SERVICES, FACILITIES AND DURATION

Section 2.01    Services; Facilities. Subject to and in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, from and after the Effective Time each Party, as a Provider, shall provide (or cause

to be provided) to the other Party, as a Recipient, its respective Services and Facilities as set forth on the schedules to this Agreement.

Section 2.02    Compliance with Laws. Each Party agrees to comply, and to cause its Group to comply, with all Laws applicable to the provision, receipt or use of the Services and Facilities.

Section 2.03    Duration of Services and Facilities. Subject to Section 6.01 hereof, each Party, as a Provider, shall provide or cause to be provided to the respective Recipient each Service or Facility until the expiration of the period set forth next to such Service or Facility on the applicable schedules hereto or, if no such period is provided with respect to a particular Service or Facility, on the first day prior to the second anniversary of the Effective Date (in each case, the “Term”); provided, however, to the extent that a Provider’s ability to provide a Service or Facility, as the case may be, is dependent on the Recipient’s provision of data, Services, Facilities or other resources, the Provider’s obligation to provide, or cause to be provided, such Service or Facility shall be suspended until such time as the dependencies are met or provided.

Section 2.04    Additional Services and Additional Facilities. If, within six (6) months after the Effective Date, either Party identifies a service or facilities, equipment or software not included on a schedule and that the other Party provided during the twelve-month period prior to the Effective Date that the Party reasonably needs in order for its Business to continue to operate in substantially the same manner in which the Business operated prior to the Effective Date, then each Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide, or cause to be provided (on terms to be agreed upon), such requested services (such additional services, the “Additional Services”) and/or facilities, equipment or software (the “Additional Facilities”). The Parties shall amend, in a writing signed by both Parties, the appropriate schedule to include such Additional Services or Additional Facilities (including the terms thereof and the termination date with respect thereto, which, for clarity, shall be no later than the end of the Term) and such Additional Services and Additional Facilities shall be deemed Services or Facilities, as applicable. Accordingly, the Party requested to provide such Additional Services or Additional Facilities shall provide, or cause to be provided, such Additional Services or Additional Facilities in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

Section 2.05    Exception to Obligation to Provide Services or Facilities. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, no Provider shall be obligated to provide any Services or Facilities if the provision of such Services or Facilities would violate any Law or any currently existing Contract to which the Provider or its Group are subject; provided, however, that each Party shall comply with Section 7.02 in obtaining any Consents necessary to provide such Services or Facilities.

Section 2.06    Standard of the Provision of Services or Facilities. The provision of Services and Facilities shall be provided in a commercially reasonable manner with the nature, quality, standard of care and at levels substantially consistent with the levels at which the same or similar services or access were provided by the applicable Provider during the twelve-month period immediately preceding the Effective Date. All of a Provider’s Services and Facilities shall be for the sole use and benefit of the Recipient.

Section 2.07    Change in Services or Facilities.

(a)The Provider may from time to time reasonably supplement, modify, substitute or otherwise alter the Services and Facilities provided in a manner that does not materially adversely affect the quality or availability of Services or Facilities or increase the Service Charges to the Recipient of such Services or Facilities. Subject to Section 2.07(b) and Section 2.07(c), if any such change by the Provider reasonably requires the Recipient to incur an increase in costs and expenses, to continue to receive and utilize the applicable Services or Facilities, the Provider shall be required to reimburse the Recipient for all such reasonable increases in costs and expenses. Upon request, the Recipient shall provide the Provider with reasonable documentation, to the extent such documentation is in the Recipient’s possession or control, to support the calculation of such increase in costs and expenses.

(b)If a change in Laws applicable to the Provider or the Recipient requires the Provider to make a change to the Services or Facilities or reasonably to incur additional costs and expenses in connection with providing such Services or Facilities, the Provider shall advise the Recipient as soon as reasonably practicable of such additional costs and expenses. Upon request, the Provider shall provide the Recipient with reasonable documentation, to the extent such documentation is in the Provider’s possession or control, to support the calculation of such additional costs and expenses. The Provider and Recipient will work together in good faith and make such changes as reasonably necessary to minimize any such additional costs and expenses. Subject to the foregoing, the Recipient shall be responsible for any and all such reasonably-incurred additional costs and expenses.

