(b) the Parties shall execute and deliver, or cause the execution and delivery of, such bills of sale, quitclaim deeds, stock powers, certificates of title, assignments of contracts and other instruments of transfer, conveyance and assignment and take such other corporate actions as are necessary to transfer to the SpinCo Group all of the right, title and interest to all SpinCo Assets and take all actions necessary to cause the SpinCo Group to assume all of the SpinCo Assumed Liabilities, in each case, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to each Party;

(c) the Parties shall execute and deliver, or cause the execution and delivery of, such bills of sale, quitclaim deeds, stock powers, certificates of title, assignments of contracts and other instruments of transfer, conveyance and assignment and take such other corporate actions as are necessary to transfer to the Cogint Group all of the right, title and interest to all Cogint Assets, in each case, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to each Party;

(d) in the event that at any time or from time to time (whether prior to, at or after the Business Transfer Time), any member of the Cogint Group or the SpinCo Group, respectively, is the owner of, receives or otherwise comes to possess any SpinCo Asset or Cogint Asset, as the case may be, or any SpinCo Assumed Liability that is allocated to a member of the other Group pursuant to this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, the applicable Person shall promptly transfer, or cause to be transferred, such SpinCo Asset, Cogint Asset, or SpinCo Assumed Liability to the Person so entitled thereto or responsible therefor, and such Person shall assume the same, as applicable.

Any Person retaining any SpinCo Asset, SpinCo Assumed Liability, or Cogint Asset due to the deferral of the transfer or assumption (as applicable) of such SpinCo Asset, SpinCo Assumed Liability, or Cogint Asset, as the case may be, shall not be required, in connection with the foregoing, to make any payments, assume any Liability, or offer or grant any accommodation or other benefit (financial or otherwise) to any third party, except to the extent that the Person entitled to the SpinCo Asset or Cogint Asset, or responsible for the SpinCo Assumed Liability, agrees to reimburse and make whole the Person retaining a SpinCo Asset or Cogint Asset, or a SpinCo Assumed Liability, as applicable, to such Person’s reasonable satisfaction, for any payment or other accommodation made by the Person retaining a SpinCo Asset or Cogint Asset, or a SpinCo Assumed Liability, as applicable, at the request of the Person entitled to the SpinCo Asset or Cogint Asset or responsible for the SpinCo Assumed Liability.

No such terminated Intercompany Agreement (including any provision thereof which purports to survive termination) shall be of any further force or effect after the Business Transfer Time and all

parties shall be released from all Liabilities thereunder. Each Party shall, at the reasonable request of any other Party, take, or cause to be taken, such other actions as may be necessary to effect the foregoing. The Parties, on behalf of the members of their respective Groups, hereby waive any advance notice provision or other termination requirements with respect to such Intercompany Agreements.

THE SPIN-OFF

Section 4.1 Consummation of Spin-Off. The Cogint Board, in accordance with applicable Law, shall establish (or designate Persons to establish) the Record Date and the Spin-Off Date, and Cogint shall establish appropriate procedures in connection with, and to effectuate in accordance with applicable Law, the Spin-Off in accordance with the terms hereof. All shares of SpinCo Common Stock held by Cogint on the Spin-Off Date shall be distributed in accordance with Section 4.2 and Section 4.5(b) hereof. After the effectiveness of the Charter Amendment but prior to the Spin-Off, SpinCo shall issue a number of additional shares of SpinCo Common Stock to Cogint as may be required to consummate the Spin-Off as contemplated herein.

Section 4.2 Manner of Spin-Off.

(a) Subject to the terms thereof, in accordance with Section 4.5(b), each Record Holder shall be entitled to receive for each share of Cogint Common Stock held by such Record Holder as of the Record Date a number of shares of SpinCo Common Stock equal to (i) the total number of outstanding shares of SpinCo Common Stock held by Cogint as of the Spin-Off Date, divided by (ii) the sum of (A) the total number of shares of Cogint Common Stock outstanding and held by all Record Holders as of the Record Date (excluding any shares of restricted stock of Cogint which, by their terms, do not participate in such distribution), plus (B) the total number of shares of Cogint Common Stock underlying Company Warrants, Company Restricted Stock

Units, and other Derivative Securities which, by their terms (and in accordance with their terms), are entitled to participate in such distribution as of the Spin-Off, in each case, subject to any adjustment thereof in connection with any stock split or reverse stock split, as applicable (the “Spin-Off Ratio”). Cogint shall not distribute any fractional shares of SpinCo Common Stock to the Record Holders. Instead, the Agent shall aggregate fractional shares into whole shares, sell the whole shares in the open market at prevailing market prices and distribute the aggregate net cash proceeds of the sales pro rata to each holder who otherwise would have been entitled to receive a fractional share in the distribution. Recipients of cash in lieu of fractional shares shall not be entitled to any interest on the amounts of payment made in lieu of fractional shares.

(b) All outstanding equity compensation grants of Cogint Common Stock will be treated for purposes of the Spin-Off as set forth in the Employee Matters Agreement. All other Derivative Securities will be treated for purposes of the Spin-Off in accordance with their respective terms.

(c) None of the Parties, nor any of their Affiliates hereto shall be liable to any Person in respect of any shares of SpinCo Common Stock (or dividends or distributions with respect thereto) that are properly delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law.

Section 4.3 Cooperation and Filings Prepared in Connection with the Spin-Off.

(a) SpinCo shall cooperate with Cogint to accomplish the Spin-Off, including in connection with the preparation of all documents and the making of all filings required in connection with the Spin-Off.

(b) During the ninety (90) days after the Spin-Off Date, in the event that either SpinCo or Cogint (a “Service Recipient”) identifies in writing to the other party (the “Service Provider”) any services that were provided by the Service Provider or any of its Subsidiaries in respect of the business of the Service Recipient or any of its Subsidiaries prior to the Spin-Off and that are reasonably necessary to operate the business of the Service Recipient or any of its Subsidiaries in the manner conducted as of the Spin-Off Date (“Omitted Services”), the Parties will promptly negotiate in good faith the terms governing any such Omitted Service with respect to (i) the nature and description of such Omitted Service, (ii) the duration such Omitted Service will be provided and (iii) the fees for such Omitted Service.

(e) Cogint and SpinCo shall take all such action as may be necessary or appropriate under the securities or “blue sky” Laws of the United States (and any comparable Laws under any foreign jurisdiction) in connection with the Spin-Off.

(f) From the date of this Agreement up to and including the Spin-Off Date, Cogint shall, with respect to the SpinCo Entities, and shall cause each of the SpinCo Entities, to operate substantially in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and except as set forth in Schedule 4.3(f), or as permitted or required by the terms of this Agreement (including the Step Plan), the Employee Matters Agreement, or the Tax Matters Agreement:

(i) Cogint shall not, and shall cause each member of the Cogint Group not to, (x) make, directly or indirectly, any transfer, sale, lease or other disposition of any assets or property to any member of the SpinCo Group or any purchase or acquisition of any property or assets from any member of the SpinCo Group, or (y) enter into any other Contract, arrangement or transaction directly or indirectly with or for the benefit of any member of the SpinCo Group (including without limitation, guarantees and assumptions of obligations or Indebtedness of any member of the SpinCo Group), in each case, outside the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice; and

(ii) SpinCo shall not, and shall cause each member of the SpinCo Group not to, (x) make, directly or indirectly, any transfer, sale, lease or other disposition of any assets or property to any member of the Cogint Group or any purchase or acquisition of any property or assets from any member of the Cogint Group, or (y) enter into any other Contract, arrangement or transaction directly or indirectly with or for the benefit of any member of the Cogint Group (including without limitation, guarantees and assumptions of obligations or Indebtedness of any member of the Cogint Group), in each case, outside the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice.

Agreement such amounts as are required to be deducted and withheld with respect to the making of such payments under the Code or any provision of local or foreign Tax Law. Any withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Persons otherwise entitled thereto. In Cogint’s sole discretion, Cogint may elect to require such stockholders (and also may, in its discretion, reverse such election) to remit to Cogint a cash payment equal to some or all of the amount required to be withheld before such stockholders shall be entitled to receive shares of SpinCo in the Spin-Off. In such event, Cogint shall notify such stockholders of the amount required to be remitted to Cogint, and Cogint shall hold such shares of SpinCo until such amounts are received by Cogint.

(b) Book Entry Form. Upon and following the consummation of the Spin-Off, Cogint, with the assistance of Agent, shall electronically issue shares of SpinCo Common Stock to each Record Holder or other recipient of SpinCo Common Stock by way of direct registration in book-entry form. The Agent will mail each Record Holder and such other recipient a book-entry account statement that reflects such Record Holder’s or other recipient’s SpinCo Common Stock.

