If fee credits are awarded for a calendar quarter within a year that is later determined not to count towards the Referral Period, Textura shall debit an amount from the Credit Bank Account equal to the dollar value of the original award that was an overpayment, except that if the Credit Bank Account balance is insufficient to debit such fee credits, Textura may offset future awards or deposits by Aon in the Credit Bank by any such shortfall.

Aon may also make direct investments in the Credit Bank pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and such investments shall constitute credits to the Aon’s Credit Bank account balance in the amount of such investment.
(b) Credit Bank Account. Textura shall establish and maintain a bookkeeping account of amounts invested by Aon in Textura and Referral Fee amounts awarded by Textura to Aon, referred to as the “Credit Bank Account.” As reasonably requested by Aon, but no more than once each calendar quarter, Textura shall provide Aon with a statement identifying the beginning balance, inflows, outflows and the ending balance of the Credit Bank Account and any fee credits during the period since the last statement and any supporting documentation as may be reasonably requested by Aon. Balances in the Credit Bank Account will accrue interest at an eight percent (8%) per annum rate calculated in arrears (the “Credit Bank Account Interest”). The amount due Aon as reflected in the Credit Bank Account shall be considered a senior debt instrument of Textura and be pari passu with the Convertible Debentures issued under the
Textura 2010 Financing. Except as may be provided in Section 3(e)(ii) to the contrary, Aon is under no obligation to keep a minimum credit balance in the Credit Bank Account.
(c) Reductions for Development Work. To the extent mutually agreed to by Aon and Textura from time to time in the Software Agreement or a separate written agreement, the amount credited in the Credit Bank Account shall be decreased in consideration for development work and other rights, licenses and services that may be provided by Textura to Aon or an Affiliate of Aon by an amount equal to the product of (i) the Mid-Level Developer Hour value agreed upon by the Parties for the specific services for which payment to Textura is being affected, and (ii) the agreed upon number of hours required to perform a development task. A “Mid-Level Developer Hour” equals the per-hour rate at which the Parties agree Textura is adequately compensated for its expenses of or amounts it pays to a mid-level developer. The value of a Mid-Level Developer Hour shall be (i) $75 for the initial work order under the Software Development Agreement and (ii) mutually agreed by the Parties for any subsequent work order. The value of a Mid-Level Developer Hour set forth in the any work order shall be reviewed and may be revised annually as mutually agreed to by Aon and Textura on a work order by work order basis, and as provided in the Software Agreement. At any time, the value of a Mid-Level Developer Hour as determined by the applicable work order shall be used to convert development tasks and hours into dollar amounts under the applicable work order with respect to payment for Textura’s services thereunder. The Parties agree that the total amount chargeable by Textura to the Credit Bank Account for Mid-Level Developer Hours for phase 1 and phase 2 of development under the Software Agreement initial work order shall be $470,000, as further subject to the terms of the applicable Work Order.

amounts in the Credit Bank Account in excess of the Threshold and less than the Cap be converted to Textura common stock or paid in cash, at Textura’s discretion, in accordance with the demand, notice of form and confirmation procedures set forth in Section 3(d)(vi), and that amounts in the Credit Bank Account in excess of the Cap be promptly paid to Aon by Textura in cash, or, if the Parties mutually agree in Textura common stock.

D. None of the provisions of this Section 3(d)(i), including without limitation the Cash Flow Trigger, Three Year Anniversary Trigger, Cap or Threshold restrictions, shall apply to any demands for payment made by Aon except for those described in Section 3(d)(i)(B).

Textura may determine the form of such payment, and shall provide notice to Aon consistent with such cash, cash equivalents or Textura common stock, the value of such common stock to be determined in accordance with Section 3(d)(vi); provided, however that if Textura determines to make such payment in Textura common stock it shall issue a prior notice of payment form to Aon and Aon may upon notification reject such form of payment. If Aon so rejects the payment of its Credit Bank Account balance in the fowl of Textura common stock, Textura shall instead issue to Aon a promissory note for such cash amount having no more than an twelve (12) month maturity date and other terms as mutually agreeable to the Parties. Provided the termination of this Agreement is not the result of a Termination Event of or by Aon, Textura’s obligation to pay a Referral Fee for any Referrals existing at the time of this Agreement’s termination shall survive until the end of such Referrals’ Referral Periods expire and all such Referral Fees shall be paid to Aon in cash on a quarterly basis after such termination.

