draft of the Customer Premises Cash Accounting. The Buyer and the Seller shall cooperate in good faith to resolve any
such dispute as promptly as possible, and upon such resolution, the Customer Premises Cash
15
Accounting shall be prepared in accordance with the agreement of the Buyer and the Seller. During any period of
dispute, the parties shall have reasonable access to the books and records, customers, working papers of the other
party and such other party’s respective accountants and representatives relating to such other party’s calculation of
the Customer Premises Cash Accounting. In the event the Seller does not notify the Buyer of any such dispute within

Customer Premises Cash Accounting delivered pursuant to Section 2.7(b) shall be final and binding upon the
parties. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the parties agree that if there is a failure to comply with
the terms of this Section 2.7 by a party, the other party will have a remedy in law and equity including
seeking appropriate injunctive relief or specific performance as may be granted by a court of competent jurisdiction
without the necessity of posting a bond.
(e) In the event the Buyer and the Seller are unable to resolve any dispute regarding the Customer Premises Cash
Accounting delivered pursuant to Section 2.7(c) within ten (10) Business Days following the Buyer’s receipt of

continued employment with Certegy Gaming Services, Inc, effective upon the Closing. Such offers of employment shall be
subject to Buyer’s standard new-hire policies and procedures, including background checks and confirmation of
authorization to work in the United States. Seller and each of the Certegy Gaming Companies shall cooperate with Buyer
and its Subsidiaries in presenting such offers of employment. Each such employee who accepts Buyer’s (or its

5.8(a) to be transferred from the employing Affiliate of Seller to Certegy Gaming Services, Inc., together with the

Affiliate of Seller to be terminated effective immediately prior to Closing. Buyer agrees to reimburse Seller for the
cost of (A) providing severance payments to each employee that is not a Transferred Employee and whose employment is
terminated by the foregoing employing Affiliate of Seller, in the amounts itemized in Schedule 5.8(b)(ii)(A)
(the “Terminated Employee Severance Payment”); and (B) paying accrued but unpaid commissions to each sales
employee that is not a Transferred Employee, in the amounts itemized in Schedule 5.8(b)(ii)(B) (the

of the employees from employment with the Certegy Gaming Companies occurring on or prior to the Closing Date, whether
or not in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby.
(c) Buyer agrees that, from the Closing Date until December 31, 2008, it shall, or it shall cause one or more of

level of base salary that was provided to each such Employee immediately prior to the Closing Date, and (ii) provide
the Transferred Employees with employee benefits and incentive compensation opportunities that are no less favorable in
the aggregate than those provided to similarly situated employees of Buyer and its Subsidiaries. Each of the
Transferred Employees will be provided the opportunity to participate in employee benefits plans, programs and
arrangements (including, without limitation, equity compensation and retirement plans) maintained by Buyer and
available in general to similarly-situated employees of Buyer and its Subsidiaries. Nothing herein shall be deemed to
be a guarantee of employment for any Transferred Employee, or to restrict the right of Buyer or Buyer’s Subsidiaries to
terminate any Transferred Employee. Further, nothing herein shall restrict the right of Buyer or any of its
Subsidiaries to amend any benefit plans in accordance with the terms and conditions of such benefit plans.
(d) Seller shall use its commercially reasonable best efforts to provide the services of the employees who are not
Transferred Employees identified in writing by Buyer prior to Closing (the “Transition Service Employees”) to
Buyer pursuant to the Transition Services Agreement. Seller shall reasonably cooperate with Buyer in identifying employees of the Certegy Gaming
Companies who would be appropriate Transition Service Employees. Buyer and Seller shall use commercially reasonable
best efforts in negotiating appropriate retention and severance arrangements with the Transition Service Employees,
which retention and severance arrangements shall be at the expense of Buyer.
42
(e) Effective as of the Closing Date, all Transferred Employees of the Certegy Gaming Companies shall cease active
participation in all Company Employee Plans unless otherwise provided for in such plans. Any rights or benefits to
which any current or former employee of a Certegy Gaming Company (including any Transferred Employee) is entitled as of
the Closing shall be determined in accordance with the terms and conditions of the applicable Company Employee Plan and
applicable Law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, through and including March 31, 2008, Seller will continue to provide
medical, dental, and vision insurance coverage for all Transferred Employees on substantially the same terms and
conditions as are in effect as of the date of this Agreement under the relevant Company Employee Plans. Buyer will
reimburse Seller for the company portion of the health insurance premiums or other costs for the Transferred Employees
attributable to the time period beginning on the Closing Date and continuing until the last day of the calendar month
in which the Closing occurs. Such reimbursement payment shall be made by Buyer to Seller within ten (10) days after
Buyer is invoiced by Seller.