Section 4.6 Release of Guarantees or Indemnity.

(a) SpinCo will use its reasonable best efforts to ensure that Cogint and/or any applicable member of the Cogint Group is released following the Spin-Off Date as guarantor of or obligor under any loan, guarantee, lease, Contract or other SpinCo Liability, including those set forth on Schedule 4.6 hereto in favor of SpinCo or any members of the SpinCo Group (each, a “Guarantee”). On or prior to the Spin-Off Date, to the extent required to obtain a release from any such Guarantee, and to the extent reasonably practicable, a SpinCo Entity will execute a Contract in the form of the existing Contract relating to such Guarantee or such other form as is reasonably agreed to by Cogint and the relevant parties to such Guarantee undertaking such obligation(s).

(b) If the Parties are unable to obtain, or to cause to be obtained, any such required removal as set forth in this Section 4.6 prior to the Spin-Off Date, (i) SpinCo will, and will cause the other members of the SpinCo Group to indemnify, defend and hold harmless each of the Cogint Indemnitees for any Liability arising from or relating to such Guarantee and will, as agent or subcontractor for the applicable Cogint Group guarantor or obligor, pay, perform and discharge fully all the obligations or other Liabilities of such guarantor or obligor thereunder, and (ii) SpinCo will not, and will cause the other members of the SpinCo Group not to, agree to renew or extend the term of, increase any obligations under, or transfer to a third Person, any Guarantee for which a member of the Cogint Group is or may be liable unless all obligations of the members of the Cogint Group with respect thereto are thereupon terminated by documentation reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to Cogint.

Without limiting or otherwise affecting the indemnity or limitation of liability provisions of the Ancillary Agreements, from and after the Business Transfer Time, Cogint, and each member of the Cogint Group shall, on a joint and several basis, indemnify, defend (or, where applicable, pay the defense costs for) and hold harmless the SpinCo Indemnitees from and against, and shall reimburse such SpinCo

Indemnitees with respect to, any and all Liabilities that result from, relate to or arise, whether prior to or following the Business Transfer Time, out of any of the following items (without duplication):

(a) the Fluent Business, including any failure of Cogint or any other member of the Cogint Group or any other Person to pay, perform, fulfill, discharge and, to the extent applicable, comply with, promptly and in full any Liability relating to, arising out of or resulting from the Fluent Business;

(b) the Cogint Assets and the Cogint Liabilities;

(c) any breach by Cogint or any other member of the Cogint Group of any agreement or obligation to be performed by such Persons pursuant to this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement unless such Ancillary Agreement expressly provides for separate indemnification therein (which, including any limitations on liability contained therein, shall be controlling); and

(d) the enforcement by the SpinCo Indemnitees of their rights to be indemnified, defended and held harmless under this Section 5.3.

Section 5.4 Indemnification Obligations Net of Insurance Proceeds and Other Amounts; No Right to Subrogation.

(a) The Parties intend that any Liability subject to indemnification or reimbursement pursuant to this Agreement shall be net of (i) Insurance Proceeds received that actually reduce the amount of the Liability for which indemnification is sought or (ii) other amounts recovered from any third party that actually reduce the amount of, or are paid to the applicable Indemnitee in respect of, such Liability (“Third-Party Proceeds”). Accordingly, the amount which any Party (the “Indemnitor”) is required to pay to any Person entitled to indemnification or reimbursement under Section 5.2 or Section 5.3 of this Agreement (the “Indemnitee”) shall be reduced by any Insurance Proceeds or Third-Party Proceeds theretofore actually recovered by or on behalf of the Indemnitee in reduction of the related Liability. If the Indemnitee receives a payment (an “Indemnity Payment”) required by this Agreement from the Indemnitor in respect of any Liability and subsequently receives Insurance Proceeds or Third-Party Proceeds, then the Indemnitee shall promptly pay to the Indemnitor an amount equal to the excess of the Indemnity Payment received over the amount of the Indemnity Payment that would have been due if the Insurance Proceeds or Third-Party Proceeds had been received, realized or recovered before the Indemnity Payment was made. Any Party that may be entitled to any Insurance Proceeds and/or Third Party Proceeds and shall use its reasonable efforts to seek and recover such Insurance Proceeds or other Third Party Proceeds.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, an insurer that would otherwise be obligated to defend or make payment in response to any claim shall not be relieved of the responsibility with respect thereto or, solely by virtue of the indemnification or other provisions hereof, have any subrogation rights with respect thereto, it being expressly understood and agreed that no insurer or any other third party shall be entitled to any benefit that it would not be entitled to receive in the absence of the indemnification or assumption provisions of this Agreement by virtue of the indemnification or assumption provisions hereof.

Section 5.5 Procedures for Defense, Settlement and Indemnification of Third-Party Claims.

(a) If the Indemnitee receives notice or otherwise becomes aware that a Person (including any Governmental Authority) other than a Cogint Entity or a SpinCo Entity has asserted any claim or commenced a Legal Proceeding (other than claims or Legal Proceedings relating to Taxes, which shall be governed by the Tax Matters Agreement) for which the Indemnitee may be entitled to indemnification under this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement (other than the Tax Matters Agreement) (collectively, a “Third-Party Claim”), then the Indemnitee shall notify the Indemnitor in writing as promptly as practicable thereafter. Any such notice shall describe the Third-Party Claim in reasonable detail and include any relevant written correspondence from the third party regarding the Third-Party Claim. If the Indemnitee does not provide this notice of a Third-Party

Claim, then the Indemnitor shall not be relieved of its indemnification obligations under this Article V, except to the extent that the Indemnitor is actually materially prejudiced as a result of such Indemnitee’s failure to give timely notice. The Indemnitee shall deliver copies of all documents it receives regarding the Third-Party Claim to the Indemnitor promptly (and in any event within five (5) Business Days) after the Indemnitee receives them.

(b) With respect to any Third-Party Claim:

(i) Unless the Parties otherwise agree and subject to the cooperation and consultation rights and obligations of the Parties described in Section 5.6, to the extent applicable, within thirty (30) days after the Indemnitor receives notice of a Third-Party Claim in accordance with Section 5.5(a), the Indemnitor shall have the right to assume the defense of the Third-Party Claim (and, unless the Indemnitor has specified any reservations or exceptions and subject to this Section 5.5(b), seek to settle or compromise such Third-Party Claim), at its expense and with its counsel; provided, however, that the defense of such Third-Party Claim by the Indemnitor (A) shall not, in the reasonable determination of the Indemnitee, affect the Indemnitee or any of its controlled Affiliates in a materially adverse manner (and, for the avoidance of doubt, any Third-Party Claim relating to or arising in connection with any criminal proceeding, Legal Proceeding, indictment, allocation or investigation against Cogint or its Affiliates shall be deemed materially adverse to Cogint, and any Third-Party Claim relating to or arising in connection with any criminal proceeding, Legal Proceeding, indictment, allocation or investigation against SpinCo or its Affiliates shall be deemed materially adverse to SpinCo), (B) shall with respect to such Third-Party Claim solely seek (and continue to seek) monetary damages and not equitable relief and (C) shall not, in the reasonable determination of the Indemnitee’s counsel, result in a conflict between the positions of the Indemnitor and Indemnitee in conducting such defense. The Indemnitee may, at its expense, employ separate counsel and participate in (but not control) the defense, compromise, or settlement of the Third-Party Claim with respect to which the Indemnitor has assumed the defense. However, the Indemnitor shall pay the fees and expenses of counsel that the Indemnitee engages for any period during which the Indemnitor has not assumed (or is prohibited from assuming) the defense of the Third-Party Claim (other than for any period in which the Indemnitee did not notify the Indemnitor of the Third-Party Claim as required by Section 5.5(a)).

(ii) No Indemnitor shall consent to entry of a judgment or settle a Third-Party Claim without the applicable Indemnitee’s consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. However, the Indemnitee shall consent to entry of a judgment or a settlement if it (A) does not include a finding or admission by the Indemnitee of a violation of Law or the rights of any Person, (B) involves only monetary relief which the Indemnitor has agreed to pay and could not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse impact (financial or nonfinancial) on the Indemnitee, or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates and (C) includes a full and unconditional release of the Indemnitee. The Indemnitee shall not be required to consent to entry of a judgment or a settlement if it would permit an injunction, declaratory judgment, other order or other non-monetary relief to be entered, directly or indirectly, against any Indemnitee.

