WHEREAS, simultaneously with the execution of this Agreement, Dow Jones, DJBI, Reuters, Reuters Limited, Reuters Holdings Limited, a company incorporated under the laws of England and Wales (“Reuters Holdings”), Dow Jones Business Interactive Ltd., a company incorporated under the laws of England and Wales and a subsidiary of the Company (“Factiva UK” and together with the Company and the subsidiaries of Factiva UK and the Company, the “Factiva Group”) and the Company are also executing a Unit Purchase Agreement (the “Unit Purchase Agreement”) pursuant to which, among other things, Dow Jones has agreed to cause Buyer to purchase, and Reuters, Reuters Limited and Reuters Holdings have agreed to sell, the following interests (the “Units”): all of Seller’s interest in the Company, and Reuters Holdings’ and Reuters’ two (2) ordinary shares in Factiva UK and two (2) ordinary shares in Dow Jones Business Interactive (Singapore) Pte Ltd., a company organized under the laws of Singapore and a subsidiary of Factiva UK.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, the parties hereby agree as follows:

1. Transactions.

1.1. Purchase and Sale of Shares. On the Closing Date, Seller shall sell, deliver and transfer to Buyer, and Dow Jones shall cause Buyer to purchase, all of the right, title and interest of Seller in and to the Shares, free and clear of all liens, security interests, encumbrances, mortgages, pledges or other restrictions (“Encumbrances”). The aggregate purchase price for the Shares to be paid by Buyer shall be an amount determined in accordance

with the Section 1.3 hereto (the “Purchase Price”). Dow Jones shall cause Buyer to pay the Estimated Purchase Price (as defined is Section 1.4) at the Closing by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account specified by Reuters to Dow Jones in writing at least two business days prior to the Closing Date (as defined in Section 1.2). The term “business day” shall mean any day excluding Saturday, Sunday and any day which is a legal holiday under the laws of the State of New York or in London, England or is a day on which banking institutions located in such state or city are authorized or required by law or other governmental action to close.

1.2. Closing Date. Subject to the satisfaction or waiver of all conditions set forth in Article 5, the closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Closing”) shall be held at the offices of Fried, Frank, Harris, Shriver & Jacobson LLP, One New York Plaza, New York, New York, as soon as practicable, but in no event later than five business days after the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Article 5 (excluding those conditions that, by their terms, cannot be satisfied until the Closing, but the Closing shall be subject to the satisfaction or waiver of those conditions), or at such other time, place in New York, New York or manner (including via facsimile) as may be mutually agreed to by the parties hereto (the date on which the Closing occurs being referred to in this Agreement as the “Closing Date”).

1.3. Purchase Price. The Purchase Price shall be equal to (except as otherwise set forth in this Section 1.3, all calculations in this Section 1.3 shall be calculated on a consolidated basis for NewCo and its subsidiaries as of the Closing Date, after giving effect to the transactions specified in the Formation and Contribution Agreement, prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, applied in a manner consistent with the Company’s financial statements, including NewCo’s (and not Reuters’ or Dow Jones’ or DJBI’s) accounting methods, policies, practices and procedures, with consistent classifications, valuation techniques and procedures, judgments, thresholds and estimation methodology reflected or assumed therein, it being understood that the intercompany accounts between the Company and its subsidiaries, on the one hand, and NewCo and its subsidiaries, on the other hand, shall not be eliminated in such consolidated accounts):

(a) $160,000,000 multiplied by the Share Allocation; plus

(b) 50% of the Working Capital Adjustment; plus

(c) 50% of the Cash Balance.

Attached hereto as Schedule I is a sample estimated calculation of the Purchase Price based on information provided by the Company, assuming the Closing Date was August 31, 2006 and without giving effect to the transactions contemplated by the Formation and Contribution Agreement.

“Adjusted Working Capital” means (i) the current assets of NewCo and its subsidiaries, excluding items included in the calculation of the Cash Balance and after giving effect to the transactions in Section 4.5 of this Agreement, minus (ii) the current liabilities of NewCo and its subsidiaries, after giving effect to the transactions in Section 4.5 of this

- 2 -

Agreement. For purposes of this definition, the parties shall convert any amounts stated in currency other than Dollars into Dollars based on the noon buying rate in the City of New York for cable transfer as certified for customs’ purposes by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York for the Closing Date; provided that for the Estimated Purchase Price (as defined in Section 1.4) calculation the rate used shall be the rate for the business day immediately preceding the calculation date for the Estimated Purchase Price. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the sum of the Adjusted Working Capital and the Adjusted Working Capital as defined in the Unit Purchase Agreement shall equal the same sum calculated as if the transactions contemplated by the Formation and Contribution Agreement and the Unit Purchase Agreement had not occurred.

“Baseline Working Capital” is equal to the sum of the Adjusted Working Capital as of the end of each of the twelve months ending on the latest calendar month prior to the Closing for which a balance sheet of the Company has been prepared and delivered to Dow Jones and Reuters (calculated before giving effect to the transactions contemplated by the Formation and Contribution Agreement and provided that any intercompany accounts between the Company and its subsidiaries, on the one hand, and NewCo and its subsidiaries, on the other hand, are eliminated through consolidation) divided by twelve, and then multiplied by (x) one minus (y) the Unit Allocation (as such term is defined in the Unit Purchase Agreement) (the Unit Allocation expressed as a fraction). The agreed Adjusted Working Capital amounts as at the end of each of the twelve calendar months preceding the date of this agreement are set out on Schedule II hereto.

“Buyer Settlement Amount” means (i) all amounts owed by NewCo or its subsidiaries to Dow Jones or its affiliates, minus (ii) all amounts owed by Dow Jones or its affiliates to NewCo or its subsidiaries, in each case settled or deemed settled in accordance with Section 4.5 of this Agreement.

“Cash Balance” means all cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities and instruments of NewCo or its subsidiaries (after giving effect to the transactions contemplated by Section 4.5). For purposes of this definition, the parties shall convert any amounts stated in currency other than Dollars into Dollars based on the noon buying rate in the City of New York for cable transfer as certified for customs’ purposes by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York for the Closing Date; provided that for the Estimated Purchase Price calculation the rate used shall be the rate for the business day immediately preceding the calculation date for the Estimated Purchase Price.