(f) Transferred Employees shall receive credit for all service with Seller or any of its Subsidiaries (including
the Certegy Gaming Companies) or any of their predecessors, for purposes of eligibility to participate and vesting
under any employee benefit plan, program or arrangement established or maintained by Buyer, the Certegy Gaming
Companies, or any of their respective Subsidiaries (collectively, the “Buyer Benefit Plans”) under which each
Transferred Employee may be eligible to participate on or after the Closing Date to the same extent recognized by the
Seller or any of its Subsidiaries (including the Certegy Gaming Companies) under comparable Company Employee Plans
immediately prior to the Closing Date; provided, however, that such crediting of service shall not
operate to duplicate any benefit or the funding of any such benefit.
(g) With respect to the welfare benefit plans, programs and arrangements maintained, sponsored or contributed to
by Buyer or its Subsidiaries (including the Certegy Gaming Companies) (“Buyer Welfare Plans”) in which a
Transferred Employee may be eligible to participate on or after the Closing Date, subject to the consent of any
applicable insurance carrier (the consent and waiver of which shall be sought by Buyer), Buyer shall or shall cause its
Subsidiaries to (i) waive, or cause its insurance carrier to waive, all limitations as to preexisting and at-work
conditions, if any, with respect to participation and coverage requirements applicable to each Transferred Employee
under any Buyer Welfare Plan, and (ii) provide credit to each Transferred Employee for any co-payments, deductibles and
out-of-pocket expenses paid by such Transferred Employee under the Company Employee Plans during the relevant plan
year, up to and including the Closing Date.
(h) Buyer shall be liable for all workers compensation claims of the Transferred Employees relating to
occupational illnesses and injuries that are incurred on or after the commencement of such employee’s employment
following the Closing Date, and Seller shall remain liable for all workers’ compensation claims of the Transition Employees relating to occupational illnesses
and injuries that are incurred on or before the Closing Date.
43
(i) Seller will be responsible for all benefits accrued and claims incurred under the Company Benefit Plans prior
to the Closing Date, subject in all events to the terms of the Company Benefit Plans and, except insofar as Buyer is
obligated to reimburse Seller for the costs, expenses and claims incurred under any Company Benefit Plan as set forth
in this Agreement or in the Transition Services Agreement. The Company is not assuming and shall not be liable or
responsible for any liabilities or obligations under any Company Employee Plan arising on or prior to the Closing Date,
and the Seller shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the Company and the Buyer from and against any such
liabilities or obligations.
(j) Without limiting in any way the provisions set forth in Section 11.3 of this Agreement, for a period
of fifteen (15) days following Closing, Buyer agrees that if it should terminate any Transferred Employees, Buyer shall
provide each employee subject to such termination a severance payment equal to the greater of 0.5 times their current
monthly salary or the commensurate amount possible under Buyer’s severance plans. Such severance shall be conditioned
upon the employee’s execution of a release of claims.
5.9 Further Assurances.
(a) From and after the Closing Date, the Seller, at no cost, shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, from time
to time, execute and deliver such additional instruments, documents, conveyances or assurances and take such other
actions as shall be necessary, or otherwise reasonably requested by Buyer, to fully vest the Shares in the Buyer and to
confirm and assure the rights and obligations provided for in this Agreement and render effective the consummation of
the Contemplated Transactions; and
(b) From and after the Closing, the Buyer, at no cost, shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, from time to
time, execute and deliver such additional instruments, documents, conveyances or assurances and take such other actions
as shall be necessary, or otherwise reasonably requested by the Seller, to confirm and assure the rights and
obligations provided for in this Agreement and render effective the consummation of the Contemplated Transactions.
(c) At Closing, Seller shall cause the Certegy Gaming Companies to be released at the Closing from all guarantees,
support, indemnification, assumption or endorsement of, or any similar commitment with respect to, the obligations or
liabilities of Seller and its Affiliates and any agreement which the Certegy Gaming Companies are borrowers with
Seller, including without limitation that certain Credit Agreement dated as of January 18, 2007, as amended, between XX
Xxxxxx Xxxxx Bank, N.A., as collateral agent, and Seller and certain of its Affiliates (the “Credit
Agreement”).
5.10 Continuing Indemnification. For a period of three (3) years after the Closing Date, Buyer agrees
that all rights to indemnification for acts or omissions occurring prior to the Closing Date in favor of the former and
present directors and officers of the Company and its Subsidiaries as provided in the Company’s articles of
incorporation and bylaws (and correlative provisions in the Organizational Documents of the Certegy Gaming Companies), shall survive the Contemplated
Transactions and shall continue in full force and effect.

