TERMINATION AND COOPERATION AGREEMENT

 

THIS TERMINATION AND COOPERATION AGREEMENT, dated as of September 30, 2014 (this “Agreement”), is by and among Equity Commonwealth, a Maryland real estate investment trust (the “Company”), Reit Management & Research LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“RMR”), and RMR Australia Asset Management Pty Limited, in its own capacity and its capacity as trustee of CWH Australia Trust (formerly MacarthurCook Industrial Property Fund) (“RMR Australia”, and together with RMR, “Manager”).  Each of the Company and Manager is referred to herein as a “Party” and collectively as the “Parties”.

 

A.                                    The Company has historically been externally managed by Manager, and the Company and Manager are parties to the Management Agreements (hereinafter defined).

 

B.                                    The Company has determined that it is in the best interests of its shareholders to internalize management of the Company and to enter into this Agreement to provide for an effective transition of management from Manager to the Company.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of and reliance upon the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties hereto agree as follows:

 

(1)                                 Amendments to Management Agreements.  The Company and Manager hereby amend each of the Management Agreements as necessary to incorporate the terms and conditions of this Section 1.

 

(a)         Termination of Management Services.

 

                        (i)                                     Subject to Section 1(a)(ii) hereof, the Business Management Agreement and Property Management Agreement (but not the obligations of Manager to provide Transition Services & Cooperation pursuant to Section 2 hereof) shall terminate effective at 11:59 p.m. EDT on September 30, 2014 (the “Management Services Termination Date”).

 

                        (ii)                                  Subject to the provisions of this paragraph set forth below, RMR Australia shall remain in place as trustee of CWH Australia Trust and the Australian Management Agreement shall remain in full force and effect (subject to the express terms and conditions of this Agreement).  In the event the Company determines (in its sole discretion) to market for sale any or all of the Properties located in Australia, then, at the Company’s request and direction, RMR Australia shall assist with the marketing and sale thereof.  Upon written notice by the Company to Manager, Manager shall promptly assist with and facilitate the removal of RMR Australia as trustee of CWH Australia Trust and cooperate with the appointment of a replacement trustee of CWH Australia Trust.  Anything in this Agreement or the Management Agreements notwithstanding, the obligation of Manager to provide services (including Transition Services & Cooperation) under the Australian Management Agreement shall be extended beyond the Management Services Termination Date until the earliest of (i) the sale of all of the Properties located in Australia, (ii) the termination date set forth in a notice of termination of the Australian Management Agreement given by the Company (or its agent) to Manager at least sixty (60) days before such termination date, and (iii) December 31, 2015.

 

 

(b)         Internal Audit Fees under Business Management Agreement.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in the Management Agreements (including, without limitation, Section 15 of the Business Management Agreement), from and after the date hereof the Company shall not be required to reimburse Manager for expenses in connection with internal audit services and Manager shall not be obligated to provide any such services; provided, however, that, if the Company requests that any internal audit services, support or cooperation be provided in connection with any other services provided by Manager under this Agreement, including without limitation, Section 2(b)(iv) hereof, Manager shall, to the extent practicable, provide the same and the Company shall reimburse Manager for internal audit services as provided in Section 15 of the Business Management Agreement.

 

(c)          Fees under Australian Management Agreement.  After the Management Services Termination Date, no further Business Management Fee, Property Management Fee, Construction Supervision Fee (each as defined in the Australian Management Agreement) or other fee, reimbursement or other amount of any kind shall be payable to Manager under the Australian Management Agreement; except, however, if the term of the Australian Management Agreement is extended beyond February 28, 2015, (x) a fee in the amount of $60,000 per month, payable in arrears on the date that is ten (10) days after the last day of the applicable month (prorated for partial months), shall be payable for the period of time from and after March 1, 2015 until termination of the Australian Management Agreement (which fee is intended to cover the costs of maintaining the CWH Australia Trust and the customary, historical, third-party, out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by RMR Australia in connection with its duties under the Australian Management Agreement), and (y) the Company shall reimburse RMR Australia for any additional third-party, out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by RMR Australia to the extent approved in advance in writing by the Company.

 

(d)         Payment of Fees.  Notwithstanding anything contained in the Management Agreements to the contrary, all payments made under the Management Agreements or this Agreement after the date of this Agreement shall be made in cash.  Manager shall not have the right to offset any fees against funds of the Company or its subsidiaries.

 

(e)          Reduction of Duties.  At any time, the Company shall have the right, by written notice to Manager, to reduce the duties of, and services to be provided by, Manager pursuant to the Australian Management Agreement or this Agreement; provided, however, that no such reduction in the duties of Manager shall reduce the fees payable to Manager under this Agreement or the Australian Management Agreement (except as expressly provided herein).

 

(f)           Capital Projects.  No capital projects shall be commenced by Manager at any Property located in Australia unless Manager obtains the Company’s prior written approval thereof.  No further Construction Supervision Fee (as defined in the Property Management Agreement and the Australian Management Agreement) shall be payable by the Company to Manager in connection with any previous capital projects, except for amounts accrued and unpaid as of the date hereof, provided, however, that the Company shall only be required to pay Manager such accrued and unpaid

Construction Supervision Fees to the extent Manager delivers to the Company a written invoice therefor within forty-five (45) days following the date hereof.

 

(g)          Disclosure of Other Agreements.  Manager hereby represents and warrants to the Company that the Business Management Agreement, the Property Management Agreement and the Australian Management Agreement constitute all agreements, arrangements and understandings between the Company and any of its subsidiaries, on one hand, and Manager or any affiliate thereof, on the other hand, in effect immediately following the execution of this Agreement pursuant to which the Company or any of its subsidiaries is required to pay fees to Manager or its affiliates.

 

(h)         Certain Representations and Warranties.  Manager hereby represents and warrants to the Company that Manager has complied in all material respects with the following provisions of the Management Agreements: (A) Sections 2(d) and 2(e) of the Business Management Agreement; (B) Section 3(n) of the Property Management Agreement; and (C) Sections 4(e) and 5(l) of the Australian Management Agreement.

 

(2)                                 Transition Services & Cooperation.

 

(a)         General.  From and after the date hereof until February 28, 2015, Manager shall use best efforts to continue to assist the Company in the transition of the Company’s management from Manager to the Company’s management team and to transition the operations of the Company from Manager to employees or agents of the Company in compliance with all applicable laws, rules and regulations and agreements to which the Company (or its subsidiaries) is a party (the “Transition”).  The actions to be performed by Manager in connection with the Transition are referred to herein as the “Transition Services & Cooperation”.  Manager and the Company each shall dedicate sufficient and appropriate resources to the performance of the Transition Services & Cooperation, and Manager shall use best efforts to engage in all relevant activities in a prompt and timely manner that is responsive to the Company’s or its agent’s reasonable requests.  For the avoidance of doubt, the Parties acknowledge and agree that, subject to the terms of this Agreement, Manager shall, at the direction, and supervision of the Company, take all actions reasonably requested to effectuate a successful Transition, regardless of whether the actions required for a successful Transition are expressly stated in this Section 2.  To the extent Manager is aware of additional actions that would be necessary to effectuate a successful Transition that the Company has not requested, Manager shall advise the Company thereof.

