Introductory Note

On October 1, 2009, Metavante Technologies, Inc (“Metavante”) completed its merger (the “Merger”) with and into Cars Holdings, LLC (renamed Metavante Holdings, LLC as of the effective time of the Merger) (“Merger Sub”), as a result of which Metavante has been acquired by, and is wholly owned by, Fidelity National Information Services, Inc. (“FIS”). The Merger was effected pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of March 31, 2009, by and among FIS, Merger Sub and Metavante (the “Merger Agreement”). The Merger became effective at 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time on October 1, 2009 (the “Effective Time”).

 

Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

In connection with the consummation of the Merger, at the Effective Time, the amendment (the “Credit Agreement Amendment”), dated as of April 30, 2009, to the credit agreement, originally entered into as of November 1, 2007, among Metavante, Metavante Corporation (the “Borrower”), JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent, Lehman Commercial Paper Inc. and Baird Financial Corporation, as Documentation Agents, Morgan Stanley Senior Funding Inc., as Syndication Agent, and the lenders party thereto (the “Credit Agreement”), became effective.

Under the terms of the Credit Agreement Amendment, in connection with the completion of the Merger, the outstanding indebtedness under the Credit Agreement was restructured as follows: (i) the Borrower delivered written notice to the Administrative Agent that it was permanently terminating all revolving credit commitments under the Credit Agreement, effective as October 1, 2009 (no advances were outstanding under such revolving credit commitments at the time of termination thereof), (ii) an aggregate principal amount of $500,000,000 of term loans held by those lenders who consented to the Credit Agreement Amendment (the “Consenting Term Lenders” and, together with all lenders holding revolving credit commitments prior to the termination of such commitments, the “Consenting Lenders”) was exchanged for an identical principal amount of term loans under FIS’ existing credit facility pursuant to the terms of a debt exchange and joinder agreement dated as of October 1, 2009 by and among FIS, Merger Sub, the Borrower, FIS, as loan purchaser, the joinder lenders listed therein, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent under the FIS credit agreement, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent under the Credit Agreement (the “Debt Exchange and Joinder Agreement”), (iii) FIS purchased an aggregate principal amount of $423,750,000 of the remaining term loans held by the Consenting Term Lenders at par in cash and (iv) an aggregate principal amount of $800,000,000 of term loans (which was the amount of term loans that remained outstanding under the Credit Agreement after giving effect to the transactions described in the foregoing clauses (ii) and (iii)) was re-priced (the transactions described in the foregoing clauses (i) through (iv), collectively, the “Restructuring Transactions”). The term loans purchased or exchanged by FIS were immediately cancelled for all purposes of the Credit Agreement and are no longer outstanding. In addition, the Borrower paid the administrative agent for the ratable account of the Consenting Lenders a consent fee of $19,053,340.71.

In connection with the Restructuring Transactions, Metavante and the Borrower and the Borrower’s domestic subsidiaries that are guarantors under the Credit Agreement also entered into: (i) a subsidiary guaranty supplement, dated as of October 1, 2009 in favor of the guaranteed parties, as defined therein (the “Subsidiary Guaranty Supplement”), pursuant to which they guaranteed the obligations under FIS’ existing credit facility and (ii) a guaranty agreement dated as of October 1, 2009 in favor of the guaranteed parties, as defined therein (the “Receivables Guaranty”), pursuant to which they guaranteed the obligations under the FIS receivables purchase agreement dated as of October 1, 2009.

The foregoing description of the Credit Agreement Amendment and the Restructuring Transactions does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Credit Agreement Amendment, which is listed as Exhibit 4.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference, and by the Debt Exchange and Joinder Agreement, the Subsidiary Guaranty Supplement and the Receivables Guaranty, which are attached hereto as Exhibits 4.2, 99.1 and 99.2, respectively, all of which are incorporated herein by reference.

On October 1, 2009, FIS issued a press release announcing that FIS completed its acquisition of Metavante. A copy of the press release is filed hereto as Exhibit 99.3 and is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 1.02. Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement.

Termination of Shareholders Agreement

Upon consummation of the Merger, the shareholders agreement dated as of November 1, 2007, as amended, between Metavante, WPM, L.P. (“WPM”), a 25% shareholder of Metavante (prior to the consummation of the Merger) and an affiliate of Warburg Pincus LLC, and the other shareholders party thereto was terminated pursuant to the terms of a support agreement that was entered into in connection with the execution of the Merger Agreement. The shareholders agreement contained provisions with respect to, among other things, the governance of Metavante, restrictions on the ability of WPM to dispose of its shares of Metavante common stock (“Common Stock”) prior to November 1, 2009, “standstill” restrictions on the ability of WPM to purchase additional securities of Metavante in certain circumstances and registration rights for WPM.

Termination of Stock Purchase Right Agreement

Upon consummation of the Merger, the amended and restated stock purchase right agreement dated as of August 21, 2008 between Metavante and WPM was terminated pursuant to the terms of a separate stock purchase right agreement entered into among FIS, Metavante and WPM in connection with the execution of the Merger Agreement. The terminated stock purchase right agreement had provided WPM the right to purchase shares of Common Stock related to employee stock options that were outstanding immediately following the separation of Metavante from Marshall & Ilsley Corporation on November 1, 2007.

 

Item 2.01. Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, on October 1, 2009, Metavante was merged with and into Merger Sub, with Merger Sub continuing after the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of FIS. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, each outstanding share of Common Stock was converted in the Merger into the right to receive 1.35 shares of FIS common stock.

The foregoing description of the Merger Agreement and the Merger is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Merger Agreement, which is listed as Exhibit 2.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.

 

Item 2.03. Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

See the disclosure regarding the Credit Agreement Amendment and the Restructuring Transactions under Item 1.01 above for additional information, which is incorporated herein by reference.

