(b) If the volume of transactions for a specific Service provided to Imagistics exceeds the level which historically has been utilized by the Imagistics Group during the twelve months prior to the date hereof and, as a result, requires human or equipment resources in excess of the level of resources allocated to such Service by Pitney Bowes, the additional cost associated with the increased volume shall be included in the Service Costs.

In connection with the invoicing described in this Section 3.04(a), Pitney Bowes shall provide to Imagistics the same billing data and level of detail as it customarily provided to the Imagistics Group prior to the Distribution Date and such other data as may be reasonably requested by Imagistics. (b) Imagistics agrees to pay on or before 30 days after the date on which Pitney Bowes invoices or notifies Imagistics of the Service Costs (or the next Business Day, if such day is not a Business Day) (each, a "Payment Date") by wire transfer of immediately available funds payable to the order of Pitney Bowes all amounts invoiced by Pitney Bowes pursuant to Section 3.04(a) during the preceding calendar month.

(c) Imagistics agrees to pay on or before 30 days after the date on which it is invoiced or otherwise notified (or on or before any other due date previously established) any amount owed by Imagistics to any third party vendor in relation to any Service provided hereunder. In the event that Imagistics fails to pay any such amount due in a timely manner and Pitney Bowes becomes liable for such amount, Pitney Bowes may pay any such amount to any vendor and Imagistics shall be obligated to pay Pitney Bowes the full amount due plus any interest due on such amount and any delinquency or other fees accrued. Article 4 THE SERVICES Section 4.01 General Standard of Service. (a) Except as otherwise agreed with Imagistics or described in this Agreement or the Schedules hereto, and provided that Pitney Bowes is not restricted by contract with third parties or by applicable law, Pitney Bowes agrees that the nature, quality, service level and standard of care applicable to the delivery of the Services hereunder shall be substantially the same as that of the Services which Pitney Bowes provides from time to time throughout its businesses. If Pitney Bowes and Imagistics do not have comparable operations with respect to a certain Service, then the service level shall be consistent with the standards provided to Imagistics for the twelve months prior to the Distribution Date. Pitney Bowes shall use its reasonable efforts to ensure 7 that the nature and quality of Services provided to Imagistics employees either by Pitney Bowes directly or through administrators under contract shall be undifferentiated as compared with the same services provided to or on behalf of Pitney Bowes employees under Pitney Bowes Plans. Subject to Pitney Bowes' express obligations under this Agreement, the management of and control over the provision of the Services shall reside solely with Pitney Bowes. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, all labor matters relating to employees of Pitney Bowes and its Subsidiaries (including, without limitation, employees involved in the provision of Services to Imagistics) shall be within the exclusive control of Pitney Bowes, and Imagistics shall not take any action affecting such matters. (b) If Imagistics becomes aware of a material deficiency in the performance of a Service provided or procured by Pitney Bowes or one of its subsidiaries (a "Service Level Breach"), Imagistics may deliver a written notice of the Service Level Breach to the Service Provider. Upon receipt of such notice, Pitney Bowes shall use it reasonable best efforts to remedy the Service Level Breach as soon as reasonably possible. Section 4.02 Personnel. Subject to Schedule 1D hereof, Pitney Bowes shall, at its own expense, employ and retain staff, and contract with third parties and other vendors with a level of experience, skill, diligence and expertise consistent with Pitney Bowes' normal business practices, needed to perform the Services. The provisions of this paragraph shall not apply to contracts entered into by Pitney Bowes and third parties prior to the Distribution Date. Section 4.03 Systems Support. In each instance where Pitney Bowes provides application, technical or infrastructure support to Imagistics under this Agreement ("Systems Support"), such Systems Support shall, except as limited by this Agreement and the Schedules hereto, be provided in a scope and manner substantially consistent with past practices. Section 4.04 Delegation. Subject to Section 4.01(a), Imagistics hereby delegates to Pitney Bowes final, binding, and exclusive authority, responsibility, and discretion to interpret and construe the provisions of employee welfare benefit plans in which Imagistics has elected to participate and which are administered by Pitney Bowes under this Agreement (collectively, "Employee Benefit Plans"). Pitney Bowes may further delegate such authority to plan administrators to: (i) provide administrative and other services; (ii) reach factually supported conclusions consistent with the terms of the Employee Benefit Plans; (iii) make a full and fair review of each claim denial and decision related to the provision of benefits provided or arranged for under 8 the Employee Benefit Plans, pursuant to the requirements of ERISA, if within 60 days after receipt of the notice of denial, a claimant requests in writing a review for reconsideration of such decisions. The plan administrator shall notify the claimant in writing of its decision on review. Such notice shall satisfy all ERISA requirements relating thereto; and (iv) notify the claimant in writing of its decision on review. Section 4.05. Limitation of Liability. (a) Imagistics agrees that none of the members of the Pitney Bowes Group and their respective directors, officers, agents, and employees (each, a "Pitney Bowes Indemnified Person") shall have any liability, whether direct or indirect, in contract or tort or otherwise, to any Imagistics Entity or any other Person for or in connection with the Services rendered or to be rendered by any Pitney Bowes Indemnified Person pursuant to this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or any Pitney Bowes Indemnified