(b)      Additional Services. From time to time after the Effective Date, the parties hereto may identify additional services to become Reuters Transitional Services or Moneyline Transitional Services, as the case may be (any such service, individually, an “Additional Service,” and, collectively, “Additional Services”). In order for a service not covered under Section 2.01(a) to become a Reuters Transitional Service or a Moneyline Transitional Service, as the case may be, the party identifying a proposed Additional Service shall provide the other party a reasonably detailed written notice setting forth the proposed Additional Service. Within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of such notice, the other party shall notify the requesting party whether it agrees to provide or receive, as the case may be, the proposed Additional Service such agreement not to be unreasonably withheld and if so, any requirements necessary in order to provide or receive, as the case may be, the proposed Additional Service.

The parties’ agreement to the provision of an Additional Service shall be evidenced by the completion and execution of the relevant Additional Service Schedule, and such Additional Service thereupon shall be deemed to be a Reuters Transitional Service or Moneyline Transitional Service, as the case may be, under this Agreement.

Section 2.02.     Third Party Service Providers.

(c)     Regardless of whether the Service Provider transfers, licenses or assigns a Service as part of an Outsourcing Relationship or a Service Transfer, the Service Provider shall remain responsible for maintenance of the appropriate Service Levels under this Agreement with respect to such Service and shall remain liable to the Service Recipient for such Service in the same manner and to the same extent as if the Service Provider itself were continuing to provide the Service.

(d)     if such Reuters Transitional Service is being provided by a Third Party Service Provider under the same agreement or arrangement by which such Third Party Service Provider was providing such service prior to the Moneyline Closing Date was executed, Reuters shall:

19


EXECUTION COPY

(i)     use its commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the Third Party Service Provider provides the Reuters Transitional Service in a manner consistent with the terms of its service agreement with Reuters; or

(ii)     at the expense of Moneyline, reasonably cooperate with Moneyline in independently contracting for such Reuters Transitional Service.

In the event a Service Level is not indicated on Schedule 3.02 or any other Schedule attached hereto, the Service Level shall be determined in the following manner:

(ii)     at the expense of Reuters, reasonably cooperate with Reuters in independently contracting for such Moneyline Transitional Service.

Section 3.03.     Transitional Nature of Services; Changes. Both parties acknowledge that the Services provided hereunder are transitional in nature and that a Service Provider may make changes from time to time in the manner of performing the Services (including, but not limited to, changes to data content and functionality), so long as the Service Provider is making similar changes in performing similar services for its own use, and so long as such changes do not materially and adversely impact the Service Level provided by such Service Provider for

20


EXECUTION COPY

such Service. Further, to the extent that the Service Recipient requests changes to specifications, architecture, networks or system or desktop configurations of its clients, the Service Recipient shall immediately notify in writing the Service Provider of any such change requests, to the extent that such changes will affect the Service Provider’s network or systems or the Service Provider’s provision of the Services; provided, however, that the Service Recipient shall use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the clients of such Service Recipient shall utilize the specifications, architecture, networks or system or desktop configurations supported by the Service Provider in the applicable location generally for the provision of Services to its or their clients.

Section 3.04. Obligations of the Service Recipient.     Specific obligations of a Service Recipient with respect to any Service may be set forth in the applicable Schedule. Where no specific obligations for the Service Recipient are set forth in the applicable Schedule, such Service Recipient shall use its reasonable efforts, in connection with receiving any such Service, to follow the reasonable policies, procedures and practices of the Service Provider applicable to the Service in effect from time to time and shall also provide information and documentation reasonably requested by the Service Provider to perform the Service and make available, as reasonably requested by the Service Provider, sufficient resources and timely decisions, approvals and acceptances to permit the Service Provider to meet its obligations hereunder. If a Service Provider implements any change to a Service that requires a Service Recipient to introduce other changes to its own operations or requires the Service Recipient’s customers to implement any changes (including, for example, software or communications upgrades) in order to maintain product functionality or compatibility, so long as the Service Provider is making similar changes in performing similar services for its own use and so long as such changes do not materially and adversely impact the Service Level provided by such Service Provider for such Service, then the Service Recipient will be required to implement, or cause its customers to implement, the same changes at its (or their) expense within ninety (90) days of notice.

Section 3.05. Modifications to Service Levels.     The parties shall utilize the necessary measurement and monitoring tools and procedures required to measure and report Service Levels for mutually agreed Services as set forth on the applicable Service Schedule.

Service Level Credits.     In the event any Service Provider fails to meet a Service Level requirement(s), the Service Recipient shall be entitled to receive appropriate monetary damages based on standards of materiality, proportionality, notification and escalation procedures. The methodologies for determining such damages are set forth on Schedules 3.01 and 3.02 hereto, and the parties agree to follow all such methodologies.

(b)     the Service Recipient shall provide the Service Provider with all client, network and system information to be necessary to contact, and work directly with, the Service Recipient’s clients to the extent reasonably necessary for the Service Provider to fulfill its obligations under the Agreement.

