1.5 Effect on Capital Stock. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, at the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and this Agreement and without any action on the part of Merger Sub, the Company or the holders of any of the securities of the Company, the following shall occur:

(a) Conversion of Company Common Stock. Other than any shares to be canceled pursuant to Section 1.5(d) and shares subject to appraisal rights in accordance with Section 1.17, each share of common stock, par value $0.001, of the Company (‘‘Company Common Stock’’) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will be automatically converted (subject to Section 1.5(g)) into the right to receive on the Closing Date (i) that number of shares of common stock, par value $0.0001, of Parent (‘‘Parent Common Stock’’) determined by dividing the Aggregate Parent Common Stock Number by the Outstanding Company Stock Number and (ii) that number of the warrants issuable pursuant Section 1.5(c) (‘‘Contingent Warrants’’) determined by dividing the aggregate number of Contingent Warrants so issued by the Outstanding Company Stock Number. The ‘‘Aggregate Parent Common Stock Number’’ shall mean 2,800,000 less the Stock Reduction Number. The ‘‘Outstanding Company Stock Number’’ shall mean the number of shares of Company Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, after giving effect to all exchanges of the Company’s outstanding shares of preferred stock, par value $0.001 (‘‘Company Preferred Stock’’) and exercises or conversions of other derivative securities into shares of Company Common Stock pursuant to Section 1.15 and including any shares subject to appraisal rights in accordance with Section 1.17. The ‘‘Stock Reduction Number’’ shall mean that number of shares of Parent Common Stock equal to one-fifth of the difference between the dollar amount of all accounts payable of the Company and the dollar amount of accounts payable of the Company due within 30 days, all determined as of the close of business on the last business day of the month preceding the month in which the Closing Date occurs. In no event shall the Stock Reduction Number exceed 300,000 shares.

(b) Merger Warrants. In addition to the right to receive shares of Parent Common Stock and Contingent Warrants pursuant to Section 1.5(a), each share of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time that was issued to persons who were previously holders of the Company’s Series B Preferred Stock (the ‘‘Specified Holders’’) upon the conversion of such shares of Series B Preferred Stock into shares of Company Common Stock pursuant to Section 1.15 shall be converted into the right to receive that number of warrants to purchase shares of Parent Common Stock (‘‘Merger Warrants’’) determined by dividing the Aggregate Merger Warrants Number by the Outstanding Specified Holders Stock Number. The term ‘‘Aggregate Merger Warrants Number’’ shall mean 250,000. The Merger Warrants shall have an exercise price of $5.00 per share and shall be identical in form to the Class W warrants and Class Z warrants issued by Parent pursuant to its Prospectus dated July 13, 2005. One-half of the Merger Warrants issued to each Specified Holder shall be in the form of Parent’s Class W warrants and one-half shall be in the form of Parent’s Class Z warrants. The

term ‘‘Outstanding Specified Holders Stock Number’’ shall mean the aggregate number of shares of Company Common Stock issued to the Specified Holders upon the conversion of their shares of the Company’s Series B Preferred Stock pursuant to Section 1.15.

(i) For each of the years 2007 and 2008 with respect to which the Surviving Corporation has revenues (which, for the purpose of this Section 1.5(c), shall not include revenues from acquisitions after the date of this Agreement except to the extent that such revenues are derived from the use of Firestone assets) exceeding the Revenue Target set forth below for such year, Parent shall issue to the holders of Company Common Stock immediately prior to the Effective Time (‘‘Effective Time Holders’’), in the aggregate, the number of warrants to purchase shares of Parent Common Stock set forth below with respect to such year:


Year	Revenue Target			Warrants
2007		$	20,000,000		500,000
2008		$	30,000,000		500,000

(ii) For each of the years 2007 and 2008 with respect to which the average number of cable television and satellite television subscribers to the Surviving Corporation’s Sorpresa! Channel (determined as of the last day of each such year), as reported pursuant to Affiliation Agreements (as defined in Section 2.19(a)(iv)) with cable television and satellite television system operators, exceeds the Subscriber Target set forth below for such year, Parent shall issue to the Effective Time Holders, in the aggregate, the number of warrants to purchase shares of Parent Common Stock set forth below with respect to such year:


Year	Subscriber Target		Warrants
2007		3,500,000		500,000
2008		4,500,000		500,000

(iii) If, in 2007, the Surviving Corporation exceeds either the Revenue Target for that year or the Subscriber Target for that year (each, a ‘‘Target’’), but not both, the warrants that would have been issued to such holders had the Target that had not been exceeded been exceeded shall be added to the number of warrants issuable in 2008 upon the applicable Target for such following year being exceeded and shall be issued to the Effective Time Holders if both Targets are exceeded in 2008. For purposes hereof, if a Target is not exceeded in 2007 but is exceeded in 2008, the Effective Time Holders shall be entitled to receive all of the warrants issuable with respect to such Target for both 2007 and 2008 if the other Target is exceeded in both years. To the extent any warrants are not so earned by the conclusion of 2008, they will no longer be issuable to the Effective Time Holders.

(iv) The Contingent Warrants shall have an exercise price of $5.00 per share. One-half of the Contingent Warrants issued to each Effective Time Holder shall be in the form of Parent’s Class W warrants and one-half shall be in the form of Parent’s Class Z warrants and all Contingent Warrants shall be deemed to be Merger Warrants for all other purposes of this Agreement.

