PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT

This PURCHASE AND SALE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is dated January 14, 2008, and made by and among Consolidated Theatres, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Parent”), the corporations (other than Purchaser) identified on the signature pages hereto (collectively, the “Corporations”, and together with Parent, each a “Seller” and, together, the “Sellers”), Consolidated Theatres Holdings, GP, a North Carolina partnership (the “Partnership”), and Regal Cinemas, Inc., a Tennessee corporation (“Purchaser”). Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in Section 10.2.

WHEREAS, the Partnership, and its Subsidiaries identified on Exhibit A hereto (collectively, with the Partnership, the “Companies”) operate a chain of cinemas located in the Southeastern United States;

WHEREAS, the Corporations own 100% of the outstanding Equity Securities (excluding the Options (as defined below)) of the Partnership (collectively, the “Partnership Interests”), and Parent owns 100% of the outstanding capital stock of each of the Corporations;

WHEREAS, Parent owns 100% of the outstanding options to purchase all of the Partnership Interests (collectively, the “Options”) from the Corporations for an aggregate exercise price (the “Option Exercise Price”) of $41,910,614.83; and

WHEREAS, Purchaser desires to purchase from Sellers, and Sellers desire to sell to Purchaser, all the assets of the Companies through the purchase (1) from Parent of the Options, and (2) from the Corporations of the Partnership Interests upon the exercise of the Options, in each case subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the respective representations, warranties, covenants and agreements set forth in this Agreement and for other consideration the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

PURCHASE AND SALE; CLOSING

SECTION 1.1. Transfer of Options and Partnership Interests.

Upon the terms and subject to the conditions contained herein, Parent shall sell, convey, transfer, assign and deliver to Purchaser, and Purchaser shall acquire at the Closing, the Options. Immediately following such purchase and sale of the Options, Purchaser shall exercise the Options by delivering to the Corporations an exercise notice (the “Exercise Notice”) substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B and paying the Option Exercise Price, and Purchaser and Sellers shall consummate the purchase and sale of the Partnership Interests as set forth herein. Each Corporation agrees that the exercise by the Purchaser at the Closing of the Option granted by such Corporation, on the terms of this Agreement instead of pursuant to the procedures set forth in the contribution agreement pursuant to which such Option was granted, will constitute a valid exercise of such Option.

SECTION 1.2. Closing.

The closing of the purchase and sale of the Options and the Partnership Interests pursuant to this Agreement (the “Closing”) shall occur at the offices of Xxxxx & Xxxxxxx L.L.P., 0000 Xxxxxxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxx 0000, Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx, at 10:00 a.m. local time on the second Thursday following full satisfaction or due waiver of all of the closing conditions set forth in Article VII hereof (other than those to be satisfied by actions to be taken at the Closing), or such other time and place as may be mutually agreed. The date upon which the Closing actually occurs is referred to herein as the “Closing Date”.

SECTION 1.3. Purchase Price; Closing Cash Payment.

(a) Upon the terms and subject to the conditions contained herein, as consideration for the purchase of the Options, Purchaser shall pay to Parent an aggregate purchase price equal to the Enterprise Value less the Option Exercise Price (the “Option Purchase Price”). The aggregate consideration for the Transactions (the “Purchase Price”) shall be an amount equal to (i) the Option Exercise Price plus (ii) the Option Purchase Price, as adjusted in accordance with Section 1.5.

(b) Not fewer than three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing, Parent shall deliver to Purchaser a statement (the “Estimated Closing Statement”) setting forth Parent’s good faith estimates of the amounts of Closing Working Capital and Closing Cash as of 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the Closing Date (the “Adjustment Time”), and a calculation of the Enterprise Value and Option Purchase Price based on the foregoing estimates (the “Estimated Enterprise Value” and “Estimated Option Purchase Price,” respectively).