Section 4.02.      Cooperation; Consents. Except with respect to the licenses granted in Article VI by Reuters and except as otherwise provided in Article XIV, the applicable Service Recipient shall obtain and maintain all consents, licenses, sublicenses or approvals necessary to permit the applicable Service Provider to provide the Services, and perform its obligations hereunder. Except with respect to the licenses granted in Article VI, such Service Recipient shall bear the entire cost and expense of obtaining and maintaining such consents, licenses, sublicenses or approvals and will reimburse the applicable Service Provider for any costs and expenses incurred thereby in connection with obtaining any such consents, licenses, sublicenses or approvals. If a Service Recipient is unable to obtain such consents, licenses, sublicenses or approvals, the Service Recipient shall notify the Service Provider of such failure and the Service Provider shall not be obligated to provide or cause to be provided the provision of such Services to the extent, and only to the extent, such consents, licenses, sublicenses or approvals are required for performances of such Services.

Service Providers shall not use, store, collect, alter or disclose any Relevant Intellectual Property for any purpose other than as expressly provided in this Section 4.04.

Section 4.05.     Third Party Licenses.

Section 4.06.     Return of Assets. Upon written request of either party, the other party shall promptly, but in any event within sixty (60) days, return to, or promptly make available for collection on reasonable terms all of such other party’s CPE and other property.

ARTICLE V

REUTERS TRANSITIONAL EMPLOYEES

Section 5.01.     Reuters Transitional Employees. The number and identity, to the extent permitted by law, of the employees who shall be dedicated exclusively to the provision of certain of the Reuters Transitional Services shall be as set forth in Exhibit D (the “Reuters Transitional Employees”). It being understood and agreed that neither Reuters nor any member of the Reuters Group is required to disclose any personal information unless a failure to disclose such personal information would be violative of applicable law. Subject to the terms of this Article V, Reuters agrees to use its reasonable efforts to cause each of the Reuters Transitional Employees to continue to provide to Moneyline the services and perform the functions that such individual provided on behalf of the Telerate Business immediately prior to the Moneyline Closing Date (together with reasonable modifications of such functions in the ordinary course of Reuters business).

Section 5.02.     Services. The Reuters Transitional Employee shall perform the Reuters Transitional Services at their current places of employment, as may be changed from time to time in the ordinary course of Reuters business, and under the supervision, direction and control of Reuters or a member of the Reuters Group; provided, however, that nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit Reuters or a member of the Reuters Group from exercising such direction and control to move personnel to account for organizational promotions and reorganizations. The Reuters Transitional Employees shall be exclusively employed by Reuters or a member of the Reuters Group for the duration of the period for which they are providing a Reuters Transitional Service (consistent with the transitioning procedures set forth below) or as otherwise reasonably agreed by the parties in writing.

23


EXECUTION COPY

Section 5.03.     Reimbursement for Reuters Transitional Employee Costs. During the period in which any Reuters Transitional Services are performed, Moneyline shall reimburse Reuters for the Transitional Employee Costs; provided, however, that during such period Reuters shall not increase Reuters Transitional Employee salaries to a degree that is, in the aggregate, inconsistent with salary increases for similarly situated Reuters employees working at the same locations.

Section 5.04.     Transition to Moneyline Employment. In accordance with applicable law, Reuters and Moneyline agree that upon the termination of this Agreement, or upon the cessation of the Reuters Transitional Service being provided by the Reuters Transitional Employees, Reuters will permit Moneyline to make offers of employment to the applicable Reuters Transitional Employees. In the event that Moneyline shall fail or refuse to hire any such employee, or any such employee shall fail or refuse to accept such employment with Moneyline, Moneyline shall reimburse Reuters for the severance pay and other termination related costs (including unused vacation and paid time off) under Reuters then existing programs and policies providing such benefits for similarly situated Reuters employees commensurate with then current practices, or as otherwise required by applicable law.

Section 5.05.     Cessation of Status as Reuters Transitional Employee.

(a)     In the event that any Reuters Transitional Employee ceases to be an employee of Reuters during the Term or assumes another position within Reuters, such individual shall automatically cease to be a Reuters Transitional Employee for purposes of this Agreement. Reuters shall promptly attempt to find a suitable replacement for such former Reuters Transitional Employee at a compensation level equal to or less than the Reuters Transitional Employee being replaced (unless Reuters obtains Moneyline’s prior written consent which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, and if such consent is withheld or delayed, then Reuters shall have no obligation to replace such Reuters Transitional Employee). If replaced, such replacement shall then be deemed to be a Reuters Transitional Employee and the provisions of this Agreement relating to Reuters Transitional Employees will apply. If Reuters complies with the foregoing requirements, neither Moneyline nor any member of the Moneyline Group shall be entitled to claim a breach by Reuters or any member of the Reuters Group of any Service Level commitments which are directly attributable to the non-replacement of a former Reuters Transitional Employee.

(b)     In the event that Moneyline, acting reasonably, is dissatisfied with the performance of any Reuters Transitional Employee during the term of this Agreement, Moneyline shall provide notice to Reuters of its dissatisfaction (including a statement in reasonable detail setting forth the basis therefor). Reuters shall (i) initiate performance management and/or disciplinary action with respect to such Reuters Transitional Employee consistent with Reuters applicable personnel policies, (ii) treat such complaint as if such complaint were made by a senior manager of Reuters, and (iii) take prompt action with respect to such complaint, taking into account the duration of this Agreement; provided, further, that

