Buyer shall deliver the Closing Balance Sheet to Seller as soon as reasonably practicable after the Closing Date but in any event within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date.

2.5.1. Working Capital Statement.

Seller shall notify Buyer in writing of any objections to the Working Capital Statement and/or Closing Balance Sheet within thirty (30) days after Seller receives the Working Capital Statement and the Closing Balance Sheet. If Seller does not notify Buyer of any such objections by the end of that thirty-day period, then the Working Capital Statement and the Closing Balance Sheet shall each be considered final on the last day of that thirty-day period. If Seller does notify Buyer of any such objections by the end of that thirty-day period, and Seller and Buyer are unable to resolve their differences within fifteen (15) days thereafter, then Seller and Buyer shall instruct their respective accountants to, in good faith, use their best efforts to resolve such disputed items to their mutual satisfaction and to deliver a final Working Capital Statement and Closing Balance Sheet to Seller and Buyer as soon as possible. If Seller’s accountants and Buyer’s accountants are unable to resolve any such disputed items within thirty (30) days after receiving such instructions, then the remaining disputed items and the value attributable to them by each of Seller and Buyer shall be submitted to a mutually agreeable, nationally recognized accounting firm (“Arbiter”) for resolution, and the Arbiter shall be instructed to deliver a final Working Capital Statement and Closing Balance Sheet to Seller and Buyer as soon as possible. In the event that the Arbiter’s determination of the value of such disputed items is closer in value to the value attributed to such disputed items by Buyer, Seller shall pay the costs of the Arbiter. In the event that the Arbiter’s determination of the value of such disputed items is closer in value to the value attributed to such disputed items by Seller, Buyer shall pay the costs of the Arbiter.

2.5.2. Payment of Working Capital Adjustment.

2.9 Pass-Through Receivables.

(a) Buyer agrees that beginning on the date following the Closing Date and ending on the date that is 120 days after the Closing Date (the “Shortfall Date”), it shall use its reasonable best efforts consistent with its past Accounts Receivable collections practices to timely collect payment of the 31(a) Pass-Through Fees identified as Accounts Receivable of Brut as of the Closing Date (“Closing Pass-Through Receivables”) on a schedule delivered to Buyer by Seller at the Closing (the “Pass-Through Receivables Schedule”), which schedule shall be automatically amended to reflect as its Closing Pass-Through Receivables the Closing Pass-Through Receivables identified as such on the Closing Balance Sheet, as such Closing Balance Sheet may be amended or modified in accordance with Section 2.5.1. Buyer agrees to apply all payments received with respect to payors who owe payment on such Pass-Through Closing Receivables, first to the oldest invoice and thereafter in order to the next oldest invoice, unless the payor specifically designates that the payment be applied in some other way, in which case the payor’s instructions shall control.

(b) Within 20 business days following the Shortfall Date, Buyer shall furnish Seller with a written notice (the “Shortfall Notice”) setting forth in reasonable detail the calculation of the amount, if any, of the excess (the “Shortfall Amount”) of the Closing Pass-Through Receivables over the total amount of payments received in the period from the Closing Date through the Shortfall Date in respect thereof; provided, however, the Shortfall Amount, if any, shall be reduced by the amount of any specific reserves set forth on the Closing Balance Sheet directly related to any unpaid portion of the Closing Pass-Through Receivables; provided, further, Buyer will not provide a Shortfall Notice if the Shortfall Amount is less than $250,000.