(c) No Indemnitee shall admit any Liability with respect to, or settle, compromise or discharge, a Third-Party Claim without the Indemnitor’ s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), unless the Indemnitee releases the Indemnitor of such Indemnitor’s indemnification obligations with respect to such Third-Party Claim.

Section 5.6 Additional Matters.

(a) With respect to any Third-Party Claim for which any SpinCo Entity, on the one hand, and any Cogint Entity, on the other hand, may have Liability under this Agreement or any of the Ancillary Agreements, the Parties agree to cooperate fully and maintain a joint defense (in a manner that shall preserve the attorney-client privilege, joint defense or other privilege with respect thereto) so as to seek to minimize such Liabilities and defense costs associated therewith. The Party that is not responsible for managing the defense of such Third-Party Claims shall, upon reasonable request, be consulted with respect to significant matters relating thereto and may retain counsel to monitor or assist in the defense of such claims at its own cost.

(b) In the event of a Legal Proceeding that involves solely matters that are indemnifiable and in which (i) the Indemnitor is not a named defendant or (ii) any Indemnitee is a named defendant along with the Indemnitor, if either the Indemnitee or the Indemnitor so requests, the Parties shall endeavor, in the case of clause (i), to substitute the Indemnitor for the named defendant and, in the case of clause (ii), cause the Indemnitee to be removed as a named defendant. If such substitution, addition or removal cannot be achieved for any reason or is not requested, the rights and obligations of the Parties regarding indemnification and the management of the defense of claims as set forth in this Article V shall not be affected.

Section 5.7 Contribution.

(a) If the indemnification provided for under this Agreement is judicially determined to be unavailable, or insufficient to hold harmless the Indemnitee in respect of any indemnifiable Liability, then the Indemnitor, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnitee, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the Indemnitee as a result of such Liabilities. The amount contributed by the Indemnitor shall be in such proportion as reflects the relative fault of the Indemnitor and the Indemnitee in connection with the actions or omissions resulting in the Liability and any other relevant equitable considerations.

(b) The Parties agree that any method of allocation of contribution under this Section 5.7 shall take into account the equitable considerations referred to in Section 5.7(a). The amount paid or payable by the Indemnitee to which the Indemnitor shall contribute shall include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Indemnitee to investigate any claim or defend any Legal Proceeding. No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act of 1933) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

Section 5.8 Exclusive Remedy.

(a) Each of SpinCo and Cogint intends and hereby agrees that this Article V sets forth the exclusive remedies and rights of the Parties following the Business Transfer Time in respect of the matters indemnified under this Article V, except that nothing contained in this Section 5.8 will impair any right of any Person (i) to specific performance under this Agreement, (ii) to equitable relief as provided in Section 7.15 hereof, and (iii) to enforce any rights and remedies provided in Ancillary Agreements.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, indemnification, limitations on remedies and limitations on liabilities with respect to (i) the Ancillary Agreements and (ii) any agreements or arrangements entered into after the Business Transfer Time between any member of the SpinCo Group or any of their respective Affiliates, on the one hand, and any member of the Cogint Group or any of their respective Affiliates, on the other hand, in each case, shall be governed by the terms of such agreements or arrangements and not by this Article V.

Section 5.9 Survival of Indemnities. The rights and obligations of Cogint and SpinCo and their respective Indemnitees under this Article V shall survive the Business Transfer Time and the sale or other transfer by any Party of any Assets or businesses or the assignment by any Party of any Liabilities. The indemnity agreements contained in this Article V shall remain operative and in full force and effect, regardless of (a) any investigation made by or on behalf of any Indemnitee and (b) the knowledge by the Indemnitee of Liabilities for which it might be entitled to indemnification hereunder.

Section 5.10 Limitations of Liability. Except as may expressly be set forth in this Agreement, in no event shall Cogint, SpinCo or any member of their respective Groups have any Liability to the other or to any other member of the other’s Group, or to any other Cogint Indemnitee or SpinCo Indemnitee, as applicable, under this Agreement (a) to the extent that any such Liability resulted from any willful violation of Law or fraud by the party seeking indemnification or (b) for any indirect or punitive damages or any damages that are not, as of the Business Transfer Time, reasonably foreseeable (other than to the extent that the Indemnitee is liable for such damages under an order issued by a Governmental Authority in connection with a Third-Party Claim).

ARTICLE VI

ADDITIONAL AGREEMENTS

Section 6.1 Further Assurances. Subject to the limitations of Section 2.2 and the other terms and conditions of this Agreement, each party will use its reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, and to assist and cooperate with the other parties in doing or causing to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable under this Agreement and applicable Laws to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement as soon as practicable. Without limiting the foregoing, where the cooperation of third parties such as insurers or trustees would be necessary in order for a Party to completely fulfill its obligations under this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements, such Party will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such third Parties to provide such cooperation. If any Subsidiary of Cogint or SpinCo is not a party to this Agreement or, as applicable, any Ancillary Agreement, and it becomes necessary or desirable for such Subsidiary to be a party hereto or thereto to carry out the purpose hereof or thereof, then Cogint or SpinCo, as applicable, will cause such Subsidiary to become a party hereto or thereto or cause such Subsidiary to undertake such actions as if such Subsidiary were such a party.

Section 6.2 Agreement for Exchange of Information.

(a) Except for any request for Information relating to any Legal Proceeding or threatened Legal Proceeding by any Cogint Entity or SpinCo Entity against any member of the other’s Group (which shall be governed by such discovery rules as may be applicable thereto), and subject to Section 6.2(b), each of Cogint and SpinCo, on behalf itself and the members of its respective Group, shall use reasonable efforts to provide, to the other Group, at any time prior to, on or after the Business Transfer Time, as soon as reasonably practicable after written request therefor, any Information in the possession or under the control of the members of such Group that the requesting party reasonably requests (i) in connection with reporting, disclosure, filing or other requirements imposed on the requesting party (including under applicable securities or Laws in respect of Taxes) by a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the requesting party, (ii) for use in any other judicial, regulatory, administrative, Tax, insurance or other proceeding or in order to satisfy audit, accounting, claims, regulatory, investigation, litigation, Tax or other similar requirements, or (iii) to comply with its obligations under this Agreement, any Ancillary Agreement, any agreement listed in Section 2.3(b) or any other agreements or arrangements entered into prior to the Business Transfer Time with respect to which the requesting party requires Information from the other Party in order to fulfill the requesting party’s obligations under such agreement or arrangement. The receiving party may use any Information received pursuant to this Section 6.2(a) solely to the extent reasonably necessary to satisfy the applicable obligations or requirements described in the immediately preceding sentence and shall otherwise take reasonable steps to protect such Information. Nothing in this Section 6.2 may be construed as obligating a Party to create Information not already in its possession or control.

(b) If any Party determines that the exchange of any Information pursuant to Section 6.2(a) is reasonably likely to violate any Law or Contract, or waive or jeopardize any attorney-client privilege, or attorney work-product protection, then such party shall not be required to provide access to or furnish such Information to the other Party; provided, however, that the Parties shall take all reasonable measures to permit compliance with Section 6.2(a) in a manner that avoids any such violation, waiver or jeopardy. Cogint and SpinCo intend that any provision of access to or the furnishing of Information that would otherwise be within the ambit of any legal privilege shall not operate as a waiver of such privilege.

Section 6.3 Ownership of Information. The provision of Information pursuant to Section 6.2 shall not grant or confer rights of license or otherwise in any such Information.

Section 6.4 Compensation for Providing Information. Except as otherwise set forth in any Ancillary Agreement, the party requesting Information pursuant to Section 6.2 agrees to reimburse the other Party for the reasonable out-of-pocket costs, if any, actually incurred in seeking, creating, gathering, copying and delivering such Information, to the extent that such costs are incurred for the benefit of the requesting Party.

Section 6.5 Record Retention. To facilitate the possible exchange of Information pursuant to this Article VI and other provisions of this Agreement from and after the Spin-Off Date, each Party agrees to use its reasonable efforts to retain all Information in accordance with its record retention policy as in effect immediately prior to the Spin-Off Date or as modified in good faith thereafter; provided, that to the extent that any Ancillary Agreement provides for a longer retention period for certain Information, such longer period shall control. Cogint shall be entitled to retain a copy of the books and records of the SpinCo Group relating to periods prior to the Spin-Off; provided, that to the extent required to satisfy Cogint’s legal or Contractual obligations, Cogint shall be entitled to retain original books and records relating to such periods, and shall provide SpinCo with a copy of all such retained books and records. In the case of any Information relating to a pending or threatened Legal Proceeding (including any pending or threatened investigation by a Governmental Authority) subject to a “litigation hold” known to any member of the Group that possesses relevant documents or records, such member shall issue and comply (or cause the applicable members of its Group to comply) with the requirements of such “litigation hold.” Notwithstanding the foregoing, Section 6.02 of the Tax Matters Agreement shall govern the retention of Tax Returns, schedules and work papers and all material records or other documents relating thereto. No Party shall have any liability to any other Party if any Information is destroyed after reasonable efforts by such party to comply with the provisions of this Section 6.5.

