7.1 Termination. This Agreement may be terminated as set forth below by written notice from the terminating party, delivered in accordance with Section 8.5 hereof, specifying the reason therefor:

(a) by mutual agreement of the parties hereto;

(b) by Purchasers if (i) any condition precedent to the Closing set forth in Section 2.2 hereof has not been satisfied or waived on or before the Outside Date or (ii) the Closing has not occurred on or before the Outside Date for any reason other than a material default by Purchasers in their obligations hereunder; and

(a) In the event of termination of this Agreement (i) as provided in Section 7.1(a), or (ii) by Purchasers or Sellers as provided in Section 7.1(b) or 7.1(c) for any reason other than the default of the other party or the failure of the other party to satisfy a condition to Closing required to be satisfied by such party, then this Agreement shall forthwith become void and there shall be no liability hereunder on the part of any party hereto, or any officer, director, employee, agent or representative of any party hereto or any person who controls a party hereto within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), except that the agreements with respect to expenses and publicity contained in Sections 2.5 and 8.7, respectively, shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

ARTICLE VIII.

GENERAL PROVISIONS

8.1 Survival of Representations and Warranties. The representations and warranties, of the parties hereto contained in this Agreement or in any writing delivered pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement or on the Closing Date shall survive any examination by or on behalf of any party hereto and shall survive the Closing Date and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby for a period of two (2) years; provided, however, that the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 3.1, 3.3, 3.4, 4.1 and 4.3 shall survive the Closing Date and shall continue in full force and effect without limit as to time.

8.2 Indemnification.

(a) Sellers hereby covenant and agree to defend, indemnify and save and hold harmless Purchasers, together with Purchasers’ respective subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, directors, members, employees, shareholders, attorneys and representatives and each Person who controls any Purchaser within the meaning of the Securities Act, from and against any loss, cost, expense, liability, claim or legal damages (including, without limitation, reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel and accountants and other costs and expenses incident to any actual or threatened Action and all costs of investigation) (collectively, the “Damages”) arising out of or resulting from: (i) any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by any Seller in this Agreement or in any Schedule or Exhibit delivered by any Seller pursuant to this Agreement; (ii) the failure of any Seller to perform or observe fully any covenant, agreement or condition required to be performed or observed by such Seller pursuant to this Agreement or any Schedule or Exhibit delivered by any Seller pursuant to this Agreement; (iii) the Excluded Liabilities, including, without limitation the Shareholder Liabilities; (iv) any claims of third parties claiming compensation, commissions or expenses for services as a Broker or finder based upon obligations incurred by any Seller; or (v) any actual or threatened Action arising out of or resulting from any Seller’s acts or omissions in connection with or pursuant to any Purchased Agreement or Continuing Agreement.

(b) Purchasers covenant and agree to indemnify and save and hold harmless Sellers, together with Sellers’ respective officers, employees, directors, members, employees, shareholders, attorneys and representatives and each Person who controls any Seller within the meaning of the Securities Act, from and against any Damages arising out of or resulting from: (i) any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by any Purchaser in this Agreement or in any Exhibit delivered by any Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement; (ii) the failure of any Purchaser to perform or observe fully any covenant, agreement or condition required to be performed or observed by such Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement or any Exhibit delivered by any Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement; (iii) the Assumed Liabilities; (iv) any claims of third parties claiming compensation, commissions or expenses for services as a Broker or finder based upon obligations incurred by any Purchaser; or (v) any actual or threatened Action arising out of or resulting from any Purchaser’s acts or omissions in connection with or pursuant to any Purchased Agreement or Continuing Agreement.

