EMPLOYEE MATTERS AGREEMENT
This EMPLOYEE MATTERS AGREEMENT (this "Agreement") is entered into as of -
July 13, 2000, between Marshall & Ilsley Corporation ("M&I"), a Wisconsin
corporation, and Metavante Corporation ("Metavante"), a Wisconsin corporation.
Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined, shall have the
respective meanings assigned to them in Article I hereof.
WHEREAS, as set forth in the General Assignment and Assumption Agreement
dated as of July 1, 2000 (the "Assignment and Assumption Agreement"), and
subject to the terms and conditions thereof, M&I has transferred and assigned to
Metavante substantially all of the assets and liabilities currently associated
with the Metavante Business (as defined in the Assignment and Assumption
Agreement) and the stock or similar interests currently held by M&I in
subsidiaries and other entities that conduct such business (the "Transfer");
WHEREAS, M&I and Metavante currently contemplate that, following the
Transfer, Metavante will make an initial public offering (the "IPO") of
Metavante common stock that will reduce M&I's ownership of Metavante on a fully
diluted basis to not less than eighty and one-tenth percent (80.1%);
WHEREAS, M&I intends, sometime after the IPO, to distribute all of its
shares of Metavante common stock to M&I shareholders on a pro rata basis (the
"Distribution");
WHEREAS, the Transfer and the Distribution are intended to qualify as a
tax-free reorganization and distribution under sections 368(a)(1)(D) and 355 of
the Code; and
WHEREAS, in furtherance of the foregoing, M&I and Metavante have agreed to
enter into this Agreement to allocate between them assets, liabilities and

and programs, and certain employment matters with respect to their employees.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the covenants and