 

Item 3.01. Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

In connection with the completion of the Merger, on October 1, 2009, Metavante notified the New York Stock Exchange (the “Exchange”) that each outstanding share of Common Stock was converted in the Merger into the right to receive 1.35 shares of FIS common stock, and requested that the Exchange file a notification of removal from listing on Form 25 with the SEC with respect to the Common Stock, which was filed on October 2, 2009. In connection with the completion of the Merger, trading of the Common Stock on the Exchange ceased before the opening of trading on October 2, 2009.

 

Item 3.03. Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders.

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, each outstanding share of Common Stock was converted in the Merger into the right to receive 1.35 shares of FIS common stock. See the disclosure regarding the Merger

Agreement and the Merger under Item 2.01 above for additional information, which is incorporated herein by reference.

 

Item 5.01. Changes in Control of Registrant.

As a result of the Merger, Metavante became wholly owned by FIS. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, each outstanding share of Common Stock was converted in the Merger into the right to receive 1.35 shares of FIS common stock. See the disclosure regarding the Merger Agreement and the Merger under Item 2.01 above and Item 5.02 below for additional information, which is incorporated herein by reference.

 

Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

In accordance with the Merger Agreement, upon consummation of the Merger on October 1, 2009, the directors and executive officers of Metavante were effectively removed and replaced by the directors and executive officers of Merger Sub. These resignations were not a result of any disagreements between Metavante and the former directors on any matter relating to Metavante’s operations, policies or practices.

Immediately prior to the consummation of the Merger, Metavante terminated the Metavante Executive Deferred Compensation Plan and the Metavante Directors Deferred Compensation Plan.

In connection with the Merger, on October 1, 2009, the employment of each of Timothy C. Oliver, Chief Financial Officer of Metavante, and Donald W. Layden, Jr., Senior Executive Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary of Metavante, was terminated. In connection with such terminations of employment, each of Messrs. Oliver and Layden executed a separation agreement and release in substantially the forms that were attached to their respective change of control agreements. Under the terms of the separation agreement and releases, in exchange for receiving the severance benefits provided under each executive’s change of control agreement and under Mr. Layden’s employment agreement, each executive agreed to release Metavante from any claims he may have against the company and its affiliates. For a description of the change of control agreements with Messrs. Oliver and Layden and the employment agreement with Mr. Layden, see the disclosure in Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-K/A to Metavante’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008, which amendment was filed with the SEC on April 30, 2009. Under the terms of the separation agreement and releases, each executive also agreed to provide transition services to FIS for a period of 30 days following the closing of the Merger, during which period the executive will receive his then existing base salary; the transition services and payment therefore are in lieu of a 30-day notice of termination that was required under each executive’s existing employment arrangement. Pursuant to the separation agreement and releases, the change of control agreements and, in Mr. Layden’s case, his employment agreement, Mr. Oliver will receive cash severance payments with an aggregate value of $2,515,013 and Mr. Layden will receive cash severance payments with an aggregate value of $3,313,377. In addition, Messrs. Oliver and Layden will be entitled to receive estimated excise tax gross-up payments of approximately $1,368,845 and $1,978,146, respectively.

The foregoing description of the separation agreement and releases does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to: (i) the Separation Agreement and Release dated October 1, 2009 between Metavante Technologies, Inc. and Timothy C. Oliver, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1, (ii) the Separation Agreement and Release dated October 1, 2009 between Metavante Technologies, Inc. and Donald W. Layden, Jr., which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.2, (iii) the Form of Change of Control Agreement for Timothy C. Oliver, which is listed as Exhibit 10.3 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, (iv) the Amended and Restated Change of Control Agreement, dated November 24, 2008, by and between Metavante Technologies, Inc. and Donald W. Layden, Jr., which is listed as Exhibit 10.4 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, and (v) the Employment Agreement, dated November 1, 2007, by and between Metavante Technologies, Inc. and Donald W. Layden, Jr., which is listed as Exhibit 10.5 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, all of which are incorporated herein by reference.

Separation Agreement and Release, dated as of October 1, 2009

Exhibit 10.1

SEPARATION AGREEMENT AND RELEASE

Date Provided to Employee: September 30, 2009

In order to receive severance benefits under my Change of Control Agreement with Metavante Technologies, Inc. (my “Change of Control Agreement”), I understand that I must sign and return this Release to the Chief Executive Officer of Metavante. I must do so within 21 calendar days from the date my employment is terminated.

I understand that my employment with Metavante has been terminated effective as of the closing (the “Closing”) of the pending merger between Metavante and a subsidiary of Fidelity National Information Services, Inc. (“Fidelity”). I understand that regardless of whether I sign this release, I am entitled to certain unconditional benefits described in my Change of Control Agreement. I also understand that I will receive the conditional benefits described in my Change of Control Agreement after signing this release.

 

  1. General Release of Claims.

Except as set forth in Section 3 and Section 15, I, for myself, my heirs, administrators, representatives, executors, successors and assigns (collectively, the “Releasers”) hereby irrevocably and unconditionally release, acquit and forever discharge Metavante from, and covenant not to sue Metavante with respect to, any and all claims I have against Metavante.

 

  2. Claims to Which Release Applies.

This release applies both to claims that are now known or are later discovered. However, this release does not apply to any claims that may arise after the date I execute the release. Nor does this release apply to any claims that may not be released under applicable law.

 

  3. Claims Released.

The claims released include, but are not limited to, (1) claims arising under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act as amended (29 U.S.C. Section 621 et seq.), (2) claims arising out of or relating in any way to my employment with Metavante or the conclusion of that employment (including any right under my Change of Control Agreement to any prior notice of termination of my employment required thereunder) and (3) claims arising under any other federal, state or local law, regulation, ordinance or order that regulates the employment relationship except for vested benefits to be provided under employee benefit plans and amounts due under the Change of Control Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, I understand that I shall have no rights to any additional severance or bonus payments other than what is described in Appendix A.