-18-

(c) In the event that any indemnified party is made a defendant in or party to any Action instituted by any third party for Damages (any such third party action, suit, proceeding or claim being referred to as a “Third-Party Claim”), the indemnified party (referred to in this clause (c) as the “notifying party”) shall give notice thereof as soon as practicable and in any event within thirty (30) days after the indemnified party receives notice thereof (but, in all events, at least twenty (20) business days prior to the date that an answer to such Third-Party Claim is due to be filed). The failure to give such notice shall not affect whether an indemnifying party is liable to provide indemnification hereunder unless such failure has resulted in the loss of material, substantive rights with respect to the indemnifying party’s ability to defend such Third-Party Claim, and then only to the extent of such loss. The indemnifying party may contest and defend such Third-Party Claim so long as the indemnifying party: (i) diligently contests and defends such Third-Party Claim, and (ii) acknowledges in writing that it is obligated to provide indemnification with respect to such Third-Party Claim. Notice of the intention so to contest and defend shall be given by the indemnifying party to the notifying party within twenty (20) business days after the notifying party delivers notice of a Third-Party Claim (but, in all events, at least ten (10) business days prior to the date that an answer to such Third-Party Claim is due to be filed). Such contest and defense shall be conducted by reputable attorneys employed by the indemnifying party and approved by the indemnified party (which approval will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). The notifying party shall be entitled, at its own cost and expense (which expense shall not constitute Damages unless the notifying party reasonably determines that the indemnifying party is not adequately representing or, because of a conflict of interest, may not adequately represent, the interests of the indemnified parties, and has provided the indemnifying party with timely notice of such determination, and then only to the extent that such expenses are reasonable), to participate in such contest and defense and to be represented by attorneys of its or their own choosing. If the notifying party elects to participate in such defense, the notifying party will cooperate with the indemnifying party in the conduct of such defense. Neither the notifying party nor the indemnifying party may concede, settle or compromise any Third-Party Claim without the consent of the other party, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed in light of all factors of importance to such party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the indemnifying party fails to acknowledge in writing its obligation to provide indemnification in respect of such Third-Party Claim, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the notifying party or to diligently contest and defend such Third-Party Claim, then the notifying party alone shall be entitled to contest, defend and settle such Third-Party Claim in the first instance (in which case, all expenses incurred in connection therewith shall constitute Damages) and, only if the notifying party chooses not to contest, defend or settle such Third-Party Claim, shall the indemnifying party then have the right to contest and defend (but not settle) such Third-Party Claim.

-19-

(d) In the event any indemnified party shall have a claim against any indemnifying party that does not involve a Third-Party Claim (an “Indemnification Claim”), the indemnified party shall deliver a written notice of such Indemnification Claim (a “Claims Notice”) to the indemnifying party with reasonable promptness. The Claims Notice shall set forth with reasonable specificity the amount claimed and the underlying facts supporting such Indemnification Claim and enclose any relevant material documentation in the indemnified party’s possession, such as petitions or subpoenas received by the indemnified party. The failure to deliver such Claims Notice shall not affect whether an indemnifying party is liable for reimbursement unless such failure has resulted in the loss of material, substantive rights with respect to the indemnifying party’s ability to defend such Indemnification Claim, and then only to the extent of such loss

(e) The indemnifying party shall have fifteen (15) days from receipt of any Claims Notice to accept or dispute such Indemnification Claim. In the event that an indemnifying party elects to dispute such Indemnification Claim, the indemnifying party shall deliver a written notice to the indemnified party within such fifteen (15) day period which sets forth in reasonable detail the indemnifying party’s grounds for disputing such Indemnification Claim (such notice, a “Dispute Notice”). If the indemnifying party notifies the indemnified party that it does not intend to dispute the Indemnification Claim described in the Claims Notice or fails to deliver a Dispute Notice to the indemnified party within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such Claims Notice, the Damages in the amount specified in the Claims Notice will be conclusively deemed a liability of the indemnifying party and the indemnifying party shall pay the amount of such Damages to the indemnified party on demand.

(f) If any indemnified party is entitled to receive any amount from any indemnifying party pursuant to this Section 8.2, including, without limitation, Damages (an “Indemnification Payment”), the indemnifying parties shall remit such amount to the indemnified party within ten (10) days after the indemnified party makes written demand therefore (a “Demand”). The indemnifying party shall have fifteen (15) days from receipt of any Demand to accept or dispute such Demand. In the event that an indemnifying party elects to dispute a Demand (provided that to the extent such Demand relates to an Indemnification Claim, such party had previously delivered a Dispute Notice with respect thereto), the indemnifying party shall deliver a written notice to the indemnified party setting forth in reasonable detail the indemnifying party’s grounds for disputing the Demand (such notice, a “Demand Dispute”). If the indemnifying party notifies the indemnified party that it does not intend to dispute the Demand or fails to properly deliver a Demand Dispute to the indemnified party within fifteen (15) days after receipt of the Demand, the amount set forth in the Demand will be conclusively deemed a liability of the indemnifying party. If Sellers or Purchasers properly deliver a Dispute Notice and/or Demand Dispute within the time periods specified above, the parties shall attempt to resolve such dispute in good faith for a period of sixty (60) days. If, at the end of such period, the parties have not resolved the dispute, either party may seek relief from a court of competent jurisdiction in Los Angeles County notwithstanding the mediation provisions set forth in Section 8.8 below.