(c) At the Closing, the Purchaser shall pay in cash (i) to the Corporations, the Option Exercise Price, (ii) to the Parent, a portion of the Estimated Option Purchase Price (the “Closing Cash Payment”) equal to the Estimated Option Purchase Price less (A) the amounts paid pursuant to clause (iii) below in respect of the Bank Facility and (B) the Escrow Amount, and (iii) on behalf of the Companies (and each of the Sellers as guarantors), all amounts then due under the Bank Facility (including all prepayment premiums, penalties or other like charges) as set forth in the payoff letter delivered to Purchaser as provided in Section 7.2(c)(vii), with the effect that the Bank Facility and related documentation shall be terminated effective as of the Closing (other than any provision thereof that, by its terms, survives such repayment). For illustrative purposes only, Schedule 1.3(c) attached hereto sets forth an example of the calculation of the cash payments to be made at Closing in accordance with this Section 1.3(c).

SECTION 1.4. Closing Deliveries.

(a) Closing Deliveries by Sellers. To effect the transactions referred to in Section 1.1 (the “Transactions”), Sellers shall, on the Closing Date, deliver to Purchaser the following:

(i) one or more instruments transferring to Purchaser the Options and the Partnership Interests, in form reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser;

(ii) copies of all consents, approvals, releases, and waivers from Governmental Entities and other third parties, including Landlord Approvals, relating to the Transactions that have been obtained; and

(iii) all other documents required to be delivered by Sellers pursuant to Article VII not specifically mentioned above in this Section 1.4(a).

All instruments and documents executed and delivered to Purchaser pursuant hereto shall be in form and substance, and shall be executed in a manner, reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser and its counsel.

(b) Closing Deliveries by Purchaser. To effect the Transactions, Purchaser shall, on the Closing Date, deliver the following:

(i) the Exercise Notice;

(ii) the Closing Cash Payment by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account (the “Seller Account”) designated by Parent not fewer than three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing Date;

(iii) the Option Exercise Price, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Seller Account (for the account of the Corporations);

(iv) the Escrow Amount by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Escrow Agent; and

(v) all other documents required to be delivered by Purchaser pursuant to Article VII not specifically mentioned above in this Section 1.4(b).

All instruments and documents executed and delivered to Sellers pursuant hereto shall be in form and substance, and shall be executed in a manner, reasonably satisfactory to Parent and its counsel.

(c) Other Actions to be Taken prior to and at the Closing. To further facilitate the Transactions: (i) not fewer than seven (7) nor greater than fifteen (15) days prior to the Closing Date, Purchaser will deliver to the Commonwealth 20 Landlord notice of the Closing Date, as required by Section 3 of the Commonwealth 20 Landlord Agreement, (ii) on or prior to the Closing Date, Purchaser will cause to be delivered to the Commonwealth 20 Landlord the REG Guaranty (as that term is defined in the Commonwealth 20 Landlord Agreement), duly executed by each of Purchaser, Regal Entertainment Group, a Delaware corporation, Regal Entertainment Holdings and Regal Cinemas Corporation, and Purchaser will cause the Security Deposit (as that term is defined in the Commonwealth 20 Lease) to be delivered to the Commonwealth 20 Landlord as contemplated by Section 2 of the Commonwealth 20 Landlord Agreement, each in accordance with the Commonwealth 20 Landlord Agreement, and (iii) Sellers will complete the list of deferred maintenance items as set forth on page 3 of the Xxxxx Fargo Annual Property Inspection Report relating to the inspection of the Commonwealth 20 building on August 19, 2007 prior to the Closing Date, but in no event later than 90 days after January 7, 2008.

SECTION 1.5. Adjustment to Purchase Price.

(a) No later than the 75th day after the Closing Date, Purchaser shall prepare and deliver to Parent a consolidated balance sheet of the Companies as of the Adjustment Time (the “Closing Balance Sheet”), together with a statement (the “Closing Statement”) setting forth Purchaser’s determination of Closing Working Capital, Closing Cash and Enterprise Value, and a calculation of the Purchase Price based on the foregoing determinations. Purchaser shall prepare the Closing Balance Sheet and the Closing Statement (including the determinations included therein) in accordance with Section 1.5(e).

