Section 5.1 Restrictions on Disposition of Interests.

(a) [Intentionally Omitted.]

(b) No Shareholder may transfer any Equity Securities (each such Shareholder, a “Transferor”) unless: (i) such transfer is in compliance with the other provisions of this Section 5.1 and is effected: (x) in compliance with the applicable provisions of Sections 5.2, 5.3, 5.4 and 5.5 hereof; (y) to a Permitted Transferee; or (z) pursuant to Article IX or Section 7.2 of the Stock Purchase Agreement or pursuant to any Stock Pledge Agreement, and (ii) such transfer of Equity Securities is made on the books of the Company. In addition, no Shareholder may transfer any Equity Securities pursuant to Section 5.2 to an Affiliate of such Shareholder unless such Affiliate is a Permitted Transferee.

(c) Any purported transfer of Equity Securities other than in accordance with this Agreement by any Transferor shall be null and void, and the Company shall refuse to recognize any such transfer for any purpose and shall not reflect in its records any change in record ownership of Equity Securities pursuant to any such transfer.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing and except in connection with a Change of Control of the Company, no Shareholder shall, at any time during the term of this Agreement, transfer any Equity Securities to any Person that is a direct competitor of the Company or that is disreputable (in either case, as determined in good faith by the CVC Shareholders), unless otherwise agreed by the CVC Shareholders.

(e) For the avoidance of doubt, the transfer, sale, exchange, assignment, pledge, gift, hypothecation or other disposition of Stock in any CVC Shareholder shall not constitute a “transfer” of Equity Securities for purposes of this Agreement so long as, after consummation of such transfer, sale, exchange, assignment, pledge, gift, hypothecation or other disposition, such CVC Shareholder remains controlled by Citigroup Inc. (or any successor thereto).

Section 5.2 Rights of First Offer.

(a) Subject to the provisions of Section 5.1(a), if a Shareholder (the “Transferring Shareholder”) desires at any time to transfer any of its Equity Securities (including through the transfer, sale, exchange, assignment, pledge, gift, hypothecation or other disposition of Stock in any Shareholder, or direct or indirect parent thereof, all or substantially all of whose assets are Equity Securities or ownership or control rights in Equity Securities) (the “Transfer Shares”) to a Person (other than a Permitted Transferee), such Transferring Shareholder shall give to the other Shareholders and the Company (the “Offering Persons”) written notice (the “Offer Notice”) notifying the Offering Persons of the Transferring Shareholder’s intention to transfer all (but not less than all) the Transfer Shares, which notice shall identify the number of Transfer Shares, the date on which such Transfer Notice is sent, and any other material terms of the intended transfer (other than the price per Equity Security). The date on which such Offer Notice is sent by the Transferring Shareholder is referred to hereinafter as the “Notice Date.”

(b) Each Offering Person shall have thirty (30) days following the Notice Date to give the Transferring Shareholder a binding, irrevocable written offer to purchase all (but not less than all) the Transfer Shares at a purchase price (which shall be in cash) and upon the other material terms and conditions specified in such Offering Person’s offer (a “Purchase Notice”). If the Transferring Shareholder does not receive a Purchase Notice from an Offering Person within the thirty (30)-day period specified above, such Offering Person shall be deemed to have declined to purchase the Transfer Shares pursuant to this Section 5.2.

(c) In the event that the Transferring Shareholder receives more than one Purchase Notice pursuant to Section 5.2(b), the Transferring Shareholder shall either: (i) decline the offer set forth in the Most Favorable Purchase Notice (as defined below) in accordance with Section 5.2(d); or (ii) accept the Most Favorable Purchase Notice in accordance with Section 5.2(e), but may not accept an offer made in any other Purchase Notice (other than any Purchase Notice received by such Transferring Shareholder after any future compliance with the terms and procedures set forth in this Section 5.2 pursuant to the last sentence of Section 5.2(d) or Section 5.2(e)).