Timothy Oliver – Separation Agreement and Release

 

  4. Release Covers Claims Against Related Parties.

For purposes of this release the term Metavante includes Metavante Technologies, Inc. and any of its present, former and future owners, parents, affiliates and direct and indirect subsidiaries, divisions and related entities and its and their current and former directors, officers, shareholders, trustees, employees, consultants, independent contractors, agents, servants, representatives, predecessors, successors, including, without limitation, Fidelity National Information Services, Inc., and assigns. Therefore, the claims released include claims I have against any such persons or entities.

 

  5. The Terms “Claims” and “Release” are Construed Broadly.

As used in this release, the term “claims” shall be construed broadly and shall be read to include, for example, the terms “rights”, causes of action (whether arising in law or equity)”, “damages”, “demands”, “obligations”, “grievances” and “liabilities” of any kind or character. Similarly, the term “release” shall be construed broadly and shall be read to include, for example, the terms “discharge” and “waive”.

 

  6. Release Binding on Employee and Related Parties.

This release shall be binding upon me and my agents, attorneys, personal representatives, executors, administrators, heirs, beneficiaries, successors, and assigns.

 

  7. Additional Consideration.

I have executed this release in consideration for the additional benefits under my Change of Control Agreement that are described in Appendix A to this Release. I acknowledge that these benefits represent consideration in addition to anything of value that I am otherwise entitled to receive from Metavante. These severance benefits are sufficient to support this release.

 

  8. Additional Obligations.

I hereby agree to make myself reasonably available to Fidelity, Metavante and their affiliates from time to time during the thirty (30) day period immediately following the Closing (the “Transition Period”) to provide transition services as may be reasonably requested by the Chief Executive Officer of Fidelity (the “Transition Services”); provided, however, that in no event shall I be required to provide Transition Services for more than 30 hours during the Transition Period; and provided, further, that I will not be prohibited from working for other individuals or entities during the Transition Period to the extent such work does not interfere with the Transition Services or my obligations under my Change of Control Agreement.


Timothy Oliver – Separation Agreement and Release

I agree that this release does not waive, modify or amend any obligations that I may have with respect to Metavante following my termination of employment, including without limitation, any non-competition or other restrictive covenants that I am subject to.

 

  9. All Representations in Documents.

In entering into this release I acknowledge that I have not relied on any verbal or written representations by any Metavante representative. I agree that I am not entitled to any other severance benefits except those described in this release and in my Change of Control Agreement.

 

  10. Opportunity to Consider this Release; Consultation with Attorney.

I have read this release and fully understand its terms. I have been offered at least 45 days to consider its terms. I have been (and am again hereby) advised in writing to consult with an attorney before signing this release.

 

  11. Voluntary Agreement.

I have entered into this release knowingly and voluntarily and understand that its terms are binding on me. I understand that my rights hereunder, including without limitation the additional benefits that are described in Appendix A, may not be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned, or otherwise alienated or hypothecated, other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution.

 

  12. Partial Invalidity of Release.

If any part of this release is held to be unenforceable, invalid or void, then the balance of this release shall nonetheless remain in full force and effect to the extent permitted by law.

 

  13. Headings.

The headings and subheadings in this release are inserted for convenience and reference only and are not to be used in construing the release.

 

  14. Applicable Law.

Wisconsin law will apply in connection with any dispute or proceeding concerning this release.

 

  15. Relationship of Severance Benefits to My Rights Under Other Benefit Plans.

 


Timothy Oliver – Separation Agreement and Release

I understand that severance benefits payable to me shall not be taken into account for purposes of determining my benefits under any other qualified or nonqualified plans of Metavante. Nothing in this Release shall constitute (i) a waiver or release of any other or additional vested payment or benefit (if any) to which I am entitled under the then applicable terms of any applicable plan, program, agreement or other arrangement of Metavante (e.g., 401k plan rights; indemnification rights; D&O insurance rights; pension rights; equity rights; etc.), which payments or benefits shall be treated in accordance with the terms of any such applicable plan, program, agreement or other arrangement, (ii) a waiver or release or an amendment of any of my currently outstanding equity awards, a list of which is attached hereto as Appendix B, and with respect to each such award, the termination of my employment will be treated as an involuntarily termination by Metavante following a “Change of Control” (as defined therein), or (iii) except as provided in the last sentence of Section 3, a waiver or release of any claim or rights under the Agreements.

 

  16. Suit in Violation of this Release – Loss of Benefits and Payment of Costs.

If I bring an action against Metavante in violation of this release or if I bring an action asking that the release be declared invalid or unenforceable, I agree that prior to the commencement of such an action I will tender back to Metavante all payments that are described on Appendix A and that I have received, other than the Accrued Obligations (as defined on Appendix A). If my action is unsuccessful I further agree that I will pay all costs, expenses and reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred by Metavante in its successful defense against the action. I acknowledge and understand that all remaining benefits described on Appendix A to be provided to me as consideration for this release will permanently cease as of the date such action is instituted. However, the previous three sentences shall not be applicable if I bring an action challenging the validity of this release under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (which I may do without penalty under this release).

 

  17. Confidentiality.

I agree that I will not divulge proprietary or confidential information relating to Metavante. I also agree that the existence and terms of this release have been and will be kept confidential by me and not disclosed, revealed or characterized by me (directly or indirectly by innuendo or otherwise) except as required by law, to anyone other than my immediate family and my attorney and tax advisor, who shall also agree similarly not to make any further disclosure.

 

  18. 7-Day Revocation Period.


Timothy Oliver – Separation Agreement and Release

I understand that I have a period of 7 calendar days following the date I deliver a signed copy of this release to Metavante Technologies’ Chief Executive Officer to revoke this release. This release and my entitlement to severance pay will be binding and effective upon the expiration of this 7-day period if I do not revoke, but not before.

 

  19. Non-disparagement.

I agree not to make disparaging remarks about Metavante, or its products, services, or practices. Metavante Technologies agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to cause members of its Executive Committee and Board of Directors not to make disparaging remarks about me.