(c)If the Provider is required to (i) increase staffing, (ii) acquire, lease or license additional facilities, equipment or software, (iii) engage in significant capital expenditures or (iv) apply for or obtain additional third party Consents (other than renewals of any preexisting permits, licenses or authorizations) (clauses (i) to (iv), collectively, the “Service Changes”) in order to accommodate an increase in the use or level of any Service or Facilities by the Recipient, then the Provider shall inform the Recipient in writing of the Service Change and propose a plan for implementing the Service Change, in all cases to the extent practicable, before incurring any costs or expenses resulting from such Service Change. The Parties shall negotiate in good faith and mutually agree to adjust or change the Services and/or Facilities, including the Service Charges, if necessary, before the Provider is required to undertake any Service Change. If the Parties determine that the Provider shall undertake such Service Change, then the Parties shall amend the appropriate schedule in writing to include such Service Changes, and the Service Changes shall be deemed Services or Facilities hereunder. Accordingly, the Party requested to provide such Services or Facilities as amended by the Service Changes shall provide such Services, or cause such Services to be provided, in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement at the agreed upon cost.

(d)A Recipient may from time to time request a reduction in part of the scope or amount of any Service or Facility. If requested to do so by the Recipient, the Provider agrees to negotiate in good faith appropriate reductions to the relevant Service Charges in light of all

relevant factors including the costs and benefits to the Provider of any such reductions. The relevant schedule shall be updated to reflect any reduced Service or Facility agreed to in writing by the Parties. In the event that any Service or Facility is so reduced other than at the end of a month, the Service Charge associated with such Service or Facility for the month in which such Service or Facility is reduced shall be pro-rated accordingly.

Section 2.08    Subcontractors. A Provider may subcontract any of the Services or portion thereof to any other Person, including any Affiliate of the Provider; provided, however, that such other Person shall be subject to service standards and confidentiality provisions at least equivalent to those set forth herein, and such Provider shall in all cases remain primarily responsible for all of its obligations hereunder with respect to the Services provided by such subcontractor.

Section 2.09    Electronic Access. Each Party (the “Accessing Party”) agrees that, to the extent the other Party (the “Providing Party”) provides access to the Provider Systems or the Recipient Systems, as applicable, to the Accessing Party or the Accessing Party’s Affiliates in connection with the provision or receipt of Services hereunder, the Accessing Party shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, use such Provider Systems or Recipient Systems, as applicable, only to the extent necessary to access such data, documents, drawings and computer software necessary to provide or receive the Services, and that such access and use shall be subject to such other restrictions on access or use as the Providing Party may reasonably require. The Accessing Party shall not, and shall not permit its Affiliates to, access any other data, documents, drawings or computer software, other than to such extent as may be required in order to use or receive the benefit of the Services (or as agreed in writing between the Parties). This restriction applies to viewing, approving and modifying of data. In providing and receiving information technology Services, the Providing Party shall have the right to implement, and the Accessing Party shall agree to and abide by, reasonable processes and controls under which there will be no greater threat to the Providing Party’s information technology operating environment than would exist in the absence of the provision or receipt of such Services, including: (i) requiring adherence to the Providing Party’s standard network security agreement, other policies directed to network security and other actions as are required to comply with Law; (ii) implementing technical and administrative safeguards to protect data and information, including industry-standard virus protection software, maintaining existing environments with respect to business continuation and disaster recovery and implementing disaster recovery plans; and (iii) providing, installing and maintaining network locations and telecommunications lines and equipment required to access such locations. The Parties shall, and shall cause their respective Providers to, exercise reasonable care in providing, accessing and using the Services and Facilities to prevent access to the Services and Facilities by unauthorized Persons.

Section 2.10    Telecommunications Matters. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement, the Parties acknowledge and agree that with respect to all telecommunications Services provided under this Agreement (as are specifically designated on the applicable portion of the schedule), each Provider is only acting to pass through such Services from the applicable telecommunications service vendor and shall not be deemed to be providing such telecommunications Services to Recipient or any of its Personnel.