(vi) Payment.
A. The choice of whether Textura pays cash or cash equivalents or issues common stock (or any combination of the three) to Aon pursuant to this Section 3(d) shall be at Textura’s sole discretion when such payment is pursuant to Section 3(d)(i)(B), otherwise it shall be as set forth in the applicable provisions of this Agreement.
B. In addition, at anytime that pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, Textura may pay Aon in common stock, Textura shall be required to follow the following terms:
a. If payment to Aon is pursuant to Section 3(d)(i)(B), Textura shall provide notice to Aon of the form it will be making payment of any amounts in the Credit Bank Account within fifteen (15) calendar days after receipt of Aon’s demand of the form of payment. Aon shall then have fifteen (15) calendar days after receipt of Textura’s form of payment notice to confirm to Textura whether it wishes to continue with such payment or to withdraw its demand and continue without payment. Within fifteen (15) calendar days of receipt of a confirmation from Aon of Aon’s continued demand for payment, Textura shall make such payment to Aon. If Textura does not receive confirmation of Aon’s continued demand or a withdrawal of such demand within such fifteen (15) day period, Textura shall proceed in making payment to Aon in the form designated by Textura in its notice to Aon.
b. If payment to Aon is to be affected by the conversion of the Credit Bank Account into shares of Textura common stock according with the terms of this Agreement, the number of shares that shall be issued to Aon as payment shall be determined by: (1) upon the occurrence of a Cash Flow Trigger, the number of shares that would be received by Aon upon Textura’s determination to pay a Credit Bank Account demand of Aon’s in common stock and
Aon’s acceptance of such form of payment would be the number of Textura common stock shares determined by assuming such Credit Bank Account credits being converted were originally invested in the Textura 2010 Financing in an equivalent principal amount of convertible debentures issued in such financing and such debenture principal amount received under the Textura 2010 Financing and such principal amount of debentures was then being converted into equity at $26.50, and if Aon does not elect to receive conversion of the credits into common stock, Aon shall defer conversion or payment of the credits until the Three Year Anniversary Trigger, and (2) upon the occurrence of the Three Year Anniversary Trigger, the number of shares that would be received by Aon upon a determination for a Credit Bank balance to be paid in Textura common stock would be determined based on Fair Market Value, and (3) after the occurrence of a Three Year Anniversary Trigger and until such time as the occurrence of a Cash Flow Trigger, Textura common stock will be valued for Credit Bank Account balance payment purposes in accordance with Section 3(d)(vi)(B)(b), and after the Cash Flow Trigger, the stock will be valued in accordance with its Fair Market Value. The term “Fair Market Value” shall be the value of Textura common stock as determined in any financing or capital raising conducted by Textura within six months of the common stock valuation, if such financing or capital raising, be it in the form of debt or equity, was for an amount greater than or equal to Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) and involving three or more investors (such activity referred to as a “Subsequent Capital Raising”), or, if no such Subsequent Capital Raising had then occurred, the value of Textura common stock as mutually determined by the Parties or, if the Parties are unable to reach a mutual agreement on such fair market value, by an independent public accounting firm that is mutually agreed upon by the Parties.

(ii) Development Work Purchases. Except as provided in this Agreement to the contrary, from time to time, Aon shall deposit additional amounts in the Credit Bank Account in anticipation of development work and maintenance and support services that Aon and Textura have mutually agreed upon being performed by Textura for Aon or an Affiliate of Aon under the Software Agreement, such that the Credit Bank Account has sufficient credits to cover the mutually agreed costs of existing development work, new development work and at least one (1) year of support for existing and new application hosting (including, without limitation, costs associated with hardware and third-party software licenses) as such costs are calculated in the agreed work order(s) that is applicable to such work and services (collectively, the aggregate of the foregoing is referred to as “Credit Bank Minimum”). Any such deposit shall be payable by Aon by wire transfer of funds to Textura as further set forth in the Software Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Aon is under no obligation to (1) keep a Credit Bank Minimum balance that would cause an aggregate balance in the Credit Bank Account to rise above the Cap, (2) include in its calculation of the Credit Bank Minimum any amounts in anticipation for development work that has not been agreed to by the Parties in an executed work order pursuant to the Software Development terms, (3) include in its calculation of the Credit Bank Minimum any amounts pursuant to any work orders that have expired or been terminated, or (4) maintain any Credit Bank Minimum if Aon has requested full payment of the Credit Bank Account balance pursuant to a Change in Control or Significant Event, in which such case Aon shall pay Textura for services provided under the Software Development Agreement with the remaining Credit Bank Account balance, if any, and then in cash.