(b) During the 30-day period immediately following Parent’s receipt of the Closing Balance Sheet and the Closing Statement (or during the 30-day period immediately following the 75-day period described in Section 1.5(a), if Purchaser fails to deliver the Closing Balance Sheet and the Closing Statement to Parent within the 75-day period provided in Section 1.5(a) (in which case, for purposes of this Section 1.5(b), the Estimated Closing Certificate shall be treated as the Closing Balance Sheet and the Closing Statement and will be deemed to have been delivered to Parent on the 75th day after the Closing Date)), Parent and its advisors and representatives (i) shall be permitted to review, upon reasonable notice, the Companies’ books and records and the working papers related to the preparation of the Closing Balance Sheet and the Closing Statement (including the determinations included therein), and (ii) shall be given reasonable access, upon reasonable notice, to knowledgeable employees and accounting professionals of Purchaser and the Companies in order to facilitate Parent’s review of the Closing Balance Sheet and the Closing Statement; provided that the review and access described in clauses (i) and (ii) shall be conducted at times and in a manner that does not unreasonably interfere with the operation of Purchaser’s or the Companies’ respective businesses. The Closing Balance Sheet and the Closing Statement (including the determinations included therein) shall become final, binding and conclusive upon Purchaser and Sellers (A) on the 30th day following Parent’s receipt thereof, unless Purchaser receives from Parent prior to such 30th day written notice of Parent’s disagreement (a “Dispute Notice”) with any account or determination set forth in the Closing Balance Sheet or the Closing Statement or (B) on such earlier date as Parent notifies Purchaser that it does not dispute the Closing Balance Sheet and Closing Statement. If Parent timely delivers a Dispute Notice, then the determination of the Purchase Price shall become final, binding and conclusive upon Purchaser and Sellers on the first to occur of (x) the date on which Purchaser and Parent resolve in writing all differences they have with respect to the disputed items or (y) the date on which all of the disputed items that are not resolved by Purchaser and Parent in writing are finally resolved in writing by the Independent Accountants in accordance with Section 1.5(c).

(c) During the 30 days following delivery of a Dispute Notice, Purchaser and Parent shall seek in good faith to resolve in writing any differences that they have with respect to the disputed items. Any disputed item resolved in writing by Purchaser and Parent shall be deemed final, binding and conclusive on Purchaser and Sellers. If Purchaser and Parent do not reach agreement on all of the disputed items during such 30-day period (or such longer period as they shall mutually agree), then at the end of such 30-day (or longer) period Purchaser and Parent shall submit all unresolved disputed items (collectively, the “Unresolved Items”) to Ernst & Young LLP (the “Independent Accountants”) to review and resolve such matters and each will specify to the other and to the Independent Accountant its determination of the amount of the

Purchase Price (a party’s “Proposed Price”). The Independent Accountants will determine each Unresolved Item in accordance with this Section 1.5(c) and Section 1.5(e) as promptly as may be reasonably practicable, and Purchaser and Parent shall instruct the Independent Accountants to endeavor to complete such process within a period of no more than 60 days. The Independent Accountants may conduct such proceedings as the Independent Accountants believe, in their sole discretion, will assist in the determination of the Unresolved Items; provided that, except as Purchaser and Parent may otherwise agree in writing, all communications between Purchaser and Parent or any of their respective representatives, on the one hand, and the Independent Accountants, on the other hand, shall be in writing with copies simultaneously delivered to the non-communicating party. The Independent Accountants’ determination of the Unresolved Items shall be final, binding and conclusive on Purchaser and Sellers, effective as of the date the Independent Accountants’ written determination is received by Purchaser and Parent. The fees and expenses of the Independent Accountants shall be borne as follows: (x) by Parent, in a portion equal to a fraction, the numerator of which is the absolute difference between Parent’s Proposed Price and the Purchase Price determined by the Independent Accountants and the denominator of which is the absolute difference between Parent’s Proposed Price and the Purchaser’s Proposed Price, and (y) by Purchaser, in a portion equal to one (1) minus the fraction described in the preceding clause (x).