 

(b)         Certain Specified Duties of Manager.  From and after the date hereof until February 28, 2015, without limiting the foregoing, the Transition Services & Cooperation shall include the following:

 

                        (i)                                     Company Funds.  From and after the Management Services Termination Date, Manager shall (A) promptly provide to the Company a final reconciliation of the disbursement account from which the Company’s expenses have been paid by Manager, and (B) immediately pay to the Company, without deduction or setoff, all funds held or received by Manager on behalf of the Company; it being understood and agreed, however, that, except as set forth in Section 1(c) hereof, the Company shall remain liable to reimburse Manager for costs and expenses incurred with respect

to the Company or the Properties in accordance with the applicable terms of the Management Agreements and this Agreement.

 

                        (ii)                                  Taxes.  For purposes hereof, the term “Taxes” shall mean all taxes imposed upon the Company or its subsidiaries, including, without limitation, federal, state and Australian income taxes, franchise taxes, personal property taxes, real estate taxes and assessments, payroll, sales and use taxes and other taxes of any kind or nature.  Manager shall timely prepare or cause to be prepared, for the review and approval of the Company, all Tax returns for the Company and its subsidiaries that cover or relate solely to any period of time prior to the Management Services Termination Date and are due prior to February 28, 2015.  At the Company’s request and direction, Manager shall file such approved Tax returns.  Manager shall reasonably cooperate with the Company with respect to any Tax matters, and such cooperation shall include the retention and the provision of books, records and information of the Company and its subsidiaries in Manager’s possession or under Manager’s control that have not been transferred to the Company or its agent and that are relevant in any material respect to any Tax matters pertinent to the Company until the expiration of the statute of limitations (including extensions thereof of which Manager was informed) and shall abide by all record retention agreements entered into with any taxing authority.  With respect to matters that are under Manager’s control and for which Manager is responsible pursuant to this Agreement or the Management Agreements after Management Services Termination Date, Manager shall advise the Company of any actions Manager believes are necessary to ensure compliance by the Company with the requirements necessary to maintain its status as a real estate investment trust as defined in the Internal Revenue Code of 1986.

 

                        (iii)                               Budget.  Manager shall cooperate with the Company and its agent to facilitate (A) any ministerial changes to the operating and capital expense budgets for each Property for the year 2015, from time to time as reasonably requested by the Company, including providing the Company with access to Argus Enterprise and maintaining all necessary licenses and systems in connection therewith, and (B) transferring or making available for transfer applicable data in Manager’s possession and control with respect to the operating and capital expense budgets to the Company’s systems as and when reasonably requested by the Company.

 

                        (iv)                              Reporting.  Under the supervision and at the direction of the Company, Manager shall timely and accurately prepare, for the review, approval and filing by the Company, a quarterly report on Form 10-Q (together with a supplement in accordance with past practice) for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, as required to be filed by the Company with the SEC under the Exchange Act and all applicable rules and regulations thereunder, all on the schedule previously agreed upon by the Company and Manager.  In addition, Manager shall cooperate with and assist the Company, at the Company’s request, in the Company’s preparing and filing an annual report on Form 10-K (together with a supplement in accordance with past practice) for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014 (the “2014 Form 10-K”), as required to be filed by the Company with the SEC under the Exchange Act and all applicable rules and regulations thereunder.  In connection with the preparation and filing of the 2014 Form 10-K and the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q referred to in 

 

4

 

this Section 2(b)(iv), Manager shall (1) cooperate with the Company and the Company’s internal and external auditors, and shall use best efforts to assist the Company with the preparation of any audited or unaudited financial statements or other financial information required or appropriate to be included therein and (2) provide written representations and certifications in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A relating to any period prior to the Management Services Termination Date or as otherwise reasonably requested by the Company or its agent, the officers of the Company or the Company’s external auditor consistent with Manager’s past practices and subject to Section 1(b)(ii) of this Agreement.  Until the 2014 Form 10-K is prepared, Manager shall notify the Company, promptly upon Manager acquiring knowledge thereof, of any events that would require the Company to make a filing with the SEC or other regulatory body under applicable laws, rules and regulations, and, in connection therewith, Manager shall cooperate with and assist the Company, at the Company’s direction, to comply with and fulfill such reporting or filing requirement.  In the event the Company directs Manager to include in any such report a disclosure that implicates Manager with respect to any liability, and Manager reasonably objects to such disclosure and provides written notice of such objection to the Company prior to the filing of such report, then the Company acknowledges and agrees that Manager’s involvement in the preparation and filing of such report, in and of itself, shall not constitute an admission by Manager of liability to the Company with respect to such disclosure to which Manager so objected.

 

                        (v)                                 Personal Property.  Manager and the Company each acknowledges and agrees that all EQC Personal Property (as defined below) shall be owned by the Company or its subsidiaries and Manager relinquishes any interest therein.  Upon request by the Company or its agent, Manager shall execute and deliver to the Company (or its designee) a quitclaim bill of sale (and other applicable title transfer documents (e.g., vehicle titles)), without warranty or representation, to relinquish Manager’s ownership of the EQC Personal Property, in a form prepared by the Company (or its agent) and reasonably acceptable to Manager.  For purposes hereof, the term “EQC Personal Property” shall mean all furniture, fixtures, equipment, computers, computer systems and software (excluding any access or systems linked to Manager’s network or server and any licenses where such licenses do not permit transfer or assignment), printers, copiers, office supplies, on-site hardware, internet connectivity, phones, equipment and phone numbers, cellular phones and cellular phone numbers, fax machines, books, records, documents, vehicles, and any other tangible personal property located at the Properties (other than personal property owned by employees or tenants under leases of the Properties and/or computers, cellular phones and cellular phone numbers of Manager’s continuing employees) and any licenses, permits, websites, intellectual property or other intangible personal property for the Properties.  This Section 2(b)(v) shall survive indefinitely.

 

                        (vi)                              Data Transfer.  Manager shall cooperate with the transfer of all reasonably requested data specifically or exclusively related to the Company and its subsidiaries, wherever stored, to the Company’s or its designee’s information technology systems, including, without limitation, Yardi, Argus, WinFas, Corrigo, SiteLink, and the Microsoft Outlook database (including, without limitation, contacts, email and calendar, in .pst files or otherwise as reasonably requested by the Company, of each

employee of Manager that will continue to provide services to the Company or its property manager(s) after the Management Services Termination Date).

 

                        (vii)                           Employees.  Manager shall be responsible for severance payments, if any, in connection with the termination of Manager’s employees.  The Company or the Owners shall be responsible for all accrued vacation payments in connection with the termination of Manager’s employees as a result of the Transition.

