ARTICLE I

 

ENGAGEMENT AND SERVICES

 

Section 1.1                                    Engagement.  SplitCo engages the Provider to provide to SplitCo, commencing on the date of the Split-Off (the “Split-Off Effective Date”), the services set forth in Section 1.2 (collectively, the “Services”), and the Provider accepts such engagement, subject to and upon the terms and conditions of this Agreement.  The parties acknowledge that certain of the Services will be performed by officers, employees or consultants of the Provider, who may also serve, from time to time, as officers, employees or consultants of other companies, including, without limitation, SplitCo, Liberty Broadband Corporation (“LBC”), CommerceHub, Inc. (“CH”), LIC and Liberty TripAdvisor Holdings, Inc. (“LTAH”).

 

Section 1.2                                    Services.

 

(a)                                 The Services will include the following, if and to the extent requested by SplitCo during the Term of this Agreement:

 

(i)                                     insurance administration and risk management services;

 

(ii)                                  technical and information technology assistance (including management information systems, computer, data storage network and telecommunications services), computers, office supplies, postage, courier service and other office services;

 

(iii)                               services performed by the Provider’s finance, accounting, payroll, treasury, cash management, legal, disclosure compliance, human resources, employee benefits, investor relations, tax and real estate management departments; and

 

(iv)                              such other services as the Provider may obtain from its officers, employees and consultants in the management of its own operations that SplitCo may from time to time request or require.

 

(b)                                 The Services are intended to be those services and functions that are appropriate for the operation and management of SplitCo as a publicly-traded company, and are not intended to be duplicative of services and functions for the operating Subsidiaries of SplitCo that are to be performed by officers, employees and consultants of those companies.

 

Section 1.3                                    Services Not to Interfere with the Provider’s Business.  SplitCo acknowledges and agrees that in providing Services hereunder the Provider will not be required to take any action that would disrupt, in any material respect, the orderly operation of the Provider’s business activities.

 

Section 1.4                                    Books and Records.   The Provider will maintain books and records, in reasonable detail in accordance with the Provider’s standard business practices, with respect to its provision of Services to SplitCo pursuant to this Agreement, including records supporting the determination of the Services Fee and other costs and expenses to SplitCo pursuant to Article II (collectively, “Supporting Records”). The Provider will give SplitCo and its duly authorized

representatives, agents, and attorneys reasonable access to all such Supporting Records during the Provider’s regular business hours upon SplitCo’s request after reasonable advance notice.

 

ARTICLE II

 

COMPENSATION

 

Section 2.1                                    Services Fee.   SplitCo agrees to pay, and the Provider agrees to accept, a fee (the “Services Fee”) equal to $[    ], payable in monthly installments in arrears as set forth in Section 2.3.  The initial Services Fee will be determined by the Provider, in consultation with LIC, on or prior to the Split-Off Effective Date. Provider and SplitCo will review and evaluate the Services Fee for reasonableness semiannually during the Term and will negotiate in good faith to reach agreement on any appropriate adjustments to the Services Fee. Based on such review and evaluation, Provider and SplitCo will agree on the appropriate effective date (which may be retroactive) of any such adjustment to the Services Fee.  For the avoidance of doubt, the determination of the Services Fee and any future adjustment thereto does not and will not include charges included under the Annual Allocation Expense (as such term is defined in the Facilities Sharing Agreement) payable by SplitCo under the Facilities Sharing Agreement.

 

Section 2.2                                    Cost Reimbursement.  In addition to (and without duplication of) the Services Fee payable pursuant to Section 2.1, SplitCo also will reimburse the Provider for all direct out-of-pocket costs, with no markup (“Out-of-Pocket Costs”), incurred by the Provider in performing the Services (e.g., postage and courier charges, travel, meals and entertainment expenses, and other miscellaneous expenses that are incurred by the Provider in the conduct of the Services).

 

Section 2.3                                    Payment Procedures.

 

(a)                                 SplitCo will pay the Provider, by wire or intrabank transfer of funds or in such other manner specified by the Provider to SplitCo, in arrears on or before the last day of each calendar month beginning with [    ], 2016, the Services Fee then in effect, in monthly installments.