Section 2.11    Intellectual Property License.

(a)Strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and without affecting the rights and obligations of the Parties in the Separation Agreement and the Intellectual Property Matters Agreement, with respect to each of the Services:

(i)Each Recipient hereby grants to each Provider, and each Provider hereby accepts, a non-exclusive, non-transferable (subject to Section 8.07), worldwide right during the Term to access and use the Recipient Systems only to the extent necessary and for the sole purpose of performing the Provider’s obligations under this Agreement, and not for any other purpose; and

(ii)Each Provider hereby grants to each Recipient, and each Recipient hereby accepts, a non-exclusive, non-transferable (subject to Section 8.07), worldwide right during the Term to access and use the Provider Systems only to the extent necessary and for the sole purpose of performing the Recipient’s obligations under this Agreement, and not for any other purpose.

(b)For clarity, the limited rights to use the Recipient Systems and Provider Systems granted in this Section 2.11(a) for each of the Services will terminate at the end of the applicable Term and will under no circumstances survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement.

(c)Subject to the limited licenses in this Section 2.11, and unless the Parties expressly agree otherwise in the schedules to this Agreement or in a separate written agreement, each Party shall exclusively own any Intellectual Property that it creates, develops or invents in connection with the provision of any Services under this Agreement.

ARTICLE III

COSTS AND DISBURSEMENTS

Section 3.01    Costs and Disbursements.

(a)Each Recipient shall pay to the Provider a fee for the applicable Service or Facility as set forth therefor in the schedules, and with respect to an Additional Service or Additional Facility, the fee shall be the applicable Provider’s internal and external costs and expenses of providing such Additional Services or Additional Facilities as agreed between the Parties (each aggregate fee calculated in accordance with this provision constituting a “Service Charge” and, collectively, the “Service Charges”); provided, however, that any monthly fee for a Service or Facility not provided or made available hereunder for a full month shall be prorated for the portion of such month provided or made available. Except as set forth on a schedule hereto, and subject to Section 2.07, during the Term, the amount of a Service Charge for any Services or Facilities shall not increase, except to the extent that there is an increase after the Effective Date in the costs actually incurred by the Provider in providing such Services or Facilities as a result of (i) an increase in the rates or charges imposed by any third-party provider that is providing goods or services used by the Provider in providing the Services or Facilities (as compared to the rates or charges

underlying a Service Charge), or (ii) an increase in the payroll or benefits (including any retention payments) for any personnel used by the Provider in providing the Services or Facilities.

(b)Parent shall, or shall cause SWNA and SWI PH to, deliver invoices generated by Netsuite to SpinCo in accordance with the terms hereof, beginning with the period beginning on the Effective Date and ending July 31, 2021 and, thereafter, on a monthly basis, on or prior to fifteenth day following the end of each succeeding month (in accordance with the terms hereof) for the duration of this Agreement (or at such other frequency as is consistent with the basis on which the Service Charges are determined) in arrears for the Service Charges due under this Agreement, together with such supporting documentation for the costs set forth in such invoices as may reasonably be requested by SpinCo to enable SpinCo to allocate the costs set forth in such invoices. For the avoidance of doubt, (i) such invoice issued by SWNA shall set forth Service Charges by Parent or Parent Providers offset by the Service Charges by SpinCo or SpinCo Providers; (ii) such invoice issued by SWI PH shall include Service Charges by Parent or Parent Providers without an offset by the Service Charges by SpinCo or SpinCo Providers; and (iii) SpinCo shall not issue an invoice to Parent. To the extent the Service Charges by Parent or Parent Providers set forth on an invoice exceed the Service Charges by SpinCo or SpinCo Providers, Parent shall pay, or cause to be paid, the amount of such invoice in accordance with the terms hereof and to the extent the Service Charges by SpinCo or SpinCo Providers set forth on an invoice exceed the Service Charges by Parent or Parent Providers, SpinCo shall pay, or cause to be paid, the amount of such invoice in accordance with the terms hereof. Each Party shall pay, or cause to be paid, the amount of such invoice by wire transfer or check to the other Party (or its designees) within thirty (30) days of the date of such invoice; providedthat (i) any Contracts that prescribe other payment terms for any other individual Service or Facility shall continue to govern under the terms of such Contracts; and (ii) to the extent consistent with past practice with respect to Services or Facilities rendered outside the United States, payments may be required in local currency. If either Party fails to pay such amount by such date, such Party shall be obligated to pay to the other Party, in addition to the amount due, a late interest payment charge calculated at the annual rate equal to the “Prime Rate” as reported on the thirtieth day after the date of the invoice in The Wall Street Journal (or, if such day is not a business day, the first business day immediately after such day), calculated on the basis of a year of 360 days and the actual number of days elapsed between the end of the thirty (30)-day payment period and the actual payment date, shall immediately begin to accrue and any such late payment interest charges shall become immediately due and payable in addition to the amount otherwise owed under this Agreement.

