included therein, are and shall remain the sole and exclusive property of ICE and/or the Thirdparty
Providers. The Services are compiled, prepared, revised, selected and arranged by ICE

Third-party Providers by means of equitable relief (including, but not limited to, injunctive relief) in
addition to any other rights and remedies that may be available.
c) Third-party Provider Terms and Conditions. Subscriber agrees and acknowledges that to
the extent Subscriber is accessing or using any portion of the Services provided by a Third Party
Provider, such Third-party Provider may enforce its rights against Subscriber as an intended
third-party beneficiary of this Agreement, even though such Third-party Provider is not a party to
this Agreement. Subscriber shall, where applicable, and as required to receive certain portions of

(unless otherwise stated therein), plus all applicable value-added, sales, use and similar taxes,
within thirty (30) days after the date of ICE’s invoice. These fees and charges shall be due and
payable by Subscriber to ICE regardless of whether Subscriber exercises the rights granted
under this Agreement. Subscriber acknowledges that if applicable, it shall be responsible for all
applicable Third-party Provider Fees billed to ICE or directly to Subscriber by the Third-party
Providers that result from Subscriber’s access to or use of the Services. ICE may increase its

fees and charges for any Service at any time after the Initial Term by providing advance written
notice to Subscriber as set forth in Section 14(f).

browser), and connectivity needed to use the Services.
c) ICE may assess a late charge at a rate of one percent (1%) per month on all amounts
due and not paid within thirty (30) days of the date of ICE’s invoice until the time of payment.
Subscriber’s failure to pay amounts when due, constitutes a material breach. In addition to all
other rights and remedies available to ICE at law or in equity, ICE also may suspend delivery of
the Services or any component thereof for as long as any amount remains unpaid after such thirty
(30) day period.
8. TERM. This Agreement, will continue in force and effect for as long as the Subscriber is using
the Services, unless and until terminated: (i) by either party upon thirty (30) days’ written notice to the
other, unless stated otherwise in the applicable Product Activation Form; or (ii) for the reasons set forth in

Section 9 below. Termination of this Agreement shall automatically terminate any applicable Product
Activation Forms.

to Subscriber, temporarily or permanently cease to operate the Services, temporarily or permanently
cease to make certain Software Services or Data Services available, or suspend, terminate or restrict
Subscriber’s utilization of the Services, in each case as ICE determines is necessary to protect its
intellectual property rights, reputation, compliance with applicable law and regulations or the integrity,
operation or functioning of the Services. Subscriber acknowledges that its utilization of the Software
Services and Data Services may be monitored by ICE for its own purposes, including, without limitation,
for purposes of maintaining the functional and operational integrity and performance of the Software
Services and Data Services, and for purposes of complying with applicable laws and regulations.
b) This Agreement may be terminated for the additional reasons set forth below:

Subscriber’s breach of Sections 3., 4., 6., 13., 14(e) or 14.(g) of this Agreement.
ii) Either party may terminate this Agreement in the event of a breach thereof which is not

shall not take effect if the breaching party cures or corrects the breach within such ten (10) day
notice period.
iii) Either party may terminate this Agreement upon written notice to the other if the other
party is adjudicated as bankrupt or if a petition in bankruptcy is filed by or against the other party
or if the other party makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors or an arrangement pursuant
to any bankruptcy act or insolvency laws.

pursuant to licenses granted to ICE by Third-party Providers is subject to automatic termination
without liability on the part of ICE if such licenses are terminated for any reason.

ICE to Subscriber and Subscriber’s use of the Services. Upon termination for any reason set forth herein
by either party, Subscriber shall (a) cease all use of the Services provided under this Agreement; and (b)

