2.4 Application of Resources. Unless otherwise expressly required under the terms of any relevant Schedule or the Separation Agreement, or otherwise agreed to by the Parties in writing, in providing the Services, Service Provider or its Affiliates shall not be obligated to: (i) expend funds and other resources beyond levels that would be customary and reasonable for any other nationally recognized service provider to perform services that are similar to the relevant Services; (ii) maintain the employment of any specific employee or subcontractor; (iii) purchase, lease or license any additional (measured as of the date hereof) equipment or materials (expressly excluding any renewal or extension of any leases or licenses required for Service Provider to

Within forty-five (45) days of the Distribution Date, if a Party identifies a service that the other Party (or a member of such other Party’s Group) previously provided to such first Party (or any of its Subsidiaries) prior to the Distribution Date, but such service was inadvertently omitted from inclusion in the Services to be received by such first Party under this Agreement (an “Omitted Service”), then, upon the prior written consent of the Party that would be Service Provider of such Omitted Service (which consent shall not be unreasonably conditioned, withheld or delayed), such Omitted Service shall be added and considered as part of the Services to be provided by such Service Provider. The Parties shall cooperate and act in good faith to reach agreement on the fees and other specific terms and conditions applicable to such Omitted Service, provided that if such Omitted Service is substantially similar to any other Service provided by Services Provider under this Agreement, such fees and other specific terms and conditions shall be substantially similar to the fees and other specific terms and conditions applicable to such other Services. Upon the Parties’ agreement on the fees and other specific terms and conditions applicable to an Omitted Service, the Parties shall execute an amendment to this Agreement that provides for the substitution of the relevant Schedule, or additions of supplements to the relevant Schedule, in order to describe such

Omitted Service and the agreement upon the related fees and other specific terms and conditions applicable thereto.

(b) Additional Services; Extension of Services Terms. In the event that the Parties identify and agree upon (i) an additional service to be provided under this Agreement (other than an Omitted Service), as well as the related fees and other specific terms and conditions applicable thereto (an “Additional Service”), or (ii) an extension of any particular Service Term for any Services Group, as well as the related fees and other specific terms and conditions applicable thereto, the Parties shall execute an amendment to this Agreement that provides for the substitution of the relevant Schedule, or additions of supplements to the relevant Schedule, in order to describe such Additional Service or extension, and the agreed upon related fees and other specific terms and conditions applicable thereto.

2.8 Impracticability. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.10, Service Provider shall not be required to provide any Service to the extent: (A) that the performance of the Services would (i) require Service Provider or any of its Affiliates to violate any applicable Laws (including any applicable codes or standards of conduct established any Governmental Entity with respect to their activities subject to the jurisdiction of such Governmental Entity) or any internal policy reasonably adopted in order to comply with any applicable Laws; (ii) result in the breach of any software license, lease, or other Contract; or (iii) require prior approval of a Governmental Entity (except to the extent such approval has already been obtained); or (B) provided under Section 15.20.

CPEX shall designate to Bentley at least one individual to whom all of Bentley’s communications may be addressed with respect to the CPEX Services and who has authority to act for and bind CPEX in all aspects with respect to the CPEX Services (the “CPEX Project Manager”). The initial Bentley Project Manager designated by Bentley shall be Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxx and the initial CPEX Project Manager designated by CPEX shall be Xxxxxx Xxxxxx.

2.10 Cooperation. In the event that there is nonperformance of any Service as a result of (i) a Force Majeure event described in Section 15.19, or (ii) impracticability pursuant to Section 2.8, the Parties agree to work together in good faith to arrange for an alternative means by which the applicable Service Recipient may obtain, at its sole cost and expense, the Service so affected. The Parties and the members of their respective Groups shall cooperate with each other in connection with the performance of the Services, including producing on a timely basis all Contracts, documents and other information that is reasonably requested with respect to the performance of Services; provided, however, that such cooperation shall not unreasonably disrupt the normal operations of the Parties and the members of their respective Groups; and provided, further, however the Party requesting cooperation shall pay all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Party or any members of its Group furnishing such

requested cooperation, unless otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement or the Separation Agreement.

3.2 Payment Procedures. If Fees are payable pursuant to Section 3.1 (b):

(a) Service Provider shall invoice Service Recipient on a monthly basis for all Fees accrued with respect to the prior month. Fees shall be payable by Service Recipient within thirty (30) days after Service Recipient’s receipt of an invoice (the “Due Date”). All amounts (i) payable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall be paid to Service Provider as directed by Service Provider, and (ii) due and payable hereunder shall be invoiced and paid in U.S. dollars, except as may be expressly provided in any relevant Schedule. A Service Recipient’s obligation to make any required payments under this Agreement shall not be subject to any unilateral right of offset, set-off, deduction or counterclaim, however arising. If any payment is not paid when due, the Service Provider shall have the right, without any liability to the Service Recipient, or anyone claiming by or through the Service Recipient, upon thirty (30) days’ notice, to cease providing such Services for which payment was not received, which right may be exercised by the Service Provider in its sole and absolute discretion.

(b) Interest. Subject to the provisions of Section 3.2, amounts not paid on or before the Due Date shall be payable with interest, accrued at LIBOR plus 50 basis points (the “Default Interest Rate”) (or the maximum legal rate whichever is lower), calculated for the actual number of days elapsed, accrued from the Due Date until the date of the actual receipt of payment.

In the event that Service Recipient disputes the accuracy of any invoice or portion thereof, Service Recipient shall provide Service Provider on or prior to the Due Date written notice of the disputed amounts, together with a statement of the particulars of the dispute, including the calculations with respect to any errors or inaccuracies claimed.

15.15 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal Laws, and not the Laws governing conflicts of Laws, of the State of Delaware.

15.16 Consent to Jurisdiction. Subject to the provisions of Section 12, each of the Parties irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the District of Delaware (the “Delaware Court”), for the purposes of any suit, action or other proceeding to compel arbitration or for provisional relief in aid of arbitration in accordance with Section 12 or for provisional relief to prevent irreparable harm, and to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the Delaware Court for the enforcement of any award issued thereunder. Each of the Parties further agrees that service of any process, summons, notice or document by United States registered mail to such Party’s respective address set forth in Section 15.5 shall be effective service of process for any action, suit or proceeding in the Delaware Court with respect to any matters to which it has submitted to jurisdiction in this Section 15.16. Each of the Parties irrevocably and unconditionally waives any objection to the laying of venue of any action, suit or proceeding arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby in the Delaware Court, and hereby further irrevocably and unconditionally waives and agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that any such action, suit or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

15.17 Waiver of Jury Trial. SUBJECT TO SECTIONS 12 AND 15.16 HEREIN, EACH OF THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY COURT PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF AND PERMITTED UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT. EACH OF THE PARTIES HEREBY (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE TRANSACTIONS

CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT, AS APPLICABLE, BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 15.17.

15.18 Severability. In the event any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby, and the Parties shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions, the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions.

15.19 Force Majeure. The Service Provider (or any Person acting on its behalf) shall not have any liability or responsibility to the Service Recipient for any interruption of Services or delay or failure to perform under this Agreement so long as and to the extent to which the interruption, delay or failure to perform results from Force Majeure. In such event, the obligations hereunder of the Service Provider in providing any Service, and the obligation of the Service Recipient to pay for any such Service, shall be postponed for such time as its performance is suspended or delayed on account thereof. A Party claiming the benefit of this provision shall, as soon as reasonably practicable after the occurrence of any such event: (a) notify the other Party of the nature and extent of any such Force Majeure condition, and (b) use due diligence to remove any such causes and resume performance under this Agreement as soon as reasonably practicable.