ARTICLE VI
TAX MATTERS
6.1 Section 338(h)(10) Election.
(a) If Buyer so notifies Seller at or within one hundred twenty (120) days after the Closing, the Buyer and the
Seller shall jointly make an election under Section 338(h)(10) of the Code (and any comparable election under state or
local Law) (the “338(h)(10) Elections”) with respect to the acquisition of the Company and its U.S.
Subsidiaries by the Buyer. The Buyer and the Seller shall cooperate fully with each other in the making of the
338(h)(10) Elections. The Buyer shall be responsible for the preparation and filing of all Tax Returns and forms (the
“Section 338 Forms”) required under applicable law to be filed in connection with making the 338(h)(10)
Elections. The Seller shall deliver to the Buyer within a reasonable time prior to the date the Section 338 Forms are
required to be filed, such documents and other forms as are reasonably required by the Buyer to properly complete the
Section 338 Forms. The Buyer shall prepare a complete set of Section 338 Forms and any additional data or materials
required to be attached to IRS Form 8023 for the Seller’s review and approval, provided that the Seller shall not
unreasonably withhold such approval.
(b) If the 338(h)(10) Elections are made, the Buyer and the Seller shall allocate the Purchase Price and any other
amounts required by the Code or Treasury Regulations to be allocated in the manner required by Section 338 of the Code
and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder. Such allocation shall be used for purposes of determining the
aggregate deemed sales price under the applicable Treasury Regulations and in reporting the deemed sale of assets of
the Company in connection with the 338(h)(10) Elections.
6.2 Transfer Taxes. At the Closing or, if due thereafter, promptly when due, all transfer taxes, real property
transfer taxes, sales taxes, use taxes, excise taxes, stamp taxes, conveyance taxes and any other similar Taxes
applicable to, arising out of or imposed upon the Contemplated Transactions shall be split equally and paid by the
Buyer and the Seller, except that any such Taxes resulting from any 338(h)(10) Election shall be paid by the Seller.
The Seller and the Buyer shall cooperate in the preparation and filing of any returns relating to such Taxes.
6.3 Proration of Certain Company Taxes. All real property, personal property and similar ad valorem Taxes
payable by the Certegy Gaming Companies attributable to the Certegy Gaming Companies’ assets at Closing, for the fiscal
year during which the Closing occurs shall be allocated proportionately to the portion of such fiscal year or other
period ending on the Closing Date and the portion of such year or other period beginning after the Closing Date by
allocating such Taxes on a per diem basis for the entire taxable period to which such Taxes relate. Except as
otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, any such Taxes allocated to the pre-Closing period shall be included on
the Final Working Capital Schedule as a liability to the extent such Taxes remain unpaid as of the Closing Date, and to
the extent so included the Company shall pay the same when and as due. Any such Taxes allocated to the post-Closing
period shall be
45
included in the Company’s current assets on the Final Working Capital Schedule to the extent such Taxes have been paid
by the Company on or before the Closing Date. No such Taxes allocated to the post-Closing period shall be included on
the Final Working Capital Schedule as a liability. If the amount of such Taxes for the taxable period including the
Closing Date has not been fully determined by the Closing Date, then when the amount is finally determined, the parties
shall reimburse each other to the extent necessary so that, taking into account related inclusions on the Final Working
Capital Schedule, the Buyer only pays those Taxes which are attributable to the taxable period beginning after the
Closing Date on a per diem basis. In no event shall the Buyer bear any responsibility for any real property,
personal property and similar ad valorem Taxes payable by the Certegy Gaming Companies that are attributable to assets
that are not held by the Certegy Gaming Companies at Closing.