“Seller Settlement Amount” means (i) all amounts owed by NewCo or its subsidiaries to Reuters or its affiliates, minus (ii) all amounts owed by Reuters or its affiliates to NewCo or its subsidiaries, in each case settled in accordance with Section 4.5 of this Agreement.

“Share Allocation” shall mean the percentage to be allocated to the Shares of the total $160,000,000 (the “Total Value”) to be allocated among the NewCo Class B Shares, the Series A Preferred Shares (as defined in the Formation and Contribution Agreement, which shall be allocated the value of their aggregate liquidation preference as determined in accordance with the Formation and Contribution Agreement) and the Units (i) as

- 3 -

mutually agreed upon by Dow Jones and Reuters within 30 days of the date hereof or (ii) if Dow Jones and Reuters do not agree upon such allocation within such 30 day period, as determined by an appraiser to be mutually agreed upon by Dow Jones and Reuters (and to the extent the parties can not agree upon an appraiser within 15 days of the expiration of such 30 day period, such appraiser to be chosen by the President of the American Arbitration Association), with such appraiser allocating the Total Value by the relative values of the Company and NewCo immediately preceding the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the Unit Purchase Agreement and the other Transaction Documents (as defined in the Unit Purchase Agreement), and such appraiser shall complete and deliver to the parties such allocation within 30 days after its appointment. The allocation of the Total Value determined pursuant to either (i) or (ii) above shall be final, non-appealable and binding on the parties hereto, absent manifest error or fraud and shall be referred to herein as the “Final Allocation”. Dow Jones and Reuters each agree to report (and to cause their respective affiliates to report) the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the Unit Purchase Agreement and the other Transaction Documents for all purposes (including all tax and accounting purposes) in a manner consistent with the Final Allocation except to the extent a different allocation or reporting is required by changes after the date hereof to the applicable accounting or legal rules or principles.

“Working Capital Adjustment” means the Adjusted Working Capital less the Baseline Working Capital (which adjustment may be negative).

1.4. Purchase Price Estimate. No later than five business days prior to the Closing Date, Dow Jones shall deliver to Reuters a written statement setting forth Dow Jones’s good faith estimate of the Purchase Price (the amount of such estimate, the “Estimated Purchase Price”), the components thereof, together with reasonable supporting detail, which estimate shall be reasonably satisfactory to Reuters in its good faith determination. At the same time, NewCo will deliver to Dow Jones and Reuters a schedule of NewCo’s and its subsidiaries’ cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities and instruments as of a date no earlier than two business days prior to the date such schedule is delivered.

1.5. Delivery of Shares. At the Closing, Seller shall deliver to Buyer against receipt of the Estimated Purchase Price, certificates representing the Shares, accompanied by a duly executed stock power.

1.6. Purchase Price Adjustment.

(a) Closing Statement. As promptly as practicable after the Closing, but in no event more than 75 days after the Closing Date, Dow Jones shall in good faith prepare and deliver to Reuters a statement (the “Closing Statement”) indicating NewCo’s calculation of the Purchase Price and the components thereof, together with reasonable supporting detail (all calculations shall be done in the same manner as set forth in Section 1.3 and Schedule I). The Closing Statement shall be prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, applied in a manner consistent with NewCo’s financial statements, including NewCo’s (and not Reuters’ or Dow Jones’ or DJBI’s) accounting methods, policies, practices and procedures, with consistent classifications,

- 4 -

valuation techniques and procedures, judgments, thresholds and estimation methodology reflected or assumed therein, it being understood and agreed that, for purposes of determining the Cash Balance and Adjusted Working Capital, any amounts stated in a currency other than Dollars shall be converted into Dollars in accordance with the methodology described in the definitions of “Cash Balance” and “Adjusted Working Capital”.

(b) Purchase Price Audit Period. After receipt of the Closing Statement, Reuters shall have 30 days to review the Closing Statement, together with the work papers used in the preparation thereof. Dow Jones shall (i) provide Reuters and its representatives reasonable access during normal business hours to all relevant work papers, trial balances and other financial information to the extent necessary or useful to complete the review of the Closing Statement, and (ii) cooperate with Reuters and its representatives’ reasonable requests with respect to the review of the Closing Statement, including by providing on a timely basis all information necessary or useful in reviewing the Closing Statement. Unless Reuters delivers written notice to Dow Jones on or prior to the 30th day after Reuters’ receipt of the Closing Statement specifying in reasonable detail the amount, nature and basis of all disputed items, Reuters shall be deemed to have accepted and agreed to the calculation of the Purchase Price set forth on the Closing Statement. If Reuters notifies Dow Jones of its objection to the calculation of Purchase Price as set forth on the Closing Statement, Dow Jones and Reuters shall, within 30 days (or such longer period as the parties may agree in writing) following such notice (the “Resolution Period”), attempt to resolve their differences and any resolution by them as to any disputed amounts shall be final, binding and conclusive (other than as a result of manifest error or fraud).

(c) Dispute Resolution. If, at the conclusion of the Resolution Period, there are any amounts remaining in dispute, then such amounts remaining in dispute shall be submitted to an accounting firm of national standing mutually agreed to by Dow Jones and Reuters in good faith (the “Neutral Auditors”). If Dow Jones and Reuters do not agree in good faith within ten days of the end of the Resolution Period, the Neutral Auditors shall be chosen by the President of the American Arbitration Association. The Neutral Auditors shall act as an arbitrator to determine, based solely on the provisions of this Section 1.6 and the presentations by Dow Jones and Reuters, and not by independent review, only those issues still in dispute. Dow Jones and Reuters shall instruct the Neutral Auditors to make its determination within 30 days of the dispute being submitted for their determination and that the Neutral Auditors’ determination shall be set forth in a written statement delivered to Dow Jones and Reuters and the Neutral Auditors’ determination shall be final, non-appealable and binding on the parties hereto, absent manifest error or fraud. A judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction may be entered upon the Neutral Auditors’ determination. The Neutral Auditors shall have exclusive jurisdiction over, and resort to the Neutral Auditors as provided in this Section 1.6(c) shall be the only recourse and remedy of the parties against one another with respect to, any disputes arising out of or relating to the adjustments pursuant to this Section 1.6. The fees, costs and expenses of the Neutral Auditors shall be paid by Dow Jones, on the one hand, and Reuters, on the other hand, in inverse proportion (based on value) as Dow

