3

 

and/or adherence to such additional security measures increases
FIS’s costs of operation, Client and FIS will discuss and mutually agree upon an appropriate
reimbursement for FIS.

7. Confidentiality and Data Security.

     7.1 Each party shall treat information received from the other that is designated as
“confidential” at or prior to disclosure (“Confidential Information”) as strictly confidential. FIS
designates all information relating to the Services, Third Party Services, Software, Deliverables,
Specifications and the terms of the Agreement as its Confidential Information. Client designates
non-public financial information that is personally identifiable to a Customer (referenced in the
Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999 as “Non-public Personal Information” or “NPI”) as its Confidential
Information.

     7.2 Each party shall: (i) restrict disclosure of the other party’s Confidential Information to
employees and agents solely on a “need to know” basis in accordance with the Agreement; (ii) advise
its employees and agents of their confidentiality obligations; (iii) require agents to protect and
restrict the use of the other party’s Confidential Information; (iv) use the same degree of care to
protect the other party’s Confidential Information as it uses to safeguard its own Confidential
Information of similar importance; (v) establish procedural, physical and electronic safeguards,
designed to meet the objectives of the FFIEC Interagency Guidelines, to prevent the compromise or
unauthorized disclosure of Confidential Information; and (vi) notify the other party of any
unauthorized possession or use of its Confidential Information as soon as possible following notice
of that unauthorized use or possession. FIS shall promptly notify Client of any incident that has
resulted or is likely to result in the misuse of NPI, and shall comply with all Laws regarding NPI
that are applicable to it as a third party processor. FIS shall adhere to the privacy policies and
security measures to protect the Non-public Personal Information of Client’s customers imposed
pursuant to Title V of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999 and Massachusetts data privacy laws and
regulations, including Mass. G.L. c. 93H, 201 C.M.R. §17 (Standards for the Protection of Personal
Information of Residents of the Commonwealth), and any other Massachusetts data privacy law and
regulations which may subsequently be enacted and issued, all as they may be modified from time to
time. FIS shall not send or store any Non-public Personal Information of Client’s customers
outside of the United States.

     7.3 Confidential Information shall remain the property of the party from or through whom it
was provided. Except for NPI, neither party shall be obligated to preserve the confidentiality of
any information that: (i) was previously known; (ii) is a matter of public knowledge; (iii) was or
is independently developed; (iv) is released for disclosure with written consent; or (v) is
received from a third party to whom it was disclosed without restriction. Disclosure of
Confidential Information shall be permitted if it is: (a) required by law; (b) in connection with
the tax treatment or tax structure of the Agreement; or (c) in response to a valid order of a U.S.
court or other governmental body, provided the owner receives written notice and is afforded a
reasonable opportunity to obtain a protective order. Upon partial termination of this Agreement
with respect to one or more services, each party shall destroy the other party’s Confidential
Information relating exclusively to that service according to written instructions received by the
party disclosing such Confidential Information, or if the other party that received such
Confidential Information declines to follow such instructions, said Confidential Information shall
be returned to the disclosing party. Upon termination of the Agreement, each party shall destroy
any remaining Confidential Information of the other party in the same manner or, return it to the
disclosing party at its expense.

8. Force Majeure, Time of Performance and Increased Costs and Error Correction.

     8.1 Neither party shall be held liable for any delay or failure in performance of all or
a portion of the Services of any part of this Agreement from any cause beyond its reasonable
control and without its fault or negligence, including, but not limited to, acts of God, acts of
civil or military authority, government regulations, government agencies, delay or failure to
receive any required government approvals, embargoes, epidemics, war, terrorist acts, riots,
insurrections, fires, explosions, earthquakes, nuclear accidents, floods, power
blackouts affecting facilities unusually severe weather conditions, (the “Affected Performance”).
Upon the occurrence of a condition described in this Section 8.1, the party whose performance is
affected shall give written notice to the other party describing the Affected Performance, and the
parties shall promptly confer, in good faith, to agree upon equitable, reasonable action to
minimize the impact, on both parties, of such condition, including, without limitation,
implementing the disaster recovery services. The parties agree that the party whose performance is
affected shall use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize the delay caused by the force
majeure events and recommence the Affected Performance. In the event the delay caused by the

4

 

force majeure event lasts for a period of more than 30 days, the parties shall negotiate an equitable
modification to this Agreement with respect to the Affected Performance. If the parties are unable
to agree upon an equitable modification within 15 days after such 30-day period has expired, then
either party shall be entitled to serve 30 days’ notice of termination on the other party with
respect to only such Affected Performance. If the Affected Performance is continuing upon the
expiration of such 30-day notice period the portion of this Agreement relating to the Affected
Performance shall automatically terminate. The remaining portion of the Agreement that does not
involve the Affected Performance shall continue in full force and effect. In such event FIS shall
be entitled to be paid for that portion of the Affected Performance for which it has completed or
is in the process of completing through the termination date.

     8.2 The parties agree that timely and accurate submission of input and output is
essential to satisfactory performance under this Agreement. FIS’s time of performance shall be
enlarged and its failure to perform shall be excused, if and to the extent reasonably necessary, in
the event that: (a) Client fails to submit input data in the prescribed form, (b) an act of God,
malfunction of any equipment or other cause beyond the control of FIS prevents timely data
processing hereunder, (c) special requests by Client or any governmental agency authorized to
regulate or supervise Client impact FIS’s normal processing schedule; or (d) if Client fails to
provide any equipment, software, premises or performance required of it under this Agreement and
the same is necessary for FIS’s performance hereunder (each hereinafter a “Performance Delay
Event”). If there is a Performance Delay Event, FIS will promptly notify Client of the estimated
impact of the Performance Delay Event on its processing schedule, if any.

     8.3 FIS’ total liability to Client is limited in all cases and in the aggregate to the
amount of fees actually paid by Client for the corresponding Service as identified in the pricing
attachment during the fifteen (15) months preceding the date of the event that is the basis for the
claim except for claims of indemnity in section 9.2 that will have a limit of $2,000,000. IF
REPROCESSING IS, IN CLIENT’S REASONABLE DISCRETION, A SATISFACTORY REMEDY FOR FIS’ BREACH, THEN
FIS’ SOLE OBLIGATION IN THE EVENT OF NEGLIGENCE OR ERROR BY FIS IN THE PERFORMANCE OR
NON-PERFORMANCE OF ITS DATA PROCESSING DUTIES HEREUNDER, IF ANY, SHALL BE LIMITED TO REPROCESSING
THE DATA FOR CLIENT. FIS’ OBLIGATION HEREIN IS CONTINGENT UPON CLIENT NOTIFYING FIS AS SOON AS
REASONABLY POSSIBLE AFTER CLIENT BECOMES AWARE THAT THE DATA IS ERRONEOUS. Neither party shall be
liable to the other for any indirect, incidental, consequential, special, delay or punitive damages
whatsoever (including but not limited to, damages for loss of business profits or revenue, business
interruption, loss of information, or other pecuniary loss), irrespective of the form of action or
even if the other party knew of or was advised of the possibility of such damage.