(v) Contingent Warrants issuable pursuant to this Section 1.5(c) shall be issued to the Effective Time Holders within 30 days after the filing of Parent’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year with respect to which they are issued.

(e) Capital Stock of Merger Sub. Each share of Common Stock, par value $0.0001, of Merger Sub (the ‘‘Merger Sub Common Stock’’) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the

Effective Time shall be converted into one validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock, par value $0.001, of the Surviving Corporation. Each certificate evidencing ownership of shares of Merger Sub Common Stock shall evidence ownership of such shares of common stock of the Surviving Corporation.

(f) Adjustments to Exchange Ratios. The numbers of shares of Parent Common Stock and Merger Warrants that the holders of the Company Common Stock are entitled to receive as a result of the Merger shall be equitably adjusted to reflect appropriately the effect of any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend (including any dividend or distribution of securities convertible into Parent Common Stock), reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, combination, exchange of shares or other like change with respect to Parent Common Stock occurring on or after the date hereof and prior to the Effective Time.

(g) Fractional Shares and Warrants. No fraction of a share of Parent Common Stock or Merger Warrant will be issued by virtue of the Merger, and each holder of shares of Company Common Stock who would otherwise be entitled to a fraction of a share of Parent Common Stock or Merger Warrant (after aggregating all fractional shares of Parent Common Stock and Merger Warrants that otherwise would be received by such holder) shall, upon compliance with Section 1.6, receive from Parent, in lieu of such fractional share, one (1) share of Parent Common Stock or one (1) Merger Warrant, as the case may be.

1.6 Surrender of Certificates; Uncertificated Shares.

(a) Exchange Agent. Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (‘‘Continental’’) shall be designated by the parties hereto to act as the exchange agent (the ‘‘Exchange Agent’’) in the Merger.

(b) Parent to Provide Common Stock and Merger Warrants. Promptly after the Effective Time, and in no event more than three (3) business days thereafter, Parent shall make available to the Exchange Agent, for exchange in accordance with this Article I, the shares of Parent Common Stock and Merger Warrants issuable pursuant to Section 1.5 in exchange for outstanding shares of Company Common Stock and any dividends or distributions to which holders of shares of Company Common Stock may be entitled pursuant to Section 1.6(e).

(c) Exchange Procedures. The certificates representing the shares of Parent Common Stock and Merger Warrants issuable with respect to certificates for shares of Company Common Stock (‘‘Company Certificates’’) shall be issued to the holders of Company Certificates upon surrender of the Company Certificates in the manner provided in this Section 1.6 (or in the case of a lost, stolen or destroyed certificate, upon delivery of an affidavit (and indemnity, if required) in the manner provided in Section 1.8). Each holder shall be issued separate certificates for such holder’s Escrow Shares (as defined in Section 1.11) and for the remaining number of shares of Parent Common Stock to which such holder is entitled. Promptly after the Effective Time, and in no event more than three (3) business days thereafter, Parent shall cause the Exchange Agent to mail to each holder of record (as of the Effective Time) of Company Certificates, which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented outstanding shares of Company Common Stock that were converted into the right to receive shares of Parent Common Stock and Merger Warrants pursuant to Section 1.5: (i) a letter of transmittal in customary form (which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Company Certificates shall pass, only upon delivery of the Company Certificates to the Exchange Agent and shall contain such other customary provisions as Parent may reasonably specify), and (ii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Company Certificates in exchange for the certificates representing shares of Parent Common Stock and Merger Warrants to which the holder of such Company Certificates is entitled as a result of the Merger and any dividends or other distributions pursuant to Section 1.6(e). Upon surrender of Company Certificates for cancellation to the Exchange Agent or to such other agent or agents as may be appointed by Parent, together with such letter of transmittal, duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, the holders of such Company Certificates shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor such amounts of certificates representing the number of shares of Parent Common Stock and Merger

Warrants into which their shares of Company Common Stock were converted at the Effective Time, less the Escrow Shares, and any dividends or distributions payable pursuant to Section 1.6(e), and the Company Certificates so surrendered shall forthwith be canceled. Until so surrendered, outstanding Company Certificates will be deemed, from and after the Effective Time, to evidence only the right to receive the applicable number of shares of Parent Common Stock and Merger Warrants issuable pursuant to Sections 1.5(a) and 1.5(b).

(d) Uncertificated Shares. Not later than one (1) business day after the Effective Time, the Company shall provide to Parent, with a copy to the Exchange Agent, a list, certified as being true and complete by the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, of all holders of Company Common Stock whose shares thereof are not represented by certificates who are entitled to receive Parent Common Stock and Merger Warrants in exchange therefor as a result of the Merger, which list shall state the name, address and tax identification number of each such holder, the number of shares of Company Common Stock held by such holder that are uncertificated and the number of shares of Parent Common Stock and Merger Warrants such holder is entitled to receive with respect to such uncertificated shares. Parent shall thereupon issue to the Exchange Agent, in its capacity as stock transfer agent of the Company, an authorization to issue and deliver to the holders of such uncertificated shares of Company Common Stock the numbers of shares of Parent Common Stock and Merger Warrants that they are entitled to receive in exchange therefor as a result of the Merger and the Exchange Agent shall so issue and deliver such certificates representing such shares of Parent Common Stock and Merger Warrants to such holders as if such holders had delivered Certificates representing such shares of Company Common Stock to the Exchange Agent pursuant to Section 1.6(c).