Section 3.02    No Right to Set-Off. Except as provided in Section 3.01(b), no Party shall be permitted to set-off, counterclaim or otherwise withhold any amount owed to the other Party under this Agreement on account of any obligation owed by the other Party that has not been finally adjudicated, settled or otherwise agreed upon by the Parties in writing; provided, however, that each Party shall be permitted to assert a set-off right with respect to any obligation that has been so finally adjudicated, settled or otherwise agreed upon by the Parties in writing against amounts owed by the other Party under this Agreement.

Section 3.03    Taxes. The Service Charges charged under this Agreement do not include any sales, use, value added, goods and services or similar Taxes (“Sales Taxes”) that may be imposed in connection with the Services or Facilities provided hereunder. In addition to the Service Charges, the Recipient shall pay and be responsible for and shall reimburse the Provider for any

Sales Taxes imposed in connection with any Services or Facilities provided to the Recipient hereunder; provided that the Recipient shall not be obligated to reimburse the Provider for such Sales Taxes if, and to the extent that, the Recipient has provided valid certificates or other applicable documentation that would eliminate or reduce the obligation of the Provider to collect and/or pay such Sales Taxes under Law; provided further, that the Provider shall identify separately, state on the invoice therefor, properly and timely collect from the Recipient, and remit as required by Law any such Sales Taxes, and shall provide a valid value added invoice for Taxes with respect to any such value added Sales Taxes, which invoice shall include information reasonably sufficient to verify that such Taxes have been paid or are payable in connection with the Services; and provided further, that each of the Recipient and the Provider shall be responsible for (a) any real or personal property Taxes on property it owns or leases; (b) franchise, margin, privilege and similar Taxes on its business; (c) the employment Taxes or contributions imposed on it or required from it with respect to its employees; and (d) Taxes based on its income, gross receipts or capital. Each Party shall cooperate and take any reasonably requested action in order to minimize any Sales Taxes, including providing any applicable sales and use Tax exemption certificates or other documentation necessary to support the characterization of Services and Facilities and any available explicit exemptions. Each Party agrees to provide to the other such information and data as reasonably requested from time to time and, at the request and expense of the requesting party, to fully cooperate, in connection with (i) the reporting of any Sales Taxes applicable to the Services; (ii) any audit relating to any such Sales Taxes; or (iii) any assessment, refund, claim or proceeding relating to any such Sales Taxes. The Recipient shall control any audit assessment, refund, claim, or proceeding in relation to such Sales Taxes. If the Recipient is required to withhold any Taxes from any amounts otherwise due and payable to the Provider pursuant to this Agreement, such amounts shall be timely remitted to the applicable taxing authority to the extent required by applicable Law and shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the relevant Person in respect of which such withholding was made.

Section 3.04    Records and Audits.