9. Indemnification

     9.1 Client shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless FIS and its officers, employees,
directors, agents, affiliates and shareholders, in their individual capacities or otherwise, from
and against any and all losses, claims, demands, penalties, actions, causes of action, suits,
obligations, liabilities, damages, delays, costs or expenses, including reasonable attorney’s fees
(collectively, “Losses”) asserted by a third party that result from, relate to, arise out of, or

personal injury or property damage; (ii) Client’s misuse of a Service, Materials, Third Party
Service, Software, Specifications or Deliverables; (iii) inaccurate or incomplete Data (other than
Data that became inaccurate or incomplete as a result of FIS actions or omissions); (iv) Client’s

applicable Laws; (vi) Client’s failure to comply with the terms of any Third Party Service
agreement; (vii) any claim of libel, violation of privacy rights (other than violations arising
from FIS violations of applicable law or this Agreement), unfair competition or infringement of
patents, trademarks, copyrights or other intellectual property caused by Client or a Customer; or
(viii) any Customer claim, action or suit (except for a customer claim arising from FIS violation
of applicable law regarding confidentiality of personal information),

     9.2 FIS shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Client, and its officers, employees,
directors, agents and shareholders, in their individual capacities or otherwise, from and against
any and all Losses asserted by a third party that result from, relate to, arise out of, or are
incurred in connection with: (i) FIS’ gross negligence or willful misconduct resulting in personal
injury or property damage; (ii) FIS’ failure to comply with laws applicable to FIS as a third party
provider of a Service; or (iii) a claim that a Service, Software, or Deliverable infringes a
registered U.S. patent, trademark or copyright. However, FIS shall not be liable for (and Client

5

 

FIS against) any infringement claim that results, in whole or in part, from: (a)
Client’s use of a Service, Software or Deliverable in a manner or for a purpose not specifically

programs, processes, hardware, systems, or services owned, licensed or provided by someone other

changes provided by FIS. If a claim of infringement of a registered U.S. patent, trademark or
copyright has been asserted, or in FIS’ opinion is about to be asserted, FIS may, at its option
either: (1) procure for Client the right to continue using the Service, Software or Deliverable;
(2) replace or modify the Service, Software, or Deliverable so that it becomes non-infringing; (3)
terminate the Agreement or SOW and refund all pre-paid fees covering future use of the Service,
Software or Deliverable; or (4) defend the action on Client’s behalf and pay any associated costs
or damages.

     9.3 The obligation to provide indemnification under this section is contingent upon: (i) the
indemnified party promptly notifying the indemnifying party in writing of any claim; (ii) the
indemnifying party having sole control over the defense and settlement of the claim; (iii) the
indemnified party reasonably cooperating during defense and settlement efforts; and (iv) the claim
not arising, in whole or in part, out of the action or inaction of the indemnified party.

     9.4 Except in the case of material breach by a party to whom the obligation of indemnification
would otherwise be owed, the obligations to provide indemnification under this section 9 shall
survive termination of this Agreement for a period of four (4) years for all claims other than
those relating to registered patent and/or trademark infringement, which shall survive for a period
of six (6) years after termination.

10 Termination and Additional Remedies.

     10.1 In addition to any other remedies, either party may terminate this Agreement or a Service
provided hereunder on thirty (30) days advance written notice if the other party: (i) fails to cure
a material breach within thirty (30) days of receiving written notice to do so; (ii) is the subject
of a dissolution, reorganization, insolvency or bankruptcy action that is not dismissed within
forty-five (45) days of being filed; (iii) suffers the appointment of a receiver, conservator or

(v) discontinues performance under the Agreement because of a binding order of a court or

party may not terminate the Agreement so long as the breaching party promptly commences work and
completes correction within ninety (90) days of receiving written notice of the breach.

     10.1.1 If the breach is for FIS breach of obligations relating to confidentiality or data
security, which in the reasonable judgment of Client, materially and adversely affect Client, FIS
shall cure such breach within ten (10) days after such notice. If FIS does not cure such breach by
such date, or is not working diligently in good faith to cure such breach where a breach cannot
reasonably be expected to be cured within ten (10) days, Client may, at its sole option, elect to
terminate this Agreement by giving written notice of such election to FIS (the date said notice is
sent is the “Client Termination Date”). In such case, within thirty (30) days after the Client
Termination Date, FIS shall pay Client’s direct out-of-pocket damages, actually incurred. Client
shall have no additional financial obligation to FIS after the Client Termination Date provided
that Client other than payments owing to FIS through the Client Termination Date

     10.2 Due to the likelihood of irreparable injury, each party shall be entitled to seek an
injunction against the other for any breach of confidentiality, indemnification and intellectual
property obligations.

If an Addendum is terminated by FIS prior to the end of its term pursuant to the
terms of the Agreement, or if Client terminates the Agreement or an Addendum prior to the end of
its term (except as otherwise permitted hereunder), Client shall pay FIS, in addition to any other
amounts owed, liquidated damages (“Services Liquidated Damages”) equal to: (i) the greater
of (a) fifty percent (50%) of the average monthly fees incurred
under each terminated Addendum during the preceding six (6) months (or, during such shorter period
if the Service has been in production for less than six (6) months), (b) any minimum fees due under
each Addendum, or (c) fifty percent (50%) of the estimated monthly charge for the Service (as set
forth in the pricing attachment to each terminated Addendum), in each case multiplied by the number
of months remaining in the then current period of the terminated Addendum; (ii) any costs incurred
by FIS as a consequence of the termination; plus (iii) any unpaid one-time fees set forth in each
terminated Addendum. Client shall not be entitled to a refund of any pre-paid amounts. If
termination of the Agreement or an Addendum occurs prior to the providing of any

6

 

such Services,
then the amount due under subsection (i) above will be calculated using the minimum monthly amount
due for each such Service, if any, or the estimated monthly charge (as set forth in the pricing
attachment) that FIS would have reasonably expected to receive.

     10.3 In the event FIS breaches the terms of this Agreement by failing to perform the Item
Processing Services such that transaction files are {****} Client has the option to
terminate the Item Processing Service and convert to another Item Processing provider without
incurring Services Liquidated Damages.

     10.4 In the event FIS breaches the terms of this Agreement by failing to perform the Print and
Render Services such that requested statements are not mailed {****} Client has the
option to terminate the Print and Render Service without incurring Services Liquidated Damages.

     10.5 If this Agreement expires, or if Client terminates by virtue of FIS’s breach,
upon Client’s request, FIS agrees to provide to Client, at no additional cost or expense to Client,
copies of Client’s data files, records and programs on magnetic media.

     10.6 Upon termination, Client shall also pay a reasonable deconversion fee that covers
FIS’ time and resources spent in the coordination of the deconversion, conference calls,
information exchange and removing of all programs from FIS as well as the direct and ancillary
costs and expenses incurred by FIS. FIS shall use reasonable efforts to minimize any
deconversion fees, but in no event shall the amount due for deconversion fees and related expenses
be less than $5,000 or exceed $50,000.

11. Transitional Cooperation.

     After notice of termination and prior to the Termination Date, or for six months prior to the
Expiration Date, FIS agrees that:

     11.1 Transition. Provided that FIS has not terminated this Agreement for a Client default,
FIS will give its cooperation and support to Client to transition to whatever method of item
processing Client may select.

     11.2 Additional Support. Client shall have the option, exercisable within 90 days of delivery
of a termination notice by either party, to request up to 90 days of additional technical support
from FIS subsequent to the applicable termination date. Client will pay for such support at FIS’s
then-current hourly rates.

12. Backup, Storage, Files and Programs.

[intentionally omitted]

13. Effective Planning and Communication.

     13.1 Audit Conference. FIS will cooperate fully with Client or its
designee in connection with Client’s audit functions or with regard to examinations by regulatory
authorities as such audit or examination relates to the Services. Client acknowledges that FIS is
not responsible for providing audit services or for auditing Client’s records or data. Following
any such audit or examination, Client will conduct (in the case of an internal audit), or instruct
its external auditors or examiners to conduct an exit conference with FIS and, at such time, and
as soon as available thereafter, to provide FIS with a copy of the applicable portions of each
report regarding FIS or FIS’s Services (whether draft or final) prepared as a result of such audit
or examination. Client also agrees to provide and to instruct its external auditors to provide
FIS, a copy of the portions of each written report containing comments concerning FIS or the
Services performed by FIS pursuant to this Agreement. Client agrees that any audit or examination
shall be conducted in a manner which does not unreasonably delay, disrupt or interfere with FIS’s
delivery of the Services to Client or the delivery by FIS of services to its other customers.
Furthermore, Client shall reimburse any reasonable costs incurred by FIS as a result of FIS’s
cooperation with Client’s auditors or

7

 

examiners, and FIS shall notify Client as soon as reasonably
possible if FIS anticipates incurring any additional costs due to cooperation with auditors or
examiners.

     13.2 Relationship Management. In furtherance of the relationship established by this
Agreement and the objectives of this Section 13, the parties shall each appoint one or more
relationship managers (each a “Manager”) to oversee and supervise their relationship under this
Agreement. The parties may change the person appointed as their Manager(s) at any time, upon
written notice to the other party. The Managers will speak on a regular and frequent basis. The
Managers will, during the first year of the Term, meet at Client’s facilities on at least a monthly
basis and, during the remainder of the Term, meet at Client’s facilities no less than once every
quarter, unless the Managers for both parties agree a meeting is not necessary. The purpose of
conversations and meetings will be to discuss and identify any potential sources of
misunderstanding that may have arisen with respect to this Agreement and the relationship between
the parties.

