• Costs and Prorations (a) At Closing, the Parties shall prorate, without duplication, as of the Closing Date, the following with respect to the Assets: (i) Solely to the extent (a) payable by the Company and (b) not covered by Section 1.4(a)(iii) or Section 1.4(a)(iv) below, all ad valorem/personal property taxes and current installments of special assessments levied or assessed with respect to the Assets on a daily basis based upon the fiscal year of the appropriate Taxing Authority on an accrual basis. (ii) All prepaid items and deposits applicable to the operation of the Assets covering periods prior to and after the Closing Date, including all utilities (including gas, water and electricity). The Company shall pay, or cause to be paid, prior to the Closing, all such amounts for which a xxxx has been received for which payments are due prior to the Closing Date, and Purchaser shall be credited, and Seller shall be debited, with an amount equal to all utility charges for the period from the last day covered by any such xxxx until the Closing Date if such utilities will continue to be received. (iii) Amounts payable under Leases and Permits and other Assets shall be prorated on an accrual basis. The Company shall pay, or cause to be paid, when due all amounts due thereunder prior to the Closing Date. For such amounts due on or after the Closing Date and reflected on the Closing Statement or the Final Closing Statement, Purchaser shall be credited, and Seller shall be debited, for Seller’s prorated share of such amount. For such amounts due on or after the Closing Date, Seller agrees to pay its prorated share when due or to promptly reimburse Purchaser if paid by Purchaser; provided, however, to the extent funds are available, such amounts shall first be paid from the Escrow Fund. Percentage rents based on advertising revenues for periods including days both before and after the Closing Date, and Seller’s prorated share thereof, shall be estimated in good faith by extrapolating the advertising revenue for the period upon which the percentage rents are based by applying the average monthly revenue for the months (or portions thereof) preceding the Closing, to the months (or portions thereof) following Closing. For the avoidance of doubt, (x) paid-up/pre-paid rental on Sign Locations Leases pre-paid not more than twelve (12) months beyond the Closing Date shall be prorated, but (y) paid-up/pre-paid rental on Sign Locations Leases prepaid more than twelve (12) months beyond the Closing Date and perpetual easements shall not be prorated. (iv) The Purchase Price shall be decreased by: (a) the pro rata portion of the amount of any remaining balance at the Closing Date of credits for advertisements received prior to the Closing Date or other credits due advertisers from Seller or the Company as of the Closing Date; and (b) pre-billed and/or pre-collected accounts receivable items actually collected and for which outdoor advertising services are to be rendered after the Closing Date. (v) The Purchase Price shall be increased by any amounts posted as security deposit by CCOI or any of its Affiliates with respect to any Assumed Contract (which deposits are not being refunded to CCOI or its Affiliates but rather being retained by the counterparties for the Company’s account). (b) Seller has prepared, in good faith, a closing statement (the “Closing Statement”) consistent with the foregoing and otherwise consistent with this Agreement and has delivered it, along with reasonably detailed information showing the manner in which the contents of the Closing Statement were calculated, to Purchaser prior to the date of this Agreement. In preparing the Closing Statement, Seller used the best available information, subject to additional adjustment among the Parties after Closing upon receipt of definitive information or final bills; provided, however, that no such adjustments will be made after the Closing Statement becomes final pursuant to Section 1.4(c). (c) As soon as practicable after the Closing (but in any event within ninety (90) days after the Closing), Seller shall deliver a final Closing Statement (the “Final Closing Statement”) to Purchaser, which Final Closing Statement shall set forth (among the other information described above) the amount of actual Closing Date Indebtedness. Each Party shall provide to the other Party, reasonable access at reasonable times to the books and records of such Party and to appropriate employees and representatives (including independent accountants) as such other Party shall reasonably request in connection with the preparation and review of the Final Closing Statement, or any component thereof or information contained or referred to therein, as the case may be, including all work papers of the accountants who audited, compiled or reviewed such statements or notices (subject to each Party and its representatives entering into any such access letters required by the other Party’s accountants in connection herewith), and shall otherwise cooperate reasonably and in good faith with such other Party to arrive at a final determination of the amounts set forth in the Final Closing Statement. Unless Purchaser notifies Seller in writing within 15 days after Seller’s delivery of the Final Closing Statement of any objection to the matters set forth