- 5 -

Jones and Reuters, respectively, prevail on any disputed matters, as determined by the Neutral Auditors. The term “Final Closing Statement” shall mean the definitive Closing Statement agreed to (or deemed to be agreed to) by Dow Jones and Reuters in accordance with Section 1.6(b) or resulting from the determinations made by the Neutral Auditors in accordance with this Section 1.6(c) (in addition to those items theretofore agreed to by Dow Jones and Reuters). The “Final Purchase Price” shall mean the Purchase Price set forth in the Final Closing Statement.

(d) Purchase Price Adjustment. If the Estimated Purchase Price paid by Buyer exceeds the Final Purchase Price, then Seller shall pay Buyer within five business days of the date the Purchase Price became the Final Purchase Price, an amount equal to such excess (plus interest on such excess at the prime rate, as reported in The Wall Street Journal, calculated from and including the Closing Date until but excluding the date of such settlement). If the Estimated Purchase Price paid by Buyer is less than the amount of the Final Purchase Price, then Dow Jones shall cause Buyer to pay Seller within five business days of the date the Purchase Price became the Final Purchase Price, an amount equal to such deficiency (plus interest on such deficiency at the prime rate, as reported in The Wall Street Journal, calculated from and including the Closing Date until but excluding the date of such settlement).

1.7. Buyer. No later than five business days prior to the Closing Date, Dow Jones shall designate in writing to Reuters the name and jurisdiction of organization of each Buyer. If Dow Jones designates more than one Buyer, such designation shall also include the allocation of Shares among the Buyers.

2. Representations and Warranties of Reuters. Reuters hereby represents and warrants to Dow Jones and DJBI:

2.1. Title to the Shares; No Proxies. As of the Closing Date, Seller will have, and upon the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, Seller will have full power and the right to transfer the legal and beneficial title to the Shares free and clear of any Encumbrances. Reuters has not granted any proxy with respect to the Shares. After giving effect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, Reuters will not own directly or indirectly any equity interest in NewCo or any of its subsidiaries other than the Preferred Shares.

2.2. Consents. Except for the Regulatory Approvals (as defined in Section 4.4), Reuters is not required to obtain any permit, authorization, consent or approval of or by, or make any notification to or filing with, (i) any multinational or supranational, federal, provincial, state, regional, municipal, local or other government or governmental body, (ii) any division, agent, agency, commission, board or authority of any government, governmental body, quasi-governmental or private body exercising any statutory, regulatory, expropriation or taxing authority under the authority of any government or governmental body covered under clause (i), (iii) any domestic, foreign or international judicial, quasi-judicial or administrative court, tribunal, commission, board, panel or arbitrator acting under the authority of any body or other entity under clause (i) or (ii) (each entity described under clause (i), (ii) and (iii), a “Governmental Entity”) or (iv) any other person or entity, in each case, in connection with the execution, delivery and performance by Reuters to this Agreement or the consummation by Reuters of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

4. Certain Covenants.

4.1. Confidentiality.

(a) Except to the extent required by applicable law, or stock exchange regulation or request, or as contemplated by the terms of this Agreement, each of Dow Jones and Reuters agrees not to, and agrees to cause its affiliates and NewCo and its affiliates not to, without prior written approval of the other parties, disclose to any person, or make any press release or other public announcement regarding, any of the terms or conditions of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the Unit Purchase Agreement or any of the other Transaction Documents, other than press releases to be issued by Dow Jones and/or Reuters promptly following the execution of this Agreement in the forms previously agreed to by the parties.

(b) After the Closing, Reuters agrees not to, and agrees to cause its affiliates not to, use for the benefit of Reuters or any of its affiliates, or disclose to any other person, except as set forth in Section 4.1(c), any information concerning (x) Dow Jones or its affiliates obtained by Reuters or its affiliates in connection with or relating to the negotiation or performance of this Agreement, the Unit Purchase Agreement or the other Transaction Documents and/or the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby and/or in connection with Dow Jones’ and its affiliates’ ownership in NewCo and transactions with NewCo prior to the Closing or (y) the Factiva Group; provided, however, such information shall not include information which (i) is or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of disclosure in breach of this or any other obligation of confidentiality of Reuters or its affiliates to the Factiva Group, Dow Jones or its affiliates, (ii) becomes available to Reuters or its affiliates after the Closing Date on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the Factiva Group, Dow Jones or its affiliates, which source did not have an obligation of confidentiality to the Factiva Group, Dow Jones or its affiliates or (iii) is developed by Reuters or its affiliates independently (including in connection with its editorial or reporting operations).

(c) After the Closing, Dow Jones agrees not to, and agrees to cause its affiliates (including the Factiva Group and NewCo) not to, use for the benefit of Dow Jones or any of its affiliates, or disclose to any other person any information concerning

- 8 -

Reuters and its affiliates obtained by Dow Jones or its affiliates in connection with or relating to the negotiation or performance of this Agreement, the Unit Purchase Agreement or the other Transaction Documents and/or the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby and/or in connection with Reuters’ and its affiliates’ ownership in NewCo and transactions with NewCo prior to the Closing; provided, however, such information shall not include information which (i) is or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of disclosure in breach of this or any other obligation of confidentiality of Dow Jones or its affiliates to Reuters and its affiliates, (ii) becomes available to Dow Jones or its affiliates after the Closing Date on a non-confidential basis from a source other than Reuters or its affiliates, which source did not have an obligation of confidentiality to Reuters or its affiliates or (iii) is developed by Dow Jones or its affiliates independently (including in connection with its editorial or reporting operations).

