At the request of Advance/Xxxxxxxx, TWE shall provide Advance/Xxxxxxxx with
prompt and complete access to all working papers and relevant supporting

discrepancy or discrepancies believed to exist (it being understood for the
avoidance of doubt no discrepancy may exist with respect to the amount in clause
(ii) or (iv) in Section 3.2(d) (the "Debt Discrepancy Statement").
Advance/Xxxxxxxx and TWE shall attempt to jointly resolve any discrepancy set
forth in the Debt Discrepancy Statement within 30 days after receipt thereof,

shall within 10 days following the expiration of such 30-day period, jointly
designate a nationally known independent certified public accounting firm to
review the Debt Notice, together with the Debt Discrepancy Statement, and any
other relevant documents. If Advance/Xxxxxxxx and TWE do not agree upon such
firm within such 10-day period, then such review shall be performed by a
nationally known independent certified public accounting firm selected by two
other nationally known independent certified public accounting firms, one
selected by TWE and one selected by Advance/Xxxxxxxx; provided that if one party
fails to notify the other party of its selection within five days of receipt
from the other party of its selection, the firm selected by the other party
shall perform such review. The cost of retaining such firm shall be borne
one-half by Advance/Xxxxxxxx and one-half by TWE. Such firm shall report its
conclusion as to the Actual Assumption Amount, which shall be binding on the
parties hereto and not subject to review or dispute. The Actual Assumption
Amount shall be adjusted, if necessary, to reflect any such resolution.

hypothetical), the term "Net Debt" shall mean an amount equal to the sum of:
(i) all debt of TWEAN as of the Effective Date, including, without
limitation, all accrued and unpaid principal and interest accrued under
that certain promissory note, dated as of November 1, 2001, issued by TWEAN
in favor of Time Warner Inc.; minus
(ii) all accrued and unpaid principal, interest and return as of the
Effective Date in respect of the promissory note(s) and the preferred
interests in Road Runner that were assets of TWEAN as of the Effective Date
and which were issued in satisfaction of the funding of liabilities
described in Section 8 of the Road Runner Letter Agreement; minus
(iii) all cash and cash equivalents of TWEAN as of the Effective Date,

to, any Systems of TWEAN in the Selected Business or the Residual Business)
the cash receipts of (x) all refunds received by TWEAN on or after the
Selection Date with respect to State, Local and Other Taxes (as defined in
Annex A hereto) paid after the
8

subscriber, utility, pole rental or similar agreements (the total amount
described in this clause (iii), the "Cash Amount"); minus
(iv) the amount in excess of $4.5 million, if any, paid in cash prior
to the Effective Date by TWEAN in accordance with Section 3.1(h)(vii) of
the Partnership Agreement for the costs, fees and expenses for financings
(including refinancings of ATW's senior bank debt) consummated after the
Selection Date but on or prior to the Effective Date.
(f) On the third business day following final resolution of any discrepancy
as provided in above, or if no such discrepancy exists, following expiration of
the period in which Advance/Xxxxxxxx was permitted to deliver a Debt Discrepancy
Statement, (a) if the Actual Assumption Amount is greater than the amount of the
Assumed Debt, then Advance/Xxxxxxxx shall assume additional TWEAN debt selected
by TWE in an amount equal to such excess (plus interest thereon calculated from
the Effective Date at a rate equal to the rate charged by TWEAN's senior bank
lenders on the Effective Date, or, if TWEAN has no senior bank debt on the
Effective Date, at a rate equal to the rate charged by ATW's senior bank lenders
on the Effective Date) (which shall be considered Assumed Debt for purposes of
the Transaction Agreements), shall immediately satisfy and fully discharge such
additional Assumed Debt and shall execute and deliver to TWEAN a Debt Assumption
Agreement with respect thereto or (b) if the Actual Assumption Amount is less
than the amount of the Assumed Debt, then TWEAN shall pay cash to

calculated from the Effective Date at a rate equal to the rate charged by
TWEAN's senior bank lenders on the Effective Date, or, if TWEAN has no senior
