Reg. § 1.338-8 will not apply to cause Parent to take a carryover basis in the SMS Business assets; and (iv) if applicable, the treatment of a conversion of a lower-tier corporate Company Entity to a limited liability company as a liquidation under Section 332 of the Code. For the avoidance of doubt, the IRS Ruling will not be “reasonably satisfactory” if the IRS Ruling includes any caveats or limitations on either party’s ability to rely on the above rulings.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Parent, the Surviving Corporation and the SunGard Entities shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from all amounts payable pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as are required to be deducted and withheld under any applicable Tax Law. To the extent that amounts are so deducted and withheld and paid over to the applicable taxing authority, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made. If Parent or the Surviving Corporation intends to deduct and withhold from the Merger Consideration, or any other amount, payable to Seller under this Agreement, Parent shall notify Seller in writing at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the date withholding is required, together with a statement setting forth the amount to be deducted and withheld. If Seller objects in writing to the determination within five (5) Business Days of such notice, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to agree on the amount that should be deducted and withheld. If the Parties are unable to agree on such amount prior to the applicable payment date, they shall request a mutually agreeable independent leading law firm or accounting firm in the relevant jurisdiction to render an opinion on the amount required to be deducted and withheld, which opinion, absent manifest error, shall be conclusive and binding and the disputed amount of withholding shall be transferred by Parent to a mutually agreeable independent escrow agent, which shall hold the disputed amount until such law firm or accounting firm has rendered its opinion and subsequently release the amount to the Surviving Corporation and/or Seller as directed by such opinion; provided that such disputed amount may be paid over to the applicable taxing authority when due prior to the resolution of the dispute pursuant to this Section 3.3 if payment is required to comply with the applicable procedures of the Tax Law at issue. If any amounts are paid over to the applicable taxing authority and the withholding party was determined to be in error by such law firm or accounting firm, Parent shall pay to the Seller the amount incorrectly withheld (together with interest at the rate prescribed for U.S. federal income tax refunds) and shall be entitled to any refund (including any interest thereon paid by the applicable taxing authority) in respect of the withheld amounts; provided that Seller shall cooperate, at Parent’s expense, with the withholding party in obtaining any such refund. The costs incurred in connection with the engagement of such law firm or accounting firm and escrow agent shall be paid by the Party whose position was not followed in such opinion. Similar rights and procedures shall apply in favor of Parent and the Company Entities with respect to any withholding by the SunGard Entities in respect of payments under this Agreement.

Section 3.4 Post-Closing Purchase Price Adjustment.

(a) As promptly as practicable, but in no event later than ninety (90) days following the date of the Applicable Closing, Parent shall prepare and deliver to SunGard Data a statement (the “Post-Closing Statement”), certified by the chief financial officer of Parent and accompanied by reasonable supporting detail, setting forth the Closing Net Working Capital, the Company Transaction Fees and Expenses and the Merger Consideration, including, in each case, the calculation thereof in

 

20


reasonable detail. The calculations set forth in the Post-Closing Statement shall be final and binding on all Parties unless SunGard Data gives Parent written notice of its objections thereto (an “Objection Notice”), with reasonable supporting detail as to each such objection (each, a “Post-Closing Calculation Objection”), within forty-five (45) days after receipt of the Post-Closing Statement (the “Objection Period”). In the event SunGard Data fails to give Parent an Objection Notice prior to the expiration of the Objection Period or otherwise earlier notifies Parent in writing that SunGard Data has no objections to the calculations set forth in the Post-Closing Statement, the Post-Closing Statement shall be deemed final and binding on all Parties hereto, and all payments to be made in accordance with Section 3.4(d) shall be derived therefrom. Any component of the calculations set forth in the Post-Closing Statement that is not the subject of a timely delivered Objection Notice by SunGard Data shall be final and binding on all Parties except to the extent such component could be affected by other components of the calculations set forth in the Post-Closing Statement. Throughout the period following the Closing Date until the components of the calculations set forth in the Post-Closing Statement are deemed final and binding pursuant to this Section 3.4, subject to Section 7.21, Parent shall permit SunGard Data and its Representatives reasonable access (with the right to make copies), during business hours upon reasonable advance notice, to the financial books and records of the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries for the purposes of the review and objection right contemplated herein.

(b) Parent and SunGard Data shall use reasonable efforts to resolve any dispute arising under Section 3.4(a); provided, that if such Parties are unable to do so within thirty (30) days following SunGard Data’s delivery to Parent of an Objection Notice, then by notice from either such Party to the other such Party, the disagreement with respect to such Post-Closing Calculation Objections may be submitted for resolution to the Independent Accountant. If a dispute is submitted to the Independent Accountant for resolution, Parent and SunGard Data shall enter into a customary engagement letter with, and to the extent necessary each Party to this Agreement will waive and cause its controlling Affiliates to waive any conflicts with, the Independent Accountant at the time such dispute is submitted to the Independent Accountant and shall cooperate with the Independent Accountant in connection with its determination pursuant to this Section 3.4. Within ten (10) days after the Independent Accountant has been retained, each such Party shall furnish, at its own expense, to the Independent Accountant and the other party a written statement of its positions with respect to each matter in dispute. Within five (5) Business Days after the expiration of such ten (10) day period, each such Party may deliver to the Independent Accountant and to each other its response to the other’s position on each matter in dispute. With each submission, each such Party may also furnish to the Independent Accountant such other information and documents as it deems relevant or such information and documents as may be requested by the Independent Accountant with copies being given to the other such Party substantially simultaneously. The Independent Accountant may, at its discretion, conduct a conference concerning the disagreement and each such Party shall have the right to present additional documents, materials and other information and to have present its Representatives. No Party or its Representatives shall be permitted to engage in any ex parte communications with the Independent Accountant.

(c) The Independent Accountant shall be directed to promptly, and in any event within thirty (30) days after its appointment pursuant to Section 3.4(b), render its decision

 

21


on the disputed Post-Closing Calculation Objections. The Independent Accountant’s determination as to each Post-Closing Calculation Objection in dispute shall be set forth in a written statement delivered to each such Party, which shall include the Independent Accountant’s determination as to the calculation of the disputed Post-Closing Calculation Objections, all of which shall be final and binding on all Parties absent manifest error. In resolving any disputed Post-Closing Calculation Objection, the Independent Accountant may not assign a value to such Post-Closing Calculation Objection greater than the greatest value for such Post-Closing Calculation Objection claimed by Parent in its Post-Closing Statement or by SunGard Data in its Objection Notice or less than the lowest value for such item claimed by Parent in its Post-Closing Statement or by SunGard Data in its Objection Notice. The fees and expenses of the Independent Accountant pursuant to this Section 3.4 shall be shared one half by Parent and one half by SunGard Data.

(d) Upon the date that the Post-Closing Statement becomes final and binding in all respects pursuant to this Section 3.4 in the event the Asset Purchase Agreement has been terminated pursuant to Section 9.1(b) thereof, or, if the Asset Purchase Agreement has not been terminated, upon the later of (x) the date that the Post-Closing Statement becomes final and binding in all respects pursuant to this Section 3.4 and (y) the date that the Asset Purchase Post-Closing Statement (as defined in the Asset Purchase Agreement) becomes final and binding in all respects pursuant to Section 3.7 thereof:

(i) if the amount of the Merger Consideration exceeds the amount of the Estimated Merger Consideration (such excess, the “Merger Consideration Excess”), then within five (5) Business Days after such date Parent shall pay, or cause to be paid, an amount in cash by wire transfer to Seller equal to the Merger Consideration Excess; or

(ii) if the amount of the Estimated Merger Consideration exceeds the Merger Consideration (such excess, the “Merger Consideration Shortfall”), then within five (5) Business Days after such date SunGard Data (on behalf of Seller) shall pay, or cause to be paid, an amount in cash by wire transfer to Parent equal to the Merger Consideration Shortfall.

Section 3.5 Accounting Advisors.

(a) The Parties agree that Parent, the Surviving Corporation and any of their Affiliates may engage Deloitte LLP and its Affiliates to advise or represent them in connection with the determination of Post-Closing Statement and the matters addressed by Section 3.4. Each Party will enter into such waivers, indemnities and other agreements as Deloitte LLP or its Affiliates shall reasonably require to permit Deloitte LLP and each of its Affiliates to provide such advice or representation.

(b) The Parties agree that SunGard Data, Seller and any of their Affiliates may engage PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP and its Affiliates to advise or represent them in connection with the determination of the Post-Closing Statement and the matters addressed by Section 3.4.

The scope of such accounting firm’s resolution shall be limited to the disputed item or items.

(v) For the avoidance of doubt, the Parties agree that any Taxes imposed in connection with the Restructuring or the sale of the SMS Business pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement shall be treated as occurring in a Pre-Closing Tax Period or the portion of a Straddle Period ending on and including the Closing Date and, subject to Section 7.4(d), Seller shall be responsible for the payment of such Taxes. Any gain or loss recognized in connection with the Restructuring or the sale of the SMS Business pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement shall be included in the consolidated U.S. federal income Tax Return of SunGard Capital and any consolidated, affiliated, combined, or unitary Tax Returns for state and local income Taxes required to be filed by SunGard Capital or any of its Subsidiaries.

(vii) Seller, Parent and the Company Entities agree that if any Company Entity is permitted but not required under applicable U.S. federal, state, or local or foreign income Tax Laws to treat the Closing Date as the last day of a Taxable Period, then Seller, Parent and the Company Entities shall treat such day as the last day of a Taxable Period under such applicable Tax Law.

