Re: Services Agreement between Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. and Apex Clearing Corporation (“Apex”)

Background

Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. (“Broadridge”) and Xxxxxx Worldwide, Inc. (“Xxxxxx”) entered into a Master Services Agreement dated as of November 2, 2009, as amended or modified from time to time (collectively, and a full and complete copy of which is attached hereto, the “Xxxxxx MSA”). Pursuant to the Xxxxxx MSA, Ridge Clearing & Outsourcing Solutions, Inc. (“Ridge”, now known as Apex) and Xxxxxx Financial Services, Inc. (“PFSI”) entered into that certain Schedule A (United States) Service Bureau and Operations Support Services Schedule to the Xxxxxx MSA, dated as of November 2, 2009, as amended or modified from time to time (collectively, and a full and complete copy of which is attached hereto, the “U.S. MSA Schedule”, and collectively together with the Xxxxxx MSA, the “MSA Documents”). In connection with a series of transactions, including those described on the Term Sheet attached as Attachment 1 hereto (the “Term Sheet”), the securities clearing contracts of PFSI which were the subject of the services being provided by Broadridge and its affiliates under the MSA Documents are being assigned by PFSI to Apex (the “Transactions”, with Apex also being referred to in the Term Sheet as “JVP1 Sub”). As a result of, and as a pre-condition to, the Transactions, (i) the MSA Documents will be terminated by mutual agreement of Broadridge, PFSI and Xxxxxx pursuant to a Termination and Mutual Release Agreement dated the date hereof (the “Termination Agreement”), and (ii) Apex desires to

Pursuant to 17 C.F.R. 200.83

have Broadridge and its affiliates provide to Apex the services previously provided by Broadridge and its affiliates to PFSI under the MSA Documents, subject to the terms of this letter. As a result of the termination of the MSA Documents as noted above, and Apex’s willingness to enter into the agreements set forth herein, PFSI will be relieved of its obligation to pay certain amounts, as more fully described in the Termination Agreement (collectively, the “Debt Forgiveness”). In the absence of Apex’s agreements set forth herein, the Debt Forgiveness would not occur. This letter sets forth the agreement of Apex to purchase, and Broadridge to provide, certain services, all in accordance with and as further described in this letter.

Interim Agreement

Broadridge (itself or through its affiliates) will provide services to Apex under this letter agreement in accordance with the terms of the MSA Documents for a term of ten (10) years commencing on June 5, 2012, based on, and as modified by, the charges, early termination penalties and other business terms as set forth in the Agreed Upon Business Terms set forth in Schedule A hereto (notwithstanding anything in the MSA Documents to the contrary), including the Term Sheet and the Term Sheet Supplement attached hereto as Attachment 2. Accordingly, in connection with the application of the MSA Documents to the services provided under this letter agreement, (i) all provisions in the MSA Documents relating to pricing, fees or expense reimbursement (including without limitation, pricing terms in Section V and Attachment B to the U.S. MSA Schedule) are hereby replaced, superseded, amended and restated in their entirety with the pricing provisions set forth in Schedule A hereto, including the Term Sheet and the Term Sheet Supplement attached hereto as Attachment 2; and (ii) the termination fee amounts set forth in Section IV.B(i) and Section IV.B(iii) of the U.S. MSA Schedule are hereby replaced, superseded, amended and restated in their entirety with the termination fee amount determined in accordance with Section 2(c) of Services Agreement provisions of Attachment 1 to Schedule A hereto. In the event of any conflict between this letter agreement (including all schedules and exhibits hereto) and the MSA Documents, this letter agreement shall control. This letter agreement constitutes a binding agreement between the parties in accordance with its terms, until such time as a Definitive Agreement (defined below) has been mutually executed and delivered by the parties hereto, if ever.

Definitive Agreement

Broadridge and Apex agree to use good faith efforts to, as expeditiously as practicable, negotiate the terms of, and enter into, a Services Agreement which will supersede and replace the terms of this letter agreement (the “Definitive Agreement”) within ninety (90) days of the date of this letter. The Definitive Agreement will be based upon the terms of the MSA Documents, with modifications including: (i) incorporation of terms applicable to the Interim Agreement set forth in subparts (i) and (ii) of the previous paragraph; (ii) the Agreed Upon Business Terms as set forth in Schedule A hereto, (iii) modifications necessary to address the changed corporate structure of Apex as the service recipient, and (iv) such other modifications as may be mutually agreed upon by Broadridge and Apex, provided the final terms of the Definitive Agreement (not taking into consideration the modifications agreed to in this letter, including Schedule A and the Attachments) will be no less favorable to Apex in the aggregate than the terms of the MSA Documents to PFSI. In the event that the parties are unable to finalize and execute the Definitive Agreement in the time frame set forth above, the parties shall continue to operate under the interim agreement evidenced hereby and shall continue to use good faith efforts to, as expeditiously as practicable, finalize and execute the Definitive Agreement.