(d) Reuters and its affiliates or Dow Jones and its affiliates (each, a “Disclosing Party”) may disclose information required to be kept confidential hereunder to any their respective directors, advisors, employees, representatives (including without limitation, financial advisors, attorneys and accountants) or agents (the “Representatives”) (i) who need to know the information for the purpose of assisting or advising the Disclosing Party in connection with any matters relating to any information required to be kept confidential hereunder, (ii) who are informed by the Disclosing Party of the confidential nature of the information and (iii) who agree to act in accordance with the terms of this Section 4.1.

(e) In the event that the Disclosing Party or its Representatives are requested pursuant to, or required by, applicable law, regulation (including, but not limited to, applicable stock exchange, accounting, tax or Securities and Exchange Commission regulations) or legal process, to disclose any information required to be kept confidential hereunder, the Disclosing Party and its Representatives may furnish such information and shall have no liability hereunder; provided, however, that the Disclosing Party shall give Dow Jones or Reuters, as the case may be, prompt written notice of the information to be disclosed, use commercially reasonable efforts to limit such disclosure to the precise terms of such request and use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain an order or other reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded such information. Nothing herein shall limit Reuter’s or its affiliates’ ability to voluntarily disclose information regarding the Factiva Group to any tax authority consistent with its obligations or policy with regards to tax matters.

(f) Acknowledgements. Each of Reuters and Dow Jones (on its own behalf and on behalf of its affiliates) acknowledge and agree that money damages would not be a sufficient remedy for any breach of this Section 4.1 and that the other parties shall be entitled to specific performance and injunctive or other equitable relief as a remedy for any such breach, and each of Reuters and Dow Jones further agree to waive any requirement for the security or posting of any bond in connection with such remedy; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 4.1 shall be deemed as a consent to an injunction prohibiting the publication of any Dow Jones or Reuters product or publication

- 9 -

or any information therein. Such remedy shall not be deemed to be the exclusive remedy for breach of this Section 4.1 but shall be in addition to all other remedies available to Reuters, Dow Jones or DJBI at law or in equity.

4.2. Further Assurances. Reuters and Dow Jones each agree to cooperate with each other, and at the request of the other party, to execute and deliver any further instruments or documents and to take all such further action, including, without limitation, causing their respective affiliates and NewCo to take such actions, as the other party may reasonably request, in order to evidence or effectuate the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including the purchase and sale of the Shares) and to otherwise carry out the intent of the parties hereunder.

4.3. Access. From and after the date hereof, each of Reuters and Dow Jones shall, and shall cause their respective affiliates, NewCo and NewCo’s affiliates to, give Dow Jones and Reuters and their respective affiliates and representatives reasonable access (during regular business hours upon reasonable notice) to all of their books, contracts, commitments and records (including tax returns) that relate to the business, properties or operations of NewCo and its subsidiaries, as well as relevant personnel, as may from time to time be reasonably requested.

4.4. Necessary Filings and Consents. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, prior to the Closing Date, Dow Jones and Reuters shall, and, where applicable, shall cause their respective affiliates, NewCo and NewCo’s affiliates to, perform all of the obligations required or desirable to be performed by such persons, cooperate in connection therewith, and do all such other acts and things as may be necessary or desirable in order to consummate, as soon as reasonably practicable, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each of Dow Jones and Reuters shall, and, where appropriate shall cause their respective affiliates, NewCo and its affiliates to:

(a) apply for all Regulatory Approvals as soon as practicable and, upon applying, use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly obtain, such Regulatory Approvals;

(b) apply for and use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all other consents, approvals and authorizations reasonably requested by Dow Jones whether before or after the Closing (provided, however, that Reuters shall not be required to commence any litigation, offer or grant any non-de minimis accommodation or concession (financial or otherwise) to any third party or expend any non-de minimis amount of money); and

(c) to use commercially reasonable efforts to oppose, lift or rescind any injunction or restraining or other order against any party to this Agreement seeking to stop, or otherwise adversely affecting the ability of any party to this Agreement to perform and comply with their respective obligations under the Agreement.

4.5. Settlement of Intercompany Accounts.

(a) Reuters and Dow Jones agree to prepare and deliver a schedule of the Seller Settlement Amount and the Buyer Settlement Amount, calculated as of the Closing Date, five business days prior to Closing. To the extent that Reuters and Dow Jones are unable to agree on such schedule, each item in dispute shall be excluded from such schedule (the “Excluded Items”) for purposes of the payments to be made on the business day prior to the Closing Date set forth below (and, for the sake of clarity, any such Excluded Items shall be excluded from calculating the estimated Adjusted Working Capital at the Closing but shall be taken into account in calculating the Final Adjusted Working Capital). On the business day prior to the Closing Date, Dow Jones and Reuters agree that:

(i) If the Seller Settlement Amount is a positive number, Dow Jones and Reuters shall cause NewCo to pay to Seller the Seller Settlement Amount;

(ii) If the Seller Settlement Amount is a negative number, Seller shall pay to NewCo the Seller Settlement Amount;

(iii) If the Buyer Settlement Amount is a positive number, Dow Jones may elect to have NewCo pay to Buyer the Buyer Settlement Amount. If Dow Jones does not so elect, NewCo will be deemed to have paid such amount to Buyer for purposes of all purchase price adjustments set forth in Article 1 of this Agreement; and

(iv) If the Buyer Settlement Amount is a negative number, Dow Jones may elect to cause Buyer to pay to NewCo the Buyer Settlement Amount. If Dow Jones does not so elect, Buyer will be deemed to have paid such amount to NewCo for purposes of all calculations to be made under this Agreement.

Dow Jones and Reuters agree that all inter-company amounts included in the calculation of the Seller Settlement Amount (other than the Excluded Items) shall be deemed fully satisfied at Closing.