(c) Seller shall notify Buyer in writing of any objections to the Shortfall Amount within thirty (30) days after Seller receives the Shortfall Notice. If Seller does not notify Buyer of any such objections by the end of that thirty-day period, then the Shortfall Amount shall be considered final on the last day of that thirty-day period. If Seller does notify Buyer of any such objections by the end of that thirty-day period, and Seller and Buyer are unable to resolve their differences within fifteen (15) days thereafter, then the Arbiter (or if no such Arbiter was appointed for the purposes of Section 2.5.1 or Section 9, one shall be appointed for the purposes of this Section 2.9 pursuant to the procedures set forth in Section 2.5.1) shall be instructed to determine the amount of such Shortfall Amount, if any, as soon as possible and such determination shall be conclusive and binding on the parties. If Seller does not object to Buyer’s calculation of the Shortfall Amount within the thirty (30) day period, the parties agree on a Shortfall Amount or the Arbiter determines that a Shortfall Amount exists, then within ten (10) business days after such Shortfall Amount is ultimately finalized in accordance with this Section 2.9 (i) Buyer shall assign the Closing Pass-Through Receivables that have not been collected at that time to Seller (or an Affiliate designated by Seller) for it to collect and (ii) Seller shall pay in cash to Buyer the amount of the Shortfall Amount. In the event that Buyer assigns any Closing Pass-Through Receivables to Seller (or its designated Affiliate), Buyer agrees that it will (x) provide Seller with all documentation and information regarding such Closing Pass-Through Receivables as may be reasonably requested by Seller and (y) promptly following receipt thereof, turn over to Seller any amounts received by Buyer or its Affiliates thereafter from the payor in respect of such Closing Pass-Through Receivables, up to and including the entire amount of the relevant Closing Pass-Through Receivables.

Brut is subject to NASD operating restrictions as set forth in its NASD membership agreement (“Brut Membership Agreement”), a true, complete and correct copy of which has been made available to Buyer. Brut is not in violation or breach in any material respect of the Brut Membership Agreement, and does not engage, and has not engaged, in any activities prohibited by the Brut Membership Agreement. The Brut ECN is classified under SEC rules as

an “alternative trading system” including any successor name thereof (“ATS”) and Brut has made appropriate filings with the SEC pursuant to Regulation ATS. The operations of Brut as a broker dealer, as such operations were and presently are conducted, and the status of Brut as a registered broker-dealer and the Brut ECN as an ATS, comply with, in all material respects, all federal, state and applicable foreign securities Laws, including the Exchange Act. Brut is a self-clearing broker but also executes certain securities transactions on a fully disclosed basis through the clearing firms identified on SCHEDULE 3.12. Except as set forth on SCHEDULE 3.12, no material disciplinary action or any formal investigation by the staff of the SEC, any state securities regulator, the NASD or any other Self-Regulatory Organization is pending or, to Seller’s knowledge, threatened against Brut and, to the Seller’s knowledge, no facts exist that could result in the same.

(b) Brut and, to Seller’s knowledge, each of the managers, officers, directors and employees of Brut who is required to be registered as a broker-dealer, a registered principal, a registered representative or in a similar capacity with any Governmental Body is duly registered as such and all such registrations are in full force and effect.

Brut is in compliance, in all material respects, with Rule 15c3-1 under the Exchange Act and any net capital requirements imposed by any Self-Regulating Organization of which it is a member.

(c) Brut does not extend or arrange credit that is governed by Regulation T of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, NASD Rule 2520 or the margin rules or similar rules of any Self-Regulatory Organization of which it is a member, including rules governing the extension or arrangement of credit to customers. None of the Toll Entities has or does extend or arrange credit for any customer within the meaning of Regulation U or Regulation X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.

(d) Brut has received a “no action” letter from the Division of Market Regulation of the SEC confirming, based on the facts set forth in such letter, that the ECN operated by Brut is an “electronic communications network” as defined under the Exchange Act and that the Division of Market Regulation will treat the participants in such ECN as in compliance with paragraph (c)(5)(i)(A) of Rule 11Ac1-1 because such ECN satisfies the requirement of paragraph (c)(5)(ii) of such Rule (such letter being referred to herein as the “No-Action Letter”). The facts recited in the No-Action Letter relating to the ECN of Brut were true and correct on the date provided and, since such date, no facts have changed which would result in its failure to satisfy the requirements of paragraph (c)(5)(ii) of Rule 11Ac1-1 such that it would no longer be treated in compliance with paragraph (c)(5)(i)(A). Neither Seller nor any Toll Entity is aware of any facts or circumstances that are reasonably likely to result in the No-Action Letter being revoked, withdrawn, superseded or suspended.