ATTACHMENT 1

Term Sheet

May 21, 2012

This term sheet reflects the principal terms and conditions of a proposed series of transactions (the “Transaction”) in which a new holding company (“Newco”) will be formed to hold 100% of the equity interests in Ridge Clearing & Outsourcing Solutions, Inc. (“JVP1 Sub”). Newco will be owned by a subsidiary of PEAK6 Investments, L.P. (“PEAK6”) and Xxxxxx Financial Services, Inc. (“PFSI”) as set forth herein. It is currently contemplated that Newco will be formed as a limited liability company (with a checked box to be treated as a corporation for federal income tax purposes). It is understood that the consummation of each of the transactions contemplated hereby and the agreements related thereto is dependent upon all such transactions and agreements being consummated simultaneously or in immediate sequence.

The parties acknowledge that (i) the proposed Transaction has been structured in a manner to protect approximately 1 million customers holding retail brokerage accounts through PFSI correspondents and preserve value for PFSI and its parent entity and (ii) the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and FINRA are supportive of the Transaction and PEAK6 expects, and is entering into this term sheet based on the understanding that the SEC and FINRA will proactively supportive the Transaction, including through public comment and discussions with PWI’s bondholders.

Contributions in Kind to Newco

1. Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. (“Broadridge”) sells 100% of JVP1 Sub to Newco. The purchase price paid to Broadridge is equal to the amount of regulatory net capital transferred with JVP1 Sub, which is estimated to be approximately $[****] (the “Broadridge Purchase Price”).

2. PFSI assigns all US securities clearing contracts and all related customer and introducing broker proprietary accounts and assets to JVP1 Sub (or if for tax or other reasons it is determined by PEAK6 to have the contribution be to Newco and then contributed to JVP1 Sub, the contribution shall first be to Newco).

3. No Canadian or futures assets/liabilities/contracts or operations will be included.

4. In connection with the Transaction, PFSI will indemnify Newco, JVP1 Sub, PEAK6 and PEAK6’s affiliates for all liabilities, costs, expenses, obligations, claims, actions, settlements and proceedings in connection with, resulting from or related to (x) the Transactions and/or the assignments, (y)excluded liabilities (which will include all liabilities arising pre-closing) and (z) breaches of representations and warranties in the assignment agreement, provided that such indemnity for breaches of representations and warranties, except for agreed exclusions, shall not exceed $45 million but such cap shall not apply to any offset/recovery under the first sentence of Section 4(b) below.

a. PFSI will make customary representations and warranties, including without limitation as to its balance sheet and solvency before and after consummation of the Transaction, that the transactions do not conflict with, breach or violate other agreements or covenants of it, its parent or any of their affiliates.

b. All of PFSI’s indemnification obligations, at the indemnitee’s election, may be satisfied by reducing PFSI’s distributions from Newco, and/or its payments under the services agreements to which it is a party. In the event that PFSI, Nexa Technologies, Inc. (“Nexa”) or any other PFSI affiliates that are parties thereto or that provide services thereunder cannot perform under the Transition Services Agreement between Newco, JVP1 Sub, PFSI and Nexa (“PFSI/Nexa TSA”), Broadridge will perform the services under the PFSI/Nexa TSA for the balance of the transition period, which shall not exceed 24 months (Broadridge will also provide any and all reasonably necessary service and assistance to Newco and JVP1 Sub to transition to a new service provider and to prevent service interruptions or degradation of services at cost); provided that the PFSI/Nexa TSA provides Broadridge an ability to obtain the necessary property and personnel to provide the services contemplated thereunder, at cost as provided for below in paragraph 2a under “Services Agreement.”

x. Xxxxxx Worldwide Inc. (“PWI”) and PFSI will further covenant and agree that it is their intention to reorganize their remaining business around the Nexa business, which has a value and net income in

-5-

Pursuant to 17 C.F.R. 200.83

excess of all other PFSI/PWI businesses, and there are no agreements, understandings or identified purchasers for their other businesses, other than the futures business. PWI and PFSI will further represent that they have no present intention to sell their principal remaining business, other than the futures business, which PFSI expects to sell for a minimum of $10,000,000 over net asset value, and its discontinued operations.

