designated space in the buildings generally designated as “Building III and Building IV” and/or in
any of the other buildings that Landlord owns or leases from time to time that are part of the

are hereby specifically excluded from provisions of this Lease (and, for purposes of this Lease,
from the definition of “Corporate Campus”). The parties further acknowledge and agree that,
initially hereunder, the Premises constitute [________] rentable square feet representing
approximately [____%] (“Tenant’s Share”) (including a load fact of [____%] for common/shared space)
of the [________] rentable square feet of space at the Corporate Campus, it being
understood that the parties anticipate that Tenant’s Share shall
1
fluctuate and change as and when the rentable square feet of space allocated and leased to
Tenant hereunder changes.
1.2 Reallocations of Space. Notwithstanding any other provision herein or in any other
agreement or instrument to the contrary, the parties understand and acknowledge that Landlord and
Tenant anticipate that there will be reallocations of office space among Landlord, Tenant and FNF,
including one or more reallocations during calendar year 2008. The parties hereby agree that
Tenant’s Share may, by mutual agreement, increase or decrease from time to time during the term of
this Lease, in which case the parties shall memorialize the changes in (i) rentable square footage
of the Premises, (ii) Tenant’s Share and (iii) monthly Base Rent. In such event, Tenant’s Base
Rent and Additional Rent shall be re-calculated based on the rentable square foot leased and
allocated to Tenant, determined as a percentage of the total rentable square foot of office space
available at the Corporate Campus.
2. Term. The initial term of this Lease shall be for three (3) years commencing June 30,
2008 (“Commencement Date”) and terminating on June 30, 2011 (“Initial Term”).
3. Rent.
3.1 Base Rent. Tenant shall pay to Landlord base rent (“Base Rent”), at an annual rate of
[$________] per rentable square foot, in equal monthly installments of [$________] without prior
notice or demand, in advance, on the first day of each calendar month at such place as Landlord may
direct, in writing. If the Term commences on a day other than the first day of a calendar month,
Tenant shall pay to Landlord, on or before the Commencement Date, a pro rata portion of the monthly
installment of Base Rent, such pro rata portion to be based on the actual number of calendar days
remaining in such partial month after the Commencement Date. If the Term shall expire on other
than the last day of a calendar month, such monthly installment of Base Rent shall be prorated for
each calendar day of such partial month. If any portion of Base Rent or other sum payable to
Landlord hereunder shall be due and unpaid for more than fifteen (15) days after written notice
from Landlord to Tenant that such payment has not been received, it shall thereafter bear interest
at a rate equal to twelve percent (12%) per annum (the “Default Rate”).
3.2 Additional Rent. In addition to paying Base Rent, for each calendar year commencing with
calendar year 2008, Tenant shall pay as additional rent (“Additional Rent” and, together with Base
Rent, collectively, the “Rent”) Tenant’s Share of Landlord’s reasonable estimate of operating
expenses for the entire Corporate Campus (“Operating Expenses”) that are in excess of the Operating
Expenses applicable to the 2004 base year (the “Base Year”), which for the purposes of this Lease,
the Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses in the Base Year are [$________] per rentable square foot
per year. Landlord reasonably estimates Tenant’s Additional Rent for the calendar year 2008 is
[$________] per rentable square foot per year or [$________] per month, which when combined with the
Base Rent shall result in a monthly Rent payment of [$________], which is equal to [$________] per
rentable square foot per year for 2008. Commencing August 1, 2008, and otherwise as set forth
herein, Tenant shall pay Additional Rent at the same times and in the same manner as Base Rent.
Landlord shall adjust Additional Rent on an annual basis in 2008 and 2009 based on the same above
principles. Tenant shall be
2
liable to Landlord for the entire cost (as opposed to Tenant’s Share) of Landlord’s costs of
providing any services or materials exclusively to Tenant.
3.2.1 Calculation and Payment. Landlord shall deliver to Tenant on or before the
first day of March following the end of each year following the Base Year (an “Expense Year”) a
statement setting forth (i) the amount Tenant paid as Rent for the applicable Expense Year, and
(ii) the actual amount of Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses for the applicable Expense Year. If
the amount Tenant paid as Rent for the applicable Expense Year exceeds the actual amount of
Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses for the applicable Expense Year, then Landlord shall credit
such difference on Tenant’s next payment(s) of Rent. If the amount Tenant paid as Rent for the
applicable Expense Year was less than the actual amount of Tenant’s Share of Operating Expenses for
the applicable Expense Year, then Tenant shall pay such difference as Additional Rent to Landlord
on Tenant’s next payment of Rent. Landlord’s failure to furnish such statement for any Expense
Year in a timely manner shall not prejudice Landlord from enforcing its rights hereunder. Even if
the Lease term has expired and Tenant has vacated the Premises, if an excess or shortfall exists
when the final determination is made, Tenant shall immediately pay or receive a credit of such
excess or shortfall.
