The parties acknowledge that certain of the Services will be performed by officers, employees or consultants of the Provider, who may also serve, from time to time, as officers, employees or consultants of other companies, including, without limitation, LMAC, Qurate Retail, Inc. (“Qurate”), Liberty Broadband Corporation (“LBC”) and Liberty TripAdvisor Holdings, Inc. (“LTAH”).

Section 1.3 Services Not to Interfere with the Provider’s Business. LMAC acknowledges and agrees that in providing Services hereunder the Provider will not be required to take any action that would disrupt, in any material respect, the orderly operation of the Provider’s business activities.

Section 1.4 Services Fee.

(a) For the period from the Effective Date to the expiration of the Term, LMAC agrees to pay, and the Provider agrees to accept, a monthly fee equal to $83,333, payable in arrears (the “Services Fee”); provided, that the first payment following the Effective Date shall be prorated based on the number of days after (but excluding) the Effective Date until (and including) the last day of the calendar month in an amount equal to one-thirtieth of the Services Fee per day; provided, further, that upon the consummation by LMAC of the Initial Business Combination (as defined below), the Provider and LMAC will review and evaluate (and thereafter will review and evaluate semiannually) the Services Fee for reasonableness during the Term and will negotiate in good faith to reach agreement on any appropriate adjustments to the Services Fee, and based on such review and evaluation, Provider and LMAC will agree on the appropriate effective date (which may be retroactive, but in no event earlier than the date of the consummation by LMAC of the Initial Business Combination) of any such adjustment to the Services Fee.

(b) LMAC will pay the Provider the Services Fee by wire or intrabank transfer of funds or in such other reasonable manner specified by the Provider to LMAC, in arrears on or before the last day of each calendar month following the Effective Date.

Section 1.5 Survival. LMAC’s obligation to pay the Services Fee shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement with respect to such amounts as are payable in respect of the period of time prior to the effective date of such expiration or termination.

Section 1.6 LMAC Trust Account. Notwithstanding Article IV, Article V or anything contained herein to the contrary, the Provider hereby irrevocably waives any and all right, title, interest, causes of action and claims of any kind or nature whatsoever (each, a “Claim”) in or to, and any and all right to seek payment of any amounts due to it out of, the trust account established for the benefit of the public stockholders of LMAC and into which substantially all of the proceeds of LMAC’s initial public offering will be deposited (the “Trust Account”), and hereby irrevocably waives any Claim it presently has or may have in the future as a result of, or arising out of, this Agreement, which Claim would reduce, encumber or otherwise adversely affect the Trust Account or any monies or other assets in the Trust Account, and further agrees not to seek recourse, reimbursement, payment or satisfaction of any Claim against the Trust Account or any monies or other assets in the Trust Account for any reason whatsoever.

ARTICLE II

TERM

Section 2.1 Term. The term of this Agreement (the “Term”) will commence on the Effective Date and will continue until terminated in accordance with Section 2.2.

Section 2.2 Termination. This Agreement will be terminated prior to the expiration of the Term in the following events:

(a) upon mutual written agreement of the parties hereto;

(b) immediately upon written notice (or at any later time specified in such notice) by the Provider to LMAC if a Change in Control occurs with respect to LMAC following the consummation by LMAC of an initial business combination (as described in the Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-250188) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission) (the “Initial Business Combination”); or

(c) immediately upon written notice (or at any later time specified in such notice) by LMAC to the Provider if a Change in Control occurs with respect to the Provider following the consummation by LMAC of the Initial Business Combination.

For purposes of this Section 2.2, a “Change in Control” will be deemed to have occurred with respect to a party if a merger, consolidation, binding share exchange, acquisition, or similar transaction (each, a “Transaction”), or series of related Transactions, involving such party occurs as a result of which the voting power of all voting securities of such party outstanding immediately prior thereto represent (either by remaining outstanding or being converted into voting securities of the surviving entity) less than 75% of the voting power of such party or the surviving entity of the Transaction outstanding immediately after such Transaction (or if such party or the surviving entity after giving effect to such Transaction is a subsidiary of the issuer of securities in such Transaction, then the voting power of all voting securities of such party outstanding immediately prior to such Transaction represent (by being converted into voting securities of such issuer) less than 75% of the voting power of the issuer outstanding immediately after such Transaction). For the avoidance of doubt, the consummation of the Initial Business Combination shall not be deemed to constitute a Change in Control with respect to LMAC.

Each party will remain liable to the other for any required payment accrued prior to the termination of this Agreement.

ARTICLE III

PERSONNEL AND EMPLOYEES

Section 3.1 Personnel to Provide Services.

(a) The Provider will make available to LMAC, on a non-exclusive basis, certain employees, independent contractors or other personnel engaged by Provider (the “Personnel”) to perform the Services.

(b)   LMAC acknowledges that certain of the Personnel also will be performing services for the Provider, Qurate, LBC, LTAH and/or other companies, from time to time, including certain Subsidiaries and Affiliates of each of the foregoing, in each case, while also potentially performing services directly for LMAC irrespective of this Agreement.

Section 3.2 Provider as Payor. The parties acknowledge and agree that the Provider, and not LMAC, will be solely responsible for the payment of salaries, wages, benefits (including health insurance, retirement, and other similar benefits, if any) and other compensation applicable to all Personnel. All Personnel will be subject to the personnel policies of the Provider. The Provider will be responsible for the payment of all federal, state, and local withholding taxes on the compensation of all Personnel and other such employment related taxes as are required by law.

INDEMNIFICATION

Section 4.1 Indemnification by the Provider. Following the consummation by LMAC of the Initial Business Combination, the Provider will indemnify, defend, and hold harmless LMAC and each of its Subsidiaries, officers, directors, employees and agents, successors and assigns (collectively, the “LMAC Indemnitees”), from and against any and all judgments, Liabilities, losses, costs, damages, or expenses, including reasonable attorney’s fees, disbursements, and costs (collectively, “Losses”), incurred in connection with any Action brought by a third party (a “Third-Party Claim”) (including but not limited to defending or avoiding any such Action) arising from or out of, or relating to the gross negligence, willful misconduct, fraud, or bad faith of the Provider in connection with the performance of any provision of this Agreement (the “Provider Indemnification Matter”); provided, that notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provisions of this Agreement, at any time during the Term, the Provider shall not be liable, responsible or accountable to the LMAC Indemnitees for any Losses incurred by the LMAC Indemnitees for any act or omission by the Provider unless such conduct constitutes gross negligence, willful misconduct, fraud, or bad faith of the Provider.

Section 4.2 Indemnification by LMAC. Following the consummation by LMAC of the Initial Business Combination, LMAC will indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the Provider and its Subsidiaries, Affiliates, officers, directors, employees and agents, successors and assigns (collectively, the “Provider Indemnitees”), from and against any and all Losses incurred in connection with any Action brought by a third party (including but not limited to defending or avoiding any Action) arising from or out of, or relating to (a) any material breach by LMAC of its obligations under this Agreement, or (b) any acts or omissions of the Provider in providing the Services pursuant to this Agreement (including for its own negligence, but except to the extent such Losses arise from the Provider Indemnification Matter); provided, that LMAC and its Subsidiaries shall be excluded from the definition of “Provider Indemnitees.”

Section 4.3 Indemnification Procedures.

(a) (i) In connection with any indemnification provided for in Section 4.1 or 4.2, the party seeking indemnification (the “Indemnitee”) will give the party from which indemnification is sought (the “Indemnitor”) prompt notice whenever it comes to the attention of the Indemnitee that the Indemnitee has suffered or incurred, or may suffer or incur, any Losses for which it is entitled to indemnification under Section 4.1 or 4.2, and, if and when known, the facts constituting the basis for such claim and the projected amount of such Losses (which shall not be conclusive as to the amount of such Losses), in each case in reasonable detail, provided that such notice will be given no later than ten business days following receipt by the Indemnitee of written notice of any Third-Party Claim as to which indemnification is available hereunder. Failure by any Indemnitee to so notify the Indemnitor will not affect the rights of such Indemnitee hereunder except to the extent that such failure has a material prejudicial effect on the defenses or other rights available to the Indemnitor with respect to such Third-Party Claim. The Indemnitee will deliver to the Indemnitor as promptly as practicable, and in any event within five business days after Indemnitee’s receipt, copies of all notices, court papers and other documents received by the Indemnitee relating to any Third-Party Claim.

(ii) The Indemnitor will be entitled, if it so elects, to take control of the defense and investigation with respect to such Third-Party Claim and to employ and engage attorneys reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnitee to handle and defend such claim, at the Indemnitor’s cost, risk and expense, upon written notice to the Indemnitee of such election, which notice acknowledges the Indemnitor’s obligation to provide indemnification under this Agreement with respect to any Losses arising out of or relating to such Third-Party Claim. The Indemnitor will not settle any Third-Party Claim that is the subject of indemnification without the written consent of the Indemnitee, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided, however, that, after reasonable notice, the Indemnitor may settle a claim without the Indemnitee’s consent if such settlement (A) makes no admission or acknowledgment of Liability or culpability with respect to the Indemnitee, (B) includes a complete release of the Indemnitee and (C) does not seek any relief against the Indemnitee other than the payment of money damages to be borne by the Indemnitor. The Indemnitee will cooperate in all reasonable respects with the Indemnitor and its attorneys in the investigation, trial and defense of any lawsuit or action with respect to such claim and any appeal arising therefrom (including the filing in the Indemnitee’s name of appropriate cross-claims and counterclaims). The Indemnitee may, at its own cost, participate in any investigation, trial and defense of any Third-Party Claim controlled by the Indemnitor and any appeal arising therefrom, including participating in the process with respect to the potential settlement or compromise thereof. If the Indemnitee has been advised by its counsel that there may be one or more legal defenses available to the Indemnitee that conflict with those available to, or that are not available to, the Indemnitor (“Separate Legal Defenses”), or that there may be actual or potential differing or conflicting interests between the Indemnitor and the Indemnitee in the conduct of the defense of such Third-Party Claim, the Indemnitee will have the right, at the expense of the Indemnitor, to engage separate counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnitor to handle and defend such Third-Party Claim, provided, that, if such Third-Party Claim can be reasonably separated between those portion(s) for which Separate Legal Defenses are available (“Separable Claims”) and those for which no Separate Legal Defenses are available, the Indemnitee will instead have the right, at the expense of the Indemnitor, to engage separate counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnitor to handle and defend the Separable Claims, and the Indemnitor will not have the right to control the defense or investigation of such Third-Party Claim or such Separable Claims, as the case may be (and, in which latter case, the Indemnitor will have the right to control the defense or investigation of the remaining portion(s) of such Third-Party Claim).

(iii) With respect to any Third-Party Claim as to which indemnification is available hereunder, the Indemnitor does not undertake to defend the Indemnitee against such Third-Party Claim, whether by not giving the Indemnitee timely notice of its election to so defend or otherwise, the Indemnitee may, but will have no obligation to, assume its own defense, at the expense of the Indemnitor (including attorney’s fees and costs), it being understood that the Indemnitee’s right to indemnification for such Third-Party Claim shall not be adversely affected by its assuming the defense of such Third-Party Claim. The Indemnitor will be bound by the result obtained with respect thereto by the Indemnitee; provided, that the Indemnitee may not settle any lawsuit or action with respect to which the Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification hereunder without the consent of the Indemnitor, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided further, that such consent shall not be required if (i) the Indemnitor had the right under this Section 4.3 to undertake control of the defense of such Third-Party Claim and, after notice, failed to do so within thirty days of receipt of such notice (or such lesser period as may be required by court proceedings in the event of a litigated matter), or (ii) (x) the Indemnitor does not have the right to control the defense of the entirety of such Third-Party Claim pursuant to Section 4.3(a)(ii) or (y) the Indemnitor does not have the right to control the defense of any Separable Claim pursuant to Section 4.3(a)(ii) (in which case such settlement may only apply to such Separable Claims), the Indemnitee provides reasonable notice to Indemnitor of the settlement, and such settlement (A) makes no admission or acknowledgment of Liability or culpability with respect to the Indemnitor, (B) does not seek any relief against the Indemnitor and (C) does not seek any relief against the Indemnitee for which the Indemnitor is responsible other than the payment of money damages.

(b) In no event will the Indemnitor be liable to any Indemnitee for any special, consequential, indirect, collateral, incidental or punitive damages, however caused and on any theory of liability arising in any way out of this Agreement, whether or not such Indemnitor was advised of the possibility of any such damages; provided, that the foregoing limitations shall not limit a party’s indemnification obligations for any Losses incurred by an Indemnitee as a result of the assertion of a Third-Party Claim.

(c) The Indemnitor and the Indemnitee shall use commercially reasonable efforts to avoid production of confidential information, and to cause all communications among employees, counsel and others representing any party with respect to a Third-Party Claim to be made so as to preserve any applicable attorney-client or work-product privilege.

(d) The Indemnitor shall pay all amounts payable pursuant to this Section 4.3 by wire transfer of immediately available funds, promptly following receipt from an Indemnitee of a xxxx, together with all accompanying reasonably detailed backup documentation, for any Losses that are the subject of indemnification hereunder, unless the Indemnitor in good faith disputes the amount of such Losses or whether such Losses are covered by the Indemnitor’s indemnification obligation in which event the Indemnitor shall promptly so notify the Indemnitee. In any event, the Indemnitor shall pay to the Indemnitee, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, the amount of any Losses for which it is liable hereunder no later than three (3) days following any final determination of the amount of such Losses and the Indemnitor’s liability therefor. A “final determination” shall exist when (a) the parties to the dispute have reached an agreement in writing or (b) a court of competent jurisdiction shall have entered a final and non-appealable order or judgment.

(e) The remedies provided in this Section 4.3 shall be cumulative and shall not preclude assertion by any Indemnitee of any other rights or the seeking of any and all other remedies against an Indemnitor, subject to Section 4.3(b).

(f) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Indemnitor will indemnify the Indemnitee against any and all reasonable fees, costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees), incurred in connection with the enforcement of his, her or its rights under this Article IV.

Section 4.4 Survival. The terms and conditions of this Article IV will survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement.