24


EXECUTION COPY

Moneyline personnel interacting with any such Reuters Transitional Employee shall cooperate with the documentation and administration of any performance management plan. If, following the implementation of such steps, Moneyline reasonably desires that Reuters remove such individual from the performance of Reuters Transitional Services, then Moneyline shall provide Reuters with at least ten (10) Business Days’ notice or in accordance with standard Reuters practice, whichever is longer, and (subject to any applicable requirements of law) Reuters shall then remove such individual from the performance of Reuters Transitional Services and such individual shall cease to be a Reuters Transitional Employee for purposes of this Agreement. Reuters shall comply with the provisions set forth in Section 5.05(a) in finding a replacement for such former Reuters Transitional Employee. If Reuters terminates the employment of a Reuters Transitional Employee as a result of Moneyline’s dissatisfaction with such employee’s performance (and such Reuters Transitional Employee has been designated to exclusively perform Services to the Moneyline Group for more than thirty (30) consecutive days) then Moneyline shall reimburse Reuters for the severance pay and other termination related costs (including unused vacation and paid time off) under Reuters then existing programs and policies providing such benefits for similarly situated Reuters employees commensurate with then current practices, or as otherwise required by applicable law.

(c)     In the event that Moneyline notifies Reuters in writing that it no longer requires the services of any Reuters Transitional Employee (other than because Moneyline is dissatisfied with the performance of such employee during the term of this Agreement), Reuters shall remove such individual from the performance of Reuters Transitional Services and Reuters shall have no obligation to replace such individual under this Agreement. If Reuters terminates the employment of a Reuters Transitional Employee as a result of Moneyline’s notification that it no longer requires such employee’s performance, Moneyline shall reimburse Reuters for the severance pay and other termination related costs (including unused vacation and paid time off) under Reuters then existing programs and policies providing such benefits for similarly situated Reuters employees commensurate with then current practices, or as otherwise required by applicable law.

(d)     In the event that Reuters terminates the employment of any Reuters Transitional Employee during the term of this Agreement for “cause” (as defined herein), which Reuters may do in its sole discretion, Reuters shall remove such individual from the performance of services for Moneyline and Reuters shall use commercially reasonable efforts to replace such individual, and such replacement shall then be deemed to be a Reuters Transitional Employee and the provisions of this Agreement relating to Reuters Transitional Employees will apply including the provisions set forth in clauses (a) and (b) of this Section 5.05. For purposes of this provision, “cause” shall mean the conviction or plea of guilty to any crime, dishonesty, misconduct, or violation of Reuters policies or rules, as determined by Reuters in its sole discretion, except that poor job performance shall not be deemed, for purposes of this subsection, to constitute misconduct or a violation of Reuters policies or rules.

(e)     Moneyline understands and agrees that some or all Reuters Transitional Employees may terminate their employment relationship with Reuters at any time or may seek alternative positions at Reuters that are generally publicized to Reuters employees. Reuters shall not be in breach of this Agreement as a result of such termination or reassignment if it complies with the provisions of Section 5.05(a). In each case, Reuters shall use commercially reasonable efforts in accordance with Section 5.05(a) to replace such Reuters Transitional Employees, and such replacements shall then be deemed to be Reuters Transitional Employees and the provisions of this Agreement relating to Reuters Transitional Employees will apply.

Moneyline shall not, and shall ensure that neither any member of the Moneyline Group nor any Permitted Distributor shall, at any time use or seek to register any trademarks confusingly similar to the Bridge Trademarks in any jurisdiction. If Moneyline or any member of the Moneyline Group becomes aware that any Permitted Distributor is using or seeking to register any trademarks confusingly similar to the Bridge Trademarks in any jurisdiction, Moneyline or a member of the Moneyline Group shall (i) promptly notify Reuters in writing of such activities and (ii) use their commercially reasonable efforts to cause any Permitted Distributor of which it becomes aware to cease and desist using or seeking to register such trademarks and (iii) use their commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with any actions taken by Reuters or a member of the Reuters Group against a Permitted Distributor that seeks to register or uses such trademarks.

(b)     No Right to Bridge Look and Feel.

(iv)     In respect of the Telerate Channel Software licensed to Moneyline pursuant to Section 6.02(a)(i), the parties agree and acknowledge that if there are future versions of Telerate Channel software, JEX Server Version and, if such future versions of Telerate Channel are reliant upon Bridge Internet Toolkit (“BIT”) as a middleware application, then the license of Telerate Channel Software hereunder shall include solely the middleware functionality of BIT (but not the use of BIT as a toolkit enabling customers to access and redistribute data over web portals) for use in connection with Telerate Channel. While the Moneyline acknowledges that such future versions of the software may not optimally support Telerate services, Reuters agrees to assess the feasibility of including streaming pages into the next version of BIT. If such inclusion is feasible, at Moneyline’s request, Reuters shall undertake to include such functionality into the next version of BIT, and Moneyline will reimburse Reuters for one-hundred percent (100%) of the salary and benefits that Reuters pays personnel to include such functionality.

SHARED SITES

Section 7.01.     Shared Sites Defined. For purposes of this Agreement, a “Shared Site” is any CPE and telecommunication connections at a client’s site that acts as a single point of access through which a client receives services from both a member of the Reuters Group and a member of the Moneyline Group or a Permitted Distributor. The parties agree that:

(b)     As part of the Moneyline Transitional Services, Moneyline shall own the CPE and contract for the telecommunications connections for Shared Sites located in the Territory.

Section 7.02.     Exclusive Site Defined.

(a)     For purposes of this Agreement, an “Exclusive Site” is one or more CPEs and telecommunication connections at a client’s site that act as a single point of access through which a client receives services from either a member of the Reuters Group or a member of the Moneyline Group (including a Permitted Distributor), but not from both.