Person's actions or inactions in connection with any such Services or transactions, except for damages which have resulted from such Pitney Bowes Indemnified Person's gross negligence or willful misconduct in connection with any such Services, actions or inactions. (b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 4.05(a), none of the Pitney Bowes Group shall be liable for any special, indirect, incidental, or consequential damages of any kind whatsoever (including, without limitation, attorneys' fees) in any way due to, resulting from or arising in connection with any of the Services or the performance of or failure to perform Pitney Bowes' obligations under this Agreement. This disclaimer applies without limitation to claims arising from the provision of the Services or any failure or delay in connection therewith; to claims for lost profits; regardless of the form of action, whether in contract, tort (including negligence), strict liability, or otherwise; and regardless of whether such damages are foreseeable or whether Pitney Bowes has been advised of the possibility of such damages. (c) None of the Pitney Bowes Group shall have any liability to any Imagistics Entity or any other Person for failure to perform Pitney Bowes' obligations under this Agreement or otherwise, where such failure to perform is not caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Pitney Bowes Entity providing such Services and such failure to perform similarly affects the Pitney Bowes Group receiving such Services and does not have a disproportionately adverse effect on the Imagistics Group, taken as a whole. (d) In addition to the foregoing, Imagistics agrees that it shall, in all circumstances, use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate and otherwise minimize its damages and those of the other Imagistics Entities, whether direct or indirect, due to, resulting from or arising in connection with any failure by Pitney Bowes to comply fully with its obligations under this Agreement. 9 (e) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.05, in the event of a substantial and continuing failure on the part of Pitney Bowes to provide or procure any material Services, where such failure is reasonably expected to have a material adverse effect on Imagistics and its Subsidiaries, considered as a whole, Imagistics shall be entitled to seek specific performance to cause Pitney Bowes to provide or procure such Services. Section 4.06. Indemnification of Pitney Bowes by Imagistics. Imagistics agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Pitney Bowes Indemnified Person from and against any damages, and to reimburse each Pitney Bowes Indemnified Person for all reasonable expenses as they are incurred in investigating, preparing, pursuing, or defending any claim, action, proceeding, or investigation, whether or not in connection with pending or threatened litigation and whether or not any Pitney Bowes Indemnified Person is a party (collectively, "Actions"), arising out of or in connection with Services rendered or to be rendered by any Pitney Bowes Indemnified Person pursuant to this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or any Pitney Bowes Indemnified Person's actions or inactions in connection with any such Services or transactions; provided that Imagistics shall not be responsible for any damages of any Pitney Bowes Indemnified Person that have resulted from such Pitney Bowes Indemnified Person's gross negligence or willful misconduct in connection with any of the advice, actions, inactions, or Services referred to above (it being understood and agreed that the provision by any Pitney Bowes Entity of any of the Services contemplated by Schedule 2 hereof without obtaining the consent of any party to any contract or agreement to which any Pitney Bowes Entity is a party as of the date hereof shall not constitute gross negligence or wilful misconduct by any Pitney Bowes Entity; provided that the relevant Pitney Bowes Entity has used commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the relevant consent). Sections 4.04 and 4.05 of the Distribution Agreement shall apply in the event that any indemnification is sought pursuant to this Section 4.06. Section 4.07. Indemnification of Imagistics by Pitney Bowes. Pitney Bowes agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each member of the Imagistics Group and their respective directors, officers, agents, and employees (each, a "Imagistics Indemnified Person") from and against any damages, and shall reimburse each Imagistics Indemnified Person for all reasonable expenses as they are incurred in investigating, preparing, or defending any Action, arising out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of any Pitney Bowes Indemnified Person in connection with the Services rendered or to be rendered pursuant to this Agreement. Sections 4.04 and 4.05 of the Distribution Agreement shall apply in the event that any indemnification is sought pursuant to this Section 4.07. Section 4.08. Further Indemnification. To the extent that any other Person has agreed to indemnify any Pitney Bowes Indemnified Person or to hold a Pitney Bowes Indemnified Person harmless and such Person provides services to Pitney Bowes or any affiliate of Pitney Bowes relating directly or indirectly to any 10 employee plan or benefit arrangement for which Benefit Services are provided under this Agreement, Pitney Bowes shall exercise reasonable efforts (a) to make such agreement applicable to any Imagistics Indemnified Person so that each Imagistics Indemnified Person is held harmless or indemnified to the same extent as any Pitney Bowes Indemnified Person or (b) otherwise make available to each Imagistics Indemnified Person the benefits of such agreement. Section 4.09. Notice of Certain Matters. If Imagistics at any time believes that Pitney Bowes is not in full compliance with its obligations under Section 4.01(a) of this Agreement, Imagistics shall so notify Pitney Bowes in writing promptly (but not later than 30 days) after becoming aware of such possible non-compliance by Pitney Bowes. Failure to notify Pitney Bowes within 30 days shall not relieve Pitney Bowes of liability except to the extent Pitney Bowes is actually prejudiced due to such failure to notify. Such notice (a "Non-Compliance