(e) Distributions With Respect to Unexchanged Shares. No dividends or other distributions declared or made after the date of this Agreement with respect to Parent Common Stock with a record date after the Effective Time will be paid to the holders of any unsurrendered Company Certificates with respect to the shares of Parent Common Stock to be issued upon surrender thereof until the holders of record of such Company Certificates shall surrender such Company Certificates. Subject to applicable law, following surrender of any such Company Certificates with a properly completed letter of transmittal, the Exchange Agent shall promptly deliver to the record holders thereof, without interest, the certificates representing shares of Parent Common Stock and Merger Warrants issued in exchange therefor and the amount of any such dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time theretofore paid with respect to such shares of Parent Common Stock.

(f) Transfers of Ownership. If certificates representing shares of Parent Common Stock and Merger Warrants are to be issued in a name other than that in which the Company Certificates surrendered in exchange therefor are registered, it will be a condition of the issuance thereof that the Company Certificates so surrendered will be properly endorsed and otherwise in proper form for transfer and that the persons requesting such exchange will have paid to Parent or any agent designated by it any transfer or other taxes required by reason of the issuance of certificates representing shares of Parent Common Stock in any name other than that of the registered holder of the Company Certificates surrendered, or established to the satisfaction of Parent or any agent designated by it that such tax has been paid or is not payable.

(g) Required Withholding. Each of the Exchange Agent, Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any consideration payable or otherwise deliverable pursuant to this Agreement to any holder or former holder of Company Common Stock such amounts as are required to be deducted or withheld therefrom under the Code or under any provision of state, local or foreign tax law or under any other applicable legal requirement. To the extent such amounts are so deducted or withheld, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes under this Agreement as having been paid to the person to whom such amounts would otherwise have been paid.

(h) Termination of Exchange Agent Obligations. Parent Common Stock held by the Exchange Agent and Merger Warrants that have not been delivered to holders of Company

Certificates within six months after the Effective Time shall promptly be paid or delivered, as appropriate, to Parent, and thereafter holders of Company Certificates who have not theretofore complied with the exchange procedures outlined in and contemplated by this Section 1.6 shall thereafter look only to Parent (subject to abandoned property, escheat and similar laws) for their claim for shares of Parent Common Stock and Merger Warrants and any dividends or distributions pursuant to Section 1.6(e) with respect to Parent Common Stock to which they are entitled.

(i) No Liability. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 1.6, neither the Exchange Agent, Parent, the Surviving Corporation, the Company nor any party hereto shall be liable to a holder of shares of Parent Common Stock or Company Common Stock for any amount properly paid to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar law.

1.7 No Further Ownership Rights in Company Stock. All shares of Parent Common Stock and Merger Warrants issued in accordance with the terms hereof shall be deemed to have been issued in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such shares of Company Common Stock and there shall be no further registration of transfers on the records of the Surviving Corporation of shares of Company Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, Company Certificates are presented to the Surviving Corporation for any reason, they shall be canceled and exchanged as provided in this Article I.

1.8 Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Certificates. In the event that any Company Certificates shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, the Exchange Agent shall issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Company Certificates, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the holder thereof, the certificates representing the shares of Parent Common Stock and Merger Warrants that the shares of Company Common Stock formerly represented by such Company Certificates were converted into and any dividends or distributions payable pursuant to Section 1.6(e); provided, however, that, as a condition precedent to the issuance of such certificates representing shares of Parent Common Stock and Merger Warrants and other distributions, the owner of such lost, stolen or destroyed Company Certificates shall indemnify Parent against any claim that may be made against Parent, the Surviving Corporation or the Exchange Agent with respect to the Company Certificates alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed.

1.9 Tax Consequences. It is intended by the parties hereto that the Merger shall constitute a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368 of the Code. The parties hereto adopt this Agreement as a ‘‘plan of reorganization’’ within the meaning of Sections 1.368-2(g) and 1.368-3(a) of the United States Income Tax Regulations.

1.10 Taking of Necessary Action; Further Action. If, at any time after the Effective Time, any further action is necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement and to vest the Surviving Corporation with full right, title and possession to all assets, property, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of the Company and Merger Sub, the officers and directors of the Company and Merger Sub will take all such lawful and necessary action.

1.11 Escrow. As the sole remedy for the indemnity obligations set forth in Article VII, at the Closing, the Persons receiving shares of Parent Common Stock to be issued as a result of the Merger shall deposit in escrow, to be held for the period ending on the thirtieth day after the date that Parent files its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007 (the ‘‘Escrow Period’’) and for such further period as may be required pursuant to the Escrow Agreement referred to below, ten percent (10%) of the shares of Parent Common Stock received by such Persons as a result of the Merger (the ‘‘Escrow Shares’’), which shares shall be allocated among the Persons entitled to receive them in the same proportions as the shares of Parent Common Stock are allocated among them, all in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Escrow Agreement to be entered into at the Closing between Parent, the Representative referred to in Section 1.14(b) and Continental, as Escrow Agent, in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit C (the ‘‘Escrow Agreement’’).

1.12 Rule 145. All shares of Parent Common Stock issued pursuant to this Agreement to ‘‘affiliates’’ of the Company listed in Schedule 1.12 will be subject to certain resale restrictions under Rule 145 promulgated under the Securities Act and all certificates representing such shares shall bear an appropriate restrictive legend.