 

                        (viii)                        Assignment of Agreements.  At the Company’s request, Manager shall assign, without representation or warranty, to the Company or its designee any service contracts, personal property and equipment leases, listing agreements and other similar agreements relating to the Company or its subsidiaries or the Properties, as designated by the Company.

 

(c)          Fees.  Provided that the Australian Management Agreement has not been terminated by the Company prior thereto for Cause and Manager continues to perform in all material respects its obligations under this Agreement, in consideration for Manager’s performance of the Transition Services & Cooperation, the Company shall pay to Manager (x) for the period from October 1, 2014 to December 31, 2014, an amount equal to $1,200,000 per month for the months of October, November and December, 2014, payable ten (10) days after the last day of the applicable month, and (z) for the period from January 1, 2015 to February 28, 2015, an amount equal to $1,200,000 per month for the months of January and February, 2015, which aggregate amount shall be payable on March 10, 2015.

 

(d)         Continuing Cooperation.  After February 28, 2015, (i) Manager shall continue to deliver to the Company, at the Company’s reasonable request, information and materials relating to the Company, and (ii) Manager shall provide continuing or additional transition and cooperation services on such terms and conditions as the Company may reasonably request after February 28, 2015; provided that, with respect to both of the preceding clauses (i) and (ii), (x) Manager’s obligations are limited to reasonable cooperation both in the manner and timing of the response, taking into consideration Manager’s staffing and other business demands at such time, and (y) the Company shall reimburse Manager, within 30 days after Manager’s written request (together with reasonable supporting documentation), for any actual, out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Manager in connection with such cooperation services after February 28, 2015.

 

(3)                                 Confidentiality.  From and after the date hereof until February 28, 2017, Manager shall hold in confidence and not disclose to third parties any confidential or proprietary information of the Company or any of the Company’s subsidiaries which is disclosed to Manager in connection with its duties, obligations and activities under this Agreement and the Management Agreements, except to the extent (a) such information is available to the general public, (b) such information is requested by a governmental or self-regulatory authority or required by law, regulation or pursuant to the terms of a valid and effective subpoena or order issued by a court of competent jurisdiction or a federal, state or local governmental or regulatory body or pursuant to a civil investigative demand or similar judicial process, or (c) disclosure is made to legal advisors to or accountants of Manager, provided that in the case of disclosure permitted by clause (b), to the extent reasonably practical, Manager shall notify the Company of such disclosure prior thereto.  Nothing 

 

6

 

herein is intended to prohibit Manager from disclosing confidential or proprietary information of the Company or its affiliates (i) in the ordinary course of the Company’s business in compliance with Manager’s obligations and duties under this Agreement and the Management Agreements, or (ii) at the Company’s or its agent’s direction, to any person who has entered into a confidentiality agreement with the Company in connection with the possible sale or other disposition of the Company or any of its assets.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties acknowledge that this Agreement may be required to be filed by the Company in a public report filed with the SEC.

 

(4)                                 Actions with Respect to Restricted Shares. The Company agrees that, promptly following the request of (i) Manager, (ii) any officer, director or employee of Manager or any affiliate of Manager that previously received from the Company one or more grants of EQC Shares, or (iii) any person who previously served as an officer or trustee of the Company and received from the Company one or more grants of EQC Shares (any such person referred to in clause (ii) or (iii), a “Recipient”), the Company shall assist the Recipient with the resale of any shares owned by a Recipient as follows, solely to the extent permitted by and in accordance with all applicable laws, rules, regulations and policies (including, without limitation, those promulgated by the SEC and New York Stock Exchange): (a) if required for the Recipient to sell its EQC Shares in compliance with applicable securities laws, registering Recipient’s EQC Shares at the cost and expense of the Company (provided that the Recipient shall pay the fees and expenses of its own counsel and advisors, if any, and shall bear any underwriting discount or commission), subject to customary terms and conditions, and provided that such Recipient shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Company for, from and against any and all liability or losses resulting from the actions, statements or omissions of such Recipient in connection therewith, and (b) removing any legends with respect to transfer and vesting restrictions from the certificates evidencing such shares and, if applicable, from the share books and records of the Company promptly following receipt by the Company of a written opinion of counsel of national reputation reasonably satisfactory to the Company in form and substance stating that neither such legend nor the related restrictions on transfer are required in order for such resale to be undertaken in compliance with the Securities Act, other applicable securities laws, rules and regulations and any applicable benefit plans; provided that the Company will not be obligated to effect any registration of EQC Shares within three months after the effective date of a previous registration of EQC Shares or if the Company’s board determines that it would be harmful to the prospects of the Company to effect such registration.

 

(5)                                 Return of Records.  All books and records in Manager’s possession or under Manager’s control relating to the Company or the Properties shall be delivered to the Company.  Following the date hereof until the later of one (1) year after the date hereof and the expiration of the applicable period pursuant to Manager’s document retention policy (as in effect as of the date hereof), if Manager discovers additional books or records relating to the Company or the Properties in its possession or under its control, Manager shall promptly deliver the same to the Company.

 

(6)                                 Commissions and Liens.  Manager acknowledges that there are no leasing commissions, brokerage fees or similar commissions or fees payable by the Company or its subsidiaries to Manager or its affiliates as of the date hereof (other than any fees payable under this 

 

7

 

Agreement and the Management Agreements), and there are no agreements, written or otherwise, pursuant to which any such commissions or fees may accrue or be payable by the Company to Manager or its affiliates after the date hereof.  To the extent Manager or its affiliates is holder of any lien (or right to impose a lien) upon any property of the Company or its subsidiaries, related to any such commissions or fees or otherwise, Manager, on behalf of itself and its affiliates, hereby forever waives and releases all such liens (or rights to impose such liens).

 

(7)                                 Manager Conduct.  The Company acknowledges and agrees that while this Agreement and the Management Agreements are in effect, Manager will engage in other activities or businesses and act as the manager to other persons or entities (including other real estate investment trusts) which may have investment policies and objectives similar to those of the Company and invest in real estate (including real estate which may be offered for sale by the Company) for its own account or that of its affiliates.  For the avoidance of doubt, Manager may compete with the Company for real estate acquisitions.  However, notwithstanding anything to the contrary, at all times on and before February 28, 2015, Manager shall not recommend to, or attempt to influence, (i) any existing tenants at the Properties to relocate to any property other than a Property or (ii) any prospective tenants to lease space at any property other than a Property; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not be construed to limit or restrict in any way Manager’s ability to respond to any such tenant’s general market requests for proposals, tours or proposals or issue proposals or respond to any other requests resulting therefrom.

 

(8)                                 Entire Agreement.  This Agreement contains the entire understanding of the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and may be amended only by an agreement in writing executed by the Parties.

(11)                          Successors and Assigns.  This Agreement shall not be assignable by any of the Parties.  This Agreement, however, shall be binding on successors of the Parties.

 

(12)                          No Third Party Beneficiaries.  This Agreement is solely for the benefit of the Parties and is not enforceable by any other persons; except, however, the third-party beneficiaries of the covenants set forth in Section 3 hereof and Section 4 shall have the right to enforce such covenants.

to be substituted in all respects for any member of the Dealer Group in respect of, all obligations of such member of the Dealer Group under any ADP Liability for which such member of the Dealer Group may be liable, as guarantor, original tenant,
primary obligor or otherwise. If such termination or substitution is not effected by the Distribution Date, (A) ADP shall indemnify and hold harmless the relevant Dealer Indemnified Party for any Liability arising from or relating thereto and
(B) without the prior written consent of Dealer, from and after the Distribution Date, ADP shall not, and shall not permit any member of the ADP Group to, amend, renew or extend the term of, increase its obligations under, or transfer to a

satisfactory in form and substance to Dealer. 
 (ii) ADP and Dealer shall cooperate, and shall cause their respective Groups to cooperate,
to terminate, or to cause a member of the Dealer Group to be substituted in all respects for any member of the ADP Group in respect of, all obligations of such member of the ADP Group under any Dealer Liability for which

(i) Subject to the Ancillary Agreements, and unless the Parties agree otherwise, any agreement to which any member of the ADP Group or the
Dealer Group is a party prior to the Effective Time that inures to the benefit or burden of both of the ADP Business and the Dealer Business (a “Mixed Contract”) shall be assigned in part to Dealer or one of its Subsidiaries, and/or
to ADP or one of its Subsidiaries, as the case may be, if so assignable, prior to or as of the Effective Time, such that each Party or its respective Subsidiaries shall be entitled to the rights and benefits thereof and shall assume the related
portion of any obligations thereunder and any Liabilities inuring to their respective Businesses; provided, however, that in no event shall either Party be required to assign any Mixed Contract in its entirety. If any Mixed Contract
cannot be so partially assigned, ADP and Dealer shall, and shall cause each of their respective Subsidiaries to, take such other reasonable and permissible actions to cause: (A) the Assets associated with that portion of each Mixed Contract
that relates to the Dealer Business to be enjoyed by Dealer or a Dealer Subsidiary; (B) the Liabilities associated with that portion of each Mixed Contract that relates to the Dealer Business to be borne by Dealer or a Dealer Subsidiary;
(C) the Assets associated with that portion of each Mixed Contract that relates to the ADP Business to be enjoyed by ADP or an ADP Subsidiary; and (D) the Liabilities associated with that portion of each Mixed Contract that relates to the
ADP Business to be borne by ADP or an ADP Subsidiary; provided, however, that the arrangements described in clauses (A), (B), (C) and (D) shall terminate on the earlier to occur of (1) the termination of the applicable
Mixed Contract and (2) the first anniversary of the Distribution Date. 
 (ii) Except as may otherwise be agreed by the Parties,
neither Party shall seek to assign any accounts receivable or accounts payable relating to both the ADP Business and the Dealer Business (“Mixed Accounts”). ADP and Dealer 

  
 19 

 
shall, and shall cause each of their respective Subsidiaries to, take such other reasonable and permissible actions to cause: (A) the Assets associated with that portion of each Mixed
Account that relates to the ADP Business to be enjoyed solely by ADP or an ADP Subsidiary; (B) the Liabilities associated with that portion of each Mixed Account that relates to the ADP Business to be borne solely by ADP or an ADP Subsidiary;
(C) the Assets associated with that portion of each Mixed Account that relates to the Dealer Business to be enjoyed solely by Dealer or a Dealer Subsidiary; and (D) the Liabilities associated with that portion of each Mixed Account that
relates to the Dealer Business to be borne solely by Dealer or a Dealer Subsidiary; provided, however, that the arrangements described in clauses (A), (B), (C) and (D) shall terminate no later than the first anniversary of
the Distribution Date.

obligation or grant any concession to any third party in order to effect any transaction contemplated by this Section 2.3(g).

with each member of the ADP Group and (ii) each such Shared Person who is to continue as an officer or director of any member of the ADP Group after the Distribution Date shall resign, effective at or prior to the Effective Time, from each of
such Person’s positions with each member of the Dealer Group.

Parties”), from and against any and all Losses or Liabilities of the ADP Indemnified Parties relating to, arising out of or resulting from any of the following items regardless of whether arising from or alleged to arise from negligence,
recklessness, violation of Law, fraud, misrepresentation or otherwise (without duplication): 
 (a) the failure of Dealer or any other

prior to, on or after the Distribution Date; 
 (b) any Dealer Liability, any Dealer Asset or the Dealer Business, whether arising prior to,
on or after the Distribution Date; 
 (c) any breach by Dealer or any member of the Dealer Group of this Agreement; 

(d) except to the extent set forth in Section 4.3(d), any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or
alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, contained in the Registration Statement or the Information Statement or in any registration statement filed by Dealer

Dealer Agreement or Dealer Liability according to the terms and conditions of Section 2.3(f)(ii); and 
 (f) the failure by Dealer to
perform in connection with any Delayed Transfer Asset and/or Liability held by ADP for Dealer’s benefit or account pursuant to Section 2.3(b). 

  
 25 

 Section 4.3 Indemnification by ADP. ADP shall indemnify, defend, release and hold
harmless Dealer, each member of the Dealer Group and each of their respective directors, officers and employees, and each of the heirs, executors, successors and assigns of any of the foregoing (collectively, the “Dealer Indemnified
Parties,” and, together with ADP Indemnified Parties, the “Indemnified Parties”), from and against any and all Losses or Liabilities of the Dealer Indemnified Parties relating to, arising out of or resulting from any of the
following items regardless of whether arising from or alleged to arise from negligence, recklessness, violation of Law, fraud, misrepresentation or otherwise (without duplication): 

(a) the failure of ADP or any other member of the ADP Group or any other Person to pay, perform or otherwise promptly discharge any ADP

Section 4.4 Insurance. 

(a) Each of ADP and Dealer shall use its respective commercially reasonable efforts to collect any proceeds under its respective available and
applicable third party insurance policies to which it or any of its Subsidiaries is entitled prior to seeking indemnification under this Agreement, where allowed; provided, however, that any such actions by an Indemnified Party will
not relieve the Indemnifying Party of any of its obligations under this Agreement, including the Indemnifying Party’s obligation to pay directly or reimburse the Indemnified Party for costs and expenses actually incurred by the Indemnified
Party. 