3.2.2 Items Included in Operating Expenses. Except as otherwise set forth herein, the
term “Operating Expenses” includes all expenses, costs, and amounts of every kind that Landlord
pays or incurs during any Expense Year because of or in connection with the ownership, operation,

6
additional rental due under this Lease. If the premiums should increase or decrease at any time,
Tenant’s pro rata share and Tenant’s payments shall be appropriately adjusted.
7.1 Liability Insurance. Tenant and Landlord shall each separately maintain at all times
during the Initial Term and any Renewal Term and keep in force for their mutual benefit, commercial
general liability insurance against claims for personal injury, death or property damage occurring

the limit of not less than $5,000,000 combined single limit. Such insurance may be covered under a

entity. Certificates of all policies of insurance shall be delivered to the party requesting the
certificates or parties designated by the party requesting the certificates upon written request.

clause from their respective insurers which establishes a waiver of the insurer’s subrogation
against Landlord or Tenant as the case may be for any property loss (real/personal property or

Landlord or Tenant, covering direct or indirect property loss, shall include a waiver of
subrogation clause in favor of the other party as the case may be.
8. Utilities. Landlord and Tenant agree that the Corporate Campus (including the buildings
located thereon) is already connected for sewer, water, gas, and electricity. Subject to Tenant’s
obligations to pay Tenant’s Share of the cost Landlord incurs in supplying utilities to the common
areas, Tenant shall pay all utility expenses incurred by Tenant in connection with Tenant’s use of
the Premises (collectively, “Tenant’s Utility Expenses”). In the event utility service is
interrupted to the Premises due to the need for maintenance and repair to the utility lines,
Landlord shall immediately commence restoration and repairs of the lines and conduits in order that
said utility service shall be resumed at the earliest possible time. If Landlord shall fail to
make such repairs after written notice from Tenant, Tenant may do so at Landlord’s expense.
Additionally, should there be an interruption in the utilities for more than 24 hours due to the
Landlord’s gross negligence, rent shall be abated until the utilities are restored.
9. Maintenance and Repairs. Structural portions of the Premises, including the roof,
foundation, exterior walls and load bearing interior walls, shall be maintained and repaired by
Landlord except to the extent repairs are made necessary by the acts of Tenant. Except for the
repairs and maintenance Landlord is specifically obligated to make under this Section, Tenant shall
maintain and keep the entire Premises including all partitions, doors, ceiling, fixtures, equipment
and appurtenances thereof in good order, condition and repair, reasonable wear and tear excepted at
the sole expense of Tenant. To the extent an HVAC system serves the Premises exclusively, Tenant
shall be responsible for maintaining an HVAC service contract for routine filter changing and
general upkeep. Landlord may disapprove the contractor, provided however, its approval may not be
unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.
10. Common Area Maintenance. Landlord shall keep the common area in good repair during the
term or extension thereof, reasonable wear and tear excepted.
7
11. Alterations and Improvements. Tenant shall have the right at any time throughout the
term of this Lease and any extensions hereof, to make or cause to be made, any alterations,
additions, or improvements, or install or cause to be installed any trade fixture, signs, floor
covering, interior or exterior painting or lighting, plumbing fixtures, shades or awnings, as
Tenant may deem necessary or suitable with Landlord’s prior written approval, which approval shall
not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Upon the expiration of the Initial Term of this Lease,
Tenant shall have the option to remove such alterations, decorations, additions or improvements
made by it, provided any damage to Premises resulting from such removal is repaired. Also, upon
the expiration of the Initial Term of this Lease, Tenant if requested by Landlord shall remove any
signs and repair any damages to the Premises resulting from such removal. During the term, Tenant
shall not make any alterations, additions, improvements, non-cosmetic changes or other material
changes to the Premises without the prior written approval of Landlord, which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant shall be permitted to make
Minor Alterations (as defined below) without Landlord’s prior written consent. Minor Alterations,
as used herein, shall be defined as any alterations, improvements, etc. made to the Premises
(excluding the facade thereof) which do not affect the structure of the buildings, their systems or
equipment. If Landlord approves any alterations, additions, improvements, etc., Landlord shall
notify Tenant, in writing, along with Landlord’s approval notice, of whether Tenant shall, upon
termination of this Lease, either: (i) remove any such alterations or additions and repair any
damage to the Premises (or the buildings in which the Premises are located) occasioned by their
installation or removal and restore the Premises to substantially the same condition as existed
prior to the time when any such alterations or additions were made, or (ii) reimburse Landlord for
the cost of removing such alterations or additions and the restoration of the Premises.