For the purpose of this Section 4.6(a) “Subsidiaries” shall mean direct or indirect, majority-owned subsidiaries of Reuters Group PLC.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 4.6(a) shall be deemed to prohibit Reuters, Reuters Group PLC or any of its Subsidiaries from:

- 12 -

(w) distributing their content to or through third parties, other than as may be expressly restricted under any other agreement between them and NewCo, Dow Jones or their affiliates;

(x) integrating any third-party services or products into or with Reuters Group services or products at the request of a customer;

(y) owning, solely as a passive investment, shares of capital stock or other interests of any entity, so long as, in the aggregate, Reuters Group do not thereby beneficially own in the aggregate five percent (5%) or more of the outstanding shares or other equity interests of such entity; or

(z) acquiring, whether by merger, consolidation, purchase of assets or stock or otherwise, of any business, entity or group of entities that engages in Restricted Services, provided that the gross revenue received by the business, entity or group of entities from the Restricted Services does not exceed twenty five percent (25%) of the total gross revenue of the business, entity or group of entities, as applicable, during the 12-month period prior to the acquisition of such business, entity or group of entities; provided, however that Reuters Group and its affiliates shall not add, or license in connection with or in contemplation of such acquisition, any news produced or owned by Reuters Group or its affiliates to Restricted Services engaged in or by such business, entity or group of entities during the Non-Competition Period.

(b) Non-Solicitation. Reuters hereby agrees that neither Reuters Group nor any of its affiliates shall, directly or indirectly, (i) from and after the date hereof until the end of the Non-Competition Period, solicit for employment any employee previously agreed to by Reuters and Dow Jones and (ii) from and after the date hereof until the end of the first anniversary of the Closing Date (the “No Hire Period”), hire any employee in the subset of employees in clause (i) previously agreed to by Reuters and Dow Jones. The foregoing provisions of this Section 4.7(b) will not apply to (x) general solicitations (including through the use of advertising or search firms) that does not target such employees, (y) the hiring of any employee (other than, during the No Hire Period, those employees in the subset of employees referred to in clause (ii) above) who approaches or initiates a discussion regarding employment with Reuters Group or any of its affiliates (including any discussions subsequent to such approach or initiation), including as a result of a solicitation permitted by clause (x) or (z), or (z) the solicitation of any such employee who is no longer employed by Dow Jones or its affiliates.

(c) Acknowledgements. Reuters acknowledges and agrees that money damages would not be a sufficient remedy for any breach of this Section 4.6 and that Dow Jones and DJBI shall be entitled to specific performance and injunctive or other equitable relief as a remedy for any such breach, and Reuters further agrees to waive any

- 13 -

requirement for the security or posting of any bond in connection with such remedy. Such remedy shall not be deemed to be the exclusive remedy for breach of this Section 4.6 but shall be in addition to all other remedies available to Dow Jones, or DJBI, at law or in equity.

(d) Savings Clause. If any of the restrictions contained in this Section 4.6 is found by any court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable because it is too broad or extends for too long of a period, then such restriction shall nevertheless remain effective but shall be considered amended to have the broadest terms or shortest period of time which such court may find enforceable.

4.7. Taxes. For one year after the Closing, Dow Jones, DJBI and Reuters agree not to take any action (and Dow Jones and DJBI agree to cause NewCo not to take any action) that would cause the Dow Jones Contribution (as that term is defined in the Formation and Contribution Agreement) and the Reuters Contribution (as that term is defined in the Formation and Contribution Agreement) to fail to qualify as a transaction governed by Section 351 of the Code, it being understood that any transaction involving a purchase by Dow Jones (or offer to purchase by Dow Jones) of the Preferred Shares shall not be a transaction prohibited by this Section 4.7.

4.8. Software Licenses. Each of Dow Jones and Reuters agree that where reasonably practicable Reuters will include the Company and NewCo as a licensee under the existing Reuters license for the Licenses (as such term is defined in the SLA Agreement) (the “Software Licenses”) and sufficient to provide the Company and NewCo or their respective subsidiaries with the software and other products as are currently provided to the Company under the Licenses; however the Company and NewCo will be required to pay to Reuters or the relevant member of the Reuters Group any additional license fees payable by Reuters under the relevant licenses (approved by and reasonably acceptable to Dow Jones) in relation to such use. To the extent that Reuters is unable to include the Company and NewCo as a licensee for the relevant Software Licenses, the Company and NewCo will use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain and license the relevant Software Licenses directly (the “Substitute Licenses”)

“Baseline Working Capital” is equal to the sum of the Adjusted Working Capital as of the end of each of the twelve months ending on the latest calendar month prior to the Closing for which a balance sheet of the Company has been prepared and delivered to Dow Jones and Reuters (calculated before giving effect to the transactions contemplated by the Formation and Contribution Agreement and provided that any intercompany accounts between the Company and its subsidiaries, on the one hand, and NewCo and its subsidiaries, on the other hand, are eliminated through consolidation) divided by twelve, and then multiplied by the Unit Allocation. The agreed Adjusted Working Capital amounts as at the end of each of the twelve calendar months preceding the date of this agreement are set out on Schedule II hereto.

“Buyer Settlement Amount” means (i) all amounts owed by the Company or its subsidiaries to Dow Jones or its affiliates, minus (ii) all amounts owed by Dow Jones or its affiliates to the Company or its subsidiaries (other than the loan due from Dow Jones to Factiva UK (the “Dow Jones Loan”)), in each case settled or deemed settled in accordance with Section 4.5 of this Agreement.

“Pension Fund Adjustment” means an amount of Dollars equal to £550,000 (based on the noon buying rate in the City of New York for cable transfer as certified for customs’ purposes by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York for the business day immediately proceeding the Closing Date), representing fifty percent (50%) of the Pension Deficit Contribution.

The allocation of the Total Value determined pursuant to either (i) or (ii) above shall be final, non-appealable and binding on the parties hereto, absent manifest error or fraud and shall be referred to herein as the “Final Allocation”. Dow Jones and Reuters each agree to report (and to cause their respective affiliates to report) the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the Share Purchase Agreement and the other Transaction Documents for all purposes (including all tax and accounting purposes) in a manner consistent with the Final Allocation except to the extent a different allocation or reporting is required by changes after the date hereof to the applicable accounting or legal rules or principles.

If Dow Jones does not pay such amount, Dow Jones will be deemed to have paid such amount to Factiva UK in cash for purposes of calculating the purchase price adjustments set forth in Article 1 of this Agreement as well as for purposes of the distribution from Factiva UK as set forth under Section 4.5(b); provided, that nothing in this Section 4.5(a) (including without limitation deemed receipt of any amount by Factiva UK from Dow Jones) shall require Factiva UK to declare or pay a dividend or make a distribution of any amount which exceeds the maximum amount permissible in accordance with English law.