 

(b)                                 Any reimbursement to be made by SplitCo to the Provider pursuant to Section 2.2 will be paid by SplitCo to the Provider within 15 days after receipt by SplitCo of an invoice therefor, by wire or intrabank transfer of funds or in such other manner specified by the Provider to SplitCo.  The Provider will invoice SplitCo monthly for reimbursable expenses incurred by the Provider on behalf of SplitCo during the preceding calendar month as contemplated in Section 2.2; provided, however, that the Provider may separately invoice SplitCo at any time for any single reimbursable expense incurred by the Provider on behalf of SplitCo in an amount equal to or greater than $25,000. Any invoice or statement pursuant to this Section 2.3(b) will be accompanied by supporting documentation in reasonable detail consistent with Provider’s own expense reimbursement policy.

 

(c)                                  Any payments not made when due under this Section 2.3 will bear interest at the rate of 1.5% per month on the outstanding amount from and including the due date to but excluding the date paid.

Section 2.4                                    Survival.  The terms and conditions of this Article II will survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement.

 

ARTICLE III

 

TERM

 

Section 3.1                                    Term Generally.  The term of this Agreement will commence on the Split-Off Effective Date and will continue until the third anniversary of the Split-Off Effective Date (the “Term”).  This Agreement is subject to termination prior to the end of the Term in accordance with Section 3.3.

 

Section 3.2                                    Discontinuance of Select Services.  At any time during the Term, on not less than 30 days’ prior notice by SplitCo to the Provider, SplitCo may elect to discontinue obtaining any of the Services from the Provider.  In such event, the Provider’s obligation to provide Services that have been discontinued pursuant to this Section 3.2, and SplitCo’s obligation to compensate the Provider for such Services, will cease as of the end of such 30-day period (or such later date as may be specified in the notice), and this Agreement will remain in effect for the remainder of the Term with respect to those Services that have not been so discontinued.  The Provider and SplitCo will promptly evaluate the Services Fee for reasonableness following the discontinuance of any Services and will negotiate in good faith to reach agreement on any appropriate adjustment to the Services Fee.  Each party will remain liable to the other for any required payment or performance accrued prior to the effective date of discontinuance of any Service.

 

Section 3.3                                    Termination.  This Agreement will be terminated prior to the expiration of the Term in the following events:

 

(a)                                 at any time upon at least 30 days’ prior written notice by SplitCo to the Provider;

 

(b)                                 immediately upon written notice (or at any later time specified in such notice) by the Provider to SplitCo if a Change in Control or Bankruptcy Event (both as hereinafter defined) occurs with respect to SplitCo; or

 

(c)                                  immediately upon written notice (or at any later time specified in such notice) by SplitCo to the Provider if a Change in Control or Bankruptcy Event occurs with respect to the Provider.

 

For purposes of this Section 3.3, a “Change in Control” will be deemed to have occurred with respect to a party if a merger, consolidation, binding share exchange, acquisition, or similar transaction (each, a “Transaction”), or series of related Transactions, involving such party occurs as a result of which the voting power of all voting securities of such party outstanding immediately prior thereto represent (either by remaining outstanding or being converted into voting securities of the surviving entity) less than 75% of the voting power of such party or the surviving entity of the Transaction outstanding immediately after such Transaction (or if such party or the surviving entity after giving effect to such Transaction is a Subsidiary of the issuer of securities in such Transaction, then the voting power of all voting securities of such party

 

4

 

outstanding immediately prior to such Transaction represent (by being converted into voting securities of such issuer) less than 75% of the voting power of the issuer outstanding immediately after such Transaction).

 

For purposes of this Section 3.3, a “Bankruptcy Event” will be deemed to have occurred with respect to a party upon such party’s insolvency, general assignment for the benefit of creditors, such party’s voluntary commencement of any case, proceeding, or other action seeking reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, liquidation, dissolution, or consolidation of such party’s debts under any law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, or reorganization, or relief of debtors, or seeking appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian, or other similar official for such party or for all or any substantial part of such party’s assets (each, a “Bankruptcy Proceeding”), or the involuntary filing against SplitCo or the Provider, as applicable, of any Bankruptcy Proceeding that is not stayed within 60 days after such filing.