As a condition precedent to the obligations of Textura in this Agreement, Aon agrees to return to Textura the original 2007 Warrant (or affidavit as to its termination and destruction) and execute, acknowledge and deliver such other instruments and documents as reasonably may be requested to more effectively terminate any interest of Aon with respect to the 0000 Xxxxxxx.
(b) Referral Performance Warrants. Aon will earn performance warrants as the current Aon general contractors listed in Schedule 3 hereto, as such Schedule may be amended from time to time upon mutual written agreement of the Parties (the “Listed General Contractors”), become Textura clients and meet minimum revenue targets, as follows.
(i) Upon execution of this Agreement, Textura shall deliver to Aon a warrant to purchase ten thousand (10,000) shares of common stock priced at $26.50 per share as consideration for Aon’s referral of PCL for CPM.
(ii) Upon the implementation of PQM by PCL and Tutor-Perini, Textura shall deliver to Aon a warrant to purchase up to three
thousand seven hundred fifty (3,750) shares of common stock priced at $26.50 per share for each implementation.
(iii) If within four (4) years after the Effective Date the total Revenue received by Textura with respect to CPM and PQM from the Aon Listed General Contractors (the “Performance Revenue”) is equal or greater than Forty Million Dollars (US $40,000,000), Textura shall deliver to Aon a warrant to purchase thirty thousand (30,000) shares of common stock priced at $26.50 per share.
(iv) If within four (4) years after the Effective Date, the Performance Revenue equals or exceeds Eighty Million Dollars (US $80,000,000), Textura shall deliver to Aon a warrant to purchase seventy thousand (70,000) shares of common stock priced at $26.50 per share in addition to the warrants described in Section 7(b)(iii) above.
(v) If, on the date four years after the Effective Date, the Performance Revenue does not equal or exceed Eighty Million Dollars (US $80,000,000), but exceeds Forty Million Dollars (US $40,000,000), Textura shall deliver to Aon a warrant to purchase additional shares of common stock equal to the sum of (A) thirty thousand (30,000) and (B) the product of (1) seventy thousand (70,000) times (2) a fraction, the numerator of which equals total Performance Revenue less Forty Million Dollars (US $40,000,000) and the denominator of which equals Forty Million Dollars (US $40,000,000), rounded by the nearest whole number.
Textura will calculate the Performance Revenue generated from the Listed General Contractors promptly after expiration of the four (4) year performance warrant period and, if Aon has earned any performance warrants, Textura will promptly issue and deliver such warrants to Aon, and will issue such warrants no later than 60 days after the expiration of such four (4) year period. Such warrants will be in the form of Exhibit A and must be exercised within five (5) years after the Effective Date. Upon expiration of the four (4) year performance period, Aon’s right to earn such warrants shall expire, and upon expiration of the five (5) year period, Aon’s right to exercise such warrants shall automatically expire. For the avoidance of doubt, the maximum warrants that can be earned under Sections 7(b)(iii), (iv) and (v) is One Hundred Thousand (100,000) warrants.
Section 8. Independent Contractor. The Parties agree and acknowledge that no relationship between Aon and Textura other than that of independent contractor is established hereby. Aon is not an employee, agent, joint venturer or partner of or with Textura and this Agreement does not create any agency between Aon and Textura. No Party shall represent to any third party that it is the employee, agent, joint venturer or partner of the other or make any representation or warranty on behalf of or in the name of the other or conduct any business or accept payment or service of legal process for the other.
Section 9. Geographic Scope. This Agreement shall be global in scope and thus apply to Clients anywhere in the world.
Section 10. Nonexclusivity.
(a) Generally. Subject to the limitations in Section 10(b), Textura shall have the right to enter into substantially similar referral fee agreements with other Parties, and provide any person the right to promote Textura’s products and services (including without limitation the Software).
(b) Co-Marketing and Co-Exhibiting Limitations. During the term of this Agreement, Textura shall not co-market or co-exhibit the Software with any Aon Competitor, except to the extent Aon provides advance consent in writing (which consent may be withheld in Aon’s reasonable discretion). For purpose of this Section 10(b), an “Aon Competitor” means an insurance broker that provides services to real property construction contractors, owners or developers anywhere in the world. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and for the avoidance of doubt, nothing herein restricts or prohibits Textura from (i) cooperating with an Aon Competitor to sell Textura products and/or services to an Aon Competitor client itself or jointly with such Aon Competitor, (ii) participating in an Aon Competitor sales or marketing event as a speaker (without making any payment to such Aon Competitor), or (iii) authorizing any Aon Competitor to use Textura’s name, trademarks and/or materials in such Aon Competitor’s marketing materials for the purpose of identifying Textura’s products and services. Textura hereby represents to Aon that it has not entered into any referral agreements with other third-parties that have terms more favorable to the third party to that agreement than the terms of this Agreement, including, without limitation with respect to the Referral Fee calculation and payment structure, are to Aon, and Textura agrees that if it shall enter into any such agreement which would make the representation in the preceding sentence if given then inaccurate, it shall immediately notify Aon of its existence and terms, and, unless Aon elects otherwise within ten (10) days of such notice, this Agreement shall be deemed to be amended to conform the provisions of this Agreement with such more favorable terms.
Section 11. Nonsolicitation. During the term of this Agreement and for one (1) year thereafter, neither Party shall employ or solicit for employment any employee, contractor or consultant of the other Party without the other Party’s prior written consent; provided, however, that neither Party shall be prohibited from soliciting for employment or employing any such person who has ceased to be employed by the other Party (as an employee, contractor or consultant, without any inducement by such Party) or from employing any such person who contacts the other Party (i) on his or her own initiative and without any direct or indirect solicitation, or (ii) in response to a general solicitation for employment, such as an advertisement published in a newspaper, periodical or similar publication or published on such Party’s website.
Section 12. Confidential Information. Each Party acknowledges that in performing under this Agreement, it and its personnel may have access to the other Party’s confidential and proprietary information (“Confidential Information”). Confidential Information shall include, without limitation, all information related to a Party’s general business operations (such as sales, marketing plans, costs, profits, pricing methods and financial information), software (source code and object code), algorithms, trade secrets, know-how, information technology systems,
equipment, technical designs, and maintenance policies and employee, supplier, and subscriber lists. The receiving Party shall treat all information learned or acquired in the course of performing under this Agreement as Confidential Information, unless it is clearly available to the general public or the receiving Party can show was already in its possession at the time of receipt or was independently developed without use of the disclosing Party’s Confidential Information or is hereafter is made public through no fault of the receiving party. The receiving Party will hold all of the disclosing Party’s Confidential Information in strict confidence and not use the disclosing party’s Confidential Information for the benefit of any third party or for any purpose other than as necessary to perform under this Agreement, and will not disclose Confidential Information to anyone except authorized employees with a need to know to perform under this Agreement. These restrictions will continue indefinitely, even after the expiration or termination of this Agreement.
Section 13. Miscellaneous.
(a) Limitation of Liability. EXCEPT FOR DAMAGES ARISING FROM BREACH OF CONFIDENTIALITY OR WILLFUL OR RECKLESS CONDUCT, IN NO EVENT SHALL EITHER PARTY BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, OR DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, DATA, OR USE, INCURRED BY SUCH PARTY OR ANY THIRD PARTY, WHETHER IN AN ACTION IN CONTRACT OR TORT, EVEN IF THE OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
(b) Force Majeure. Neither Party shall be in default or otherwise liable for any delay in or failure of its performance under this Agreement where such delay or failure arises by reason of any Act of God, or any government or any governmental body, acts of the common enemy, the elements, strikes or labor disputes, or other similar or dissimilar cause beyond the control of such Party.