12. Fire or Casualty. If more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the Premises or the use,
occupancy or access to or of the Premises shall be destroyed in whole or in part by fire or other
casualty, Tenant may in its reasonable discretion terminate this Lease. If less than twenty-five
percent (25%) of the Premises shall be destroyed in whole or in part by fire or casualty, the Rent
due during the remainder of the Lease term shall be reduced in proportion to the area destroyed,
effective on the date of the casualty. Within thirty (30) days after the date of a fire or other
casualty, Landlord must inform Tenant if the Premises and the buildings in which the Premises are
located will be rebuilt. If the Premises is to be rebuilt and Tenant elects not to terminate the
Lease, the Premises (including the office buildings in which the Premises are located, must be
rebuilt and ready for occupancy within ninety (90) days of date of fire or other casualty.
Landlord and Tenant agree and covenant that neither shall be liable to the other for loss arising
out of damage to or destruction of the Premises or contents thereof when such loss is caused by any
perils included within, and covered by, standard fire and extended coverage insurance policy of the
state of Florida. This Lease shall be binding whether or not such damage or destruction is caused
by negligence of either Party or their agents, employees or visitors. Landlord agrees to carry
fire and extended coverage to the extent required by its lender, and if there is no lender, in an
amount satisfactory to Landlord.
13. Eminent Domain. If more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the Premises (or the use,
occupancy or access to or of the Premises) shall be taken or condemned by any governmental or
quasi-governmental authority for any public or quasi-public use or purpose (including sale under
threat of such a taking), or if the owner elects to convey title to the condemnor by a deed in lieu
8
of condemnation, then Tenant may in its discretion terminate the Lease and be relieved from further
liability hereunder. If less than twenty -five percent (25%) of the Premises (or the use,
occupancy or access to or of the Premises) shall be taken or condemned by any governmental or
quasi-governmental authority for any public or quasi-public use or purpose (including sale under
threat of such a taking), or if Tenant elects not to terminate this Lease, the Rent due during the
remainder of the Lease term shall be reduced in proportion to the area taken, effective on the date
physical possession is taken by the condemning authority; provided, however, that in the event
Tenant cannot reasonably operate its business at the Premises due to such partial taking, Tenant
shall be permitted to terminate this Lease by written notice to Landlord.
14. Tenant’s Default.
14.1 Any other provisions in this Lease notwithstanding, it shall be an event of default
(“Event of Default”) under this Lease if: (i) Tenant fails to pay any installment of rent or any
other sum payable by Tenant hereunder when due and such failure continues for a period of ten (10)
days after written notice from Landlord to Tenant that such payment has not been received, or (ii)
Tenant fails to observe or perform any other material covenant or agreement of Tenant herein
contained and such failure continues after written notice given by or on behalf of Landlord to
Tenant for more than thirty (30) days, provided, however, that if such non-monetary
Event of Default by Tenant cannot reasonably be cured within such thirty (30) day period, and
provided further that Tenant is proceeding with due diligence to effect a cure of said Event of
Default, no Event of Default hereunder shall be declared by Landlord if Tenant continues to proceed
with diligence to cure said Event of Default, but in no event shall such cure period extend beyond
ninety (90) days following notice from Landlord of such violation, default or breach, or (iii)
Tenant files a petition commencing a voluntary case, or has filed against it a petition commencing
an involuntary case, under the Federal Bankruptcy Code (Title 11 of the United States Code), as now
or hereafter in effect, or under any similar law, or files or has filed against it a petition or
answer in bankruptcy or for reorganization or for an arrangement pursuant to any state bankruptcy
law or any similar state law, and, in the case of any such involuntary action, such action shall
not be dismissed, discharged or denied within sixty (60) days after the filing thereof, or Tenant
consents or acquiesces in the filing thereof, or (iv) a custodian, receiver, trustee or liquidator
of Tenant or of all or substantially all of Tenant’s property or of the Premises shall be appointed
in any proceedings brought by or against Tenant and, in the latter case, such entity shall not be
discharged within sixty (60) days after such appointment or Tenant consents to or acquiesces in
such appointment, or (v) Tenant shall generally not pay Tenant’s debts as such debts become due, or
shall make an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or shall admit in writing its inability to
pay its debts generally as they become due. The notice and grace period provisions in clauses (i)
and (ii) above shall have no application to the Events of Default referred to in clauses (iii)
through (v) above.