 

Each party will remain liable to the other for any required payment accrued prior to the termination of this Agreement.

(a)                                 The Provider will make available to SplitCo, on a non-exclusive basis, the appropriate personnel (the “Personnel”) to perform the Services.  The personnel made available to perform selected Services are expected to be substantially the same personnel who provide similar services in connection with the management and administration of the business and operations of the Provider.

 

(b)                                 SplitCo acknowledges that:

 

(i)                                     certain of the Personnel also will be performing services for the Provider, LIC, LTAH, LBC, CH and/or other companies, from time to time, including certain Subsidiaries and Affiliates of each of the foregoing, in each case, while also potentially performing services directly for SplitCo and certain of its Subsidiaries and Affiliates under a direct employment, consultancy or other service relationship between such Person and SplitCo and irrespective of this Agreement; and

 

(ii)                                  the Provider may elect, in its discretion, to utilize independent contractors rather than employees of the Provider to perform Services from time to time, and such independent contractors will be deemed included within the definition of “Personnel” for all purposes of this Agreement.

 

Section 4.2                                    Provider as Payor.  The parties acknowledge and agree that the Provider, and not SplitCo, will be solely responsible for the payment of salaries, wages, benefits (including health insurance, retirement, and other similar benefits, if any) and other compensation applicable to all Personnel; provided, however, that (a) SplitCo is responsible for the payment of the Services Fee in accordance with Section 2.1, and (b) SplitCo is responsible for the payment

 

5

 

of (i) all compensation based on, comprised of or related to the equity securities of SplitCo and (ii) any bonus amounts payable to any Personnel who holds the office of Vice President or higher of SplitCo (each, a “SplitCo Officer”) with respect to services performed for the benefit of SplitCo (together with (i), “Excluded Compensation”).  The parties acknowledge that Personnel may provide services directly to SplitCo in consideration for the receipt of Excluded Compensation pursuant to such Personnel’s separate employment, consultancy or other service relationship with SplitCo.  All Personnel will be subject to the personnel policies of the Provider and will be eligible to participate in the Provider’s employee benefit plans to the same extent as similarly situated employees of the Provider performing services in connection with the Provider’s business.  Except as otherwise provided by the Tax Sharing Agreement, (i) the Provider will be responsible for the payment of all federal, state, and local withholding taxes on the compensation of all Personnel (other than Excluded Compensation) and other such employment related taxes as are required by law, and (ii) SplitCo will be responsible for the payment of all federal, state, and local withholding taxes on Excluded Compensation paid to any Personnel by SplitCo and other such employment related taxes as are required by law.  Each of SplitCo and Provider will cooperate with the other to facilitate the other’s compliance with applicable federal, state, and local laws, rules, regulations, and ordinances applicable to the employment or engagement of all Personnel by either party.

 

Section 4.3                                    Additional Employee Provisions.  The Provider will have the right to terminate its employment of any Personnel at any time.

INDEMNIFICATION

 

Section 6.1                                    Indemnification by the Provider.  The Provider will indemnify, defend, and hold harmless SplitCo and each of its Subsidiaries receiving Services hereunder, officers, directors, employees and agents, successors and assigns (collectively, the “SplitCo Indemnitees”), from and against any and all Actions, judgments, Liabilities, losses, costs, damages, or expenses, including reasonable counsel fees, disbursements, and court costs (collectively, “Losses”), that any SplitCo Indemnitee may suffer arising from or out of, or relating to, (a) any material breach by the Provider of its obligations under this Agreement, or (b) the gross negligence, willful misconduct, fraud, or bad faith of the Provider in connection with the performance of any provision of this Agreement except to the extent such Losses (i) are fully covered by insurance maintained by SplitCo or such other SplitCo Indemnitee or (ii) are payable by SplitCo pursuant to Section 7.11.