(d) In the event that the Transferring Shareholder: (i) does not receive within the thirty (30)-day period specified above a Purchase Notice in respect of all (but not less than all) of the Transfer Shares; or (ii) receives one or more Purchase Notices but does not agree to transfer all (but not less than all) of the Transfer Shares on the material terms and conditions set forth in such Purchase Notice that is, in the reasonable discretion of the Transferring Shareholder, most favorable to the Transferring Shareholder (the “Most Favorable Purchase Notice”), the Transferring Shareholder may, subject to compliance with the provisions of Section 5.1, Section 5.3 and Section 5.4, transfer to a purchaser or purchasers at any time within one hundred thirty-five (135) days following the Notice Date all (but not less than all) of the Transfer Shares. If such transfer to a purchaser or purchasers pursuant to the immediately proceeding sentence shall be effected after the Transferring Shareholder shall have refused an offer made in the Most Favorable Purchase Notice, then such subsequent transfer shall be at a price and on terms that are no less favorable to the Transferring Shareholder than those specified by the Most Favorable Purchase Notice. If the Transfer Shares are not transferred to a purchaser or purchasers for any reason within one hundred thirty-five (135) days following the Notice Date then such Transfer Shares may be transferred only by again complying with all of the terms and procedures set forth in this Section 5.2.

(e) In the event that, pursuant to a Purchase Notice, a Transferring Shareholder agrees to transfer all (but not less than all) the Transfer Shares on the material terms and conditions set forth in the Most Favorable Purchase Notice, the closing for such transaction shall take place at a time and place reasonably acceptable to the Transferring Shareholder and the Offering Person that had delivered such Purchase Notice; provided that such closing shall not occur more than one hundred and twenty (120) days after the Notice Date. If the Transfer Shares are not transferred to such Offering Person within such one hundred and twenty- (120) day period, then such Transfer Shares may be transferred only by again complying with all of the terms and procedures set forth in this Section 5.2.

(f) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the terms and conditions of this Section 5.2 will not apply to: (i) transfers of Equity Securities by a Shareholder to a Permitted Transferee; (ii) the exercise of the drag-along rights pursuant to Section 5.4 below after the second anniversary of the Closing Date; (iii) transfers by any Shareholder of any or all Equity Securities owned by such Shareholder (A) under Rule 144 of the Securities Act (as such rule may be amended from time to time or any similar rule or regulation enacted after the date of this Agreement), other than sales under Rule 144(k) of the Securities Act (as such rule may be amended from time to time) or any similar provision, rule or regulation enacted after the date of this Agreement which, upon compliance with its non-affiliate and holding period requirements, terminates the volume, manner or other restrictions set forth in Rule 144 of the Securities Act, or (B) in a Registered Offering or (iv) transfers pursuant to Article IX of the Stock Purchase Agreement, Section 7.2 of the Stock Purchase Agreement, or any Stock Pledge Agreement.

Section 5.3 Tag-Along Rights.

(a) If a Shareholder proposes to transfer any of its Equity Securities, including in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.2(d) or Section 5.2(e), such Shareholder (the “Selling Shareholder”) shall give written notice (a “Transfer Notice”) of such proposed transfer to the other Shareholders holding Equity Securities (the “Other Shareholders”) at least sixty (60) days prior to the consummation of such proposed transfer, setting forth: (i) the number of Equity Securities proposed to be transferred; (ii) the consideration to be received by the Selling Shareholder for such Equity Securities; (iii) the identity of the proposed transferee; (iv) the date of the proposed transfer; (v) the date on which the Transfer Notice was sent; (vi) any other material terms and conditions of the proposed transfer (other than, in cases where a CVC Shareholder or any of its Permitted Transferees is the Selling Shareholder, terms and conditions relating to the disposition or voting of Equity Securities or the management of the Company after the consummation of the transfer that may benefit such CVC Shareholder or any of its Permitted Transferees or by which a CVC Shareholder or any of its Permitted Transferees may be bound); and (vii) that each such Other Shareholder shall have the right to elect to transfer up to its Pro Rata Portion of such Equity Securities.

