The Parties shall cooperate with each other to the extent reasonably necessary in the preparation of any such HSR Filing. As promptly as is practicable after receiving any request from any appropriate Governmental Authority for information, documents, or other materials in connection with the review of the HSR Filing, each Party shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to comply with such request. Each Party shall each cooperate reasonably with the other in connection with resolving any inquiry or investigation by any Governmental Authority relating to the HSR Filing.

In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, each Party shall promptly inform the other Party of any communication to or from any Governmental Authority regarding the Agreement and/or the transactions contemplated by the Agreement. Except as may be prohibited by any Governmental Authority or by any Applicable Law, the Parties will consult and cooperate with one another, and will consider in good faith the views of one another, in connection with preparing any submission or presentation to any Governmental Authority in connection with any such inquiry. Except as may be prohibited by any Governmental Authority or by any Applicable Law, the Parties will permit authorized representatives of the other Party to be present at any meeting, telephone call or conference with such Government Authority in connection with any such inquiry. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained in this Agreement shall require or obligate either Party to, and either Party shall not without the prior written consent of the other Party: (i) agree or otherwise become subject to any restrictions, conditions, limitations, licensing requirements, or other understandings required or requested by the FTC or the Division in connection the FTC’s or Division’s investigation of the transactions contemplated by the Agreement as part of the HSR process; or (ii) agree or otherwise be required to sell or otherwise dispose of, hold separate (through the establishment or a trust or otherwise), or divest itself of all or any portion of the business, assets, or operations of such Party.

HSR Any applicable waiting period under the HSR Act shall have expired or been terminated.
NASDAQ Approval The Company and the Purchaser agree that until the Company either obtains shareholder approval of the issuance of the Securities, or an exemption from NASDAQ's corporate governance rules as they may apply to the Securities, and an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to the Purchaser that NASDAQ's corporate governance rules do not conflict with nor may result in a delisting of the Company's common stock from the SmallCap Market (the "Approval") upon the conversion of the Notes, the Purchaser may not receive upon conversion of the Notes more than the number of common shares greater than 19.9% of the shares of Company's common stock outstanding on the Closing Date. Provided the closing price of the Common Stock on a Principal Market is less than $.25 per share for three consecutive trading days (such third day being the "Trigger Date"), the Company covenants to obtain the Approval required pursuant to the NASDAQ's corporate governance rules to allow conversion of all the Notes and interest thereon. The Company further covenants to file the preliminary proxy statement relating to the Approval with the Commission on or before thirty days after the Trigger Date ("Proxy Filing Date"). The Company further covenants to obtain the Approval no later than ninety days after the Trigger Date ("Approval Date"). The Company's failure to (i) file the proxy on or before the Proxy Filing Date; or (ii) the Company's failure to obtain the Approval on or before the Approval Date (each being an "Approval Default") shall be deemed an Event of Default under the Note, but only to the extent the Notes and interest thereon that may not be converted due to the Company's failure to obtain such Approval.
HSR Approval The applicable waiting period under the HSR Act shall have expired or been terminated.
Antitrust Approvals All terminations or expirations of waiting periods imposed by any Governmental Entity necessary for the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including under the HSR Act and any other Antitrust Laws, shall have occurred and all other notifications, consents, authorizations and approvals required to be made or obtained from any Governmental Entity under any Antitrust Law shall have been made or obtained for the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
FCC Approval Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or in the other Loan Documents, neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender will take any action pursuant to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, which would constitute or result in a change in control of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries requiring the prior approval of the FCC without first obtaining such prior approval of the FCC. After the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Borrower shall take or cause to be taken any action which the Administrative Agent may reasonably request in order to obtain from the FCC such approval as may be necessary to enable the Administrative Agent to exercise and enjoy the full rights and benefits granted to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders by this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, including, at the Borrower’s cost and expense, the use of the Borrower’s best efforts to assist in obtaining such approval for any action or transaction contemplated by this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents for which such approval is required by Law.
No Approvals No consent or authorization of, filing with, notice to or other act by, or in respect of, any Governmental Authority or any other Person is required in order for the Borrower to execute, deliver, or perform any of its obligations under this Note.
Commission Approval The Parties understand and agree that this Agreement will be filed with the Commission for approval by such Commission (or the FCC if the Commission fails to act) pursuant to Section 252 of the Act. Each Party specifically reserves its right to judicial review of this Agreement under Section 252(e)(6) of the Act, or any other available remedy at law or equity. If the Commission, the FCC or any court rejects any portion of this Agreement, the Parties agree to meet and negotiate in good faith to arrive at a mutually acceptable modification of the rejected portion and any provisions that would be materially affected by deletion of the rejected portion; provided that such rejected portion shall not affect the validity of the remainder of this Agreement. The Parties acknowledge that nothing in this Agreement shall limit a Party's ability, independent of such Party's agreement to support and participate in the approval of this Agreement, to assert public policy issues relating to the Act, including challenging the validity of any portion of the Act or an FCC or Commission rule, order, Guideline or other determination made pursuant to the Act, or the application by CBT for suspension or modification of portions of the Act or rules pursuant to Section 251(f)(2) of the Act. In the event CBT obtains a suspension or modification of any portion of the Act or rules thereunder pursuant to Section 252(f)(2) of the Act, the Parties shall negotiate as necessary to incorporate the applicable terms and conditions of such suspension or modification and the Parties agree to negotiate as necessary in order to clarify the application of such suspension or modification to the terms of into this Agreement.