EXHIBIT A
Explanation of PQM Revenue Calculation
Section I (x)(ii) of this Agreement specifies the definition of Revenue for Referrals use of the PQM application. This Exhibit sets forth the mechanics for calculating the PQM Revenue for a Referral’s subcontractors.
When a new Referral becomes a PQM client of Textura it is Textura’s intention to request a list of such Referral’s active subcontractors from the Referral and to contact each of them to sell PQM. Regardless of whether such list is provided or such contact is made, such Referral’s Revenue shall include amounts related to its subcontractors as follows:
1. Subcontractor does not purchase POM. In this instance no subcontractor Revenue is included in a Referral’s Revenue; however, if such subcontractor purchases PQM for use with a Referral the terms of paragraphs 2 or 3 below shall apply.
2. Subcontractor is not a current Textura PQM client and signs up for a PQM subscription. The entire subscription amount is included in Revenue and is therefore included in the calculation of the Referral’s Referral Fee. At each subsequent subscription renewal, as long as this subcontractor uses PQM to pre-qualify with at least one Referral, the entire renewal subscription amount is included in “Revenue” and is therefore included in the calculation of the Referral’s Referral Fee.
3. Subcontractor is a current Textura POM client and has not previously pre-qualified with a Referral and uses PQM to pre-qualify with the new Referral. When this subcontractor renews its subscription or adds to its subscription level going forward, the entire going forward subscription amount paid to Textura by such subcontractor (including such subscription amounts paid based on its pre-qualification for non-Referrals) is included in the Referral’s Revenue and is therefore included in the calculation of the Referral’s Referral Fee. At each subsequent subscription renewal, as long as this subcontractor uses PQM to pre-qualify with at least one Referral, the entire renewal subscription amount is included in Revenue and is therefore included in the calculation of the Referral’s Referral Fee.
4. Subcontractor is a current Textura PQM client and has previously pre-qualified with a Referral (“Initial Referral”) and uses PQM to pre-qualify with the new Referral (“Second Referral”). No separate Referral Fee is earned based on this relationship between the subcontractor and a Second Referral, as any additional Revenue generated from this second relationship would be included in the calculation of the Initial Referral’s revenue in accordance with the terms of paragraph 2 above. However, if the Second Referral eventually becomes the only Referral that such subcontractor has pre-qualified with due to the Initial Referral no longer being a “Referral” as defined in the Agreement, then all Revenue
generated by such subcontractor shall be included in the Referral Fee associated with the Second Referral. Revenue from subcontractors pre-qualifying with more than two Referrals shall be treated in a consistent manner with the foregoing.
5. Each dollar of subcontractor PQM revenue will only be included in the calculation of one Referral Fee. There will be no double counting of one dollar of revenue.