Each of the Toll Employee Benefit Plans, including the Savings Plan and the Flexible Compensation Plan of Parent (the “Parent Plans”), is maintained by Parent and contributed to by Brut. Other than the Toll Employee Benefit Plans, there are no Employee Benefit Plans in which employees of a Toll Entity are eligible for participation or benefits by virtue of their employment by a Toll Entity.

(b) No Toll Employee Benefit Plan is subject to Title IV of ERISA. No liability under Title IV of ERISA has been incurred by any Toll Entity or any ERISA Affiliate that has not been satisfied in full, and no condition exists that presents a material risk to any Toll Entity or any ERISA Affiliate of incurring any liability under such Title, other than liability for premiums due to the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation, which payments have been or will be made when due.

(c) Each Toll Employee Benefit Plan that is required to be “qualified” within the meaning of Section 401(a) of the Code is so qualified.

If any such binding agreement shall terminate prior to the completion of the sale of such Competing Business, the SunGard Entities shall cease conducting such business or enter into a new binding agreement for its disposition within three (3) months after the date of such termination. Under no circumstances shall the restriction set forth in this Section 5.11 in any way limit Parent or any of its Affiliates from: (i) using the ECN Components to develop, facilitate, enhance or operate an order execution, matching system or other functionality for a Person that is not engaged in a Competing Business, (ii) subject to 5.11(b) employing, engaging or utilizing any Continuing Employee in the development, facilitation, enhancement or operation of an order execution or matching system for a Person that is not engaged in a Competing Business, or (iii) using, providing, modifying, developing, maintaining, enhancing, licensing, operating, facilitating, hosting, selling, distributing or exploiting the BRASS System (which may include automated execution and trade reporting functionality solely at the election of the broker dealer using such service and not as a Competing Business), UMA, U2, X2 or any products or services of Parent or its Affiliates (as a whole or any portion thereof, and including current products or services and those yet to be developed) to any Person, other than the ECN Components. Neither Parent nor any of its Affiliates will engage in any activities in violation of this Section 5.11 with any Person that, while not currently a Competing Business, to the actual knowledge of Parent or the applicable Affiliate, would become a Competing Business within a reasonable period after the provision of such products or services. By the Closing Date, Seller shall deposit into escrow with a standard escrow provider for a period of three (3) years a copy of the Brut ECN Software, the BRASS System, UMA, U2 and X2, in each case, as such Software exists as of the date of this Agreement and an independent party hired by Buyer, reasonably acceptable to Seller, may have reasonable access to such escrowed Software in order to facilitate compliance with the terms of this Agreement.

(d) It is the intent and understanding of each party hereto that if, in any action before any court or Governmental Body legally empowered to enforce this Section 5.11, any term, restriction, covenant, or promise is found to be unreasonable and for that reason unenforceable, then such term, restriction, covenant, or promise shall not thereby be terminated but that it shall be deemed modified to the extent necessary to make it enforceable by such court or Governmental Body and, if it cannot be so modified, that it shall be deemed amended to delete therefrom such provision or portion adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable, such modification or amendment in any event to apply only with respect to the operation of this Section 5.11 in the particular jurisdiction in which such adjudication is made.

38

8.2 Further Assurances. At any time and from time to time after the Closing Date, at Buyer’s request and without further consideration, Seller shall promptly execute and deliver all such further agreements, certificates, instruments and documents and perform such further actions as Buyer may reasonably request, in order to fully consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and fully carry out the purposes and intent of this Agreement.