(c) Tax Controversies. Each Party shall promptly notify the other Party in writing (a “Notification”) after receipt of notice of any pending or threatened audits, assessments or proceedings with respect to Taxes for which the other Party (or any of its Affiliates) is liable under this Section 7.4 (a “Tax Claim”). Failure to give such Notification shall not relieve the indemnifying party from liability under Section 7.4, except if and to the extent that the indemnifying party is materially prejudiced thereby. Seller shall control the conduct, through counsel of its own choosing at its own expense, of any Tax Claim relating to a Pre-Closing Tax Period of any Company Entity and any Tax Claim involving the consolidated U.S. federal income Tax Return of SunGard Capital (and any combined, unitary or consolidated state Tax Return of SunGard Capital); provided that Parent shall be entitled to participate, at Parent’s expense, in any such Tax Claim for which Parent may be liable under Section 7.4 or that may affect the Taxes of Parent or any Company Entity in any Post-Closing Tax Period or the portion of a Straddle Period beginning after the Closing Date. Seller (and its Affiliates) shall not settle, compromise and/or concede any such Tax Claim without the consent of Parent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned; provided, however, that, so long as Parent has caused to be delivered to SunGard Capital an opinion of nationally recognized counsel mutually agreeable to the Parties that there is a reasonable basis for Parent’s positions, Parent shall be entitled, through counsel of its own choosing at its own expense, to jointly control with Seller the conduct of the portion of any such Tax Claim that relates to issues that could give rise to an indemnification obligation under Section 7.4(d)(ii)(C) or Section 7.4(d)(ii)(D), and Seller shall not settle such portion of such Tax Claim without the consent of Parent. In the case of a Tax Claim that relates to Taxes for a Straddle Period of any Company Entity or for which Parent is otherwise liable under this Section 7.4, Parent shall, at its own expense, control the conduct of such Tax Claim; provided that Seller and Parent shall jointly control any such Tax Claim in respect of a Straddle Period if Seller has more or substantially the same reasonably expected liability under Section 7.4, and Seller shall be entitled to participate, at Seller’s expense, in any other Tax Claim in respect of a Straddle Period; provided further that Parent shall not settle any such Tax Claim in respect of a Straddle Period without the consent of Seller, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. The provisions of Section 10.3(a) shall not apply to Tax Claims governed by this Section 7.4(c).

(d) Indemnification for Taxes.

 

53


(i) From and after the Closing Date, and except to the extent that Parent is liable therefor pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement or Section 7.4(d)(ii), the SunGard Entities, on a joint and several basis, shall be liable for and pay, and shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Datatel Indemnified Parties from and against:

 

  (A) any and all Taxes of the Company Entities for (A) any Pre-Closing Tax Period, and (B) with respect to any Straddle Period, the portion thereof ending on and including the Closing Date (as determined under Section 7.4(b)(iv) and (v)) (including any Taxes resulting from the sale of the SMS Business pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement);

 

  (B) any and all Taxes of any Person imposed under Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-6 or under any comparable or similar provision of state, local or foreign Tax Law on a Company Entity as a result of such Company Entity being a member of a consolidated, combined, affiliated or unitary group on or prior to the Closing Date, or as a transferee or successor, or pursuant to any law, rule or regulation relating to an event or transaction prior to the Closing or pursuant to a Tax sharing or indemnity agreement, or similar arrangement (other than agreements or arrangements entered into in the ordinary course of business as arm’s-length commercial agreements or arrangements that do not relate primarily to Taxes, such as loan or leasing agreements) entered into by a Company Entity prior to the Closing;

 

  (C) any and all Taxes of the Company Entities or Parent resulting from any breach by Seller of the covenant contained in Section 7.1(b)(xiii) of this Agreement;

 

  (D) any and all Taxes of the Company Entities or Parent for any Pre-Closing Tax Period or the portion of a Straddle Period ending on and including the Closing Date resulting from a breach by the SunGard Entities or the Company of the representations and warranties contained in Section 5.9;

 

  (E) any Transfer Taxes and Taxes in respect of the Restructuring for which Seller is liable pursuant to Section 7.4(a); and

 

  (F) any reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses related to the items in (A) through (E) above.

(ii) Parent, the Purchaser Company and the Company, on a joint and several basis, shall be liable for and pay, and shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the SunGard Indemnified Parties from and against:

 

  (A)

any and all Taxes of the Company Entities for (A) any Post-Closing Tax Period, and (B) with respect to any Straddle Period,

 

54


  the portion thereof beginning after the Closing Date (as determined under Section 7.4(b)(iv));

 

  (B) any and all Taxes of the Company Entities for (A) any Pre-Closing Tax Period or (B) with respect to any Straddle Period, the portion thereof ending on or before the Closing Date (as determined under Section 7.4(b)(iv)) in each case resulting from Tax elections made by Parent or any Company Entity or any of their Affiliates after the Closing or any actions on the Closing Date after the Closing, in each case not made in the ordinary course of business of the Company Entities or other than as explicitly contemplated by this Agreement or the Asset Purchase Agreement;

 

  (C) the excess of (1) the amount of any and all U.S. federal income Taxes payable by the SunGard Capital consolidated group for the taxable year which includes the Closing Date or any other Taxable Period as a result of the transactions contemplated by the Asset Purchase Agreement and this Agreement, including the sale and purchase of the SMS Business and the Merger (including any such U.S. federal income Taxes payable in any Taxable Period as a result of losses, deductions, credits or carryovers of losses or credits (“Tax Benefit Items”) having been used to offset income or gain, or to reduce Taxes of the SunGard Capital consolidated group resulting, from such transactions) over (2) the amount of U.S. federal income Taxes that would have been payable by the SunGard Capital consolidated group for the taxable year which includes the Closing Date or such other Taxable Period if there had been no Asset Purchase Agreement and the Company Common Stock had been transferred pursuant to the Merger for $1,775,000,000, as adjusted pursuant to Section 2.2 (with such adjustment determined as if the Asset Purchase Agreement had terminated pursuant to Section 9.1(b) thereof) (including any such U.S. federal income Taxes payable in any Taxable Period as a result of any Tax Benefit Item having been used to offset income or gain, or to reduce Taxes of the SunGard Capital consolidated group resulting, from such transfer); provided that Taxes payable as the result of receiving an indemnity payment pursuant to this Agreement (including amounts payable to gross up for Taxes on receipt of an indemnity payment) shall not be taken into account in determining the amount indemnifiable pursuant to this Section 7.4(d)(ii)(C);

 

  (D)

the excess of (1) the amount of any and all foreign or U.S. state or local income, franchise or similar Taxes (based in whole or in part on net income) payable by any Company Entity, SunGard Capital or any Subsidiary of SunGard Capital for the taxable year which includes the Closing Date or any other Taxable Period as a result

 

55


  of the transactions contemplated by the Asset Purchase Agreement and this Agreement, including the sale and purchase of the SMS Business and the Merger (including any such Taxes payable in any Taxable Period as a result of any Tax Benefit Item having been used to offset income or gain, or to reduce Taxes of any Company Entity, SunGard Capital or any Subsidiary of SunGard Capital resulting, from such transactions) over (2) the amount of any such foreign or U.S. state or local income, franchise or similar Taxes (based in whole or in part on net income) determined to be payable by any Company Entity, SunGard Capital or any Subsidiary of SunGard Capital for any Taxable Period by reporting such transactions for such Tax purposes in a manner consistent with the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement (including the sale of the SMS Business), this Agreement (including the Merger) and, to the extent relevant, the IRS Ruling (including any such Taxes payable in any Taxable Period as a result of any Tax Benefit Item having been used to offset income or gain, or to reduce Taxes of any Company Entity, SunGard Capital or any Subsidiary of SunGard Capital resulting, from such transactions); provided that Taxes payable as the result of receiving an indemnity payment pursuant to this Agreement (including amounts payable to gross up for Taxes on receipt of an indemnity payment) shall not be taken into account in determining the amount indemnifiable pursuant to this Section 7.4(d)(ii)(D);

 

  (E) any Transfer Taxes for which Parent or the Purchaser Company is liable pursuant to Section 7.4(a); and

 

  (F) any reasonable out of pocket costs and expenses related to the items in (A) through (E) above.

(iii) Payment by the indemnifying Party of any amount under this Section 7.4(d) shall be made no later than the later of ten (10) days after written notice by the indemnified Party, which notice shall provide in reasonable detail the amount due to the relevant taxing authority and an explanation therefor, and three (3) days before payment is due to the relevant taxing authority; provided that in the case of a Tax that is contested in accordance with Section 7.4(c), payment of the Tax to the appropriate taxing authority will be considered due no earlier than the date of a determination, within the meaning of Section 1313 of the Code (or any comparable provision of state, local or foreign law), to such effect or such other final, binding settlement with a taxing authority.

(iv) In the event the Asset Purchase Agreement has terminated, Parent and the Company shall have no obligation to indemnify the SunGard Indemnified Parties pursuant to Section 7.4(d)(ii)(C) or Section 7.4(d)(ii)(D), and such Sections shall have no effect. For the avoidance of doubt, the applicability of Section 7.4(d)(ii)(C) and Section 7.4(d)(ii)(D) shall not be limited by reason of the receipt of the IRS Ruling.

 

56


(v) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, this Section 7.4 shall be the sole provision governing indemnification for Taxes under this Agreement.

(e) Basis Determination; Certain Indemnity Issues.

(i) The SunGard Entities shall use their reasonable best efforts to cooperate with the Datatel Entities to permit the Datatel Entities to review and make an independent determination of SunGard Data’s basis in the Company Common Stock (the “Company Stock Basis”). Within ten (10) Business Days after the date hereof, the SunGard Entities shall make available to the Datatel Entities a calculation of the Company Stock Basis along with reasonable supporting detail, as well as any books, records and studies related to the Company Stock Basis that may be useful to the basis determination by the Datatel Entities. The SunGard Entities shall also make available, on a reasonable basis and with reasonable notice, employees and Representatives to provide information and explanations of such materials. The SunGard Entities shall provide updated information related to the Company Stock Basis from time to time as reasonably requested by the Datatel Entities and shall provide the Datatel Entities with an updated calculation of the Company Stock Basis along with a reasonably detailed calculation thereof between twenty five (25) Business Days and fifteen (15) Business Days prior to the date that is reasonably expected to be the Closing Date. Prior to filing any Tax Return for which the Company Stock Basis is relevant (other than in respect of Taxes paid on an estimated basis within thirty (30) days of the Closing Date), the SunGard Entities shall provide the Datatel Entities with their calculation of the Company Stock Basis as of the Closing Date. If the Datatel Entities do not agree with the Company Stock Basis provided by the SunGard Entities, the parties shall attempt to resolve such disagreement within thirty (30) days after the Datatel Entities are provided with the Company Stock Basis calculation. If they are unable to do so, the Independent Accountant shall make a determination of the Company Stock Basis within thirty (30) days of a request by one of the Parties, and the Independent Accountant (or such other mutually acceptable tax advisor) shall provide to SunGard Data a letter in support of filing applicable Tax Returns using the Company Stock Basis so determined. The Company Stock Basis as agreed between the parties or as determined by the Independent Accountant shall be used in the preparation of the Tax Returns of the SunGard Entities as provided in Section 7.4(b). All reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses of the determination described in this Section 7.4(e)(i), including the fees of Representatives, service providers and the Independent Accountant, shall be paid by Parent. For the avoidance of doubt, the determination of the Company Stock Basis hereunder shall not relieve Parent, Purchaser Company and the Company from their obligations under Sections 7.4(d)(ii)(C) and/ or (D).