Section 3. Method of Exercise. The purchase right represented by this Warrant may be exercised by the Holder hereof by delivering the following to the principal office of the Company for receipt prior to the Expiration Time: (a) the notice of exercise form attached hereto as Exhibit A duly completed and executed and (b) the payment to the Company, by certified or bank check or by wire transfer, of an amount equal to the then applicable Warrant Price (as defined in Section 5(a) below) multiplied by the number of Warrant Shares being purchased.

In the event of any exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant, certificates for the Warrant Shares so purchased shall be delivered to the Holder as soon as possible and in any event within ten (10) days of receipt of such notice of exercise and payment of the then applicable Warrant Price.
Section 4. Warrant Shares Fully Paid, Reservation of Warrant Shares. The Company shall reserve at all times so long as this Warrant remains outstanding, free from preemptive rights (other than certain preemptive and other approval rights provided in the Company’s bylaws which have been waived and/or consented to by the Company’s existing stockholders) out of its authorized but unissued Common Stock, a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to provide for the issuance of Common Stock upon the exercise of this Warrant.

Section 5. Warrant Price and Adjustment to Warrant Price.
(a) Warrant Price. Subject to Section 5(b), the purchase price (“Warrant Price”) shall be equal to $26.50 per Warrant Share.

For the avoidance of doubt, (i) the issuance of shares of Common Stock, options to purchase Common Stock or other equity-based awards to the Company’s directors and employees pursuant to the Company’s employee benefit plans, or (ii) the issuance of shares of Common Stock and options or warrants to purchase Common Stock to service providers and vendors of the Company, in each case pursuant to employee benefit plans, agreements or other arrangements approved by the Company’s board of directors, shall not result in any adjustments pursuant to this Section 5(b).
(c) Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued or cash payment made in connection with any adjustment pursuant to Section 5(b). Any
fractional share of Common Stock issuable pursuant to this Warrant shall be rounded up if one-half share or more, or rounded down if less than one-half share.