     In the event that any problems are identified, the Managers will attempt to resolve any issues
together. At such time as both Managers agree that a problem has not been resolved and may lead to
a dispute, the Managers will advise their respective managements and arrange a meeting between
appropriate representatives of each party for the purpose of attempting to resolve the issue. If
any such informal attempts to resolve the dispute prove to be unsuccessful, the parties may resort
to the formal Dispute Resolution Procedure set forth below of this Agreement.

     Once any problem has been resolved, the Managers will prepare a joint written report and
submit the report to their Management with a clear explanation of the problem, as well as the
resolution.

     13.3 Formal Dispute Resolution Procedures. In the event a formal dispute arises between FIS
and Client with respect to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, or any subject matter
governed by this Agreement, other than disputes regarding a party’s compliance with the
confidentiality provisions of this Agreement, the parties shall, prior to terminating this
Agreement, attempt in good faith to resolve any such dispute as set forth in this Section.

          (a) Claims Procedures. If any party shall have any dispute with respect to the terms
and conditions of this Agreement, or any subject matter referred to in or governed by this
Agreement, that party through its Manager shall provide written notification to the Manager of
other party in the form of a claim identifying the issue or amount disputed and including a
detailed reason for the claim. The party against whom the claim is made shall respond, in writing,
to the claim within 14 days from the date of receipt of the claim document. The party filing the
claim shall have an additional 14 days after the receipt of the response to either accept the
resolution offered by the other party or may, at its option and its sole and absolute discretion,
choose to request implementation of the procedures set forth below (the “Escalation Procedures”).
Neither party, however, shall have any obligation to elect to proceed with Escalation Procedures if
it is dissatisfied with the response to the claim it has submitted.

          (b) Escalation Procedures. If the negotiations conducted pursuant to the Claims
Procedures set forth above do not lead to resolution of the underlying dispute or claim to the
satisfaction of the party that made the claim, then that party may, at its option and in its sole
and absolute discretion, notify the other in writing that it desires to elevate the dispute or
claim to a higher level of authority within FIS’s organization and within Client’s organization for
resolution. Upon receipt by the other party of such written notice, the dispute or claim shall be
so elevated and such higher level authorities shall negotiate in
good faith and each use their reasonable best efforts to resolve the dispute or claim. The
location, format, frequency, duration and conclusion of these elevated discussions shall be left to
the discretion of the representatives involved. Upon agreement, the representatives may utilize
other alternative dispute resolution procedures to assist in the negotiations. Discussions and
correspondence among the representatives for purposes of these negotiations shall be treated as
confidential information developed for purposes of settlement which shall not be admissible in any
subsequent proceedings between the parties. Documents identified in or provided with such
communications, which are not prepared for purposes of the negotiations may, if otherwise
admissible, be admitted in evidence in such subsequent proceeding.

     13.4 Strategic Planning Meetings. FIS and Client executive management shall meet once a year
at a mutually agreed upon time and at a mutually agreed upon location to discuss strategic
initiatives being undertaken by each party.

14. Payment and Billing.

     14.1 Client agrees to pay FIS for the Services as set forth in the Attachment 1, promptly upon
receipt of invoices prepared and delivered to Client. All processing fees shall be payable on the
first day of each month, for Services to be rendered during that month. Any pass-through costs or
fees shall be reflected in the next monthly invoice. Laser printer usage fees, for the FIS
printers in place on the Effective Date will be the responsibility of FIS. Laser printer usage
fees for any new printers implemented after the Effective Date will be mutually agreed upon by the
parties and memorialized in an amendment to this Agreement.

     14.2 Any amount not received by the later of the 30th day after Client’s receipt of
an invoice or the date payment is due, shall be subject to interest on the balance overdue at a
rate equal to the lesser of: (i) the prime rate plus 2% per annum as announced from time to time by
the Bank of America or its successor or (ii) 12% , in each case, for the number of days from the
payment due date up to and including the date payment is actually made by Client (calculated on the
basis of the actual days in the applicable calendar year).

     14.3 Should Client dispute in good faith all or any portion of the amount due on any invoice
or require any adjustment to an invoiced amount, Client shall notify FIS in writing, prior to the
due date of that invoice, of the nature and basis of the dispute and/or adjustment as soon as
possible. The parties each shall use reasonable best efforts to resolve the dispute prior to the
payment due date. If the parties, however, are unable to resolve the dispute prior to the payment
due date, Client shall nevertheless pay any undisputed amounts to FIS by the due date.

15. No Interference with Contractual Relationship.

     Client warrants that, as of the Effective Date, it is not subject to any contractual
obligation that would prevent Client from entering into this Agreement, and that FIS’s offer to
provide the Services in no way caused or induced Client to breach any contractual obligation.

16. No Waiver of Default.

     The failure of either party to exercise any right under this Agreement shall not constitute a
waiver of the rights granted herein to that party.

17. Fee Adjustments Related to Merger or Acquisition or Changed Services.

     17.1 Merger or Acquisition. Upon written request by Client, FIS will process additional data
resulting from any merger or acquisition involving Client; subject
to Client’s payment of additional fees, and subject to mutual agreement on the fees, if any,
applicable to related conversion and testing services, provided however, {****}.

     17.2 Increases Based on Changes in Services. In accordance with this Agreement, Client and
FIS will meet regularly to assess hardware capacity requirements, staffing requirements,
significant increases in volume-related services, changes in or additions to Client-Provided
Software, and various requests for additional services as Client may make from time to time. Any
such changes will be mutually agreed upon by FIS and Client prior to any of them being implemented.

18. Assignment.

9

 

     Neither party hereto shall assign, subcontract, or otherwise convey or delegate its rights or
duties hereunder to any other party except as to Client for any of Client’s 50% or more owned or
controlled subsidiaries, companies, or its holding company, if any, without the prior written
consent of the other party to this Agreement, which consent shall provide that it is subject to all
the terms and conditions of this Agreement and in such case, such consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld. No such consent shall be required in the event of a merger, consolidation, sale of
substantially all of the assets, or any other change of control of either party hereto, in which
event, this Agreement shall apply to, inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon the parties
hereto and upon their respective successors in interest.

19. Governing Law/Forum Selection/Arbitration.

     19.1 Governing Law/Forum Selection. This Agreement shall be interpreted, construed, governed
and enforced in accordance with the laws {****}, excluding any provisions regarding conflicts of
law.

     19.2 Arbitration Procedures. Any claim, controversy or dispute between the parties with
respect to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, or any subject matter governed by this
Agreement, other than disputes regarding a party’s compliance with the confidentiality provisions
of this Agreement (which either party may present to a court of competent jurisdiction), that has
not been resolved through informal methods set forth in this Agreement shall be resolved through
binding arbitration of the issue in accordance with the following procedures. The election of
arbitration as the sole ultimate remedy for dispute resolution, however, shall not limit the
ability of either party to send notices of termination or otherwise exercise their rights of
termination set forth in this Agreement.

          (a) Either party may request arbitration by giving the other involved party written notice to
such effect, which notice shall describe, in reasonable detail, the nature of the dispute,
controversy or claim. Such arbitration shall be governed by the Commercial Arbitration Rules of
the American Arbitration Association, 1939 Rhode Island Avenue, N.W., Suite 509, Washington, D.C.
20036 (“AAA”), as amended by this Agreement and conducted in English.