(b) Upon delivery of a Transfer Notice, each Other Shareholder may elect to transfer up to the Pro Rata Portion of its Equity Securities pursuant to the same terms and conditions, including price per Equity Security (including with respect to non-voting Equity Securities), applicable to the Equity Securities of the Selling Shareholder (other than, in cases where a CVC Shareholder or any of its Permitted Transferees is the Selling Shareholder, terms and conditions relating to the disposition or voting of Equity Securities or the management of the Company after the consummation of the transfer that may benefit such the CVC Shareholder or any of its Permitted Transferees or by which a CVC Shareholder or any of its Permitted Transferees may be bound), by sending written notice to the Selling Shareholder within thirty (30) days following the sending of the Transfer Notice, indicating its election to transfer up to the Pro Rata Portion of its Equity Securities in the same transaction, in which case the number of Equity Securities to be sold by the Selling Shareholder shall be reduced by such amount (if necessary). If any Other Shareholder has not indicated a desire to transfer all of its Pro Rata Portion of its Equity Securities permitted to be sold pursuant to this Section 5.3, within such thirty (30)-day period, then such Other Shareholder shall be deemed not to have exercised its rights under this Section 5.3. Following the expiration of the thirty (30)-day period specified above, each of the Selling Shareholder and each electing Other Shareholder, concurrently with the Selling Shareholder, shall be permitted to transfer to the transferee set forth in the Transfer Notice, on the terms and conditions set forth in the Transfer Notice, such number of Equity Securities determined in accordance with this Section 5.3.

(c) The closing of the sale of the Selling Shareholder’s Equity Securities to the prospective purchaser hereunder shall be conditioned on the simultaneous purchase by such purchaser of the Pro Rata Portion of Equity Securities from each electing Other Shareholder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event any electing Other Shareholder breaches any obligation it may have under this Section 5.3 or, in the event that any representation and warranty of any electing Other Shareholder contained in the purchase agreement with the prospective purchaser is not true and correct as of the date made or as of the proposed closing date or the electing Other Shareholder shall fail to perform any covenant or agreement contained in such agreement or the electing Other Shareholder shall otherwise breach its obligations under such agreement and, in each case, such misrepresentation, breach or failure to perform such covenant or agreement results in the nonsatisfaction of a condition precedent to such agreement (and the prospective purchaser does not waive such condition precedent), the Selling Shareholder shall be free to transfer its Equity Securities to the prospective purchaser without liability to the electing Other Shareholder under this Agreement and such sale shall not limit or waive in any respect any claim, right or cause of action that the Selling Shareholder may have against such electing Other Shareholder in respect of such breach. Furthermore, the Selling Shareholder shall not be obligated to consummate the transfer of Equity Securities contemplated by an agreement between the Selling Shareholder and a prospective purchaser if, pursuant to the terms and conditions of such agreement, the Selling Shareholder is not obligated to do so and, in the event the Selling Shareholder elects not to consummate a transfer which it is not obligated to consummate as provided in this sentence, the Selling Shareholder shall have no liability to any other Shareholder (which term includes, without limitation, any electing Other Shareholder).