(ii) If, after the Closing Date, Seller determines that Parent, Purchaser Company and the Company have an indemnifiable obligation under Section 7.4(d)(ii)(C) and/or (D), Seller shall promptly notify Parent and provide Parent with copies of its calculation of the amount to be indemnified under Section 7.4(d)(ii)(C) or (D) (which shall include the component calculations in clauses (1) and (2) of such Sections), together with any documentation or supporting information reasonably requested by Parent to

 

57


enable it to verify the accuracy of such calculations. Seller and Parent shall attempt in good faith to resolve any disputes with respect to such calculations, and any such resolution shall be final and binding on the Parties. In the event that Seller and Parent are unable to reach agreement on such calculations after a period of sixty (60) days, then any items remaining in dispute shall be submitted for resolution to the Independent Accountant, which shall issue its determination within sixty (60) days after submission, and such determination shall be final and binding as to the Parties absent manifest error. Seller and Parent shall provide such accounting firm with any documentation or supporting information as may be reasonably requested in order to allow such accounting firm to make its determination. The fees and expenses of such accounting firm shall be borne by Parent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 7.4(e) shall limit the rights of any Party under Section 7.4(c).

(f) Refunds. Except as provided in Section 7.4(g), any refund of Taxes that were imposed on any Company Entity for any taxable period (or portion thereof) or otherwise and for which the SunGard Entities are liable under Section 7.4(d)(i) shall be the property of SunGard Data and, if received by any Company Entity or any Datatel Entity (including by way of credit offset or allowance against Taxes otherwise payable), an amount equal to such refund (net of any Taxes thereon) shall be paid to Seller promptly upon the date of its receipt or realization. Any refunds of Taxes with respect to a Straddle Period shall be equitably apportioned between SunGard Data and Parent in accordance with their respective indemnification obligations under Section 7.4(d). At SunGard Data’s request, Parent shall file, or shall cause the relevant Company Entity to file, any amended Tax Returns or other claims for a refund of Taxes to which SunGard Data is entitled under this Section 7.4(f); provided that neither Parent nor any Company Entity shall be required to file any amended Tax Return or other claim for a refund if doing so would increase the Tax liability of any Datatel Entity or Company Entity in any Post-Closing Tax Period.

(g) Carrybacks. To the extent permitted by Law, the Datatel Parties and the Company shall not, or shall make an election not to, carry back losses, credits and similar items of the Company or any Company Subsidiary from any Straddle Period or Post-Closing Tax Period to a Pre-Closing Tax Period. With respect to any item for which an election not to carry back cannot be made, any refund actually received by a SunGard Entity (net of any cost, Tax or other reasonable expense incurred or paid by the SunGard Entities in connection with obtaining or receiving such refund) that is attributable to the carryback of such item shall be the property of, and shall be paid over promptly to the Datatel Parties

(h) IRS Ruling Request. The Parties shall use their reasonable best efforts to seek the IRS Ruling as promptly as practicable; provided that the Datatel Entities and their Representatives shall have the primary responsibility for preparing IRS Submissions (as defined below), subject to the SunGard Entities’ right to review and comment thereon. The SunGard Entities and the Datatel Entities shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates, officers, agents, representatives and employees to reasonably cooperate with each other in connection with the preparation and filing of the request for the IRS Ruling (the “IRS Submissions”), including (i) providing each other reasonable access to information and Persons of the SunGard Entities and the Datatel Entities and their respective Affiliates necessary to effectively prepare and file any IRS Submissions, (ii) executing powers of

 

58


attorney such that the Datatel Entities, the SunGard Entities and their Representatives can communicate with the IRS in respect of the IRS Submissions, (iii) providing the IRS such information and representations as the IRS shall request from the SunGard Entities or the Datatel Entities directly, (iv) as required, executing and delivering any IRS Submissions and (v) jointly communicating with the IRS with respect to the matters addressed in the IRS Ruling; provided that neither any SunGard Entity nor any Company Entity shall be required to provide any access to information to the Datatel Entities or any information to the IRS if, in the good faith determination of SunGard Data, it would have a materially adverse effect on any SunGard Entity or any Company Entity. The Datatel Entities shall provide SunGard Capital with a draft of the IRS Submissions (excluding any information that is to be provided by any SunGard Entity or any Company Entity) promptly after the date of this Agreement for SunGard Capital’s review and comment. SunGard Capital shall provide any such comments no later than seven (7) days after receipt of the draft of the IRS Submissions, and the Parties shall use their reasonable best efforts to cause the IRS Submissions to be filed no later than five (5) Business Days after SunGard Capital’s comments, if any, have been provided. Notwithstanding the foregoing, SunGard Capital may redact from any IRS Submissions any information about any SunGard Entity or the Company that SunGard Capital determines, in its reasonable discretion, not to be publicly available information (including any legal analysis or conclusion) that is not pertinent to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Asset Purchase Agreement. All reasonable costs and expenses incurred in respect of the IRS Submissions shall be borne by the Datatel Entities, and Parent shall reimburse the SunGard Entities for any reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ and other advisors’ fees, incurred by or on behalf of a SunGard Entity in connection with the IRS Submissions. To the extent practicable, each of the SunGard Entities and the Datatel Entities and their respective Representatives shall not engage in any significant ex parte communication with the IRS in connection with the IRS Submissions. The SunGard Entities shall inform the IRS personnel handling the SunGard Entities’ spin-off ruling request about the IRS Submissions; provided that the Datatel Entities may participate in any communication so informing the IRS.

(i) No Section 338 Election. Parent is not eligible to make any election under Section 338(g) or Section 338(h)(10) in connection with the Merger in respect of any Company Entity, and the Parties agree that no such election shall be made in connection with the Merger.

(j) Tax Sharing Agreements. All Tax sharing agreements or similar agreements between any SunGard Entity and any Company Entity shall be terminated prior to the Closing and no further payments shall be made thereunder.

Section 7.5 Employee Matters.

(a) As of the Closing, except as otherwise contemplated by Section 7.5 of the Asset Purchase Agreement or Exhibit C, the Business Employees shall cease to be employees of the SunGard Entities or any of their respective Subsidiaries (other than the Company Entities), as applicable, and shall become or continue to be employees of the Company or its Subsidiaries, as applicable, without any interruption in employment, and the Company or its Subsidiaries shall be the sole employer of the Business Employees at the Closing. At the Closing, the Company Entities shall not employ any individuals other than the Business Employees. The Business Employees (including Business Employees covered by the Collective Bargaining Agreement,

 

59


defined below) shall be entitled to all compensation or benefits accrued and payable under each SunGard Benefit Plan other than a Company Benefit Plan (excluding any SunGard Benefit Plan providing severance or termination pay) immediately prior to the Closing, which shall be paid by the SunGard Entities in accordance with the terms and conditions of such SunGard Benefit Plans. Only to the extent Business Employees are covered by the collective bargaining agreement between the Company and Local 1723/TUCA Chapter, Council 47, American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees, AFL-CIO, effective July 1, 2010 through June 30, 2013 (the “Collective Bargaining Agreement”), the Datatel Entities agree that, effective at the Closing, the Company shall assume and be bound by the Collective Bargaining Agreement with respect to the applicable Business Employees and shall provide employee benefits to the covered Business Employees in accordance with the terms of the Collective Bargaining Agreement or, to the extent necessary and permissible under the Collective Bargaining Agreement, shall provide substantially equivalent benefits.

(b) (i) None of the Company Entities shall establish, maintain or assume any benefit plan as of the Closing, and (ii) none of the Company Entities shall assume or be deemed to assume any Liabilities or obligations related to or with respect to any SunGard Benefit Plan as of the Closing.

(c) Subject to Section 7.5(c) of the Company Disclosure Schedules, for a period of at least one year following the Closing, the Datatel Entities shall provide, or cause their Subsidiaries or the Company to provide, to Business Employees, other than Business Employees covered by the Collective Bargaining Agreement, bonus and commission opportunity, base wages and salaries and employee benefits and fringe benefits under plans, programs and arrangements (other than equity-based plans) that are at least as favorable as the bonus and commission opportunities, base wages and salaries and employee benefits and fringe benefits provided by Datatel, Inc. to similarly situated employees of Datatel, Inc. For greater certainty, neither the Datatel Entities nor the Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries shall be under any obligation to retain any Company Benefit Plan or Datatel Benefit Plan following the Closing, other than as required by applicable Law.