          (b) Upon either party’s request for arbitration, an arbitrator shall be selected by mutual
agreement of the parties to hear the dispute in accordance with AAA rules. If the parties are
unable to agree upon an arbitrator, then either party may request that the AAA select an arbitrator
and such arbitrator shall hear the dispute in accordance with AAA rules. For disputes amounting to
US $1,000,000 or more, a panel of three arbitrators shall be selected to hear the dispute. In such
case, each party shall select one arbitrator who shall be unaffiliated with such party, and the two
arbitrators shall select a third arbitrator. If the two arbitrators are unable to agree upon a
third arbitrator, the AAA will select the third arbitrator. In the case of a three-arbitrator
panel, the decision of a majority shall control {****}

          (c) Each of the parties shall bear its own fees, costs and expenses of the arbitration and its
own legal expenses, attorneys’ fees and costs of all experts and witnesses. Unless the award
provides otherwise, the fees and expenses of the arbitration procedures, including the fees of the
arbitrator or arbitrators, will be shared equally by the involved parties. At such time as the
dispute is resolved, interest at a rate equal to the lesser of (i) the prime rate plus 2% per annum
as announced from time to time by the Bank of America or its successor or (ii) 12% (as calculated
on the basis of the actual days in the applicable calendar year) for the period of dispute shall be
paid to the party entitled to receive the disputed monies to compensate for the lapsed time between
the date such disputed amount originally was to have been paid (or was paid) through the date
monies are paid (or credited) in settlement of the dispute.

          (d) Any award rendered pursuant to such arbitration shall be final, conclusive and binding
upon the parties, and any judgment thereon may be entered and enforced in any court of competent
jurisdiction.

10

 

20. Taxes.

     All charges and fees to be paid by Client under this Agreement are exclusive of any applicable
withholding, sales, use, value added, excise, services or other United States or foreign tax which
may be assessed on the provision of the Services. In the event that a withholding, sales, use,
value added, excise, value added, services or other United States or foreign tax is assessed on the
provision of any of the Services provided to Client under this Agreement, Client will pay directly,
reimburse or indemnify FIS for such taxes, as well as any applicable interest, penalties and other
FIS fees and expenses. The parties will cooperate with each other in determining the extent to
which any tax is due and owing under the circumstances, and shall provide and make available to
each other any resale certificates, information regarding out-of-state or country use of materials,
services or sale, and other exemption certificates or information reasonably requested by either
party.

otherwise regulate FIS’s operations or its employees, except as herein provided for security of
Client’s data and detection of errors in processing.

FIS and FIS shall be solely responsible for payment of compensation to such personnel.

as to any matters, except as expressly authorized herein.

GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS

1. Introduction. These general terms and conditions (“General Terms”)
together with the Item Processing and other Services Agreement and each Addendum, now or hereafter
attached to the Agreement (as defined herein), are a part of the Information Technology Services
Agreement (the “Agreement”) between Independent Bank Corp. of Rockland, MA (“Client”) and
Fidelity Information Services, Inc., (together with its subsidiaries and affiliates,
“FIS”). The pricing attachment(s) related to each Addendum are incorporated into and made a
part of the Agreement.

2. Services. If a fully executed Addendum or other Service Agreement describes the
provision of a service (“Service”) by FIS, the following subsections apply:

     2.1 The “Commencement Date” of a Service is the earlier of: (i) the date the Service
is first installed and available for Client’s use in production; (ii) Client’s first production use
of the Service; or (iii) the commencement date agreed upon by the parties in writing. In the event
that there is a dispute over the Commencement Date and the parties are unable to mutually agree
upon a Commencement Date after reasonable discussion, the Commencement Date shall be deemed to be
the three (3) month anniversary of the Effective Date of the Addendum for that Service. If
commencement of a Service is delayed for more than ninety (90) days after the Effective Date of the
Addendum (or sixty (60) days after the agreed upon Commencement Date for a denovo client) for any
reason beyond FIS’ control, FIS may suspend delivery of the Service and Client shall pay any
one-time fees and minimum fees through the balance of the Addendum’s term. Commencement may be
rescheduled to a mutually agreed date upon request.

     2.2 FIS shall be the exclusive provider of each Service, and Client shall use each Service
solely in accordance with FIS’ then current standard user operating instructions and requirements
(“Specifications”).

     2.3 If Client pays all applicable fees when due, FIS shall: (i) provide Client and Client’s
U.S. customers (“Customers”) with access to and use of the Service in accordance with the
Specifications; (ii) provide Client with standard reporting, if any, associated with usage of the
Service; and (iii) perform the Service in compliance with all federal laws and regulations
applicable to third party providers of that Service.

     2.4 Client shall: (i) provide Customer information to FIS in accordance, and otherwise comply,
with the Specifications; (ii) assume all risk and liability associated with transactions, including
any risk of counterfeit, charged-back or fraudulent transactions; (iii) comply with all applicable
rules, regulations and laws associated with use of a Service, including those relating to usury,
truth-in-lending, fair credit reporting, equal credit opportunity, automated clearing house
transfers, networks associations, electronic funds transfer, privacy and direct marketing
(“Laws”), regardless of whether Client uses any forms or other Materials supplied by FIS;
and (iv) provide FIS with notice of any changes in applicable Law that impact the Service. Any
modification in a Service necessitated by a change in Laws shall be paid for by Client. However,
FIS shall endeavor to distribute the cost of such changes among all FIS clients impacted.

     2.5 When applicable, Client shall be solely responsible for the transmission of any
information, data, records or documents (collectively, “Data”) necessary for FIS to perform
a Service at Client’s expense, and shall bear any risk of loss resulting from that transmission
until FIS confirms receipt. FIS shall bear the risk of loss resulting from Data transmitted to
Client until Client confirms receipt. If Client directs FIS to disclose Data to a third party,
Client shall provide FIS with written authorization to do so and bear any risk of loss or liability
associated with that disclosure. In addition, FIS shall be held harmless from any claim resulting
from the third party’s use of that Data, and may, in its discretion, require the third party to
enter into a written agreement with FIS governing disclosure of that Data.

     2.6 In accordance with FFIEC business continuity guidelines, FIS has put in place a disaster
recovery plan designed to minimize the risks associated with a disaster affecting FIS’ ability to
provide the Services under the Agreement. FIS’ recovery time objective (RTO) under such plan is
seventy-two (72) hours from the time FIS declares a disaster. FIS will maintain adequate backup
procedures in order to recover Client’s Data to the point of the last available good backup, with a
recovery point objective (RPO) of twenty-four (24) hours, depending on the availability of data.
FIS will test its disaster recovery plan annually. Upon request, FIS will provide a
summary of its disaster recovery plan and test results, excluding any proprietary information
or NPI. Client

16

 

authorizes FIS to provide Client’s Data to external suppliers in order to test and
prepare for disaster recovery, as well as provide replacement services in the event of a disaster.
Client is responsible for adopting a disaster recovery plan relating to disasters affecting
Client’s facilities and for securing business interruption insurance or other insurance necessary
for Client’s protection.

     2.7 FIS may change features, functions, and attributes of a Service from time to time so long
as those changes do not have a material adverse impact on the performance of the Service. If Client
requests a change to a Service, the parties shall negotiate the terms for such change, which terms
will be set forth in a mutually agreed upon statement of work (“SOW”).

     2.8 Upon termination of the Agreement or an Addendum, FIS shall cooperate in the transition of
the Services to Client or a replacement service provider and, if requested by Client, perform
ancillary services for the applicable fees. However, no master files, transaction data, test data,
record layouts or other similar information shall be provided by FIS until: (i) Client and, if
applicable, the replacement service provider, have executed FIS’ deconversion confidentiality
agreement; (ii) Client has fully paid all outstanding amounts; (iii) Client has made a reasonable
deposit or completely prepaid FIS’ fees for deconversion assistance; and (iv) the parties mutually
agree on a date for deconversion that is at least one hundred eighty (180) days following FIS’
receipt of Client’s notice of deconversion. If the one hundred eighty (180) day period ends between
the third week of November and the third week of January, the time period for completing
deconversion may be extended until the first week of February. In addition, upon termination of the
Agreement, FIS may, at Client’s request and expense, continue to provide the corresponding
Service(s) until the deconversion is completed, provided the parties agree to such continuation in
writing.

     2.9 FIS’ total liability for a Service is limited in all cases and in the aggregate to the
amount of fees actually paid by Client for the corresponding Service during the twelve (12) months
preceding the date of the event that is the basis for the first claim. NOTWITHSTANDING THE
FOREGOING, FIS’ SOLE OBLIGATION IN THE EVENT OF NEGLIGENCE OR ERROR BY FIS IN THE PERFORMANCE OR
NON-PERFORMANCE OF ITS DATA PROCESSING DUTIES HEREUNDER, IF ANY, SHALL BE LIMITED TO REPROCESSING
THE DATA FOR CLIENT. FIS’ OBLIGATION HEREIN IS CONTINGENT UPON CLIENT PROMPTLY NOTIFYING FIS WITHIN
TWO (2) BUSINESS DAYS OR TWO (2) PROCESSING CYCLES AFTER THE RECEIPT OF ERRONEOUS DATA. FIS shall
not be liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, special, delay or punitive damages
whatsoever (including but not limited to, damages for loss of business profits or revenue, business
interruption, loss of information, or other pecuniary loss), even if FIS was advised of the
possibility of such damage.