14.2 If Tenant shall fail to make any payment of rent when due or if Tenant shall fail to keep
and perform any express written covenant of this Lease and shall continue in default for a period
of ten (10) days after Tenant has received written notice of such default and demand of performance
from Landlord, Landlord may commence judicial proceedings, provided, however, if any default shall
occur (other than in the payment of rent) which cannot be cured within a period of thirty (30) days
and Tenant, prior to the expiration of thirty (30) days from and after the giving of notice as
aforesaid, commences to eliminate such default and proceeds diligently to
9
take steps to cure the same, Landlord shall not have the right to declare the term ended by
reason thereof for an additional period of sixty (60) days.
14.3 In the event of any such Event of Default, Landlord at any time thereafter may at its
option exercise any remedies available to Landlord at law or in equity, including, without
limitation, one or more of the following remedies:
(i) Termination of Lease. Landlord may terminate this Lease, by written notice to
Tenant, without any right by Tenant to reinstate its rights by payment of rent due or other
performance of the terms and conditions hereof. Upon such termination Tenant shall immediately
surrender possession of the Premises to Landlord, and Landlord shall immediately become entitled to
receive from Tenant an amount equal to the difference between the aggregate of all rent reserved
under this Lease for the balance of the Initial Term or Renewal Term, as the case may be, and the
fair rental value of the Premises for that period, determined as of the date of such termination,
and reduced by the amount Landlord may obtain upon reletting, discounted to present value at the
rate of ten percent (10%).
(ii) Reletting. With or without terminating this Lease, as Landlord may elect,
Landlord may, by summary proceedings, re-enter and repossess the Premises, or any part thereof, and
lease them to any other person upon such terms as Landlord shall deem reasonable, for a term within
or beyond the term of this Lease; provided, that any such reletting prior to termination
shall be for the account of Tenant, and Tenant shall remain liable for (i) all rent and other sums
which would be payable under this Lease by Tenant in the absence of such expiration, termination or
repossession, less (ii) the net proceeds, if any, of any reletting effected for the account of
Tenant after deducting from such proceeds all of Landlord’s actual expenses, attorneys’ fees,
employees’ expenses, reasonable alteration costs, expenses of preparation for such reletting and
all other actual costs and expenses incurred as a result of Tenant’s breach of this Lease.
Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to relet the Premises. If the Premises are at
the time of default sublet or leased by Tenant to others, Landlord may, as Tenant’s agent, collect
rents due from any subtenant or other tenant and apply such rents to the rent and other amounts due
hereunder without in any way affecting Tenant’s obligation to Landlord hereunder.
(iii) Injunction. In the event of breach by either party of any provision of this
Lease, the other party shall have the right of injunction and the right to invoke any remedy
allowed at law or in equity in addition to other remedies provided for herein.
(iv) No Exclusive Right. No right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to
Landlord or Tenant is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy herein or by law
provided, but each shall be cumulative and in addition to every other right or remedy given herein
or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute.
(v) Expenses. In the event that either Landlord or Tenant exercises any of the
remedies provided herein, the wrongful party shall pay to the other all actual expenses incurred in
connection therewith, including reasonable attorneys’ fees.
10
15. Landlord’s Default. If Landlord shall be in default or shall fail or refuse to perform
or comply with any of its obligations under this Lease and shall continue in default for a period
of thirty (30) days after Tenant has given Landlord written notice of such default and demand of
performance, Tenant may remedy the same and deduct the cost thereof from subsequent installments of
rent or terminate the Lease and recover from Landlord any and all damages Tenant may have incurred
due to such default or failure. Upon any default by Landlord under this Lease, Tenant may, except
as otherwise specifically provided in this Lease to the contrary, exercise any of its rights
provided at law or in equity.
