SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED
EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

          THIS SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) is entered into as of September 30, 2009, by and between FIDELITY NATIONAL INFORMATION SERVICES, INC. , a Georgia corporation (the “Company”), and WILLIAM P. FOLEY, II (the “Employee”) and is effective as of the Effective Date (as defined in the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of March 31, 2009, by and among the Company, Cars Holdings, LLC and Metavante Technologies, Inc.). In consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements set forth herein, the parties agree as follows:

     1.  Purpose . This Agreement amends and restates, in its entirety, the obligations of the parties under the Amended and Restated Employment Agreement between the Company and the Employee, dated as of July 2, 2008 (the “Prior Agreement”). The purpose of this Agreement is to recognize the importance of the Employee’s continued services to the Company’s future success, to assure the Company of the services of the Employee following the Effective Date notwithstanding any right the Employee may have to terminate the Prior Agreement, and to provide a single, integrated document which shall provide the basis for the Employee’s continued employment by the Company. In the event the Effective Date does not occur, this Second Amended and Restated Employment Agreement shall be void ab initio and of no further force and effect, and the Employee’s Prior Agreement shall continue to remain in full force and effect.

     2.  Employment and Duties . Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Company agrees to continue to employ the Employee to serve in an executive capacity as Executive Chairman. The Employee accepts such continued employment and agrees to undertake and discharge the duties, functions and responsibilities set forth in Appendix A attached hereto. In addition to the duties and responsibilities specifically assigned to the Employee pursuant to Appendix A, the Employee will perform such other duties, functions and responsibilities as are from time to time assigned to the Employee by the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) in writing, consistent with the terms and provisions of this Agreement.

     3.  Term . The term of this Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date and shall continue for a period of two (2) years ending on the second anniversary of the Effective Date or, if later, ending on the last day of any extension made pursuant to the next sentence, subject to prior termination as set forth in Section 8 (such term, including any extensions pursuant to the next sentence, the “Employment Term”). The Employment Term shall be extended automatically for one (1) additional year on the first anniversary of the Effective Date and for an additional year each anniversary thereafter unless and until either party gives written notice to the other not to extend the Employment Term before such extension would be effectuated. Notwithstanding any termination of the Employment Term or the Employee’s employment, the Employee and the Company agree that Sections 8 through 10 shall remain in effect until all parties’ obligations and benefits are satisfied thereunder.

     4.  Salary . During the Employment Term, the Company shall pay the Employee a base salary, at an annual rate, before deducting all applicable withholdings, of no less than $550,000

 


 

per year, payable at the time and in the manner dictated by the Company’s standard payroll policies. Such minimum annual base salary may be periodically reviewed and increased (but not decreased without the Employee’s express written consent) at the discretion of the Board or the Compensation Committee of the Board (the “Committee”) to reflect, among other matters, cost of living increases and performance results (such annual base salary, including any increases pursuant to this Section 4, the “Annual Base Salary”).

     5.  Other Compensation and Fringe Benefits . In addition to any executive bonus, pension, deferred compensation and long-term incentive plans which the Company or an affiliate of the Company may from time to time make available to the Employee, the Employee shall be entitled to the following during the Employment Term:

 

(a)

 

the standard Company benefits enjoyed by the Company’s other top executives as a group;

 

 

(b)

 

medical and other insurance coverage (for the Employee and any covered dependents) provided by the Company to its other top executives as a group, which the Employee has not elected to receive as of the date hereof because he receives such insurance coverage from another employer;

 

 

(c)

 

eligibility to elect and purchase supplemental disability insurance sufficient to provide two-thirds of the Employee’s pre-disability Annual Base Salary;

 

 

(d)

 

an annual incentive bonus opportunity under the Company’s annual incentive plan (“Annual Bonus Plan”) for each calendar year included in the Employment Term, with such opportunity to be earned based upon attainment of performance objectives established by the Committee (“Annual Bonus”). The Employee’s target Annual Bonus under the Annual Bonus Plan shall be no less than 250% of the Employee’s Annual Base Salary, with a maximum of up to 500% of the Employee’s Annual Base Salary (collectively, the target and maximum are referred to as the “Annual Bonus Opportunity”). The Employee’s Annual Bonus Opportunity may be periodically reviewed and increased (but not decreased without the Employee’s express written consent) at the discretion of the Committee. The Annual Bonus shall be paid no later than the March 15th first following the calendar year to which the Annual Bonus relates. Unless provided otherwise herein or the Board or the Committee determines otherwise, no Annual Bonus shall be paid to the Employee unless the Employee is employed by the Company, or an affiliate thereof, on the Annual Bonus payment date;

 

 

(e)

 

participation in all Company-sponsored incentive compensation plans, including a Synergy Plan that is associated with the integration of Metavante Technologies, Inc. pursuant to which the Employee shall be eligible to receive a bonus in the amount of $7,000,000 upon the Company achieving at least $260,000,000 in post-Effective Date annual recurring cost savings payable at the same time and in the same proportion as paid to all other participants in the Synergy Plan in accordance with and subject to such terms and conditions established by the Committee (the “Synergy Bonus”);

 


 

 

(f)

 

on the Effective Date, the Employee shall be granted a retention equity award consisting of that number of restricted stock units in respect of Company common stock determined by dividing $9,100,000 by the closing price per share of the Company’s common stock on the Effective Date (the “Retention RSU Award”). The Retention RSU Award shall fully vest and be settled on the date that is six months from the Effective Date (provided that Employee remains employed with the Company through the date that is six months from the Effective Date), subject to earlier vesting and settlement in accordance with Section 9 of this Agreement upon the termination of the Employee’s employment for any reason other than by the Employee without Good Reason (as defined below). The Retention RSU Award shall be settled in shares of Company common stock;

 

 

(g)

 

on the Effective Date, the Employee shall be awarded a cash retention award in an amount equal to $1,400,000 (the “Retention Cash Award”), payable in a single lump sum coincident with the Company’s payment under the Annual Bonus Plan (but in no event later than March 15, 2010), subject to such terms and conditions established by the Committee;

 

 

(h)

 

on the Effective Date, any award of restricted stock granted to the Employee prior to the Effective Date shall vest and become free of any applicable forfeiture and transfer restrictions as of the Effective Date; and

 

 

(i)

 

participation in the Company’s equity incentive plans and all other benefits and incentive opportunities customarily made available to the Company’s other top executives.

     6.  Vacation . For and during each calendar year within the Employment Term, the Employee shall be entitled to reasonable paid vacation periods consistent with the Employee’s position and in accordance with the Company’s standard policies, or as the Board may approve. In addition, the Employee shall be entitled to such holidays consistent with the Company’s standard policies or as the Board or the Committee may approve.

     7.  Expense Reimbursement . In addition to the compensation and benefits provided herein, the Company shall, upon receipt of appropriate documentation, reimburse the Employee each month for his reasonable travel, lodging, entertainment, promotion and other ordinary and necessary business expenses to the extent such reimbursement is permitted under the Company’s expense reimbursement policy.

     8.  Termination of Employment . The Company or the Employee may terminate the Employee’s employment at any time and for any reason in accordance with Subsection 8(a) below. The Employment Term shall be deemed to have ended on the last day of the Employee’s employment. The Employment Term shall terminate automatically upon the Employee’s death.

 

(a)

 

Notice of Termination . Any purported termination of the Employee’s employment (other than by reason of death) shall be communicated by written Notice of Termination (as defined herein) from one party to the other in accordance with the notice provisions contained in Section 25. For purposes of

 


 

 

 

 

this Agreement, a “Notice of Termination” shall mean a notice that indicates the Date of Termination (as that term is defined in Subsection 8(b)) and, with respect to a termination due to Disability (as that term is defined in Subsection 8(e)), Cause (as that term is defined in Subsection 8(d)), or Good Reason (as that term is defined in Subsection 8(f)), sets forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances that are alleged to provide a basis for such termination. A Notice of Termination from the Company shall specify whether the termination is with or without Cause or due to the Employee’s Disability. A Notice of Termination from the Employee shall specify whether the termination is with or without Good Reason.

