-59-
(ii) | the Service Provider has demonstrated to Xxxxxx’x reasonable satisfaction that the event giving rise to Xxxxxx’x right to step in will not reoccur, or, if a reoccurrence does occur, that a reasonable mitigation plan is in place, and that the Service Provider is able to resume performance of the Services in accordance with this Agreement; |

(e) | Xxxxxx shall be entitled to comment on the Step-Out Plan and the Service Provider shall make all reasonable efforts to incorporate into the Step-Out Plan any comments that Xxxxxx may make. Responsibility for the Step-Out Plan and delivery of the Services remains with the Service Provider and accordingly the Service Provider is not obligated to accept any of Xxxxxx’x suggestions.

(d) | For up to six (6) months after the date Xxxxxx actually stepped-in to perform the Services as contemplated in this Clause 48 (Step-In), Xxxxxx shall not be liable to pay the Charges in respect of those Run Services for which Xxxxxx exercises its right to step in for as long as Xxxxxx is exercising its right to step in. |

(f) | Each Party shall take Appropriate Actions to minimize Step-In Costs. |
(g) | Subject to any necessary restrictions that the Service Provider must make to protect the confidentiality of the Service Provider’s other customers (in circumstances where it is providing the Services from a facility that it uses for other customers) or the Service Provider IP, and provided that the Step-In Agent complies with the Service Provider’s reasonable security and health and safety policies, the Service Provider shall provide any Step–In Agent with such assistance, co–operation and information in relation to the Services, and such access to the Service Provider’s Systems as is necessary for the Step-In Agent to properly perform its role or as Xxxxxx or the Step-In Agent may request. |

