ARTICLE XVII

AMENDMENT, TERMINATION AND SUSPENSION OF THE PLAN

     The formula provisions of the Plan relating to Participant and TSYS contributions as set forth
in Article III and Article IV, respectively, of the Plan may not be amended more than once every
six months, other than to comport with changes in the Internal Revenue Code, the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act, or the rules thereunder. With the exception of the restrictions set
forth in the previous sentence, TSYS reserves the right to amend the Plan at any time; however, no
amendment shall affect or diminish any Participant’s right to the benefit of contributions made by
such Participant or TSYS prior to the date of such amendment.

     TSYS reserves the right to terminate the Plan. In such event, there will be no further
Participant contributions and no further TSYS contributions, but the Agent will make purchases of
TSYS Common Stock out of available funds and will allocate such stock to the Stock Share Accounts
of the Participants in the usual manner. Upon termination of the Plan, distributions of TSYS
Common Stock and any cash held as a part of the Fund shall be governed by the provisions of Article
XIV hereof.

     TSYS reserves the right to suspend its contributions to the Plan if the Board of Directors of
TSYS determines that the financial condition of TSYS warrants such suspension. Such suspension
shall remain in effect until such time as TSYS’ Board of Directors determines that the financial
condition of TSYS warrants the restoration of the Plan to full active status. During the time TSYS
contributions are suspended, TSYS’ Board of Directors shall determine whether Participant
contributions are to be continued or suspended. If TSYS’ Board of Directors permits the
continuance of Participant contributions, each Participant may elect to continue or suspend
Participant contributions on his or her own behalf. If the Participant elects to continue to make
Participant

Page 11 of 12

 

contributions while TSYS contributions are suspended, TSYS shall be under no obligation at any
future date to make contributions with respect to such Participant’s contributions made during such
period of suspension. During any period of suspension under this Article XVII, the Plan shall
continue normal operation to the extent practical.

ARTICLE XVIII

SUSPENSION OR TERMINATION IF

STOCK PURCHASE IS PROHIBITED

     In addition to all rights to terminate or suspend the Plan otherwise reserved herein, it is
understood that the Plan may be suspended or terminated at any time or from time to time by TSYS’
Board of Directors if the Plan’s continuance would, for any reason, be prohibited under any federal
and state law even though such prohibition arises because of some act on the part of TSYS,
including, but not limited to, TSYS engaging in a distribution of securities. If the Plan is
suspended under this Article XVIII, no TSYS contributions or Participant contributions shall be
made and no TSYS Common Stock shall be purchased until the Plan is restored to an active status.
If the Plan is terminated pursuant to this Article XVIII, there shall be no further Participant
contributions and no further TSYS contributions and there shall be no additional purchases of TSYS
Common Stock. As soon as practical after the termination pursuant to this Article XVIII,
distribution of TSYS Common Stock and any cash held as a part of the Fund shall be governed by the
provisions of Article XIV hereof.