 

  20. Section 409A.

I acknowledge and agree that amounts that constitute a “nonqualified deferred compensation arrangement” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) that would otherwise be payable and benefits that would otherwise be provided under my Change of Control Agreement during the six-month period immediately following my “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code shall instead be paid or provided on the first business day after the date that is six months following my separation from service (the “Delayed Payment Date”). If I die following my separation from service and prior to the payment of the any amounts delayed on account of Section 409A of the Code, such amounts shall be paid to the personal representative of my estate within 30 days after the date of my death. All reimbursements and in-kind benefits provided under this Release that constitute deferred compensation within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code shall be made or provided in accordance with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, including, without limitation, that (i) in no event shall reimbursements by Metavante under this Release be made later than the end of the calendar year next following the calendar year in which the applicable fees and expenses were incurred, provided, that I shall have submitted an invoice for such fees and expenses at least 10 days before the end of the calendar year next following the calendar year in which such fees and expenses were incurred; (ii) the amount of in-kind benefits that Metavante is obligated to pay or provide in any given calendar year (other than medical reimbursements described in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(1)(iv)(B)) shall not affect the in-kind benefits that Metavante is obligated to pay or provide in any other calendar year; (iii) my right to have Metavante pay or provide such reimbursements and in-kind benefits may not be liquidated or exchanged for any other benefit; and (iv) in no event shall Metavante’s obligations to make such reimbursements or to provide such in-kind benefits apply later than my remaining lifetime (or if longer, through the 20th anniversary of my separation from service).

Separation Agreement and Release, dated as of October 1, 2009

Exhibit 10.2

SEPARATION AGREEMENT AND RELEASE

Date Provided to Employee: September 30, 2009

In order to receive severance benefits under my Change of Control Agreement and my Employment Agreement with Metavante Technologies, Inc. (my “Agreements”), I understand that I must sign and return this Release to the Chief Executive Officer of Metavante. I must do so within 21 calendar days from the date my employment is terminated.

I understand that my employment with Metavante has been terminated effective as of the closing (the “Closing”) of the pending merger between Metavante and a subsidiary of Fidelity National Information Services, Inc. (“Fidelity”). I understand that regardless of whether I sign this release, I am entitled to certain unconditional benefits described in my Agreements. I also understand that I will receive the conditional benefits described in my Agreements after signing this release.

 

  1. General Release of Claims.

Except as set forth in Section 3 and Section 15, I, for myself, my heirs, administrators, representatives, executors, successors and assigns (collectively, the “Releasers”) hereby irrevocably and unconditionally release, acquit and forever discharge Metavante from, and covenant not to sue Metavante with respect to, any and all claims I have against Metavante.

 

  2. Claims to Which Release Applies.

This release applies both to claims that are now known or are later discovered. However, this release does not apply to any claims that may arise after the date I execute the release. Nor does this release apply to any claims that may not be released under applicable law.

 

  3. Claims Released.

The claims released include, but are not limited to, (1) claims arising under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act as amended (29 U.S.C. Section 621 et seq.), (2) claims arising out of or relating in any way to my employment with Metavante or the conclusion of that employment (including any right under my Agreements to any prior notice of termination of my employment required thereunder) and (3) claims arising under any other federal, state or local law, regulation, ordinance or order that regulates the employment relationship, except for vested benefits to be provided under employee benefit plans and amounts due under the Agreements. For the avoidance of doubt, I understand that I shall have no rights to any additional severance or bonus payments other than what is described in Appendix A.


Don Layden – Separation Agreement and Release

 

  4. Release Covers Claims Against Related Parties.

For purposes of this release the term “Metavante” includes Metavante Technologies, Inc. and any of its present, former and future owners, parents, affiliates and direct and indirect subsidiaries, divisions and related entities and its and their current and former directors, officers, shareholders, trustees, employees, consultants, independent contractors, agents, servants, representatives, predecessors, successors, including, without limitation, Fidelity National Information Services, Inc., and assigns. Therefore, the claims released include claims I have against any such persons or entities.

 

  5. The Terms “Claims” and “Release” are Construed Broadly.

As used in this release, the term “claims” shall be construed broadly and shall be read to include, for example, the terms “rights”, causes of action (whether arising in law or equity)”, “damages”, “demands”, “obligations”, “grievances” and “liabilities” of any kind or character. Similarly, the term “release” shall be construed broadly and shall be read to include, for example, the terms “discharge” and “waive”.

 

  6. Release Binding on Employee and Related Parties.

This release shall be binding upon me and my agents, attorneys, personal representatives, executors, administrators, heirs, beneficiaries, successors, and assigns.

 

  7. Additional Consideration.

I have executed this release in consideration for the additional benefits under my Agreements that are described in Appendix A to this Release. I acknowledge that these benefits represent consideration in addition to anything of value that I am otherwise entitled to receive from Metavante. These severance benefits are sufficient to support this release.

 

  8. Additional Obligations.

I hereby agree to make myself reasonably available to Fidelity, Metavante and their affiliates from time to time during the thirty (30) day period immediately following the Closing (the “Transition Period”) to provide transition services as may be reasonably requested by the Chief Executive Officer of Fidelity (the “Transition Services”); provided, however, that in no event shall I be required to provide Transition Services for more than 30 hours during the Transition Period; and provided, further, that I will not be prohibited from working for other individuals or entities during the Transition Period to the extent such work does

 

2


Don Layden – Separation Agreement and Release

not interfere with the Transition Services or my obligations under the Agreements.

I agree that this release does not waive, modify or amend any obligations that I may have with respect to Metavante following my termination of employment, including without limitation, any non-competition or other restrictive covenants that I am subject to.

 

  9. All Representations in Documents.

In entering into this release I acknowledge that I have not relied on any verbal or written representations by any Metavante representative. I agree that I am not entitled to any other severance benefits except those described in this release and in my Agreements.

 

  10. Opportunity to Consider this Release; Consultation with Attorney.

I have read this release and fully understand its terms. I have been offered at least 45 days to consider its terms. I have been (and am again hereby) advised in writing to consult with an attorney before signing this release.