60.2 | Subject to Clause 60.5, the Service Provider shall not be liable for any failure to perform (or any delay in performing) any of its obligations under this Agreement (including the Service Levels) if and to the extent that the Service Provider can reasonably demonstrate that the failure or delay results from: |
(a) | a failure or delay by Xxxxxx, Xxxxxx Companies, or Other Service Providers (other than those Other Service Providers whose contract with Xxxxxx or whose related activities are not being administered or managed by the Service Provider or any of its Affiliates, to the extent the failure or delay by the applicable Other Service Provider results from the Service Provider’s improper administration, improper management, or other breach of this Agreement by the Service Provider) in performing any Xxxxxx Responsibility; or |
(b) | the Service Provider acting in accordance with an express instruction by Xxxxxx, provided that: |
(i) | the instruction was issued by an employee or other representative of Xxxxxx with at least apparent authority; and |
(ii) | the instruction was not manifestly issued in error |
(each, an “Excusing Cause”).
-90-
60.3 | The provision by Service Provider or any other member of the Service Provider Group of other services to Xxxxxx other than the Services, where the provision of such other services adversely affects the Services, shall not amount to an Excusing Cause, provided that it is neither (a) a breach of the applicable agreement between Xxxxxx or any member of the Xxxxxx Group, on one hand, and the Service Provider or any member of the Service Provider Group, on the other hand, for which Xxxxxx or any member of the Xxxxxx Group is liable nor (b) an event for which Xxxxxx or the applicable member of the Xxxxxx Group is responsible in a manner which, under the terms of the applicable agreement, results in the Service Provider or the applicable member of the Service Provider Group being relieved of its obligation to perform its obligations under such agreement. |
60.4 | The Service Provider shall: |
(a) | notify Xxxxxx in writing, and in a form that complies with the requirements of Clause 60.4(b) (an “Excusing Cause Notice”), as soon as practicable after becoming aware of an Excusing Cause which has led, is leading or is likely to lead to a failure or delay in the Service Provider performing its obligations under this Agreement; |
(b) | provide Xxxxxx with full details of, in each case as soon as is practicable under the circumstances: |
(i) | the precise nature of the Excusing Cause and the actual or potential delay or failure; |
(ii) | the specific obligations that are impacted by the Excusing Cause and how the Excusing Cause prevents or delays the performance of those obligations; |
(iii) | if the Service Provider seeks relief from Service Levels, the specific Service Levels in respect of which the Service Provider seeks relief and the reasons why the Excusing Cause impacts the Service Provider’s ability to meet those Service Levels; |
(iv) | the specific actions the Service Provider requires Xxxxxx to take in order for the Service Provider to resume performance of the Services in accordance with this Agreement; and |
(v) | the specific actions the Service Provider will to take in order for the Service Provider to mitigate the effect of the Excusing Cause and resume performance of the Services in accordance with this Agreement; |
(c) | use all reasonable endeavors to continue to perform the affected obligations in accordance with this Agreement notwithstanding the occurrence of any Excusing Cause; and |
(d) | comply with its obligations under this Agreement that relate to the management and resolution of the effects of the Excusing Cause (including, without limitation, its obligations under Clauses 24 (Security) to Clause 27 (Virus and Harmful Code Protection)). |
-91-
60.5 | If the Service Provider |
(a) | fails to comply with Clause 60.4; or |
(b) | submits an Excusing Cause Notice that does not comply with any of the requirements of Clause 60.4(b), |
the Service Provider shall not be excused from liability under Clause 60.2 to the extent that compliance with Clause 60.4 would have mitigated, or would have enabled Xxxxxx to mitigate, the effects of the Excusing Cause.
60.6 | Where an Excusing Cause contributed to a failure by the Service Provider to meet a Milestone, the Milestone Date for that Milestone (and Xxxxxx’x obligation to make payment in respect of any Payment Milestone corresponding to that Milestone) shall be automatically extended (without the need for Agreement Change) by a period of time equal to the delay caused by the Excusing Cause (which the Parties acknowledge may not necessarily be exactly the same as the period for which the Excusing Cause itself persisted). |
60.7 | If an Agreement Change has been made in respect of an Excusing Cause in accordance with Schedule 9 (Change), which may include an adjustment to the Charges, the Service Provider is not entitled to any other relief in respect of that Excusing Cause except as set out in the relevant agreed Change Notice. |
60.8 | Where the Parties cannot agree an Agreement Change to give effect to the adjustment to the Charges, either Party shall be entitled to initiate the Fast-Track Dispute Resolution Procedure, subject to Clause 60.12 and Clause 60.13. |
60.9 | Where there is a dispute under Clause 60.11, the Independent Expert shall be called upon to determine, and shall provide a formal report (the “Expert Report”) specifying: |
(a) | whether there is an entitlement to a change to the Charges due to an Excusing Cause; and/or |
(b) | how the Charges should be adjusted based on the Excusing Cause. |
60.10 | The Independent Expert shall determine the matters set out in Clause 60.9 by confirming all the relevant circumstances, including having regard to the following factors: |
(a) | whether there has in fact been an Excusing Cause within the meaning of Clause 60; and |
(b) | if there has been an Excusing Cause, the consequence of all the Excusing Causes in the relevant month is that the Service Provider had to expend more than 160 hours of Service Provider Personnel time in additional effort to perform the Services. |
60.11 | If the Independent Expert determines these criteria are met, then the Service Provider shall be entitled to adjust the Charges. If an Excusing Cause results directly in any delay in the Service Provider achieving a Milestone, and that delay results directly in the Service Provider incurring additional costs which it is unable to mitigate despite having used |
-92-
reasonable efforts to do so, the Service Provider shall be entitled to recover those costs from Molina. Where the Service Provider has incurred costs beyond the Delivery Credit amounts provided for above, nothing in this Clause 60.11 shall be taken as preventing the Service Provider in recovering any such amounts by way of damages in accordance with Clause 60.14.
60.12 | A claim by a Party (“Claiming Party”) under this Agreement for damages shall not be defeated because of the fault of the Claiming Party suffering the damage, but the damages recoverable by the Claiming Party in respect of that claim shall be reduced to the extent that the Claiming Party is responsible for the situation giving rise to the claim. |
60.13 | The acts, delays, failures or omissions of Molina referred to in this Clause 60 shall be deemed to include the acts, delays, failures or omissions of members of the Molina Group. |
60.14 | Any sums recoverable as an Excusing Cause under the provisions of this Clause 60 (Excusing Causes) shall be counted towards the liability cap under Clause 58.4(c) (Xxxxxx’x Liability Cap) and shall be subject to the provisions of Clause 58 (Indemnification, Liability), save that the provisions of Clause 58.5(a) relating to loss of profits and loss of revenue shall not apply to the extent that the sums recoverable by the Service Provider are for additional Service Provider Personnel, which shall be charged for in accordance with Appendix 3A (Resource Rates) to Schedule 3 (Pricing and Invoicing). |
61. |
61.1 | Neither Party shall be liable to the other for any breach or delay in performance of its obligations under this Agreement (including the Service Provider’s obligation to perform the Services in accordance with the Service Levels) if and to the extent that the breach or delay is caused by a Force Majeure Event. |
61.2 | The failure of any Subcontractor to perform any obligation owed to Molina shall constitute a Force Majeure Event with respect to the Service Provider’s performance of the Services only if and to the extent that the failure by the Subcontractor is itself caused by a Force Majeure Event. |
61.3 | When a Force Majeure Event has occurred, the non-performing Party shall be excused from further performance of the obligations affected for as long as the circumstances prevail and the non-performing Party continues to use its reasonable endeavors to recommence performance whenever and to whatever extent reasonably possible. Any Party so delayed in its performance shall promptly notify the other Party, and describe at a reasonable level of detail the circumstances causing such delay. |
61.4 | If a Force Majeure Event causes the Service Provider to allocate limited resources between or among the Service Provider’s customers, the Service Provider shall not unreasonably place Molina in lower priority to any other similarly affected customers of the Service Provider. Except as may be required by Applicable Law, in no event shall the Service Provider redeploy or reassign any Key Personnel to another account solely as a result of the occurrence of a Force Majeure Event. |
-93-
61.5 | If the Service Provider is excused from the performance of the Services pursuant to this Clause 61 (Force Majeure) and, as a result, the performance of the Services is substantially prevented, hindered, degraded or delayed for more than thirty (30) consecutive days then, without limiting any other rights it may have, at any time prior to the Service Provider’s recommencement of such Services, Molina may terminate this Agreement pursuant to Clause 54.1. |
61.6 | Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, where the provision of the Services or part thereof is prevented or affected by a Force Majeure Event, then Xxxxxx’x obligation to pay the Charges shall, to the extent to which those Charges relate to that part of the Services which is so prevented or materially affected, be reduced by such an amount as represents the smallest divisible and separately identifiable portion of the Charges as set out in Schedule 3 (Pricing and Invoicing) that relates to and fully covers the suspended Services, until the Service Provider resumes full performance of that part of the Services in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. |
-94-