6.4 Tax Returns and Reports. The Seller shall prepare or cause to be prepared, and the Seller and the Buyer
shall cause the Company to timely file, all Tax Returns for the Certegy Gaming Companies for Tax periods ending on or
prior to the Closing Date which are to be filed prior to, on or after the Closing Date. All such returns shall be
prepared in a manner consistent with past practice and that neither accelerates deductions nor defers income, except to
the extent otherwise required by Law. The Seller shall permit the Buyer to review and comment on each such Tax Return
prior to filing and shall make such revisions to such Tax Returns as are reasonably requested by the Buyer. The Seller
shall pay all Taxes required to be paid in connection with such Tax Returns, including any deferred income from
intercompany transactions triggered into income by Section 1.1502-13 of the Treasury Regulations and any excess loss
accounts taken into income under Section 1.1502-19 of the Treasury Regulations triggered by reason of the departure of
the Certegy Gaming Companies from the Seller Group. The Buyer shall prepare or cause to be prepared and timely file or
cause to be timely filed all Tax Returns for the Certegy Gaming Companies for Tax periods beginning prior to the
Closing Date and ending after the Closing Date. All such returns shall be prepared in a manner consistent with past
practice, except to the extent otherwise required by Law. The Buyer shall permit the Seller to review and comment on
each such Tax Return prior to filing and shall make such revisions to such Tax Returns as are reasonably requested by
the Seller. The Buyer shall pay all Taxes required to be paid in connection with such Tax Returns, subject to Buyer’s
right to indemnification pursuant to Article X. Unless otherwise mandated by Law, neither the Buyer nor any of its
Affiliates or any successor thereto will file any amended Tax Return with respect to any Tax period ending on or prior
to the Closing Date without Seller’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or
conditioned.
6.5 Tax Sharing Agreements. All Tax sharing agreements or similar agreements with respect to or involving the
Company shall be terminated as of the Closing Date and, from and after the Closing Date, neither the Seller nor any of
the Certegy Gaming Companies shall be obligated to make any payment to any Person pursuant to any such agreement or
arrangement, and all other rights and obligations resulting from any such agreement or arrangement shall cease.
46
6.6 Allocation of Certain Taxes.
(a) If the Certegy Gaming Companies are permitted but not required under applicable state, local, or foreign
income Tax Laws to treat the Closing Date as the last day of a taxable period, then the parties shall treat that day as
the last day of a taxable period.
(b) In the case of Taxes arising in a taxable period of the any of the Certegy Gaming Companies that includes, but
does not end on, the Closing Date, except as provided in Section 6.3, the allocation of such Taxes between the
Pre-Closing Tax Period and the Post-Closing Tax Period shall be made on the basis of an interim closing of the books as
of the end of the Closing Date. If a taxable period begins on or prior to the Closing Date and ends after the Closing
Date, then the portion of the taxable period that begins on the day following the Closing Date shall constitute a
Post-Closing Tax Period. For the avoidance of doubt, for purposes of this Agreement, any Taxes resulting from (i) any
338(h)(10) Election, (ii) the Contemplated Transactions (including the transactions described on Schedule 5.1),
and (iii) the departure of any of the Certegy Gaming Companies from the Seller Group (resulting from the triggering
into income of items from deferred intercompany transactions under Section 1.1502-13 of the Treasury Regulations or
excess loss accounts under Section 1.1502-19 of the Treasury Regulations or otherwise) are attributable to the
Pre-Closing Tax Period.
6.7 Cooperation. The Seller and the Buyer shall cooperate, and shall cause their respective Affiliates and
representatives to cooperate, fully with the Company and each other in connection with the preparation and filing of
any Tax Return, amended Tax Return or claim for refund, determining liability for Taxes or a right to refund of Taxes,
or in conducting any audit, litigation or other proceeding with respect to Taxes. Such cooperation and information
shall include providing copies of all relevant portions of relevant Tax Returns, together with relevant accompanying
schedules and relevant work papers, relevant documents relating to rulings and other determinations by Taxing
Authorities, and relevant records concerning the ownership and Tax basis of property, which any such party may possess.
Each party will retain all books and records and all Tax information relating to periods of the Certegy Gaming
Companies ending on or before or including the Closing Date until the later of the expiration of the statutes of
limitations (as such statutes may be extended) with respect to Taxes for such periods and the conclusion of all
litigation with respect to such Taxes, and shall provide each other, as reasonably requested, access to personnel and
such books and records and information to the employees, agents and representatives of the requesting party. The Buyer
and the Seller further agree, upon request, to use their commercially reasonable best efforts to obtain any certificate
or other document from any Governmental Authority or any other Person as may be necessary to mitigate, reduce or
eliminate any Tax that could be imposed with respect to the Business or the Contemplated Transactions.
6.8 Tax Contests.
(a) The Buyer shall promptly notify the Seller in writing within fifteen (15) days from its receipt of written
notice of any pending or threatened assessment or claim in any audit, litigation or other proceeding in respect of any
of the Certegy Gaming Companies related to Taxes for which the Seller may be liable under this Agreement. Such notice
shall be accompanied by copies of any notice or other documents it has received from any Governmental Authority. If the Buyer fails to promptly notify the Seller in accordance with this Section 6.8(a),
Seller shall not be relieved of any of its obligations to indemnify under Article X except and to the extent that
Seller is prejudiced as a result of such failure.