(a)Each Party shall, in accordance with applicable Law, maintain complete and accurate records of all books, records, receipts, invoices, reports, and other documents and information relating to the Services and Facilities provided under this Agreement in accordance with its standard accounting practices and procedures. The Provider shall retain such books, records, receipts, invoices and other documents and information and make them reasonably available, during ordinary business hours, to the Recipient and its auditors for a period of three (3) years from the close of each fiscal year of the Provider during which Services or Facilities were provided, for the purposes of verifying invoices submitted with respect to the provision of Services and Facilities or in connection with an external audit of the Recipient. As and when so reasonably requested by the Recipient for purposes of verifying invoices submitted to Recipient pursuant to Section 3.01, in connection with an external audit of the Recipient, or by a Governmental Entity, the

Provider will permit an inspection wherein the Provider will (a) make books and records concerning such invoices and the Services and Facilities available for inspection by such Persons as the Recipient designates as its authorized representatives; and (b) give Recipient’s authorized representatives reasonable access during regular business hours to facilities, officers, employees and other representatives of the Provider. If a third-party audit conducted by the Recipient determines that the Provider has overcharged the Recipient for Services or Facilities, Provider promptly will credit (or, if the Provider has ceased providing the relevant Services or Facilities such that the Recipient could not reasonably be expected to consume the credit balance under this Agreement, then the Provider promptly will refund) the Recipient for the amount of the overcharge plus interest thereon at a rate equal to the “Prime Rate” as reported on the date of payment in The Wall Street Journal (or, if such day is not a business day, the first business day immediately after such day), calculated on the basis of a year of 360 days and the actual number of days elapsed between the end of the original payment date and the date the amount is credited or refunded. The costs of the audit will be borne by the Recipient, and upon request the audit may be made available to the Provider.

(b)With respect to each Service, unless otherwise requested in writing by the Recipient, for the duration that each Service is provided under this Agreement: (i) the Provider will continue to operate the controls and perform the corresponding testing for such Service in the same manner as is performed as of the date of this Agreement; and (ii) the Provider will ensure the Recipient specific transaction remain in testing populations for Service applicable controls, such that transactions will be eligible for selection and testing by the internal audit function in respect of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. The Provider will promptly notify the Recipient of any control deficiencies or changes to controls. In the event that the Provider reasonably determines that look-back procedures will be required for audit testing exceptions, the Provider will provide the Recipient a reasonable opportunity to evaluate the impact of such procedures.

party agreement to provide Services or Facilities) or (B) if the Provider has failed to perform any of its material obligations under this Agreement with respect to such Service or Facility, and such failure shall continue uncured for a period of thirty (30) days after receipt by the Provider of written notice of such failure (unless such failure is subject to a good faith dispute between the Parties); or

(ii)    a Provider may terminate this Agreement with respect to one or more Services or Facilities, in whole but not in part, at any time upon providing at least sixty (60) days’ prior written notice to the Recipient, if the Recipient has failed to perform

any of its material obligations under this Agreement relating to such Services or Facilities, and such failure shall continue uncured for a period of thirty (30) days after receipt by Recipient of a written notice of such failure (unless such failure is subject to a good faith dispute between the Parties).

(c)    In connection with the termination of any Service or Facility, the provisions of this Agreement not relating solely to such terminated Service or Facility shall survive any such termination, and in connection with a termination of this Agreement, Article I, Article IV, Article V, this Article VI, Article VII, Article VIII, and Liability for all due and unpaid Service Charges shall continue to survive indefinitely.

Section 6.03    Force Majeure.

(a)    No Party (or any Person acting on its behalf) shall have any Liability or responsibility for failure to fulfill any obligation (other than a payment obligation) under this Agreement so long as and to the extent to which the fulfillment of such obligation is prevented, frustrated, hindered or delayed as a consequence of circumstances of Force Majeure; provided that (i) such Party shall have exercised commercially reasonable efforts to minimize the effect of Force Majeure on its obligations; and (ii) the nature, quality and standard of care of the Services and/or Facilities provided by the Provider after a Force Majeure shall be substantially the same as the nature, quality and standard of care that the Provider provides prior thereto.

(b)    If, as a result of a Force Majeure, a suspension of Services or Facilities shall continue or be expected to continue for a period of at least thirty (30) days, during the period thereof, the Recipient shall be (i) entitled to seek at Recipient’s cost an alternative provider of such Services or Facilities, (ii) entitled to permanently terminate such Services or Facilities and (iii) relieved of the obligation to pay Service Charges for the provision of such Services or Facilities throughout the duration of such Force Majeure and, in the event of termination, thereafter.