(b)     If a client of a Shared Site cancels all services received through that Shared Site from Moneyline, then the Shared Site automatically becomes a Reuters Exclusive Site. If a client of a Shared Site cancels all services received through that Shared Site from Reuters, then the Shared Site automatically becomes a Moneyline Exclusive Site.

(c)     A Shared Site that becomes a Reuters Exclusive Site or a Moneyline Exclusive Site, as the case may be, shall remain a Reuters Exclusive Site or a Moneyline Exclusive Site, as the case may be, and cannot be reverted to a Shared Site. In other words, neither Reuters nor Moneyline (nor members of their respective Groups or Permitted Distributors) may provide their respective clients with services utilizing CPE or telecommunications facilities that are being used exclusively by the other party to provide services to its own clients.

Section 7.03.     Shared Sites Become Moneyline Exclusive Sites.

(a)     Upon notification by a client of a Shared Site in which the CPE is owned by Reuters pursuant to Section 7.01 that such client wishes to cancel all of the Reuters services to such Shared Site – so that such Shared Site becomes a Moneyline Exclusive Site – Reuters shall notify Moneyline of such cancellation and Moneyline shall have the opportunity to purchase the CPE at the Fair Market Value. If Moneyline makes such purchase, after Moneyline assumes obligations of the CPE including payment obligations, Reuters shall immediately cease charging Moneyline and members of the Moneyline Group for all telecommunications circuits arising from and after the date of the cancellation. In the event Moneyline does not purchase the CPE, Reuters will remove the CPE from the Shared Site. Further, in the event Moneyline does not take assignment of the telecommunication circuits, Reuters will cancel the telecommunication circuits.

(b)     Upon notification by a client of a Shared Site in which the CPE is owned by Moneyline pursuant to Section 7.01 that such client wishes to cancel the Reuters services to such Shared Site – so that such Shared Site becomes a Moneyline Exclusive Site – Reuters shall notify Moneyline of such cancellation and Moneyline shall retain ownership and management of CPE and telecommunications circuits of such Shared Site.

35


EXECUTION COPY

(c)     If Moneyline desires to convert a Shared Site in which the CPE is owned by Reuters pursuant to Section 7.01 into a Moneyline Exclusive Site, it may at any time notify Reuters of its intention and order and install at its own cost and expense independent telecommunications circuits, connections or related requirements and CPE for the delivery of Moneyline services to the client; provided, however, that the parties agree that the telecommunications provider shall be responsible for, and shall manage, the add/delete process for circuits, connections and related requirements.

(d)     At such time a Shared Site becomes a Moneyline Exclusive Site, Reuters Transitional Service obligations shall be reduced to the standard Reuters Transitional Services provided to other Moneyline Exclusive Sites.

Section 7.04.     Shared Site Becomes a Reuters Exclusive Site.

(a)     Upon notification by a client of a Shared Site owned by Moneyline pursuant to Section 7.01 that such client wishes to cancel all of the Moneyline services to such Shared Site – so that such Shared Site becomes a Reuters Exclusive Site – Moneyline shall notify Reuters of such cancellation and Reuters shall have the opportunity to purchase the CPE at the Fair Market Value. If Reuters makes such purchase, after Reuters assumes obligations of the CPE including payment obligations, Moneyline shall immediately cease charging Reuters and members of the Reuters Group for all telecommunications circuits arising from and after the date of the cancellation. In the event Reuters does not purchase the CPE, Moneyline will remove the CPE from the Shared Site. Further, in the event Reuters does not take assignment of the telecommunication circuits, Moneyline will cancel the telecommunication circuits.

(b)     Upon notification by a client of a Shared Site owned by Reuters pursuant to Section 7.01 that such client wishes to cancel the Moneyline services to such Shared Site – so that such Shared Site becomes a Reuters Exclusive Site – Moneyline shall notify Reuters of such cancellation and Reuters shall retain ownership and management of CPE and telecommunications circuits of such Shared Site.

(c)     If Reuters desires to convert a Shared Site owned by Moneyline pursuant to Section 7.01 into a Reuters Exclusive Site, it may at any time notify Moneyline of its intention and order and install at its own cost and expense independent telecommunications circuits, connections or related requirements and CPE for the delivery of Reuters services to the client; provided, however, that the parties agree that the telecommunications provider shall be responsible for, and shall manage, the add/delete process for circuits, connections and related requirements.

(d)     At such time a Shared Site becomes a Reuters Exclusive Site, Reuters shall no longer be required to provide Reuters Transitional Services with respect to such Reuters Exclusive Site.

Section 7.05.     Moneyline Exclusive Sites to Reuters Exclusive Sites.

In the event a client at a Moneyline Exclusive Site decides to cancel receipt of Moneyline services and order Reuters services, Moneyline shall cancel the telecommunications circuits and remove the CPE. Reuters shall be responsible for ordering new telecommunications circuits, connections and related requirements and installing its own CPE at its own cost and expense; provided, however, that the parties agree that the telecommunications provider shall be responsible for, and shall manage, the add/delete process for circuits, connections and related requirements.

Section 7.07.     Infrastructure Issues.

(a)     If a Shared Site requires new telecommunication circuits, changes to client site architecture and configuration or similar, any out-of-pocket costs relating to such changes and upgrades shall be borne equally by Moneyline and Reuters.