(d) To the extent that service is relevant for purposes of eligibility or vesting (other than benefit accrual under a defined benefit plan and vesting pursuant to equity incentive plans) under any Datatel Benefit Plan or any other employee benefit or fringe benefit plan, program or arrangement established or maintained by the Datatel Entities or the Company Entities after the Closing for the benefit of Business Employees, such plan, program or arrangement shall credit Business Employees for service on or prior to the Closing with the SunGard Entities or their Subsidiaries, as the case may be, to the same extent credited for such purposes under the comparable plan, program or arrangement immediately prior to the Closing. For greater certainty, no service by a Business Employee need be recognized to the extent that such recognition would result in any duplication of benefits, or to the extent that such service was not recognized under the corresponding SunGard Benefit Plan, and no such service need be recognized for benefit accrual purposes in any Datatel Benefit Plan that constitutes a defined benefit pension plan in which such Business Employees may be eligible to participate after the Closing. Following the Closing, the Datatel Entities shall cause each “employee welfare plan” (as defined in Section 3(1) of ERISA) covering Business Employees (i) to reduce each such

 

60


eligible employee’s (and his or her eligible dependents) annual deductible limits under such plans for the plan year in which the Closing occurs to the extent deductible expenses were incurred and recognized for comparable purposes under the comparable SunGard Benefit Plan immediately prior to the Closing, and (ii) to the extent waived under the SunGard Benefit Plans, to waive any pre-existing condition limitations or exclusions that do not apply to such employees immediately prior to the Closing. Nothing in this Section 7.5(d) shall obligate the Datatel Entities or any of their Subsidiaries to provide any benefit under any Datatel Benefit Plan that is a welfare benefit plan that it did not provide under such plan as of the Closing Date.

(e) On the Closing Date, and from time to time prior to the Closing upon the reasonable request of Datatel, the SunGard Entities shall deliver to the Datatel Entities an updated list setting forth the Employee Census Information as of such time. In addition, on or prior to the Closing Date, the SunGard Entities shall deliver to the Datatel Entities information relating to the expenses incurred by the Business Employees that count against annual deductible limits and co-payments limits of the “employee welfare plans” covering Business Employees.

(f) SunGard Capital shall, and shall cause SunGard Capital II to, take all actions necessary so that, effective as of the Closing (or effective as of the Asset Closing in the case of a SMS Employee (as defined in the Asset Purchase Agreement)), each SunGard Capital Option and each SunGard Capital RSU held by a Business Employee shall (i) in the case of a SunGard Capital Option, be exercisable during the post-termination exercise period applicable to such SunGard Capital Option, at the election of the Business Employee holding such SunGard Capital Option, by a “net exercise” method whereby the aggregate exercise price for the shares being acquired upon such exercise, and, if permitted by applicable Law, all required tax withholdings due upon such exercise, will be satisfied by SunGard Capital or SunGard Capital II, as applicable, withholding from the shares for which the SunGard Capital Option is being exercised that number of shares having an aggregate fair market value equal to such exercise price and, if permitted by applicable Law, the required tax withholding liability (in which event, SunGard Capital or SunGard Capital, as applicable, shall pay such tax withholding to the applicable tax authorities on behalf of such Business Employee) and (ii) with respect to each SunGard Capital RSU, if so elected by the Business Employee holding such SunGard Capital RSU and if permitted by applicable Law, all required tax withholdings due upon the vesting of such SunGard Capital RSU will be satisfied by SunGard Capital or SunGard Capital, as applicable, withholding from the shares that would otherwise be delivered in settlement of such SunGard Capital RSU that number of shares having an aggregate fair market value equal to the required tax withholding liability (in which event, SunGard Capital or SunGard Capital, as applicable, shall pay such tax withholding to the applicable tax authorities on behalf of such Business Employee).

(g) As of immediately prior to the Applicable Closing, no Business Employee shall be seconded to any of the SunGard Entities or any of their respective Subsidiaries, except, if the Restructuring has not yet been completed, as expressly contemplated by Exhibit C.

(h) The Datatel Entities, the SunGard Entities and the Company acknowledge and agree that provisions contained in this Section 7.5 with respect to Business Employees are included for the sole benefit of the Datatel Entities, the SunGard Entities and the Company, and that nothing in this Agreement, whether express or implied, shall create any third party

 

61


beneficiary or other rights (i) in any other Person, including any Business Employees, any current or former participant in any SunGard Benefit Plan or Company Benefit Plan, or, in each case, any dependent or beneficiary thereof, or (ii) to continued employment with the Datatel Entities, the SunGard Entities and the Company, or any of their respective Subsidiaries or Affiliates.

Section 7.6 Competition Law Approvals.

(a) Each of the Parties will give any notices to, make any filings with, and use its reasonable best efforts to promptly obtain any required authorizations, consents and approvals of Governmental Antitrust Entities or the expiration of any applicable waiting periods under Competition Laws, including the HSR Act, in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Asset Purchase Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each of the Parties will, or will cause their “Ultimate Parent Entities” (as defined in the HSR Act) to, (i) file any Notification and Report Forms and related material that it may be required to file with the Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”) and the Antitrust Division of the DOJ under the HSR Act, within ten (10) days from the date of this Agreement, and any other notifications under any Competition Law that may be necessary or advisable as soon after the date of this Agreement as is reasonably practicable, (ii) request early termination of the applicable waiting period under the HSR Act, (iii) use reasonable best efforts to make any further filings that may be necessary, proper or advisable in connection with any such notification, (iv) promptly notify the other Parties of any communication relating to any Competition Law, including the HSR Act, to or from any Governmental Antitrust Entity (v) provide a certification as to substantial compliance with any Request for Additional Information or Documentary Material received from the FTC or DOJ pursuant to the HSR Act or similar requirement within 75 days of receipt, (vi) not withdraw any Notification and Report Form filed pursuant to the HSR Act, or agree to extend any waiting period pursuant to the HSR Act (or any other applicable Competition Law) (including by an agreement not to close the Transactions before a specified date or without prior notice to a Governmental Antitrust Entity) beyond January 4, 2012 without the prior written consent of the other Parties, and (vii) use its reasonable best efforts (including in connection with any litigation) to successfully resolve any investigation, inquiry, action or other administrative or judicial proceeding (a “Proceeding”) under or relating to any Competition Law commenced by either the FTC, the DOJ, any state attorney general or any foreign Governmental Antitrust Entity so as to permit the prompt consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including contesting and defending against any attempt to preliminarily or permanently enjoin, restrain, rescind or block the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or any attempt to declare the transactions contemplated by this Agreement to be unlawful, and seeking to lift or reverse on appeal any such order, injunction or judgment which may be entered, unless the Parties mutually agree not to contest or appeal any such motion, application or Proceeding.

(b) Each of the Parties will cooperate with each other and their respective representatives in connection with the filings and other submissions required by Section 7.6(a) and in connection with resolving any Proceeding under or relating to any Competition Law (including the HSR Act), including any inquiry concerning the transactions contemplated hereby commenced by either the FTC or the DOJ or any state attorney general. The Parties and their respective representatives shall consult with one another and consider in good faith the views of

 

62


each Party as to the appropriate strategy for resolving any such Proceeding under or relating to any Competition Law.

(c) Each Party will consult and cooperate with the other Parties, and will consider in good faith the views of each Party, in connection with any analysis, appearance, communication, presentation, memorandum, brief, argument, opinion or proposal made or submitted in connection with any Proceeding under or relating to any Competition Law, including the HSR Act. In addition, except as may be prohibited by any Governmental Antitrust Entity or by any Law, each Party and its respective representatives shall permit the other Parties and their respective representatives to be present at each meeting or conference relating to any Proceeding under or relating to any Competition Law (unless otherwise agreed between the Parties), including the HSR Act, and to have access to and be consulted in connection with any document, opinion or proposal made or submitted to any third party or Governmental Antitrust Entity in connection with any such Proceeding.

(d) In furtherance of Section 7.6(a), the Datatel Entities shall (i) upon request of a Governmental Antitrust Entity, agree to sell, divest, license or otherwise dispose of any asset(s), Subsidiar(ies), business(es) and/or product line(s) of the Company and its Subsidiaries (after giving effect to the Restructuring) that, in the aggregate, generated revenue during 2010 (as such revenue is reflected in the Company’s SAP and Siebel systems) of up to (but not more than) one percent (1%) of the Applicable Base Merger Consideration (assuming with respect to such definition, solely for this purpose, that clause (b) of such definition applies) and/or (ii) if a Governmental Antitrust Entity has threatened to sue to enjoin the Transactions following certification of substantial compliance with any Request for Additional Information or Documentary Material received from the FTC or DOJ pursuant to the HSR Act, offer to sell, divest, license or otherwise dispose of any asset(s), Subsidiary(ies), business(es) and/or product line(s) of the Company and its Subsidiaries (after giving effect to the Restructuring) that, in the aggregate, generated revenue during 2010 (as such revenue is reflected in the Company’s SAP and Siebel systems) of up to (but not more than) one percent (1%) of the Applicable Base Merger Consideration (assuming with respect to such definition, solely for this purpose, that clause (b) of such definition applies), and in each case consummate such an agreement if accepted by such Governmental Antitrust Entity. If an offer pursuant to clause (i) or clause (ii) of this Section 7.6(d) is not initially accepted by the Governmental Antitrust Entity, the Datatel Entities agree that they shall (x) at the request of the Governmental Antitrust Entity or SunGard Data at any time thereafter, re-extend such offer or (y) propose or accept, as applicable, any other offer to sell, divest, license or dispose of any asset(s), Subsidiar(ies), business(es) and/or product line(s) of the Company and its Subsidiaries (after giving effect to the Restructuring) that, in the aggregate, generated revenue during 2010 (as such revenue is reflected in the Company’s SAP and Siebel systems) of up to (but not more than) one percent (1%) of the Applicable Base Merger Consideration (assuming with respect to such definition, solely for this purpose, that clause (b) of such definition applies) if requested by the Governmental Antitrust Entity and such a request is made at any time prior to the termination of this Agreement.

Section 7.14 Covenant Not To Compete.