Section 6.6 Other Agreements Providing for Exchange of Information. The rights granted and obligations imposed under this Article VI shall be subject to any specific limitations, qualifications or additional provisions on the sharing, exchange or confidential treatment of Information set forth in any Ancillary Agreement.

Section 6.7 Production of Witnesses; Records; Cooperation. From and after the Business Transfer Time, except in the case of any Legal Proceeding or threatened Legal Proceeding by any Cogint Entity or SpinCo Entity against any member of the other’s Group (which shall be governed by such discovery rules as may be applicable thereto), each Party, shall (a) cooperate and consult in good faith as reasonably requested in writing by the other Party with respect to (i) any Legal Proceeding, or (ii) any audit or any other legal requirement, in each case, whether relating to this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or otherwise, and (b) use reasonable efforts to make available to such other party the former, current and future directors, managers, officers, employees, other personnel and agents of the members of its respective Group (whether as witnesses or otherwise) and any books, records or other documents within its control or which it otherwise has the ability to make available, to the extent that any such person (giving consideration to business demands of such directors, managers, officers, employees, other personnel and agents) or books, records or other documents may reasonably be required in connection therewith. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 6.7 does not require a Party to take any step that would materially interfere, or that it reasonably determines could materially interfere, with its business. The requesting Party agrees to reimburse the other Party for the reasonable out-of-pocket costs, if any, incurred in connection with a request under this Section 6.7.

Section 6.8 Privilege; Conflicts of Interest.

(a) The parties recognize that legal and other professional services that have been and will be provided prior to the Business Transfer Time have been and will be rendered for the collective benefit of each of the members of the Cogint Group and the SpinCo Group, and that each of the members of the Cogint Group and the SpinCo Group should be deemed to be the client with respect to such services for the purposes of asserting all privileges which may be asserted under applicable Law in connection therewith.

(b) The parties agree as follows:

(i) Cogint shall be entitled, in perpetuity, to control the assertion or waiver of all privileges in connection with any privileged Information that relates solely to the Fluent Business and not to the IDI Business, whether or not the privileged Information is in the possession or under the control of any member of the Cogint Group or any member of the SpinCo Group. Cogint shall also be entitled, in perpetuity, to

control the assertion or waiver of all privileges in connection with any privileged Information that relates solely to any Cogint Liabilities resulting from any Legal Proceedings that are now pending or may be asserted in the future, whether or not the privileged Information is in the possession or under the control of any member of the Cogint Group or any member of the SpinCo Group; and

(ii) SpinCo shall be entitled, in perpetuity, to control the assertion or waiver of all privileges in connection with any privileged Information that relates solely to the IDI Business and not to the Fluent Business, whether or not the privileged Information is in the possession or under the control of any member of the SpinCo Group or any member of the Cogint Group. SpinCo shall also be entitled, in perpetuity, to control the assertion or waiver of all privileges in connection with any privileged Information that relates solely to any SpinCo Liabilities resulting from any Legal Proceedings that are now pending or may be asserted in the future, whether or not the privileged Information is in the possession or under the control of any member of the SpinCo Group or any member of the Cogint Group.

(c) Subject to the restrictions set forth in this Section 6.8, the parties agree that they shall have a shared privilege, each with equal right to assert or waive any such shared privilege, with respect to all privileges not allocated pursuant to Section 6.8(b) and all privileges relating to any Legal Proceedings or other matters that involve both the Cogint Group and the SpinCo Group and in respect of which both parties have Liabilities under this Agreement, and that no such shared privilege or immunity may be waived by either party without the consent of the other party.

(d) In the event of any Legal Proceedings between Cogint and SpinCo, or any members of their respective Groups, either party may waive a privilege in which the other party or member of such other party’s Group has a shared privilege, without obtaining consent pursuant to Section 6.8(c); provided, that such waiver of a shared privilege shall be effective only as to the use of Information with respect to the Legal Proceeding between the parties and/or the applicable members of their respective Groups, and shall not operate as a waiver of the shared privilege with respect to any third Person.

(e) If any dispute arises between Cogint and SpinCo, or any members of their respective Groups, regarding whether a privilege should be waived to protect or advance the interests of either the Cogint Group or the SpinCo Group, each party agrees that it shall (i) negotiate with the other party in good faith, (ii) endeavor to minimize any prejudice to the rights of the other party and (iii) not unreasonably withhold, condition or delay consent to any request for waiver by the other party. Further, each party specifically agrees that it will not withhold its consent to the waiver of a privilege for any purpose except to protect its own legitimate interests.

(f) In furtherance of the parties’ agreement under this Section 6.8, Cogint and SpinCo shall, and shall cause applicable members of their respective Group to, maintain their respective separate and joint privileges, including by entering into joint defense and common interest agreements where necessary or useful for this purpose.

Section 6.9 Insurance.

(a) Except as otherwise provided herein or in any other Ancillary Agreement, from and after the Business Transfer Time, the SpinCo Entities shall cease to be insured by the Cogint Group’s insurance policies or by any of their self-insured or captive insurance programs, except with respect to insurance policies providing coverage on an occurrence basis, including defense and indemnity benefits attributable to or arising from or under such policies or programs (such policies or programs, the “Pre-Spin-Off Insurance Policies”). Any Cogint Entity may, to be effective at the Business Transfer Time, amend any insurance policies in the manner they deem appropriate to give effect to this Section 6.9; provided, that in no event shall a Cogint Entity be permitted to amend any insurance policy in any manner which would eliminate, reduce or otherwise limit coverage for any occurrence or action that occurred prior to the Spin-Off if such coverage was then available. Other than as stated in the foregoing sentences of this Section 6.9(a) and in Section 6.12, from and after the Business Transfer Time, SpinCo shall be responsible for securing all insurance it considers appropriate for its operation of the SpinCo

Entities and the IDI Business and for promptly providing evidence thereof, as may be required, to third parties under any Contract or lease; provided, that notwithstanding the foregoing, each of Cogint and SpinCo shall comply (and shall cause the members of its Group to comply) with the applicable requirements relating to insurance matters set forth in the Ancillary Agreements.

(b) From and after the Business Transfer Time, SpinCo shall not, and shall cause the members of its Group not to, assert any right, claim or interest in, to or under any Pre-Spin-Off Insurance Policies, other than any right, claim or interest that existed prior to the Business Transfer Time. From and after the Business Transfer Time, in the event any SpinCo Entity incurs any Liabilities covered by “occurrence form” Pre-Spin-Off Insurance Policies (“Pre-Spin-Off Insurance Claims”), and notifies Cogint and/or the insurer of such Pre-Spin-Off Insurance Policies, in accordance with the notice provisions of such policies of such Pre-Spin-Off Insurance Claim, Cogint shall, or shall cause its applicable Subsidiaries to, submit such Pre-Spin-Off Insurance Claim to the applicable insurer following such notification. To the extent not covered by or payable under Pre-Spin-Off Insurance Policies, except as provided in Section 6.12, SpinCo shall be solely responsible to Cogint and its Subsidiaries for all costs, expenses and fees in connection with any Pre-Spin-Off Insurance Claim, and for any deductibles, retentions, premium increases on any Pre-Spin-Off Insurance Policies which are attributable to any Pre-Spin-Off Insurance Claims submitted pursuant to this Section 6.9(b). SpinCo shall, and shall cause the members of its Group to, reasonably cooperate with Cogint or its applicable Subsidiaries or the applicable insurer in the investigation, contesting, defense or settlement of such Pre-Spin-Off Insurance Claim. For the avoidance of doubt, (i) any Liabilities involving or related to Pre-Spin-Off Insurance Claims that are in excess of insurance coverage therefor (net of any retention amounts, recovery costs, increases in premium and related deductible payable by Cogint or its Subsidiaries in connection therewith) under applicable Pre-Spin-Off Insurance Policies shall not be the responsibility of Cogint or its Subsidiaries, unless otherwise required by this Agreement, including the provisions of Article V and Section 6.12, (ii) Cogint or its Subsidiaries shall have the right, subject to the terms and provisions of the applicable Pre-Spin-Off Insurance Policy, to investigate, contest, assume the defense of or settle any Pre-Spin-Off Insurance Claim and (iii) any amounts paid by an insurer and/or received by the SpinCo Group pursuant to this Section 6.9(b) shall not constitute indemnifiable Liabilities under Article V, and the SpinCo Group shall have no right to indemnification under Article V with respect to any such amounts. Furthermore, to the extent any Pre-Spin-Off Insurance Claim has been brought under a Pre-Spin-Off Insurance Policy by Cogint or its Subsidiaries, SpinCo shall, and shall cause the members of its Group to, from and after the Business Transfer Time, reasonably cooperate with Cogint or such Subsidiaries in the investigation, contesting, defense or settlement of any such Pre-Spin-Off Insurance Claim.