1.13 Signing Stockholder Matters.

(a) By his, her or its execution of this Agreement, each Signing Stockholder, in his, her or its capacity as a stockholder of the Company, hereby approves and adopts this Agreement and authorizes the Company, its directors and officers to take all actions necessary for the consummation of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated hereby pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and its exhibits. Such execution shall be deemed to be action taken by the irrevocable written consent of each Signing Stockholder for purposes of Section 228 of the DGCL.

(b) Each Signing Stockholder, for himself, herself or itself only, represents and warrants as follows: (i) all Parent Common Stock to be acquired by such Signing Stockholder pursuant to this Agreement will be acquired for his, her or its account and not with a view towards distribution thereof other than, with respect to Signing Stockholders that are entities, transfers to its stockholders, partners or members; (ii) it understands that he, she or it must bear the economic risk of the investment in the Parent Common Stock, which cannot be sold by he, she or it unless it is registered under the Securities Act, or an exemption therefrom is available thereunder; (iii) he, she or it has had both the opportunity to ask questions and receive answers from the officers and directors of Parent and all persons acting on Parent’s behalf concerning the business and operations of Parent and to obtain any additional information to the extent Parent possesses or may possess such information or can acquire it without unreasonable effort or expense necessary to verify the accuracy of such information; and (iv) he, she or it has had access to the Parent SEC Reports filed prior to the date of this Agreement. Each Signing Stockholder acknowledges, as to himself, herself or itself only, that (v) he, she or it is either (A) an ‘‘accredited investor’’ as such term is defined in Rule 501(a) promulgated under the Securities Act or (B) a person possessing sufficient knowledge and experience in financial and business matters to enable it to evaluate the merits and risks of an investment in Parent; and (vi) he, she or it understands that the certificates representing the Parent Common Stock to be received by he, she or it may bear legends to the effect that the Parent Common Stock may not be transferred except upon compliance with (C) the registration requirements of the Securities Act (or an exemption therefrom) and (D) the provisions of this Agreement.

(c) Each Signing Stockholder, for himself, herself or itself only, represents and warrants that the execution and delivery of this Agreement by such Signing Stockholder does not, and the performance of his, her or its obligations hereunder will not, require any consent, approval, authorization or permit of, or filing with or notification to, any court, administrative agency, commission, governmental or regulatory authority, domestic or foreign (a ‘‘Governmental Entity’’), except (i) for applicable requirements, if any, of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (‘‘Securities Act’’), the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (‘‘Exchange Act’’), state securities laws (‘‘Blue Sky Laws’’), and the rules and regulations thereunder, and (ii) where the failure to obtain such consents, approvals, authorizations or permits, or to make such filings or notifications, would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect (as defined in Section 10.2(a)) on such Signing Stockholder or the Company or, after the Closing, the Parent, or prevent consummation of the Merger or otherwise prevent the parties hereto from performing their obligations under this Agreement.

1.14 Committee and Representative for Purposes of Escrow Agreement.

(a) Parent Committee. Prior to the Closing, the Board of Directors of Parent shall appoint a committee consisting of one or more of its then members to act on behalf of Parent to take all necessary actions and make all decisions pursuant to the Escrow Agreement regarding Parent’s right to indemnification pursuant to Article VII hereof. In the event of a vacancy in such committee, the Board of Directors of Parent shall appoint as a successor a Person who was a

director of Parent prior to the Closing Date or some other Person who would qualify as an ‘‘independent’’ director of Parent and who has not had any relationship with the Company prior to the Closing. Such committee is intended to be the ‘‘Committee’’ referred to in Article VII hereof and the Escrow Agreement.

(b) Representative. The Signing Stockholders hereby designate Xxxxxxx X. Xxxxx to represent the interests of the Persons entitled to receive Parent Common Stock as a result of the Merger for purposes of the Escrow Agreement. If such Person ceases to serve in such capacity, for any reason, such Person shall designate his or her successor. Failing such designation within 10 business days after the Representative has ceased to serve, those members of the Board of Directors of Parent who were directors of the Company prior to the Closing shall appoint as successor a Person who was a former stockholder of the Company or such other Person as such members shall designate. Such Person or successor is intended to be the ‘‘Representative’’ referred to in Section 1.11 and Article VII hereof and the Escrow Agreement.

1.15 Derivative Securities; Company Preferred Stock. The Company shall arrange that the holders of all of its outstanding shares of Company Preferred Stock and outstanding options, warrants, convertible debt and other derivative securities exchange such securities for, or convert or exercise all such securities into, shares of Company Common Stock prior to the Effective Time without the payment of any consideration by the Company other than the issuance of Company Common Stock (collectively, the ‘‘Conversions’’). The Conversions may be made contingent upon the occurrence of the Closing. Other than in connection with (i) the Conversions, (ii) the issuance of Company securities as dividends or interest as to Company Preferred Stock and indebtedness that is outstanding as of the date of this Agreement, and (iii) the issuance of Company Common Stock or Series B Preferred Stock of the Company in lieu of rent under the Facilities Lease described in Section 2.14(c) hereof, without the consent of Parent, which consent may be withheld in Parent’s absolute discretion, the Company will not issue any of its securities after the date hereof and prior to the earlier of the date this Agreement is terminated and the Effective Time.