(a) In furtherance of the Transactions, each of the SunGard Entities covenants and agree that, for a period ending on the four year anniversary of the Closing Date, the SunGard Entities will not, and will cause (1) their controlled Affiliates, (2) each holding company of SunGard Capital and SunGard Data created after the date hereof that beneficially owns 100% of SunGard Data and is beneficially owned by substantially the same Persons and in substantially the same proportion as the Persons that beneficially owned the SunGard Entities immediately before the creation of such holding company (each, a “New Holding Company”) and (3) each of the controlled Affiliates of each such New Holding Company (each of the SunGard Entities and the Persons set forth in the foregoing clauses (1), (2) and (3), a “Restricted Person”) not to, without the express prior written approval of Parent, engage, directly or indirectly, in a Competing Business or acquire beneficial ownership of any class of the outstanding equity of, or, except to customers in the course of business, provide any loan or other financial assistance to, any Person that is engaged in a Competing Business. For purposes of this Section 7.14, “Competing Business” shall mean the business of providing (i) enterprise resource planning software and services and (ii) administrative system software and services of the type provided by the Company as of the Applicable Closing, in the case of each of clauses (i) and (ii), to colleges and universities in the United States and such other jurisdictions in which the Business is conducted as of the Applicable Closing (for the avoidance of doubt, “Competing Business” shall not include (x) the provision of software and services to school districts or private schools (K-12 or the equivalent), (y) the provision of software and services of the type provided as of the date hereof by any business segment of SunGard Capital other than the Higher Education business segment of SunGard Capital and its Subsidiaries or (z) the provision by any Restricted Person of administrative system software and services to colleges and universities to the extent the provision of such service is, in the Ordinary Course of Business of such Restricted Person, incidental to the business of such Restricted Person and not primarily directed to the provision of software and services to colleges and universities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Restricted Person shall be precluded from (i) owning solely as a passive investment not in excess of five percent (5%) in the aggregate of any class of capital stock of any corporation if such stock is publicly traded and listed on any national exchange or quoted on the NASDAQ National Market, regardless of whether or not such corporation is engaging in a Competing Business; or (ii) purchasing and, following such purchase engaging in, any business that has a subsidiary, division, group, franchise or segment that is engaged in a Competing Business so long as, on the date of such purchase, not more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the consolidated annual revenues of such business for the most

 

68


recently completed fiscal year are derived from a Competing Business; provided that if, on the date of such purchase, such consolidated annual revenues derived from such Competing Business are less than $10 million, no Restricted Person shall be precluded from purchasing, and following such purchase, engaging in such Competing Business. For the avoidance of doubt, none of the provisions of this Section 7.14 shall apply to any Person or its Affiliates (other than a Restricted Person) that acquires a direct or indirect interest in the capital stock of SunGard Capital or any of its Subsidiaries.

(b) Each SunGard Entity agrees that (i) the agreements and covenants contained in this Section 7.14 are reasonable in scope and duration, an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and by the Ancillary Agreements and necessary to protect and preserve the Surviving Corporation’s and the Datatel Entities’ legitimate business interests and to prevent any unfair advantage conferred on the SunGard Entities taking into account and in specific consideration of the undertakings and obligations of the parties under the Agreement and the other Ancillary Agreements, (ii) but for the SunGard Entities’ agreement to be bound by the agreements and covenants contained under this Section 7.14 the Datatel Entities would not have entered into or consummated the Transactions and (iii) that irreparable harm would result to the Surviving Corporation and the Datatel Entities as a result of a violation or breach (or potential violation or breach) by the SunGard Entities (or their Subsidiaries) of this Section 7.14, that monetary damages shall not constitute a sufficient remedy, and that the Surviving Corporation and the Datatel Entities shall have the right to apply to any Governmental Body contemplated by Section 11.5 for specific performance and/or preliminary and final injunctive relief or other relief in order to enforce or prevent any violation of the provisions of this Section 7.14, in addition to any other rights and remedies to which they are entitled at law or in equity. If a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction or other Governmental Body determines that any term, provision, covenant or restriction contained in this Section 7.14 is invalid or unenforceable, then the Parties agree that the court of competent jurisdiction or other Governmental Body will have the power to modify this Section 7.14 (including by reducing the scope, duration or geographic area of the term or provision, deleting specific words or phrases or replacing any invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision) so as to effect the original intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision.

(a) Subject to the limitations contained in Section 9.4, but notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement to the contrary, the Datatel Entities acknowledge and agree that Parent’s and Merger Sub’s obligations to consummate the Merger, and Purchaser Company’s obligation to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Asset Purchase Agreement, are not conditioned upon any Datatel Entity’s obtaining any financing. For the avoidance of doubt, the Datatel Entities acknowledge and agree that the existence of any conditions contained in the Financing Commitments or any commitment letter for any alternative financing or any agreement relating thereto shall not constitute, nor be construed to constitute, a condition to the

 

69


consummation of the Merger hereunder (except to the extent it is separately required by an express provision in this Agreement).

(b) None of the Datatel Entities shall permit any amendment or modification to be made to, or any waiver of any provision or remedy under, or replace, the Financing Commitments if such amendment, modification, waiver or replacement (x) reduces the aggregate amount of the Financing or (y) imposes new or additional conditions or otherwise expands, amends or modifies any of the conditions to the receipt of the Financing in a manner that would reasonably be expected to (I) delay or prevent the Asset Closing Date or the Closing Date, (II) make the funding of the Financing (or satisfaction of the conditions to obtaining the Financing) less likely to occur or (III) adversely impact the ability of Sophia Holding I or Datatel, as applicable, to enforce its rights against other parties to the Financing Commitments or the definitive agreements with respect thereto, and shall use its reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable to arrange the Financing on the terms and conditions described in the Financing Commitments (provided that Parent may (x) modify the terms (but not the conditions) of the Debt Financing Commitments so long as such modifications would not and would not reasonably be expected to (I) reduce the aggregate amount of the Debt Financing unless the Transaction Equity Financing to be provided by the Investors is increased by a corresponding amount on substantially the same terms as provided in the Transaction Equity Financing Commitments, (II) adversely impact the ability of the applicable Datatel Entity to timely consummate the Merger or the Asset Purchase or the likelihood of consummation of the Merger or the Asset Purchase, or (III) adversely impact the ability of Parent to enforce its rights against the other parties to the Financing Commitments and (y) amend the Debt Financing Commitment to add lenders, lead arrangers, bookrunners, syndication agents or similar entities who had not executed the Debt Financing Commitment as of the date hereof; provided that, except as contemplated by the Debt Financing Commitment as in effect on the date hereof and with the prior written consent of SunGard Data (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), the obligations of the Financing Sources providing the Debt Financing Commitment on the date hereof will not be modified or reduced as a result of such addition), including using their reasonable best efforts to (i) maintain in effect the Financing Commitments, (ii) satisfy on a timely basis (taking into account the expected timing of the Marketing Period and the Applicable Closing) all conditions applicable to the applicable Datatel Entity to obtaining the Financing at the Applicable Closing set forth therein that are within its control, (iii) enter into definitive agreements with respect thereto on the terms and conditions contemplated by the Debt Financing Commitment or on other terms and conditions acceptable to Parent that would not adversely impact the timing or amount of the Debt Financing (and provide copies thereof to SunGard Data) and (iv) in the event that all conditions to the Debt Financing Commitment (other than the availability or funding of any of the Transaction Equity Financing) have been satisfied, cause the lenders and the other Persons providing such Debt Financing to fund the Debt Financing required to consummate the Merger and the Asset Purchase. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event that (x) all or any portion of the Debt Financing structured as high yield financing has not been consummated, (y) all of the conditions set forth in Section 8.1 and Section 8.3 and, unless the Asset Purchase Agreement has been terminated pursuant to Section 9.1(b) thereof, all of the conditions set forth in Section 8.1 and 8.3 of the Asset Purchase Agreement have been satisfied or waived (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Applicable Closing, but subject to the fulfillment or waiver of those conditions and such conditions being

 

70


capable of being satisfied) and (z) the bridge facilities contemplated by the Debt Financing Commitment (including any flex terms) are available on the terms and conditions described in the Debt Financing Commitment, then Parent shall cause the proceeds of such bridge financing to be used to replace such high yield financing on the date that the Applicable Closing is required to occur pursuant to Section 2.3 or Section 3.2 of the Asset Purchase Agreement, as applicable.

(c) The Datatel Entities shall as promptly as practicable notify SunGard Data of (i) any termination of any of the Financing Commitments, (ii) the receipt of any written notice or other written communication from any Financing Source with respect to any actual or alleged breach, default, termination or repudiation by any party to any of the Financing Commitments or definitive agreements related to the Financing of any provision of the Financing Commitments or definitive agreements related to the Financing or (iii) receipt of an Escrow Demand Notice (as defined in the Fee Letter). In the event Parent believes in good faith that any portion of the Debt Financing will not be available within the timing contemplated in the Debt Financing Commitment, Parent shall as promptly as practicable notify SunGard Data and shall use its reasonable best efforts to arrange to obtain alternative financing from alternative sources on terms and conditions no less favorable to Parent than those set forth in the Debt Financing Commitment as in effect prior to such alternative financing and in an amount sufficient to consummate the Transactions as promptly as practicable following the occurrence of such event. Parent shall promptly deliver to SunGard Data true and complete copies of all agreements pursuant to which any such alternative source shall have committed to provide Parent with any portion of the Debt Financing. Parent shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Financing Sources providing Debt Financing to fund at the Applicable Closing the Debt Financing required to consummate the Transactions contemplated if all conditions set forth in the Debt Financing Commitment have been satisfied or waived (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Applicable Closing, but subject to the fulfillment or waiver of those conditions and such conditions being capable of being satisfied). For purposes of this Agreement, references to “Financing” and “Debt Financing” shall include the financing contemplated by the Financing Commitments as permitted by this Section 7.15 to be amended, modified or replaced and references to “Financing Commitments” and “Debt Financing Commitments” shall include such documents as permitted by this Section 7.15 to be amended, modified or replaced, in each case from and after such amendment, modification or replacement.