(b) Distribution by Factiva UK.

UK on the business day prior to the Closing Date, subject to Factiva UK in its sole discretion determining (i) not to distribute such maximum amount to the extent cash is required to remain at Factiva UK for normal operations and (ii) to settle intercompany accounts between Factiva UK and the Company in favor of the Company to the extent the normal operations of Factiva UK do not require cash that was not permitted under English law to be distributed to the Company. On the same day the aforementioned amounts are distributed or paid to the Company by Factiva UK, the Company shall distribute such amounts received by the Company (and any additional cash determined by the Company in its sole discretion) to its members as a distribution, subject to the Company in its sole discretion determining not to distribute such amount to the extent cash is required to remain at the Company for normal operations.

(c) Settlement of Intercompany Accounts. Reuters and Dow Jones agree to prepare and deliver a schedule of the Seller Settlement Amount and the Buyer Settlement Amount, calculated as of the Closing Date, five business days prior to Closing. To the extent that Reuters and Dow Jones are unable to agree on such schedule, each item in dispute shall be excluded from such schedule (the “Excluded Items”) for purposes of the payments to be made on the business day prior to the Closing Date set forth below (and, for the sake of clarity, any such Excluded Items shall be excluded from calculating the estimated Adjusted Working Capital at the Closing but shall be taken into account in calculating the Final Adjusted Working Capital). On the business day prior to the Closing Date, Dow Jones and Reuters agree that:

(i) If the Seller Settlement Amount is a positive number, Dow Jones and Reuters shall cause the Company to pay to Seller the Seller Settlement Amount;

(ii) If the Seller Settlement Amount is a negative number, Seller shall pay to the Company the Seller Settlement Amount;

(iii) If the Buyer Settlement Amount is a positive number, Dow Jones may elect to have the Company pay to Buyer the Buyer Settlement Amount. If Dow Jones does not so elect, the Company will be deemed to have paid such amount to Buyer for purposes of all purchase price adjustments set forth in Article 1 of this Agreement; and

(iv) If the Buyer Settlement Amount is a negative number, Dow Jones may elect to cause Buyer to pay to the Company the Buyer Settlement Amount. If Dow Jones does not so elect, Buyer will be deemed to have paid such amount to the Company for purposes of all calculations to be made under this Agreement.

Dow Jones and Reuters agree that all inter-company amounts included in the calculation of the Seller Settlement Amount (other than the Excluded Items) shall be deemed fully satisfied at Closing.

(e) Termination of Agreements. Except for this Agreement and the Transaction Documents and for contracts, arrangements or agreements indicated on Schedule 2.6 as remaining in effect after the Closing, each of the Company, Dow Jones and Reuters agrees (on behalf of itself and its affiliates) that all the contracts, arrangements and agreements included on Schedule 2.6 shall be deemed terminated as of the Closing without any further action being required to be taken. Reuters acknowledges and agrees that, as of the Closing Date, after giving effect to all payments or obligations included in final Adjusted Working Capital (which will be treated in accordance with Section 1.6) or included in the Seller Settlement Amount (which will be treated in accordance with Section 4.5(c)), no further payment or obligation will be owed by the Company, NewCo or any of their respective controlled affiliates to any of Reuters and its affiliates, except in accordance with this Agreement, the Transaction Documents or in accordance with the contracts, arrangements and agreements either indicated on Schedule 2.6 as remaining in effect after the Closing or not required to be indicated on Schedule 2.6 pursuant to the terms of Section 2.6. Prior and subsequent to the Closing, Reuters and Dow Jones agree to consult with each other in good faith whether (and on what terms) the contracts, arrangement and agreements not required to be indicated on Schedule 2.6 pursuant to the terms of Section 2.6 will remain in effect after the Closing.

Reuters and Dow Jones each agree to change the structure of any of these transactions suggested by the other if such change (i) is consistent with the purpose of such transactions and (ii) would have at most a de minimis adverse effect, financial or otherwise, on it and its affiliates (including, in the case of Dow Jones, the Factiva Group).

4.6. Pension.

(a) UK Pensions.

(i) Section 75 Pension Liability. Dow Jones and Reuters acknowledge that it will be necessary for an immediate payment or payments to be made (based on the assumption that the relevant liabilities will be discharged by the purchase of annuities) under Section 75 of the UK Pensions Act 1995 (as amended) as a result of one or more members of the Factiva Group ceasing to participate in the RPF as a result of the acquisition of the Company Units hereunder (the “Section 75 Liability”).

(ii) Notification. Factiva UK will notify Reuters and Dow Jones of the Section 75 Liability immediately following receipt by Factiva UK of notification of the amount of the Section 75 Liability (the date on which payment to the RPF trustee is made referred to as the “Payment Date”).

(iii) Indemnity in respect of Section 75 Liability. Reuters shall pay to Dow Jones on the Payment Date an amount equal to the aggregate of (x) 50% of that part of the Section 75 Liability which relates to liabilities attributable to periods of employment with the Factiva Group, and (y) that part of the Section 75 Liability which is attributable to orphan liabilities, being any liabilities of the RPF taken into account in calculating the Section 75 Liability other than those mentioned in clause (x) above.

(iv) any matter in relation to which Reuters has the benefit of indemnification under this Agreement, the Services Agreement or the Transaction Documents.

(e) Seller Benefit Liabilities. Without duplication and subject to the reimbursement provisions, if any, of the Services Agreement (only with respect to the period prior to the Closing) and this Agreement, Reuters and its affiliates shall pay all their liabilities and discharge all their obligations that relate to the period prior to the Closing, including, but not limited to salaries, variable remuneration and other benefits, pensions, contributions to pension funds, tax withholding, social security contributions and any other contributions to authorities, insurance companies or any other institutions relating to (x) Seconded Employees, (y) Reuters Plan Employees and (z) former employees of Reuters or its affiliates who performed services for the Factiva Group, in each case, under any Reuters Benefit Plan, and shall indemnify and hold Dow Jones and its affiliates harmless in respect thereof.