8.4 Claims. Except as provided in this Agreement, Seller shall administer and retain liability, if any, for all Claims against the Toll Entities, including any claims for severance pay, that directly arise out of or that are directly attributable to events occurring prior to the Closing Date, and Buyer shall administer and assume liability for all claims of any kind which arise directly out of or that are directly attributable to events occurring on or after the Closing Date; provided, however, that workers’ compensation claims shall accrue and any Obligation with respect thereto shall be assigned based on the date the event giving rise to such claims occurs.

If any Seller Obligation shall not be paid when due, Parent shall become liable to Buyer for such obligation and Buyer may recover from Parent the full amount of any such Seller Obligation payable on demand. No provision hereof shall in any manner restrict the rights and remedies of Seller or Buyer under this Agreement and the other documents executed in connection therewith. Parent shall be liable to Buyer under this Agreement only to the extent that Seller is liable thereunder and Parent shall have the right to assert as a defense to its Obligations under this Guarantee any defense of any kind or nature that Seller could assert with respect to the payment of the Seller Obligations, whether or not Seller has in fact asserted any such defenses.

Pro Forma Returns shall be prepared on the same basis as Pre-Closing Returns under Section 9.1. Pro Forma Returns shall not be filed, but Seller shall pay to Buyer the amount of Taxes due shown thereon and shall pay all fees and expenses associated with preparing the Pro Forma Returns. Buyer shall prepare or cause to be prepared the Full Year Returns, and shall cause each Toll Entity to timely file the Full year Returns and pay the amount of Taxes due shown thereon.

Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the other party’s

request) the provision of records and information that are reasonably relevant to any such audit or Proceeding.

9.5 Tax Indemnity

(i) any Taxes of each of the Toll Entities arising with respect to any period ending on or before the Closing Date and the portion of any other period ending on the Closing Date;

(ii) any Taxes or Losses incurred or suffered by Buyer as a result of or arising out of any breach or any representation or warranty of Seller contained in Section 3.15;

(iii) any Taxes imposed on Brut Inc as a member of the “affiliated group” (within the meaning of Section 1504(a) of the Code) of which Seller (or any predecessor or successor thereof) is the common parent that arises under Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-6(a) and any similar provisions under state or local Law including Brut Inc as a member in a “unitary business” as that term has been defined in U.S. Supreme Court jurisprudence; and

(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the obligations of the parties set forth in this Section 9 shall: (i) remain in full force and effect until thirty (30) days following the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations (taking into account all extensions thereof); and (ii) not be subject to Section 10. In the event of a conflict between this Section 9 and any other provision of this Agreement, this Section 9 shall govern and control.

9.6 Transfer Taxes. Buyer and Seller shall each be responsible for one half of any Transfer Taxes. Buyer and Seller will reasonably cooperate with each other in the filing of any Tax Returns required to be filed in connection with such Transfer Taxes and in obtaining any applicable exemption from or reduction of such Transfer Taxes. The party responsible for filing any such Tax Return described in the preceding sentence (the “Filing Party”) shall provide the other party (the “Non-Filing Party”) with a pro-forma copy of such Tax Return and written notice of the amount of such Transfer Tax owed by the Non-Filing Party to the Filing Party, which amount shall be calculated in accordance with this Section 9.6.

Any indemnification payment required under this Section 9 shall be made within ten (10) days of the agreement by the parties or the decision by the Arbiter, as the case may be, with interest from the date on which the disputed amount was required to be paid to the relevant taxing authority to the date of payment. The foregoing shall not limit or relieve Seller of its obligation to indemnify Buyer pursuant to Section 9.5.

SECTION 10. SURVIVAL; INDEMNIFICATION

10.1 Survival of Representations, Warranties and Covenants.

10.3 Indemnification by Buyer. Subject to Section 10.5, from and after the Closing Date, Buyer shall indemnify and hold harmless Seller and its Affiliates and their respective directors, managers, officers, stockholders, members, employees, controlling persons, representatives, agents and each of their respective successors and assigns (each, a “Seller Indemnitee” and collectively, the “Seller Indemnitees”) from and against, and pay or reimburse Seller Indemnitees for, and in respect of, any and all Losses incurred or suffered by any Seller Indemnitee as a result of or arising out of (a) any breach of any warranty or representation made

by Buyer in Section 4 or (b) a breach or failure to perform any covenant or agreement on the part of Buyer under this Agreement.