63.2 | Where an Approved Subcontractor is an Affiliate of the Service Provider and after entering into a Subcontract ceases to be an Affiliate of the Service Provider, the relevant Approved Subcontractor’s status as an Approved Subcontractor shall be automatically revoked unless the Service Provider seeks and obtains Xxxxxx’x further approval to the continuation of such Subcontract in accordance with Clause 63.3. |
63.3 | The Service Provider shall require the prior written approval of Molina (which will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) to subcontract any of its obligations under this Agreement other than to Approved Subcontractors. |

(a) | provide Molina with an explanation as to why the Services are required to be subcontracted and provide Molina with the reasons why a particular Subcontractor is proposed; |

(c) | inform Molina in writing of the termination of any Subcontract. |
-95-
63.5 | In relation to each Subcontract to which the Service Provider is a party it shall ensure that: |

(b) | the Service Provider is entitled to transfer its rights and obligations under the Subcontract to Molina or a Successor Supplier on expiry or termination (in whole or in part) of this Agreement, that no conditions are attached to such entitlement and that, following any such assignment, Molina or the Successor Supplier is entitled to make full use of the subject matter of the Subcontract for the benefit of Molina; and |

63.7 | Notwithstanding the grant of any Subcontract, the Service Provider is responsible to Molina for the performance and observance of all its obligations under this Agreement and, subject to the limitation of liabilities in Clause 58 (Indemnification, Liability), for the consequences of any negligent acts or omissions of the Subcontractor arising in connection with this Agreement. |
63.8 | All of the obligations, prohibitions and requirements in this Agreement that are applicable to the Service Provider shall in so far as applicable to the sub-contracted Services be equally applicable to Subcontractors. The express reference to a Subcontractor in any provision of this Agreement is for emphasis only and shall not mean that the absence of an express reference to a Subcontractor in another provision means that that provision does not apply to a Subcontractor. |
64. |
64.1 | If Molina or any Molina Company transfers a Molina Company or any part of its business or operations that receive the Services to another entity that is not part of the Molina Group, then Molina may remove the transferred business or operations of Molina or the Molina Company from the scope of this Agreement. |