expunge such Services and any portion or copies thereof from all of Subscriber’s electronic systems
except for those records required for regulatory compliance purposes or for the purpose of an audit as set
forth in Section 10. below. At ICE’s request, Subscriber shall certify to ICE in writing that Subscriber has
fully complied with the foregoing expungement requirement.
10. RECORD KEEPING; AUDIT. Subscriber shall at all times during the Term of this Agreement and
for not less than a period of twenty-four (24) month period thereafter, maintain complete and accurate
records (including applicable data in electronic format) with respect to access to and usage of the
Services for the most recent thirty-six (36) months. During the Term and for a twenty-four (24) month
period thereafter, ICE shall have the right, during normal business hours and upon reasonable notice to
Subscriber, to (a) audit and review relevant portions of those records; and (b) audit the manner of access
to and usage of the Services, in each case to confirm that fees and charges have been accurately
determined and that restrictions on use and access have been observed. Subscriber agrees and
acknowledges that to the extent Subscriber is accessing or using any portion of the Services provided by
a Third-party Provider, such Third-party Provider may require Subscriber to comply with additional record
keeping and audit requirements. Subscriber shall, where applicable, and as required to receive certain
portions of the Services, comply with such additional record keeping and audit requirements, which are
referred to in this Agreement and the applicable Product Activation Form and constitute an integral part
thereof. To the extent required by a Third-party Provider, such Third-party Provider shall have the right,
during the Term and following termination or expiration of this Agreement, during normal business hours
and upon reasonable notice to Subscriber, to (a) audit and review relevant portions of those records; and
(b) audit the manner of access to and usage of the Services, in each case to confirm that fees and
charges have been accurately determined and that restrictions on use and access have been observed.
ICE’s or the Third-party Providers’ failure to conduct an audit pursuant to this Section 10 shall not relieve
Subscriber from its responsibilities to comply fully with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
Subscriber agrees to permit ICE or its representatives and the Third-party Providers or their
representatives to periodically inspect, at Subscriber’s Authorized Sites and during reasonable hours and
at reasonable intervals, the network on or by which any portion of the Services are accessed for purposes
of establishing compliance with the terms of this Agreement. In the event of such an onsite audit
undertaken by ICE at Subscriber’s Authorized Site, ICE shall liaise with Subscriber to outline an
implementation plan to ensure Subscriber’s security protocols and mandatory and/or contractual data
security obligations are met in relation to the right of inspection and audit. ICE acknowledges that
Subscriber can redact all personal information. The costs of any such audit and/or inspection shall be
borne by ICE; provided however, if such audit and/or inspection reveal an underpayment to ICE of five
percent (5%) or more, Subscriber shall reimburse ICE for its costs and expenses in conducting such audit
and/or inspection.

INFORMATION AND/OR DATA DELIVERED TO IT VIA SERVICES; AND (2) IT HAS

MADE BY ICE, ITS AFFILIATES, OR ITS THIRD PARTY PROVIDERS IN MAKING SUCH
DETERMINATION.
b) SUBSCRIBER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT NEITHER THE SERVICES
NOR ANY OF THE INFORMATION OBTAINED BY OR THROUGH THE SERVICES ARE
INTENDED TO SUPPLY INVESTMENT, FINANCIAL, TAX OR LEGAL ADVICE. A REFERENCE

REGARDING THE NATURE, POTENTIAL VALUE, OR SUITABILITY OF ANY PARTICULAR

TO THE SERVICES OR TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE BROUGHT BY SUBSCRIBER MORE

the event that ICE is determined to be liable to Subscriber for any cause, Subscriber expressly
agrees that in entering into this Agreement, ICE’s aggregate liability, for any damages or losses
under all causes of action, will not exceed the greater of: (i) fifty thousand USD ($50,000); or (ii)
fees paid and payable by Subscriber to ICE under this Agreement for the Service in question in
the three (3) months such liability is alleged to have arisen. The foregoing limitations shall apply
even if the Subscriber’s remedies under this Agreement fail of their essential purpose.
g) If a third-party claim or litigation is made or brought against Subscriber alleging that ICE
Proprietary Data as provided to Subscriber by ICE infringes upon a copyright, database right,
trademark, or U.S. patent, ICE shall indemnify and hold harmless Subscriber against those
damages, liabilities, and costs (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) that are directly incurred by
Subscriber as the result of such third-party claim or litigation, provided, however, that
Subscriber’s use of the Services is in compliance with the terms and conditions of this