1.16 Notice to Other Stockholders of Company. As promptly as practicable after the execution of this Agreement, the Company, after consultation with Parent, shall give the stockholders of the Company, other than the Signing Stockholders, notice of the written consent of the Signing Stockholders pursuant to Section 1.13(a), in accordance with the provisions of Section 228 of the DGCL.

1.17 Shares Subject to Appraisal Rights.

(a) Notwithstanding Section 1.5 hereof, Dissenting Shares (as hereinafter defined) shall not be converted into a right to receive Parent Common Stock and Merger Warrants. The holders thereof shall be entitled only to such rights as are granted by the DGCL. Each holder of Dissenting Shares who becomes entitled to payment for such shares pursuant to the DGCL shall receive payment therefor from the Surviving Corporation in accordance with the DGCL, provided, however, that (i) if any stockholder of the Company who asserts appraisal rights in connection with the Merger (a ‘‘Dissenter’’) shall have failed to establish his entitlement to such rights as provided in the DGCL, or (ii) if any such Dissenter shall have effectively withdrawn his demand for payment for such shares or waived or lost his right to payment for his shares under the appraisal rights process under the DGCL, the shares of Company Common Stock held by such Dissenter shall be treated as if they had been converted, as of the Effective Time, into a right to receive Parent Common Stock and Merger Warrants as provided in Section 1.5. The Company shall give Parent prompt notice of any demands for payment received by the Company from a person asserting appraisal rights, and Parent shall have the right to participate in all negotiations and proceedings with respect to such demands. The Company shall not, except with the prior written consent of Parent, make any payment with respect to, or settle or offer to settle, any such demands.

(b) As used herein, ‘‘Dissenting Shares’’ means any shares of Company Common Stock held by stockholders of the Company who are entitled to appraisal rights under the DGCL, and

who have properly exercised, perfected and not subsequently withdrawn or lost or waived their rights to demand payment with respect to their shares in accordance with the DGCL.

1.18 Sale Restriction. No public market sales of shares of Parent Common Stock issued as a result of the Merger shall be made for a period of six months following the Closing Date or such longer periods as may be applicable to Persons party to the Lock-Up Agreements referred to in Section 5.10 (‘‘Restricted Shares’’). No private sales of shares of Parent Common Stock issued as a result of the Merger shall be made unless the purchaser acknowledges and agrees to the restriction stated in the preceding sentence by delivery to Parent of a written document to such effect. Certificates representing shares of Parent Common Stock issued as a result of the Merger shall bear a prominent legend to such effect. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this restriction does not apply to the Merger Warrants or shares of Parent Common Stock issued upon exercise of the Merger Warrants. The sale restrictions as to Restricted Shares shall lapse and the Restricted Shares shall be available for public sale upon termination of the Lock-Up Agreements, at which time new share certificates shall be issued to holders of Restricted Shares to delete any sale restriction legend.

1.19 Reduction Amount Procedures.

(a) The provisions of this Section 1.19 shall apply, notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement to the contrary, if, at the Closing, the parties have not reached agreement as to the proper value of the Stock Reduction Number.

(b) In the event of a dispute among the parties as to the Stock Reduction Number (a ‘‘Stock Reduction Number Dispute’’), 300,000 of the shares of Parent Common Stock that would otherwise be issued to the Effective Time Holders pursuant to Section 1.5(a) following the Closing in accordance with Section 1.6 shall not be issued. Upon resolution of the Stock Reduction Number Dispute in accordance with this Section 1.19, there shall be issued to each Effective Time Holder his, her or its Allocation Percentage of that number of shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the difference between 300,000 shares and the sum of the Stock Reduction Number (as finally determined pursuant to this Section 1.19) and the Resolution Number.

(d) Operation of the Earth Station complies with the technical and environmental regulations of the FCC, including, but not limited to, (a) compatibility with two-degree satellite orbital spacing and (b) limitations on exposure of humans to harmful levels of radiofrequency radiation such that a grant of a renewal of the License would not constitute a ‘‘major’’ environmental action under 47 CFR Sec. 1.1307.

(e) The Company shares the use of the Earth Station and satellite transponder facilities with fewer than five unrelated entities (‘‘Sharers’’) and does so under individually-negotiated terms and conditions.

The Company does not hold itself out to the general public as a common carrier or other provider of telecommunications services.

(f) The License is unimpaired by any acts or omissions of the Company or any affiliate, employee, agent, officer, or director; is free and clear of any restrictions that might limit the full operation of the Earth Station in the manner it is now being operated; and is not subject to any restrictions or conditions except to the extent that such terms and conditions appear on the face of License or in generally applicable under the rules and regulations of the FCC.

(i) The satellite transponder lease between the Company and Intelsat USA Sales Corp. is in full force and effect, expires no earlier than the ‘‘end of life’’ of satellite IA-13 and provides unlimited access to four 9-Megahertz of frequency bandwidth on a satellite whose signal illuminates all 48 states with a signal receivable on an earth station of not more than three meters in diameter.

The board of directors of the Company (including any required committee or subgroup thereof) has, as of the date of this Agreement, duly approved this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, subject to the giving of the notice provided for in Section 1.16, and has resolved to cause such notice to be given.