(d) Within five (5) Business Days after the final determination of the Purchase Price pursuant to Section 1.5(b) or Section 1.5(c) (the “Final Purchase Price”), either (i) if the Estimated Purchase Price exceeds the Final Purchase Price, then Parent will pay to Purchaser the amount of such excess, or (ii) if the Final Purchase Price exceeds the Estimated Purchase Price, then Purchaser will pay to Parent the amount of such excess. Any payment to be made pursuant to this Section 1.5(d) will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account specified by the party to receive such payment.

(e) For the purposes of this Agreement, each accounting term will have the meaning that is applied thereto in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) as in effect on December 31, 2006 and, to the extent consistent with GAAP as in effect on December 31, 2006, the accounting principles, policies, procedures and methodologies applied in preparing the balance sheet that is part of the Audited Financial Statements and the accompanying statement of income. Each account included in the Closing Statement and the Closing Balance Sheet shall be (i) calculated in accordance with GAAP as in effect on December 31, 2006, and, to the extent consistent with GAAP as in effect on December 31, 2006, utilizing the accounting principles, policies, procedures and methodologies applied in preparing the Company Financial Statements (without regard to materiality), including with respect to the nature or classification of accounts, and determining levels of reserves or levels of accruals; and (ii) consistent with the books and records of the Companies and the definitions herein; provided that in determining current assets and liabilities hereunder, (A) all accounting entries shall be taken into account regardless of their amount and all known errors and omissions shall be corrected, (B) all known proper adjustments shall be made, and (C) appropriate reserves for all known and quantifiable liabilities and obligations for which reserves are appropriate in accordance with GAAP as in effect on December 31, 2006 shall be included.

SECTION 1.6. Escrow.

At the Closing, the Escrow Amount shall be paid to the Escrow Agent as described in Section 1.4 and deposited by the Escrow Agent into an interest-bearing escrow account pursuant to the Escrow Agreement. On the Business Day after the Survival Date, the portion of the Escrow Amount then held by the Escrow Agent, plus any interest or other earnings on the Escrow Amount and then held by the Escrow Agent, less the aggregate amount of any unresolved outstanding claims on the Escrow Account made by the Seller-Indemnified Persons pursuant to Section 8.3, shall be distributed to Parent pursuant to the terms of the Escrow Agreement. Purchaser shall be entitled to be paid from the Escrow Amount and any interest or other earnings on the Escrow Amount, in each case held by the Escrow Agent from time to time, any amount that any Seller is required to pay to Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement that has not been paid to Purchaser in accordance with the provisions hereof and any indemnity payment required to be made by Sellers pursuant to Article VIII of this Agreement, in each case pursuant to the terms of the Escrow Agreement.

SECTION 1.7. Retained Leases.

Sellers acknowledge and agree that the Partnership and the Companies have no right, title or interest in or to that certain (i) Lease Agreement dated March 18, 2001 by and between Remington San Simeon, L.L.C. and Consolidated Theatres, as amended, and (ii) Lease Agreement dated as of November 8, 1993 by and between Fairview Plaza Associates Limited Partnership and Consolidated Theatres, Inc., as amended, which leases and all obligations and liabilities associated therewith shall be retained in their entirety by Sellers.

No Company has any Subsidiary, or owns any Equity Security of any entity, other than another Company. Sellers have made available to Purchaser complete and accurate copies of the certificate of formation and limited liability company agreement of each Company other than the Partnership, and the minutes of the meetings of the partners of the Partnership and members of each other Company that are in its possession.

Each party will (i) promptly notify the other parties of any written communication to that party from any Governmental Entity and permit the outside counsel for the other parties to review in advance any proposed written communication to any such Governmental Entity, (ii) not agree to participate in any substantive meeting or discussion with any such Governmental Entity in respect of any filing, investigation or inquiry concerning this Agreement or the Transactions unless it consults with the outside counsel for the other parties in advance and, to the extent permitted by such Governmental Entity, gives the other parties the opportunity to attend the same, and (iii) furnish the outside counsel of the other

parties with copies of all correspondence, filings and written communications with any Governmental Entity with respect to this Agreement.