(b)     The determination of the Technical Account Manager assigned by the party who owns the CPE at the Shared Site pursuant to Section 7.01 shall be determinative for purposes of deciding whether any changes or upgrades to a Shared Site are required and both parties shall consult, cooperate and coordinate with the other on all such changes and upgrades.

(or any successor thereto) plus two percent (2%).

EXECUTION COPY

Section 9.03.     Service Recipient Audits. In the event Reuters is able to provide Moneyline with reasonable evidence that a Permitted Distributor, Moneyline or a Moneyline Client is violating Reuters Intellectual Property Rights in and to the Software, Reuters may send a written demand to Moneyline (together with the evidence) to audit the applicable Permitted Distributor and each Moneyline Client and to allow an independent third party auditor (who shall be subject to a mutually agreeable confidentiality agreement), upon reasonable prior notice, to inspect, audit, monitor and analyze the systems, books, records and activities of Moneyline and each member of the Moneyline Group as reasonably necessary to substantiate the adequacy and completeness of the compliance by Moneyline, the members of the Moneyline Group, each Moneyline Client and each Permitted Distributor with the provisions of this Agreement, including each such party’s (i) compliance with the use of Software and (ii) fulfillment of any of its obligations necessary to receive any of the Reuters Transitional Services including obtaining the necessary consents and licenses. Such inspection (i) to the extent Reuters is able to conduct the audit by checking internal systems such as MIS and Vantive without disrupting Moneyline’s operations, shall occur once per month or as frequently as Reuters deems reasonably necessary to appropriately monitor the use of such Software, but in no event more than once per week; and (ii) will not commence any later than two (2) years subsequent to the termination of the Agreement. Reuters shall bear the cost of the inspection and audit; provided, however, that if as a result of such audit, Reuters discovers that Moneyline, a Permitted Distributor or a Moneyline Client has substantially failed to comply with the material provisions of this Agreement then Moneyline shall bear the cost of the audit.

Further, if as a result of such audit, Reuters discovers that Moneyline, a Permitted Distributor or a Moneyline Client has failed to comply with the provisions of this Agreement then Moneyline shall, or shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause a Moneyline Client or Permitted Distributor to, cure such breach within thirty (30) days of Reuters written notice describing the alleged breach in a reasonable detail; provided however, that if the alleged breach is related to an unauthorized use or disclosure of the Software, the cure period set forth above shall be ten (10) days.

Section 9.04.     User Count Audits. Moneyline and Reuters, upon giving the other party thirty (30) days prior written notice (except if such notice is delivered in November or December of any year during the Term, in which case such notice shall be given not less than sixty (60) days prior to the date of the audit), shall have the right to have an independent third party who shall be subject to a reasonably acceptable confidentiality and non-disclosure agreement of the audited party to inspect, audit, copy and analyze such other party’s books, systems, and records as reasonably necessary to substantiate any Licensed User and Ticker Plant User count numbers used for the calculations set forth in the Reuters Cost and Resource Schedule and Moneyline Cost and Resource Schedule, during business hours at the other party’s place of business. Such inspection (i) shall occur no more than four times per year, (ii) will not commence any later than two (2) years subsequent to the termination of this Agreement and (iii) the party initiating the inspection shall bear the cost of the inspection and audit; provided, however, that in the event during the course of an audit, a party finds evidence that the other party has inaccurately stated its Licensed User and Ticker Plant User count numbers by more than 10 percent (10%) of the number actually reported by such party, and such party is unable to reconcile such evidence after being given a reasonable period of time in which to do so, then such cost shall be borne by the party being audited and not the party which initiated the audit. The party which inaccurately understated its Licensed User and Ticker Plant User count numbers and therefore underpaid any amounts owed shall promptly remit any payments to the other party together with interest at the prime lending rate established from time to time by Citibank N.A. (or any successor thereto) plus two percent (2%).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties agree and acknowledge that (i) currently existing offerings (such as Telerate Energy, Telerate Municipals and Telerate North America) targeting specific markets as such products are currently constituted shall not be subject to the foregoing restriction, and (ii) Moneyline shall not be prohibited from selling its non-equity content to Permitted Distributors.

Section 10.03.     Bridge Redistribution.

(a)     Reuters shall have the exclusive right to sell and market Bridge Channel and WDK globally both for internal customer use and for consumer internet applications; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not limit Moneyline or a member of the Moneyline Group from using WDK as specified in Section 6.02(a)(iv), subject to the restrictions set forth therein.

(b)     During the period Reuters is providing Services hereunder, the Moneyline Group may not sell or market any Bridge services for customer redistribution to third parties (either B2B2B or B2B2C), other than Permitted Distributors that, in turn, prohibit customer redistribution.

ARTICLE XVI

CONFIDENTIALITY

Section 16.01.     Confidential Information. For purposes of this Agreement, “Confidential Information” of a party shall mean any know-how, processes, procedures, techniques, ideas, inventions (whether or not patentable), formulas, algorithms, computer programs, databases, technical drawings, designs, circuits, layouts, interfaces, schematics, names and information about the expertise of employees or consultants, customer lists and contact information, product pricing information, product development plans, business analyses, information relating to sales, cost or pricing, marketing data, and business forecasts, projections and strategies, as well as any other information provided by one party or a member of its Group (the “Disclosing Party”) to the other party or a member of its Group (the“Receiving Party”) that is (i) marked “Confidential” or “Proprietary” with other prominent notations of similar import, (ii) would be deemed by a reasonable person to be confidential, or (iii) the parties agree in writing will be considered Confidential Information under this Agreement. Except for the provisions set forth in Article XII of this Agreement and the Reuters Cost and Resource Schedule and the Moneyline Cost and Resource Schedule, which shall be deemed to be Confidential Information, the parties acknowledge that the terms and conditions and existence of this Agreement shall not be deemed to be Confidential Information.

