Illinois corporation with its principal place of business at ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇,
▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ ("Kanbay"), and ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Technology
Group, Inc., a Missouri corporation with its principal place of business at ▇▇▇
▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇. ▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ ("▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇"). The parties agree as
follows:
1. SCOPE OF WORK
1.1. SERVICES. "Services" means the obligations of Kanbay under Sections 1
through and including 11 of this Agreement and all consulting, development,
programming, conversion, management, operations, and other services to be
performed by Kanbay pursuant to each mutually agreed upon and executed Statement
of Work (each a "Statement of Work"). Each Statement of Work entered into by the
parties shall reference this Agreement and shall be attached hereto and made a
part of this Agreement; provided, however, the contents of any Statement of Work
shall take precedence over any conflicting provision in this Agreement to the
extent necessary to resolve any such conflict. Kanbay shall perform all Services
at the location(s), on the date(s), and during the term provided for in such
Statement of Work, and any applicable Termination Assistance Period (as such
term is defined in Section 9.2.1 of this Agreement).
1.2. RELATIONSHIP OF THE PARTIES. Kanbay shall be an independent contractor
of ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇. As between Kanbay and ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, all persons retained by
Kanbay to perform Services for ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ hereunder shall be employees or
subcontractors of Kanbay and shall not be employees of ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.
1.3. PLACE OF WORK. Kanbay's personnel will perform all work for ▇.▇.
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ at the ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇' premises designated by ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ in its sole
discretion, except when it is determined by ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ that it is mutually
beneficial to have a project or task performed off-site or otherwise agreed by
the parties in an applicable Statement of Work. No Services shall be performed
from, through or using a location outside the United States, except as may be
expressly authorized by ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, in its sole discretion, in writing in an
applicable Statement of Work.
1.4. KANBAY PERSONNEL. Unless otherwise provided in a Statement of Work,
before assigning an individual to perform Services for ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, Kanbay
shall notify ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ of the proposed assignment and, subject to applicable
Law, provide ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ with any information regarding the individual that
▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ requests. ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ may interview the personnel Kanbay proposes
to assign to ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇' work, including to determine if such personnel are
appropriate for the work based on their specific or general skills or their
background and experience. ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ has the right to require replacement of
any individual assigned to perform Services to ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ who is
unsatisfactory to ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ for any reason, and Kanbay shall use commercially
reasonable efforts to provide a qualified replacement as soon as practicable.
The individuals designated in the applicable Statement of Work as assigned to
perform Services for ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ on a full-time basis will remain dedicated on
a full-time basis to the ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ project for which they were assigned
throughout the duration of the project, and such individuals will not be
reassigned by Kanbay to any other project without ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇' prior written
consent. In the event that any individual assigned to perform Services for ▇.▇.
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ is replaced, Kanbay shall ensure an orderly succession and knowledge
transfer without disruption to such Services or ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇' business.

and Kanbay personnel shall (a) comply with the requests, rules and regulations
of ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ regarding safety and health, personal and professional conduct
(including adhering to general safety practices or procedures) generally
applicable to such ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ premises and (b) otherwise conduct themselves in
a businesslike manner. Kanbay shall require all Kanbay personnel having access

▇▇▇▇▇▇▇' prior consent while such personnel are assigned to ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇'
account or otherwise providing any Services under this Agreement.
2. ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ RESPONSIBILITIES
2.1. COOPERATION. ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall cooperate with Kanbay by providing to

3.1. FEES. The fees for Kanbay's Services will be charged in U.S. dollars on
the terms and at the rates specified in the applicable Statement of Work.
3.2. EXPENSES. ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall reimburse Kanbay for all actual expenses
that are authorized by ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ in an applicable Statement of Work or
otherwise agreed in writing in advance, reasonably incurred by Kanbay and Kanbay
personnel in the course of performing the Services hereunder and evidenced by
receipts provided to ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ("Expenses").