     2.10 If an Addendum is terminated by FIS prior to the end of its term pursuant to the terms of
the Agreement, or if Client terminates the Agreement or an Addendum prior to the end of its term
(except as otherwise permitted hereunder), Client shall pay FIS, in addition to any other amounts
owed, liquidated damages (“Services Liquidated Damages”) equal to: (i) the greater of (a)
fifty percent (50%) of the average monthly fees incurred under each terminated Addendum during the
preceding six (6) months (or, during such shorter period if the Service has been in production for
less than six (6) months), (b) any minimum fees due under each Addendum, or (c)
the
estimated monthly charge for the Service (as set forth in the pricing attachment to each
terminated Addendum), in each case multiplied by the number of months remaining in the then current
period of the terminated Addendum; (ii) any costs incurred by FIS as a consequence of the
termination; plus (iii) any unpaid one-time fees set forth in each terminated Addendum. Client
shall not be entitled to a refund of any pre-paid amounts. If termination of the Agreement or an
Addendum occurs prior to the providing of any such Services, then the amount due under subsection
(i) above will be calculated using the minimum monthly amount due for each such Service, if any, or
the estimated monthly charge (as set forth in the pricing attachment) that FIS would have
reasonably expected to receive.

3. Third Party Services. If an Addendum describes the provision of a third party product or
service (“Third Party Service”), the following subsections also apply:

     3.1 With respect to each Third Party Service, FIS shall: (i) provide Client with the
applicable standard reporting; (ii) bill Client for use; and (iii) provide Level One Customer Care
(as defined below) to Customers. Client acknowledges that FIS is not the provider of any Third
Party Service, and Client shall, if required by FIS, enter into a separate agreement for the Third
Party Service directly with the applicable provider. In its provision of “Level One Customer
Care”, FIS will: (i) handle incoming Customer calls regarding a Third Party Service, (ii)
gather information to identify the issue, (iii) respond to basic Customer questions; and (iv) if
necessary, refer

17

 

issues requiring further analysis or troubleshooting to the Third Party Service provider for
additional Customer support.

     3.2 FIS makes no warranties or representations of any kind regarding the correctness,
accuracy, completeness, merchantability or fitness of any Third Party Service or any associated
data, information or system. FIS will pass through to Client end-user warranties to the extent
received by FIS from Third Party Service providers.

     3.3 If a Third Party Services Addendum is terminated by FIS prior to the end of its term
pursuant to the terms of the Agreement or if Client terminates the Agreement or a Third Party
Services Addendum prior to the end of its term (except as otherwise permitted hereunder), Client
shall pay FIS, in addition to any other amounts owed, an amount equal to the Services Liquidated
Damages for Third Party Services, unless otherwise set forth in any Addendum. Client shall not be
entitled to a refund of any pre-paid amounts.

4. Use of Services. Client agrees that, except as otherwise permitted in the Agreement or
in writing by FIS, Client will use the Service only for its own internal business purposes to
service its bona fide Customers and will not sell or otherwise provide, directly or indirectly, any
of the Service, Third Party Service, Software or any portion thereof to any third party.
“Software” shall mean, individually or collectively, any software and/or interfaces as may
be licensed to Client by FIS or its affiliates pursuant to a Software License and Maintenance
Addendum to the Agreement. Client agrees that FIS may use all suggestions for improvement and
comments regarding the Service, Third Party Service, or Software that are furnished by Client to
FIS in connection with the Agreement, without accounting or reservation. Unless and except to the
extent that FIS has agreed to provide Client support services for Client, Client shall be
responsible for handling all inquiries of its Customers relating to the Service.

5. Materials. As a convenience, FIS may provide Client with sample forms, procedures,
scripts, marketing materials or other similar information (collectively, “Materials”).
Client shall have a license to use those Materials, if any, solely for its own internal use during
the term of the related Addendum and solely in a manner that is consistent with the Specifications.
Client’s license to use the Materials shall expire immediately upon termination of the Agreement or
the related Addendum. Client is responsible for its use of Materials and bears sole liability for
any such use.

6. Training. FIS shall provide Client with training in the use and implementation of
Services, Third Party Services, and/or Software as described in the Agreement. Unless otherwise
specifically set forth in an Addendum or its attachments, FIS shall provide training at FIS’ then
current rates, plus travel expenses (if applicable), on mutually agreeable dates and times. At
Client’s expense, FIS may offer training sessions on-line or at an FIS or Client location.

7. Fees and Other Charges.

     7.1 Client shall pay all fees and charges set forth in the pricing attachment(s) to the
Addendum(a). Fifty percent (50%) of the one-time fees shall be paid upon execution of each
Addendum, and the remaining fifty percent (50%) shall be paid upon the applicable Commencement
Date, unless otherwise set forth in an Addendum. Recurring fees shall be paid beginning on the
Commencement Date. FIS may increase any pass-through fees (e.g., postage, supplies, courier, data
transmission, and telecommunications expenses), outside of its control as its cost for such items
increases. FIS may adjust recurring fees annually by the Lesser of 2% or the percentage increase
in the U.S. CPI-U (U.S. City Average, All Items, 1982-84=100) from December to December of
two (2) preceding years. Such increase shall be effective on the first day of the month of
the anniversary of the Commencement Date of an Addendum. If the CPI-U is ever discontinued or
revised, FIS may in good faith select another government index as a substitute in order to obtain
substantially the same result. Fees, costs and expenses owed by Client are exclusive of charges for
non-standard materials, work, hardware, software or travel. Travel time, if required, will be
charged at FIS’ standard hourly rates, but will not exceed eight (8) hours per day per resource.

     7.2 FIS shall electronically debit the account specified in the Agreement (“Settlement
Account”) to settle: (i) any fees, charges or other amounts owed to FIS; (ii) transactions;
(iii) third party assessments and fines; and (iv) any payments or deposits received from or on
behalf of Customers. Client shall maintain sufficient funds in the Settlement Account to cover any
amounts owed to FIS, and is solely responsible for properly applying all credits and debits made to
the Settlement Account by FIS. Client shall notify FIS in writing of any change in Settlement
Account information within three (3) business days of occurrence. In the event FIS does not collect

18

 

amounts owed from the Settlement Account, Client must pay such amounts within thirty (30) days
of the invoice date.

     7.3 Over-billing errors shall only be corrected within the twelve (12) month period
immediately following occurrence. In the event of over-billing, FIS will correct the error on the
next invoice by credit to Client. If Client was under-billed, FIS will add the under—billed amount
to a future invoice. FIS may utilize any amounts owed to Client under the Agreement to pay
or reimburse FIS for amounts owed by Client.

     7.4 All charges and fees to be paid by Client under the Agreement (including the Addenda) are
exclusive of any applicable withholding, sales, use, excise, value added or other taxes. Any such
taxes for which FIS is responsible to collect from Client shall be billed by FIS and paid by
Client. Client agrees to reimburse or indemnify FIS for any taxes, penalties and interest assessed
by any taxing authority arising out of the Agreement. FIS shall pay and hold Client harmless for
any taxes on its property, income or payroll. Client agrees to hold FIS harmless for any sales,
use, excise, value added or other taxes assessed by a taxing authority arising out of the
Agreement. In the event of any assessment by a taxing authority, both parties agree to cooperate
with each other to resolve issues in order to minimize such assessment.

8. Intellectual Property.

     8.1 Client is not acquiring a copyright, patent or other intellectual property right in any
Service, Third Party Service, Software, Deliverable, Specifications or Material, or in any data,
modifications, customizations, enhancements, changes or work product related thereto.
“Deliverable” means any work product or other item (whether tangible or intangible) created
by FIS or provided by FIS to Client pursuant to the Services, Third Party Services, or Software,
and which may be described more particularly in an Addendum, SOW, or other document signed by the
parties.

