1.3 Term. The term of this Agreement (the “Term”) shall commence on the date hereof and shall expire one year after the effective date of the Distribution (the “Distribution Date”); provided, however, that either party shall have the right to terminate any or all of the services such party is to receive hereunder and cease paying the services fee associated with the terminated services which such party would otherwise be required to pay therefor upon 30 days written notice to the other party, and provided, further, that at the end of the one-year term, if the parties have not terminated the agreement earlier, either party may renew or extend the term of the agreement with respect to the provision of any services for which that party has not previously terminated the other party’s provision or support thereof, however, neither party shall have any obligation to renew or extend the term of this agreement with respect to any services at the services fees established in the initial term of this agreement.

1.4 Additional Services. At any time during the Term, if either party identifies any service that is needed to assure a smooth and orderly transition of the businesses and operations in connection with the Separation and

the Distribution, and that is not otherwise governed by the provisions of this Agreement, the Separation Agreement or any other agreement between the parties, then the parties shall cooperate in determining whether there is a mutually acceptable arm’s-length basis on which one of the parties will provide such service to the other party in exchange for a fee.