10.4 Indemnification Procedures.

(a) In the event that a party (the “Indemnitee”) shall become aware of any claim, Proceeding or other matter (a “Claim”) in respect of which another party (the “Indemnitor”) agreed to indemnify the Indemnitee pursuant to this Agreement, the Indemnitor shall give prompt notice (“Indemnification Notice”) thereof to the Indemnitor. The Indemnification Notice shall specify whether the Claim arises as a result of a claim by another Person against the Indemnitee (a “Third Party Claim”) or whether the Claim does not so arise, and shall describe the Claim in reasonable detail (to the extent the information is available) and the amount of the Claim, if known. Failure to give prompt notice of a Claim shall not affect the Indemnitor’s obligations under this Section 10, except to the extent such failure has prejudiced in any material respect the Indemnitor as a result of such failure to give prompt notice.

(b) With respect to any Third Party Claim, upon receipt of the Indemnification Notice, the Indemnitor shall, at its expense and through counsel of its choice, promptly assume and have sole control over the litigation, defense or settlement (the “Defense”) of the Third Party Claim, except that (i) the Indemnitee may, at its option and expense and through counsel of its choice, participate in (but not control) the Defense; and (ii) the Indemnitor shall not consent to any Judgment, or agree to any settlement, that would have an adverse impact on Indemnitee, without the Indemnitee’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. In any event, the Indemnitor and the Indemnitee shall fully cooperate with each other in connection with the Defense including by furnishing all available documentary or other evidence as is reasonably requested by the other. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnitee shall have the right to employ one separate counsel at the Indemnifying Party’s expense if the named parties to such Proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both such Indemnitee and Indemnitor, and such Indemnitee shall have been advised by counsel that a conflict of interest would exist if the same counsel were to represent such Indemnitee and Indemnitor (in which case, if such Indemnitee notifies the Indemnitor in writing that it elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the Indemnitor, the Indemnitor shall not have the right to assume the Defense thereof).

(c) In the event the Indemnitor fails, within twenty (20) days of receipt of an Indemnification Notice, to undertake to defend, contest, or otherwise protect against any such Claim, or is not defending such Claim in good faith, the Indemnitee may, but will not be obligated to, defend, contest, or otherwise protect against the same, and, upon the consent of Indemnitor, not to be unreasonably withheld, make any compromise or settlement thereof and recover the entire costs thereof from the Indemnitor, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, and expenses and all amounts paid as a result of such Claim or the compromise or settlement thereof.

(d) Except with respect to expenses that are to be paid by the Indemnitor pursuant to Section 10.4(b), all of which expenses shall be paid by Indemnitor as incurred, all amounts owed by the Indemnitor to the Indemnitee (if any) shall be paid in full within thirty (30) business days after a final Judgment (without further right of appeal) determining the amount owed is rendered, or after a final settlement or agreement as to the amount owed is executed.

43

10.5 Limits on Indemnitor’s Liability. The Indemnitor’s liability under this Section 10 shall be limited as follows.

(a) Threshold. Except as set forth in Section 10.6, the Indemnitor shall not be liable in respect of any indemnification obligation arising under Section 10.2 or Section 10.3, as the case may be, unless the aggregate cumulative amount of Losses claimed thereunder exceeds Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000) (the “Basket Amount”), in which case the Seller or the Buyer, as the case may be, shall be liable only for the excess of the aggregate amount of all such Losses claimed thereunder over the Basket Amount; provided, however, that the Basket Amount and the limitations set forth in 10.5(c) shall not apply to Losses for any breach of the representation and warranty contained in Section 3.1(b) or Section 3.3(c) and the Basket Amount shall not apply to Losses for any breach of a representation or warranty for which amendments or modifications thereof pursuant to Section 5.3 have been disregarded pursuant to Section 10.2(a).

