Except as provided in the succeeding two paragraphs of this Section 12.2, any indemnification obligation arising under this Article XII and/or Article X of the Contribution Agreement shall be discharged by a capital contribution by the Partner owing such obligation to the extent they are found Partnership in the amount of the Damages relating thereto. Any payment by the Partnership of Damages to which an indemnification obligation relates shall be charged as a distribution to the Indemnifying Partner and taken into account for purposes of current and future distributions made by the Partnership pursuant to Section 5.1. In addition, no item of Partnership property shall be revalued to reflect such indemnification payment. From the date of determination of such obligation (which shall be the date agreed by the parties or the date of a final binding determination by a mediator or the date of a final, non-appealable judgment of determination by a court of competent jurisdiction, whether as applicable) and until such judgment obligation (and all accrued interest, if any, with respect thereto) has been paid in full in cash or other immediately available funds, all cash distributions to which a Partner shall otherwise be entitled to receive pursuant to Section 5.1(a) hereof, shall instead be retained by the Partnership and credited to the discharge of the obligation to make such capital contribution and to pay accrued but unpaid interest as provided in Section 3.1(c) hereof. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, in the event any indemnification obligation arises under Section 10.6 of the Contribution Agreement and Gannett reasonably determines that such claim is likely to result in Damages which would impact more than one fiscal year of the Partnership (each, a “York Indemnity Claim”), Gannett shall have the option to invoke the remedy described in this paragraph with respect to such underlying actionYork Indemnity Claim in lieu of the remedies described in the immediately preceding paragraph of this Section. Such option may be exercised by Gannett, suit in its sole discretion, by providing written notice to the Partnership and MediaNews (each, a “Gannett Claim Notice”), within thirty (30) days of any such determination, which sets forth with reasonable specificity the basis for the claim for indemnification, the nature of the claim and the basis and methodology for calculating the amount of the proposed reduction in the MediaNews Percentage Interest and the proportionate increase in the Gannett Percentage Interest as a result of such York Indemnity Claim. The parties agree that of MediaNews’ 59.36% Percentage Interest, a 29.50% Percentage Interest shall be treated by the parties as being attributable to the contribution of the York Partnership Interest to the Partnership pursuant to Section 2.5(a) of the Contribution Agreement. With respect to any York Indemnity Claim subject to a Gannett Claim Notice, the parties agree that MediaNews’ Percentage Interest shall be adjusted to the following percentage: (I) the sum of (a) the excess of 59.36 over 29.50 plus (b) the product of 29.50 times a fraction, the numerator of which is the fair market value of the York Partnership Interest on the date of the Gannett Claim Notice (taking into account all Damages resulting from or proceedingarising out of or by virtue of such York Indemnity Claim, including, but not limited to, the adverse effect, on a present value basis, of any changes which impact the subsequent business or otherwiseoperations of the York Limited Partnership) and the denominator of which is the fair market value of the York Partnership Interest immediately prior to the date that such indemnification obligation first arose (for purposes of clarification, this fraction cannot be greater than 1), divided by (II) 100 plus the amount described in (I)(b) above minus 29.50. If MediaNews objects to the proposed reduction in the MediaNews Percentage Interest set forth in the Gannett Claim Notice, MediaNews shall notify Gannett in writing of the basis for its objection within fifteen (15) business days after receipt of the Gannett Claim Notice and, pursuant to the procedures set forth in Section 13.1 hereof (except that no further written notice of the matter in dispute shall be required), the parties shall attempt to agree upon the fair market values of the York Partnership Interests for purposes of the applicable fraction set forth above. If the parties are unable to agree on the fair market values of the York Partnership Interest pursuant to Section 13.1, then MediaNews shall select an independent qualified appraiser (with the concurrence of Gannett, which concurrence shall not be unreasonably withheld) to determine the fair market values of the York Partnership Interests for purposes of the applicable fraction set forth above, and the parties shall abide by the conclusions of such appraiser which shall be final and binding upon the parties. The Partnership shall pay the fees of any such appraiser. Any indemnification obligation with respect to a York Indemnification Claim subject to a Gannett Claim Notice shall be discharged upon a reduction in the MediaNews Percentage Interest and proportionate increase in the Gannett Percentage Interest pursuant to this paragraph, and such discharge shall be effective as of the date of the applicable Gannett Claim Notice. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, from and after the date of any Gannett Claim Notice, unless otherwise agreed by the parties, all cash distributions to which MediaNews shall otherwise be entitled to receive pursuant to Section 5.1(a) hereof shall continue to be distributed to MediaNews until (i) MediaNews has made an additional capital contribution to the Partnership pursuant to the next paragraph of this Section or (ii) MediaNews has failed to exercise its option to make an additional capital contribution to the Partnership within the 30-day period referenced in the next paragraph of this Section, in either of which events, any future distributions to which MediaNews would otherwise be entitled to receive pursuant to Section 5.1(a) hereof shall be equitably adjusted (including accrued interest at a rate of 5% per annum), retroactive to the date of the Gannett Claim Notice, to arise take into account the period during which the MediaNews Percentage Interest was reduced from and after the bad faithdate of the Gannett Claim Notice. If, willful misconduct as a consequence of Gannett’s invoking the remedy described in the preceding two paragraphs of this Section, the Percentage Interest of MNG and its Affiliates would be decreased to less than 51%, MediaNews shall have the option, exercisable by written notice to Gannett within 30 days of a final determination of the amount by which MediaNews’ Percentage Interest is to decrease pursuant to the preceding two paragraphs, to contribute to the Partnership additional newspapers, mastheads or gross negligence related assets owned by it, provided that any such proposed additional capital contribution shall be subject to Gannett’s reasonable concurrence, which such concurrence shall not be unreasonably withheld; and provided, further, that no such proposed additional capital contribution shall cause Gannett’s Percentage Interest to be decreased to a level of less than 90% of the Gannett Percentage Interest which was in effect immediately prior to the date of the Gannett Claim Notice which gave rise to such reduction in MediaNews’ Percentage Interest, without obtaining the prior written consent of Gannett, which may be withheld in Gannett’s sole discretion. Upon receipt by the Partnership of an additional capital contribution pursuant to this paragraph, the Capital Account and Percentage Interest of the contributing Partner(s) will be adjusted upward to reflect the fair market value of such Indemnified Personcontribution (determined in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 9.5(f)) and, subject to the terms of the immediately preceding sentence, the Percentage Interest of the other Partner(s) will be adjusted downward proportionately to reflect the increase in the contributing Partner’s Percentage Interest.
