1.5 Outsourcing. It is contemplated that the Services shall be performed solely by the Providers or their respective affiliates. To the

it in providing any Service. 
 ARTICLE 2 

MIGRATION OF SERVICES; COSTS; OTHER CHARGES 

2.1 Migration of Services. The Parties hereby acknowledge that one of the primary purposes of this Agreement and the provision of
Services under this Agreement is to enable the Company to develop either independently or through relationships with third party vendors, services in replacement of the Services provided by the Providers. At the reasonable request of, and at no cost
to, the Company, the Providers will provide the Company with reasonable support to assist the Company in transitioning each Service within the timeframe set forth in the applicable Schedule. This support may include, at the Providers’ sole cost
and expense, (a) providing the Company with reasonable access to the personnel of the Providers and (b) providing the Company with reasonable access to documents or information in the possession

or control of the Providers and the right to make copies and extracts therefrom, in each case, to the extent related to the Services. 

2.2 Fees. The compensation for Services provided by each Provider to the Company shall be set forth on the applicable
Schedule, *************************************************************************************************** ************************************************************************************************************
************************************************************************************************************ ************************************************************************************************************
********************************* 
 2.3 Changes in Long Term Services. Unless otherwise mutually agreed to by the Parties, beginning
no later than February 1 of each calendar year starting in calendar year 2014, the Parties shall consult together to review the Long Term Services that will be provided as of the start of the following calendar year. This consultation process
shall be conducted by the Parties in good faith and in a reasonable manner, and if the Parties mutually agree to change any Long Term Service, then no later than April 1 of each calendar year starting in calendar year 2014, the Parties shall
execute a writing in the form of the Schedules (or other appropriate form), which shall constitute an amendment of this Agreement pursuant to Section 6.8, setting forth (a) any changes to the Long Term Services to which the Parties agree,
(b) the service change fees to be paid to the Providers in connection with the change of such Long Term Services and (c) the fees to be paid to the Providers for the provision of any such Long Term Services. For the avoidance of doubt,
except as provided in this Section 2.3 or in the applicable Schedule, the Company shall not reduce its usage of any of the Services. 

2.4 Invoicing and Settlement. 

2.4.1 Except as otherwise provided in the Schedules, each Provider shall invoice the Company on a monthly basis, in arrears,
for the previous month’s Services. 
 2.4.2 The Company agrees to pay amounts due within forty five (45) days after
the date of invoice. 
 2.4.3 Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company disputes in good faith and in writing, within
thirty (30) days of receipt of a Provider’s invoice, the amount reflected on such invoice, it may withhold payment of such disputed amount (the Company shall pay the undisputed portion (if any) of such invoice as provided in
Section 2.4.2). In the event of such a dispute, representatives of the Company and the applicable Provider shall promptly meet and use reasonable efforts to resolve the dispute, and the Company shall pay the agreed amounts owed to the
applicable Provider within five (5) days of resolution of any such dispute. In the event that representatives of the Company and the applicable Provider are unable to resolve the dispute, either the Company or the applicable Provider may then
submit the dispute to binding arbitration under the auspices of the International Centre for Dispute Resolution (the “ICDR”) in accordance with its International Arbitration Rules by a panel of three arbitrators, one chosen by the
Company, one chosen by the applicable Provider and one (who shall be the chairman of the panel)

chosen by the other two arbitrators. Such arbitrators shall not be limited to persons on the rosters maintained by the ICDR but rather may include all persons of demonstrated expertise in
international financial services matters. 
 ARTICLE 3

Company, whether or not created prior to the date of this Agreement (“Provider Intellectual Property”), shall remain the property of such Provider or its affiliates, as
applicable, and no rights therein shall be assigned or granted to the Company, other than as expressly provided herein. To the extent that any Provider Intellectual Property is required to be used by the Company in connection with the provision of
the Services hereunder, each Provider, for itself and as agent for its affiliates, hereby grants to the Company a perpetual, non- exclusive, limited, nontransferable, nonsublicensable (except as provided in the last sentence of this Section 3.1.2),
************ license to use such Provider Intellectual Property of such Provider or its affiliates solely in connection with the use of such Provider’s Services. For the sake of clarity, the Company may continue to use such Provider
Intellectual Property of such Provider or its affiliates in connection with such Services even if such Provider is no longer providing such Services; and, if a third party is engaged by the Company to provide such Services to the Company, and, in
connection therewith, such Provider Intellectual Property is required to be used by such third party, the Company may grant to such third party a non-exclusive, limited, nontransferable, nonsublicensable, ************ sublicense to use such Provider
Intellectual Property solely in connection with the provision of Services by such third party to the Company pursuant to a sublicense agreement among the Company, such third party and such Provider having terms reasonably satisfactory to such