(c) Subject to Cogint’s compliance with the applicable terms of this Section 6.9 and Section 6.12, the Cogint Group shall have no Liability to the SpinCo Group whatsoever as a result of the insurance policies and practices of the Cogint Group as in effect at any time, including as a result of the level or scope of any such insurance, the creditworthiness of any insurance carrier, the terms and conditions of any policy, or the adequacy or timeliness of any notice to any insurance carrier with respect to any claim or potential claim or otherwise.

Section 6.10 Confidentiality.

(a) From and after the Business Transfer Time, subject to Section 6.10(c) and except as contemplated by or otherwise provided in this Agreement or any other Ancillary Agreement, Cogint shall not, and shall cause each of the members of the Cogint Group and their respective Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, consultants, agents, representatives and advisors (collectively, “Representatives”), not to, directly or indirectly, disclose, reveal, divulge or communicate to any Person other than Representatives of such party or of its Affiliates who reasonably need to know such information in providing services to any member of the Cogint Group, any SpinCo Confidential Information. If any disclosures are made to any member of the Cogint Group in connection with any services provided to a member of the SpinCo Group under this Agreement or any other Ancillary Agreement, then the SpinCo Confidential Information so disclosed shall be used only as required in connection with the receipt of such services. Cogint shall use the same degree of care to prevent and restrain the unauthorized use or disclosure of the SpinCo Confidential Information by any of its Representatives as it

currently uses for its own confidential information of a like nature, but in no event less than a reasonable standard of care. For purposes of this Section 6.10(a), any Information, material or documents relating to the IDI Business currently or formerly conducted, or proposed to be conducted, by any member of the SpinCo Group furnished to, or in possession of, Cogint, irrespective of the form of communication, and all notes, analyses, compilations, forecasts, data, translations, studies, memoranda or other documents prepared by Cogint or its officers, directors and Affiliates, that contain or otherwise reflect such information, material or documents is referred to herein as “SpinCo Confidential Information.” SpinCo Confidential Information does not include, and there shall be no obligation hereunder with respect to, information that (i) is or becomes generally available to the public, other than as a result of a disclosure by any member of the Cogint Group not otherwise permissible hereunder, (ii) Cogint can demonstrate became available to any member of the Cogint Group after the Business Transfer Time from a source other than any member of the Cogint Group, SpinCo Group or their respective Affiliates or (iii) is developed independently by any member of the Cogint Group without reference to the SpinCo Confidential Information; provided, however, that, in the case of clause (ii), the source of such information was not known by any member of the Cogint Group to be bound by a confidentiality agreement with, or other contractual, legal or fiduciary obligation of confidentiality to, SpinCo or any member of the SpinCo Group with respect to such information.

(b) From and after the Business Transfer Time, subject to Section 6.10(c) and except as contemplated by this Agreement or any other Ancillary Agreement, SpinCo shall not, and shall cause each of the members of the SpinCo Group and their respective Affiliates and Representatives, not to, directly or indirectly, disclose, reveal, divulge or communicate to any Person other than Representatives of such party or of its Affiliates who reasonably need to know such information in providing services to SpinCo or any member of the SpinCo Group, any Cogint Confidential Information. If any disclosures are made to any member of the SpinCo Group in connection with any services provided to a member of the SpinCo Group under this Agreement or any other Ancillary Agreement, then the Cogint Confidential Information so disclosed shall be used only as required in connection with the receipt of such services. The SpinCo Group shall use the same degree of care to prevent and restrain the unauthorized use or disclosure of the Cogint Confidential Information by any of their Representatives as they use for their own confidential information of a like nature, but in no event less than a reasonable standard of care. For purposes of this Section 6.10(b), any Information, material or documents relating to the businesses currently or formerly conducted, or proposed to be conducted, by Cogint or any of its Affiliates (other than any member of the SpinCo Group) furnished to, or in possession of, any member of the SpinCo Group, irrespective of the form of communication, and all notes, analyses, compilations, forecasts, data, translations, studies, memoranda or other documents prepared by SpinCo, any member of the SpinCo Group or their respective officers, directors and Affiliates, that contain or otherwise reflect such information, material or documents is hereinafter referred to as “Cogint Confidential Information.” Cogint Confidential Information does not include, and there shall be no obligation hereunder with respect to, information that (i) is or becomes generally available to the public, other than as a result of a disclosure by any member of the SpinCo Group not otherwise permissible hereunder, (ii) SpinCo can demonstrate became available to any member of the SpinCo Group after the Business Transfer Time from a source other than any member of the SpinCo Group, any member of the Cogint Group or their respective Affiliates or (iii) is developed independently by any member of the SpinCo Group without reference to the Cogint Confidential Information; provided, however, that, in the case of clause (ii), the source of such information was not known by any member of the SpinCo Group to be bound by a confidentiality agreement with, or other contractual, legal or fiduciary obligation of confidentiality to, Cogint or its Affiliates with respect to such information.

(c) If Cogint or its Affiliates, on the one hand, or SpinCo or its Affiliates, on the other hand, are requested or required (by oral question, interrogatories, requests for information or documents, subpoena, civil investigative demand or similar process) by any Governmental Authority or pursuant to applicable Law to disclose or provide any SpinCo Confidential Information or Cogint Confidential Information, as applicable, the Person receiving such request or demand shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide the other party with written notice of such request or demand as promptly as practicable under the circumstances so that such other party shall have an opportunity to seek an appropriate protective order. The party receiving such request or

demand agrees to take, and cause its Representatives to take, at the requesting party’s expense, all other reasonable steps necessary to obtain confidential treatment by the recipient. Subject to the foregoing, the party that received such request or demand may thereafter disclose or provide any SpinCo Confidential Information or Cogint Confidential Information, as the case may be, to the extent required by such Law (as so advised by counsel) or by lawful process or such Governmental Authority.

(d) Each of Cogint and SpinCo acknowledges that it and the other members of its Group may have in their possession confidential or proprietary information of third Persons that was received under confidentiality or non-disclosure agreements with such third Person prior to the Business Transfer Time. Cogint and SpinCo each agrees that it will hold, and will cause the other members of its Group and their respective Representatives to hold, in strict confidence the confidential and proprietary information of third Persons to which it or any other member of its respective Group has access, in accordance with the terms of any agreements entered into prior to the Business Transfer Time between or among one (1) or more members of the applicable party’s Group and such third Persons to the extent disclosed to such party.

Section 6.11 Non-Solicitation.

(a) From the Spin-Off Date until the date that is three (3) years after the Spin-Off Date, SpinCo shall not, and shall cause each of its Affiliates and its and their Representatives (to the extent acting on their behalf) not to, without the prior written consent of Cogint, directly or indirectly, (i) solicit for employment (or service) or employ (or engage) any current officer or non-administrative employee of the Cogint Group (the “Cogint Group Employees”) or (ii) knowingly induce or encourage any Cogint Group Employee to no longer be employed by or provide services to the Cogint Group; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 6.11(a) shall prohibit SpinCo or any of its Affiliates or Representatives from (A) engaging in general solicitations to the public or general advertising, including in periodicals, newspapers, trade publications and the Internet, not directly targeted at the Cogint Group Employees, (B) soliciting or employing any person who has been terminated by a Cogint Entity, (C) employing or otherwise working with any Cogint Group Employee who initiates employment discussions with SpinCo or any of its Affiliates solely on his or her own initiative without any direct or indirect solicitation by or encouragement from SpinCo or any of its Affiliates, or (D) soliciting or employing any person who has resigned from employment with a Cogint Entity at least six (6) months prior to such solicitation or employment.