 

  11. Voluntary Agreement.

I have entered into this release knowingly and voluntarily and understand that its terms are binding on me. I understand that my rights hereunder, including without limitation the additional benefits that are described in Appendix A, may not be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned, or otherwise alienated or hypothecated, other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution.

 

  12. Partial Invalidity of Release.

If any part of this release is held to be unenforceable, invalid or void, then the balance of this release shall nonetheless remain in full force and effect to the extent permitted by law.

 

  13. Headings.

The headings and subheadings in this release are inserted for convenience and reference only and are not to be used in construing the release.

 

  14. Applicable Law.

Wisconsin law will apply in connection with any dispute or proceeding concerning this release.

 

  15. Relationship of Severance Benefits to My Rights Under Other Benefit Plans.

 

3


Don Layden – Separation Agreement and Release

I understand that severance benefits payable to me shall not be taken into account for purposes of determining my benefits under any other qualified or nonqualified plans of Metavante. Nothing in this Release shall constitute (i) a waiver or release of any other or additional vested payment or benefit (if any) to which I am entitled under the then applicable terms of any applicable plan, program, agreement or other arrangement of Metavante (e.g., 401k plan rights; indemnification rights; D&O insurance rights; pension rights; equity rights; etc.), which payments or benefits shall be treated in accordance with the terms of any such applicable plan, program, agreement or other arrangement, (ii) a waiver or release or an amendment of any of my currently outstanding equity awards, a list of which is attached hereto as Appendix B, and with respect to each such award, the termination of my employment will be treated as an involuntarily termination by Metavante following a “Change of Control” (as defined therein), or (iii) except as provided in the last sentence of Section 3, a waiver or release of any claims or rights under the Agreements.

 

  16. Suit in Violation of this Release – Loss of Benefits and Payment of Costs.

If I bring an action against Metavante in violation of this release or if I bring an action asking that the release be declared invalid or unenforceable, I agree that prior to the commencement of such an action I will tender back to Metavante all payments that are described on Appendix A and that I have received, other than the Accrued Obligations (as defined on Appendix A). If my action is unsuccessful I further agree that I will pay all costs, expenses and reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred by Metavante in its successful defense against the action. I acknowledge and understand that all remaining benefits described on Appendix A to be provided to me as consideration for this release will permanently cease as of the date such action is instituted. However, the previous three sentences shall not be applicable if I bring an action challenging the validity of this release under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (which I may do without penalty under this release).

 

  17. Confidentiality.

I agree that I will not divulge proprietary or confidential information relating to Metavante. I also agree that the existence and terms of this release have been and will be kept confidential by me and not disclosed, revealed or characterized by me (directly or indirectly by innuendo or otherwise) except as required by law, to anyone other than my immediate family and my attorney and tax advisor, who shall also agree similarly not to make any further disclosure.

 

  18. 7-Day Revocation Period.

 

4


Don Layden – Separation Agreement and Release

I understand that I have a period of 7 calendar days following the date I deliver a signed copy of this release to Metavante Technologies’ Chief Executive Officer to revoke this release. This release and my entitlement to severance pay will be binding and effective upon the expiration of this 7-day period if I do not revoke, but not before.

 

  19. Non-disparagement.

I agree not to make disparaging remarks about Metavante, or its products, services, or practices. Metavante Technologies agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to cause members of its Executive Committee and Board of Directors not to make disparaging remarks about me.

 

  20. Section 409A.

I acknowledge and agree that amounts that constitute a “nonqualified deferred compensation arrangement” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) that would otherwise be payable and benefits that would otherwise be provided under my Agreements during the six-month period immediately following my “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code shall instead be paid or provided on the first business day after the date that is six months following my separation from service (the “Delayed Payment Date”). If I die following my separation from service and prior to the payment of the any amounts delayed on account of Section 409A of the Code, such amounts shall be paid to the personal representative of my estate within 30 days after the date of my death. All reimbursements and in-kind benefits provided under this Release that constitute deferred compensation within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code shall be made or provided in accordance with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, including, without limitation, that (i) in no event shall reimbursements by Metavante under this Release be made later than the end of the calendar year next following the calendar year in which the applicable fees and expenses were incurred, provided, that I shall have submitted an invoice for such fees and expenses at least 10 days before the end of the calendar year next following the calendar year in which such fees and expenses were incurred; (ii) the amount of in-kind benefits that Metavante is obligated to pay or provide in any given calendar year (other than medical reimbursements described in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(1)(iv)(B)) shall not affect the in-kind benefits that Metavante is obligated to pay or provide in any other calendar year; (iii) my right to have Metavante pay or provide such reimbursements and in-kind benefits may not be liquidated or exchanged for any other benefit; and (iv) in no event shall Metavante’s obligations to make such reimbursements or to provide such in-kind benefits apply later than my remaining lifetime (or if longer, through the 20th anniversary of my separation from service).

Ladies and Gentlemen:

Reference is made to (i) the Credit Agreement and (ii) the Amended and Restated Subsidiary Guaranty dated as of September 12, 2007, made by the Subsidiary Guarantors party thereto in favor of the Guaranteed Parties described therein (such Amended and Restated Subsidiary Guaranty, as in effect on the date hereof and as it may hereafter be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, together with this Subsidiary Guaranty Supplement (this “Guaranty Supplement”), being the “Subsidiary Guaranty”). The capitalized terms defined in the Subsidiary Guaranty or in the Credit Agreement and not otherwise defined herein are used herein as therein defined.

Section 1. Guaranty; Limitation of Liability. (a) Each of the undersigned hereby, jointly and severally with the other Subsidiary Guarantors, absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees the punctual payment when due, whether at scheduled maturity or by acceleration, demand or otherwise, of all of its Guaranteed Obligations. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each of the undersigned’s liability shall extend to all amounts that constitute part of the Guaranteed Obligations and would be owed by any other Loan Party to any Guaranteed Party under or in respect of the Loan Documents but for the fact that they are unenforceable or not allowable due to the existence of a bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding involving such other Loan Party.