(d) Without limiting the generality of the other provisions of this Section 5.3, in the event that the Selling Shareholder intends to transfer its Equity Securities pursuant to an IPO (it being specified that nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to give any Shareholder a right to cause the Company to undertake or participate in a Registered Offering), the Selling Shareholder shall include such information in the Transfer Notice. In such event the underwriter or underwriters of such IPO shall be selected by the CVC Shareholders, and the right of any electing Other Shareholder to transfer its Equity Securities pursuant to Section 5.3(b) shall be conditioned upon such electing Other Shareholder’s participation in the underwriting of such IPO, acceptance of the underwriter or underwriters selected by the CVC Shareholders, the inclusion of such electing Other Shareholder’s Equity Securities in the underwriting, and such electing Other Shareholder’s compliance with all applicable Laws and stock exchange regulations. All Shareholders proposing to transfer their Equity Securities pursuant to such IPO shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriter or underwriters selected by the CVC Shareholders (including, in particular, the entering into Lock-Up Agreements). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 5.3, if the underwriter advises the Selling Shareholder that marketing factors require a limitation of the number of Equity Securities underwritten, then the Selling Shareholder shall so advise all electing Other Shareholders, and the number of Equity Securities that may be included in the IPO by the Selling Shareholder and each electing Other Shareholders shall be reduced by a ratio equal to the ratio of the number of Equity Securities thereby withdrawn from the IPO to the total number of Equity Securities included in such IPO prior to such withdrawal.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the terms and conditions of this Section 5.3 shall not apply to: (i) transfers of Equity Securities by a Shareholder to a Permitted Transferee; (ii) transfers of Equity Securities in a Registered Offering other than an IPO; (iii) transfers pursuant to Article IX of the Stock Purchase Agreement, Section 7.2 of the Stock Purchase Agreement, or any Stock Pledge Agreement; or (iv) transfers by any Shareholder of any or all Equity Securities owned by such Shareholder under Rule 144 of the Securities Act (as such rule may be amended from time to time or any similar rule or regulation enacted after the date of this Agreement), other than sales under Rule 144(k) of the Securities Act (as such rule may be amended from time to time) or any similar provision, rule or regulation enacted after the date of this Agreement which, upon compliance with its non-affiliate and holding period requirements, terminates the volume, manner or other restrictions set forth in Rule 144 of the Securities Act.

Section 5.4 Drag-Along Rights. In the event that the CVC Shareholders wish to transfer Equity Securities Controlled by it and its Permitted Transferees representing 50.1% or more of the voting power of outstanding Equity Securities to one or more transferees (whether by merger or otherwise) other than to a Permitted Transferee, and said transferee or transferees desire to acquire 50.1% or more of the outstanding Equity Securities in the Company Controlled by the CVC Shareholders and their Permitted Transferees upon the same terms and conditions as agreed to with the CVC Shareholders, then, at the sole discretion of the CVC Shareholders, the CVC Shareholders may cause one or more other Shareholders (the “Dragged Shareholders”) to transfer all of its or their Equity Securities to said transferee or transferees (or to vote such Equity Securities in favor of any merger or other transaction which would effect a transfer of such Equity Securities and to waive its appraisal or dissenters’ rights with respect to such transaction) at the same price (including with respect to non-voting Equity Securities) and on the same terms and conditions as agreed to by the CVC Shareholders, provided that the Dragged Shareholders will have no obligation to make representations and warranties or give indemnities regarding the condition of the Company (provided that any drag along rights exercised against any Additional Shareholder or the Centel Shareholders shall only be exercised on a proportionate basis against all Additional Shareholders and the Centel Shareholders). In such case, the CVC Shareholders shall give written notice of such transfer to each other Shareholder the Equity Securities of which the CVC Shareholders intend to cause to be transferred pursuant to this Section 5.4 at least forty-five (45) days prior to the consummation of such transfer or vote, setting forth: (i) the consideration to be received by the Shareholders; (ii) the identity of the transferee or transferees; (iii) the date of the proposed transfer; and (iv) any other material terms and conditions of the proposed transfer.

Section 5.5 [Intentionally Omitted.]