16. Assignment and Sub-letting. Tenant shall not have the right to assign, sublet,
transfer, or encumber this Lease or its rights hereunder or any part thereof at any time without
the Landlord’s prior written consent, except for the Permitted Transfers (defined below). A
“Permitted Transfer” means an assignment or sublet to (i) any entity controlled by, controlling, or
under common control with Tenant (a “Tenant Affiliate”) or a Tenant Affiliate, or (ii) any entity
with which Tenant or a Tenant Affiliate may merge or consolidate, which acquires all or
substantially all of the assets or shares of stock of Tenant or a Tenant Affiliate, or (iii) any
entity that is the successor in the event of a reorganization. In instances other than Permitted
Transfers, Landlord agrees not to withhold or delay its written consent if to do so would be
commercially unreasonable. In the event of any assignment of this Lease by Tenant, Tenant shall
not be and is not relieved of any liability under any and all of its covenants and obligations
contained in or derived from this Lease arising out of any act, occurrence or omission occurring
after said assignment; provided, however that the Tenant’s assignee assumes all obligations of
Tenant hereunder and attorns to Landlord for such obligations. Landlord may assign this Lease in
connection with the sale or financing of the Demised Premises provided that (i) no such assignment
may impose upon Tenant any obligations greater than set forth in the Lease; and (ii) Landlord gives
notice to Tenant within thirty (30) days following the effective date of the assignment which
contains the assignee’s name, address, telephone number, and the name of the individual handling
the affairs relating to this Lease. Any rents received by Landlord hereunder, which in fact belong
to the assignee of Landlord, shall be held in trust by Landlord and forwarded immediately to the
assignee of Landlord. In the event of any assignment or sublease, Tenant shall remain responsible
for the payment of rent and for the performance of all terms, covenants and conditions undertaken
by Tenant pursuant to this Lease unless otherwise agreed to by Landlord in writing.
17. Holding Over. In the event Tenant remains in possession of the Premises after the
expiration of the Initial Term or a Renewal Term without executing a new Lease, Tenant shall occupy
the Premises from month to month at a rental rate of 150% of the applicable rental rate during the
last month of the term, subject to all of the covenants of this Lease insofar as consistent with
such a tenancy. The provisions of this Section 17 shall not be deemed to limit or constitute a
waiver of any other rights or remedies of Landlord provided herein or at law.
18. Signage. Tenant shall retain, throughout the term of the Lease, the signage rights it
presently has on the exterior of the buildings on the Corporate Campus, the monument signage at
Riverside Avenue, directory and suite entry signage. Unless otherwise consented to by Landlord,
Tenant and FNF, the only other signage that may appear on the exterior of the buildings on the
Corporate Campus and on the exterior monument signage during the Term shall be that of Landlord or
Tenant, or of FNF. Any proposed change of the monument signage, or the
11
signage on Buildings I or Building V, from that existing on the Commencement Date shall require the
mutual agreement of Landlord, Tenant and FNF. Any proposed change of the signage on any other
building on the Corporate Campus in which Tenant occupies space from that existing on the
Commencement Date shall require the mutual agreement of Landlord and Tenant, it being
understood that other than Building I and Building V, if Tenant does not occupy space therein,
Tenant shall have no signage rights or right to consent to any change thereto. If the parties are
unable to reach agreement on any such proposed change to the monument or building signage, then the
matter shall be referred to the Chief Executive Officers of each of Landlord, Tenant and FNF.
19. Hazardous Materials. Landlord and Tenant agree to indemnify and hold harmless the
other from any and all claims, damages, fines, judgments, penalties, costs, liabilities or losses
(including, without limitation, any and all sums paid for settlement of claims, attorneys fees,
consultant and expert fees) arising during or after the lease term from or in connection with the
presence or suspected presence of hazardous substances in, on or beneath the Premises, unless the
hazardous substances are present as the result of negligence, willful misconduct or other acts of
the party otherwise so indemnified, its agents, employees, contractors or invitees. Without
limitation of the foregoing, this indemnification shall include any and all costs incurred due to
any investigation by a federal, state or local agency or political subdivision, unless the
hazardous substances are present solely as the result of negligence, willful misconduct or other
acts of the party otherwise so indemnified, its agents, employees, contractors or invitees. This
indemnification shall specifically include any and all costs due to hazardous substances which
flow, diffuse, migrate or percolate into, onto or under the Premises after the Commencement Date.