(b) From the Spin-Off Date until the date that is three (3) years after the Spin-Off Date, Cogint shall not, and shall cause each of its Affiliates and its and their Representatives (to the extent acting on their behalf) not to, without the prior written consent of SpinCo, directly or indirectly, (i) solicit for employment (or service) or employ (or engage) any current officer or non-administrative employee of the SpinCo Group (the “SpinCo Group Employees”) or (ii) knowingly induce or encourage any SpinCo Group Employee to no longer be employed by or provide services to the SpinCo Group; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 6.11(b) shall prohibit Cogint or any of its Affiliates or Representatives from (A) engaging in general solicitations to the public or general advertising, including in periodicals, newspapers, trade publications and the Internet, not directly targeted at SpinCo Group Employees, (B) soliciting or employing any person who has been terminated by a SpinCo Entity, (C) employing or otherwise working with any SpinCo Group Employee who initiates employment discussions with Cogint or any of its Affiliates solely on his or her own initiative without any direct or indirect solicitation by or encouragement from Cogint or any of its Affiliates, or (D) soliciting or employing any person who has resigned from employment with a SpinCo Entity at least six (6) months prior to such solicitation or employment.

(c) Cogint and SpinCo acknowledge that the covenants set forth in this Section 6.11 are reasonable in order to protect the value of the Restricted Business, its goodwill and the Cogint Group and in light of the activities and nature of the Restricted Business and the businesses of the parties hereto and their respective Affiliates and the current plans of the Restricted Business and the businesses of the parties hereto and their respective Affiliates. It is the intention of the parties that if any restriction or covenant contained in this

Section 6.11 is held to cover a geographic area or to be for a length of time which is not permitted by applicable Law, or in any way construed to be too broad or to any extent invalid, such restriction or covenant may be amended by a court of competent jurisdiction to interpret or reform (including by substitution, addition or deletion of words and numbers) this Section 6.11 to provide for a covenant having the maximum enforceable geographic area, time period and other provisions (not greater than those contained in this Section 6.11) that would be valid and enforceable under such Law.

Section 6.12 Directors’ and Officers’ Exculpation, Indemnification and Insurance.

(a) From and after the Spin-Off, Cogint and its Subsidiaries will honor and fulfill, in all respects, the obligations of Cogint and its Subsidiaries pursuant to any indemnification agreements entered into before the date of this Agreement between Cogint and any of its Subsidiaries and any of their respective current or former directors or officers (and any person who becomes a director or officer of Cogint or any of its Subsidiaries prior to the Spin-Off) (collectively, the “Indemnified Persons”). In addition, during the period commencing at the Spin-Off and ending on the sixth (6th) anniversary of the Spin-Off, Cogint and its Subsidiaries will cause the certificate of incorporation, bylaws and other similar organizational documents of Cogint and its Subsidiaries to contain provisions with respect to indemnification, exculpation and the advancement of expenses that are at least as favorable as the indemnification, exculpation and advancement of expenses provisions set forth in the certificate of incorporation, bylaws and other similar organizational documents of Cogint and its Subsidiaries as of the Spin-Off Date. During such six (6) year period, such provisions may not be repealed, amended or otherwise modified in any manner except as required by applicable Law.

(b) Without limiting the generality of the provisions of Section 6.12(a), during the period commencing at the Spin-Off and ending on the sixth (6th) anniversary of the Spin-Off, Cogint will indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law or pursuant to any indemnification agreements with Cogint and/or any of its Subsidiaries in effect on the date of the Spin-Off, each Indemnified Person from and against any costs, fees and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and investigation expenses), judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages, Liabilities and amounts paid in settlement or compromise in connection with any Legal Proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, to the extent that such Legal Proceeding arises, directly or indirectly, out of or pertains, directly or indirectly, to (i) any action or omission, or alleged action or omission, in such Indemnified Person’s capacity as a director, officer, employee or agent of Cogint or any of its Subsidiaries (regardless of whether such action or omission, or alleged action or omission, occurred prior to, at or after the Spin-Off); and (ii) any transaction contemplated hereby or in any Ancillary Agreement, as well as any actions taken by Cogint with respect thereto, except that if, at any time prior to the sixth (6th) anniversary of the Spin-Off, any Indemnified Person delivers to the Parent a written notice asserting a claim for indemnification pursuant to this Section 6.12(b), then the claim asserted in such notice will survive the sixth (6th) anniversary of the Spin-Off until such claim is fully and finally resolved. In the event of any such Legal Proceeding, (A) Cogint will have the right to control the defense thereof after the Spin-Off; (B) each Indemnified Person will be entitled to retain his or her own counsel to the extent such Indemnified Person has defenses not available to other defendants in such Legal Proceedings or such Indemnified Person, upon the advice of counsel, reasonably believes it has a conflict of interest with Cogint or its Subsidiaries in such Legal Proceeding, in each case, whether or not Cogint elects to control the defense of any such Legal Proceeding; (C) Cogint will advance all fees and expenses (including reasonable fees and expenses of no more than one separate counsel retained by each Indemnified Person and reasonably acceptable to Cogint and fees relating to posting of any bond) as incurred by an Indemnified Person in the defense of such Legal Proceeding whether or not Cogint elects to control the defense of any such Legal Proceeding, subject to receipt of an undertaking by such Indemnified Person to repay such fees and expenses if it is finally determined by the court of competent jurisdiction that he or she is not entitled to indemnification in the underlying Legal Proceeding; and (D) no Indemnified Person will be liable for any settlement of such Legal Proceeding effected without his or her prior express written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, none of Cogint nor any of its Affiliates will settle or otherwise compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to, or otherwise seek the termination

of, any Legal Proceeding for which indemnification may be sought by an Indemnified Person pursuant to this Agreement unless such settlement, compromise, consent or termination includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Person from all Liability arising out of such Legal Proceeding.

(c) During the period commencing at the Spin-Off and ending on the sixth (6th) anniversary of the Spin-Off, Cogint will maintain in effect directors’ and officers’ liability insurance (“D&O Insurance”) in respect of acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Spin-Off on terms (including with respect to coverage, conditions, retentions, limits and amounts) that are substantially equivalent to those of Cogint’s and its Subsidiaries’ current directors’ and officers’ liability insurance. Prior to the Spin-Off, Cogint may purchase a prepaid “tail” policy with respect to the D&O Insurance from an insurance carrier with the same or better credit rating as Cogint’s current directors’ and officers’ liability insurance carrier. If Cogint elects to purchase such a “tail” policy prior to the Spin-Off, Cogint will maintain such “tail” policy in full force and effect and continue to honor its obligations thereunder, in lieu of all other obligations under the first sentence of this Section 6.12(c), for so long as such “tail” policy is in full force and effect.

(d) If Cogint or any of its successors or assigns will (i) consolidate with or merge into any other Person and not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity in such consolidation or merger; or (ii) transfer all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then proper provisions will be made so that the successors and assigns of Cogint or any of its successors or assigns will assume all of the obligations of Cogint set forth in this Section 6.12.

(e) The obligations set forth in this Section 6.12 may not be terminated, amended or otherwise modified in any manner that adversely affects any Indemnified Person (or any other person who is a beneficiary pursuant to the D&O Insurance or the “tail” policy referred to in Section 6.12(c) (and their heirs and Representatives)) without the prior written consent of such affected Indemnified Person or other person who is a beneficiary under the D&O Insurance or the “tail” policy referred to in Section 6.12(c) (and their heirs, agents and Representatives). Each of the Indemnified Persons or other persons who are beneficiaries pursuant to the D&O Insurance or the “tail” policy referred to in Section 6.12(c) (and their heirs, agents and Representatives) are intended to be third-party beneficiaries of this Section 6.12, with full rights of enforcement as if a Party. The rights of the Indemnified Persons (and other persons who are beneficiaries pursuant to the D&O Insurance or the “tail” policy referred to in Section 6.12(c) (and their heirs, agents and Representatives)) pursuant to this Section 6.12 will be in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other rights that such persons may have pursuant to the certificate of incorporation, bylaws and other similar organizational documents of Cogint and its Subsidiaries, any and all indemnification agreements entered into with Cogint or any of its Subsidiaries before the Spin-Off Date or applicable Law (whether at Law or in equity).

(f) Nothing in this Agreement is intended to, or will be construed to, release, waive or impair any rights to directors’ and officers’ insurance claims pursuant to any applicable insurance policy or indemnification agreement that is or has been in existence with respect to Cogint or any of its Subsidiaries for any of their respective directors, officers or other employees, it being understood and agreed that the indemnification provided for in this Section 6.12 is not prior to or in substitution for any such claims pursuant to such policies or indemnification agreement.