3.1.4 Third Party Licensing. Certain systems and Software are used by the Providers under license agreements between the
Providers and various vendors (“Existing License Agreements”). The provision of the Services is contingent upon the rights granted in the Existing License Agreements. To the extent authorized by a vendor pursuant to an Existing
License Agreement, the Providers hereby pass through to the Company any and all warranties accompanying such third party systems and Software used in connection with the Services. To provide the applicable Services using such systems and Software,
the Providers may be required by the terms of the Existing License Agreements to negotiate new license agreements, consents or amendments to the Existing License Agreements, or the Company may be required to enter into new agreements directly with

amendments to the extent needed to provide the Services. All costs incurred in connection with obtaining any such new license agreements, consents or amendments shall be paid by the Providers. If any such new license agreement, consent or amendment

 4.2.3 Each Provider agrees to defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Company
and any of its affiliates and their respective directors, officers, employees, representatives and agents from and against any and all claims, actions, demands, legal proceedings or liabilities (collectively, “Actions”), and the
damages, losses, judgments, authorized settlements, costs or expenses, including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees, resulting therefrom (collectively, “Losses”), arising out of, or in connection with, any third
party claim: 
 4.2.3.1 that the Services and/or Work Product provided by such Provider (except to the extent of any design,
information, content, data or materials provided by the Company or a third party) infringes or misappropriates any Intellectual Property right of such third party; 

4.2.3.2 that the Services and/or Work Product provided by such Provider caused bodily injury (including death) or damaged real

 4.3 Indemnification Procedures. 

4.3.1 In the event that any Action shall be instituted or threatened in respect of which indemnity may be sought by a person
hereunder (an “Indemnitee”), such Indemnitee shall promptly notify the person against which a claim for indemnification is being asserted (“Indemnitor”) thereof in writing. Failure to provide such notice promptly shall not
affect the Indemnitor’s obligations hereunder except to the extent that the Indemnitor is actually prejudiced thereby. 

4.3.2 The Indemnitor shall have the right to control the defense of any such Action, and, in connection therewith, to retain
counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnitee, at the Indemnitor’s expense, to represent the Indemnitee. The Indemnitor shall keep the Indemnitee advised of the status of such Action and the defense thereof and shall consider in good faith
recommendations made by the Indemnitee with respect thereto. 
 4.3.3 In connection with any such Action, the Indemnitee
shall have the right to retain its own counsel at its own expense to participate in (but not control) the defense; provided, however, that the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be reimbursed by the Indemnitor if (a) the Action is one for
which indemnity may be sought by an Indemnitee pursuant to this Article 4 and the Indemnitor shall have failed, within a reasonable time after having been notified of the existence of such Action, to assume, and thereafter diligently prosecute, the
defense thereof, or (b) the named parties to any such Action include both the Indemnitor and such Indemnitee and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between
them. It is understood that, with respect to any legal expenses of the Indemnitee subject to reimbursement by the Indemnitor pursuant to this Article 4, the Indemnitor shall not be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one law firm (in
addition to any required local counsel) and that all fees and expenses of such counsel shall be paid as they are incurred and billed. 

4.3.4 The Indemnitor shall not be liable for the settlement of any Action effected without its written consent, but if an
Action is settled with its consent or if there is a final judgment against the Indemnitee, the Indemnitor shall indemnify the Indemnitee to the extent provided in this Article 4. The Indemnitor shall not effect any settlement of any Action in
respect of which an Indemnitee is seeking indemnification hereunder without the prior written consent of such Indemnitee (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed by such Indemnitee), unless such settlement includes an
unconditional release of such Indemnitee from all liability and claims that are the subject matter of such Action. 
 4.3.5
As necessary or useful to effecting the foregoing procedures, the Indemnitor shall cooperate with the Indemnitee in the execution and delivery of agreements, instruments and other documents and in the provision of access to witnesses, documents and
property (including access to perform interviews, physical investigations or other activities).

5.2 Termination. 

5.2.1 Subject to the provisions of the applicable Schedule, the Company may terminate a Provider’s obligation to provide
or procure any Service if the Provider shall have failed to perform any of its material obligations under this Agreement relating to any such Service, and the Company shall have notified Provider in writing of such failure and, to the extent
susceptible to cure, such failure shall have continued for a period of forty-five (45) days after receipt of such written notice. 