  
 26 

 (b) The amount of any Loss subject to indemnification pursuant to this Agreement will be reduced
by any amounts actually recovered (including insurance proceeds or other amounts actually recovered under insurance policies, net of any out-of-pocket costs or expenses incurred in the collection thereof), whether retroactively or prospectively, by
the Indemnified Party from any third Person with respect to such Loss. If any Indemnified Party recovers an amount from a third Person in respect of any Loss for which indemnification is provided in this Agreement after the full amount of such
indemnifiable Loss has been paid by an Indemnifying Party or after an Indemnifying Party has made a payment of such indemnifiable Loss and the amount received from the third Person exceeds the remaining unpaid balance of such indemnifiable Loss,
then the Indemnified Party will promptly remit to the Indemnifying Party the excess (if any) of (i) the sum of the amount previously paid by such Indemnifying Party in respect of such indemnifiable Loss plus the amount received by such
Indemnified Party from such third Person in respect of such indemnifiable Loss (after deducting any costs and expenses that have not yet been paid or reimbursed by the Indemnifying Party), minus (ii) the full amount of such indemnifiable Loss.
An insurer or other third Person who would otherwise be obligated to pay any Loss shall not be relieved of the responsibility with respect thereto by virtue of the indemnification provisions hereof or, solely by virtue of the indemnification
provisions hereof, have any subrogation rights with respect thereto, it being understood and agreed that no insurer or any third Person shall be entitled to a “windfall” (i.e., a benefit it would not be entitled to receive in the
absence of the indemnification provisions) by virtue of the indemnification provisions hereof. 
 Section 4.5 Procedures for
Indemnification of Third Party Claims. 
 (a) If an Indemnified Party shall receive notice or otherwise learn of the assertion by any
Person who is not a member of the ADP Group or the Dealer Group of any claim, or of the commencement by any such Person of any Action, with respect to which an Indemnifying Party may be obligated to provide indemnification to such Indemnified Party
pursuant to Section 4.2 or Section 4.3, or any other Section of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement (other than the Tax Matters Agreement) (collectively, a “Third Party Claim”), such Indemnified Party shall give such
Indemnifying Party prompt written notice thereof and, in any event, within ten (10) days after such Indemnified Party received notice of such Third Party Claim. Any such notice shall describe the Third Party Claim in reasonable detail,
including, if known, the amount of the Liability for which indemnification may be available. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the failure of any Indemnified Party or other Person to give notice as provided in this Section 4.5(a) shall not relieve
the related Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Article IV, except to the extent that such Indemnifying Party is actually prejudiced by such failure to give notice. 

(b) An Indemnifying Party may elect (but is not required) to assume the defense of and defend, at such Indemnifying Party’s own expense
and by such Indemnifying Party’s own counsel, any Third Party Claim. Within thirty (30) days after the receipt of notice from an Indemnified Party in accordance with Section 4.5(a) (or sooner, if the nature of such Third Party Claim
so requires), the Indemnifying Party 

  
 27 

 
shall notify the Indemnified Party of its election whether the Indemnifying Party will assume control of the defense of such Third Party Claim, which election shall specify any reservations or
exceptions. If, in such notice, the Indemnifying Party elects to assume the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel and to participate in (but not control) the defense, compromise, or
settlement thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be the expense solely of such Indemnified Party. 
 (c) If, in such
notice, an Indemnifying Party elects not to assume responsibility for defending a Third Party Claim, or fails to notify an Indemnified Party of its election as provided in Section 4.5(b), such Indemnified Party may defend such Third Party Claim
at the cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party (subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement). 
 (d) The Indemnifying Party
shall not have the right to compromise or settle a Third Party Claim the defense of which it shall have assumed pursuant to Section 4.5(b) except with the consent of the Indemnified Party (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed
or conditioned). Any such settlement or compromise made or caused to be made of a Third Party Claim in accordance with this Article IV shall be binding on the Indemnified Party in the same manner as if a final judgment or decree had been entered by
a court of competent jurisdiction in the amount of such settlement or compromise. For the avoidance of doubt, the Indemnified Party’s failure to consent to any such settlement or compromise shall be deemed unreasonable if such settlement or
compromise (1) provides for an unconditional release of the Indemnified Party from Liability with respect to such Third Party Claim and (2) does not require the Indemnified Party to make any payment that is not fully indemnified under this
Agreement or to be subject to any non-monetary remedy. If the Indemnified Party unreasonably withholds a consent required by this Section 4.5(d) to the terms of a compromise or settlement of a Third Party Claim proposed to the Indemnified Party
by the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnifying Party’s obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Party for such Third Party Claim (if applicable) shall not exceed the total amount that had been proposed in such compromise or settlement offer plus
the amount of all expenses incurred by the Indemnified Party with respect to such Third Party Claim through the date on which such consent was requested. 

(e) In the event of payment by or on behalf of any Indemnifying Party to any Indemnified Party in connection with any Third Party Claim, such
Indemnifying Party shall be subrogated to and shall stand in the place of such Indemnified Party as to any events or circumstances in respect of which such Indemnified Party may have any right, defense or claim relating to such Third Party Claim
against any claimant or plaintiff asserting such Third Party Claim or against any other Person. Such Indemnified Party shall cooperate with such Indemnifying Party in a reasonable manner, and at the cost and expense of such Indemnifying Party, in
prosecuting any subrogated right, defense or claim. 
 (f) The provisions of Section 4.2 through Section 4.6 shall not apply to
matters that are governed by the Tax Matters Agreement. 

  
 28 

 Section 4.6 Procedures for Indemnification of Non-Third Party Claims. Any claim with
respect to a Liability that does not result from a Third Party Claim shall be asserted by written notice given by the Indemnified Party to the Indemnifying Party. Such Indemnifying Party shall have a period of thirty (30) days after the receipt
of such notice within which to respond thereto. If such Indemnifying Party does not respond in writing within such 30-day period, such Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have agreed to accept responsibility to make payment. If such Indemnifying
Party (a) does not respond within such 30-day period or (b) rejects such claim in whole or in part and does not deliver a Dispute Escalation Notice pursuant to Section 10.8 within such 30-day period, then, in either case, such
Indemnified Party shall be free to pursue such remedies as may be available to such Party as contemplated by this Agreement. 

Section 4.7 Survival of Indemnities. The rights and obligations of each of ADP and Dealer and their respective Indemnified Parties
under this Article IV shall survive the sale or other transfer by any Party of any of its Assets or Businesses or the assignment by it of any Liabilities. 

Section 4.8 Remedies Cumulative. The remedies provided in this Article IV shall be cumulative and shall not preclude assertion by
any Indemnified Party of any other rights or the seeking of any and all other remedies against any Indemnifying Party; provided, that the procedures set forth in this Article IV shall be the exclusive procedures governing any indemnity action
brought under this Agreement. 
 Section 4.9 Ancillary Agreements. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary,
to the extent any Ancillary Agreement contains any indemnification obligation relating to any ADP Liability, ADP Asset, Dealer Liability or Dealer Asset contributed, assumed, retained, transferred, delivered or conveyed pursuant to such Ancillary
Agreement, the indemnification obligations contained herein shall not apply to such ADP Liability, ADP Asset, Dealer Liability or Dealer Asset and instead the indemnification obligations set forth in such Ancillary Agreement shall govern with regard
to such ADP Asset, ADP Liability, Dealer Asset or Dealer Liability. 
 Section 4.10 Mutual Release. 