47
(b) The Seller shall, upon prompt notice to the Buyer and at the Seller’s own expense, have the right to represent
the interests of any of the Certegy Gaming Companies in any audit, litigation or other proceeding (collectively,
“Tax Contest”) relating exclusively to Taxes for which the Seller may be liable under this Agreement, to employ
counsel of its choice at its expense and to control the conduct of such Tax Contest, including settlement or other
disposition thereof, provided, however, that Buyer shall have the right to participate in any such Tax Contest that
may adversely affect any of the Certegy Gaming Companies for any periods ending after the Closing Date at Buyer’s own
expense; and provided, further, that any settlement or other disposition of any such Tax Contest may only be made with
the consent of the Buyer, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.
(c) Any Tax Contest with respect to Taxes for a period which includes but does not end on the Closing Date shall
be controlled jointly by the Seller and the Buyer, and neither shall consent to the settlement or other disposition of
such a Tax Contest without the prior written consent of the other, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
Notwithstanding any provision of this Section 6.8 to the contrary, the Seller shall not have the right to control any
Tax Contest, to initiate any claim for refund, to file any amended return or to take any other action if, as a result
of such Tax Contest, claim for refund, amended return or other action, the Taxes payable by the Buyer or any Certegy
Gaming Company for a taxable period for which the Seller is not obligated to indemnify the Buyer or any Certegy Gaming
Company pursuant to Article X would be likely to be materially increased.
6.9 Certain Post-Closing Settlement Payments and Post-Closing Actions. If any of the Certegy Gaming Companies
receives any refund of Tax which relates to Taxes paid or accrued by any of the Certegy Gaming Companies with respect
to a taxable period ending before or including the Closing Date which was not taken into account as an asset in
determining Net Working Capital, the Buyer shall transfer, or cause to be transferred, to the Seller within fifteen
(15) days of receipt the entire amount of the refund, net of any Tax payable by the Buyer with respect thereto,
received by the Buyer. If the Seller receives any refund of Tax which relates to Taxes paid by the Buyer or any of its
Subsidiaries with respect to a taxable period, or portion thereof, beginning after the Closing Date, or which was taken
into account as an asset in determining Net Working Capital, the Seller shall transfer, or cause to be transferred, to
the Buyer within fifteen (15) days of receipt the entire amount of the refund, net of any Tax payable by the Seller
with respect thereto, received by the Seller.
6.10 Tax Treatment of Indemnification Payments. Except as otherwise required by applicable Law, the parties
shall treat any indemnification payment made hereunder as an adjustment to Purchase Price.

(b) Any breach or violation of any covenant, obligation or agreement by the Buyer contained in this Agreement
determined and existing as of the Closing Date;
(c) Except as provided in Section 10.2(c), all Taxes imposed on or relating to any of the Certegy Gaming
Companies for any Post-Closing Tax Period; and
(d) Any Liabilities of the Certegy Gaming Companies not otherwise satisfied prior to Closing.
10.5 Indemnification Procedure.
(a) In the event that any Person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall sustain or incur any Damages in
respect of which indemnification may be sought by such Person pursuant to this Article X (other than
indemnification in respect of Taxes, contests relating to which shall be governed by Section 6.8), the Person
seeking such indemnification (the “Indemnitee”) shall assert a claim for indemnification (“Indemnification
Claim”) by giving prompt written notice thereof (the “Notice”) to the party (i.e., the Seller or the Buyer)
providing indemnification (the “Indemnitor”) and shall thereafter keep the Indemnitor reasonably informed with
respect thereto; provided that failure of the Indemnitee to give the Indemnitor prompt notice as provided
herein shall not relieve the Indemnitor of any of its obligations hereunder except and to the extent that the
Indemnitor is prejudiced as a result of such failure. In the case of an Indemnification Claim by an Indemnified Buyer
Party, such Person shall also provide a copy of the Notice to the Escrow Agent. The Notice shall set forth with
reasonable particularity the basis for the Indemnification Claim and, if estimable, the Indemnitee’s good faith
estimate of Damages as the case may be resulting from such Indemnification Claim. Any dispute relating to an
Indemnification Claim shall be resolved by (i) the mutual agreement of the Indemnitor and the Indemnitee, (ii) binding
arbitration, if arbitration is agreed to in writing by the Indemnitor and the Indemnitee, or (iii) a final order,
decree or judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction (the time for appeal having expired and no appeal having been
perfected). No Indemnitee may settle or compromise any claim or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to
which indemnification is being sought hereunder without the prior written consent of the Indemnitor (which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), unless (i) the Indemnitor fails to assume and maintain the
defense of such claim pursuant to this Section 10.5(a) and (ii) such settlement, compromise or consent includes
an unconditional release of the Indemnitor and its officers, directors, employees and Affiliates from all liability
arising out of such claim. An Indemnitor may not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnitee, settle or
compromise any claim or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to which indemnification is being sought
hereunder unless (A) such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of the Indemnitee and its
officers, directors, employees and Affiliates from all liability arising out of such claim, (B) does not contain any
admission or statement suggesting any wrongdoing or liability on behalf of the Indemnitee, (C) does not involve a
Governmental Authority, and (D) does not contain any equitable order, judgment or term that in any manner affects,
restrains or interferes with the business of the Indemnitee or any of the Indemnitee’s Affiliates.