5.2.2 Subject to the provisions of the applicable Schedule, the Company may elect to terminate a Provider’s obligation to
provide or procure any Transition Service upon delivery to such Provider of prior written notice of such election at least three (3) months prior to the effective date of any such termination. For the avoidance of doubt, the notice provision in
this Section 5.2.2 does not apply to any Transition Service terminated pursuant to Section 5.2.1. 
 5.2.3 Subject
to the provisions of the applicable Schedule, a Provider may terminate its provision of any Service if: 
 5.2.3.1 the
Company shall have failed to perform any of its material obligations (including payment) under this Agreement relating to any such Service, and such Provider shall have notified the Company in writing of such failure and such failure shall have
continued for a period of at least thirty (30) days after receipt of such written notice; or 
 5.2.3.2 the Company is
using such Service in violation of law, rule or regulation or otherwise not in compliance with this Agreement, in which case the Provider may terminate its provision of such Service for the duration of such violation or noncompliance. 

5.3 Effect of Termination. Other than as required by law or as specifically stated in the Schedule relating to such Service, upon
termination of any Service, or upon termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms, no Provider shall, after such termination, have any further obligation to provide the terminated Service. 

5.3.1 Notwithstanding termination of this Agreement or any Service, and other than as set forth herein, the Company shall
remain liable to the Providers for fees

(including any service change fees) then owed and payable in respect of the Services provided prior to the effective date of the termination, and the provisions of Articles 3, 4, 5 and 6 shall
survive any such termination indefinitely. 
 5.3.2 Following termination of this Agreement with respect to any Service, each
Provider and the Company agree to cooperate in providing for an orderly transition of such Service to the Company or to a successor service provider. 

ARTICLE 6 

MISCELLANEOUS 
 6.1
Confidential Information. 
 6.1.1 Except as provided below, all oral or written information provided by a Party (a
“Disclosing Party”) to another Party (a “Receiving Party”) pursuant to this Agreement, including information relating to third parties, is deemed confidential (“Confidential Information”). A
Receiving Party will not use such information for any purpose other than the purpose for which it was disclosed and shall prevent the disclosure to third parties of any and all Confidential Information for a period of ten (10) years from the
termination or expiration of this Agreement, provided, that the Receiving Party’s obligation hereunder shall not apply to information that: 

6.1.1.1 is already rightfully in the Receiving Party’s possession on a non-confidential basis at the time of disclosure;

 6.1.1.2 is or subsequently becomes part of the public domain through no action of the Receiving Party; 

6.1.1.3 is subsequently rightfully received by the Receiving Party from a third party having no obligation of confidentiality
to the party disclosing the Confidential Information; or 
 6.1.1.4 is disclosed to third parties as required by law,
provided that if a Receiving Party is served with any subpoena or other legal process or a court or governmental request or order requiring or purporting to require the disclosure of any of the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information, the
Receiving Party shall, unless prohibited by law, promptly notify the Disclosing Party of such fact and cooperate fully (at the Disclosing Party’s expense) with the Disclosing Party and its legal counsel in opposing the legal process, seeking a
protective order, seeking to limit, or appealing any such legal process, request, or order to the extent deemed appropriate by the Disclosing Party. 

6.1.2 The Receiving Party agrees to use the same degree of care, but no less than a reasonable degree of care, to protect
against the unauthorized disclosure of a Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information as it uses to protect its own Confidential Information. Confidential Information may be disclosed by a Receiving Party to any of its employees, directors,
consultants or advisers, including legal counsel, tax advisers and auditors, on a need-to-know basis in connection with the performance of the Services,

Information may be inadequate, and each Party shall be entitled to seek injunctive relief for any breach of the provisions of this Agreement relating to the protection of its Confidential Information or Intellectual Property. Nothing contained in
this Section 6.1.4 shall be construed as limiting the Parties’ rights to any other remedies at law, including the recovery of damages for breach of this Agreement. 

6.2 Notices. All notices, requests, consents and other communications hereunder must be in writing and shall be deemed to have been

no such waiver shall be effective unless set forth in a written instrument duly executed by or on behalf of the Party waiving such term or condition. No waiver by any Party of any term or condition of this Agreement, in any one or more instances,
shall be deemed to be or construed as a waiver of the same or any other term or condition of this Agreement on any future occasion. All remedies, either under this Agreement or by law or otherwise afforded, shall be cumulative and not alternative.

of each Party. 
 6.9 No Third Party Beneficiary. The terms and provisions of this Agreement are intended solely for the benefit of

Party or the ultimate corporate parent of such Party or to a successor in interest, provided that any such assignee agrees in writing to be bound by all of the terms, conditions and provisions contained herein, but no such assignment shall relieve
such Party of its obligations hereunder. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement is binding upon, inures to the benefit of and is enforceable by the Parties and their respective successors and assigns.