in the Final Closing Statement (the “Notice of Objection”), the Final Closing Statement shall become final and binding. Any Notice of Objection shall specify in reasonable detail the basis for the objections set forth therein. If Purchaser provides the Notice of Objection to Seller within such 15-day period, Purchaser and Seller shall, during the 30-day period following Seller’s receipt of the Notice of Objection, attempt in good faith to resolve Purchaser’s objections. If Purchaser and Seller are unable to resolve all such objections within such 30-day period, the matters remaining in dispute that were properly included in the Notice of Objection (the “Unresolved Items”) shall be submitted to a nationally recognized independent public accounting firm mutually acceptable to the Parties (the “Accounting Firm”), which Accounting Firm shall resolve such matters; provided that if Purchaser and Seller are unable to agree upon such firm within ten days after the end of such 30-day period, then the Accounting Firm shall be an accounting or valuation firm of national standing appointed by the American Arbitration Association in New York, New York; provided that such firm shall not be the independent auditor of (or otherwise provide services under a contractual arrangement with) either Purchaser (or any of its Affiliates) or Seller (or any of its Affiliates including iHeartMedia, Inc. or any of its Subsidiaries). Each Party shall furnish the Accounting Firm such work papers and other documents and information pertaining to the Unresolved Items still in dispute as the Accounting Firm may reasonably request and shall be afforded an opportunity to discuss such Unresolved Items with the Accounting Firm at such hearing as the Accounting Firm shall request or permit; provided, that (i) each Party shall provide the other Party with a copy of all materials provided to, and communications with, the Accounting Firm, and (ii) no Party (or any of its Affiliates, advisors or representatives) shall engage in any ex parte communication with the Accounting Firm at any time with respect to the Unresolved Items. The Accounting Firm shall only resolve the Unresolved Items. The resolution of the Unresolved Items by the Accounting Firm shall be final and binding, and the determination of the Accounting Firm shall constitute an arbitral award that is final, binding and non-appealable and upon which a judgment may be entered by a court having jurisdiction over the party against which such determination is to be enforced. Purchaser and Seller shall each pay their own costs and expenses incurred under this Section 1.4; provided, however, that the Accounting Firm shall allocate, and Purchaser and Seller shall pay, its fees, costs and expenses between Purchaser and Seller in accordance with the percentage that the portion of the contested amount not awarded to such Parties bears to the amount actually contested by or on behalf of such Parties. (d) Within five (5) Business Days after the Final Closing Statement is finalized pursuant to clause (c) of this Section 1.4: (i) If the Closing Consideration delivered on the Closing Date exceeds the final Purchase Price as adjusted pursuant to this Section 1.4 and contained in the Final Closing Statement; Seller shall pay to Purchaser an amount equal to such excess; and (ii) If the amount of the final Purchase Price as adjusted pursuant to this Section 1.4 and contained in the Final Closing Statement exceeds Closing Consideration delivered on the Closing Date; Purchaser shall pay Seller an amount equal to such excess. Any amount paid with respect to final adjustments to the Purchase Price made pursuant to this Section 1.4 shall be (i) paid by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated by the receiving Party and (ii) treated as an adjustment of the Purchase Price for applicable tax purposes to the extent permitted by Tax Law.

• Excess Costs If the Permitted Costs exceeds the Finish Allowance, then Tenant shall pay all such excess costs (“Excess Costs”), provided, however, Landlord will, prior to the commencement of construction of Tenant’s Improvements, advise Tenant of the sum of the Contract Sum and the Construction Management Fee (the “Cost Estimate”). Tenant shall have five (5) business days from and after the receipt of such advice within which to approve or disapprove the Contract Sum and Cost Estimate. If Tenant fails to approve same by the expiration of the fifth such business day, then Tenant shall be deemed to have approved the Proposed Contract Sum and Cost Estimate. If Tenant disapproves the Contract Sum and Cost Estimate within such five (5) business day period, then Tenant shall either reduce the scope of Tenant’s Improvements such that the Contract Sum and Construction Management Fee do not exceed the Finish Allowance or, at Tenant’s option, Landlord shall obtain two (2) additional bids, provided that each day beyond such five (5) business day period and until the rebid is accepted by Tenant shall constitute a Tenant Delay hereunder. The foregoing process shall continue until a Contract Sum and Cost Estimate are accepted or deemed accepted by Tenant. Landlord and Tenant must approve (or be deemed to have approved) the Contract Sum for the construction of Tenant’s Improvements in writing prior to the commencement of construction.