5. In connection with the sale of JVP1 Sub, Broadridge will indemnify Newco, JVP1 Sub and PEAK6 and PEAK6’s affiliates for all liabilities in connection with the sale, for breaches of representations and warranties in the sale agreement and for all liabilities, expenses, obligations, settlements, proceedings costs or claims related to the operation of JVP1 Sub’s business and/or periods of time prior to the sale. Newco and JVP1 Sub will indemnify Broadridge for all liabilities, expenses, obligations, settlements, proceedings costs or claims related to the operation of Newco’s and JVP1 Sub’s business acquired from PFSI (and not, for the avoidance of doubt related to businesses acquired from Broadridge or the re-payment of escheat capital in JVP1 Sub) for periods of time following the sale. All of Broadridge’s indemnification obligations may be satisfied, at the indemnitee’s election, by reducing Broadridge’s payments under the services agreements to which it is a party and/or the amount of Broadridge’s potential termination payment under the MSA (described below).

6. PFSI will represent that (i) it has received a legal opinion from Delaware counsel to the effect that the Transactions do not constitute the sale of all or substantially all of Xxxxxx Worldwide Inc.’s assets or business and approval of the shareholders of Xxxxxx Worldwide Inc. is not required (and at PEAK6’s election, such opinion shall be provided to PEAK6 along with a standard reliance letter from the law firm rendering such opinion) and (ii) the consummation of the transactions does not violate either the Indenture, dated June 3, 2009, between Xxxxxx Worldwide, Inc. and U.S. Bank National Association or the Indenture, dated May 6, 2010, between Xxxxxx Worldwide, Inc. and U.S. Bank National Association.

7. PFSI agrees to provide PEAK6 with reasonable access to PFSI’s books and records relating to the assignment of the assets and the pre-closing operation of the business, and PEAK6 will cause Newco and JVP1 Sub to provide PFSI with reasonable access to the books and records related to the pre-closing business in its possession or control.

b. Remaining PEAK6 and PFSI contributions are common membership interests in Newco.

2. PEAK6 enters a support services agreement with Newco, pursuant to which PEAK6 will provide services (including legal, back office, finance, accounting, etc.) and will be paid the fully allocated costs of such services plus 2% of the gross revenues of Newco and JVP1 Sub, on a consolidated basis.

3. PEAK6 has the option, which it may exercise, in whole or in part, from time to time and at any time, to purchase PFSI’s interests in Newco at an amount equal to 120% of the then-current value of PFSI’s capital account (which shall equal $90 million as of the closing, and be debited or credited with PFSI’s pro-rata portion of consolidated profits and losses of Newco calculated on a GAAP basis).

4. PFSI will establish an escrow account with $2 million for the benefit of Newco, JVP1 Sub and PEAK6 to meet actual documented legal and litigation costs and expenses for which Newco, JVP1 Sub or PEAK6 are entitled to indemnification. Such account shall be maintained with an institution acceptable to PEAK6 and be for a minimum 5-year term.

Services Agreements

1. PFSI terminates the existing Master Services Agreement between PFSI and Broadridge (the “Existing MSA”), as it relates to and including all existing U.S. schedules thereto or, at PEAK6’s election, such agreement will be assigned to JVP1 Sub at closing. PFSI will be entitled to continue to utilize the Broadridge services in the U.S. until the conversion to JVP1 Sub is complete.

2. Broadridge enters into a new 10-year master services agreement (the “MSA”) with Newco and JVP1 Sub for Broadridge and its affiliates to provide services to Newco and JVP1 Sub. In the event that the Existing MSA is assigned to JVP1 Sub, upon the entry into the MSA, the Existing MSA will terminate without any penalty, fee or obligation except as set forth in Section 6 below.

a. Broadridge agrees that under the MSA it will perform, in consideration of the revenue sharing arrangement set forth below, (i) all services consistent with the services Broadridge currently provides and services Broadridge has committed to provide to PFSI, and (ii) as necessary, any or all services to be provided by PFSI and/or Nexa pursuant to the PFSI/Nexa TSA in the event PFSI and/or Nexa do not perform any or all such services pursuant to, and for the remainder of the term of, the PFSI/Nexa TSA. The services in (i) above shall include [****]. To the extent Broadridge performs any services pursuant to the PFSI/Nexa TSA, Broadridge shall be paid in accordance with the terms of the TSA (but in no event more for such services than PFSI’s cost therefor). The parties intend that the MSA (or other agreement entered into relating to such services) shall contain “catch-all” and “no-extras” provisions to this effect. Payments to Broadridge under the MSA will be as follows:

[****] of Net Revenue –[ ****]% of such Net Revenues [(****]

Next [****] of Net Revenue – [****]% of such Net Revenues

Next[ ****] of Net Revenue – [****]% of such Net Revenues

Net Revenues in excess of [****] – [****]% of such Net Revenues

“Net Revenue” shall mean annual (calendar year) revenues from correspondent clearing businesses run on the Broadridge platform only and shall exclude any revenues relating to non-correspondent clearing businesses such as revenue from floor brokerage operations, clearance, execution, order routing and other fees (but only to the extent such revenues are related to non-correspondent clearing businesses).