Each of the parties agrees to comply with all laws, codes, rules, and regulations of the United
States and the State of Florida. Tenant agrees that it will not store, keep, use, sell, dispose of
or offer for sale in, upon or from the Premises any article or substance which may be prohibited by
any insurance policy in force from time to time covering the buildings in which the Premises are
located, nor shall Tenant keep, store, produce or dispose of on, in or from the Premises or the
buildings in which the Premises are located any substance which may be deemed a hazardous substance
or infectious waste under any state, local or federal rule, statute, law, regulation or ordinance
as may be promulgated or amended from time to time. As used herein, “hazardous substance” means
any substance which is toxic, ignitable, reactive, or corrosive and which is regulated by any local
government, the state in which the Premises is located, or the United States government or poses a
threat to human health or the environment, and includes any and all material and substances which
are defined as “hazardous waste”, “toxic substances” or a “hazardous substance” pursuant to state,
federal or local governmental law, including, but not restricted to, asbestos, polychlorobiphenyls
and petroleum.
20. Americans with Disabilities Act. Each of Landlord and Tenant represents and warrants
that any alterations, modifications, upfit or construction performed by it shall be performed in
compliance with the ADA.
21. Subordination. Subject to the covenant given by Landlord in this paragraph to obtain
nondisturbance and attornment agreements with any mortgage or beneficiary of a deed of trust
encumbering the property, Tenant agrees that this Lease is and shall remain subject and subordinate
to any mortgage given by Landlord on the property or the buildings in which the Premises are
located, and Landlord’s interest in this Lease may be assigned as security for any
12
present and future mortgages or deeds of trust attaching the property and all renewals,
modifications, replacements and extensions thereof. However, Landlord shall enter only into
financing and mortgage agreements which allow Tenant to retain its leasehold interest in the
Premises provided Tenant is not in default under this Lease and which obligates Tenant to abide by
all the terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease in the event the mortgagee takes title to the
Premises through foreclosure or accepts a deed in lieu of foreclosure. At any time and from time
to time upon not less than fifteen (15) days’ prior notice by Landlord to Tenant, Tenant shall,
without charge, execute, acknowledge and deliver to Landlord a statement prepared by Landlord, in a
form for Tenant to fill in and sign, certifying whether (i) this lease is unmodified and in full
force and effect (or if there have been modifications, whether the same is in full force and effect
as modified and stating the modifications), (ii) the Term has commenced and Base Rent and
Additional Rent have become payable hereunder and, if so, the dates to which they have been paid,
(iii) whether or not, to the knowledge of the signer of such certificate, Landlord is in default in
performance of any of the terms of this Lease and, if so, specifying each such default of which the
signer may have knowledge, (iv) Tenant has accepted possession of the Premises, (v) Tenant has made
any claim against Landlord under this Lease and, if so, the nature thereof and the dollar amount,
if any, of such claim, (vi) Tenant then claims any offsets or defenses against enforcement of any
of the terms of this Lease upon the part of Tenant to be performed, and, if so, specifying the
same, and (vii) such further information with respect to the Lease or the Premises as Landlord may
reasonably request. Any such statement delivered pursuant hereto may be relied upon by any
prospective purchaser of the Premises or any part thereof or of the interest of Landlord in any
part thereof, by any mortgagee or prospective mortgagee thereof, by any lessor or prospective
lessor thereof, by any lessee or prospective lessee thereof, or by any prospective assignee of any
mortgage thereof.
22. Attorney’s Fees. In connection with any litigation arising out of this Lease, the
prevailing party, Tenant or Landlord, shall be entitled to recover all costs incurred, including
reasonable attorney’s fees.
23. Limitation on Liability. Neither party is liable to the other for under this lease for
any special, incidental, punitive or consequential damages of any kind or nature, including,
without limitation, any lost profits or loss of business. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary, Landlord is not liable for flood water damage unless Landlord is grossly negligent or
willful misconduct. Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant or to Tenant’s employees, agents or
invitees, or to any other person or entity, whomsoever, for any injury to person or damage to or
loss of property on or about the Premises or the common area caused by the negligence, acts or
omissions, or misconduct of Tenant, its employees, or of any other person entering the buildings in
which the Premises are located under the express or implied invitation of Tenant, or arising out of
the use of the Leased Premises by Tenant and the conduct of its business therein, or arising out of
any breach or default by Tenant in the performance of its obligations under this Lease or resulting
from any other cause whatsoever, except Landlord’s gross negligence; and Tenant hereby agrees to
indemnify Landlord and hold it harmless from any loss, cost, expense or claims arising out of any
such damage or injury.