(d) Prior to the Closing, the SunGard Entities, the Company and their respective Subsidiaries shall provide to Parent and its Affiliates, and shall use their reasonable best efforts to cause the officers, employees, advisors and other Representatives of the SunGard Entities, the Company and their respective Subsidiaries to provide to Parent and its Affiliates, all cooperation that is reasonably requested by Parent in connection with the Financing, including: (i) participating in a reasonable number of meetings, presentations, road shows, drafting sessions, due diligence sessions and sessions with the Debt Financing Sources, prospective lenders, investors and ratings agencies, and reasonably cooperating with the marketing efforts of Parent and its Financing Sources, in each case in connection with the Financing; (ii) (A) using reasonable best efforts to furnish Parent and its Debt Financing Sources as promptly as practicable after the date of this Agreement with all financial and other pertinent information regarding the Company and its Subsidiaries as may be reasonably requested by Parent to (1) consummate the Debt Financings at the time the Debt Financings are to be consummated (including the applicable components of adjusted EBITDA derived from the Company’s

 

71


financial information) and (2) in the event that the Note Escrow Closing occurs, to satisfy any disclosure obligations between the Note Escrow Closing and the Closing under the indenture governing the Notes (which disclosure requirements shall not require the provision of any type of information that is not required by paragraph 8 of Exhibit D to the Debt Financing Commitment) and (B) furnishing Parent with the Required Financial Information; (iii) assisting with the preparation of materials for rating agency presentations, offering documents, bank information memoranda and similar documents required in connection with the Financing; (iv) executing and delivering any necessary pledge and other security documents, guarantees, mortgages, other definitive financing documents and other certificates or documents as may reasonably be requested by Parent and otherwise reasonably facilitating the granting of a security interest (and perfection thereof) in collateral; (v) providing all documents and other information relating to the Company and its Subsidiaries reasonably required to enable the delivery of any customary negative assurance opinion and customary comfort letters relating to the Debt Financings and obtaining the consents of the Company’s accountants for use of their reports on the audited financial statements of the Company in any materials relating to the Debt Financing; (vi) using reasonable best efforts to obtain the Company’s accountants’ comfort letters, the legal opinions, surveys and title insurance at the expense of and as reasonably requested by Parent on behalf of the Debt Financing Sources; (vii) providing unaudited consolidated monthly financial statements of the Company (excluding footnotes) consisting of a balance sheet and income statement, to the extent the Company customarily prepares such financial statements; (viii) using commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the Debt Financing Sources benefit from the existing lending relationships of the SunGard Entities; (ix) cooperating reasonably with the Financing Sources requests for due diligence to the extent customary and reasonable; (x) arranging for customary lien and guarantee terminations or releases, as applicable, relating to indebtedness of the SunGard Entities to be delivered at or prior to the Asset Closing; (xi) at least five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, providing all documentation and other information about the Company and each of its Subsidiaries as is reasonably requested in writing by Parent at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the Closing Date in connection with the Debt Financing that relates to applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations including without limitation the USA PATRIOT Act; (xii) in the event that an Escrow Demand Notice (as defined in the Fee Letter) is delivered, the SunGard Entities will deliver to Parent no later than March 31, 2012 all Required Financial Information (with the Required Financial Information for purposes of this clause (xii) being determined as if all of the Debt Financing were to be marketed in April 2012 and issued and funded on May 1, 2012); and (xiii) if the Note Escrow Closing occurs, delivering to Parent on or prior to May 5, 2012, financial statements and financial data regarding the Company and its Subsidiaries, including the related managements’ discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations covering the financial periods of such financial statements, of the type and form that would be required to be included under Items 1, 2 and 3 of Part I of Form 10-Q (but excluding information required by Regulation S-X Rule 3-10) if the Company were required to file a quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the most recently ended fiscal quarter, as well as (A) components of adjusted EBITDA and (B) research and development expense, in each case derived from the financial information of the Company and its Subsidiaries, that would be included in a customary 144A offering memorandum by the Company; provided, however, that nothing herein shall require such cooperation to the extent it would interfere unreasonably with the business or operations of the Company Entities or require the disclosure of information which SunGard Data or the Company reasonably determines would

 

72


reasonably be expected to jeopardize the attorney-client or other similar privilege of a SunGard Entity or any of its Subsidiaries or violate any Law or any Contract to which such SunGard Entity or any of its Subsidiaries is a party; and provided, further, that the Company shall not be required to enter into or perform under any agreement with respect to the Financing that is not contingent upon the Closing or that would be effective prior to or simultaneous with the Closing (in each case other than items specified in clause (ix) relating to assets being purchased in the Asset Purchase Agreement, which the Company shall not be required to enter into or perform if they would be effective prior to the Applicable Closing). Neither the SunGard Entities nor the Company shall be required to pay any commitment or other similar fee or make any other payment (other than reasonable out of pocket costs) or provide or agree to provide any indemnity in connection with the Financing or any of the foregoing prior to the Closing. Datatel shall indemnify and hold harmless the SunGard Entities, the Company, and their respective Subsidiaries and Representatives from and against any and all liabilities, Losses, damages, claims, costs, expenses, interest, awards, judgments and penalties suffered or incurred by them in connection with the arrangement of the Debt Financing (including actions taken at the request of Parent in accordance with this Section 7.15 other than actions pursuant to clause (x)) and any information (other than information furnished by or on behalf of the SunGard Entities, the Company or their respective Subsidiaries) utilized in connection therewith. Datatel shall, promptly upon request by SunGard Data, reimburse the SunGard Entities, the Company and their respective Subsidiaries for all documented and reasonable out of pocket costs incurred by the SunGard Entities, the Company and their respective Subsidiaries in connection with such cooperation. Without granting any of its ownership or other rights, the Company hereby consents to the use of its and its Subsidiaries’ logos in connection with the Debt Financing contemplated by the Debt Financing Commitment; provided that the Company shall have the right to review any documentation containing such logos prior to their use, and provided, further, that such logos are used solely in a manner that is not intended to nor reasonably likely to harm or disparage the Company or the Company Subsidiaries or the reputation or goodwill of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries.

(e) Unless the Marketing Period has ended on or prior to February 10, 2012, the Company and Datatel shall use their respective reasonable best efforts to cause their respective independent accounting firms to complete as promptly as reasonably practical their audit of the consolidated financial statements of the Company and Datatel, respectively, for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011.

(f) Subject to Section 9.4(f), each Party acknowledges and agrees that the obligations of each Party with respect to the Financing are only as set forth in this Section 7.15, and no other provision of this Agreement or any of the Ancillary Agreements shall be deemed to expand or otherwise modify such obligations.

(a) In the event of termination of this Agreement by either Parent or SunGard Data as provided in Section 9.1, this Agreement (and the Asset Purchase Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1(a) thereof) will forthwith become void and have no further force or effect, without any Liability (other than as set forth, and subject to the limitations included, in Section 9.2, Section 9.4 or this Section 9.3) on the part of the Datatel Entities, the SunGard Entities or the Company (or any Representative of any such Party); provided, however, that the provisions of the last sentence of Section 7.8(b), Section 7.10, the two penultimate sentences in Section 7.15(d), Section 9.2, Section 9.3, Section 9.4, Section 9.5 and Article XI will survive any termination hereof; provided, further, that the provisions of Section 7.24 will survive any termination pursuant to Section 9.4(e) or Section 9.4(f) (but not any other termination pursuant to Section 9.1) but solely until 91 days after the Parent Termination Fee has been paid (after which such 91st day, Section 7.24 will terminate); provided, further, that subject to the terms and limitations of this Section 9.3 and Section 9.4, nothing in this Section 9.3(a) shall relieve any party of any Liability for any willful and material breach by such Party of this Agreement prior to the Effective Time.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if the Datatel Entities fail to effect the Asset Closing when required by Section 3.2 of the Asset Purchase Agreement or the Closing when required by Section 2.3, in either case, for any or no reason or otherwise breach this Agreement or the Asset Purchase Agreement (whether willfully, intentionally, unintentionally or otherwise) prior to the Closing or fail to perform hereunder or thereunder (whether willfully, intentionally, unintentionally or otherwise) prior to the Closing, then, (i) the SunGard Entities’, the Company’s and their respective Affiliates’ sole and exclusive remedy (whether at law, in equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise) against the Datatel Entities, the Investors, and any of their respective former, current or future directors, officers, employees, direct or indirect equityholders, controlling persons, general or limited partners, stockholders, incorporators, Affiliates, Financing Sources, attorneys, representatives, agents, successors or assignees or any former, current or future director, officer, employee, direct or indirect equityholder, controlling person, general or limited partner, manager, member, stockholder, incorporator, Affiliate, attorney, representative, agent, successor or assignee of any of the foregoing (each a “Related Party” and collectively, the “Related Parties”) for any breach, loss or damage (“SunGard Damages”) shall be (x) the right of SunGard Data to terminate this Agreement and receive payment of the Parent Termination Fee pursuant to (and only to the extent expressly permitted by) Section 9.2(a) and (y) the right of the SunGard Entities and the Company to seek to enforce the obligations of the Datatel Entities and the Investors (as such term is defined in the Transaction Equity Financing Commitment) by a decree of specific performance and to seek temporary, preliminary and permanent injunctive relief to prevent breaches of such obligations as and only to the extent expressly permitted by Section 9.4, and (ii) except as provided in the immediately foregoing clause (i), none of the Related Parties will have any Liability to the SunGard Entities, the Company or any of their respective Affiliates relating to, arising out of and/or otherwise in connection with this Agreement, any of the Ancillary Agreements, the Financing Commitments or in respect of any other document or theory of law or equity or in respect of any oral representations made or alleged to be made in connection herewith or therewith, through any of the Datatel Entities or

 

86


otherwise, whether by or through attempted piercing of the corporate (or equivalent) veil, by or through a claim by or on behalf of any of the Datatel Entities against any other Related Party, by the enforcement of any assessment or by any legal or equitable proceeding, by virtue of any statute, regulation or other applicable Law, or otherwise. For the avoidance of doubt, while the SunGard Entities and the Company may pursue both a grant of specific performance to the extent expressly permitted by Section 9.4(b), Section 9.4(c), Section 9.4(d) and Section 9.4(e) and the payment of the Parent Termination Fee to the extent expressly permitted by Section 9.2(a), under no circumstances shall the SunGard Entities or the Company be permitted or entitled to receive both (x) a grant of specific performance to cause the Transaction Equity Financing to be funded, to consummate the Asset Closing and/or to consummate the Merger and (y) payment of the Parent Termination Fee (and/or a grant of specific performance to the extent expressly permitted by Section 9.4(e) with respect to the funding of the Termination Fee Equity Financing for the payment of the Parent Termination Fee). Upon payment of the Parent Termination Fee, none of the Related Parties shall have any further Liability to any of the SunGard Entities, the Company or any of their respective Affiliates relating to or arising out of this Agreement, any of the Ancillary Agreements, the Financing Commitments or in respect of any other agreement, document or theory of law or equity or in respect of any oral representations made or alleged to be made in connection herewith or therewith, whether at law or equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise, and none of the Related Parties shall have any further Liability to any of the SunGard Entities, the Company or any of their respective Affiliates relating to, arising out of and/or otherwise in connection with this Agreement, any of the Ancillary Agreements or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, except as otherwise expressly contemplated by (1)(A) the two penultimate sentences in Section 7.15(d), (B) the last sentence in Section 9.2(c) and (C) clause (b) of the proviso in Section 9.5 (or, in the alternative, Section 9.3 of the Asset Purchase Agreement), in each case with respect to Datatel and (2)(A) the penultimate sentence of Section 7.4(e)(i), (B) the third from last sentence of Section 7.4(h), and (C) the penultimate sentence of Section 3.1(b)(iii) of the Asset Purchase Agreement, in each case with respect to Parent.