 

 

(b)

 

Date of Termination . For purposes of this Agreement, “Date of Termination” shall mean the date specified in the Notice of Termination (but in no event shall such date be earlier than the thirtieth (30th) day following the date the Notice of Termination is given) or the date of the Employee’s death. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Date of Termination occur until the Employee experiences a “separation from service” within the meaning of Code Section 409A (as defined in Section 28 of the Agreement), and notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the date on which such separation from service takes place shall be the “Date of Termination,” and all references herein to a “termination of employment” (or words of similar meaning) shall mean a “separation from service” within the meaning of Code Section 409A.

 

 

(c)

 

No Waiver . The failure to set forth any fact or circumstance in a Notice of Termination, which fact or circumstance was not known to the party giving the Notice of Termination when the notice was given, shall not constitute a waiver of the right to assert such fact or circumstance in an attempt to enforce any right under or provision of this Agreement.

 

 

(d)

 

Cause . For purposes of this Agreement, a termination of the Employee’s employment for “Cause” means a termination of the Employee’s employment by the Company based upon the Employee’s: (i) persistent failure to perform duties consistent with a commercially reasonable standard of care (other than due to a physical or mental impairment or due to an action or inaction directed by the Company that would otherwise constitute Good Reason); (ii) willful neglect of duties (other than due to a physical or mental impairment or due to an action or inaction directed by the Company that would otherwise constitute Good Reason); (iii) conviction of, or pleading nolo contendere to, criminal or other illegal activities involving dishonesty; (iv) material breach of this Agreement; or (v) failure to materially cooperate with or impeding an investigation authorized by the Board. The Employee’s termination for Cause shall be effective when and if a resolution is duly adopted by an affirmative vote of at least three-fourths (3/4) of the Board (less the Employee), stating that, in the good faith opinion of the Board, the Employee is guilty of the conduct described in the Notice of Termination and such conduct constitutes Cause under this Agreement; provided , however , that the Employee shall have been given reasonable opportunity (A) to cure any act or omission that constitutes Cause if capable of cure and (B), together with counsel,

 


 

 

 

 

during the thirty (30) day period following the receipt by the Employee of the Notice of Termination and prior to the adoption of the Board’s resolution, to be heard by the Board.

 

 

(e)

 

Disability . For purposes of this Agreement, a termination based upon “Disability” means a termination by the Company based upon the Employee’s entitlement to long-term disability benefits under the Company’s long-term disability plan or policy, as the case may be, as in effect on the Date of Termination; provided , however , that if the Employee is not a participant in the Company’s long-term disability plan or policy on the Date of Termination, he shall still be considered terminated based upon Disability if he would have been entitled to benefits under the Company’s long-term disability plan or policy had he been a participant on his Date of Termination.

 

 

(f)

 

Good Reason . For purposes of this Agreement, a termination for “Good Reason” means a termination by the Employee during the Employment Term based upon the occurrence (without the Employee’s express written consent) of any of the following:

 

(i)

 

a material diminution in the Employee’s position or title, or the assignment of duties to the Employee that are materially inconsistent with the Employee’s position or title;

 

 

(ii)

 

a material diminution in the Employee’s Annual Base Salary or Annual Bonus Opportunity;

 

 

(iii)

 

within six (6) months immediately preceding or within two (2) years immediately following a Change in Control: (A) a material adverse change in the Employee’s status, authority or responsibility ( e.g. , the Employee no longer serving as Executive Chairman of the Board would constitute such a material adverse change) as of immediately following the Effective Date; (B) a material adverse change in the position to whom the Employee reports (including any requirement that the Employee report to a corporate officer or employee instead of reporting directly to the Board) or to the Employee’s service relationship (or the conditions under which the Employee performs his duties) as a result of such reporting structure change, or a material diminution in the authority, duties or responsibilities of the position to whom the Employee reports; (C) a material diminution in the budget over which the Employee has managing authority as of immediately following the Effective Date; or (D) a material change in the geographic location of the Employee’s principal place of employment ( e.g. , the Company has determined that a relocation of more than thirty-five (35) miles would constitute such a material change); or

 

 

(iv)

 

a material breach by the Company of any of its obligations under this Agreement.