65.3 | The Service Provider shall, at Xxxxxx’x request, enter into an Agreed Form NDA with each Third Party Manager. |
65.4 | Molina shall, at the Service Provider’s request, ensure that each Third Party Manager enters into an Agreed Form NDA with the Service Provider. |

69.1 | This Agreement, and any other documents incorporated into this Agreement, constitutes the entire understanding between the Parties with respect to its subject matter, and supersedes all prior proposals, marketing materials, negotiations, representations (whether negligently or innocently made), agreements and other written or oral communications between the Parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement. |
70. |
70.1 | A failure to exercise or delay in exercising a right or remedy provided by this Agreement or by law does not constitute a waiver of the right or remedy or a waiver of other rights or remedies. |
70.2 | No single or partial exercise of a right or remedy provided by this Agreement or by law prevents a further exercise of the right or remedy or the exercise of another right or remedy. |
70.3 | No waiver of any breach of this Agreement, and no course of dealing between the Parties, will be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach of this Agreement. |
70.4 | Except where otherwise explicitly agreed, all remedies in this Agreement are cumulative and not exclusive of any other remedy or right in this Agreement or at Law or in equity. |
70.5 | Where there is a failure or delay by the Service Provider to meet any Milestone or any other obligation where a time period is stipulated and Molina does not exercise its rights in a timely manner then any delay in enforcing its rights shall not constitute a waiver of rights by Molina. If the Service Provider has not met a Milestone or time related obligation and Molina has not exercised its rights in a timely manner, then Molina does not need to issue any notice other than any notice stipulated in this Agreement prior to enforcing its available remedies. |
70.6 | Without prejudice to the generality of Clauses 70.1 to 70.5, the Service Provider accepts and agrees that: |
(a) | because the continued and uninterrupted provision of the Services is of importance to Xxxxxx, Xxxxxx may elect not to exercise its rights or remedies provided by this Agreement or by law immediately upon those rights or remedies becoming exercisable, and may continue to pay the Charges and/or attempt to negotiate an agreement, arrangement, settlement or compromise with the Service Provider in circumstances where those rights or remedies are exercisable; |
(b) | the Service Provider shall not be entitled to claim that, by reason of such delay in exercising its rights or remedies, continued payment or attempted negotiation, Molina is prevented from exercising any of its rights or remedies provided by this Agreement or by law (whether based on waiver, estoppel, laches or any other legal principle or theory) provided that the foregoing shall not be construed as a waiver; and |
-100-
(c) | in circumstances where the Service Provider fails to perform any obligation under this Agreement, the acceptance by Molina of different, partial or late performance of that obligation, or the agreement by Molina to any plan for the remedy of that failure, shall not prejudice any of Xxxxxx’x rights or remedies provided by this Agreement or by law in respect of that failure (whether based on waiver, estoppel, laches or any other legal principle or theory) or an express or implied election by Molina to affirm this Agreement. |
71. |
No provision of this Agreement creates a partnership between the Parties or makes a Party the agent of another Party for any purpose. Neither the Service Provider nor Molina has any authority to bind, to contract in the name of or to create a liability for such other Party in any way or for any purpose. No Service Provider personnel shall obtain the status of or otherwise be considered a Molina employee by virtue of their activities under this Agreement.

