Asset.

Effective Time, NCR and Teradata shall jointly estimate the amount

later than October 31, 2007. To the extent the Final Amount is
greater than $200 million, Teradata shall pay an amount equal to
the excess to NCR no later than October 31, 2007. In the event
of a dispute of the Final Amount by NCR, NCR shall give notice
thereof no later than October 31, 2007. The parities shall
cooperate in an effort to resolve any such dispute. If they are
unable to resolve any such dispute, either party may submit the
matter for resolution to Deloitte & Touche (or if
Deloitte & Touche is not willing or able to serve, to any
other nationally recognized independent accounting firm). The
decision of such firm shall be final and binding upon the parties
and shall thereafter represent the Final Amount for purposes
hereof. The fees and expenses of the firm shall be borne by the
party whose estimate of the cash and cash equivalents of the

the different Groups and after the settlement of any true-ups with
respect to any of the foreign country asset purchase agreements. As
a result, in the event that any such settlements or adjustments are
not completed for administrative or other reasons as of prior to

sub-sublease ( e.g. , rent and term).
(b) (i) Except as
otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement or any Ancillary
Agreement, all tenant improvements, fixtures, furniture, office
equipment, servers, private branch exchanges, artwork and other
tangible property (other than equipment subject to capital or
operating equipment leases, which will be transferred or retained
based on whether the associated capital or operating equipment
lease is or is not a Teradata Contract) located as of the date
hereof on any real property that is covered by any Ancillary
Agreement referred to in Section 2.5(a), including the
Schedules thereto,
16
shall, except to the extent
expressly set forth on a Schedule referred to in
Section 2.5(a), be transferred or retained as
follows:
(ii) Deeds and
Assignments. Subject to clause (v), in the case of any real
property or leasehold interests covered by an Ancillary Agreement
that is a deed or lease assignment and assumption, all such
tangible property will be transferred to the transferee or assignee
of the applicable real property or leasehold interest;
(iii) Shared Facilities
without Third Party Leases. Subject to clause (v), in the case
of any real property or leasehold interests covered by an Ancillary
Agreement that is a lease, all such tangible property will be
retained by the lessor under the applicable lease, except that any
such tangible property (including furniture and artwork but other
than tenant improvements, fixtures) used exclusively by the lessee
shall be transferred to, or retained by, the lessee.
(iv) Shared Facilities
with Third Party Leases. Subject to clause (v), in the case of
any real property or leasehold interests covered by an Ancillary
Agreement that is a sublease or sub-sublease of a third party
lease, all such tangible property will be retained by the sublessor
or sub-sublessor, respectively, under the applicable sublease or
sub-sublease, except that any such tangible property (including
furniture and artwork but other than tenant improvements,
fixtures), used exclusively by the sublessee or sub-sublessee,
respectively, shall be transferred to, or retained by, such
sublessee or sub-sublessee.
(v) Property Used to
Perform Ancillary Agreements. The provisions of clauses
(i) through (iv) above shall not apply to any IT
equipment or other Assets that are contemplated by Ancillary
Agreement to be used by a member of a Group in the performance of
its obligations thereunder and any such IT equipment or other
Assets shall be the property of the party providing services or
performing other obligations.
In the case of this Section 2.5(b),
all determinations as to exclusive use by any member of a
Group shall be made without regard to infrequent and immaterial use
by the members of any other Group, if the transfer of such Asset
to, or the retention of such Asset by, such first Group would not
interfere in any material respect with either the business or
operations of any such other Group. Notwithstanding the foregoing
provisions of this Section 2.5(b), any artwork (other than
artwork on loan from the NCR archives) located as of the date
hereof in the private office of any senior manager or officer of
any Group may, at the election of such senior manager or officer,
be retained by, or transferred to, the Group by which such
executive is employed as of the Effective Time.
(c) In the case of any real
property or leasehold interest that is covered by
Section 2.5(b)(i) and any of Section 2.5(b)(ii),
(iii) or (iv), all such tangible property shall first be
allocated pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.5(b)(i) and
thereafter pursuant to whichever of such other clauses is
applicable.
2.6 Documents
Relating to Other Transfers of Assets and Assumption of
Liabilities. In furtherance of the assignment, transfer and
conveyance of Teradata Assets and
17
the assumption of Teradata Liabilities
set forth in Section 2.1(a) and (b), on or prior to the
Effective Time, (i) each of NCR and Teradata shall execute and