 

Section 6.2                                    Indemnification by SplitCo.  SplitCo will indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the Provider and its Subsidiaries, officers, directors, employees and agents, successors and assigns (collectively, the “Provider Indemnitees”), from and against any and all Losses that any Provider Indemnitee may suffer arising from or out of, or relating to (a) any material breach by SplitCo of its obligations under this Agreement, or (b) any acts or omissions of the Provider in providing the Services pursuant to this Agreement (except to the extent such Losses (i) arise from or relate to any material breach by the Provider of its obligations under this Agreement, (ii) are attributable to the gross negligence, willful misconduct, fraud, or bad faith of the Provider or any other Provider Indemnitee seeking indemnification under this Section 6.2, (iii) are fully covered by insurance maintained by the Provider or such other Provider Indemnitee, or (iv) are payable by the Provider pursuant to Section 7.11).

 

Section 6.3                                    Indemnification Procedures.

 

(a)                                 (i)                                     In connection with any indemnification provided for in Section 6.1 or Section 6.2, the party seeking indemnification (the “Indemnitee”) will give the party from which indemnification is sought (the “Indemnitor”) prompt notice whenever it comes to the attention of the Indemnitee that the Indemnitee has suffered or incurred, or may suffer or incur, any Losses for which it is entitled to indemnification under Section 6.1 or Section 6.2, and, if and when known, the facts constituting the basis for such claim and the projected amount of such Losses (which shall not be conclusive as to the amount of such Losses), in each case in reasonable detail. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the case of any Action commenced by

 

7

 

a third party for which indemnification is being sought (a “Third-Party Claim”), such notice will be given no later than ten business days following receipt by the Indemnitee of written notice of such Third-Party Claim.  Failure by any Indemnitee to so notify the Indemnitor will not affect the rights of such Indemnitee hereunder except to the extent that such failure has a material prejudicial effect on the defenses or other rights available to the Indemnitor with respect to such Third-Party Claim.  The Indemnitee will deliver to the Indemnitor as promptly as practicable, and in any event within five business days after Indemnitee’s receipt, copies of all notices, court papers and other documents received by the Indemnitee relating to any Third-Party Claim.

 

(ii)                                  After receipt of a notice pursuant to Section 6.3(a)(i) with respect to any Third-Party Claim, the Indemnitor will be entitled, if it so elects, to take control of the defense and investigation with respect to such Third-Party Claim and to employ and engage attorneys reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnitee to handle and defend such claim, at the Indemnitor’s cost, risk and expense, upon written notice to the Indemnitee of such election, which notice acknowledges the Indemnitor’s obligation to provide indemnification under this Agreement with respect to any Losses arising out of or relating to such Third-Party Claim. The Indemnitor will not settle any Third-Party Claim that is the subject of indemnification without the written consent of the Indemnitee, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided, however, that, after reasonable notice, the Indemnitor may settle a claim without the Indemnitee’s consent if such settlement (A) makes no admission or acknowledgment of Liability or culpability with respect to the Indemnitee, (B) includes a complete release of the Indemnitee and (C) does not seek any relief against the Indemnitee other than the payment of money damages to be borne by the Indemnitor. The Indemnitee will cooperate in all reasonable respects with the Indemnitor and its attorneys in the investigation, trial and defense of any lawsuit or action with respect to such claim and any appeal arising therefrom (including the filing in the Indemnitee’s name of appropriate cross-claims and counterclaims).  The Indemnitee may, at its own cost, participate in any investigation, trial and defense of any Third-Party Claim controlled by the Indemnitor and any appeal arising therefrom, including participating in the process with respect to the potential settlement or compromise thereof.  If the Indemnitee has been advised by its counsel that there may be one or more legal defenses available to the Indemnitee that conflict with those available to, or that are not available to, the Indemnitor (“Separate Legal Defenses”), or that there may be actual or potential differing or conflicting interests between the Indemnitor and the Indemnitee in the conduct of the defense of such Third-Party Claim, the Indemnitee will have the right, at the expense of the Indemnitor, to engage separate counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnitor to handle and defend such Third-Party Claim, provided, that, if such Third-Party Claim can be reasonably separated between those portion(s) for which Separate Legal Defenses are available (“Separable Claims”) and those for which no Separate Legal Defenses are available, the Indemnitee will instead have the right, at the expense of the Indemnitor, to engage separate counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnitor to handle and defend the Separable Claims, and the Indemnitor will not have the right to control the defense or investigation of such Third-Party Claim or such Separable Claims, as the case may be (and, in which latter case, the Indemnitor will have the right to control the defense or investigation of the remaining portion(s) of such Third-Party Claim).