72. |

74.2 | There are separate and specific dispute resolution provisions in Schedule 9 (Change) that deal with failures to agree certain aspects of Agreement Change. |
74.3 | Any provision of this Agreement which requires one Party to provide information to the other Party shall apply to any given information, notwithstanding that that information may |
-101-
be pertinent to an actual or potential Dispute or prejudicial to either Party’s position in any actual or potential Dispute or otherwise. Neither Party shall be entitled to withhold or delay the provision of such information on the grounds that it is pertinent to an actual or potential Dispute or prejudicial to either Party’s position in any actual or potential Dispute or otherwise. This Clause 74.3 shall not be construed as a Party’s waiving its protections under attorney-client privilege or the attorney work product doctrine under Applicable Law.
74.4 | If either Party brings any claim against the other in which fraud is not pleaded, and the pleading Party subsequently discovers evidence that suggests fraud on the part of the other Party (or in the case of the Service Provider, its Subcontractors), the pleading Party shall be entitled to amend its pleadings accordingly and the other Party may not argue that the pleading Party is not so entitled. |
75. |

3.1 | Introduction |
The determination of whether Charge Adjustments may be made, the amount of any Charge Adjustments, and the calculation of Charges for Project Services shall be made in accordance with the principles set out in this Section 3. The Service Provider shall ensure that the Charges (and its preparation of the Charges) at all times comply with the Agreed Costs Standards.
3.2 | Interaction with Benchmarking |
The Agreed Cost Standards do not in any way limit or affect the outcomes of the Benchmarking Process. The Agreed Cost Standards shall not require the Service Provider to adjust the Charges where it does not agree to do so under the Benchmarking Process. Any adjustments to the Charges following the Benchmarking Process shall be made in accordance with the Agreed Cost Standards.
3.3 | Enforcement and Verification |
The Service Provider shall provide a confidential letter addressed to the members of the Head of IS Vendor and Service Provider Management, no later than 14 Business Days after the end of each Contract Year, to state that each Charge Adjustment assessed and invoiced in that Contract Year was assessed and invoiced in accordance with the Agreed Cost Standards.
3.4 | The Agreed Costs Standards |
-3-
Principle of Fairness – All Charge Adjustments and Charges for Project Services shall be fair and reasonable both to Molina and the Service Provider.
Principle of Proportionality – Subject to the principles that follow, all Charge Adjustments, Benchmarking Adjustments and Charges for Project Services shall be in proportion to the increase or decrease in the costs and/or risk that the Service Provider requires to deliver the Services.
Principle of Auditable Pricing – The Service Provider may not impose any Charge for Project Services or make any Charge Adjustment unless that adjustment is supported by reasonable supporting documentary evidence. Not all the supporting evidence need be disclosed to Molina but it must be sufficient to allow Molina to make a meaningful assessment of the reasons for any Charge Adjustment or Charge for Project Services. However, all supporting evidence, whether disclosed to Molina or not, must be maintained in such a form as to allow an auditor or other expert appointed pursuant to Clause 38 (Audit and Information Access) of this Agreement to conduct an audit referred to in that Clause.

5. |
6. |
6.1 | For ongoing services set forth in Appendices 3-A-6 (Infrastructure), 3-A-7 (Security Services), and 3-A-7 (End User Services), the total allowable Charges for each Resource Unit shall be calculated as A x B, where: |
6.2 | A = the Resource Unit Rate for such Resource Unit. |
6.3 | Certain Resource Unit Rates incorporate annual productivity improvements as set forth in Appendices 3-A-6 (Infrastructure), and 3-A-7 (End User Services). |
-5-
6.4 | B = the total actual volume of such Resource Unit in the applicable month, subject to the following: |
(a) | Service Provider shall not invoice for more than one Resource Unit if a device or Service fits within the definition of more than one Resource Unit. |

(c) | Where the volume of Resource Units is not cumulative (as determined by Molina) (e.g., FTE hours is a cumulative Resource Unit and desktops supported is a non-cumulative Resource Unit), the volume of Resource Units shall be calculated as the average daily volume of the number of Resource Units for the Period. For cumulative Resource Unit, the volume of Resource Units shall be calculated as on the end of the month. |
(d) | For a period of three months from the First Go Live Date of the Agreement and until such time the actual Resource Unit count is determined, invoicing shall be based on the Baseline Units, as set out in the Summary of Projected Charges tab of appendix 4 B (Pricing Matrix) as “Projected Monthly Service Volumes”. Thereafter, once the actual count is completed, a retrospective adjustment shall be carried out to the charges in the subsequent invoice. In such case, Service Provider shall not retrospectively adjust charges for services related Resource Units for which the actual count is within [redacted] of the Baseline Unit count. Molina and Service Provider will complete joint inventory tracking during transition period. |
(e) | For the fourth and subsequent months, the parties shall agree the actual volume of any Resource Unit, for the purposes of invoicing within the first 10 days after the month for which the invoice had to be raised.