Notice") shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for Imagistics' belief as well as Imagistics' view as to the steps to be taken by Pitney Bowes to address the possible non-compliance. For the 30 days after receipt of such a notice, appropriate representatives of Pitney Bowes and Imagistics shall work in good faith to develop a plan to resolve the matters referred to in the Non-Compliance Notice. In the event such matters are not resolved through such discussions, Imagistics may elect to terminate Pitney Bowes' obligation to provide or procure, and its obligation to purchase, the Service or Services referred to in its Non-Compliance Notice in accordance with. In the event such matters are resolved through such discussions and Imagistics does not elect to terminate such Service or Services within 60 days of the end of the 30-day period referred to in the third sentence of this Section 4.09, Imagistics shall not be entitled to deliver another Non-Compliance Notice or pursue other remedies with respect to same or any substantially similar matter so long as Pitney Bowes complies in all material respects with the terms of such resolution. In no event shall any termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 4.09 limit or affect Imagistics' right to seek remedies in accordance with Section 4.08 in respect of any breach by Pitney Bowes of any of its obligations under this Agreement prior to such termination. Article 5 TERM AND TERMINATION Section 5.01. Term. Except as otherwise provided in this Article 5, in Section 9.05 or as otherwise agreed in writing by the parties, Pitney Bowes shall provide (through one or more of its Affiliates and/or outside service providers to the extent utilized by Imagistics as of the date hereof or engaged hereafter with the prior written consent of Imagistics) to the Imagistics Group, the Non-IT Services and any additional services as identified and agreed upon by Pitney Bowes and Imagistics pursuant to Section 2.03 for an initial term of twelve months from the 11 Distribution Date (the "Transition Period").

The Transition Period shall be deemed to be extended, as and for the period needed but, in any event, not to exceed six months, on account of any one of the following: (i) a requirement by a Government Authority; (ii) at the discretion of the non-breaching party, any failure by Imagistics or Pitney Bowes, as the case may be, to perform any action required on its part under this agreement including the schedules hereto, but only to the extent of such failure; or (iii) the inability of the parties to achieve a suitable replacement for provision of the Services as set forth in any schedule hereto after applying reasonable efforts, provided that, to the extent the Transition Period is extended pursuant to clause (i) or (iii), in addition to the amounts otherwise due pursuant to Section 3.01 of this Agreement, Imagistics shall pay all costs actually incurred by reason of the extension. Pitney Bowes shall make commercially reasonable efforts (which shall not require it to incur any out of pocket costs) to minimize the costs referred to in the immediately preceding proviso. Section 5.02. Termination. (a) Except as otherwise provided in any Schedule hereto, Imagistics may (i) from time to time terminate this Agreement with respect to one or more of the Services, in whole or in part, upon giving at least 180 days' prior notice to Pitney Bowes or (ii) terminate this Agreement at any time upon 180 days' written notice. (b) Pitney Bowes may terminate any Service at any time if Imagistics shall have failed to perform any of its material obligations under this Agreement relating to any such Service, Pitney Bowes has notified Imagistics in writing of such failure and such failure shall have continued for a period of 60 days after receipt by Imagistics of written notice of such failure. (c) Imagistics may terminate any Service at any time if Pitney Bowes shall have failed to perform any of its material obligations under this Agreement relating to any such Service, Imagistics has notified Pitney Bowes in writing of such failure, and such failure shall have continued for a period of 60 days after receipt by Pitney Bowes of written notice of such failure.

(a) Other than as required by law, upon termination of any Service pursuant to Section 5.02, or upon termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms, Pitney Bowes shall have no further obligation to provide the terminated Service (or any Service, in the case of termination of this Agreement) and Imagistics shall have no obligation to pay any fees relating to such Services or make any other payments hereunder; provided that notwithstanding such termination, (i) Imagistics shall remain liable to Pitney 12 Bowes for fees owed and payable in respect of Services provided prior to the effective date of the termination; (ii) Pitney Bowes shall continue to charge Imagistics for administrative and program costs relating to benefits paid after but incurred prior to the termination of any Service and other services required to be provided after the termination of such Service and Imagistics shall be obligated to pay such expenses in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; and (iii) the provisions of Articles 4, 5, 6 and 8.01 shall survive any such termination indefinitely. All program and administrative costs attributable to employees of any of the Imagistics Group for Pitney Bowes Plans that relate to any period after the effective date of any such termination shall be for the account of Imagistics. (b) Following termination of this Agreement with respect to any Service, Pitney Bowes and Imagistics agree to cooperate in providing for an orderly transition of such Service to Imagistics or to a successor service provider. Without limiting the foregoing, Pitney Bowes agrees to (i) provide, within 60 days of the termination, copies in a usable format designated by Pitney Bowes, of all records relating directly or indirectly to benefit determinations of Imagistics employees, including but not limited to compensation and service records, correspondence, plan interpretive policies, plan procedures, administration guidelines, minutes, or any data or records required to be maintained by law and (ii) work with Imagistics in developing a transition schedule.