     8.2 Any intellectual property rights that existed prior to the Effective Date of an Addendum
shall belong solely to the party owning them at that time. Neither party shall be entitled to any
copyright, trade secret or patent of the other party.

     8.3 Client shall not alter, obscure or revise any proprietary, restrictive, trademark or
copyright notice included with, affixed to, or displayed in, on or by a Service, Third Party
Service, Software, Deliverable or Specifications.

9. Confidentiality.

     9.1 Each party shall treat information received from the other that is designated as
“confidential” at or prior to disclosure (“Confidential Information”) as strictly
confidential. FIS designates all information relating to the Services, Third Party Services,
Software, Deliverables, Specifications and the terms of the Agreement as its Confidential
Information. Client designates non-public financial information that is personally identifiable to
a Customer (referenced in the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999 as “Non-public Personal
Information” or “NPI”) as its Confidential Information.

     9.2 Each party shall: (i) restrict disclosure of the other party’s Confidential Information to
employees and agents solely on a “need to know” basis in accordance with the Agreement; (ii) advise
its employees and agents of their confidentiality obligations; (iii) require agents to protect and
restrict the use of the other party’s Confidential Information; (iv) use the same degree of care to
protect the other party’s Confidential Information as it uses to safeguard its own Confidential
Information of similar importance; (v) establish procedural, physical and electronic safeguards,
designed to meet the objectives of the FFIEC Interagency Guidelines, to prevent the compromise or
unauthorized disclosure of Confidential Information and meet the requirements of Massachusetts data
privacy laws and regulations, including Mass. G.L. c.93H, 201 C.M.R. §17 (Standards for the
Protection of Personal Information of Residents of the Commonwealth) and any other Massachusetts
data privacy law or regulation which may subsequently be enacted and issued, all as they may be
modified from time to time; and (vi) notify the other party of any unauthorized possession or use
of its Confidential Information as soon as possible following notice of that unauthorized use or
possession. FIS shall promptly notify Client of any incident that has resulted or is likely to
result in the misuse of NPI, and shall comply with all Laws regarding NPI that are applicable to it
as a third party processor.

     9.3 Confidential Information shall remain the property of the party from or through whom it
was provided. Except for NPI, neither party shall be obligated to preserve the confidentiality of
any information that: (i) was

19

 

previously known; (ii) is a matter of public knowledge; (iii) was or is independently
developed; (iv) is released for disclosure with written consent; or (v) is received from a third
party to whom it was disclosed without restriction. Disclosure of Confidential Information shall be
permitted if it is: (a) required by law; (b) in connection with the tax treatment or tax structure
of the Agreement; or (c) in response to a valid order of a U.S. court or other governmental body,
provided the owner receives written notice and is afforded a reasonable opportunity to obtain a
protective order. Upon termination of an Addendum, each party shall destroy the other party’s
Confidential Information relating to that Addendum in a manner designed to preserve its
confidentiality, or, at the other party’s written request and expense, return it to the disclosing
party. Upon termination of the Agreement, each party shall destroy any remaining Confidential
Information of the other party in the same manner or, if so requested, return it to the disclosing
party at its expense.

10. Indemnification.

     10.1 Client shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless FIS and its officers, employees,
directors, agents, affiliates and shareholders, in their individual capacities or otherwise, from
and against any and all losses, claims, demands, penalties, actions, causes of action, suits,
obligations, liabilities, damages, delays, costs or expenses, including reasonable attorney’s fees
(collectively, “Losses”) asserted by a third party that result from, relate to, arise out of, or
are incurred in connection with: (i) Client’s gross negligence or willful misconduct resulting in
personal injury or property damage; (ii) Client’s misuse of a Service, Materials, Third Party
Service, Software, Specifications or Deliverables; (iii) inaccurate or incomplete Data provided by
or on behalf of Client; (iv) Client’s use of a Service, Third Party Service, Software and/or
Deliverable with computer programs or services owned, licensed or provided by someone other than
FIS; (v) Client’s failure to comply with applicable Laws; (vi) Client’s failure to comply with the
terms of any Third Party Service agreement; (vii) any claim of libel, violation of privacy rights,
unfair competition or infringement of patents, trademarks, copyrights or other intellectual
property caused by Client or a Customer; or (viii) any Customer claim, action or suit., except for
a Customer Claim arising out from FIS’s breach of its obligations under section 9.

     10.2 FIS shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Client, and its officers, employees,
directors, agents and shareholders, in their individual capacities or otherwise, from and against
any and all Losses asserted by a third party that result from, relate to, arise out of, or are
incurred in connection with: (i) FIS’ gross negligence or willful misconduct resulting in personal
injury or property damage; (ii) FIS’ failure to comply with laws applicable to FIS as a third party
provider of a Service; or (iii) a claim that a Service, Software, or Deliverable infringes a
registered U.S. patent, trademark, copyright.

     However, FIS shall not be liable for (and Client shall indemnify FIS against) any infringement
claim that results, in whole or in part, from: (a) Client’s use of a Service, Software or
Deliverable in a manner or for a purpose not specifically described in the Agreement (including the
Addenda) or Specifications; (b) Client’s use of a Service, Software or Deliverable with computer
programs, processes, hardware, systems, or services owned, licensed or provided by someone other
than FIS; or (c) Client’s products or services; or d) Client’s failure to implement corrections or
changes provided by FIS. If a claim of infringement of a registered U.S. patent, trademark or
copyright has been asserted, or in FIS’ opinion is about to be asserted, FIS may, at its option
either: (1) procure for Client the right to continue using the Service, Software or Deliverable;
(2) replace or modify the Service, Software, or Deliverable so that it becomes non-infringing; (3)
terminate the applicable Addendum or SOW and refund all pre-paid fees covering future use of the
Service, Software or Deliverable; or (4) defend the action on Client’s behalf and pay any
associated costs or damages.

     10.3 The obligation to provide indemnification under this section is contingent upon: (i) the
indemnified party promptly notifying the indemnifying party in writing of any claim; (ii) the
indemnifying party having sole control over the defense and settlement of the claim; (iii) the
indemnified party reasonably cooperating during defense and settlement efforts; and (iv) the claim
not arising, in whole or in part, out of the action or inaction of the indemnified party.

11. Disclaimer.

     11.1 Except as otherwise specifically agreed, under no circumstances shall FIS be liable for
any Losses caused, directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, by: (i) Client; (ii) a third party;
(iii) use of attachments, features, or devices not authorized by the Specifications; (iv) improper
or inadequate conditions at a site; (v) improper or incomplete installation not caused by FIS; (vi)
equipment changes, reconfigurations, upgrades or relocations; (vii) abuse, misuse, alteration or
use that is inconsistent with the terms of the Agreement or Specifications;

20

 

(viii)
incorrect or incomplete Data supplied by Client or its agents; (ix) software, hardware or
systems not supplied by FIS; (x) a Force Majeure Event; or (xi) a failure that is not directly
attributable to, or reasonably anticipated by, FIS or under FIS’ direct control. FIS shall make the
final determination as to the existence and cause of any Defect or Losses.

     11.2 EXCEPT AS SPECIFICALLY AGREED IN WRITING, ALL SERVICES, THIRD PARTY SERVICES, SOFTWARE,
DELIVERABLES, EQUIPMENT, AND MATERIALS ARE PROVIDED “AS IS”, AND ALL WARRANTIES, WHETHER STATUTORY,
EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR
ERROR-FREE OPERATION (EVEN IF CREATED BY THE INTERNATIONAL SALE OF GOODS CONVENTION), ARE
DISCLAIMED IN THEIR ENTIRETY.

12. Audits.

     12.1 Upon at least five (5) business days prior written notice, FIS, its representatives
and/or vendors may visit Client’s facilities, during normal business hours, for the purpose of: (i)
inspecting the location and use of Software, Deliverables and any third party software; and (ii)
auditing, monitoring and ensuring compliance with the terms of the Agreement. In addition, each
party shall have the right, upon reasonable prior written notice (and no more than once each year),
to visit the other party’s facilities during normal business hours for the purpose of determining
the adequacy of procedures for complying with its obligations relating to Confidential Information
under the Agreement.