(b) Each of the undersigned, and by its acceptance of this Guaranty Supplement, the Administrative Agent, on behalf of itself and each other Guaranteed Party, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such Persons that this Guaranty Supplement, the Subsidiary Guaranty and the Guaranteed Obligations of each of the undersigned hereunder and thereunder not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of Bankruptcy Law (as hereinafter

defined), the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar foreign, federal or state law to the extent applicable to this Guaranty Supplement and the Guaranteed Obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Administrative Agent, the other Guaranteed Parties and each of the undersigned hereby irrevocably agree that the Guaranteed Obligations of each of the undersigned Guarantors under this Guaranty Supplement and the Subsidiary Guaranty at any time shall be limited to the maximum amount as will result in the Guaranteed Obligations of the undersigned under this Guaranty Supplement and the Subsidiary Guaranty not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance under Bankruptcy Law or any comparable provision of applicable law.

(c) Subject to Section 4 of the Subsidiary Guaranty, each of the undersigned hereby unconditionally and irrevocably agrees that in the event any payment shall be required to be made to any Guaranteed Party under this Guaranty Supplement, the Subsidiary Guaranty, Article 10 of the Credit Agreement or any other guaranty, it will contribute, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, such amounts to each other Subsidiary Guarantor so as to maximize the aggregate amount paid to the Guaranteed Parties under or in respect of the Loan Documents.

(d) Each of the undersigned hereby agrees that any Indebtedness owed by it to another Loan Party shall be subordinated to the Guaranteed Obligations of the undersigned and that any Indebtedness owed to it by another Loan Party shall be subordinated to the Guaranteed Obligations of such other Loan Party, it being understood that the undersigned or such other Loan Party, as the case may be, may make payments on such intercompany Indebtedness unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

Section 2. Guaranteed Obligations Under the Guaranty. Each of the undersigned hereby agrees, as of the date first above written, to be bound as a Subsidiary Guarantor by all of the terms and conditions of the Subsidiary Guaranty to the same extent as each of the other Subsidiary Guarantors thereunder. Each of the undersigned further agrees, as of the date first above written, that each reference in the Subsidiary Guaranty to an “Additional Subsidiary Guarantor” or a “Subsidiary Guarantor” shall also mean and be a reference to it, and each reference in any other Loan Document to a “Subsidiary Guarantor” or a “Loan Party” shall also mean and be a reference to each of the undersigned.

Section 3. Delivery by Telecopier. This Guaranty Supplement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties thereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Guaranty

Section 4. GOVERNING LAW; JURISDICTION; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL, ETC. (a) THIS GUARANTY SUPPLEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

(b) ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING WITH RESPECT TO THIS GUARANTY SUPPLEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT MAY BE BROUGHT IN THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SITTING IN NEW YORK CITY OR OF THE UNITED STATES FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF SUCH STATE, AND BY EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS GUARANTY SUPPLEMENT, EACH PARTY HERETO CONSENTS, FOR ITSELF AND IN RESPECT OF ITS PROPERTY, TO THE NON-EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THOSE COURTS. EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY OBJECTION TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OR BASED ON THE GROUNDS OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS, WHICH IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE BRINGING OF ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN SUCH JURISDICTION IN RESPECT OF ANY LOAN DOCUMENT OR OTHER DOCUMENT RELATED THERETO.

GUARANTY AGREEMENT

GUARANTY AGREEMENT dated as of October 1, 2009 (this “Guaranty”) made by Fidelity National Information Services, Inc. (“FNIS”), each of the subsidiaries of FNIS listed on the signature pages hereof under the caption “Subsidiary Guarantors” (the “Subsidiary Guarantors”) and the Additional Subsidiary Guarantors (as defined in Section 9) (FNIS, the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Additional Subsidiary Guarantors being, collectively, the “Guarantors” and, individually, a “Guarantor”) in favor of the Guaranteed Parties (as defined in Section 1).

PRELIMINARY STATEMENTS

Reference is made to the Receivables Purchase Agreement dated as of October 1, 2009 (as amended from time to time, the “Receivables Purchase Agreement”) among FIS Receivables SPV, LLC, as the seller (the “SPV”), FNIS, as the servicer (the “Servicer”), the parties serving as receivables administrators from time to time thereunder (collectively, the “Receivables Administrators”), the purchasers party thereto (the “Purchasers”) and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as collateral agent and administrative agent (the “Agent”). Terms defined in the Receivables Purchase Agreement and not otherwise defined herein are used in this Guaranty as defined in the Receivables Purchase Agreement.

Each Guarantor may receive, directly or indirectly, a portion of the proceeds of the Purchases under the Receivables Purchase Agreement and will derive substantial direct and indirect benefits from the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. It is a condition precedent to the making of Purchases by the Purchasers under the Receivables Purchase Agreement that each Guarantor shall have executed and delivered this Guaranty.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and in order to induce the Purchasers to make Purchases under the Receivables Purchase Agreement, each Guarantor, jointly and severally with each other Guarantor, hereby agrees as follows:

SECTION 1. Guaranty; Limitation of Liability. (a) Each Guarantor hereby, jointly and severally, absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees, as a primary obligor and not merely as a surety, the punctual payment and performance when due, whether at scheduled maturity or by acceleration, demand or otherwise, of all of its Guaranteed Obligations. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the liability of each Guarantor shall extend to all amounts that constitute part of the Guaranteed Obligations and would be owed by the SPV to the Agent, the Purchasers, each agent or employee


of the Agent performing the duties of the Agent pursuant to Section 8.1(c) of the Receivables Purchase Agreement and the Servicer (if the Servicer is not a Transaction Party or an Affiliate of a Transaction Party) (collectively, the “Guaranteed Parties”) under or in respect of the Transaction Documents but for the fact that they are unenforceable, rejected, rejectable or otherwise not allowable due to the existence of a bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding involving the SPV.