(a) Except as provided in Section 4.10(c), effective as of the Effective Time, ADP does hereby, on behalf of itself and each other member
of the ADP Group, their respective Affiliates (other than any member of the Dealer Group), successors and assigns, and all Persons who at any time prior to the Effective Time have been stockholders (other than any member of the Dealer Group),
directors, officers, agents or employees of any member of the ADP Group (in each case, in their respective capacities as such) (the “ADP Releasors”), unconditionally and irrevocably release and discharge each of Dealer, the other
members of the Dealer Group, their respective Affiliates (other than any member of the ADP Group), successors and assigns, and all Persons who at any time prior to the Effective Time have been stockholders, directors, officers, agents or employees
of any member of the Dealer Group (in each case, in their respective capacities as such), and their respective heirs, executors, trustees, administrators, successors and assigns (the “Dealer Parties”), from any and all Liabilities

  
 29

initiate proceedings with respect to, or institute, assert or threaten to assert, any ADP Claim.

Section 4.10(c), effective as of the Effective Time, Dealer does hereby, on behalf of itself and each other member of the Dealer Group, their respective Affiliates (other than any member of the ADP Group), successors and assigns, and all
Persons who at any time prior to the Effective Time have been stockholders (other than any member of the ADP Group), directors, officers, agents or employees of any member of the Dealer Group (in each case, in their respective capacities as such)

all Persons who at any time prior to the Effective Time have been stockholders (other than any member of the Dealer Group), directors, officers, agents or employees of any member of the ADP Group (in each case, in their respective capacities as
such), and their respective heirs, executors, trustees, administrators, successors and assigns (the “ADP Parties”), from any and all Liabilities existing or arising in connection with the implementation of the Separation (the
“Dealer Claims”); and the Dealer Releasors hereby unequivocally, unconditionally and irrevocably agree not to initiate proceedings with respect to, or institute, assert or threaten to assert, any Dealer Claim. 

(c) Nothing contained in Section 4.10(a) or 4.10(b) shall impair any right of any Person to enforce this Agreement or any Ancillary
Agreement, nor shall anything contained in this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement be interpreted as terminating as of the Effective Time any rights under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement. For purposes of clarification, nothing contained
in Section 4.10(a) or 4.10(b) shall release any Person from: 
 (i) any Liability provided in or resulting from this Agreement or any

 In addition, nothing contained in this Section 4.10 shall release ADP from honoring its
existing obligations to indemnify any director, officer or employee of Dealer who was a director, officer or employee of ADP or any other member of the ADP Group on or prior to the Effective Time, to the extent that such director, officer or
employee becomes a named defendant in any litigation involving ADP or any other member of the ADP Group and was entitled to such indemnification pursuant to the then existing obligations of a member of the ADP Group. 

(d) ADP shall not make, and shall not permit any other member of the ADP Group to make, any claim or demand, or commence any Action asserting
any claim or demand, including any claim of contribution or any indemnification, against Dealer or any other member of the Dealer Group or any other Person released pursuant to Section 4.10(a), with respect to any Liabilities released pursuant
to Section 4.10(a). Dealer shall not make, and shall not permit any other member of the Dealer Group to make, any claim or demand, or commence any Action asserting any claim or demand, including any claim of contribution or any indemnification,
against ADP or any other member of the ADP Group or any other Person released pursuant to Section 4.10(b), with respect to any Liabilities released pursuant to Section 4.10(b).

Section 6.5 Settlement of Certain Insurance Claims. 

(a) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.3(a), the Parties acknowledge and agree that, following the Distribution Date, Dealer may
make claims arising out of occurrences or events relating to the Dealer Business that occurred prior to the Distribution Date against applicable insurance policies of ADP covering periods prior to the Distribution Date (the “Pre-Distribution
Policies”), in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions of such Pre-Distribution Policies. ADP shall not be responsible to negotiate, investigate, defend, settle or otherwise handle such claims on behalf of Dealer.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Party agrees to keep the other Party apprised of the status of any such claims and to cooperate and assist the other Party in a commercially reasonable manner in connection with the communications and discussions
with the applicable insurance providers under the Pre-Distribution Policies. ADP shall instruct the applicable insurance carrier to negotiate with and accept proof of Loss directly from Dealer with respect to such claims, and to pay such claims
directly to Dealer. ADP and Dealer each agree to provide necessary releases to resolve claim settlements. 
 (b) To the extent that the
limits of any Pre-Distribution Policies preclude payment in full of Unrelated Claims filed by ADP and Dealer, the insurance proceeds available under such policies shall be paid to ADP and/or Dealer on a FIFO Basis.

Section 6.6 Transitional Use of ADP Name. ADP agrees that the Dealer Group shall have a royalty-free, non-exclusive,

Date; provided Dealer is diligently transitioning off of such use during such time; (b) solely to the extent that any tangible materials acquired by the Dealer Group hereunder contain the “ADP” trademark or “ADP” logo at the
time such tangible materials are acquired by the Dealer Group hereunder, for a transitional period not to exceed six (6) months following the Distribution Date; and (c) solely with respect to software releases acquired by the Dealer Group
hereunder and installed at sites of clients as of the Distribution Date, for a transitional period ending on the date that a new release of such software has been installed at such client site by the Dealer Group but in any 

  
 34 

 
event not later than one (1) year following the Distribution Date; provided that the Dealer Group shall not be liable for a breach of this clause (c) with respect to software
used by a client if such client has not permitted the Dealer Group to install a new release in accordance with this clause (c), provided that the Dealer Group shall have used its reasonable commercial efforts to comply with this clause
(c) and the Dealer Group is in compliance with this clause (c) within two (2) years following the Distribution Date. ADP agrees further that the Dealer Group shall have a perpetual, royalty-free, non-exclusive, non-transferable
right to use the trademark “ADP” solely with respect to software that contains such trademark at the time such software is acquired by the Dealer Group hereunder, provided that such software is used solely by, and is not made available to
persons other than, the Dealer Group. Any uses of the “ADP” trademark or the “ADP” logo during the periods referred to above shall be subject to ADP’s right to approve the manner, style and placement of the “ADP”
trademark or “ADP” logo on or in connection with any materials, goods or services, except to the extent that any tangible materials acquired by the Dealer Group hereunder already contain the “ADP” trademark or “ADP”

trademark or the “ADP” logo by virtue of this transitional right to use such trademark or logo. 
 ARTICLE VII 

ACCESS TO INFORMATION 

Section 7.1 Agreement for Exchange of Information. 

(a) Each of ADP and Dealer, on behalf of its respective Group, agrees to provide, or cause to be provided, to the other Party and its
auditors, at any time after the Distribution Date, as soon as reasonably practicable after written request therefor from such other Party, any Information in the possession or under the control of such respective Group (including access to such
Group’s accountants, personnel and facilities) that the requesting Party reasonably needs (i) to comply with reporting, disclosure, filing or other requirements imposed on the requesting Party (including under applicable securities Laws)
by a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the requesting Party (including pursuant to Section 7.1(d)), (ii) for use in any other judicial, regulatory, administrative or other proceeding or in order to satisfy audit, accounting,
claims, regulatory, litigation or other similar requirements, or (iii) to comply with its obligations under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement (other than with respect to matters governed by the Tax Matters Agreement, which shall remain
subject solely to the terms and conditions set forth therein); provided, however, that in the event that any Party reasonably determines that any such provision of Information could be commercially detrimental to such Party or any
member of its Group, violate any Law or agreement to which such Party or member of its Group is a party, or waive any attorney-client privilege applicable to such Party or member of its Group, the Parties shall take reasonable measures to permit the
compliance with the obligations pursuant to this Section 7.1(a) in a manner that avoids any such harm or consequence. ADP and Dealer intend that any transfer of Information that would otherwise be within the attorney-client privilege shall not
operate as a waiver of any potentially applicable privilege. 