     12.2 Notice for any audit must specify the scope of the information sought and the purpose of
the audit. All audits must be reasonable in scope and duration, and conducted at the expense of the
auditing party. Client and its representatives may be required to sign FIS’ nondisclosure and
confidentiality agreement in advance of performing any audit. FIS shall have the right to receive
and comment on any report prepared by or on behalf of Client prior to that report being published
or disseminated.

     12.3 In lieu of any audit relating to a Service, FIS may provide Client with a
certified copy of its most recent SAS-70, AUP, Security, Disaster Recovery, PCI, GLBA, NACHA, PIN,
TG3 or similar report regarding the Service, which shall be made available to Client upon
request at no additional charge.The provision of such report(s) shall satisfy all of FIS’
audit obligations to Client with respect to the corresponding Service.

     12.4 FIS shall permit governmental agencies that regulate Client in connection with a Service
performed by FIS to examine FIS’ books and records to the same extent as if that Service was being
performed by Client on its own premises.

13. Use of Names and Trademarks. FIS may use Client’s name and logo: (i) in a general
listing of users of its products and services; and (ii) as reasonably necessary to perform any
Services. Other than the foregoing: (a) neither party shall use the other party’s logos, trademarks
or stock exchange ticker symbol unless pre-approved in writing; and (b) the parties shall
consult with each other in preparing any press release or other similar communication that mentions
or implies a relationship between them.

14. Relationship. FIS is an independent contractor. Neither FIS nor any of its
representatives are an employee, partner or joint venturer of Client. FIS has the sole obligation
to supervise, manage and direct the performance of its obligations under the Agreement. FIS
reserves the right to determine who will be assigned to perform its obligations, and to make
replacements or reassignments as it deems appropriate. Each party shall be solely responsible for
payment of compensation to its respective personnel, and assumes full responsibility for payment of
all federal, state, local and foreign taxes or contributions imposed or required under unemployment
insurance, social security and income tax laws with respect to such personnel. Except as expressly
stated in the Agreement, neither party shall be an agent of the other, nor have any authority to
represent the other in any matter. To the extent that FIS engages a subcontractor, FIS shall remain
solely responsible for the performance of the subcontracted work. Client shall have no recourse,
and shall assert no claim, against any subcontractor of FIS.

15. Insurance. FIS shall use reasonable commercial efforts to maintain the following
minimum insurance coverage and limits: (i) statutory workers’ compensation in accordance with all
Federal, state, and local requirements; (ii) employer’s liability insurance with limits of coverage
of $1,000,000 (a) per accident, bodily injury (including death) by accident, (b) per bodily injury
(including death) by disease, and (c) per employee for bodily injury (including death) by disease
as required by the state in which the Services are performed;

21

 

(iii)
commercial general liability with an aggregate of $2,000,000, and $1,000,000 per occurrence for
bodily injury, property damage and personal injury; (iv) automobile liability insurance, including
FIS-owned, leased, and non-owned vehicles with a single limit of $1,000,000; (v) property
insurance, covering the hardware and other equipment used by FIS to provide the Services; (vi)
errors and omissions, including technology E&O coverage, with limits of $5,000,000 per claim; (vii)
umbrella (excess) liability insurance for the above-referenced comprehensive general liability and
employer’s liability coverage in the amount of $5,000,000 per occurrence; and (viii) crime
insurance, with coverage extended to include property of Client in the care, custody, or control of
FIS, or for which FIS is legally liable, with limits of $5,000,000 per claim.

16. Termination and Additional Remedies.

     16.1 In addition to any other remedies, either party may terminate the Agreement or an
Addendum on thirty (30) days advance written notice if the other party: (i) fails to cure a
material breach within thirty (30) days of receiving written notice to do so; (ii) is the subject
of a dissolution, reorganization, insolvency or bankruptcy action that is not dismissed within
forty-five (45) days of being filed; (iii) suffers the appointment of a receiver, conservator or
trustee; (iv) commits any act related to the Service with the intent to defraud the other party; or
(v) discontinues performance under the Agreement because of a binding order of a court or
regulatory body. If a breach cannot reasonably be cured within thirty (30) days, the non-breaching
party may not terminate the Agreement so long as the breaching party promptly commences work and
completes correction within ninety (90) days of receiving written notice of the breach.

     16.2 Due to the likelihood of irreparable injury, each party shall be entitled to seek an
injunction against the other for any breach of confidentiality, indemnification and intellectual
property obligations.

17. Export Restrictions and Unlawful Activity.

     17.1 FIS’ Confidential Information is subject to export controls under applicable law.
Accordingly, Client shall: (i) remain in compliance with all requirements associated with these
laws; (ii) cooperate fully with any audit related to these laws; and (iii) not utilize FIS’
Confidential Information in any country that is embargoed by the U.S. government. Client shall be
solely responsible for the importation of FIS’ Confidential Information, including obtaining any
approval or permit necessary for importation or use.

     17.2 Neither Client nor any of its directors, officers, agents, employees or other persons
associated with or acting on its behalf: (i) have received or will receive any unlawful
contribution, gift, entertainment or other payment from FIS; (ii) is a governmental entity; or
(iii) is in violation of, or will violate any applicable anti-corruption or anti-bribery law. FIS
shall have an irrevocable right to immediately terminate the Agreement or any other relationship
with Client if this subsection is breached.

18. Miscellaneous.

     18.1 Client shall not assign, subrogate or transfer any interest, obligation or right arising
out of the Agreement without prior written consent from FIS, which shall not be unreasonably
withheld. Any dissolution, consolidation, merger, transfer or reorganization of a majority of the
assets or stock of Client shall constitute an attempted assignment, and shall be void from its
inception. Subject to the foregoing, the terms of the Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to
the benefit of permitted successors and assigns.

     18.2 Any dispute, difference, controversy or claim arising out of or relating to the Agreement
shall be settled by binding arbitration before a single arbitrator in Jacksonville, Florida in
accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules (including Procedures for Large, Complex
Commercial Disputes) of the American Arbitration Association. Judgment on any resulting award may
be entered into by any court having jurisdiction over the parties or their respective property. The
arbitrator shall decide any issues submitted in accordance with the provisions and commercial
purposes of the Agreement, provided that all substantive questions of law shall be determined in
accordance with the state and Federal laws applicable in Florida, without regard to internal
principles relating to conflict of laws.The prevailing party in any dispute arising out of
the Agreement shall be entitled to, and the arbitrator shall have jurisdiction to award, the
recovery of reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses.

     18.3 All notices given in connection with the Agreement must be in writing and delivered via
overnight delivery. Notices shall be delivered to the address set forth in the Agreement. Notices
to FIS shall include a copy (which shall not constitute notice) to the General Counsel at the same
address. Telephone

22

 

communications between FIS and Client and/or Customers may be monitored or recorded without
further notice in order to maintain service quality.

     18.4 FIS shall not be liable for any loss, damage or failure due to causes beyond its control,
including strikes, riots, earthquakes, epidemics, terrorist actions, wars, fires, floods, weather,
power failure, telecommunications outage, acts of God or other failures, interruptions or errors
not directly caused by FIS (“Force Majeure Event”).

     18.5 Each party represents and warrants that it has full legal power and authority to enter
into and perform its obligations without any additional consent or approval.

     18.6 The Agreement (including these General Terms, all Addenda, and the pricing attachments)
together with any attachments thereto, constitute the entire agreement and understanding of the
parties with respect to its subject matter. All prior agreements, understandings and
representations regarding the same or similar services are superseded in their entirety. In the
event of a conflict, ambiguity or contradiction in documents, the documents will take precedence
over each other in accordance with the following ranking: (i) SOWs; (ii) exhibits and attachments;
(iii) Addenda; (iv) Specifications; and (v) these General Terms. The Agreement may only be modified
by a written document signed by both parties. The parties do not intend, nor shall there be, any
third party beneficiary rights.

     18.7 No waiver of any provisions of the Agreement and no consent to any default under the
Agreement shall be effective unless in writing and signed by the party against whom such waiver or
consent is claimed. No course of dealing or failure to strictly enforce any provision of the
Agreement shall be construed as a waiver of such provision for any party’s rights. Waiver by a
party of any default by the other party shall not be deemed a waiver of any other default.

