3.3 Holdback

The Vendor and Wave Wireless agree that the amount currently held back by VCom pursuant to the Share Purchase Agreement (the “Share Purchase Holdback”), net of any amounts to be retained by VCom pursuant to section 10.4 of the Share Purchase Agreement, shall represent the holdback to be retained by VCom in respect of this Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Asset Purchase Holdback”) and released by VCom to the Vendor pursuant to this section.

(a) Subject to section 3.3(c), if a Clearance Certificate fixing an amount equal to the portion of the Purchase Price is provided by the Vendor to the Purchaser within 90 days from Closing:

(ii) the Purchaser shall release the balance of the Asset Purchase Holdback to the Vendor, subject to (a) a dollar for dollar reduction for any amounts paid by the Purchaser to the Receiver General of Canada in satisfaction of the Purchaser’s withholding tax liability hereunder pursuant to Section 116 of the Tax Act in addition to any such funds so paid by the Purchaser to the Receiver General of Canada pursuant to section 3.3(a)(i); and (b) a dollar for dollar reduction for any bona fide claims made by any 3^rd party against the Assets, on the earlier of 90 days after Closing or the date, if any, on which the Vendor files for bankruptcy under the federal laws of the United States and/or Canada., on which date the balance of the Asset Purchase Holdback shall be paid as directed by the competent authority in any such bankruptcy proceeding or released to the Vendor

(c) Notwithstanding any other provision of this section, if a Clearance Certificate fixing an amount equal to the portion of Purchase Price has not been provided by the Vendor to the Purchaser as set out above on or before the 30th day after the end of the month in which the Closing Date occurs, the Purchaser shall remit that amount which is equal to 25% of the Purchase Price to the Receiver General for Canada as is required to satisfy the Purchaser’s withholding tax liability in respect of the purchase of the Assets from the Vendor pursuant to section 116 of the Tax Act, unless the Vendor provides evidence satisfactory to the Purchaser (acting reasonably) that the Canadian Minister of National Revenue has instructed that the no such portion of the Asset Purchase Holdback be remitted at such time.

(d) In the event that Section 3.3(c) applies to defer the time at which amounts would otherwise be required to be remitted to the Receiver General for Canada, the provisions of Section 3.3(c) shall continue to apply to the Asset Purchase Holdback as if the reference to the date that such amounts are required to be remitted to the Receiver General for Canada were instead a reference to the new date set by the Canada Revenue Agency as the date for the remittance or the date remittance is otherwise required by law.

(e) If the certificate limit in the Clearance Certificate provided to the Purchaser is less than (or is otherwise issued based upon the payment of an amount less than) the Purchase Price, the Purchaser shall remit 25% of the difference between the Purchase Price and the certificate limit shown in the Clearance Certificate to the Receiver General for Canada, in satisfaction of the Purchaser’s withholding tax liability in respect of the purchase of the Shares pursuant to section 116 of the Tax Act, and any funds remaining in the Asset Purchase Holdback after such payment shall be dealt with as provided in Sections 3.3(a) and (b).

(f) In the event the Asset Purchase Holdback is insufficient to satisfy the dollar for dollar reduction for any amounts paid by the Purchaser to the Receiver General of Canada in satisfaction of the Purchaser’s withholding tax liability hereunder pursuant to Section 116 of the Tax Act and, subject to Section 3.3(a)(ii) above, the dollar for dollar reduction for any bona fide claims made by any 3^rd party against the Assets, Wave Wireless and the Vendor agree, jointly and severally, to forthwith pay VCom the amount of any shortfall.