  
 35 

 (b) Following the Distribution Date, each Party shall make its employees available during normal
business hours and on reasonable prior notice to provide an explanation of any Information provided hereunder. 
 (c) Until the end of the
first full ADP fiscal year occurring after the Distribution Date (and for a reasonable period of time afterwards as required for each Party to prepare consolidated financial statements or complete a financial statement audit for the fiscal year
during which the Distribution Date occurs), each Party shall use its commercially reasonable efforts, consistent with past practice, to enable the other Party to meet its timetable for dissemination of its financial statements and enable such other
Party’s auditors to timely complete their annual audit and quarterly financial statements. 
 (d) In order to enable the principal
executive officer or officers, principal financial officer or officers and controller or controllers of the other Party to make the certifications required of them by Rule 13a-14 under the Exchange Act, within thirty (30) days following the end
of any fiscal quarter during which Dealer is a Subsidiary of ADP, each Party shall cause its officers or employees to provide the other Party with the certification statements of such officers and employees with respect to such quarter or portion
thereof, in substantially the same form and manner as such officers or employees provided such certification statements prior to the Distribution Date, or as otherwise agreed upon between the Parties. Such certification statements shall also reflect
any changes in certification statements necessitated by the Separation, Distribution and any other transactions related thereto. 

Section 7.2 Ownership of Information. Any Information owned by one Group that is provided to a requesting Party pursuant to
Section 7.1 shall be deemed to remain the property of the providing Party. Unless specifically set forth herein or in any Ancillary Agreement, nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed as granting or conferring rights of license or
otherwise in any such Information. 
 Section 7.3 Compensation for Providing Information. The Party requesting such Information
agrees to reimburse the other Party for the reasonable out-of-pocket costs, if any, of creating, gathering and copying such Information or for providing explanations of Information provided, to the extent that such costs are incurred for the benefit
of the requesting Party by or on behalf of such other Party’s Group. Except as may be specifically provided elsewhere in this Agreement or in any other Ancillary Agreement, such costs shall be computed in accordance with the providing
Party’s reasonable standard methodology and procedures. 
 Section 7.4 Record Retention. Except as otherwise required or
agreed in writing, or as otherwise provided in the Tax Matters Agreement, each Party shall use its good faith efforts to retain, in accordance with such Party’s record retention practices as in effect from time to time, all significant
Information in such Party’s possession or 

  
 36 

 
under its control relating to the Business, Assets or Liabilities of the other Party, and, for a period of two (2) years following the Distribution Date, prior to destroying or disposing of
any such Information, (a) the Party proposing to dispose of or destroy any such Information shall use its good faith efforts to provide reasonable prior written notice to the other Party, specifying the Information proposed to be destroyed or
disposed of and (b) if, prior to the scheduled date for such destruction or disposal, the other Party requests in writing that any of the Information proposed to be destroyed or disposed of be delivered to such other Party, the Party proposing
to dispose of or destroy such Information shall promptly arrange for the delivery of the requested Information to a location specified by, and at the expense of, the requesting Party; provided, however, that in the event that any Party
reasonably determines that any such provision of Information could be commercially detrimental to such Party or any member of its Group, violate any Law or agreement to which such Party or member of its Group is a party, or waive any attorney-client
privilege applicable to such Party or member of its Group, the Parties shall take reasonable measures to permit the compliance with the obligations pursuant to this Section 7.4 in a manner that avoids any such harm or consequence. ADP and
Dealer intend that any transfer of Information that would otherwise be within the attorney-client privilege shall not operate as a waiver of any potentially applicable privilege. 

Section 7.5 Limitation of Liability. Notwithstanding Article IV, no Party shall have any Liability to the other Party in the event
that any Information exchanged or provided pursuant to this Agreement (and not otherwise constituting part of this Agreement, its Exhibits or Schedules), or otherwise in connection with the Separation and the other transactions contemplated hereby,
is found to be inaccurate, whether such Information is exchanged or provided prior to or after the Effective Time. No Party shall have any Liability to the other Party if any Information is disposed of or destroyed after using good faith efforts to
comply with its obligations under Section 7.4 with respect to the retention of such Information. 
 Section 7.6 Other
Agreements Providing for Exchange of Information. The rights and obligations granted under this Article VII are subject to any specific limitations, qualifications or additional provisions on the sharing, exchange or confidential treatment of
Information set forth in any Ancillary Agreement. The provisions of Section 7.1 through Section 7.7 shall not apply to matters governed by the Tax Matters Agreement. 

Section 7.7 Production of Witnesses; Records; Cooperation. 

(a) Except in the case of an Action by one Party against another Party (which shall be governed by such discovery rules as may be applicable
thereto), each Party shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to make available to the other Party, upon written request, the former, current and future directors, officers, employees, other personnel and agents of the members of its respective
Group as witnesses and any books, records or other documents within its control or which it otherwise has the ability to make available, to the extent that any such Person (giving consideration to business demands of such directors, officers,
employees, other personnel 

  
 37 

 
and agents) or books, records or other documents may reasonably be required in connection with any Action in which the requesting Party may from time to time be involved, regardless of whether
such Action is a matter with respect to which indemnification may be sought hereunder. The requesting Party shall bear all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses in connection therewith. 

(b) If an Indemnifying Party chooses to defend or to seek to compromise or settle any Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall use its
commercially reasonable efforts to make available to the Indemnifying Party, upon written request, the former, current and future directors, officers, employees, other personnel and agents of the members of its respective Group as witnesses and any
books, records or other documents within its control or which it otherwise has the ability to make available, to the extent that any such Person (giving consideration to business demands of such directors, officers, employees, other personnel and
agents) or books, records or other documents may reasonably be required in connection with such defense, settlement or compromise, and shall otherwise cooperate in such defense, settlement or compromise. 