 


 

 

 

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Employee being placed on a paid leave for up to sixty (60) days pending a determination of whether there is a basis to terminate the Employee for Cause shall not constitute Good Reason. The Employee’s continued employment shall not constitute consent to, or a waiver of rights with respect to, any act or failure to act constituting Good Reason hereunder; provided , however , that no such event described above shall constitute Good Reason unless: (1) the Employee gives Notice of Termination to the Company specifying the condition or event relied upon for such termination either: (x) within ninety (90) days of the initial existence of such event; or (y) in the case of an event predating a Change in Control, within ninety (90) days of the Change in Control; and (2) the Company fails to cure the condition or event constituting Good Reason within thirty (30) days following receipt of the Employee’s Notice of Termination (the “Cure Period”). In the event that the Company fails to remedy the condition constituting Good Reason during the applicable Cure Period, the Employee’s Date of Termination must occur, if at all, within one-hundred fifty (150) days following such Cure Period in order for such termination as a result of such condition to constitute a termination for Good Reason.

     9.  Obligations of the Company Upon Termination .

 

(a)

 

Termination by the Company for a Reason Other than Cause, Death or Disability and Termination by the Employee for Good Reason . If the Employee’s employment is terminated by: (1) the Company for any reason other than Cause, Death or Disability; or (2) the Employee for Good Reason:

 

(i)

 

the Company shall pay the Employee the following (collectively, the “Accrued Obligations”): (A) within five (5) business days after the Date of Termination, any earned but unpaid Annual Base Salary; (B) within a reasonable time following submission of all applicable documentation, any expense reimbursement payments owed to the Employee for expenses incurred prior to the Date of Termination; and (C) no later than March 15th of the year in which the Date of Termination occurs, any earned but unpaid Annual Bonus payments relating to the calendar year prior to the year in which the Date of Termination occurs;

 

 

(ii)

 

the Company shall pay the Employee no later than March 15th of the calendar year following the year in which the Date of Termination occurs, a prorated Annual Bonus based upon the actual Annual Bonus that would have been earned by the Employee for the year in which the Date of Termination occurs (based upon the target Annual Bonus Opportunity in the year in which the Date of Termination occurred, or the prior year if no target Annual Bonus Opportunity has yet been determined, and the actual satisfaction of the applicable performance measures, but ignoring any requirement under the Annual Bonus plan that the Employee must be employed on the payment date) multiplied by the percentage of the calendar year completed before the Date of Termination;

 


 

 

(iii)

 

the Company shall pay the Employee, no later than the sixty-fifth (65th) calendar day after the Date of Termination, a lump-sum payment equal to the sum of (A) product of (x) the sum of: (1) the Employee’s Annual Base Salary in effect immediately prior to the Date of Termination (disregarding any reduction in Annual Base Salary to which the Employee did not expressly consent in writing) and (2) the highest Annual Bonus paid to the Employee by the Company within the three (3) years preceding his termination of employment or, if higher, the target Annual Bonus Opportunity in the year in which the Date of Termination occurs and (y) if the Date of Termination occurs (1) during the period from the Effective Date through the first annual anniversary of the Effective Date, three (3); (2) during the period from the day following the first annual anniversary of the Effective Date through the second annual anniversary of the Effective Date, two (2); and (3) following the second annual anniversary of the Effective Date through the end of the Employment Term (including extensions), one (1), and (B) to the extent unpaid, the Retention Cash Award;

 

 

(iv)

 

all stock options, restricted stock, performance shares and other equity-based awards granted by the Company prior to the Effective Date (collectively, the “Prior Equity Awards”) and all stock options, restricted stock and other equity-based incentive awards granted by the Company on or following the Effective Date (the “New Equity Awards”), including the Retention RSU Award, in each case, that are outstanding