Section 5.6 Closing Transactions. In the event the Offering Persons receive an Offer Notice pursuant to Section 5.2, the Other Shareholders receive a Transfer Notice pursuant to Section 5.3, the Dragged Shareholders receive a notice pursuant to Section 5.4, each Offering Person (with respect to Section 5.2), each Other Shareholder (with respect to Section 5.3) or each Dragged Shareholder (with respect to Section 5.4) as the case may be, agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts, in good faith and in a timely matter, to take, or cause to be taken, all Necessary Actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things reasonable necessary, proper or advisable, under applicable Law (including, without limitation, to ensure that all appropriate requirements of Law are met and all Consents of third Persons are obtained, in each case, with respect to the transfer by such Offering Person, Other Shareholder, Dragged Shareholder or Centel Shareholders as the case may be), to consummate the proposed transactions contemplated by Sections 5.2, 5.3, 5.4 or 5.5, as the case may be. All reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Offering Persons, Other Shareholders, Dragged Shareholders, Centel Shareholders or the Company, as the case may be, in connection with a transfer made pursuant to Sections 5.2, 5.3, 5.4 or 5.5 (including, without limitation, all costs and disbursements, finders’ fees or brokerage commissions but excluding the fees and disbursements of counsel which shall be borne independently by each Offering Person, Other Shareholder, Dragged Shareholder, Centel Shareholders or the Company, as the case may be), or to be paid by Offering Persons, Other Shareholders, Dragged Shareholders or Centel Shareholders as provided for in the relevant purchase agreement, shall be allocated pro rata among the Offering Persons, Other Shareholders, Dragged Shareholders or Centel Shareholders as the case may be, based upon the number of Equity Securities sold by each such Shareholder.

This Agreement (together with the Schedules and Exhibits hereto and the letter dated October 30, 2008, between Co-Invest and the Centel Shareholders) contains the entire agreement among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings (including the Letter of Interest), oral or written, with respect to such matters.

Section 7.6 Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction; Selection of Forum. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. EACH OF THE PARTIES HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES AND RENOUNCES THE JURISDICTION OF ANY MEXICAN COURT AND AGREES THAT IT SHALL BRING ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN RESPECT OF ANY CLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTAINED IN OR CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT, WHETHER IN TORT OR CONTRACT OR AT LAW OR IN EQUITY, EXCLUSIVELY IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK OR, IF SUCH COURT DOES NOT HAVE SUBJECT MATTER JURISDICTION, THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK FOR THE COUNTY OF NEW YORK (THE “CHOSEN COURTS”). EACH PARTY (I) IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE CHOSEN COURTS, (II) WAIVES ANY OBJECTION, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, TO LAYING VENUE IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN THE CHOSEN COURTS, (III) WAIVES ANY OBJECTION, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THAT THE CHOSEN COURTS ARE AN INCONVENIENT FORUM OR DO NOT HAVE JURISDICTION OVER ANY PARTY HERETO, (IV) AGREES THAT MAILING OF PROCESS OR OTHER PAPERS IN CONNECTION WITH ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN THE MANNER PROVIDED IN SECTIONS 7.3 (NOTICES) AND 7.7 (SERVICE OF PROCESS) OF THIS AGREEMENT OR IN SUCH OTHER MANNER AS MAY BE PERMITTED BY LAW SHALL BE VALID AND SUFFICIENT SERVICE THEREOF AND (V) AGREES THAT A FINAL JUDGMENT IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE CONCLUSIVE AND MAY BE ENFORCED IN OTHER JURISDICTIONS BY SUIT ON THE JUDGMENT OR IN ANY OTHER MANNER PROVIDED BY APPLICABLE LAW.

Section 7.7 Service of Process.

Such appointment shall be irrevocable until the date that is one (1) year after such Centel Shareholder ceases to be a Shareholder of the Company (the “Appointment Period”), except that if for any reason the Process Agent appointed hereby ceases to act as such, such Centel Shareholder will, by an instrument reasonably satisfactory to the Company, appoint another Person in the Borough of Manhattan, New York as such Process Agent for the duration of the Appointment Period subject to the approval (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld) of the Company. Each Centel Shareholder hereby further irrevocably consents to the service of process in any suit, action or proceeding in said courts by the mailing thereof by the Company by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, at its address set forth in Section 7.3 for the duration of the Appointment Period. Each Centel Shareholder covenants and agrees that it shall take any and all reasonable action, including the execution and filing of any and all documents, that may be necessary to continue the designation of a Process Agent pursuant to this Section in full force and effect for the duration of the Appointment Period and to cause the Process Agent to act as such.