     18.8 If any provision of the Agreement is unenforceable in any respect under law, such
enforceability shall not affect any other provision of the Agreement, and the Agreement shall be
construed as if such unenforceable provision had not been included to the extent necessary to bring
it within the requirements of that law. This Agreement shall not be construed more strongly against
either party, regardless of who is more responsible for its preparation. The headings that appear
in these General Terms are inserted for convenience only and do not limit or extend its scope.

     18.9 The Agreement shall remain in effect until the date on which the last Addendum in effect
is terminated, provided, however, that termination of the Agreement or an Addendum shall not impact
any right or obligation arising prior to termination, and in any event, Sections 2.9, 9, 10, and
11, as well as Subsection 18.2, of these General Terms shall survive termination of the Agreement.

SOURCEFIRE, INC.

NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTOR COMPENSATION POLICY

Non-employee directors of Sourcefire, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) shall be
entitled to the compensation set forth below for their service as a member of the Board of
Directors (the “Board”) of the Company. This policy supersedes all prior policies or provisions of
any equity plans concerning compensation of the Company’s non-employee directors, except that any
prior equity awards previously granted to a director remain valid. Unless otherwise defined
herein, capitalized terms shall have the meaning as provided in the Company’s 2007 Stock Incentive
Plan.

Cash Compensation

Cash Retainer for Board Service 

Commencing May 20, 2010, each non-employee director shall receive a cash retainer in the amount of
$30,000 per year (the “Board Retainer”).

Board Committee Member Cash Retainer

Commencing May 20, 2010, a non-employee director who serves as a member of the Audit, Compensation
or Nominating and Governance committee of the Board (each a “Committee Member”) shall receive a
supplemental cash retainer in the amounts as follows: (i) a member of the Audit Committee will
receive a cash retainer of $8,000 per year, (ii) a member of the Compensation Committee will
receive a cash retainer of $5,000 per year, and (iii) a member of the Nominating and Governance
Committee will receive a cash retainer of $4,000 per year (each, a “Committee Member Retainer”).

Cash Retainer for Chairman of the Board Service

Commencing May 20, 2010, a non-employee director who serves as the chairman of the Board (the
“Chairman of the Board”) shall receive an additional annual cash retainer in the amount of $22,500
per year (the “Chairman of the Board Retainer”).

Board Committee Chairman Cash Retainer

Commencing May 20, 2010, in lieu of a Committee Member Retainer, a non-employee director who serves
as the chairman of the Audit, Compensation or Nominating and Governance committee of the Board
(each a “Committee Chairman”) shall receive a supplemental cash retainer in the amounts as follows:
(i) the chairman of the Audit Committee will receive a cash retainer of $20,000 per year, (ii) the
chairman of the Compensation Committee will receive a cash retainer of $10,000 per year, and (iii)
the chairman of the Nominating and Governance Committee will receive a cash retainer of $7,500 per
year (each, a “Committee Chairman Retainer”).

1

 

Payment of Cash Retainers

The Board Retainer, Committee Member Retainer, Chairman of the Board Retainer and Committee
Chairman Retainer shall be payable quarterly, in four equal payments. The first payment shall be
payable upon the adjournment of the first meeting of the Board following the Company’s Annual
Meeting of Stockholders. The second, third and fourth payments shall be payable three (3), six (6)
months and nine (9) months thereafter, respectively, subject to the non-employee director’s
continued service to the Company as a non-employee director, Committee Member, Chairman of the
Board or Committee Chairman, as applicable, on such date.

Option to Receive Equity in Lieu of Cash Retainers

A non-employee director may elect to receive all or part of the Board Retainer, Committee Member
Retainer, Chairman of the Board Retainer or Committee Chairman Retainer in an amount of shares of
Company common stock equal to the applicable amount of the cash retainer divided by the Fair Market
Value of the Company’s common stock on the date such cash retainer becomes payable. Any such
election shall be made in writing to the Secretary of the Company no later than the date the cash
retainer becomes payable. Shares of common stock issued in lieu of a cash retainer shall be fully
vested on the date of grant.

Equity Compensation 

Initial Equity Award for New Directors 

Commencing May 20, 2010, on the date a new non-employee director becomes a member of the Board,
such non-employee director shall receive a restricted stock award (an “Initial Award”) in an amount
of shares of Company common stock equal to $200,000 divided by the Fair Market Value of the
Company’s common stock on such date, subject to the execution of a restricted stock award agreement
and the payment of a purchase price equal to $0.001 per share. The Initial Award is subject to
vesting over a period of three (3) years in equal annual installments commencing on the one (1)
year anniversary of the date the non-employee director becomes a member of the Board, subject to
the non-employee director’s continued service to the Company through the vesting dates. An employee
director who ceases to be an employee, but who remains a director, will not receive an Initial
Award.

Annual Equity Award for Continuing Board Members 

Commencing with the 2010 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, upon the adjournment of the Annual Meeting
of the Company’s stockholders each continuing non-employee director shall receive a restricted
stock award (an “Annual Award”) in an amount of shares of Company common stock equal to $100,000
divided by the Fair Market Value of the Company’s common stock on such date, subject to the
execution of a restricted stock award agreement and the payment of a purchase price equal to $0.001
per share;

2

 

provided, however, that no Annual Award shall be granted to a
non-employee director within 365 days of the date the non-employee director becomes a member of the
Board; and provided, further, that upon the one (1) year
anniversary of the date the non-employee director becomes a member of the Board, an Annual Award
shall be granted which shall be reduced on a pro rata basis to reflect that less than one (1) year
of service is expected of the director for the then-current year until the next Annual Meeting of
Stockholders.

Each Annual Award for continuing Board members shall vest in full on the earlier of (i) the one
year anniversary of the date of grant or (ii) the date immediately preceding the date of the next
Annual Meeting of the Company’s stockholders, subject to the non-employee director’s continued
service to the Company through the vesting date.

Provisions Applicable to All Non-Employee Director Equity Compensation Grants 

All grants made pursuant to this Non-Employee Director Compensation Policy shall be subject to the
terms and conditions of the Company’s 2007 Stock Incentive Plan, or any other equity compensation
plan approved by the Company’s stockholders, and the terms of the restricted stock agreement issued
thereunder. In the event of a Corporate Transaction or Change in Control (as such terms are defined
in the 2007 Stock Incentive Plan), one hundred percent (100%) of the Shares granted pursuant to
this Non-Employee Director Compensation Policy then outstanding shall become fully vested
immediately prior to the effective date of such Corporate Transaction or Change in Control.

Expense Reimbursement 

All non-employee directors shall be entitled to reimbursement from the Company for their reasonable
travel (including airfare and ground transportation), lodging and meal expenses incident to
meetings of the Board or committees thereof or in connection with other Board related business in
accordance with the Company’s corporate policies. The Company shall also reimburse directors for
attendance at director continuing education programs that are relevant to their service on the
Board and which attendance is pre-approved by the chairman of the Nominating and Governance
Committee or the Chairman of the Board. The Company shall make reimbursement to a non-employee
director within a reasonable amount of time following submission by the non-employee director of
reasonable written substantiation for the expenses.

Miscellaneous

In the event of any inconsistency between the terms of this Non-Employee Director Compensation
Policy and the terms of the Company’s 2007 Stock Incentive Plan under which Shares may be purchased
under an award granted thereunder, the terms of the 2007 Stock Incentive Plan shall govern.

In the event of any inconsistency between the terms of this Non-Employee Director Compensation
Policy and the terms of any restricted stock purchase agreement under

3

 

which Shares which may be
purchased, the terms of that restricted stock purchase agreement shall govern.

In the event of any inconsistency between the terms of the 2007 Stock Incentive Plan under which
Shares may be purchased under any award granted thereunder and the terms of any restricted stock
purchase agreement under which such Shares granted thereunder may be purchased, the terms of the
2007 Stock Incentive Plan under which the Shares were granted shall govern.

This Non-Employee Director Compensation Policy may be amended, altered or terminated at the
election of the Board in its absolute discretion, provided that no amendment, alteration or
termination of this Non-Employee Director Compensation Policy shall have retroactive affect or
impair the rights of any non-employee director under any award theretofore granted to that
director.