No waiver by any of the Parties of any breach hereunder, whether intentional or not, shall be deemed to extend to any prior or subsequent breach hereunder or affect in any way any rights arising by virtue of any prior or subsequent such occurrence. No waiver by any of the Parties of any of the provisions hereof shall be effective unless explicitly set forth in writing and executed by the Party sought to be charged with such waiver.

(b) This Agreement may be amended or modified in whole or in part, only by a duly authorized agreement in writing executed by the Parties in the same manner as this Agreement and which makes reference to this Agreement. The Parties hereby agree to provide written notice to Xxxx Xxxxxxx of any such amendments.

Section 7.8 Termination. This Agreement may be terminated upon the mutual written agreement of the Parties. If terminated, no Party shall have any Liability of any kind to the other Party or any other Person on account of this Agreement.

Section 7.13 Captions; Counterparts. The captions in this Agreement are for convenience only and shall not be considered a part of or affect the construction or interpretation of any provision of this Agreement.

(b) Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR THE ANCILLARY AGREEMENTS IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE IT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE ANCILLARY AGREEMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT AND THE ANCILLARY AGREEMENTS.

1.02 Other Offices. The Corporation may also have an office or offices, and keep the books and records of the Corporation, except as may otherwise be required by law, at such other place or places, either within or without the State of Delaware, as the board of directors may from time to time determine or the business of the Corporation may require.

ARTICLE TWO

MEETINGS OF STOCKHOLDERS

2.01 Annual Meetings. An annual meeting of stockholders for the purpose of electing directors and for the transaction of such other business as may properly be brought before the meeting shall be held at such time and place, if any, either within or without the State of Delaware, as may be determined by the board of directors.

2.02 Special Meetings. The chairman of the board, the president, or a majority of the members of the board of directors by written request shall have the power to call a special meeting of stockholders at any time. Special meetings of stockholders may not be called by any other person.

2.03 Notice of Meetings. Whenever stockholders are required or permitted to take any action at a meeting, a notice of the meeting shall be given that shall state the place, if any, date and time of the meeting (and the means of remote communications, if any, by which stockholders and proxyholders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at such meeting), the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting (if such date is different from the record date for stockholders entitled to notice of the meeting) and, in the case of a special meeting, the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called. Unless otherwise provided by law, the certificate of incorporation or these bylaws, the notice of any meeting shall be given not less than ten (10) nor more than sixty (60) days before the date of the meeting to each stockholder entitled to vote at the meeting as of the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to notice of the meeting. Business transacted at any special meeting shall be limited to the purposes stated in the notice to stockholders.

2.04 List of Stockholders Entitled to Vote. The Corporation shall prepare and make, at least ten (10) days before every meeting of stockholders, a complete list of the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting (provided, however, if the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting is less than ten (10) days before the date of the meeting, the list shall reflect the stockholders entitled to vote as of the tenth day before the meeting date), arranged in alphabetical order and showing the address of each stockholder and the number of shares registered in the name of each stockholder. Such list shall be open to the examination of any stockholder for any purpose germane to the meeting at least ten (10) days before the meeting (i) on a reasonably

accessible electronic network, provided that the information required to gain access to such list is provided with the notice of meeting or (ii) during ordinary business hours at the principal place of business of the Corporation. If the meeting is to be held at a place, then a list of stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting shall be produced and kept at the time and place of the meeting during the whole time thereof and may be examined by any stockholder who is present. If the meeting is to be held solely by means of remote communication, then the list shall also be open to the examination of any stockholder during the whole time of the meeting on a reasonably accessible electronic network, and the information required to access such list shall be provided with the notice of the meeting. Except as otherwise provided by law, the stock ledger shall be the only evidence as to who are the stockholders entitled to examine the list of stockholders required by this Section 2.04 or to vote in person or by proxy at any meeting of stockholders.

2.05 Fixing Date for Determination of Stockholders of Record.

(A) In order that the Corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to notice of any meeting of stockholders or any adjournment thereof, the board of directors may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the board of directors, and which record date shall, unless otherwise required by law, not be more than sixty (60) nor less than ten (10) days before the date of such meeting. If the board of directors so fixes a date, such date shall also be the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote at such meeting unless the board of directors determines, at the time it fixes such record date, that a later date on or before the date of the meeting shall be the date for making such determination. If no record date is fixed by the board of directors, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall be at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which notice is given, or, if notice is waived, at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which the meeting is held. A determination of stockholders of record entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall apply to any adjournment of the meeting; provided, however, that the board of directors may fix a new record date for determination of stockholders entitled to vote at the adjourned meeting, and in such case shall also fix as the record date for stockholders entitled to notice of such adjourned meeting the same or an earlier date as that fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to vote in accordance herewith at the adjourned meeting.

(B) In order that the Corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution or allotment of any rights, or entitled to exercise any rights in respect of any change, conversion or exchange of stock or for the purpose of any other lawful action, the board of directors may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted, and which record date shall not be more than sixty (60) days prior to such action. If no such record date is fixed, the record date for determining stockholders for any such purpose shall be at the close of business on the day on which the board of directors adopts the resolution relating thereto.

(C) Unless otherwise restricted by the certificate of incorporation, in order that the Corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to express consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting, the board of directors may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the board of directors, and which record date shall not be more than ten (10) days after the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the board of directors. If no record date for determining stockholders entitled to express consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting is fixed by the board of directors, (i) when no prior action of the board of directors is required by law, the record date for such purpose shall be the first date on which a signed written consent setting forth the action taken or proposed to be taken is delivered to the corporation in accordance with applicable law, and (ii) if prior action by the board of directors is required by law, the record date for such purpose shall be at the close of business on the day on which the board of directors adopts the resolution taking such prior action.

2.06 Organization; Chairman and Secretary. The first mentioned of the following officers who is present at a meeting of stockholders shall be chosen as chairman to preside over the meeting: president, chairman of the

board, or a vice-president. If no such officer is present at the meeting, a chairman of the meeting shall be chosen by the holders of a majority in voting power of the stock entitled to vote thereat, present in person or by proxy. The secretary, or in his or her absence, an assistant secretary, or in the absence of the secretary and all assistant secretaries, a person whom the chairman of the meeting shall appoint, shall act as secretary of the meeting and keep a record of the proceedings thereof.

2.07 Inspector of Election. The Corporation may, and shall if required by law, in advance of any meeting of stockholders, appoint one or more inspectors of election, who may (unless otherwise required by applicable law) be employees of the Corporation, to act at the meeting or any adjournment thereof and to make a written report thereof. The Corporation may designate one or more persons as alternate inspectors to replace any inspector who fails to act. In the event that no inspector so appointed or designated is able to act at a meeting of stockholders, the chairman of the meeting shall appoint one or more inspectors to act at the meeting. Each inspector, before entering upon the discharge of his or her duties, shall take and sign an oath to execute faithfully the duties of inspector with strict impartiality and according to the best of his or her ability. The inspector or inspectors so appointed or designated shall (i) ascertain the number of shares of capital stock of the Corporation outstanding and the voting power of each such share, (ii) determine the shares of capital stock of the Corporation represented at the meeting and the validity of proxies and ballots, (iii) count all votes and ballots, (iv) determine and retain for a reasonable period a record of the disposition of any challenges made to any determination by the inspectors, and (v) certify their determination of the number of shares of capital stock of the Corporation represented at the meeting and such inspectors’ count of all votes and ballots. Such certification and report shall specify such other information as may be required by law. In determining the validity and counting of proxies and ballots cast at any meeting of stockholders of the Corporation, the inspectors may consider such information as is permitted by applicable law. No person who is a candidate for an office at an election may serve as an inspector at such election.

2.08 Conduct of Meetings. The date and time of the opening and the closing of the polls for each matter upon which the stockholders will vote at a meeting shall be announced at the meeting by the person presiding over the meeting. The board of directors may adopt by resolution such rules and regulations for the conduct of the meeting of stockholders as it shall deem appropriate. Except to the extent inconsistent with such rules and regulations as adopted by the board of directors, the chairman of the meeting shall have the right and authority to convene the meeting, to prescribe such rules, regulations and procedures and to do all such acts as, in the judgment of such presiding person, are appropriate for the proper conduct of the meeting. Such rules, regulations or procedures, whether adopted by the board of directors or prescribed by the chairman of the meeting, may include, without limitation, the following: (i) the establishment of an agenda or order of business for the meeting; (ii) rules and procedures for maintaining order at the meeting and the safety of those present; (iii) limitations on attendance at or participation in the meeting to stockholders of record of the Corporation, their duly authorized and constituted proxies or such other persons as the presiding person of the meeting shall determine; (iv) restrictions on entry to the meeting after the time fixed for the commencement thereof; and (v) limitations on the time allotted to questions or comments by participants. The chairman of the meeting, in addition to making any other determinations that may be appropriate to the conduct of the meeting, shall, if the facts warrant, determine and declare to the meeting that a matter or business was not properly brought before the meeting and if the chairman should so determine, shall so declare to the meeting and any such matter or business not properly brought before the meeting shall not be transacted or considered.