applicable sales, use, excise, value added, or similar taxes, duties, or
assessments imposed upon the Services rendered hereunder by any federal, state,
local, or foreign government authority, exclusive of any taxes based upon
Kanbay's income or payroll; provided, however, that ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall not be
responsible for any withholding tax on cross-border or other payments made
between Kanbay and its Affiliates or contractors. ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and Kanbay shall
cooperate to segregate the fees into the following separate payment streams: (a)
those for taxable Services; (b) those for nontaxable Services; and (b) those for
which a sales, use or other similar tax has already been paid. In addition, each
of ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and Kanbay shall cooperate with the other to more accurately
determine a party's tax liability and to minimize such liability, to the extent
legally permissible.
3.5. PAYMENTS. Each accurate invoice shall be due and payable to Kanbay, at
the address specified in the preamble to this Agreement, in U.S. dollars within
thirty (30) calendar days after receipt of such accurate invoice and any past
due undisputed amounts shall thereafter accrue interest, until paid, at the
lesser of 1.5% per month or the maximum interest rate permitted under applicable
law.
3.6. NO OTHER CHARGES. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement,

security taxes, and unemployment insurance applicable to such personnel as
employees of Kanbay. Kanbay shall bear sole responsibility for any health or

▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇' benefit plans, from and against any claims, liabilities, or
expenses (including reasonable attorney fees) relating to Kanbay's obligations
or liabilities for such compensation, tax, insurance, or benefit matters,
provided that ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall promptly notify Kanbay of each such claim when
and as it comes to ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇'▇ attention, ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall cooperate with
Kanbay in the defense and resolution of such claim, and ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall not
settle or otherwise dispose of such claim without Kanbay's prior written
consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld.
3.8. REVIEW OF BACKGROUND. Kanbay shall obtain the consent from each person
assigned to perform Services for ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ to allow ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ or its
agents to conduct a review of such person's background, including but not
limited to, consent to obtain and use the fingerprints of each such person to
conduct a background review.
3.9. LEGAL STATUS. Except to the extent ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ authorizes Services to
be performed from a location outside the United States in accordance with
Section 1.3 of this Agreement, Kanbay shall only assign persons to perform
Services for ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ who are legally eligible to work in the United States
in accordance with all local, state and federal Laws. Kanbay shall notify ▇.▇.
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ in writing of any restrictions of any nature regarding the legal
eligibility to work of any person assigned to perform Services for ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇,
including, but not limited to, the expiration dates for any work VISA or other
time-restricted work permit. The foregoing obligations of Kanbay shall not apply
with respect to the personnel formerly employed by ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ and transitioned
to employment with Kanbay pursuant to Statement of Work No. 001.
3.10. STATE AND FEDERAL TAXES. As neither Kanbay nor its personnel are ▇.▇.
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇' employees, ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ will not provide Kanbay's personnel with any
benefits or commitments inconsistent with any of the benefits or commitments
provided by Kanbay. Likewise, ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ will not take any action with respect

foregoing) that: (a) existed prior to the Effective Date, or (b) are acquired by
Kanbay from a third party or developed independently of providing the Services

4.3. LICENSE TO USE KANBAY PROPERTIES. Kanbay hereby grants to ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇
a perpetual, world-wide, royalty-free, non-exclusive, non-transferable (except

the other party and without unauthorized use or disclosure of the other party's
Properties.
4.5. THIRD-PARTY PROPERTIES. Except to the extent necessary to effectuate

5. CONFIDENTIALITY
5.1. GENERAL. The parties agree that the exchange of Confidential
Information between the parties shall be governed by the Confidentiality