(c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the maximum aggregate liability of the Datatel Entities (inclusive of any payment of the Parent Termination Fee) for all SunGard Damages shall be limited to the sum of one hundred twenty four million dollars ($124,000,000) plus any amounts payable under the penultimate sentence of Section 7.4(e)(i), the third from last sentence of Section 7.4(h), the two penultimate sentences of Section 7.15(d), the last sentence of Section 9.2(c), clause (b) of the proviso in Section 9.5 (or, in the alternative, Section 9.3 of the Asset Purchase Agreement) and the penultimate sentence of Section 3.1(b)(iii) of the Asset Purchase Agreement (such sum, the “Liability Limitation”), and in no event shall any of the SunGard Entities, the Company or any of their respective Affiliates seek any other SunGard Damages or any other recovery, judgment or damages of any kind, including consequential, indirect, or punitive damages, against any of the Datatel Entities or any of the other Related Parties in excess of the Liability Limitation in connection with this Agreement, any of the Ancillary Agreements, any of the Financing Commitments or any of the Transactions.

(a) The Parties agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement and the Asset Purchase Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached and that any breach of this Agreement or the Asset Purchase Agreement could not be adequately compensated in all cases by monetary damages alone. Except as otherwise set forth in this Section 9.4, including the limitations set forth in Section 9.4(b), Section 9.4(c), Section 9.4(d) and Section 9.4(e), the Parties acknowledge and agree that, (i) prior to the valid termination of this Agreement pursuant

For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall the SunGard Entities or the Company be entitled to enforce or seek to enforce specifically Sophia Holding I’s right to cause the Transaction Equity Financing to be funded at the Asset Closing or Parent’s and Purchaser Company’s obligation to complete the Asset Closing or the Closing if the Debt Financing has not been funded (or will not be funded at the Asset Closing if the Transaction Equity Financing is funded at the Asset Closing) (if the Note Escrow Closing occurs, for purposes hereof the Notes will not be deemed to have been funded unless and until the proceeds of the Notes are released from escrow for purposes of funding in part the Transactions).

(c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary other than the immediately following sentence of this Section 9.4(c), it is acknowledged and agreed that the SunGard Entities and the Company shall be entitled to specific performance of (x) Sophia Holding I’s right to cause the Transaction Equity Financing, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Transaction Equity Financing Commitment, to be funded at the Closing, and its obligation to issue to each of the Investors the Subject Equity Securities (as such term is defined

 

88


in the Transaction Equity Financing Commitment) and (y) Parent’s and Merger Sub’s obligation to consummate the Merger, in the case of the foregoing clauses (x) and (y), only in the event that each of the following conditions has been satisfied: (i) the Asset Purchase Agreement has terminated pursuant to Section 9.1(b) thereof, (ii) all of the conditions set forth in Section 8.1 and Section 8.3 have been satisfied (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied by actions taken at the Closing, but subject to such conditions being satisfied at the Closing), and Parent and Merger Sub fail to complete the Closing by the date the Closing is required to have occurred pursuant to Section 2.3, (iii) the Debt Financing (or, if alternative financing is being used in accordance with Section 7.15, pursuant to the commitments with respect thereto) has been funded or will be funded at the Closing if the Transaction Equity Financing is funded at the Closing (if the Note Escrow Closing occurs, for purposes hereof the Notes will not be deemed to have been funded unless and until the proceeds of the Notes are released from escrow for purposes of funding in part the Transactions), and (iv) each of the SunGard Entities and the Company has irrevocably confirmed in a written notice delivered to the Datatel Entities and Parent’s sources of Debt Financing that if specific performance is granted and the Transaction Equity Financing and Debt Financing are funded, the SunGard Entities and the Company will consummate the Closing. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any of the Ancillary Agreements or the Transaction Equity Financing Commitments, if the Asset Closing has occurred, it is acknowledged and agreed that the SunGard Entities and the Company shall be entitled to specific performance of Parent’s and Merger Sub’s obligation pursuant to Section 3.6 of the Asset Purchase Agreement to contribute into the Escrow Account on the day of the Asset Closing an amount equal to the Estimated Merger Consideration and to consummate the Merger on the date the Closing is required to occur pursuant to Section 2.3 without limitation. For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall the SunGard Entities or the Company be entitled to enforce or seek to enforce specifically Sophia Holding I’s right to cause the Transaction Equity Financing to be funded at the Closing or Parent’s or Merger Sub’s obligation to complete the Merger if the Debt Financing has not been funded (or will not be funded at the Closing if the Transaction Equity Financing is funded at the Closing) (if the Note Escrow Closing occurs, for purposes hereof the Notes will not be deemed to have been funded unless and until the proceeds of the Notes are released from escrow for purposes of funding in part the Transactions).

Promptly (but in no event later than ten (10) days) after the receipt by any Indemnified Party of a notice of any Action by any third party that may be subject to indemnification under this Article X, such Indemnified Party shall give written notice of such Action to the indemnifying Party hereunder (the “Indemnifying Party”), stating in reasonable detail the nature and basis of each claim made in the Action and, to the extent known, the amount thereof along with copies of the relevant documents received by the Indemnified Party evidencing the Action and the basis for indemnification sought. Failure of the Indemnified Party to give such notice shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party from liability on account of this indemnification, except if and only to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced thereby. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to assume the defense of the Indemnified Party against the third party claim upon written notice to the Indemnified Party delivered within thirty (30) days after receipt of the particular notice from the Indemnified Party; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to assume the defense of the third party claim if it (w) seeks as a remedy the imposition of an equitable remedy that is binding upon any Datatel Entity or any of its Affiliates (including the Surviving Corporation or its Subsidiaries), (x) involves alleged criminal liabilities of the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates, (y) is subject to indemnification pursuant to Section 10.1(a)(i) and the amount at issue in such claim (together with all pending and previously

 

93


resolved claims subject to indemnification pursuant to Section 10.1(a)(i)) is less than the Threshold or (z) is subject to a limitation set forth in Section 10.2(a) and the amount at issue in such claim (together with all other pending and previously resolved claims subject to the same limitation set forth in Section 10.2(a) as such claim) that would not be subject to indemnification pursuant to this Article X as a result of the application of such limitation set forth in Section 10.2(a) is greater than the amount at issue that would be subject to indemnification after application of such limitation set forth in Section 10.2(a). So long as the Indemnifying Party has assumed the defense of, and diligently defends, the third party claim in accordance herewith and notified the Indemnified Party in writing thereof, (i) the Indemnified Party may retain separate co-counsel at its sole cost and expense and participate in the defense of the third party claim, (provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall pay all reasonable costs and expenses of counsel for the Indemnified Party (A) after such time as the Indemnified Party has notified the Indemnifying Party of such third party claim and prior to such time as the Indemnifying Party has notified the Indemnified Party that it has assumed the defense of such third party claim or (B) if both the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party are named parties to the proceedings and the Indemnified Party shall have concluded in good faith, based on advice from counsel, that representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them or the availability to the Indemnified Party of one or more defenses or counterclaims that are inconsistent with one or more of those that may be available to the Indemnifying Party in respect thereof; provided, further, that in no event shall the Indemnifying Party be responsible for the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for all Indemnified Parties), (ii) the Indemnified Party shall not file any papers or consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the third party claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) and (iii) the Indemnifying Party will not consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the third party claim (other than a judgment or settlement that (A) is on exclusively monetary terms with such monetary amounts paid by the Indemnifying Party concurrently with the effectiveness of the settlement, (B) does not involve any finding or admission of violation of Law or admission of wrongdoing by the Indemnified Party, and (C) provides a complete and unconditional release of, or dismissal with prejudice of, all claims against any Indemnified Party potentially affected by such third party claim for all matters that were or could have been asserted in connection with such claim) without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). Whether or not the Indemnifying Party shall have assumed the defense, such Indemnifying Party shall not be obligated to indemnify and hold harmless the Indemnified Party hereunder for any settlement entered into without the Indemnifying Party’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of this Section 10.3(a) shall not apply to any Tax Claim, which shall be governed solely by Section 7.4.

(b) Procedures for Other Claims. An Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Indemnifying Party in writing of any pending or threatened claim or demand (other than a third party claim) that the Indemnified Party has determined has given or could reasonably give rise to a right of indemnification under this Agreement, describing in reasonable detail, to the extent known by the Indemnified Party, the facts and circumstances with respect to the subject matter of such claim; provided, however, that the failure to provide such notice shall not release any Indemnifying Party from any of its obligations under this Agreement except to the extent such

 

94


Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure. In the event the Indemnifying Party receives a notice of a claim for indemnity from an Indemnified Party pursuant to this Section 10.3(b), the Indemnifying Party shall notify the Indemnified Party within thirty (30) days following their receipt of such notice if the Indemnifying Party disputes its liability to the Indemnified Party under this Agreement. If the Indemnifying Party does not so notify the Indemnified Party, the claim specified by the Indemnified Party in such notice shall be conclusively deemed to be a liability of the Indemnifying Party under this Agreement, and the Indemnifying Party shall pay, subject to the limitations identified in this Agreement, if applicable, the amount of such liability to the Indemnified Party on demand or, in the case of any notice in which the amount of the claim (or any portion of the claim) is estimated, on such later date when the amount of such claim (or such portion of such claim) becomes finally determined. If the Indemnifying Party disputes all or a portion of the claim from an Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall use good faith efforts to resolve such dispute. If such dispute is not resolved within 30 days following the delivery by the Indemnifying Party of its notice of dispute, the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall each have the right to submit such dispute to a court of competent jurisdiction in accordance with the provisions of Section 11.5.