(b) In case any claim, action or proceeding is brought against any Indemnitee or in respect of any Special
Indemnity Matter (a “Third Party Claim”), the Indemnitor shall be entitled to assume the defense thereof, by written notice to the Indemnitee of its intention to do so within
thirty (30) days after receipt of the Notice, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnitee, at the
Indemnitor’s own expense. Notwithstanding the assumption by the Indemnitor of the defense of any Third Party Claim as
provided in this Section 10.5(b), the Indemnitee shall be permitted to join in the defense of such Claim and to
employ counsel at its own expense.
54
(c) If the Indemnitor fails to notify the Indemnitee of its desire to assume the defense of any such Third Party
Claim within the prescribed period of time, or shall notify the Indemnitee that it will not assume the defense of any
such Third Party Claim, then the Indemnitee may assume the defense of any such Third Party Claim, in which event it may
do so in such manner as it may reasonably deem appropriate, provided that (i) the Indemnitee may not settle the Third
Party Claim without the Indemnitor’s consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or
conditioned), and (ii) the Indemnitor may participate in such defense at its own expense.
(d) Amounts payable by the Indemnitor to the Indemnitee in respect of any Damages for which such party is entitled
to indemnification hereunder shall be payable by the Indemnitor as incurred by the Indemnitee, except to the extent
that the claim for indemnification is disputed. The Indemnitor and the Indemnitee shall provide reasonable cooperation
and assistance, and shall cause their Affiliates to provide reasonable cooperation and assistance, to the other and its
counsel in connection with the defense or settlement of any Third Party Claim. Any expenses incurred by the Indemnitee
or its Affiliates in providing such cooperation and assistance at the Indemnitor’s request shall be paid by the
Indemnitor to the extent such expenses constitute Damages that the Indemnitor is required to indemnify against under
this Article X.
(e) The Buyer and the Seller shall cooperate with one another with respect to resolving any claim or liability
with respect to which any party is obligated to indemnify another party hereunder.
(f) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, without the written consent of the Buyer, the Seller shall
not be entitled to assume the defense of, but may participate in the defense of, any matter (each, a “Prohibited
Action”) to the extent that: (i) the matter seeks, in addition to or in lieu of monetary damages, any injunctive
or other equitable relief against the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; or (ii) the matter relates to or arises in
connection with any criminal proceeding, action, indictment, allegation, or investigation; provided,
however, that in no event shall Buyer settle any Prohibited Action unless Seller has consented thereto in
writing (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned); and further
provided that in no event shall any Special Indemnity Matter be or be deemed to be a Prohibited Action
for any purposes hereunder.
10.6 Limitations on Indemnification.
(a) Dollar Limitations. Notwithstanding anything contained in Section 10.2 or Section
10.3 to the contrary, the Seller shall be required to indemnify and hold harmless an Indemnified Buyer Party for
breaches of representations and warranties only if the aggregate amount of such Damages suffered or incurred by the
Indemnified Buyer Party for all such matters exceeds One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) (the “Threshold Amount”), but in the event that
such amount is exceeded, such Indemnified Buyer Party, shall be entitled to indemnification with respect to all Damages
incurred regardless of the Threshold Amount up to the Cap set forth below; provided, however, that the
limitation in this Section 10.6(a) shall not apply to breaches of representations and warranties with respect
to Taxes, any Damages referred to in clauses (i)-(v) in Section 10.6(b), any Working Capital Deficit, or any
Customer Premises Cash Deficit.