For purposes of this Guaranty, “Guaranteed Obligations” means all Obligations of the SPV, now or hereafter existing (including, without limitation, any extensions, modifications, substitutions, amendments or renewals of any or all of the foregoing obligations), in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, and whether for Yield, Guaranty Protection Repurchase Obligations, Termination Repurchase Obligations, fees, indemnities, contract causes of action, costs, expenses or otherwise.

(b) Each Guarantor, and by its acceptance of this Guaranty, the Agent, on behalf of itself and each other Guaranteed Party, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such Persons that this Guaranty and the Guaranteed Obligations of each Guarantor hereunder not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of Bankruptcy Law (as hereinafter defined), the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar foreign, federal or state law to the extent applicable to this Guaranty and the Guaranteed Obligations of each Guarantor hereunder. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Agent, the other Guaranteed Parties and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the Guaranteed Obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor under this Guaranty at any time shall be limited to the maximum amount as will result in the Guaranteed Obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor under this Guaranty not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance under Bankruptcy Law or any comparable provision of applicable law. For purposes hereof, “Bankruptcy Law” means any proceeding of the type referred to in Section 7.1(f) of the Receivables Purchase Agreement or Title 11, U.S. Code, or any similar foreign, federal or state law for the relief of debtors.

(c) Subject to Section 4 of this Guaranty, each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably agrees that in the event any payment shall be required to be made to any Guaranteed Party under this Guaranty or any other guaranty, such Guarantor will contribute, to the maximum extent permitted by law, such amounts to each other Guarantor so as to maximize the aggregate amount paid to the Guaranteed Parties under or in respect of the Transaction Documents.

 

2


(d) Each Guarantor hereby agrees that any Indebtedness owed by it to another Transaction Party shall be subordinated to the Guaranteed Obligations of such Guarantor and that any Indebtedness owed to it by another Transaction Party shall be subordinated to the Guaranteed Obligations of such other Transaction Party, it being understood that such Guarantor or such other Transaction Party, as the case may be, may make payments on such intercompany Indebtedness unless an Event of Termination has occurred and is continuing. Each Guarantor further agrees that its guaranty hereunder constitutes a guarantee of payment when due and not of collection.

SECTION 2. Guaranty Absolute. Each Guarantor guarantees that the Guaranteed Obligations will be paid in accordance with the terms of the Transaction Documents, regardless of any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or the rights of any Guaranteed Party with respect thereto. The Guaranteed Obligations of each Guarantor under or in respect of this Guaranty are independent of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other Obligations of any other Transaction Party under or in respect of the Transaction Documents, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against each Guarantor to enforce this Guaranty, irrespective of whether any action is brought against the SPV or any other Transaction Party or whether the SPV or any other Transaction Party is joined in any such action or actions. The liability of each Guarantor under this Guaranty shall be irrevocable, absolute and unconditional, and each Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives any defenses (other than payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations) it may now have or hereafter acquire in any way relating to, any or all of the following:

(a) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Transaction Document or any agreement or instrument relating thereto;

(b) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other Obligations of any other Transaction Party under or in respect of the Transaction Documents, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from any Transaction Document, including, without limitation, any increase in the Guaranteed Obligations resulting from the extension of additional credit to, or the making of additional Purchases from, the SPV or otherwise;

(c) any taking, exchange, release or non-perfection of any Collateral (as defined in Annex A hereto) or any other collateral, or any taking, release or amendment or waiver of, or consent to departure from, any other guaranty, for all or any of its Guaranteed Obligations;

 

3


(d) any manner of application of Collateral or any other collateral, or proceeds thereof, to all or any of its Guaranteed Obligations, or any manner of sale or other disposition of any Collateral or any other collateral for all or any of its Guaranteed Obligations or any other Obligations of any Transaction Party under the Transaction Documents or any other assets of any Transaction Party or any of its Subsidiaries;

(e) any change, restructuring or termination of the corporate structure or existence of any Transaction Party or any of its Subsidiaries;

(f) any failure of any Guaranteed Party to disclose to any Transaction Party any information relating to the business, condition (financial or otherwise), operations, performance, properties or prospects of any other Transaction Party now or hereafter known to such Guaranteed Party (each Guarantor waiving any duty on the part of the Guaranteed Parties to disclose such information);

(g) the failure of any other Person to execute or deliver this Guaranty, any Guaranty Supplement (as hereinafter defined) or any other guaranty or agreement or the release or reduction of liability of any Guarantor or other guarantor or surety with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations; or

(h) any other circumstance or any existence of or reliance on any representation by any Guaranteed Party that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any Transaction Party or any other guarantor or surety other than satisfaction in full of the Guaranteed Obligations.

This Guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by any Guaranteed Party or any other Person upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the SPV or any other Transaction Party or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made.

SECTION 3. Waivers and Acknowledgments. (a) Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives promptness, diligence, notice of acceptance, presentment, demand for performance, notice of non-performance, default, acceleration, protest or dishonor and any other notice with respect to any of the Guaranteed Obligations and this Guaranty (other than any demand, presentment or notice required by the Transaction Documents) and any requirement that any Guaranteed Party protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien or any property subject thereto or exhaust any right or take any action against any Transaction Party or any other Person or, if applicable, any Collateral.

 

4


(b) Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives any right to revoke this Guaranty and acknowledges that this Guaranty is continuing in nature and applies to all Guaranteed Obligations, whether existing now or in the future.

(c) Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives (i) any defense arising by reason of any claim or defense based upon an election of remedies by any Guaranteed Party that in any manner impairs, reduces, releases or otherwise adversely affects the subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution or indemnification rights of such Guarantor or other rights of such Guarantor to proceed against any other Transaction Party, any other guarantor or any other Person or, if applicable, any Collateral and (ii) any defense based on any right of set-off or counterclaim against or in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations of such Guarantor hereunder.

(d) Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives any duty on the part of any Guaranteed Party to disclose to such Guarantor any matter, fact or thing relating to the business, condition (financial or otherwise), operations, performance, properties or prospects of any other Transaction Party or any of its Subsidiaries now or hereafter known by such Guaranteed Party.