(c) Treatment of Indemnification Payments; Insurance Recoveries; Tax Benefit. Any payment made pursuant to the indemnification obligations arising under this Agreement (including Section 7.4) shall be treated as an adjustment to the Merger Consideration or Purchase Price, as applicable and shall be (i) increased to reflect any net Tax cost to the Indemnified Party arising from receipt of the indemnity payment (grossed up for such increase) and (ii) reduced to reflect any reduction in Tax as a result of an indemnified Loss at the time such reduction is actually realized by the Indemnified Party (determined on a with-and-without basis and by assuming any Tax benefit item in respect of the Loss will be used after any other Tax benefit item otherwise available to the Indemnified Party, provided however that any Tax benefits arising in respect of Parent’s indemnity obligations under Section 7.4(d)(ii)(C) or Section 7.4(d)(ii)(D) shall be taken immediately into account in determining the net Tax cost pursuant to (i)). Any indemnity payment under this Agreement shall be decreased by any amounts actually recovered by the Indemnified Party under third party insurance policies with respect to such Loss (net of the expenses incurred in procuring such recovery and any premiums or other chargebacks paid by such Indemnified Party under the relevant insurance policy and any Taxes imposed on the proceeds of such policy). Each Party agrees (i) to use all reasonable efforts to recover all available insurance proceeds and (ii) to the extent that any indemnity payment under this Agreement has been paid by the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party prior to the recovery by the Indemnified Party of such insurance proceeds, to promptly pay to the Indemnifying Party such amounts actually recovered by the Indemnified Party.

Section 10.4 Remedies Exclusive; Mitigation. Following the Closing, with the exception of remedies based on fraud, the remedies set forth in this Article X and Section 7.4 and Article X of the Asset Purchase Agreement shall constitute the sole and exclusive remedy for money damages and shall be in lieu of any other remedies for money damages that may be available to the Indemnified Parties under any other agreement or pursuant to any statutory or common law with respect to any Losses of any kind or nature incurred directly or indirectly resulting from or arising out of this Agreement or the Asset Purchase Agreement (it being understood that nothing in this Section 10.4 or elsewhere in this Agreement or the Asset

 

95


Purchase Agreement shall affect the Parties’ rights (a) to specific performance and other non-monetary equitable remedies with respect to the covenants referred to in this Agreement and the Asset Purchase Agreement to be performed after the Asset Closing and the Closing or (b) under any of the other Ancillary Agreements (other than the Asset Purchase Agreement)). Each Party shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate and minimize its Losses that are indemnifiable hereunder. Each of the Parties hereby waives any provision of any applicable Law to the extent that it would limit or restrict the agreements contained in this Section 10.4.

Section 11.2 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts (including by facsimile or by an electronic scan delivered by electronic mail), all of which will be considered one and the same agreement and will become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each Party and delivered to the other Parties, it being understood that all the Parties need not sign the same counterpart.

Section 11.3 Entire Agreement; No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements (including the Exhibits and the Schedules hereto and thereto), together with the Confidentiality Agreement, constitutes the entire agreement among the Parties hereto and supersedes any prior understandings, agreements or representations by or among the Parties hereto, written or oral, to the extent they related in any way to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement will not confer any rights or remedies upon any Person other than the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns, other than: (a) Section 7.9, Section 9.3(b) and Section 9.3(c) (which will be for the benefit of the Persons (including, with respect to Section 9.3(b) and Section 9.3(c), the Financing Sources) set forth therein, and any such Persons will have the rights provided for therein); (b) Section 11.5 and Section 11.6 (which shall be for the benefit of, among others, the Financing Sources, and the Financing Sources, among others, will have the rights provided for therein); (c) Article X (which shall be for the benefit of the Datatel Indemnified Parties and the SunGard Indemnified Parties, and the Datatel Indemnified Parties and the SunGard Indemnified Parties will have the rights provide for therein); and (d) this Article XI in respect of the Sections set forth under the foregoing clauses (a), (b) and (c).

Section 11.4 Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations under this Agreement will be assigned, in whole or in part, by operation of Law or otherwise, by any of the Parties without the prior written consent of the other Parties, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, except that each of the Datatel Entities may assign, in its sole discretion, any or all of its rights, interests or obligations under this Agreement to any one or more of their Affiliates (it being understood that, for purposes of this Section 11.4, Datatel and its Subsidiaries shall be deemed to be Affiliates of each of the other Datatel Entities); provided that no such assignment will relieve the assigning Party from any of its obligations hereunder. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the Parties and their respective successors and assigns.

Section 11.5 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without giving effect to the principles of conflicts of law thereof or of any other jurisdiction which would require the application of any other State’s laws (provided that the Merger shall be governed by the DGCL). Each of the Parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally (a) submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of any New York State court or Federal court of the United States of America sitting in New York County, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the Financing Commitments or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding shall be heard and determined in such New York State court or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court, (b) waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of

 

98


or relating to this Agreement, the Asset Purchase Agreement, the Financing Commitments or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby in any New York State or in any such Federal court, (c) waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court and (d) agrees that a final judgment in any such suit, action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other matter provided by law. Each of the Parties hereto agrees that service of process, summons, notice or document by registered mail addressed to you or us at the addresses set forth in Section 11.1 shall be effective service of process for any suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court. Each of the Parties hereto agrees that that the submissions, waivers and agreements in this Section 11.5 shall extend to any action or proceeding that involves any Financing Source.

Section 11.6 Waiver of Jury Trial. Each of the Parties hereby waives to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law any right it may have to a trial by jury with respect to any litigation directly or indirectly arising out of, under or in connection with this Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements, the Financing Commitments or the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including the Merger and the Financing. Each of the Parties (a) certifies that no Representative, agent or attorney of any other Party has represented, expressly or otherwise, that such other Party would not, in the event of litigation, seek to enforce the foregoing waiver, (b) acknowledges that it and the other Parties have been induced to enter into this Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements and the Merger, as applicable, by, among other things, the mutual waivers and certifications in this Section 11.6 and (c) agrees that such waivers and certifications shall extend to the Financing Sources.

Section 11.7 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable under any present or future Law (a) such provision will be fully severable, (b) this Agreement will be construed and enforced as if such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision had never comprised a part hereof, (c) the remaining provisions of this Agreement will remain in full force and effect and will not be affected by the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision or by its severance herefrom and (d) in lieu of such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision, there will be added automatically as a part of this Agreement a legal, valid and enforceable provision as similar in terms of such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision as may be possible; provided that the Parties intend that the remedies and limitations thereon (including provisions that payment of the Parent Termination Fee be the exclusive remedy for the recipient thereof as provided under Section 9.3(b), except for the right of the SunGard Entities and the Company to seek an injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief pursuant to, and only to the extent expressly permitted by, Section 9.4) contained in Article IX to be construed as an integral provision of this Agreement and that such remedies and limitations shall not be severable in any manner that increases a party’s liability or obligations hereunder or under the Financing Commitments.

Section 11.8 Headings. Headings of the Articles and Sections of this Agreement are for convenience of the Parties only, and will be given no substantive or interpretive effect whatsoever.

Section 11.9 Amendment. This Agreement may be amended by the Parties at any time before or after the Stockholder Approvals; provided, however, that after the Stockholder

 

99


Approvals there shall not be made any amendment that by Law requires further approval by the stockholders of the Company or Merger Sub without the further approval of such stockholders. This Agreement may not be amended except by an instrument in writing signed on behalf of each of the Parties.

Section 11.10 Extension; Waiver. At any time prior to the Effective Time, the Parties may (a) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the other Parties, (b) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or in any document delivered pursuant to this Agreement or (c) waive compliance with any of the agreements or conditions contained in this Agreement. Any agreement on the part of a Party to any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing, signed on behalf of such Party. The failure of any Party to assert any of its rights under this Agreement or otherwise shall not constitute a waiver of those rights.

Section 11.11 Non-Recourse. This Agreement may only be enforced against, and any claim or clause of action based upon, arising out of, or related to this Agreement may only be brought against the entities that are expressly named as Parties hereto and then only with respect to the specific obligations set forth herein with respect to such Party. No past, present or future director, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partner, stockholder, Affiliate, agent, attorney or representative of any Party or any assignee of the foregoing shall have any Liability for any obligations or Liabilities of any Party under this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements or for any claim (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) based on, in respect of, or by reason of, the Transactions or in respect of any oral representations made or alleged to be made in connection herewith or therewith.

Section 11.12 Interpretation. Words herein in the singular shall be held to include the plural and vice versa and words of one gender shall be held to include the other genders as the context requires. The terms “hereof,” “herein,” and “herewith” and words of similar import herein (or in any Ancillary Agreement) shall, unless otherwise stated, be construed to refer to this Agreement (or the applicable Ancillary Agreement) taken as a whole (including all of the schedules and exhibits hereto and thereto) and not to any particular provision of this Agreement (or such Ancillary Agreement). Article, Section, Exhibit, Schedule and Appendix references are to the Articles, Sections, Exhibits, Schedules and Appendices to this Agreement (or the applicable Ancillary Agreement) unless otherwise specified. The terms “either” and “or” are not exclusive and the word “including” and words of similar import when used in this Agreement (or the applicable Ancillary Agreement) means “including, without limitation,” References to “$” or otherwise to dollar amounts refer to the lawful currency of the United States.

The Parties have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement, and in the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the Parties, and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party hereto by virtue of the authorship of any provisions of this Agreement.