55
(b) Cap on Indemnification. Seller shall not be required to indemnify and hold harmless an Indemnified
Buyer Party for breaches of representations and warranties for any Damages in excess of ten percent (10%) of the
Purchase Price in the aggregate (the “Cap”); provided, however, that nothing herein shall limit
in any way any equitable remedies otherwise available to Buyer; and provided, further, that (i) any Damages arising or
resulting form or in connection with the breach of any of the Fundamental Representations; (ii) any Damages arising or
resulting from or in connection with any Special Indemnity Matter; (iii) any Damages arising or resulting from or in
connection with any indemnification obligation arising out of or resulting from actual fraud, willful misconduct, or
criminal misconduct by that party or its representative; (iv) any Damages arising from Seller’s failure to release the
Certegy Gaming Companies from obligations set forth in Section 5.9(c); and (v) any Damages for which the Buyer
Indemnified Parties are entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 10.3(b)(i) of this Agreement.
(c) Source of Indemnity. Other than as set forth in the further provisions of this Section
10.6(c), the Indemnified Buyer Parties shall be limited to recovery from the Escrow Amount. Notwithstanding the
foregoing and Section 10.6(b), Buyer shall be entitled to seek recovery from Seller for (i) any Damages arising
or resulting from or in connection with the breach of any of the Fundamental Representations; (ii) any Damages arising
or resulting from or in connection with any Special Indemnity Matter; (iii) any Damages arising or resulting from or in
connection with any indemnification obligation arising out of or resulting from actual fraud, willful misconduct, or
criminal misconduct by that party or its representative; (iv) any Working Capital Deficit; (v) any Customer Premises
Cash Deficit, and shall not be limited to recovery in respect thereof solely from the Escrow Amount. Nothing in this
Article X is intended to or shall limit Seller’s liability for any breach of its obligations under the Non-Competition
Agreement or the Transition Services Agreement or (vi) any Damages for which the Buyer Indemnified Parties are entitled
to indemnification pursuant to Section 10.3(b)(i) of this Agreement.
10.7 Calculation of Damages. The amount of any Damages shall be reduced by any insurance proceeds with respect
to such Damages. Except to the extent included in Damages asserted by third Persons in Third Party Claims, Damages
payable by an Indemnitor shall not include consequential, incidental, special, punitive damages, damages related to
mental or emotional distress, exemplary damages, special damages, lost profits, diminution in value or other indirect
damages.
10.8 Exclusive Remedy. After the Closing, the indemnities provided for herein shall constitute the sole and
exclusive remedy of any Indemnitee for damages arising out of, resulting from or incurred in connection with any claims
related to this Agreement or arising out of the Contemplated Transactions; provided, however, that this exclusive
remedy for damages does not
preclude a party from bringing an action for specific performance or other equitable remedy to require a party to
perform its obligations under this Agreement.
56
10.9 No Right of Contribution. The Seller acknowledges and agrees that, upon and after the Closing, none of
the Certegy Gaming Companies shall have any liability or obligation to indemnify, save or hold harmless or otherwise
pay, reimburse or make whole for or on account of any Buyer Damages, or any untruth, inaccuracy or incorrectness of, or
other breach of, any representation or warranty or the nonfulfillment, nonperformance, nonobservance or other breach or
violation of, or default under, any covenant, agreement or undertaking of the Company, and the Seller shall have no
right of contribution against the Certegy Gaming Companies.

this Agreement shall not survive the Closing of this Agreement, other than claims against a Person for fraud or
intentional misrepresentation of that Person under applicable Law based on breaches of the representations and

11.3 Succession and Assignment; No Third-Party Beneficiary. Subject to the immediately following sentence,
this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and
permitted assigns, each of which such successors and permitted assigns shall be deemed to be a party hereto for all
purposes hereof. No party may assign, delegate or otherwise transfer either this Agreement or any of its rights,

58
11.4 Amendments and Waivers. No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall be valid and
binding unless it is in writing and signed, in the case of an amendment, by each of the parties hereto, or in the case
of a waiver, by the party against whom the waiver is to be effective. No waiver by any party of any breach, violation
or default of or inaccuracy in, any representation, warranty or covenant hereunder, whether intentional or not, shall
be deemed to extend to any prior or subsequent breach, violation, default of, or inaccuracy in, any such
representation, warranty or covenant hereunder or affect in any way any rights arising by virtue of any prior or
subsequent occurrence. No delay or omission on the part of any party in exercising any right, power or remedy under
this Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof.
11.5 Supplemental Disclosures. The Seller and the Buyer shall, from time to time prior to the Closing, by
written notice in accordance with this Agreement, supplement, amend or update the Disclosure Schedules to correct,
supplement or update any matter which constituted upon execution and delivery of this Agreement or would constitute as
of the Closing Date a breach of any representation or warranty contained herein, provided that any such update shall
not be effective for purposes of establishing the satisfaction of the conditions contained in Section 7.1 or
Section 8.1 insofar as such condition relates to the truth and accuracy of the representations and warranties
of the Seller and the Buyer, respectively, as of the date of this Agreement.