for the Southern District of New York or any court of the State of New York located in the Borough of Manhattan in the City of New York in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, and agrees that any such action or
proceeding shall be brought only in such courts; provided, however, that such consent to jurisdiction is solely for the purpose referred to in this Section 6.11 and shall not be deemed to be a general submission to the jurisdiction of such
courts other than for such purpose. Each Party hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such action or proceeding brought in such courts and
any claim that any such action or proceeding brought in such courts has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

DTCC Deriv/SERV LLC (“Deriv/SERV”), on the one hand, and Markit North America, Inc. (“Markit U.S.”) and MarkitSERV Holdings Limited (“Markit U.K.”), on the other hand:
	 	 
	 	  	 a.      Deriv/SERV, Markit U.S. and Markit U.K.
entered into a Limited Liability Company Agreement of MarkitSERV, LLC, pursuant to which Deriv/SERV came to hold ****************** ******************************************************************************
****************************************************************************** ********************************************************************** the “MarkitSERV Shares”); and

	 	 
	 	  	 b.      Deriv/SERV, The Depository Trust &
Clearing Corporation (“DTCC”), the corporate parent of Deriv/SERV, Markit U.S. and Markit Group Limited (“MGL”), the corporate parent of Markit U.S., entered into a Parent Support Agreement pursuant to which Deriv/SERV, DTCC,
Markit U.S. and MGL have, since 2009, provided various support services to MarkitSERV, including legal services provided by the DTCC Legal Department to MarkitSERV U.S. and MarkitSERV U.K. (together “MarkitSERV”).

	 	 
	 	  	********************************************************************************** ******************************************************
	 	 
	 	  	Current Transaction. On the date hereof, in connection with the transfer of the MarkitSERV Shares from Ventures to Markit U.S. and Markit U.K.:
	 	 
	 	  	
a.      DTCC, Deriv/SERV, Ventures and certain of their affiliates, on the one hand, and
MGL, Markit U.S., Markit U.K., MarkitSERV U.S., MarkitSERV UK and certain of their affiliates, on the other hand, have entered into a Strategic Alliance Agreement to restructure and continue their relationship (in the context of MarkitSERV)
going
  

		  	

  

	1 	In addition to the specific Service Level Agreements set forth herein, with regard to Services to be provided by Deriv/SERV to MarkitSERV, the parties agree that they will work together in good faith subsequent to the
Closing to create and maintain a working transition plan for such Services. Such transition plan shall provide for the documents, training and other matters necessary for full transition of such Services.

	 	 	 forward (the “Alliance Agreement”);

	 	 
	 	 	
b.      Deriv/SERV, DTCC and MarkitSERV U.S. have entered into a Deriv/SERV Support
Agreement for DTCC and Deriv/SERV to provide certain transitional support services to or on behalf of MarkitSERV, including the temporary provision of the legal services described in this Schedule A1 (the “Deriv/SERV Support
Agreement”)
  

c.      MarkitSERV U.S., Deriv/SERV and DTCC have entered into a Company Support
Agreement for MarkitSERV to provide certain transitional support services to or on behalf of Deriv/SERV and DTCC (the “Company Support Agreement”); and
  

d.      MarkitSERV U.S., Deriv/SERV and DTCC have entered into a Collaboration Services
Agreement for the parties to continue to provide certain services to the other (in the context of MarkitSERV), as have been provided prior to the date hereof (the “Collaboration Agreement”).

	 	 
	 	 	Necessity for Service. ******************************************************************** ***************** it is acknowledged by the parties that, pursuant to the
Alliance Agreement, Deriv/SERV Support Agreement and Company Support Agreement, DTCC and its affiliates will continue to have a significant corporate and business interest in the uninterrupted operation of MarkitSERV business and the effective
delivery of MarkitSERV services to (i) DTCC and its affiliates and (ii) the financial services industry generally, including to the customers and clients of Deriv/SERV and other operating subsidiaries of DTCC. It is further acknowledged by
the parties that MarkitSERV has not had its own Legal Department since the formation of the joint venture in 2009, and that it will take some reasonable period of time for the MGL Legal Department to be able to fully, independently and competently
handle all MarkitSERV legal requirements (or for MarkitSERV to establish its own Legal Department to do so). In light of these unique and urgent circumstances, it is agreed by the parties that, from and after the date hereof:
	 	 
	 	 	
a.      the MGL Legal Department shall have primary responsibility for all MarkitSERV
legal requirements;
  

b.      the DTCC Legal Department shall have sole responsibility for all DTCC legal
requirements relating to the performance of its obligations under the Alliance Agreement, the Deriv/SERV Support Agreement and the Collaboration Agreement and its own immediate affairs relating to this Schedule A1; and