13
24. Services Provided by Landlord.
24.1 Security. Tenant shall adhere to Landlord’s security procedures as they pertain to the
Premises. This may include, but not be limited to, proper display of security badges, maintaining
accurate employee access rosters, and assisting Landlord in the investigation of security related
matters. Landlord agrees to provide Tenant with the same security services that Landlord provides
throughout the Corporate Campus, subject to Tenant’s compliance with Landlord’s security procedures
and subject to Tenant’s obligation to pay Tenant’s share of the cost thereof.
24.2 Mail Services. Landlord covenants and agrees that throughout the term of this Lease
Landlord shall provide Tenant with mail delivery services within the Corporate Campus.
24.3 Telecommunications Services. Landlord covenants and agrees to provide to Tenant the
following telecommunication services and equipment at the Corporate Campus, including Building V:
(i) Supply of all Handsets,
(ii) Voicemail,
(iii) Maintenance of Computer Servers that Route Tenant’s Telephone Calls
(“Public Branch Exchange” or “PBX” Units),
(iv) Call accounting program and maintenance, and
(v) Supply all cabling infrastructure.
The following services are specifically excluded:

(y) Project work related to new PBX’s.
Tenant hereby agrees to pay to Landlord Tenant’s respective share of the telecommunications
services listed above incurred by Landlord at the entire Corporate Campus, including for these
purposes, Building V and parking garage. The costs to be allocated to Tenant will be proportionate
to Tenant’s utilization of the telecommunications systems, including long distance telephone
charges, and shall be allocated on an employee headcount basis, taking into account the aggregate
number of Tenant employees as compared to the aggregate number of persons (including without
limitation Landlord employees and employees of FNF) with telecommunication services at the
Corporate Campus. Within 30 days after the end of each calendar month, LPS shall prepare and
deliver to FIS a monthly summary statement (each a “Monthly Telecommunications Cost Summary
Statement”) setting forth all of the costs owing by FIS to LPS hereunder. For sake of
clarification, the Parties acknowledge that unless and until the Parties agree otherwise, all
Monthly Telecommunications Summary Statements required hereunder shall be incorporated into and be
a part of the respective Monthly Summary Statement referred to in the Master Accounting and Billing
Agreement dated as of June ___, 2008 (the “Billing Agreement”) between FIS and LPS.
14
Landlord’s obligation to provide telecommunication services hereunder may be terminated at any time
with the consent of both Parties. In the event that the obligation to provide telecommunication
services is terminated at the request of either party, Tenant shall compensate Landlord for the
costs, if any, actually incurred by Landlord for any unamortized telecommunications equipment
provided hereunder that was purchased or otherwise acquired for use by Tenant and for which
Landlord has no other use after the termination of the telecommunication services hereunder (it
being understood that Landlord shall use its reasonable best efforts to mitigate any such costs).
25. Memorandum of Lease. Tenant shall not record this Lease or a Memorandum of Lease.
26. Confidentiality. Each Party shall keep confidential any and all information concerning
the other Party which it may obtain pursuant to this Lease, and agrees not to disclose such
information to any person unless authorized to do so by the Party in question. The provisions of
this Section 26 shall not, however, apply to information made generally available to the public by
any Party or by third parties through lawful channels, or information which is obtained from a
third person who (insofar as is known to the recipient of such information) is lawfully in
possession of such information and not in violation of any contractual, legal or fiduciary
obligation to a Party with respect to such information.
27. Limitation of Liability. EACH PARTY SHALL BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER FOR ALL DIRECT
DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO ANY CLAIMS, ACTIONS, LOSSES, COSTS, DAMAGES AND EXPENSES
RELATED TO, IN CONNECTION WITH OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT. EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT ARISING FROM
GROSS NEGLIGENCE, WILLFUL MISCONDUCT, OR BY REASON OF A BREACH OF WARRANTY, ANY PARTY’S LIABILITY
FOR ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION WHETHER BASED IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE WHICH ARISES UNDER OR
IS RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE LIMITED TO THE OTHER PARTY’S DIRECT OUT-OF-—POCKET DAMAGES,
ACTUALLY INCURRED. IN NO EVENT SHALL EITHER PARTY BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, PUNITIVE,
INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY KIND WHATSOEVER.