(c) Without limiting the foregoing, the Parties shall cooperate and consult, and shall cause each member of its respective Group to cooperate
and consult, to the extent reasonably necessary with respect to any Actions and any Related Claims with respect thereto. 
 (d) Without
limiting any provision of this Section 7.7, each of the Parties agrees to cooperate, and to cause each member of its respective Group to cooperate, at the other Party’s sole cost and expense, with the other Party and each member of its
respective Group in the defense of any claim that the Business of the other Party or its Group members infringes upon or misappropriates third Person Intellectual Property and shall not acknowledge or concede, or permit any member of its respective
Group to acknowledge or concede (i) that the Business of the other Party or its Group members infringes upon such third Person Intellectual Property (ii) or that such third Person Intellectual Property is valid or enforceable, in a manner
that would hamper or undermine the defense of such infringement or misappropriation claim. 
 (e) In connection with any matter contemplated
by this Section 7.7, the Parties will enter into a mutually acceptable joint defense agreement so as to maintain to the extent practicable any applicable attorney-client privilege or work product immunity of any member of any Group. 

(f) With respect to any Third Party Claim that implicates both Parties in any material respect due to the allocation of Liabilities,
responsibilities for management of defense and related indemnities pursuant to this Agreement or any of the Ancillary Agreements, the Parties agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate fully and maintain a joint defense (in a manner
that will preserve for all Parties any privilege with respect thereto). The Party that is not responsible for managing the defense of any such Third Party Claim shall, upon reasonable request, be consulted with respect to significant matters
relating thereto and may, if necessary or helpful, retain 

  
 38 

 
counsel to assist in the defense of such claims. Each of ADP and Dealer agrees that at all times from and after the Effective Time, if an Action is commenced by a third party naming two
(2) or more Parties (or any member of such Parties’ respective Groups) as defendants and with respect to which one or more named Parties (or any member of such Party’s respective Group) is a nominal defendant and/or such Action is
otherwise not a Liability allocated to such named Party under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, then the other Party or Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such nominal defendant to be removed from such Action, as
soon as reasonably practicable. 
 Section 7.8 Confidentiality. 

(a) General. Each Party acknowledges (i) that such Party has in its possession and, in connection with this Agreement and the
Ancillary Agreements such Party will receive, Information of the other Party that is not available to the general public, and (ii) that such Information may constitute, contain or include material non-public Information of the other Party.
Subject to Section 7.8(c), as of the Distribution Date, ADP, on behalf of itself and each of its Affiliates, and Dealer, on behalf of itself and each of its Affiliates, agrees to hold, and to cause its and their respective directors, officers,
employees, agents, third party contractors, vendors, accountants, counsel and other advisors and representatives to hold, in strict confidence, with at least the same degree of care that such Party applies to its own confidential and proprietary
Information pursuant to its applicable policies and procedures in effect as of the Distribution Date, all Information (including Information received and/or obtained pursuant to Section 7.1) concerning the other Party (or its Business) and such
other Party’s Affiliates (or their respective Business) that is either in its possession (including Information in its possession prior to the Distribution Date) or furnished by the other Party or the other Party’s Affiliates or their
respective directors, officers, employees, agents, third party contractors, vendors, accountants, counsel and other advisors and representatives at any time pursuant to this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements, and will not use such Information
other than for such purposes as may be expressly permitted hereunder, except, in each case, to the extent that such Information: (i) is or becomes available to the general public, other than as a result of a disclosure by such Party or its
Affiliates or any of their respective directors, officers, employees, agents, third party contractors, vendors, accountants, counsel and other advisors and representatives in breach of this Agreement; (ii) was available to such Party or its
Affiliates or becomes available to such Party or its Affiliates, on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the other Party hereto, provided, that, the source of such Information was not bound by a confidentiality obligation with
respect to such Information, or otherwise prohibited from transmitting the Information to such Party or its Affiliates by a contractual, legal or fiduciary obligation; or (iii) is independently generated by such Party without use of or
reference to any proprietary or confidential Information of the other Party. 
 (b) No Disclosure, Compliance with Law, Return or
Destruction. Following the Effective Time, each Party agrees not to release or disclose, or permit to be released or disclosed, any Information with respect to the other Party to any other Person, except its directors, officers, employees,
agents, third party contractors, 

  
 39 

 
vendors, accountants, counsel, lenders, investors and other advisors and representatives who need to know such Information in connection with this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements or for
valid business reasons relating thereto, and except in compliance with Section 7.8(c). Each Party shall advise its directors, officers, employees, agents, third party contractors, vendors, accountants, counsel, lenders, investors and other
advisors and representatives who have been provided with such Information of such Party’s confidentiality obligations hereunder and that such Information may constitute, contain or include material non-public Information of the other Party.
Following the Effective Time, each Party shall, and shall cause, its directors, officers, employees, agents, third party contractors, vendors, accountants, counsel, lenders, investors and other advisors and representatives who have been provided
with such Information to, use such Information only in accordance with (i) the terms of this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements and (ii) applicable Law (including federal and state securities Laws). Following the Effective Time, each
Party shall promptly, after receiving a written request of the other Party, return to the other Party all such Information in a tangible form (including all copies thereof and all notes, extracts or summaries based thereon) or certify to the other
Party that it has destroyed such Information (and such copies thereof and such notes, extracts or summaries based thereon), as directed by the other Party; provided, however, that in no event shall either Party be required to destroy
any hardware that includes Information if such Information is only accessible to highly skilled computer experts and cannot otherwise be deleted or destroyed without undue cost or effort (provided that such Information will remain subject to the
confidentiality protection provisions herein). 
 (c) Protective Arrangements. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in
the event that, following the Effective Time, either Party or any of its directors, officers, employees, agents, third party contractors, vendors, accountants, counsel, lenders, investors or other advisors or representatives either determines on the
advice of its counsel that it is required to disclose any Information pursuant to applicable Law or the rules or regulations of a Governmental Authority or receives any demand under lawful process or from any Governmental Authority to disclose or
provide Information of the other Party that is subject to the confidentiality provisions hereof, such Party shall, if possible, notify the other Party prior to disclosing or providing such Information and shall cooperate at the expense of the other
Party in seeking any reasonable protective arrangements requested by such other Party. In the event that a protective arrangement is not obtained, the Person that received such request (i) may thereafter disclose or provide such Information to
the extent required by such Law (as so advised by counsel) or by lawful process or such Governmental Authority, without liability therefor and (ii) shall exercise its commercially reasonable efforts to have confidential treatment accorded any
such Information so furnished. 
 Section 7.9 Privileged Information. In furtherance of the rights and obligations of the
Parties set forth in this Article VII: 
 (a) Each of Dealer (on behalf of itself and the other members of the Dealer Group) and ADP (on
behalf of itself and the other members of the ADP Group) acknowledges that: (i) each member of the Dealer Group and the ADP Group has or may obtain Information that is or may be protected from disclosure pursuant to the

  
 40 

 
attorney-client privilege, the work product doctrine, the common interest and joint defense doctrines or other applicable privileges (“Privileged Information”); (ii) actual,

the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements and any transfer of Privileged Information in connection herewith or therewith shall not operate as a waiver of any applicable privilege or protection afforded Privileged
Information. 
 (b) Each of Dealer and ADP agrees, on behalf of itself and each member of the Group of which it is a member, not to
intentionally disclose or otherwise intentionally waive any privilege or protection attaching to any Privileged Information relating to a member of the other Group, without consulting with the other.