b. If Newco and/or JVP1 Sub identify any product or service needed (based on the current business operations of the operations to be acquired by JVP1 Sub and Newco) to operate their respective businesses within four months of closing that is not provided under the MSA or currently performed by PFSI or one of its affiliates for itself, Broadridge will agree to build or otherwise obtain such product or service [****] and provide such product or service to Newco and JVP1 Sub at [****], except to the extent prohibited by law, rule or regulation, or by a regulator. After expiration of such four month period, if Newco and/or JVP1 Sub identify any product or service needed to operate their respective businesses that is not provided under the MSA or currently performed by PFSI or one of its affiliates for itself, Broadridge shall supply such product or service to Newco and JVP1 Sub (i) [****] or (ii) at a price to be

-7-

Pursuant to 17 C.F.R. 200.83

negotiated between JVP1 Sub and Broadridge in good faith if provision of such product or service to JVP1 Sub will cost Broadridge more than the additional revenues reasonably expected to be received by Broadridge as a result of such product or service.

c. If the entire MSA is terminated by Newco for convenience, Broadridge shall receive a payment equal to $[****], reduced on a straight-line basis over the term of the MSA (reduced on a monthly basis by $[****] on each monthly anniversary of entry into the MSA) (the “Termination Fee”).

d. If Broadridge fails to meet its obligations to provide services under the MSA, its payments under the MSA may, at the election of the other party to the agreement, be reduced to offset losses and damages in connection with such failure, provided that such payments will, other than certain to be agreed exceptions, be capped for each year of the term at the greater of (i) for year one of the MSA, $[****] million, year two of the MSA, $[****] million, and thereafter $[****] million and (ii) the amount of compensation Broadridge has received under such agreement over the prior rolling [****]-month period (as measured from the date of such failure. If Broadridge is in material default and does not cure within 30 days, Newco and JVP1 Sub shall be entitled to terminate the MSA and all schedules thereto without payment of the termination fee set forth above.

e. Broadridge shall have audit rights with regard to Net Revenue calculations.

f. Broadridge and PEAK6 will mutually agree on a list of additional services to be included in the MSA that Broadridge will provide for no additional cost.

3. PFSI, Nexa and, if necessary, other Xxxxxx entities enter into a transition services agreement to provide securities and futures clearing services to JVP1 Sub and Newco.

a. PFSI, Nexa and such other entities must perform transition services to operate the clearing and other business, including at a minimum the services it currently performs. Such services must ensure that Newco and JVP1 Sub comply with applicable regulatory, legal or industry requirements.

b. If PFSI, Nexa and/or such other entities fail to meet their obligations to provide services, in addition to the other remedies available to Newco and JVP1 Sub, at Newco’s election, PFSI’s distributions from Newco can be reduced.

c. Broadridge will take such steps as it deems necessary or appropriate to put it in a position to provide such replacement services.

4. Nexa (and other Xxxxxx entities to be determined) enters into a services agreement with Newco, pursuant to which Nexa grants to Newco and JVP1 Sub a royalty free, fully paid, non-exclusive, world-wide, sublicensable, perpetual license to the intellectual property currently used in PFSI’s business as part of Newco’s clearing operations and agrees to provide related services to Newco and JVP1 Sub. Other than for Nexa back-end order routing and execution which will be as provided for under the PFSI/Nexa TSA, Nexa and Newco will negotiate new pricing terms for any licenses and services for any additional customer and correspondent of Newco following the closing who desires to use the Nexa platform and agrees to provide related services to Newco and JVP1 Sub. Nexa and PFSI agree to provide all source codes to Newco and JVP1 Sub with the exception of Nexa front end software which will be placed in escrow within 15 days.

5. PFSI and Broadridge and their respective affiliates, including Nexa, agree not to, directly or indirectly, through ownership, control, management or otherwise, compete with, facilitate competition with or provide intellectual property or know-how to an entity that directly or indirectly competes with Newco or JVP1 Sub in the correspondent clearing business; provided, however, that Broadridge may provide services to other parties similar to what it will provide Newco and JVP1 Sub under the MSA. The MSA will contain a mutually agreed to exclusivity provision from JVP1 Sub and Newco.

6. Concurrently with the closing of the Transaction, Broadridge and PFSI will enter into a Termination and Mutual Release Agreement, whereby they will terminate the existing Master Services Agreement between them and release each other from all U.S. claims of any nature, including all of Broadridges’s rights of payment pursuant to that certain Amended and Restated Seller Note dated effective as of July 1, 2011 (but excluding any claims related solely to the performance of future obligations pursuant to the new agreements entered into in connection with the Transaction).