(i) any substantial change to the working conditions of any of the Reuters Plan Employees (as defined below) to their material detriment which is made, proposed or anticipated to take effect after Closing; and

- 20 -

(ii) any claim in respect of a failure by the relevant member of the Factiva Group to provide retirement or death-in-service benefits for or in respect of any Reuters Plan Employee of the same or equivalent level as that person would have been entitled to under the Reuters UK Pension Plans immediately before Closing;

provided, however, that this Section 4.6(f) shall not apply to Losses arising out of (x) arrangements between a Seller Indemnified Party and an individual or a select group of management employees (other than the standard benefit scales of the Reuters UK Pension Plans), or (y) acts or omissions of any Seller Indemnified Party (other than those contemplated by this Agreement and the Transaction Documents).

A “Reuters Plan Employee” means a current or former employee or an employee as of the Closing of any member of the Factiva Group who participates in, or is entitled to wages or benefits under, any employee benefit or employment arrangement sponsored or maintained by Reuters or any of its affiliates (a “Reuters Benefit Plan”).

Employees and former employees of the Factiva Group who hold options to purchase Reuters shares under the Save As You Earn Plan shall be treated as a “good leavers” under the Plan, namely that mature options held by them will remain exercisable in full until six months following the Closing Date, and non-matured options will be exercisable for a pro rata number of shares based on the number of months elapsed from the start date of the relevant savings period. Alternatively, an employee or former employee may close his savings account and receive cash.

(h) Plan Transition. Dow Jones and the Company, shall use all commercially reasonable measures to ensure that all necessary arrangements shall have been made, as soon as reasonably possible after the date hereof, so that all those employees of the Company who participate in the RPF who accept the offer to do so (the “Transferring Members”) will, on the Closing Date, participate in a Dow Jones or other retirement plan or plans, and Reuters will offer all reasonable cooperation to Dow Jones and the Company to make such arrangements. Reuters and Dow Jones shall make appropriate arrangements so that employees of the Factiva Group who participate in any such Dow Jones plan or plans and who are remunerated through the Reuters payroll system may have contributions made by Reuters on their behalf to such plan or plans.

- 30 -

defined in the Contribution Agreement dated as of May 17, 1999 by and among Dow Jones, Reuters Holdings and the Company, the “1999 Contribution Agreement”) or such Seller Indemnified Parties’ actions as an officer of the Company or trustee/administrator of any Company Benefit Plan (as defined in the 1999 Contribution Agreement) to the fullest extent permitted by law.

(e) (i) Factiva UK, Reuters and certain of their affiliates were members of the same UK value added tax (“VAT”) group (the “VAT Group”), pursuant to Section 43 of the UK Value Added Tax Act 1994 (the “VATA”) from July 1, 1999 to June 30, 2004 (the “Group Period”). All such members of the VAT Group, other than Factiva UK and its subsidiaries, are referred to as the “Reuters VAT Group”. Factiva UK and its subsidiaries are referred to as the “Factiva VAT Group”.

(ii) Dow Jones hereby agrees to indemnify the Reuters Sellers for an amount equivalent to any VAT due to HM Revenue & Customs (or HM Customs & Excise as it was previously known) (“HMRC”) with respect to supplies deemed made by the representative member of the VAT Group during the Group Period that a member of the Reuters VAT Group pays as a result of being jointly and severally liable for such VAT and which were attributable to the business activities of any member of the Factiva VAT Group (and which would have been supplies for VAT purposes of a member of the Factiva VAT Group itself except for the provisions of Section 43(1)(b) of the VATA).

(iii) The Reuters Sellers hereby agree to indemnify Dow Jones for an amount equivalent to any VAT due to HMRC with respect to supplies made by the representative member of the VAT Group during the Group Period that any member of the Factiva VAT Group pays as a result of being jointly and severally liable for such VAT and which were attributable to the business activities of a member of the Reuters VAT Group (and which would have been supplies for VAT purposes of a member of the Reuters VAT Group itself except for the provisions of Section 43(1)(b) of the VATA).

(iv) Factiva UK or Dow Jones shall notify Reuters, and Reuters shall notify Factiva UK and Dow Jones, in writing within 30 days of the party required to give notice becoming aware that HMRC may assert a claim that could give rise to an indemnification claim under clauses (ii) or (iii) of this Section 7.2(e). If the claim does not relate exclusively to the business activities of a member of the Factiva VAT Group, then Reuters shall have the right to defend against HMRC’s claim with counsel of its choice; provided that so long as Reuters is conducting the defense of any such claim, (A) Factiva UK or Dow Jones may retain separate counsel, at Factiva UK’s or Dow Jones’ sole expense, and participate in (e.g., attend meetings and offer comments and suggestions on) the defense of the claim, and (B) Reuters will not settle or compromise the claim without the consent of Factiva UK, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld. If the claim relates exclusively to the business activities of a member of

- 31 -

the Factiva VAT Group, Factiva UK shall have the right to defend against HMRC’s claim with counsel of its choice provided that so long as Factiva UK is conducting the defense of any claims covered by this Section 7.2(d), (A) Reuters may retain separate counsel, at Reuters’ sole expense, and participate in (e.g., attend meetings and offer comments and suggestions on) the defense of the claim, and (B) Factiva UK will not settle or compromise (and Dow Jones will cause members of the Factiva VAT Group not to settle or compromise) the claim without the consent of Reuters, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld.

(f) The amount of any indemnity payment made pursuant to this Agreement shall be reduced by any tax benefits, if any, that are actually realized by the party receiving the payment. For these purposes, the tax detriment associated with receiving the indemnification payment shall be taken into account in determining whether the party receiving the payment has realized an actual tax benefit.