11.6 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the Confidentiality Agreement and all other documents,
instruments and certificates explicitly referred to herein, constitutes the entire agreement among the parties hereto
with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes any and all prior discussions, negotiations, proposals,
undertakings, understandings, representations, warranties and agreements, whether written or oral, with respect
thereto.
11.7 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, including by facsimile, each
of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together will constitute but one and the same instrument. This
Agreement shall become effective when duly executed by each party hereto.
11.8 Severability. Any term or provision of this Agreement that is invalid or unenforceable in any situation
in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions hereof or the
validity or enforceability of the offending term or provision in any other situation or in any other jurisdiction. In
the event that any provision hereof would, under applicable law, be invalid or unenforceable in any respect, each party
hereto intends that such provision shall be construed by modifying or limiting it so as to be valid and Enforceable to
the maximum extent compatible with, and possible under, applicable law.
11.9 Headings. The headings contained in this Agreement are for convenience purposes only and shall not in any
way affect the meaning or interpretation hereof.
59
11.10 Governing Law. This Agreement, the rights of the parties and all Actions arising in whole or in part
under or in connection herewith, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the domestic substantive laws of
the State of Delaware, without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule that would cause the
application of the laws of any other jurisdiction.
11.11 Jurisdiction; Venue; Service of Process.
(a) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.6(c), each party to this Agreement, by its execution hereof,
(i) hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts of the State of Delaware
for the purpose of any Action between the parties arising in whole or in part under or in connection with this
Agreement, including any Action pursuant to Section 11.13, (ii) hereby waives to the extent not prohibited by
applicable law, and agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense or otherwise, in any such Action, any claim
that it is not subject personally to the jurisdiction of the above-named courts, that its property is exempt or immune
from attachment or execution, that any such Action brought in one of the above-named courts should be dismissed on
grounds of forum non conveniens, should be transferred or removed to any court other than one of the above-named
courts, or should be stayed by reason of the pendency of some other proceeding in any other court other than one of the
above-named courts, or that this Agreement or the subject matter hereof may not be enforced in or by such court and
(iii) hereby agrees not to commence any such Action other than before one of the above-named courts. Notwithstanding
the previous sentence, a party may commence any Action in a court other than the above-named courts solely for the
purpose of enforcing an order or judgment issued by one of the above-named courts. Each party further waives any
claim, and shall not assert, that venue should properly lie in any other location within the selected jurisdiction.
(b) Each party hereby (i) consents to service of process in any Action between the parties arising in whole or in
part under or in connection with this Agreement in any manner permitted by Delaware Law, (ii) agrees that service of
process made in accordance with clause (i) or made by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, at its
address specified pursuant to Section 11.2, will constitute good and valid service of process in any such
Action and (iii) waives and agrees not to assert (by way of motion, as a defense, or otherwise) in any such Action any
claim that service of process made in accordance with clause (i) or (ii) does not constitute good and valid service of
process.
11.12 Specific Performance. Each of the parties acknowledges and agrees that the other parties would be
damaged irreparably in the event any of the provisions of this Agreement are not performed in accordance with their
specific terms or otherwise are breached or violated. Accordingly, each of the parties agrees that, without posting
bond or other undertaking, the other parties may be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches or
violations of the provisions of this Agreement and to enforce specifically this Agreement and the terms and provisions
hereof in addition to any other remedy to which it may be entitled, at law or in equity. Each party further agrees
that, in the event of any action for specific performance in respect of such breach or violation, it will not assert
that the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate.
60
11.13 Waiver of Jury Trial. TO THE EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW THAT CANNOT BE WAIVED, THE PARTIES
HEREBY WAIVE, AND COVENANT THAT THEY WILL NOT ASSERT (WHETHER AS PLAINTIFF, DEFENDANT OR OTHERWISE), ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL
BY JURY IN ANY ACTION ARISING IN WHOLE OR IN PART UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE CONTEMPLATED
TRANSACTIONS, WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE. THE
PARTIES AGREE THAT ANY OF THEM MAY FILE A COPY OF THIS PARAGRAPH WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE KNOWING,
VOLUNTARY AND BARGAINED-FOR AGREEMENT AMONG THE PARTIES IRREVOCABLY TO WAIVE ITS RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY
PROCEEDING WHATSOEVER BETWEEN THEM RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE CONTEMPLATED TRANSACTIONS AND THAT ANY
PROCEEDING WILL INSTEAD BE TRIED IN A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION BY A JUDGE SITTING WITHOUT A JURY.
