Try to remap System.ServiceModel 3.0 to 4.0 using an app.config:
<configuration>
<runtime>
<assemblyBinding xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1">
<dependentAssembly>
<assemblyIdentity
name="System.ServiceModel"
publicKeyToken="b77a5c561934e0895"
/>
<bindingRedirect
oldVersion="3.0.0.0"
newVersion="4.0.0.0"
/>
</dependentAssembly>
</assemblyBinding>
</runtime>
</configuration>