8
Agreement, and subject to the liability limitations and caps set forth herein. ICE shall have the
sole authority to defend or settle such claim. ICE will have no obligation under this Section or
otherwise for any infringement claim based on or arising out of: (i) any modification to the
Services made by someone other than ICE or its authorized agents; (ii) any combination or use of
the Services with any other software, hardware, data, or other materials or information not
furnished by ICE; and/or (iii) any breach of this Agreement. If the Services become, or ICE

expense: (x) replace or modify the Services, or any portion thereof, so that they become noninfringing;
(y) obtain for Subscriber a license to continue using the infringing part of the Services,
or (z) terminate this Agreement as to the infringing part of the Service. The foregoing obligations
are conditioned on the Subscriber providing ICE with prompt written notice of the claim for which
indemnity is claimed, giving ICE sole control of the defense thereof and any related settlement
negotiations, and cooperating and assisting (at ICE’s expense) with ICE’s efforts to defend or
settle the claim. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, ICE’s maximum cumulative
liability to Subscriber under this Section 11(g) shall not exceed One Million USD ($1,000,000) in
the aggregate, regardless of the number of indemnification claims that may be made hereunder.
In the event a third-party claim or litigation is made or brought against Subscriber alleging that a
Third-party Provider data or service as provided to Subscriber by ICE infringes such third party
Intellectual Property Right, ICE shall indemnify Subscriber to the same extent ICE is indemnified
by the Third-party Provider in question, or shall assign to the benefit of Subscriber the
indemnification right afforded to ICE, if applicable. The foregoing states ICE’s entire liability and
Subscriber’s sole and exclusive remedies for infringement claims and actions of any kind.
h) THE FOREGOING LIMITATIONS OF ICE’S LIABILITY SHALL NOT APPLY IN
RESPECT OF (I) DEATH OR PERSONAL INJURY OF A THIRD PARTY TO THE EXTENT
CAUSED BY ICE WILLFUL OR NEGLIGENT ACTS; AND (II) FRAUD OR WILFUL
MISCONDUCT.

e) Assignment; Change of Control. Subscriber shall not assign or transfer this
Agreement without the prior written consent of ICE, and any attempted assignment or transfer shall be
null and void and shall constitute a material breach of this Agreement. In addition to and notwithstanding
the foregoing, if the ownership of Subscriber at any time shall pass out of the majority control of its thencurrent
owners by sale of stock or assets, merger or otherwise during the Term, Subscriber shall notify
ICE in writing of such change of control event no later than thirty (30) days following the effective date of
any such event. ICE shall then have the right to terminate this Agreement by providing a written notice to
Subscriber within sixty (60) days following the receipt of such notice of change of control, if in ICE’s
reasonable opinion the new owner of Subscriber: (i) is a competitor of ICE; or (ii) presents a substantial
risk to ICE’s reputation, intellectual property rights, or ability to collect payment hereunder. If ICE elects
not to exercise the foregoing termination right, any successor-in-interest to the Agreement as a result of
the change of control shall assume all rights and obligations of Subscriber under the Agreement and shall
be responsible for adhering to the terms thereof. ICE may assign all or part of its rights and obligations
under this Agreement to any of its Affiliates or to any entity which succeeds to all or substantially all of the
assets and business of ICE, provided that, in the case of any such assignment by ICE, the assignee
agrees in writing to assume the obligations under, and to be bound by the provisions of, this Agreement
that have been assigned. On the effective date of any valid assignment pursuant to this Section 14, the
assignor shall be released from all obligations and liabilities arising under this Agreement or, in case of a
partial assignment by ICE, from all obligations and liabilities arising from the parts of this Agreement that
have been assigned.
f) Entire Agreement; Modification or Amendment. This Agreement, taken together with
(i) the applicable Product Activation Form(s), if any, (ii) applicable Additional Terms, if any, and (iii) any
Annexes to this Agreement, represents the entire agreement between the parties with respect to its
subject matter and supersedes all previous agreements, representations, discussions, understandings or
writings between the parties with respect to its subject matter. ICE may amend this Agreement at any
time by posting amendments on ICE’s website at http://www.theice.com, and any such amendments,
including fee increases, will be prospectively binding on Subscriber effective ten (10) days from the date
of such posting. Notwithstanding the foregoing, ICE will provide thirty (30) days’ prior notice, through
electronic or other direct communication with Subscriber, of any such amendments that are likely to
materially and adversely affect Subscriber or its rights or obligations hereunder. Subscriber’s use of the
Services after the effective date of any such amendment shall constitute Subscriber’s ratification of, and
agreement to, any such amendment. If ICE elects to require Subscriber to acknowledge and agree to an
amendment, such amendment will not become effective until Subscriber has done so in the manner
specified by ICE.
g) Compliance with Law. Subscriber will comply with any and all laws, rules, regulations
or orders applicable to Subscriber’s receipt of and use of the Services.