deliver, and each shall cause its respective Subsidiaries to
execute and deliver, such bills of sale, stock powers, certificates
of title, assignments of contracts and other instruments of
transfer, conveyance and assignment as and to the extent necessary
to evidence the transfer, conveyance and assignment of all of
NCR’s, Teradata’s and their respective
Subsidiaries’ right, title and interest in and to the
Teradata Assets to Teradata and (ii) Teradata shall execute
and deliver, to NCR and its Subsidiaries such bills of sale, stock
powers, certificates of title, assumptions of contracts and other
instruments of assumption as and to the extent necessary to
evidence the valid and effective assumption of the Teradata
Liabilities by Teradata.
2.7 Other Ancillary
Agreements. On or prior to the Effective Time, each of NCR and
Teradata will execute and deliver all Ancillary Agreements to which
it is a party.
2.8 The Non-U.S.
Plan. Each of NCR and Teradata shall take, and shall cause each
member of its respective Group to take, such action as reasonably
necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated by the
Non-U.S. Plan (whether prior to or after the Effective
Time).
2.9 Disclaimer of
Representations and Warranties. Each of NCR (on behalf of
itself and each member of the NCR Group), and Teradata (on behalf
of itself and each member of the Teradata Group) understands and
agrees that, except as expressly set forth herein or in any
Ancillary Agreement, no party to this Agreement, any Ancillary
Agreement or any other agreement or document contemplated by this
Agreement, any Ancillary Agreement or otherwise, is representing or
warranting in any way as to the Assets, businesses or Liabilities
transferred or assumed as contemplated hereby or thereby, as to any
consents or approvals (including Governmental Approvals or
Consents) required in connection therewith, as to the value or
freedom from any Security Interests of, or any other matter
concerning, any Assets of such party, or as to the absence of any
defenses or right of setoff or freedom from counterclaim with
respect to any claim or other Asset, including any accounts
receivable, of any party, or as to the legal sufficiency of any
assignment, document or instrument delivered hereunder to convey
title to any Asset or thing of value upon the execution, delivery
and filing hereof or thereof. Except as may expressly be set forth
herein or in any Ancillary Agreement, all such Assets are being
transferred on an “as is,” “where is” basis
(and, in the case of any real property, by means of a quitclaim or
similar form deed or conveyance) and the respective transferees
shall bear the economic and legal risks that any conveyance shall
prove to be insufficient to vest in the transferee good and
marketable title, free and clear of any Security
Interest.
2.10 Governmental
Approvals and Consents. (a) To the extent that the
Separation requires any Governmental Approvals or Consents, the
parties will use their reasonable best efforts to obtain any such
Governmental Approvals and Consents.
(b) If and to the extent that
the valid, complete and perfected transfer or assignment (or
novation of any federal government contract) to the Teradata Group
of any Teradata Assets (or from the Teradata Group of any
Non-Teradata Assets) would be a violation of applicable laws or
require any Consent or Governmental Approval in connection with the
Separation or the Distribution, then, unless NCR shall otherwise
determine, the transfer or
18
assignment to or from the Teradata
Group, as the case may be, of such Teradata Assets or Non-Teradata
Assets, respectively, shall be automatically deemed deferred and
any such purported transfer or assignment shall be null and void
until such time as all legal impediments are removed and/or such
Consents or Governmental Approvals have been obtained.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, such Asset shall be deemed a
Teradata Asset for purposes of determining whether any Liability is
a Teradata Liability.
(c) If the transfer or
assignment of any Assets intended to be transferred or assigned
hereunder, including pursuant to the Non-U.S. Plan, is not
consummated prior to or at the Effective Time, whether as a result
of the provisions of Section 2.10(b) or for any other reason,
then the Person retaining such Asset shall thereafter hold such
Asset for the use and benefit, insofar as reasonably possible, of
the Person entitled thereto (at the expense of the Person entitled
thereto). In addition, the Person retaining such Asset shall take
such other actions as may be reasonably requested by the Person to
whom such Asset is to be transferred in order to place such Person,
insofar as reasonably possible, in the same position as if such
Asset had been transferred as contemplated hereby and so that all
the benefits and burdens relating to such Teradata Assets (or such
Non-Teradata Assets, as the case may be), including possession,
use, risk of loss, potential for gain, and dominion, control and
command over such Assets, are to inure from and after the Effective
Time to the Teradata Group (or the NCR Group, as the case may be).
Without limiting the foregoing, at the reasonable request