7.3. Third Party Claims. In the event that any Buyer Indemnified Party or Seller Indemnified Party desires to make a claim against the Reuters Sellers, the Company and its subsidiaries, or Dow Jones or DJBI, as the case may be, in each case in connection with any third party litigation, arbitration, action suit, proceeding, claim, investigation or demand at any time instituted against or made upon it for which it may seek indemnification under Section 7.2 (other than 7.2(e)) (a “Third Party Claim”):

(a) The party that seeks indemnification (the “Indemnified Party”) shall promptly notify Reuters, the Company or Dow Jones, as the case may be (the “Indemnifying Party”), of such Third Party Claim and the Indemnified Party’s claim for indemnification with respect thereto promptly after obtaining notice of such Third Party Claim; provided, that failure to promptly give such notice will not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations under this Article 7, except (and then only to the extent that) the Indemnifying Party has actually been prejudiced thereby.

(b) The Indemnifying Party will have the right to assume the defense of the Third Party Claim with counsel of its choice reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party by written notice to the Indemnified Party within twenty (20) days after the Indemnifying Party has received notice of the Third Party Claim.

(c) The Indemnifying Party shall not, in the defense of such claim, consent to the entry of any judgment (other than a judgment of dismissal on the merits without costs) or enter into any settlement without the written consent of the Indemnified Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned, unless (i) there is no finding or admission of any violation of any applicable law by the Indemnified Party and (ii) the sole relief provided is monetary damages as to which the Indemnifying Party shall pay.

(d) If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of the Indemnified Party in connection with such Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel at its own expense and to participate in the defense of such Third Party Claim, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense

- 32 -

of the Indemnified Party, unless (i) the Indemnifying Party shall have failed promptly to assume the defense thereof and employ counsel as provided above or (ii) the named parties to any such Third Party Claim (including impleaded parties) include the Indemnified Party or its affiliates and the Indemnifying Party or its affiliates, and the Indemnified Party shall have been advised by counsel that there may be one or more legal defenses available to it that are different from or in addition to those available to the Indemnifying Party, provided that the Indemnifying Party shall not in any event be responsible hereunder for the fees and expenses of more than one law firm retained by all Indemnified Parties in connection with any Third Party Claim in the same jurisdiction.

(e) If the Indemnifying Party does not assume the defense of a Third Party Claim after receipt of notice of such Third Party Claim from the Indemnified Party under clause (a) above, the Indemnified Party may defend against such claim in such manner as it reasonably deems appropriate. The Indemnified Party may not settle such claim without the written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed, or conditioned.

(f) The Indemnified Party shall cooperate in good faith with the Indemnifying Party and its representatives (including, without limitation, its counsel) in the investigation, negotiation, settlement, trial and/or defense of any Third Party Claim (and any appeal arising therefrom). The parties shall cooperate with each other in any notifications to and information requests of any insurers.

Except for the properties and assets specifically excluded under Section 1.2 of this Agreement, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, two business days prior to the Closing (as defined in the Unit Purchase Agreement) of the transactions contemplated by the Unit Purchase Agreement (the “Non-US Purchase Closing”) and the Share Purchase Agreement (the “US Purchase Closing” collectively, the “Purchase Closings”) and subject to Dow Jones and Reuters agreeing that all of the conditions to the Purchase Closings have been satisfied or are capable of being satisfied, Factiva will transfer, assign, convey and deliver to LLC, and LLC will acquire and accept from Factiva, all of Factiva’s right, title and interest in and to the property, plant, machinery and equipment, vehicles, spare parts, inventories, contract rights, business (as a going concern), goodwill, cash (to the extent reasonably required to satisfy the working capital requirements of the Factiva US Business, as determined by Factiva, in its reasonable discretion), prepaid accounts and other assets (tangible, intangible or of any other nature), wherever located, and used or held for use exclusively or primarily in connection with the Factiva US Business (including assets which were previously used or held for use in connection with the Factiva US Business and which are still owned by Factiva and are accounted for in the property records or carried on the books of the Factiva US Business (even if accounted for or carried at zero value)) (each of the foregoing items being herein referred to as the “Assets”). The Dow Jones Parties and the Reuters Parties acknowledge their mutual intent that the Assets to be contributed to LLC include all assets of the Company that would be treated as “effectively connected income” to a Reuters Party if held by the Company at the time of the Non-US Purchase Closing. For the purposes of this Agreement, the term “business day” shall mean any day excluding Saturday, Sunday and any day which is a legal holiday under the laws of the State of New York or in London, England or is a day on which banking institutions located in such state or city are authorized or required by law or other governmental action to close.

1.5 Assignment of Contracts, Rights and Obligations. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, this Agreement shall not constitute an agreement to assign any Contract, or rights or benefits thereunder, if an attempted assignment of any such Contract, or such rights or benefits thereunder without the consent of a third party thereto, would constitute a breach of the applicable Contract or default thereunder, cause or permit the acceleration or termination thereof or in any way materially and adversely affect the rights or benefits of LLC or Factiva thereunder or the right of LLC to conduct all or part of the Factiva US Business in the manner and on the terms presently enjoyed by Factiva.

(b) The Indemnifying Party will have the right to assume the defense of the Third Party Claim with counsel of its choice reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party by written notice to the Indemnified Party within twenty (20) days after the Indemnifying Party has received notice of the Third Party Claim.

(d) If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of the Indemnified Party in connection with such Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel at its own expense and to participate in the defense of such Third Party Claim, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnified Party, unless (i) the Indemnifying Party shall have failed promptly to assume the defense thereof and employ counsel as provided above or (ii) the named parties to any such Third Party Claim (including impleaded parties) include the Indemnified Party or its affiliates and the Indemnifying Party or its affiliates, and the Indemnified Party shall have been advised by counsel that there may be one or more legal defenses available to it that are different from or in addition to those available to the Indemnifying Party, provided that the Indemnifying Party shall not in any event be responsible hereunder for the fees and expenses of more than one law firm retained by all Indemnified Parties in connection with any Third Party Claim in the same jurisdiction.

(e) If the Indemnifying Party does not assume the defense of a Third Party Claim after receipt of notice of such Third Party Claim from the Indemnified Party under the first paragraph of this Section 6.2 above, the Indemnified Party may defend against such claim in such manner as it reasonably deems appropriate. The Indemnified Party may not settle such claim without the written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed, or conditioned.

(f) The Indemnified Party shall cooperate in good faith with the Indemnifying Party and its representatives (including, without limitation, its counsel) in the