 

(iii)                               If, after receipt of a notice pursuant to Section 6.3(a)(i) with respect to any Third-Party Claim as to which indemnification is available hereunder, the Indemnitor does not undertake to defend the Indemnitee against such Third-Party Claim, whether by not giving the

 

8

 

Indemnitee timely notice of its election to so defend or otherwise, the Indemnitee may, but will have no obligation to, assume its own defense, at the expense of the Indemnitor (including attorneys fees and costs), it being understood that the Indemnitee’s right to indemnification for such Third-Party Claim shall not be adversely affected by its assuming the defense of such Third-Party Claim.  The Indemnitor will be bound by the result obtained with respect thereto by the Indemnitee; provided, that the Indemnitee may not settle any lawsuit or action with respect to which the Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification hereunder without the consent of the Indemnitor, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided further, that such consent shall not be required if (i) the Indemnitor had the right under this Section 6.3 to undertake control of the defense of such Third-Party Claim and, after notice, failed to do so within thirty days of receipt of such notice (or such lesser period as may be required by court proceedings in the event of a litigated matter), or (ii) (x) the Indemnitor does not have the right to control the defense of the entirety of such Third-Party Claim pursuant to Section 6.3(a)(ii) or (y) the Indemnitor does not have the right to control the defense of any Separable Claim pursuant to Section 6.3(a)(ii) (in which case such settlement may only apply to such Separable Claims), the Indemnitee provides reasonable notice to Indemnitor of the settlement, and such settlement (A) makes no admission or acknowledgment of Liability or culpability with respect to the Indemnitor, (B) does not seek any relief against the Indemnitor and (C) does not seek any relief against the Indemnitee for which the Indemnitor is responsible other than the payment of money damages.

 

(b)                                 In no event will the Indemnitor be liable to any Indemnitee for any special, consequential, indirect, collateral, incidental or punitive damages, however caused and on any theory of liability arising in any way out of this Agreement, whether or not such Indemnitor was advised of the possibility of any such damages;  provided, that the foregoing limitations shall not limit a party’s indemnification obligations for any Losses incurred by an Indemnitee as a result of the assertion of a Third-Party Claim.

 

(c)                                  The Indemnitor and the Indemnitee shall use commercially reasonable efforts to avoid production of Confidential Information, and to cause all communications among employees, counsel and others representing any party with respect to a Third-Party Claim to be made so as to preserve any applicable attorney-client or work-product privilege.

 

(d)                                 The Indemnitor shall pay all amounts payable pursuant to this Section 6.3 by wire transfer of immediately available funds, promptly following receipt from an Indemnitee of a bill, together with all accompanying reasonably detailed backup documentation, for any Losses that are the subject of indemnification hereunder, unless the Indemnitor in good faith disputes the amount of such Losses or whether such Losses are covered by the Indemnitor’s indemnification obligation in which event the Indemnitor shall promptly so notify the Indemnitee. In any event, the Indemnitor shall pay to the Indemnitee, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, the amount of any Losses for which it is liable hereunder no later than three (3) days following any final determination of the amount of such Losses and the Indemnitor’s liability therefor. A “final determination” shall exist when (a) the parties to the dispute have reached an agreement in writing or (b) a court of competent jurisdiction shall have entered a final and non-appealable order or judgment.

 

9

 

(e)                                  If the indemnification provided for in this Section 6.3 shall, for any reason, be unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an Indemnitee in respect of any Losses for which it is entitled to indemnification hereunder, then the Indemnitor shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnitee as a result of such Losses, in such proportion as shall be appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by and the relative fault of the Indemnitor on the one hand and the Indemnitee on the other hand with respect to the matter giving rise to such Losses.