Section 16.02.     Use of Confidential Information. The Receiving Party agrees that it will not use or disclose to any third party any Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party except (a) as expressly permitted under a written agreement between the Receiving Party and the Disclosing Party; (b) to the extent necessary to provide Services (but subject to any express limitations or restrictions on the use of such Confidential Information set forth in a written agreement between the Receiving Party and the Disclosing Party); (c) to financial institutions, investors and prospective investors, agents and representatives of the receiving party for the sole purpose of a legitimate investment interest, all of which shall be under obligation of confidentiality, (d) to the extent necessary in the course of legal proceedings to establish the

53


EXECUTION COPY

Receiving Party’s rights or obligations or to comply with a valid court order or subpoena (provided that the Receiving Party has notified the Disclosing Party thereof and used all reasonable efforts to obtain a protective order or otherwise lawfully contest or seek to limit the scope of the disclosure), or (e) to the extent required by the Securities Exchange Commission or by any securities exchange or by law or by any other governmental agency or authority requiring such disclosure as part of a public filing or otherwise.

Section 16.03.     Protection Against Unauthorized Use or Disclosure. The Receiving Party will limit access to the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information to those of the Receiving Party’s employees and contractors who have a need to know, who have confidentiality obligations no less restrictive than those set forth herein, and who have been informed of the confidential nature of such information. In addition, the Receiving Party will protect the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information from unauthorized use, access, or disclosure in the same manner as the Receiving Party protects its own proprietary information of a similar nature, and in no event with less than reasonable care.

Section 16.04.     Return of Confidential Information. Upon the request of the Disclosing Party, the Receiving Party shall promptly return the Confidential Information (including any copies, extracts, and summaries thereof, in whatever form and medium recorded) to the Disclosing Party or, with the Disclosing Party’s prior written consent, shall promptly destroy it and provide the Disclosing Party with written certification of such destruction.

Section 16.05.     Waiver. The Receiving Party may request in writing that the Disclosing Party waive all or any portion of the Receiving Party’s responsibilities relative to the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information. Such waiver request shall identify the affected information and the nature of the proposed waiver. The Disclosing Party shall respond within a reasonable time and, if it determines, in its sole discretion, to grant the requested waiver, it will do so in writing by the signature of an employee authorized to grant such request. Any failure by a party not to respond to such request will not be deemed approval of such request.

Section 16.06.     Remedy. Reuters and the members of the Reuters Group and Moneyline and the members of Moneyline Group acknowledge that any disclosure or misappropriation of Confidential Information in violation of this Agreement could cause irreparable harm, the amount of which may be difficult to determine, thus potentially making any remedy at law or in damages inadequate. Each party, therefore, agrees that the other party shall have the right to apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for an order restraining any breach or threatened breach of this Section and for any other appropriate relief. This right shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other remedy available in law or equity.

Section 16.07.     Exclusion from Confidential Information. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section will not apply to any information which the Receiving Party can demonstrate was:

(1)     at the time of disclosure to the Receiving Party, in the public domain;

(2)     after disclosure to the Receiving Party, published or otherwise became part of the public domain through no fault of the Receiving Party;

54


EXECUTION COPY

(3)     in the possession of the Receiving Party at the time of disclosure to it and not already covered under any other confidentiality agreement between the Disclosing Party and the Receiving Party;

(4)     received after disclosure to it from a third party who had a lawful right to disclose such information to the Receiving Party; or

(5)     independently developed by the Receiving Party without reference to Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party.

Section 16.08.     Survival. This Article XVI shall survive the termination of the Agreement for a period of three (3) years or, with respect to know-how, processes, procedures, techniques, ideas, inventions (whether or not patentable), formulas, algorithms, computer programs, databases, technical drawings, designs, circuits, layouts, interfaces, materials, schematics (“Technology”), for so long as such Technology retains commercial value.

Section 16.09.     Bridge Symbols.

(a)     Reuters hereby grants to Moneyline a limited worldwide, non-transferable, non-exclusive, royalty-free license for the duration of the Term to use only those symbols utilized in the Ticker Plant to identify and display Shared Content and Moneyline Exclusive Content (“Bridge Symbols”) for the sole purpose of enabling Moneyline Clients to access and view such content. For avoidance of doubt, Bridge Symbols do not include RICs; and this license shall not be deemed to constitute a grant of any rights in or to RICs.

(b)     Subject to clause (c) below, for a period of four (4) years following termination of this Agreement, Moneyline shall have the right to continue using those Bridge Symbols representing Shared Content and Moneyline Exclusive Content for the sole purpose of enabling Moneyline Clients to access and view such content; provided, however, that with respect to the root symbols underlying the Moneyline Exclusive Content, Reuters thereafter grants to Moneyline a perpetual, worldwide, irrevocable, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to enable Moneyline, Moneyline Clients and Moneyline designees to access and view such content. Reuters shall have no obligation to maintain, update or modify such Bridge Symbols or provide Moneyline with access to any other Bridge Symbols following termination of this Agreement.