Section 7.9 Severability. The provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed severable and the invalidity or unenforceability of any provision shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the other provisions hereof unless such invalidity or unenforceability, after taking into account the mitigation contemplated by the next sentence, deprives a Party of a material benefit contemplated by this Agreement. If any provision of this Agreement, or the application thereof to any Person or any circumstance, is invalid or unenforceable: (a) subject to, in the case of the Restrictive Covenants, the provisions of Section 4.2(e), a suitable and equitable provision shall be substituted therefor in order to carry out, as far as may be valid and enforceable, the intent and purpose of such invalid or unenforceable provision; and (b) the remainder of this Agreement and the application of such provision to other Persons or circumstances shall not be affected by such invalidity or unenforceability, nor shall such invalidity or unenforceability affect the validity or enforceability of such provision, or the application thereof, in any other jurisdiction.

Section 7.10 Assignment. Other than as expressly permitted or required by this Agreement, no Party may assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other Parties, except that the Company may engage in collateral assignments to the financing sources (and their assignees) providing financing to the Company and/or its Subsidiaries in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Stock Purchase Agreement (and their assignees). Any assignment or transfer in violation of this Section 7.10 shall be null and void ab initio.

Section 7.11 Parties in Interest; No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any Person other than the Parties or their successors and permitted assigns, any rights or remedies under or by reason of this Agreement.

Section 7.12 Judgment Currency. Each reference to U.S. dollars in this Agreement is of the essence, and the obligations of any Shareholders under this Agreement to make payment in U.S. dollars shall not be discharged or satisfied by any currency or recovery pursuant to any judgment expressed in or converted into any other currency or in another place except to the extent to which such tender or recovery shall result in the effective receipt by the Company of the full amount of Dollars expressed to be payable hereunder, and each Shareholder shall indemnify the Company (as an alternative or additional cause of action) for the amount (if any) by which such effective receipt shall fall short of the full amount of Dollars expressed to be payable hereunder and such obligation to indemnify shall not be affected by judgment being obtained for any other sums due hereunder.

Section 7.13 Amendment and Waiver. Any provision of this Agreement may be amended or waived if, and only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and signed, in the case of an amendment, by: (i) the CVC Shareholders and (ii) such number of Non-CVC Shareholders that Control Equity Securities representing (without duplication) more than 50% of the aggregate number of outstanding Equity Securities Controlled by all Non-CVC Shareholders, or in the case of a waiver, by the Party or Parties against whom the waiver is to be effective, it being specified that a waiver by such number of Non-CVC Shareholders that Control Equity Securities representing (without duplication) more than 50% of the aggregate number of outstanding Equity Securities Controlled by Non-CVC Shareholders shall constitute a valid waiver by all Non-CVC Shareholders; provided that, unless all of the non-voting Equity Securities Controlled by such Centel Shareholder (and any Permitted Transferee thereof) are exchanged for voting Equity Securities, no amendments shall be made (i) to the final proviso of Section 7.1 or (ii) that would disproportionately and adversely affect the Equity Securities held by the Centel Shareholders, without the consent of Centel Shareholders representing more than 50% of the aggregate number of outstanding Equity Securities Controlled by the Centel Shareholders; provided further that, in the event of any amendment to Section 5.3 without the consent of Centel Shareholders representing more than 50% of the aggregate number of outstanding Equity Securities Controlled by the Centel Shareholders, each Centel Shareholder’s rights and obligations, and each other Shareholder’s rights and obligations in respect of such Centel Shareholder, under Section 5.3 shall not be amended unless all of the non-voting Equity Securities Controlled by such Centel Shareholder (and any Permitted Transferee thereof) are exchanged for voting Equity Securities. No failure or delay by any Party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.