(e) Each Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive substantial direct and indirect benefits from the financing and sale arrangements contemplated by the Transaction Documents and that the waivers set forth in Section 2 and this Section 3 are knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits.

SECTION 4. Subrogation. Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably agrees not to exercise any rights that it may now have or hereafter acquire against any other Transaction Party that arise from the existence, payment, performance or enforcement of such Guarantor’s Guaranteed Obligations under or in respect of this Guaranty or any other Transaction Document, including, without limitation, any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution or indemnification and any right to participate in any claim or remedy of any Guaranteed Party against any other Transaction Party or, if applicable, any Collateral, whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises in equity or under contract, statute or common law, including, without limitation, the right to take or receive from any other Transaction Party, directly or indirectly, in cash or other property or by set-off or in any other manner, payment or security on account of such claim, remedy or right, unless and until all of the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty shall have been paid in full in cash, the SPV’s Repurchase Obligations shall have been performed, Capital shall have been reduced to zero and the Commitments shall have expired or been terminated. If

 

5

If (i) all of the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty shall have been paid in full in cash, (ii) the Termination Date shall have occurred and (iii) Capital shall have been reduced to zero, the Guaranteed Parties will, at any Guarantor’s request and expense, execute and deliver to such Guarantor appropriate documents, without recourse and without representation or warranty, necessary to evidence the transfer by subrogation to such Guarantor of an interest in the Guaranteed Obligations resulting from such payment made by such Guarantor pursuant to this Guaranty.

SECTION 5. Payments Free and Clear of Taxes, Etc. Any and all payments by any Guarantor under this Guaranty or any other Transaction Document shall be made in accordance with the terms of the Receivables Purchase Agreement, including the provisions of Section 2.14 of the Receivables Purchase Agreement (and such Guarantor shall make such payments of Taxes and Other Taxes to the extent described in Section 2.14), as though such payments were made by the SPV.

SECTION 6. Representations And Warranties of FNIS. FNIS represents and warrants to the Agent and the Purchasers as to each of the matters set forth on Annex B hereto as if such provisions were fully set forth herein. Unless otherwise defined in the Receivables Purchase Agreement, each of the defined terms used in Annex B shall have the meaning assigned to such term in Annex A hereto.

SECTION 7. Covenants. Until the latest of (i) the date on which all of the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty shall have been paid in full in cash, (ii) the Termination Date and (ii) the date upon which Capital shall have been reduced to zero:

 

6


(a) FNIS shall, and shall (except in the case of the covenants set forth in Section 1, Section 2 and Section 3 of Annex C attached hereto) cause each Restricted Subsidiary to, perform each of the covenants set forth on Annex C hereto as if such provisions were fully set forth herein;

(b) FNIS shall not, nor shall it permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, take the actions set forth in Annex D hereto as if such provisions were fully set forth herein; and

(c) each Subsidiary Guarantor covenants and agrees that it shall perform and observe, and cause each of its Restricted Subsidiaries to perform and observe, all of the terms, covenants and agreements set forth in the Transaction Documents on its or their part to be performed or observed or that FNIS has agreed to cause such Subsidiary Guarantor or such Restricted Subsidiaries to perform or observe.

Unless otherwise defined therein, each of the defined terms used in Annex C and D shall have the meaning assigned to such term in Annex A hereto.

SECTION 8. Amendments, Release of Subsidiary Guarantors, Etc. No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Guaranty and no consent to any departure by any Guarantor therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Agent and the Guarantors (with the consent of the requisite number of Purchasers specified in the Receivables Purchase Agreement) and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. A Subsidiary Guarantor shall automatically be released from this Guaranty and its obligations hereunder if FNIS determines that such Subsidiary Guarantor is no longer required under Section 12 of Annex C hereto to be a Subsidiary Guarantor and gives notice to that effect to the Agent. The Agent will, at FNIS’s expense, execute and deliver to such Subsidiary Guarantor such documents as FNIS shall reasonably request to evidence the release of such Subsidiary Guarantor from its Guarantee hereunder pursuant to this Section 8; provided that FNIS shall have delivered to the Agent a written request therefor and a certificate of FNIS to the effect that the determination is in compliance with the Transaction Documents. The Agent shall be authorized to rely on any such certificate without independent investigation.

SECTION 9. Guaranty Supplements. Upon the execution and delivery by any Person of a guaranty supplement in substantially the form of Annex E hereto (each, a “Guaranty Supplement”), (a) such Person shall be referred to as an “Additional Subsidiary Guarantor” and shall become and be a Subsidiary Guarantor and Guarantor hereunder, and each reference in this Guaranty to a

 

7

The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.

SECTION 12. Right of Set-off. Upon (a) the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Termination and (b) the making of the request or the granting of the consent specified by Section 7.1 of the Receivables Purchase Agreement to authorize the Agent to declare that the Termination Date has occurred pursuant to the provisions of said Section 7.1, the Agent and, after obtaining the prior written consent of the Agent and each Purchaser is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, but not any deposits held in a custodial, trust or other fiduciary capacity) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by

 

8


the Agent or such Purchaser to or for the credit or the account of any Guarantor against any and all of the Guaranteed Obligations of such Guarantor now or hereafter existing under any Transaction Document, irrespective of whether the Agent or such Purchaser shall have made any demand under this Guaranty or any other Transaction Document and although such Guaranteed Obligations may be unmatured. The Agent and each Purchaser agrees promptly to notify such Guarantor after any such set-off and application; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, to the extent that FNIS shall determine at any time that certain Restricted Subsidiaries that are not required to be Guarantors pursuant to clause (a) above are parties to the Guaranty, FNIS shall be entitled to give notice to that effect to the Agent whereupon such Restricted Subsidiaries shall no longer be deemed to be Guarantors and the Agent shall promptly release each such Restricted Subsidiary from the Guaranty.