(g) The foregoing indemnification provisions are in addition to, and not in derogation of, any statutory, equitable or common law remedy, including, without limitation, injunctive relief and specific performance, each party may have for the breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement set forth in this Agreement or in any other agreement entered into by the parties pursuant hereto or the enforcement thereof.

-20-

8.3 Goodwill Reduction Indemnification

(a) In the event that there is a Goodwill Reduction Event (as defined below), Purchasers covenant and agree to indemnify Sellers by making the Indemnity Payments to Sellers specified in Section 8.3(d) within thirty (30) days following the Final Determination (as defined in Section 8.3(b)).

(b) A “Goodwill Reduction Event” shall mean any Final Determination which results in a reduction of the amount of the Purchase Price allocated to goodwill when compared with the allocations set forth on Schedule 1.6 hereof. For purposes of the foregoing, a “Final Determination” means the earliest to occur of (i) the date on which the applicable statute of limitations for raising an issue regarding a federal income tax matter with respect to Sellers has expired, (ii) the date on which a decision, judgment, decree or other order has been issued by any court of competent jurisdiction, which decision, judgment, decree or other order has become final (i.e., all allowable appeals requested by the parties to the action have been exhausted), (iii) the date on which a concession, settlement or compromise of the Proposed Tax Adjustment reached in accordance with Section 8.3(c) has been fully executed by all parties, or (iv) the date on which the time for instituting a claim for refund has expired or, if a claim was filed, the time for instituting suit with respect thereto has expired.

(c) Each party to this Agreement shall promptly notify the other parties in writing and in any event within ten (10) days after its receipt of notice of any communication from any taxing authority regarding an audit or assessment or any other event that could give rise to a Goodwill Reduction Event and/or any proposed adjustment arising therefrom (a “Proposed Tax Adjustment”). Purchasers may elect to contest and defend such Proposed Tax Adjustment so long as Purchasers: (i) diligently contest and defend such Proposed Tax Adjustment, and (ii) acknowledge in writing that they are obligated to indemnify Sellers from any Goodwill Reduction Event. Purchasers shall give Sellers notice of the intention to contest and defend the Proposed Tax Adjustment within twenty (20) days after the notifying party delivers notice of a Proposed Tax Adjustment (but, in all events, at least ten (10) business days prior to the date that an answer to such Proposed Tax Adjustment is due to be filed). Upon receipt of such notice, Sellers shall appoint Purchasers as attorneys in fact to represent Sellers in connection with the Proposed Tax Adjustment. Purchasers shall have the right to concede, settle or compromise the Proposed Tax Adjustment at any time during the proceedings provided that Purchasers give Sellers ten (10) business days advance written notice of such intention and tender payment in full of the amounts owed pursuant to Section 8.3(d). Sellers shall be entitled, at their own cost and expense, to participate in such contest and defense and to be represented by attorneys of its or their own choosing and to participate in any meetings, hearings or proceedings, provided that such costs shall not be included in the Indemnity Payments. If Sellers elect to participate in such defense, Sellers will cooperate with Purchasers in the conduct of such defense. Sellers and Purchasers acknowledge that the Proposed Tax Adjustment may be included as part of a broader audit of Sellers and that there may be one or more other proposed tax adjustments (the “Other Proposed Tax Adjustments”). In such case, Sellers shall be required, at their own cost and expense, to participate in such contest and defense with respect to the Other Proposed Tax Adjustments. Sellers shall have the right to concede, settle or compromise the Other Proposed Tax Adjustments at any time during the proceedings provided that Sellers give Purchasers ten (10) business days advance written notice of such intention. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Purchasers fail to acknowledge in writing their obligation to provide indemnification in respect of such Proposed Tax Adjustment, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to Sellers or to diligently contest and defend such Proposed Tax Adjustment, then Sellers alone shall be entitled to contest, defend and settle such Proposed Tax Adjustment in the first instance in which case, all expenses incurred in connection therewith shall be included in the Indemnity Payments.

-21-

(d) The payments required by Section 8.3(a) (the “Indemnity Payments”) shall be the sum of the following amounts: (i) (x) the net difference in the federal and state income tax liability of Sellers for the Purchase Price, taking into account the deductibility of the state income tax for purposes of calculating the federal income taxes, resulting from the Goodwill Reduction Event, plus (y) any and all interest and penalties imposed on Sellers with respect to the Goodwill Reduction Event, plus (z) Sellers’ expenses specified in the last sentence of Section 8.3(c); and (ii) an amount sufficient to pay any federal and state income tax liability owed by Sellers as a result of the receipt of the amounts specified in clause (i) hereof and this clause (ii) (a fully grossed-up tax indemnity) assuming the maximum combined state and federal tax rate on such payments and taking into account the deductibility of state income tax on federal tax returns for purposes of such calculation.

8.4 Complete Agreement. This Agreement, including the Exhibits and Schedules hereto, constitutes the entire agreement and supersedes all other prior and contemporaneous agreements and undertakings, both written and oral, between the parties hereto with regard to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement (a) is not intended to confer upon any Person any rights or remedies hereunder or with respect to the subject matter hereof except as specifically provided in this Agreement; and (b) may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which counterparts shall together constitute a single agreement. Facsimile signatures shall be fully binding and effective for all purposes as if they were original signatures.

8.5 Further Action. Sellers hereby agree that, from time to time after the Closing, at Purchasers’ request and without further consideration, Sellers shall execute and deliver such other instruments of conveyance, assignment and transfer and take such other actions as Purchasers reasonably may require to more effectively convey, transfer to and invest in Purchasers, and to put Purchasers in possession of, all of the Assets. Each Seller irrevocably appoints Purchasers as his or its attorneys-in-fact to execute and deliver such instruments necessary or convenient to convey, transfer to and invest title in Purchasers, and to put Purchasers in possession of, all of the Assets.

8.6 Notices.  All notices, requests, demands and other communications under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been received five business days after having been deposited in the United States mail and enclosed in a registered or certified post-paid envelope; at the open of business on the next succeeding business day after having been sent by overnight courier; when scanned by telegraphic communications equipment of the sending party on a business day, or otherwise at the open of business on the next succeeding business day; or when personally delivered on a business day or otherwise at the open of business on the next succeeding business day; and, in each case, addressed to the respective parties at the addresses stated below, or to such other changed addresses that the parties may have fixed by notice in accordance herewith.

8.7 Publicity Without the prior consent of the other party, no party shall, and each party shall cause its directors, officers, shareholders, members, employees, representatives and agents not to, make any public statement or press release with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or otherwise disclose to any Person the existence, terms, content or effect of this Agreement; provided, however, that if a disclosure is required by law or regulation, the party required to make such disclosure shall be permitted to make such disclosure but shall make a good faith effort to consult with the other party hereto before making such disclosure; and provided further, however, that Sellers consent to the disclosure and filing of this Agreement and its Exhibits by GCI with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.

8.8 Mediation. In the event that any dispute relating to or arising out of this Agreement, or any document delivered in connection herewith (“Dispute”), cannot be settled or compromised within twenty (20) days of receipt of the subject claim, the Dispute shall be submitted to mediation on an expedited basis in Los Angeles, California, administered by JAMS, or its successor, in accordance with the JAMS rules and procedures then in effect. Either party may commence mediation by providing to JAMS and the other party a written request for mediation, setting forth the subject of the Dispute and the relief requested, with the expectation that the first mediation shall occur within thirty (30) days of such written request. Purchasers and Sellers will cooperate with JAMS and with one another in selecting a neutral mediator from the JAMS panel of neutrals and in scheduling the mediation proceedings. The mediator must be a retired judge or an attorney licensed to practice law in Los Angeles, California and experienced with the subject matter of the Dispute. If the parties are unable to select the mediator, JAMS shall designate the mediator. Purchasers and Sellers covenant that they will participate in the mediation in good faith and that they will share equally in the costs of the mediator and related JAMS administrative costs. All offers, promises, conduct and statements, whether oral or written, made in the course of the mediation by any of the parties, their agents, employees, experts and attorneys, and by the mediator and any JAMS employees, are confidential, privileged and inadmissible for any purpose, including impeachment, in any arbitration, litigation or other proceeding involving the parties, provided that evidence that is otherwise admissible or discoverable shall not be rendered inadmissible or non-discoverable as a result of its use in the mediation. Either party may seek equitable relief in the Superior Court situated in Los Angeles, California prior to the mediation to preserve the status quo pending the completion of that process. In the event it is necessary, any party may file a motion in such Superior Court to compel the other party to participate in the mediation and the prevailing party shall be awarded its costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees in connection with such motion. If the Dispute is not resolved within ten (10) days after the first mediation session, either party may (i) give written notice to JAMS and the other party that the mediation is terminated and (ii) commence a court action.