28. Dispute Resolution
28.1 Amicable Resolution. The Parties mutually desire that friendly collaboration will
continue between them. Accordingly, they will try to resolve in an amicable manner all
disagreements and misunderstandings connected with their respective rights and obligations under
this Lease, including any amendments hereto. In furtherance thereof, in the event of any dispute
or disagreement (a “Dispute”) between the Parties in connection with this Lease, then the Dispute,
upon written request of either Party, will be referred for resolution to the General Counsels of
the Parties, which General Counsels will have ten (10) days to resolve such Dispute.
28.2 Mediation. In the event any Dispute cannot be resolved in a friendly manner as set forth
in Section 28.1, the Parties intend that such Dispute be resolved by mediation. If the General
Counsels of the Parties are unable to resolve the Dispute as contemplated by Section 28.1, either
Party may demand mediation of the Dispute by written notice to the other, in which case the two
Parties will select a single mediator within ten (10) days after the demand. Neither
15
Party may unreasonably withhold consent to the selection of the mediator. Each Party will
bear its own costs of mediation but both Parties will share the costs of the mediator equally.
28.3 Arbitration. In the event that the Dispute is not resolved pursuant to Section 28.1 or
through mediation pursuant to Section 28.2, the latter within thirty (30) days of the submission of
the Dispute to mediation, either Party involved in the Dispute may submit the dispute to binding
arbitration pursuant to this Section 28.3. All Disputes submitted to arbitration pursuant to this
Section 28.3 shall be resolved in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American
Arbitration Association, unless the Parties involved mutually agree to utilize an alternate set of
rules, in which event all references herein to the American Arbitration Association shall be deemed
modified accordingly. Expedited rules shall apply regardless of the amount at issue. Arbitration
proceedings hereunder may be initiated by either Party making a written request to the American
Arbitration Association, together with any appropriate filing fee, at the office of the American
Arbitration Association in Orlando, Florida. All arbitration proceedings shall be held in the city
of Jacksonville, Florida in a location to be specified by the arbitrators (or any place agreed to
by the Parties and the Arbitrators). The arbitration shall be by a single qualified arbitrator
experienced in the matters at issue, such arbitrator to be mutually agreed upon by the Parties. If
the Parties fail to agree on an arbitrator thirty (30) days after notice of commencement of
arbitration, the American Arbitration Association shall, upon the request of any Party to the
dispute or difference, appoint the arbitrator. Any order or determination of the arbitral tribunal
shall be final and binding upon the Parties to the arbitration as to matters submitted and may be
enforced by any Party to the Dispute in any court having jurisdiction over the subject matter or
over any of the Parties. All costs and expenses incurred in connection with any such arbitration
proceeding (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) shall be borne by the Party incurring such costs.
The use of any alternative dispute resolution procedures hereunder will not be construed under the
doctrines of laches, waiver or estoppel to affect adversely the rights of either Party.
28.4 Non-Exclusive Remedy. Each of the Parties acknowledges and agrees that money damages
would not be a sufficient remedy for any breach of this Lease by either Party. Accordingly,
nothing in this Section 28 will prevent either Party from immediately seeking injunctive or interim
relief in the event of any actual or threatened breach of any confidentiality provisions of this
Lease. All actions for such injunctive or interim relief shall be brought in a court of competent
jurisdiction. Such remedy shall not be deemed to be the exclusive remedy for breach of this Lease.
28.5 Commencement of Dispute Resolution Procedure. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
in this Lease, the Parties, but none of their respective Subsidiaries, are entitled to commence a
dispute resolution procedure under this Lease, whether pursuant to this Section 28 or otherwise,
and each Party will cause its respective subsidiaries not to commence any dispute resolution
procedure other than through such Party as provided in this Section 28.
29. Notices. All notices, demands or requests which may be given by either party to the
other party shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given on the date delivered
in person, or sent via telefax or electronic transmission (provided that in any such case, such
telefax or electronic transmission is immediately thereafter confirmed by telephone), or on the
next business day if sent by overnight courier, and in each case addressed as set forth below:
