ARTICLE I
DEFINITIONS
For the purpose of this Agreement the following terms shall have the
following meanings:
1.1. "Adjustment" means the deemed increase or decrease in a Tax,
determined on an issue-by-issue or transaction-by-transaction basis, as
appropriate, and using the assumptions set forth in the next sentence, resulting
from an adjustment made or proposed by a Taxing Authority with respect to any
amount reflected or required to be reflected on any Return relating to such Tax.
For purposes of determining such deemed increase or decrease in a Tax, the
following assumptions will be used: (a) in the case of any income Tax, the
highest marginal Tax rate or, in the case of any other Tax, the highest
applicable Tax rate, in each case in effect with respect to that Tax for the
Taxable period or any portion of the Taxable period to which the adjustment
relates; and (b) such determination shall be made without regard to whether any
actual increase or decrease in such Tax will in fact be realized with respect to
the Return to which such adjustment relates.
1.2. "Affiliate" means, with respect to any Person, any Person directly or
indirectly controlling, controlled by, or under common control with, such other
Person. For the purposes of this definition, "control" means the possession,

management and policies of a Person, whether through the ownership of voting

any other member of the SeraNova Group, in which case SeraNova will be the
Controlling Party.

comprising a Non-Line of Business Adjustment, the net present value of any
future increases or decreases in a Tax that would be realized, using the

member of the Intelligroup Group or SeraNova or any other member of the SeraNova
Group, as the case may be, in one or more Taxable periods (or any portion of a
Taxable period) but only if such increases or decreases (a) are a direct result

effect in the Taxable period or portion of a Taxable period of or immediately
following the Taxable period or portion of a Taxable period in which the
Non-Line of Business Adjustment to such Tax is made. For purposes of determining

following assumptions will be used: (i) a discount rate equal to the sum of the
Federal Short-Term Rate as of the date of the Final Determination relating to
such Non-Line of Business Adjustment plus 3.5%; (ii) in the case of any income
Tax, the highest marginal Tax rate or, in the case of any other Tax, the highest

Business Adjustment was made; (iii) the depreciation, amortization or credit
rate or lives, if applicable, in effect for the Taxable period, or portion of

comments, if any, with respect thereto within a reasonable time before such

Independent Third Party with respect to all such Adjustments (and its shares
thereof) pursuant to Section 3.5 hereof.

period, the Interested Party shall be deemed to agree with all Disputed
Adjustments that were specifically enumerated in the Interested Party Notice and
waive its right to a determination by an Independent Third Party pursuant to
Section 3.5 hereof with respect to all such Disputed Adjustments unless, and to
the extent, that at any time during such thirty (30) day (or extended) period,
the Interested Party has given the Controlling Party notice that it is seeking a
determination by an Independent Third Party pursuant to Section 3.5 hereof
regarding the propriety of any such Disputed Adjustment.
(d) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, an
Interested Party that does not have a Significant Obligation with respect to an
Adjustment has no right to a determination by an Independent Third Party under
Section 3.5 hereof with respect to any such Adjustment.
3.5. TAX CONTEST DISPUTE RESOLUTION. (a) In the event that an Interested
Party has given the Controlling Party notice as required in Section 3.4(c)
hereof that it is seeking a determination by an Independent Third Party pursuant
to this Section 3.5 with respect to any Disputed Adjustment that was enumerated
in an Interested Party Notice, then the parties shall, within ten (10) days
after the Controlling Party has received such notice, jointly select an
Independent Third Party to make such determination. In the event that the
parties cannot jointly agree on an Independent Third Party to make such
determination within such ten (10) day period, then the Controlling Party and
the Interested Party shall each immediately select an Independent Third Party
and the Independent Third Parties so selected by the parties shall jointly
select, within ten (10) days of their selection, another Independent Third Party
to make such determination.
(b) In making its determination as to the propriety of any Disputed
Adjustment, the Independent Third Party selected pursuant to Section 3.5(a)
above shall assume that the Interested Party is not required or entitled under
applicable law to be a member of any Consolidated Return. In addition, the
Independent Third Party shall make its determination according to the following
procedure:
(i) The Independent Third Party shall analyze each Disputed
Adjustment for which a determination is sought pursuant to this Section 3.5 to
determine what is
-11-
a fair and appropriate outcome (hereinafter referred to as the "Ultimate
Determination") with respect to any such Disputed Amount, taking into account
the following exclusive criteria: (A) the facts relating to such Adjustment; (B)
the applicable law, if any, with respect to such Adjustment; (C) the position of
the applicable Taxing Authority with respect to compromise, settlement or
litigation of such Adjustment; (D) the strength of the factual and legal
arguments made by the Controlling Party in reaching the outcome with respect to
such Adjustment as reflected in the Final Determination of the Tax Contest; (E)
the strength of the factual and legal arguments being made by the Interested
Party for the alternative outcome being asserted by such Interested Party
(including the availability of facts, information and documentation to support
such alternative outcome); (F) the strength of the legal and factual support for
other potential, non-frivolous Adjustments with respect to matters that were
actually raised and contested by the applicable Taxing Authority in the Tax
Contest for which the Interested Party could have been liable under this
Agreement but which were eliminated or reduced as a result of the Controlling
Party agreeing to the Disputed Adjustment as reflected in the Final
Determination of the Tax Contest; (G) the effect of the actual outcome reached
with respect to the Disputed Adjustment on other Taxable periods and on other
positions taken or proposed to be taken in Returns filed or proposed to be filed
by the Interested Party; (H) the realistic possibility of avoiding examination
of potential, non-frivolous issues for which the Interested Party could be
liable under this Agreement and that were contemporaneously identified in
writings by the party or parties during the course of the Tax Contest but which
had not been raised and contested by the applicable Taxing Authority in the Tax
Contest; and (I) the benefits to the Interested Party in reaching a Final
Determination, and the strategy and rationale with respect to the Interested
Party's Disputed Adjustment that the Controlling Party had for agreeing to such
Disputed Adjustment in reaching the Final Determination, in each case that were
contemporaneously identified in writings by the party or parties during the
course of the Tax Contest.
(ii) The Interested Party shall only be entitled to modification
of its share of a Disputed Adjustment under this Section 3.5 if, as the case may
be, either (A) the amount that would be paid by the Interested Party under the
Ultimate Determination with respect to such Disputed Adjustment is less than 80%
of the amount that would be paid by the Interested Party with respect to such
Disputed Adjustment under the actual outcome reached with respect to such
Disputed Adjustment; or (B) the amount that would be received by the Interested
Party under the Ultimate Determination with respect to such Disputed Adjustment
is more than 120% of the amount that the Interested Party would receive with
respect to such Disputed Adjustment under the actual outcome reached with
respect to such Disputed Adjustment. If an Interested Party is entitled to
modification of its share of any Disputed Adjustment under the preceding
sentence, the amount the Interested Party is entitled to receive, or is required
to pay, as the case may be, with respect to such Disputed Adjustment shall be
equal to the amount of the Ultimate Determination of such Disputed Adjustment.
The Independent Third Party will provide notice to the Controlling Party and the
Interested Party stating whether the Interested Party is entitled to
modification of its share of the Disputed Adjustment pursuant to this paragraph
(ii) and, if the Interested Party is entitled to such modification, the amount
as determined in the preceding sentence that the Interested Party is entitled to
receive from, or required to pay to, the Controlling Party with respect to such
Disputed Adjustment.
(c) Any determination made or notice given by an Independent Third
Party pursuant to this Section 3.5 shall be (i) in writing; (ii) made within
thirty (30) days following the
-12-
selection of the Independent Third Party as set forth in Section 3.5(a) of this
Agreement unless such period is otherwise extended by the mutual consent of the
parties; and (iii) final and binding upon the parties. The costs of any
Independent Third Party retained pursuant to this Section 3.5 shall be shared
equally by the parties. The Controlling Party and the Interested Party shall
provide the Independent Third Party jointly selected pursuant to Section 3.5(a)
hereof with such information or documentation as may be appropriate or necessary
in order for such Independent Third Party to make the determination requested of
it. Upon issuance of an Independent Third Party's notice under Section
3.5(b)(ii) hereof, the Controlling Party or the Interested Party, as the case
may be, shall pay as specified in Article IV of this Agreement, the amount, if
any, of the Disputed Adjustment to the appropriate party.
ARTICLE IV
PROCEDURE AND PAYMENT
4.1. PROCEDURE. (a) If an Interested Party has any liability and/or
obligation to make, or the right to receive, any indemnity payment,
reimbursement or other payment with respect to an Adjustment under this
Agreement for which it does not have a right to a determination by an
Independent Third Party under Section 3.5 hereof, then the amount of such
Adjustment shall be immediately due and payable upon receipt by the Interested
Party of a notice of Final Determination of a Tax Contest as required and
specified in Section 3.4(a) hereof.
(b) If after (i) notice of a Final Determination of a Tax Contest as
required and specified in Section 3.4(a) hereof has been given by a Controlling
Party to an Interested Party; and (ii) the Interested Party receiving such
notice has either:
(A) failed to provide the Interested Party Notice specified
in Section 3.4(b) hereof within the thirty (30) day period set forth in Section
3.4(b);
(B) provided the Interested Party Notice specified in
Section 3.4(b) hereof within the thirty (30) day period specified in Section
3.4(b) agreeing to all Adjustments (and the Interested Party's share of all such
Adjustments) and waiving the right to an Independent Third Party determination
pursuant to Section 3.5 hereof with respect to all such Adjustments (and the
Interested Party's share of such Adjustments);
(C) provided the Interested Party Notice specified in
Section 3.4(b) hereof within the thirty (30) day period specified in Section
3.4(b) agreeing with some, but not all, Adjustments (and the Interested Party's
share of such agreed Adjustments) and waiving the right to an Independent Third
Party Determination pursuant to Section 3.5 hereof with respect to all such
agreed Adjustments (and the Interested Party's share of such Adjustments); or
(D) provided the Interested Party Notice specified in
Section 3.4(b) hereof within the thirty (30) day period specified in Section
3.4(b) specifically enumerating the Disputed Adjustments to which it does not
agree and for which the notice specified in either Section 3.5(b)(ii) hereof
relating to any such Disputed Adjustment has been given by an Independent Third
Party,
-13-
then the amount of any Adjustment agreed to or deemed to be agreed to by the
Interested Party, or for which an Independent Third Party notice has been given
pursuant to either Section 3.5(b)(ii) hereof, as set forth in each of clauses
(A), (B), (C) or (D) above, shall be immediately due and payable.
(c) Any Person entitled to any indemnification, reimbursement or other
payment under this Agreement with respect to the amount of any Adjustment that
has become immediately due and payable under Section 4.1(b) (the "Indemnified
Party") shall notify the Person against whom such indemnification, reimbursement
or other payment is sought (the "Indemnifying Party") of its right to and the
amount of such indemnification, reimbursement or other payment; provided,
however, that the failure to notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the
Indemnifying Party from any liability and/or obligation which it may have to an
Indemnified Party on account of the provisions contained in this Agreement
except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party was prejudiced by such failure,
and in no event shall such failure relieve the Indemnifying Party from any other
liability or obligation which it may have to such Indemnified Party. The
Indemnifying Party shall make such indemnity payment, reimbursement or other
payment to the Indemnified Party within thirty (30) days of the receipt of the
notice specified in the preceding sentence; provided, however, that, in the case
of any Final Determination of a Tax Contest involving a state, local or
municipal Tax in which the Indemnifying Party is also the Controlling Party with
respect to such Tax Contest and, as Controlling Party, is entitled to receive an
overall net refund from the applicable state, local or municipal Taxing
Authority with respect to such state, local or municipal Tax, then the
Indemnifying Party shall make such indemnity payment, reimbursement or other
payment to the Indemnified Party within thirty (30) days from the date the
Indemnifying Party actually receives payment of or obtains the benefit of the
net refund due from the applicable state, local or municipal Taxing Authority.
4.2. PAYMENT. Any indemnity payment, reimbursement or other payment
required to be made pursuant to this Agreement by an Indemnifying Party to an
Indemnified Party shall be made, at the option of the Indemnifying Party, by (a)
certified check payable to the order of the Indemnified Party; or (b) wire
transfer of immediately available funds to such bank and/or other account of the
Indemnified Party as from time to time the Indemnified Party shall have directed
the Indemnifying Party, in writing. Any indemnity payment, reimbursement or
other payment required to be made by an Interested Party pursuant to this
Agreement shall bear interest at the Federal Short-Term Rate plus 2%, per annum,
from the date such Interested Party receives the notice of Final Determination
made with respect to a Tax Contest as provided in Section 3.4(a) hereof. Any
indemnity payment, reimbursement or other payment required to be made by a
Controlling Party to an Interested Party pursuant to this Agreement shall bear
interest at the Federal Short-Term Rate plus 2%, per annum, from a date thirty
(30) days after the date of a Final Determination made with respect to a Tax
Contest; provided, however, that, in the case of any Final Determination of a
Tax Contest involving a state, local or municipal Tax in which the Controlling
Party is entitled to receive an overall net refund from the applicable state,
local or municipal Taxing Authority with respect to such state, local or
municipal Tax, such indemnity payment, reimbursement or other payment to be made
by the Controlling Party shall bear interest at the Federal Short-Term Rate plus
2%, per annum, from the date the Controlling Party actually receives payment of
or obtains the benefit of the net refund due from the applicable state, local or
municipal Taxing Authority.
