Nasdaq Execution Services, LLC Agreements

 

Nasdaq Execution Services contracted with SunGard Financial Systems Inc., a subsidiary of SunGard, for SunGard Financial to provide Nasdaq Execution Services on-line processing, report services and related services in connection with Nasdaq Execution Services’ clearance of trades. The term of this agreement was five years and began in September 2004 and was automatically renewed at yearly intervals thereafter until terminated by Nasdaq Execution Services or SunGard Financial. The annual service fee was $10.0 million in the first year, declining to $8.0 million in the second year and $6.0 million in the third year of the agreement. The annual service fee was subject to price review in years four and five based on market rates, but would not be less than $4.0 million per year. Some additional fees may be assessed based on services needed or requested.

 

Our single platform includes the functionality which was previously provided by SunGard Financial enabling us to cease using the product which resulted in a charge to earnings of approximately $10.6 million in 2007. This charge is included in general, administrative and other expense in the Consolidated Statements of Income.