2.25 Signing Stockholder Approval.

ARTICLE VII

INDEMNIFICATION

7.1 Indemnification of Parent.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Article VII (including without limitation the limitations set forth in Section 7.4), Parent, the Company and their respective representatives, successors and permitted assigns (the ‘‘Parent Indemnitees’’) shall be indemnified, defended and held harmless from and against all Losses asserted against, resulting to, imposed upon, or incurred by any Parent Indemnitee by reason of, arising out of or resulting from:

(i) the inaccuracy or breach of any representation or warranty of Company contained in or made pursuant to this Agreement, any Schedule or any certificate delivered by the Company to Parent pursuant to this Agreement with respect hereto or thereto in connection with the Closing;

(ii) the non-fulfillment or breach of any covenant or agreement of the Company contained in this Agreement; or

(iii) FCC universal service fund contributions assessed against the Company with respect to any period prior to the Closing Date to the extent not paid prior to the date hereof or reserved against in the interim balance sheet included in the Unaudited Financial Statements.

(b) As used in this Article VII, the term ‘‘Losses’’ shall include all losses, liabilities, damages, judgments, awards, orders, penalties, settlements, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, interest, penalties, court costs and reasonable legal fees and expenses) including those arising from any demands, claims, suits, actions, costs of investigation, notices of violation or noncompliance, causes of action, proceedings and assessments whether or not made by third parties or whether or not ultimately determined to be valid. Solely for the purpose of determining the amount of any Losses (and not for determining any breach) for which Parent Indemnitee may be entitled to indemnification pursuant to Article VII, any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement that is qualified by a term or terms such as ‘‘material,’’ ‘‘materially,’’ or ‘‘Material Adverse Effect’’ shall be deemed made or given without such qualification and without giving effect to such words.

7.2 Indemnification of Third Party Claims. The indemnification obligations and liabilities under this Article VII with respect to actions, proceedings, lawsuits, investigations, demands or other claims

brought against Parent by a Person other than the Company (a ‘‘Third Party Claim’’) shall be subject to the following terms and conditions:

(a) Notice of Claim. Parent, acting through the Committee, will give the Representative prompt written notice after receiving written notice of any Third Party Claim or discovering the liability, obligation or facts giving rise to such Third Party Claim (a ‘‘Notice of Claim’’) which Notice of Third Party Claim shall set forth (i) a brief description of the nature of the Third Party Claim, (ii) the total amount of the actual out-of-pocket Loss or the anticipated potential Loss (including any costs or expenses which have been or may be reasonably incurred in connection therewith), and (iii) whether such Loss may be covered (in whole or in part) under any insurance and the estimated amount of such Loss which may be covered under such insurance, and the Representative shall be entitled to participate in the defense of Third Party Claim at its expense.

(b) Defense. The Representative shall have the right, at its option (subject to the limitations set forth in subsection 7.2(c) below), by written notice to Parent, to assume the entire control of, subject to the right of Parent to participate (at its expense and with counsel of its choice) in, the defense, compromise or settlement of the Third Party Claim as to which such Notice of Claim has been given, and shall be entitled to appoint a recognized and reputable counsel reasonably acceptable to Parent to be the lead counsel in connection with such defense. If the Representative is permitted and elects to assume the defense of a Third Party Claim:

(i) the Representative shall diligently and in good faith defend such Third Party Claim and shall keep Parent reasonably informed of the status of such defense; provided, however, that in the case of any settlement providing for remedies other than monetary damages for which indemnification is provided, Parent shall have the right to approve the settlement; and

(ii) Parent shall cooperate fully in all respects with the Representative in any such defense, compromise or settlement thereof, including, without limitation, the selection of counsel, and Parent shall make available to the Representative all pertinent information and documents under its control.

(c) Limitations of Right to Assume Defense. The Representative shall not be entitled to assume control of such defense if (i) the Third Party Claim relates to or arises in connection with any criminal proceeding, action, indictment, allegation or investigation; (ii) the Third Party Claim seeks an injunction or equitable relief against Parent; or (iii) there is a reasonable probability that a Third Party Claim may materially and adversely affect Parent other than as a result of money damages or other money payments.

(d) Other Limitations. Failure to give prompt Notice of Claim or to provide copies of relevant available documents or to furnish relevant available data shall not constitute a defense (in whole or in part) to any Third Party Claim by Parent against the Representative and shall not affect the Representative’s duty or obligations under this Article VII, except to the extent (and only to the extent that) such failure shall have adversely affected the ability of the Representative to defend against or reduce its liability or caused or increased such liability or otherwise caused the damages for which the Representative is obligated to be greater than such damages would have been had Parent given the Representative prompt notice hereunder. So long as the Representative is defending any such action actively and in good faith, Parent shall not settle such action. Parent shall make available to the Representative all relevant records and other relevant materials required by them and in the possession or under the control of Parent, for the use of the Representative and its representatives in defending any such action, and shall in other respects give reasonable cooperation in such defense.

(e) Failure to Defend. If the Representative, promptly after receiving a Notice of Claim, fails to defend such Third Party Claim actively and in good faith, Parent will (upon further written notice) have the right to undertake the defense, compromise or settlement of such Third Party Claim as it may determine in its reasonable discretion, provided that the Representative shall have the right to approve any settlement, which approval will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

(f) Parent’s Rights. Anything in this Section 7.3 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Representative shall not, without the written consent of Parent, settle or compromise any action or consent to the entry of any judgment which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or the plaintiff to Parent of a full and unconditional release from all liability and obligation in respect of such action without any payment by Parent.