With respect to any Transaction, Administrative Agent and Buyers may conclusively rely upon, and shall incur no liability to any Seller Party or Guarantor in acting upon, any request or other communication that Administrative Agent and Buyers reasonably believe to have been given or made by a person authorized to enter into a Transaction on each Seller Party’s behalf, whether or not such person is listed on the certificate delivered pursuant to Section 10.a(5) hereof. d. Notwithstanding the assignment of the Program Agreements with respect to each Purchased Asset to Administrative Agent for the benefit of Buyers, Seller Parties and Guarantor agrees and covenants with Administrative Agent and Buyers to reasonably enforce in a commercially reasonable manner Seller Parties’ and Guarantor’s rights and remedies with respect to parties other than Administrative Agent and Buyers set forth in the Program Agreements. (i) Any payments made by a Seller Party or Guarantor to Administrative Agent or a Buyer or a Buyer assignee or participant hereunder or any Program Agreement shall be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If a Seller Party or Guarantor shall be required by applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of the applicable withholding agent) to deduct or withhold any Tax from any sums payable to Administrative Agent or a Buyer or Buyer assignee or participant, then (1) a Seller Party or Guarantor shall make such deductions or withholdings and pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law; (2) to the extent the withheld or deducted Tax is an Indemnified Tax, the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making such deductions and withholdings (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 11.e Administrative Agent or a Buyer receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been made; and

Landlord may inspect the Premises and, if Landlord reasonably determines that Tenant is not maintaining the Premises in their condition on the Effective Date, Landlord may provide Tenant with written notice of any such maintenance concern, and Tenant shall promptly make such repairs. If Tenant fails to complete such repairs within thirty (30) days of receipt of such notice, Landlord may undertake such repairs and Tenant shall be obligated to reimburse Landlord for its costs within ten (10) days of receipt of an invoice therefore. Landlord represents and warrants to Tenant that the exterior walls, foundation and roof of the Premises are in good working order on the Effective Date. Landlord will, at its cost, replace, restore, repair or maintain (as necessary) the roof until the first anniversary of the Commencement Date. Landlord will, at its cost, replace, restore, repair or maintain (as necessary) the exterior walls and foundation of the Premises until the fifth anniversary of the Commencement Date. Tenant shall be fully responsible for the replacement, restoration, repair and maintenance of the roof, exterior walls and foundation of the Premises thereafter. If Landlord fails to commence such repairs within thirty (30) days of receipt of any notice from Tenant, Tenant may undertake such repairs and Landlord shall be obligated to reimburse Tenant for its costs within ten (10) days of receipt of an invoice therefore; provided, however, that Tenant shall have no rights to offset or set off any such amounts against the Rent to be paid hereunder. If Landlord does not reimburse Tenant within ten (10) days from the date of notice, such charge shall bear interest at the rate of eighteen percent (18%) per annum until paid. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein contained (except for the provisions of paragraph 32 below), if Tenant makes any changes, additions or alterations to the roof of the Premises which involves penetration of the roof (other than those for telecommunications installations so long as the installation contractor has Landlord’s prior written approval which will not be unreasonably conditioned, delayed or denied), Landlord’s obligations to replace, restore, repair or maintain the roof shall cease. If Tenant undertakes any structural repairs in the Premises which impact, affect, or alter the walls or foundation of the Premises, Landlord’s obligation to replace, restore, repair or maintain that portion of the exterior walls and foundation of the Premises shall cease as of the date of such action by Tenant. Any Operating Costs that pertain to a period prior to or after the Lease Term will be pro rated between Landlord and Tenant in the proportion of the amount of the Lease Term that falls within the period to which the Operating Costs pertain.
