set forth in any Shared Policy and the deductible
       allocable to the Corporation as set forth in Schedule 7.3(b) hereto.

       (c)    ALLOCATION OF INSURANCE PROCEEDS.  Insurance Proceeds received
       with respect to claims, costs and expenses under the Shared Policies
       shall be paid to New Ceridian, which shall thereafter administer the
       Shared Policies by paying the Insurance Proceeds, as appropriate, to the
       Corporation with respect to Media Information Liabilities and to New
       Ceridian with respect to New Ceridian Liabilities. Payment of the
       allocable portions of indemnity costs of Insurance Proceeds resulting
       from such Policies will be made by New Ceridian to the appropriate party
       upon receipt from the insurance carrier. In the event that the aggregate
       limits on any Shared Policies are exceeded by the aggregate of
       outstanding Insured Claims by both of the parties hereto, the parties
       agree to allocate the Insurance Proceeds received thereunder based upon
       their respective percentage of the total of their bona fide claims which
       were covered under such Shared Policy (their "allocable portion of
       Insurance Proceeds"), and any party who has received Insurance Proceeds
       in excess of such party's allocable portion of Insurance Proceeds shall
       pay to the other party the appropriate amount so that each party will
       have received its allocable portion of Insurance Proceeds pursuant
       hereto. Each of the parties agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts
       to maximize available coverage under those Shared Policies applicable to
       it, and to take all commercially reasonable steps to recover from all
       other responsible parties in respect of an Insured Claim to the extent
       coverage limits under a Shared Policy have been exceeded or would be
       exceeded as a result of such Insured Claim.

       (d)    ALLOCATION OF DEDUCTIBLES.  In the event that both parties have