(c)     In the event that this Agreement is terminated by Reuters pursuant to Section 15.04, the license granted pursuant to this Section 16.09 shall automatically terminate with immediate effect.

ARTICLE XVII

DISPUTE RESOLUTION

Section 17.01.     Dispute Resolution. In the event that any dispute between the parties hereto arises from or concerns in any manner the subject matter of this Agreement, each party will attempt, in good faith, to resolve such dispute through discussion between its employees in the following order: first, within five (5) days of receipt of any written request by Reuters or a member of the Reuters Group or Moneyline or a member of the Moneyline Group, as the case may be, of a dispute hereunder (a “Dispute Notice”), the relevant Contact Person of each of

55


EXECUTION COPY

Moneyline and Reuters shall attempt to resolve the dispute; in the event the relevant Contact Persons are unable to resolve such dispute within ten (10) days of receipt of a Dispute Notice, then, comparable executives of each of Moneyline and Reuters shall meet in person to resolve such dispute; and finally in the event the respective executives are unable to resolve such dispute within ten (10) days of receipt of a Dispute Notice, then the President of Reuters Business Technology Group (or officer of equivalent rank) and the Chief Financial Officer (or officer of equivalent rank) of Moneyline shall meet in person to resolve such dispute. If the respective officers cannot resolve the dispute within ten (10) days of such dispute being submitted to them (“Negotiation Period”), the dispute resolution mechanism set forth in Sections 17.02, 17.03 and 17.04 shall be employed as appropriate. Any meetings between the employees set forth above may occur in New York, New York, if such meeting is to be in person, or may occur via telephone or videoconference, as the parties may mutually determine. This Section 17.01 shall not prohibit either party from seeking equitable relief.

Section 17.02.     Article Eight Disputes. Any dispute arising from or relating to Article VIII after its failure to be adequately be resolved pursuant to Section 17.01 may be immediately submitted by either party to the final and binding determination of a mutually agreed upon expert in matters of and relating to Article VIII and generally to pricing and accounting matters (“Financial Expert”). The Financial Expert shall be selected from the top four (4) accounting firms then existing in the United States as ranked by fee income in the most recent ranking by The International Accounting Bulletin, or another mutually agreed publication. Each party shall be entitled to eliminate one (1) of the top four (4) firms from consideration for the role of Financial Expert. If after elimination by both parties, there remains only one accounting firm, then this firm shall be deemed to have been selected by the parties. If after elimination there remains more than one firm that is eligible to be chosen as the Financial Expert, the Financial Expert shall be chosen by random selection. The Managing Partner (or equivalent) of the selected firm shall appoint a Partner of the firm who has not worked on the Moneyline and/or Reuters account to be the Financial Expert. In the event that the Managing Partner of the selected firm declines on behalf of his firm to undertake the role of Financial Expert, the selection process set out above will be repeated with the previously selected firm removed from the top four selection and replaced by the next highest ranking firm. This procedure shall be repeated until a Financial Expert is chosen. In the event that the selection procedure outlined above does not produce a firm willing to accept the role of Financial Expert, then the Financial Expert shall be chosen by random selection from all of the Top 10 ranked firms without elimination. The Financial Expert is not empowered to award treble, punitive or any other damages in excess of compensatory damages, and each party irrevocably waives any claim to recover any such damages. The Financial Expert shall make a reasoned award within forty-five (45) days of receiving such Dispute and such award rendered by the Financial Expert shall be final and binding between the parties, their successors and assigns, and each shall comply with the decision in good faith. In any dispute arising from Article VIII, in the event that the Invoicing Party prevails, the Invoicing Party may charge interest on such disputed amount from the due date to the date such sum is paid at the prime or base lending rate established from time to time by Citibank N.A. (or any successor thereto).

Section 17.03.     Service Level Disputes. Any dispute arising from or relating to Article III after its failure to be adequately be resolved pursuant to Section 17.01 may be submitted by either party to the final and binding determination of a mutually agreed upon Industry Expert. The Industry Expert is not empowered to award treble, punitive or any other damages in excess

56


EXECUTION COPY

of compensatory damages, and each party irrevocably waives any claim to recover any such damages. The Industry Expert shall make a reasoned award within forty-five (45) days of receiving such dispute and such award rendered by the Industry Expert shall be final and binding between the parties, their successors and assigns, and each shall comply with the decision in good faith. The Industry Expert shall be entitled to award monetary damages based on standards of materiality, proportionality, notification and escalation procedures. If the current Industry Expert is available and continues to be independent of the parties, he/she shall be utilized for the resolution of these disputes. If he/she is not available or independent, then each party shall nominate two (2) qualified neutral industry expert candidates of which each party may reject one (1) candidate. If any nominated candidate becomes unavailable or is reasonably determined by the other party not to be neutral, then the nominating party shall promptly designate a replacement. If the parties are unable to agree on a selection within fifteen (15) Business Days, the final candidate will be selected at random from the remaining two (2) candidates.

Section 17.04.     Other Unresolved Disputes. All disputes not governed by Sections 17.02 and 17.03 and not otherwise resolved pursuant to Section 17.01 of or relating to this Agreement may be resolved by litigation.