(f) | The term “Resource Unit Data Source” means a database or repository designated by Molina as the repository of all Resource Unit Records that shall track chargeable Resource Units. No Resource Unit Record may be added to the Resource Unit Data Source without Molina's prior agreement. No Resource Unit Record will be deemed a chargeable Resource Unit for a month unless (i) it is listed in the Resource Unit Data Source and (ii) Service Provider provided Services (other than removal) with respect to such Resource Unit Record during a month. |
(g) | For avoidance of doubt, the Resource Unit Data Source is for invoicing purposes only and omission of an item from the Resource Unit Data Source shall not affect or reduce Service Provider's responsibility under Schedule 2 (Services) and/or the Exhibits thereto to provide Services with respect to that item. |
-6-
(h) | In the event that an item designated as a Resource Unit is replaced by a new item, the Parties will refer the matter to the applicable Operational Review Board (i) to designate an existing Resource Unit that will be associated with such replacement item, (ii) to determine that the replacement item is not relevant for pricing purposes (and thus will not be counted when determining the number of Resource Units), or (iii) to determine that providing Services with respect to the new item requires a new Resource Unit, in which case Service Provider will submit a new Charges proposal to perform Services with regard to such item pursuant to Schedule 2 (Services) or an amendment, as determined by Molina. |
(i) | In the event of a change in the amount of a Resource Unit, any change of [redacted] (or such other percentage as the parties specify in the Agreement) of the total amount of such Resource Unit will result in the completion of a formal Change Request. |
6.5 | The total allowable On-Going Services Charges for Services in connection with a Service Tower shall be the sum of all On-Going Services Charges for Resource Units associated with such Service Tower. |
6.6 | Service Provider shall measure and report to Molina monthly on the number and type of Resource Units actually utilized by Molina. |
6.7 | To the extent the Service Provider is responsible for Hardware and Software refresh as set out in the applicable SoW, such refresh shall be at no additional Charge in accordance with the Services, except, in each case subject to agreement by Molina and Service Provider, to the extent Molina requires an accelerated refresh of Molina Hardware and Software in addition to (a) refresh as set out in the SoW or (b) refresh as may be required for Service Provider to fulfil its obligations set out in the Agreement. |
6.8 | Service Provider may only begin charging Molina for On-Going Service Charges for a Service when all corresponding Transition Milestones for that Service are met. |
7. |
7.1 | For a project priced on a time and materials basis outside the scope of Services, the formula for calculating such “Supplemental Project Charges” for each Project Rate for each month shall be calculated as (D x E), where: |
(a) | D = the Supplemental Project Rate set forth in Appendix 3-A-13 (Supplemental Rate Card), as applicable in such month, or such lower rate as may be specified in the applicable project statement of work. |
(b) | E = Number of Project Productive Hours provided by Service Provider Personnel in the role associated with such Supplemental Project Rate during such month. |
7.2 | The total allowable Supplemental Project Charges in connection with a project statement of work priced on a time and materials basis shall be the sum of all Supplemental Project Charges for each Supplemental Project Rate associated with such project statement of work without any supplemental amounts, up-charges, or any other fee. |

(i) | Any other costs associated with modifying the Services as they are performed on the SOW Effective Date |
8.3 | If Service Provider fails to achieve acceptance of a Milestone for Transition by its Milestone Date, Service Provider shall be liable for delay payments in accordance with Schedule 4 (Transition and Transformation). The applicable Transition Fee less that total amount of the Delay Payment shall be considered to be the “Adjusted Transition Fee” for that Transition. The total amount of the Adjusted Transition Fee for a Transition may be invoiced by the Service Provider upon Acceptance of the final Transition Milestone for that Transition in accordance with Schedule 4 (Transition and Transformation). |
8.4 | In the event that Go Live for any Transition does not occur on the relevant Milestone Date any costs incurred by Service Provider shall be borne by the Service Provider and the Transition Charges shall not vary. |