(b) Net of Recovery. Payments by Indemnitor on any Loss pursuant to Section 10.4(d) shall be limited to the amount of any Loss that remains after deducting therefrom (i) any insurance proceeds and any indemnity, contribution or similar payment recoverable by the Indemnitee (or any of its Affiliates) from any third party with respect thereto and (ii) any Tax benefit to Indemnitee (or any of its Affiliates) with respect thereto. The Indemnitee or any of its Affiliates shall be considered to have realized a Tax benefit only when, after utilizing all deductions, losses and credits otherwise available to it, there was a decrease in the cumulative Taxes payable by it as a result of such Loss.

(c) Ceiling. Except as set forth in Section 10.6, in no event shall (i) the Seller’s aggregate obligation to indemnify Buyer Indemnitees under Section 10.2 or (ii) Buyer’s aggregate obligation to indemnify Seller Indemnitees under Section 10.3, exceed twenty (20) percent of the Purchase Price.

(d) Time Periods. With respect to any indemnification matter under this Section 10, the Indemnitor shall have no liability unless the Indemnitee gives an Indemnification Notice with respect thereto within the applicable survival period provided for in Section 10.1.

10.6 Excepted Losses. The limitations set forth in Section 10.5(a) and Section 10.5(c) and, solely in the case of Section 10.6(a), the limitation of Section 10.5(d), shall not apply in the case of any Losses arising under Section 10.2 to the extent (but only to the extent) of those Losses suffered or incurred by Buyer Indemnitee with respect to or in connection with such Claims that are finally adjudicated to have resulted from (a) a Toll Entity’s intentional misrepresentation or fraud or (b) the breach by Seller of any warranty or representation made by Seller in Section 3.1, Section 3.2(a) and Section 3.3 or (c) the breach by Seller or Parent of their covenants contained in Section 5.11 (each, an “Excepted Loss” and collectively “Excepted Losses”). In the case of Excepted Losses, (i) Seller’s aggregate liability for such Losses shall be limited to the Purchase Price, and (ii) there shall not be a Basket Amount.

10.7 Sole Remedy. Buyer hereby acknowledges and agrees that its sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any and all claims relating to the subject matter of this Agreement shall be pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Section 10, except as provided in Section 9.5; provided, however, that nothing contained in this Agreement shall (i) prevent any

Person from pursuing remedies as may be available to it under applicable Law in the event of any party’s failure to comply with its indemnification obligations hereunder, or (ii) limit the ability of a Party to seek injunctive or similar relief.

SECTION 11. TERMINATION

(c) Provided Buyer is not in material breach of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements in this Agreement, by Buyer by written notice to Seller if there has been a material misrepresentation or material breach of representation, warranty, covenant or agreement on the part of Seller in the representations, warranties and covenants of Seller set forth in this Agreement and such breach has not been cured within 30 days of such written notice; or

(d) By Seller or by Buyer, by written notice to the other party, if the Closing hereunder has not been consummated on or before July 31, 2004 (the “Outside Date”); provided, however, that the Outside Date may be extended from time to time by not more than 150 days in the aggregate by any party by written notice to the other parties if the Closing shall not have been consummated as a result of the conditions set forth in Section 6.1(d) or Section 6.2(d) failing to have been satisfied and the extending party reasonably believes that the relevant consents, waivers, approvals, licenses and authorizations will be obtained during such extension period; provided, further, that (i) Seller shall not be entitled to terminate pursuant to this Section 11.1(d) if the Closing shall not have been consummated within such time period by reason of the failure of Seller or Parent to perform in all material respects any of its covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement and (ii) Buyer shall not be entitled to terminate pursuant to this Section 11.1(d) if the Closing shall not have been consummated within such time period by reason of Buyer’s failure to perform in all material respects any of its covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement.