(g) Representative Consent. Unless the Representative has consented to a settlement of a Third Party Claim, the amount of the settlement shall not be a binding determination of the amount of the Loss and such amount shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of the Escrow Agreement

7.3 Insurance Effect. To the extent that any Losses that are subject to indemnification pursuant to this Article VII are covered by insurance, Parent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the maximum recovery under such insurance; provided that Parent shall nevertheless be entitled to bring a claim for indemnification under this Article VII in respect of such Losses and the time limitations set forth in Section 7.4 hereof for bringing a claim of indemnification under this Agreement shall be tolled during the pendency of such insurance claim. The existence of a claim by Parent for monies from an insurer or against a third party in respect of any Loss shall not, however, delay any payment pursuant to the indemnification provisions contained herein and otherwise determined to be due and owing by the Representative. If Parent has received the payment required by this Agreement from the Representative in respect of any Loss and later receives proceeds from insurance or other amounts in respect of such Loss, then it shall hold such proceeds or other amounts in trust for the benefit of the Representative and shall pay to the Representative, as promptly as practicable after receipt, a sum equal to the amount of such proceeds or other amount received, up to the aggregate amount of any payments received from the Representative pursuant to this Agreement in respect of such Loss. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, it is the intention of the parties that no insurer or any other third party shall be (i) entitled to a benefit it would not be entitled to receive in the absence of the foregoing indemnification provisions, or (ii) relieved of the responsibility to pay any claims for which it is obligated.

7.4 Limitations on Indemnification.

(a) Survival: Time Limitation. The representations, warranties, covenants and agreements in this Agreement or in any writing delivered by the Company to Parent in connection with this Agreement (including the certificate required to be delivered by the Company pursuant to Section 6.3(a)) shall survive the Closing until the expiration of the Escrow Period.

(b) Any claim made by a party hereunder shall be preserved despite the subsequent expiration of the Escrow Period and any claim set forth in a Notice of Claim sent prior to the expiration of the Escrow Period shall survive until final resolution thereof. Except as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, no claim for indemnification under this Article VII shall be brought after the end of the Escrow Period.

(c) Deductible. No amount shall be payable under Article VII unless and until the aggregate amount of all indemnifiable Losses otherwise payable exceeds $500,000 (the ‘‘Deductible’’), in which event the amount payable shall include all amounts included in the Deductible and all future amounts that become payable under Section 7.1 from time to time thereafter.

(d) Aggregate Amount Limitation. The aggregate liability for Losses pursuant to Section 7.1 shall not in any event exceed the Escrow Shares and Parent shall have no claim against the Company’s stockholders other than for the Escrow Shares (and any proceeds of the shares or distributions with respect to the Escrow Shares).

7.5 Exclusive Remedy. Parent hereby acknowledges and agrees that, from and after the Closing, its sole remedy with respect to any and all claims for money damages arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be pursuant and subject to the requirements of the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article VII. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, nothing contained in this Article VII shall in any way impair, modify or otherwise limit Parent’s or Company’s right to bring any

claim, demand or suit against the other party based upon such other party’s actual fraud or intentional or willful misrepresentation or omission, it being understood that a mere breach of a representation and warranty, without intentional or willful misrepresentation or omission, does not constitute fraud.

7.6 Adjustment to Merger Consideration. Amounts paid for indemnification under Article VII shall be deemed to be an adjustment to the value of the shares of Parent Common Stock issued by Parent as a result of the Merger, except as otherwise required by Law.

7.7 Representative Capacities; Application of Escrow Shares. The parties acknowledge that the Representative’s obligations under this Article VII are solely as a representative of the Company’s stockholders in the manner set forth in the Escrow Agreement with respect to the obligations to indemnify Parent under this Article VII and that the Representative shall have no personal responsibility for any expenses incurred by him in such capacity and that all payments to Parent as a result of such indemnification obligations shall be made solely from, and to the extent of, the Escrow Shares. Out-of-pocket expenses of the Representative for attorneys’ fees and other costs shall be borne in the first instance by Parent, which may make a claim for reimbursement thereof against the Escrow Shares upon the claim with respect to which such expenses are incurred becoming an Established Claim (as defined in the Escrow Agreement). The parties further acknowledge that all actions to be taken by Parent pursuant to this Article VII shall be taken on its behalf by the Committee in accordance with the provisions of the Escrow Agreement. The Escrow Agent, pursuant to the Escrow Agreement after the Closing, may apply all or a portion of the Escrow Shares to satisfy any claim for indemnification pursuant to this Article VII. The Escrow Agent will hold the remaining portion of the Escrow Shares until final resolution of all claims for indemnification or disputes relating thereto.