Section 7.14 Additional Shareholders’ Representatives. (a) Each of the Additional Shareholders and their Permitted Transferees irrevocably appoint Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx (and, in the event Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx is unable or unwilling to serve, Xxxxx Xxxxxx), as its agent and attorney-in-fact (the “Additional Shareholders’ Representative”), to take any action required or permitted to be taken by the Additional Shareholders and their Permitted Transferees under the terms of this Agreement, including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the giving and receipt of any notices to be delivered or received by or on behalf of the Additional Shareholders and their Permitted Transferees, the payment of expenses relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and (subject to Section 7.13) the right to waive, modify or amend any of the terms of this Agreement, and agree to be bound by any and all actions taken by the Additional Shareholders’ Representative on behalf of the Additional Shareholders and their Permitted Transferees. If neither Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx nor Xxxxx Xxxxxx are willing and able to serve as the Additional Shareholders’ Representative, a substitute representative shall be appointed by the Additional Shareholders and their Permitted Transferees holding a majority of the voting power of all Equity Securities held by Additional Shareholders and their Permitted Transferees. In the event of a replacement of an Additional Shareholders’ Representative, the Additional Shareholders’ Representative that is being replaced shall promptly notify the CVC Shareholders, the Shalom Shareholders and the Company of such change, and until such notification, the Additional Shareholders’ Representative that is being replaced shall be deemed to be the Additional Shareholders’ Representative in any dealings with the CVC Shareholders, the Shalom Shareholders or the Company under this Agreement.

(b) The CVC Shareholders, the Shalom Shareholders and the Company, respectively, shall be entitled to rely exclusively upon any communications or writings given or executed by the Additional Shareholders’ Representative and shall not be liable in any manner whatsoever for any action taken or not taken in reliance upon the actions taken or not taken or communications or writings given or executed by such Additional Shareholders’ Representative. the CVC Shareholders, the Shalom Shareholders and the Company shall be entitled to disregard any notices or communications given or made by the Additional Shareholders or their Permitted Transferees or any party or parties on their behalf, as the case may be, unless given or made through the Additional Shareholders’ Representative.

Section 7.15 Centel Shareholders’ Representative. By virtue of their execution of this Agreement, the Centel Shareholders shall be deemed to have irrevocably constituted and appointed and, if necessary, delivered a separate written power of attorney, duly executed, acknowledged and notarized, Xxxxx Xxxxxxx (in such capacity the “Centel Shareholders’ Representative”), as their true and lawful agent and attorney-in-fact to enter into any agreement in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, to exercise all or any of the powers, authority and discretion conferred on it under any such agreement, to waive any terms and conditions of any such agreement, to give and receive notices and communications, to agree to, negotiate, enter into settlements and compromises of, and demand arbitration and comply with orders of courts and awards of arbitrators with respect to such claims, and to take all actions necessary or appropriate in the judgment of the Centel Shareholders’ Representative for the accomplishment of the foregoing. The Centel Shareholders shall be bound by all actions taken by the Centel Shareholders’ Representative in its capacity thereof. The CVC Shareholders, the Shalom Shareholders, the Additional Shareholders and the Company, respectively, shall be entitled to rely on all statements, representations and decisions of the Centel Shareholders’ Representative.

Section 7.16 Construction. This Agreement has been negotiated by the Parties and their respective counsel in good faith and will be fairly interpreted in accordance with its terms and without any strict construction in favor of or against any Party.

Section 7.17 Specific Performance. The Parties hereto agree that the obligations imposed on them in this Agreement are special, unique and of an extraordinary character, and that, in the event of breach by any Party, damages would not be an adequate remedy and each of the other Parties shall be entitled to specific performance and injunctive and other equitable relief in addition to any other remedy to which it may be entitled, at law or in equity; and the Parties hereto further agree to waive any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with the obtaining of any such injunctive or other equitable relief.