This Agreement, the Facilities Sharing Agreement, the Tax Sharing Agreement and the Reorganization Agreement constitute the entire agreement among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, oral and written, among the parties hereto with respect to such subject matter. It is the intention of the parties hereto that the provisions of this Agreement will be enforced to the fullest extent permissible under all applicable laws and public policies, but that the unenforceability of any provision hereof (or the modification of any provision hereof to conform with such laws or public policies, as provided in the next sentence) will not render unenforceable or impair the remainder of this Agreement. Accordingly, if any provision is determined to be invalid or unenforceable either in whole or in part, this Agreement will be deemed amended to delete or modify, as necessary, the invalid or unenforceable provisions and to alter the balance of this Agreement in order to render the same valid and enforceable, consistent (to the fullest extent possible) with the intent and purposes hereof.  If the provisions of this Agreement conflict with any provisions of the Facilities Sharing Agreement, the provisions of this Agreement shall control.

Attention: Legal Department

 

Re:                             Facilities Sharing Agreement.

 

Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

Liberty Interactive Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“LIC”), has, or will shortly, effect the split-off (the “Split-off”) of Liberty Expedia Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“SplitCo”), by means of the redemption of a portion of the issued and outstanding shares of LIC’s Liberty Ventures common stock in exchange for all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of SplitCo.  To that end, LIC and SplitCo have entered into a Reorganization Agreement, dated as of [  ], 2016 (the “Reorganization Agreement”), pursuant to which various assets and businesses of LIC and its subsidiaries have been, or will be, transferred to SplitCo and its subsidiaries.

 

As you are aware, Liberty Property Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“LPH”), which is the owner of 12300 Liberty Boulevard, Englewood, Colorado (the “Premises”) and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Liberty Media Corporation (“Liberty Media” or “Provider”), permits LIC to occupy and use certain office and parking facilities within the Premises for a fee.  In connection with the Split-off, LIC has requested that Liberty Media permit SplitCo directly to occupy and use a portion of such office and parking facilities within the Premises following the Split-off, and SplitCo desires to so occupy and use such facilities.  Liberty Media and LPH are amenable to such a sharing arrangement, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement.

 

As you are also aware, Liberty Media provides services to LIC pursuant to an existing services agreement, and LIC has requested that Liberty Media provide similar services directly to SplitCo following the Split-off.  Accordingly, Liberty Media and SplitCo have entered into a services agreement, dated [  ], 2016 (the “Services Agreement”), pursuant to which Liberty Media will provide to SplitCo the services described therein on the terms set forth therein from and after the date of the Split-off (the “Split-off Effective Date”).

 

 

Based on the premises and the mutual agreements of the parties, and for other good and valuable consideration the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, SplitCo, LPH and Liberty Media hereby agree as follows:

 

Section 1. Use of Facilities. The shared facilities consist of 40,115 square feet, in the aggregate, of fully-furnished executive offices, working stations for secretarial and other support staff and common areas, including the main reception area, conference facilities, hallways, stairways, restrooms, kitchenettes, the employee cafeteria, the fitness area and parking facilities (collectively, the “Shared Facilities Space”), located within the Premises.

 

Section 2. Sharing Fee. SplitCo will pay to LPH a monthly fee (the “Sharing Fee”), by wire or intrabank transfer of funds or in such other manner as may be agreed upon by the parties, in arrears on or before the last day of each calendar month beginning with the first full calendar month following the date of the Split-off, equal to one-twelfth of the sum of (A) the product of (i) an agreed-upon Facilities Percentage (as defined below) multiplied by (ii) the product of the total square footage of space within the Shared Facilities Space and the Square Foot Rate (as defined below), plus (B) the Annual Allocation Expense (as defined below). For this purpose, SplitCo and LPH agree that, until [  ], the fair market “fully loaded” rental rate per square foot, including parking facilities, for space comparable to the Shared Facilities Space in Englewood, Colorado will be $[  ] per square foot (the “Square Foot Rate”). The Square Foot Rate will be automatically increased on the first day of the first month of each calendar year thereafter in an amount equal to the percentage increase in the U.S. Department of Labor Consumer Price Index All Items, All Urban Consumers Denver-Boulder-Greeley for the same period. The Square Foot Rate does not include charges for expenses related to the use of the Shared Facilities Space, including, but not limited to, utilities, security and janitorial services, office equipment rent, office supplies, use of the cafeteria facilities onsite at the Shared Facilities Space, maintenance and repairs, telephone, satellite, video and information technology (including network maintenance and data storage, computer and telephone support and maintenance, and management and information systems (servers, hardware and related software)) (the “Allocations”). With respect to each calendar year during the term of this facilities sharing agreement (this “Agreement”), SplitCo shall reimburse LPH in an amount (the “Annual Allocation Expense”) equal to the product of (x) the aggregate amount of the estimated Allocations for such year, as determined in good faith by LPH and notified to SplitCo prior to the commencement of such calendar year, and (y) the Facilities Percentage applicable to such calendar year; provided that, if the Facilities Percentage changes during any calendar year, the Annual Allocation Expense applicable to such calendar year shall be adjusted accordingly.