ARTICLE VIII

(e) by Parent, upon a material breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement on the part of the Company set forth in this Agreement, or if any representation or

warranty of the Company shall have become untrue, in either case such that the conditions set forth in Article VI would not be satisfied as of the time of such breach or as of the time such representation or warranty shall have become untrue, provided, that if such breach is curable by the Company prior to the Closing Date, then Parent may not terminate this Agreement under this Section 8.1(e) for thirty (30) days after delivery of written notice from Parent to the Company of such breach, provided the Company continues to exercise commercially reasonable efforts to cure such breach (it being understood that Parent may not terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.1(e) if it shall have materially breached this Agreement or if such breach by the Company is cured during such thirty (30)-day period); or

8.2 Notice of Termination; Effect of Termination. Any termination of this Agreement under Section 8.1 above will be effective immediately upon (or, if the termination is pursuant to Section 8.1(d) or Section 8.1(e) and the proviso therein is applicable, thirty (30) days after) the delivery of written notice of the terminating party to the other parties hereto. In the event of the termination of this Agreement as provided in Section 8.1, this Agreement shall be of no further force or effect and the Merger shall be abandoned, except for and subject to the following: (i) Sections 5.6, 5.13, 8.2 and 8.3 and Article X (General Provisions) shall survive the termination of this Agreement, and (ii) nothing herein shall relieve any party from liability for any breach of this Agreement, including a breach by a party electing to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(b) caused by the action or failure to act of such party constituting a principal cause of or resulting in the failure of the Merger to occur on or before the date stated therein.

8.3 Fees and Expenses. All fees and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be paid by the party incurring such expenses whether or not the Merger is consummated.

For purposes of this definition, ‘‘control’’ (including with correlative meanings, the terms ‘‘controlling,’’ ‘‘controlled by’’ and ‘‘under common control with’’), as applied to any Person, means the possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of such Person, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by contract or otherwise; and

(g) all monetary amounts set forth herein are referenced in United States dollars, unless otherwise noted.

10.3 Counterparts; Facsimile Signatures. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the parties and delivered to the other party, it being understood that all parties need not sign the same counterpart. Delivery by facsimile to counsel for the other party of a counterpart executed by a party shall be deemed to meet the requirements of the previous sentence.

10.4 Entire Agreement; Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement and the documents and instruments and other agreements among the parties hereto as contemplated by or referred to herein, including the Schedules hereto (a) constitute the entire agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, it being understood that the Amended and Restated Term Sheet between Parent and the Company dated May 16, 2006 is hereby terminated in its entirety and shall be of no further force and effect; and (b) are not intended to confer upon any other person any rights or remedies hereunder (except as specifically provided in this Agreement).

10.5 Severability. In the event that any provision of this Agreement, or the application thereof, becomes or is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, void or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement will continue in full force and effect and the application of such provision to other persons or circumstances will be interpreted so as reasonably to effect the intent of the parties hereto. The parties further agree to replace such void or unenforceable provision of this

Agreement with a valid and enforceable provision that will achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such void or unenforceable provision.

10.6 Other Remedies; Specific Performance. Except as otherwise provided herein, any and all remedies herein expressly conferred upon a party will be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby, or by law or equity upon such party, and the exercise by a party of any one remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other remedy. The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to seek an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof in any court of the United States or any state having jurisdiction, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity.

10.7 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the law of the State of New York regardless of the law that might otherwise govern under applicable principles of conflicts of law thereof. Subject to the provisions of Section 10.12, each party hereby consents to the exclusive jurisdiction of the federal and state courts located in the State of New York, New York County, with respect to the resolution of any disputes arising under this Agreement and the enforcement of the provisions hereof.

10.8 Rules of Construction. The parties hereto agree that they have been represented by counsel during the negotiation and execution of this Agreement and, therefore, waive the application of any law, regulation, holding or rule of construction providing that ambiguities in an agreement or other document will be construed against the party drafting such agreement or document.

10.9 Assignment. No party may assign either this Agreement or any of its rights, interests, or obligations hereunder without the prior written approval of the other parties. Subject to the first sentence of this Section 10.9, this Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

10.10 Amendment. This Agreement may be amended by the parties hereto at any time by execution of an instrument in writing signed on behalf of each of the parties.

10.11 Extension; Waiver. At any time prior to the Closing, any party hereto may, to the extent legally allowed, (i) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the other parties hereto, (ii) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties made to such party contained herein or in any document delivered pursuant hereto and (iii) waive compliance with any of the agreements or conditions for the benefit of such party contained herein. Any agreement on the part of a party hereto to any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed on behalf of such party. Delay in exercising any right under this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of such right.

10.12 Arbitration. Any disputes or claims arising under or in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereunder shall be resolved by binding arbitration. Notice of a demand to arbitrate a dispute by either party shall be given in writing to the other at their last known address. Arbitration shall be commenced by the filing by a party of an arbitration demand with the American Arbitration Association (‘‘AAA’’) in its office in New York City. The arbitration and resolution of the dispute shall be resolved by a single arbitrator appointed by the AAA pursuant to AAA rules. The arbitration shall in all respects be governed and conducted by applicable AAA rules, and any award and/or decision shall be conclusive and binding on the parties. The arbitration shall be conducted in New York City. The arbitrator shall supply a written opinion supporting any award, and judgment may be entered on the award in any court of competent jurisdiction. Each party shall pay its own fees and expenses for the arbitration, except that any costs and charges imposed by the AAA and any fees of the arbitrator for his services shall be assessed against the losing party by the arbitrator. In the event that preliminary or permanent injunctive relief is necessary or desirable in order to prevent a party from acting contrary to this Agreement or to prevent irreparable harm prior to a confirmation of an arbitration award, then either party is authorized and entitled to commence a

lawsuit solely to obtain equitable relief against the other pending the completion of the arbitration in a court having jurisdiction over the parties. Each party hereby consents to the exclusive jurisdiction of the federal and state courts located in the State of New York, New York County, for such purpose. All rights and remedies of the parties shall be cumulative and in addition to any other rights and remedies obtainable from arbitration.