2.09 Quorum. A quorum for the transaction of business at any meeting of stockholders shall be at least a majority of the shares entitled to vote at the meeting, present in person or represented by proxy. If a quorum is present at the opening of any meeting of stockholders, the stockholder or stockholders present or represented may proceed with the business of the meeting notwithstanding that a quorum is not present throughout the meeting. If a quorum is not present at the time appointed for the meeting or within a reasonable time thereafter as the stockholders may determine, the stockholders present or represented may, by majority vote, adjourn the meeting to a fixed time and place but may not transact any other business.

2.10 Proxies. Each stockholder entitled to vote at a meeting of stockholders may authorize another person or persons to act for such stockholder by proxy, but no such proxy shall be voted or acted upon after three years from its date. A proxy shall be irrevocable if it states that it is irrevocable and if, and only as long as, it is coupled with an interest sufficient in law to support an irrevocable power. A stockholder may revoke any proxy which is not irrevocable by attending the meeting and voting in person or by delivering to the secretary of the Corporation a revocation of the proxy or a new proxy bearing a later date.

2.11 Right to Vote; Voting. Except as otherwise provided by the certificate of incorporation or applicable law, each stockholder entitled to vote at any meeting of stockholders shall be entitled to one vote for each share of stock held by such stockholder which has voting power upon the matter in question. At any meeting of stockholders for the election of directors at which a quorum is present, a plurality of the votes cast shall be sufficient to elect. All other elections and questions presented to the stockholders at a meeting at which a quorum is present shall, unless otherwise provided by the certificate of incorporation, these bylaws, the rules or regulations of any stock exchange applicable to the Corporation, or applicable law or pursuant to any regulation applicable to the Corporation or its securities, be decided by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority in voting power of the shares of stock of the Corporation which are present in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon. Voting at meetings of stockholders need not be by written ballot.

2.12 Adjournment. Any meeting of stockholders, annual or special, may adjourn from time to time to reconvene at the same or some other place, and notice need not be given of any such adjourned meeting if the time and place, if any, thereof (and the means of remote communication, if any, by which stockholders and proxy holders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at such adjourned meeting) are announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken. At the adjourned meeting, the Corporation may transact any business which might have been transacted at the original meeting. If the adjournment is for more than thirty (30) days, a notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at the meeting. If after the adjournment a new record date for stockholders entitled to vote is fixed for the adjourned meeting, the board of directors shall fix a new record date for notice of such adjourned meeting, and shall give notice of the adjourned meeting to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at such adjourned meeting as of the record date for notice of such adjourned meeting.

2.13 Notice of Stockholder Business and Nominations.

(A) Annual Meetings of Stockholders.

(1) Nominations of persons for election to the board of directors of the Corporation and the proposal of other business to be considered by the stockholders may be made at an annual meeting of stockholders only (a) pursuant to the Corporation’s notice of meeting (or any supplement thereto), (b) by or at the direction of the board of directors or any committee thereof or (c) by any stockholder of the Corporation who was a stockholder of record of the Corporation at the time the notice provided for in this Section 2.13 is delivered to the secretary of the Corporation, who is entitled to vote at the meeting and who complies with the notice procedures set forth in this Section 2.13.

(2) For any nominations or other business to be properly brought before an annual meeting by a stockholder pursuant to clause (c) of paragraph (A)(1) of this Section 2.13, the stockholder must have given timely notice thereof in writing to the secretary of the Corporation and any such proposed business (other than the nominations of persons for election to the board of directors) must constitute a proper matter for stockholder action. To be timely, a stockholder’s notice shall be delivered to the secretary at the principal executive offices of the Corporation not later than the close of business on the ninetieth (90th) day, nor earlier than the close of business on the one hundred twentieth (120th) day, before the first anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting. However, in the event the date of the annual meeting is more than thirty (30) days before or more than seventy (70) days after such anniversary date, notice by the stockholder must be so delivered not earlier than the close of business on the one hundred twentieth (120th) day before such annual meeting and not later than the close of business on the later of the ninetieth (90th) day before

such annual meeting or the tenth (10th) day following the day on which public announcement of the date of such meeting is first made by the Corporation). In no event shall the public announcement of an adjournment or postponement of an annual meeting commence a new time period (or extend any time period) for the giving of a stockholder’s notice as described above. Such stockholder’s notice shall set forth: (a) as to each person whom the stockholder proposes to nominate for election as a director (i) all information relating to such person that is required to be disclosed in solicitations of proxies for election of directors in an election contest, or is otherwise required, in each case pursuant to and in accordance with Section 14(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, and (ii) such person’s written consent to being named in the Corporation’s proxy statement as a nominee and to serving as a director if elected; (b) as to any other business that the stockholder proposes to bring before the meeting, a brief description of the business desired to be brought before the meeting, the text of the proposal or business (including the text of any resolutions proposed for consideration and in the event that such business includes a proposal to amend the bylaws of the Corporation, the language of the proposed amendment), the reasons for conducting such business at the meeting and any material interest in such business of such stockholder and the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the proposal is made; and (c) as to the stockholder giving the notice and the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the nomination or proposal is made (i) the name and address of such stockholder, as they appear on the Corporation’s books, and of such beneficial owner, (ii) the class or series and number of shares of capital stock of the Corporation which are owned beneficially and of record by such stockholder and such beneficial owner, (iii) a description of any agreement, arrangement or understanding with respect to the nomination or proposal between or among such stockholder and/or such beneficial owner, any of their respective affiliates or associates, and any others acting in concert with any of the foregoing, including, in the case of a nomination, the nominee, (iv) a description of any agreement, arrangement or understanding (including any derivative or short positions, profit interests, options, warrants, convertible securities, stock appreciation or similar rights, hedging transactions, and borrowed or loaned shares) that has been entered into as of the date of the stockholder’s notice by, or on behalf of, such stockholder and such beneficial owners, whether or not such instrument or right shall be subject to settlement in underlying shares of capital stock of the Corporation, the effect or intent of which is to mitigate loss to, manage risk or benefit of share price changes for, or increase or decrease the voting power of, such stockholder or such beneficial owner, with respect to securities of the Corporation, (v) a representation that the stockholder is a holder of record of stock of the Corporation entitled to vote at such meeting and intends to appear in person or by proxy at the meeting to propose such business or nomination, (vi) a representation whether the stockholder or the beneficial owner, if any, intends or is part of a group which intends (a) to deliver a proxy statement and/or form of proxy to holders of at least the percentage of the Corporation’s outstanding capital stock required to approve or adopt the proposal or elect the nominee and/or (b) otherwise to solicit proxies or votes from stockholders in support of such proposal or nomination, and (vii) any other information relating to such stockholder and beneficial owner, if any, required to be disclosed in a proxy statement or other filings required to be made in connection with solicitations of proxies for, as applicable, the proposal and/or for the election of directors in an election contest pursuant to and in accordance with Section 14(a) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. The foregoing notice requirements of this paragraph (A) of this Section 2.13 shall be deemed satisfied by a stockholder with respect to business or a nomination if the stockholder has notified the Corporation of his, her or its intention to present a proposal or make a nomination at an annual meeting in compliance with applicable rules and regulations promulgated under the Exchange Act and such stockholder’s proposal or nomination has been included in a proxy statement that has been prepared by the Corporation to solicit proxies for such annual meeting. The Corporation may require any proposed nominee to furnish such other information as the Corporation may reasonably require to determine the eligibility of such proposed nominee to serve as a director of the Corporation.

(3) Notwithstanding anything in the second sentence of paragraph (A)(2) of this Section 2.13 to the contrary, in the event that the number of directors to be elected to the board of directors of the Corporation at the annual meeting is increased effective after the time period for which nominations would otherwise be

due under paragraph (A)(2) of this Section 2.13 and there is no public announcement by the Corporation naming the nominees for the additional directorships at least one hundred (100) days before the first anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting, a stockholder’s notice required by this Section 2.13 shall also be considered timely, but only with respect to nominees for the additional directorships, if it shall be delivered to the secretary at the principal executive offices of the Corporation not later than the close of business on the tenth (10th) day following the day on which such public announcement is first made by the Corporation.