 

The “Facilities Percentage” is the percentage of the Shared Facilities Space that Provider estimates, in good faith, will be used to provide services to SplitCo under the Services Agreement.  The initial Facilities Percentage will be determined by the Provider, in consultation with LIC, on or prior to the Split-off Effective Date, and Provider and SplitCo will review and evaluate the Facilities Percentage for reasonableness semiannually during the Term and will negotiate in good faith to reach agreement on any appropriate adjustments to the Facilities Percentage. Based on such review and evaluation, Provider and SplitCo will agree on the appropriate effective date (which may be retroactive) of any such adjustment to the Facilities Percentage.

 

2

 

Provider and SplitCo will also review and evaluate the Annual Allocation Expense for reasonableness semi-annually during the term of this Agreement, and will negotiate in good faith to reach agreement on any appropriate adjustments to the Annual Allocation Expense based on such review and evaluation.

 

The terms and conditions of this Section 2 will survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement.

 

Section 3.  Term.

 

(i)                                     The term of this Agreement will commence on the Split-off Effective Date and will continue until the third anniversary of the Split-off Effective Date (the “Term”).  This Agreement is subject to termination prior to the end of the Term in accordance with Section 3(ii).

 

(ii)                                  This Agreement will be terminated prior to the expiration of the Term in the following events:

 

·                  by SplitCo or LPH at any time upon at least 30 days’ prior written notice to LPH or SplitCo, respectively (provided the Services Agreement is not then still in effect);

·                  concurrently with the termination of the Services Agreement;

·                  immediately upon written notice (or any time specified in such notice) by LPH to SplitCo if SplitCo shall default in the performance of any of its material obligations hereunder and such default shall remain unremedied for a period of 30 days after written notice thereof is given by LPH to SplitCo;

·                  immediately upon written notice (or at any time specified in such notice) by LPH to SplitCo if a Change in Control or Bankruptcy Event occurs with respect to SplitCo; or

·                  immediately upon written notice (or at any time specified in such notice) by SplitCo to LPH if a Change in Control or Bankruptcy Event occurs with respect to Liberty Media.

 

For purposes of this Section 3(ii), a “Change in Control” will have the meaning ascribed thereto in the Services Agreement.

 

For purposes of this Section 3(ii), a “Bankruptcy Event” will have the meaning ascribed thereto in the Services Agreement.

 

Section 4.   Miscellaneous.

 

(i)  Entire Agreement; Severability. This Agreement, the Services Agreement, the Reorganization Agreement and the Tax Sharing Agreement between LIC and SplitCo, dated as of [  ], 2016, constitute the entire agreement among the parties hereto or thereto, as applicable with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, oral and written, among the parties hereto with respect to such subject matter. It is the intention of the parties hereto that the provisions of this Agreement will be enforced to the fullest extent permissible under all applicable laws and public policies, but that the

unenforceability of any provision hereof (or the modification of any provision hereof to conform with such laws or public policies, as provided in the next sentence) will not render unenforceable or impair the remainder of this Agreement.

If the cost of any service to be provided to SplitCo under the Services Agreement is included in the Annual Allocation Expense payable hereunder, then the cost of such service shall not also be payable by SplitCo under the Services Agreement.