Properties are Confidential Information under the Confidentiality Agreement, as

5.2. AGE INDIVIDUAL DATA. Without limiting Kanbay's obligations under the
Confidentiality Agreement, Kanbay shall not, and shall ensure that its
Affiliates and contractors do not, access, alter, transfer or otherwise process
any AGE Individual Data except in accordance with any applicable Statement of
Work. ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall not provide, deliver, or allow access to any AGE
Individual Data, or request Kanbay to process any AGE Individual Data, except in
accordance with any applicable Statement of Work. If an applicable Statement of
Work specifically requires Kanbay to access, alter, transfer or otherwise
process any AGE Individual Data, Kanbay shall, and shall cause its Affiliates
and contractors to, provide ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ with such assistance, information and
cooperation as ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ may request to enable ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ to allow any
client, person or entity to exercise any of its, his or her or its rights under
Law in relation to the AGE Individual Data. "AGE Individual Data" shall mean any
data relating to employees or past, current or potential customers of ▇.▇.
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ or its Affiliates, or which is personally identifiable to any
individual, including any data subject to any Laws relating to data privacy,
trans-border data flow or data protection, such as the ▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇▇ Act
(U.S.), the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act
(Canada) and the implementing legislation and regulations of the European Union
member states under the European Union Directive 95/46/EC. For purposes of
clarity, AGE Individual Data is and shall be treated as Confidential
Information, subject to the additional limitations of this Section 5.2.
5.3. ACCESS AND RETURN OF CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall have
unrestricted access to, and the right to review and retain the entirety of, all
computer or other files containing Confidential Information of ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.
Upon request by ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ at any time, Kanbay shall (a) promptly return to
▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, in the format and on the media as originally supplied by ▇.▇.
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, all or any part of ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Confidential Information and (b) erase
or destroy all or any part of ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Confidential Information in Kanbay's
possession or the possession of Kanbay's Affiliates or contractors, in each case
to the extent so requested by ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, and deliver to ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ a
written certification of such erasure or destruction signed by an authorized
representative of Kanbay.
6. INDEMNIFICATION
6.1. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY. If either party (each, as applicable, an
"Indemnitee") becomes subject to a claim against it that any portion of the
Properties supplied by the other party (an "Indemnitor") (i.e., the ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇
Properties in the case of ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ as Indemnitor, and the Kanbay Properties
or Deliverables, in the case of Kanbay as Indemnitor) infringes a proprietary
right of a third party, the Indemnitor shall, with respect to and to the extent
of the portion of the claim pertaining to such Property, at its sole expense,
defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Indemnitee with respect to such claim
and all costs, expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees), fines,
penalties, deficiencies, losses, liabilities (including
MASTER SERVICES AGREEMENT
V.09.17.03
-5-
settlements and judgments) resulting from, arising from or relating to such
claim. THIS SECTION SETS FORTH THE COMPLETE LIABILITY OF THE PARTIES WITH
RESPECT TO INFRINGEMENT OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS.
6.2. SOLE CONTROL. If an Indemnitee becomes subject to a third party claim,
notice thereof shall be given by the Indemnitee to the Indemnitor as promptly as
practicable. Any delay by the Indemnitee in providing such notice shall not
limit the Indemnitor's obligations pursuant to this Agreement except to the
extent of any losses caused by such delay. To the extent of the portion of the
claim for which the Indemnitor is responsible pursuant to this Agreement, the
Indemnitor under any of the indemnities set forth in this Agreement shall
promptly assume and have sole control of the defense of any such claim and all
negotiations for settlement; provided, however, that the Indemnitee may, at its
own cost, participate, through its attorneys or otherwise, in such
investigation, trial and defense of such claim and any appeal arising therefrom.
The Indemnitee shall cooperate, at the cost of the Indemnitor, with the
Indemnitor in the investigation, trial and defense of such claim and any appeal
arising therefrom. The Indemnitor shall not be obligated to indemnify the
Indemnitee under any settlement made without the Indemnitor's consent or in the
event the Indemnitee fails to reasonably cooperate (at the Indemnitor's expense)
in the defense of any such claim. The Indemnitor shall have no authority to make
any admission on behalf of the Indemnitee or enter into any agreement imposing
an affirmative obligation on the Indemnitee without the Indemnitee's prior
written consent.
6.3. OPTION TO AVOID INFRINGEMENT. Without limiting Kanbay's indemnification
obligations hereunder, in the event that in Kanbay's opinion, any portion of the
Kanbay Properties or any Deliverable developed in connection with this Agreement
is likely to or does become the subject of a claim of infringement of any
letters patent, copyright, trademark, service ▇▇▇▇, trade name, trade secret or
other intellectual or proprietary right of any third party (the "Disputed
Portion"), Kanbay may, at its sole option and expense, procure for ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇
the right to continue using the Disputed Portion, modify the Disputed Portion to
make it noninfringing, or replace the Disputed Portion with a substantially
similar, noninfringing replacement. If Kanbay does not exercise one of the above
options, (i) Kanbay shall send ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ a written notice requiring ▇.▇.
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ to terminate its use of the Disputed Portion within a reasonable period
(but not less than thirty (30) days), (ii) ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall terminate its use
of the Disputed Portion within said period, and (iii) Kanbay shall refund a pro
rata portion of fees paid by ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ to Kanbay representing the fees paid
for the development or provision of the Disputed Portion. If, however, ▇.▇.
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ fails to terminate its use of the Disputed Portion after such reasonable
notice period, ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall indemnify Kanbay for any and all claims of
infringement against it to the extent resulting from ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇'▇ continued
use of the Disputed Portion.