Section 17.05.     Jurisdiction Venue and Service of Process. Any litigation brought arising from or concerning in any manner the subject matter of this Agreement shall be brought in the state and federal courts of the County of New York, State of New York. Each of the parties hereby submits itself to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of such courts for purposes of any such litigation. Reuters hereby appoints the General Counsel, Reuters America Inc. at its principal place of business in New York, New York, and Moneyline hereby appoints the General Counsel (or officer of equivalent rank), Moneyline Telerate at its principal place of business in New York, New York, in each case, respectively, as such party’s authorized agent to accept and acknowledge on such party’s behalf service of any and all process that may be served in any such litigation. Any and all service of process and any other notice in any such litigation shall be effective against the other party hereto if given personally, or by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, or by any other means of mail that requires a signed receipt, postage prepaid, mailed to such party as herein provided, or by personal service on such party’s authorized agent with a copy of such process mailed to such party by first class mail or registered or certified mail, postage prepaid and return receipt requested, at its address as set forth herein or at such other address as it may furnish to the other party. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to affect the right of any party hereto to serve process in any manner permitted by law.

ARTICLE XVIII

FORCE MAJEURE

EXECUTION COPY

Section 18.02.     Termination. In the event that a force majeure condition shall continue for more than sixty (60) days, the non-claiming party may terminate this Agreement with respect to the affected portion of the Services with no further liability to the other party other than for obligations incurred with respect to such affected portion prior to the occurrence of the force majeure condition.

Section 18.03.     Consequences. The consequences arising from the existence and continuation of a force majeure condition, including any interruption of the applicable Services, shall be deemed not to constitute a breach by either party hereto of any representations, warranties or covenants hereunder; that the Service Provider utilizes its commercially reasonable efforts to perform its obligations hereunder during the pendency of the force majeure event. During any period that the Service Provider is unable to provide Services due to a force majeure event, the Service Recipient shall be absolved from its payment obligations for the effected Service(s) during the force majeure period and until Service is restored in all material respects. If a Service Recipient replaces a Service provided by the Service Provider during a force majeure event, it shall not be considered evidence of the technical capability of the Service Recipient to provide or receive such Services pursuant to Section 11.01(b) or 11.02(b), as applicable. During the period in which the Service Recipient replaces a Service provided by the Service Provider as a result of a force majeure event, (i) the Service Levels set forth in Article III shall not apply and the Service Provider shall have no responsibility for such Service Levels and (ii) the Service Provider shall not charge the Service Recipient for the Services for such period of time as the Service Recipient is bound by the terms of an agreement with the third party providing such replacement services; provided, however, that the Service Recipient shall use commercially reasonable efforts to insure that the third party replacement agreement is for as short a period of time as practicable, taking into account such factors as cost and time for implementation and migration back to Service Provider.

Each time Moneyline or any member of the Moneyline Group enters into an agreement with a Permitted Distributor pursuant to the Agreement (the “Permitted Distributor Agreement”), Moneyline or the applicable member of the Moneyline Group must ensure that such Permitted Distributor agrees in writing to terms and conditions at least as protective as the following:

1. The Permitted Distributor shall have a non-exclusive and non-assignable license to distribute and sublicense the Software in Object Code form, and the related Documentation, within the Territory, for internal use only and not for development purposes, to subscribers who have entered into written end user agreements which contain the intellectual property protections and other terms and conditions set forth on Exhibit B (the “End Users”).
   
2. The Permitted Distributor shall not, and shall not allow any person or entity, including an End User, to copy, adapt, reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, modify or otherwise alter, in whole or in part, the Software.
   
3. The Permitted Distributor shall not, and shall not allow any person or entity, other than an End User, to use the Software for any purpose.
   
4. The Permitted Distributor shall not, and shall not allow any person or entity, to remove or obliterate from the Software any patent, copyright, trademark or other proprietary notices.
   
5. The Permitted Distributor expressly acknowledges that all right, title, and interest in and to any and all Intellectual Property Rights relating to or arising from the Software shall at all times remain the sole and exclusive property of Reuters or its licensors.
   
6. The Permitted Distributor shall exercise commercially reasonable efforts to monitor and enforce each End User’s compliance with all terms and conditions set forth in such End User’s end user agreement, and shall promptly notify Moneyline in writing upon becoming aware of any material breach or suspected material breach by any End User of its end user agreement.
   
7. On a monthly basis, the Permitted Distributor shall supply Moneyline with an accurate accounting of the number of users of the Software as reported by End Users, and shall provide Moneyline with copies of honesty statements from End Users.
   
8. The Permitted Distributor expressly acknowledges that Reuters is a third party beneficiary of these terms and is entitled to enforce them against the Permitted Distributor, and that any material breach of these terms will entitle Reuters to terminate the Permitted Distributor Agreement following thirty (30) days notice to both Permitted Distributor and Moneyline, unless such breach is cured within such notice period.

(F) Neither Reuters nor any member of the Reuters Group or its or their employees shall modify Moneyline Exclusive Content (including Telerate pages) without the prior written consent of Moneyline; provided, however, that the limitations set forth in the preceding clause shall not be applicable where such modifications are undertaken by Reuters or an applicable member of the Reuters Group as part of day-to-day data maintenance, data integrity activities, or as required by law or an applicable Content Provider.
   
(G) Subject to prioritization section of the Reuters Cost and Resource Schedule, Reuters or the applicable member of the Reuters Group shall have sole discretion in prioritizing resources.