(c) Purchaser agrees to take any and all steps necessary to avoid or eliminate each and every impediment and obtain all consents under any Antitrust Law that may be required by any Governmental Entity of competent jurisdiction, so as to enable the parties to close the Transactions expeditiously, but in no case later than the Termination Date, including committing to or effecting, by consent decree, hold separate orders, trust, or otherwise, any Divestiture(s) or licenses of such assets or businesses as may be required in order to obtain the expiration of the HSR waiting period, or avoid the entry of, or to effect the dissolution of or vacate or lift, any Order, that would otherwise have the effect of preventing or materially delaying the consummation of the Transactions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 6.3, nothing in this Agreement will require Purchaser to take any action, including entering into any consent decree, hold separate orders or other arrangements, that requires the Divestiture of any assets that, in the aggregate, accounted for greater than $3,500,000 in Theatre Level Cash Flow during the trailing twelve fiscal months of the entity or entities in question ended nearest to September 30, 2007.

(d) Each of Sellers and Purchaser shall give (or shall cause their respective Affiliates to give) any notices to other Persons, and shall use, and cause each of their respective Affiliates to use, its reasonable best efforts to obtain any third-party consents not covered by Sections 6.3(a) through 6.3(c), that are necessary, proper or advisable to consummate the Transactions and to cause the conditions to the Transactions set forth in Sections 7.2 and 7.3 to be satisfied. Each of the parties hereto will furnish to the others such necessary information and reasonable assistance as the other may request in connection with the preparation of any required governmental filings or submissions and will cooperate in responding to any inquiry from a Governmental Entity, including immediately informing the other party of such inquiry, consulting in advance before making any presentations or submissions to a Governmental Entity, and supplying each other with copies of all material correspondence, filings or communications between any party and any Governmental Entity with respect to this Agreement. The parties shall have the right to review in advance, and to the extent reasonably practicable each will consult the other on, all information relating to the other and each of their respective Subsidiaries and Affiliates that appears in any filing made with, or written materials submitted to, any third party or any Governmental Entity in connection with the Transactions. The parties and their respective representatives shall have the right to participate, to the extent reasonably practicable, in any meeting or discussion with any Governmental Entity in respect of any filing, investigation or inquiry concerning this Agreement or any of the Transactions.

(e) All sales and transfer taxes, recording charges and similar taxes, fees or charges imposed as a result of the sale and transfer of the Options and the Partnership Interests to Purchaser (collectively, the “Transfer Taxes”) together with any interest, penalties or additions to such Transfer Taxes shall be paid one-half by Sellers and one-half by Purchaser. Sellers and Purchaser shall cooperate in timely making all filings, returns, reports and forms necessary or appropriate to comply with the provisions of all applicable laws in connection with the payment of such Transfer Taxes, and shall cooperate in good faith to minimize, to the fullest extent possible under such laws, the amount of any such Transfer Taxes payable in connection therewith.

(f) Prior to the Closing, Sellers will not, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries and its and their respective Affiliates, officers, directors and employees to not, directly or indirectly (i) solicit, initiate or encourage any Acquisition Proposal, (ii) enter into any agreement with respect to any Acquisition Proposal or (iii) continue or participate in any discussions or negotiations regarding, or furnish to any Person any information with respect to, or take any other action to facilitate any inquiries or the making of any proposal that constitutes, or may reasonably be expected to lead to, any Acquisition Proposal.

SECTION 6.4. Public Announcements.

Prior to the Closing, Purchaser and Sellers shall consult with each other prior to issuing any press release or otherwise making any public statements with respect to the Transactions and neither party shall issue any such press release or make any such public statement without the other party’s written approval, except as may be required by Law, in which case the other party shall be advised and the parties shall use reasonable efforts to cause a mutually agreeable release or announcement to be issued to the extent practicable.

SECTION 6.5. Employee Matters.

Purchaser shall be responsible for all obligations arising under or pursuant to COBRA for all “M & A qualified beneficiaries” as defined under Treas. Reg. §54.4980B-9, and Purchaser agrees that the employees of Consolidated Theatres Management, LLC as of the Closing Date (and the COBRA-eligible former employees of Consolidated Theatres Management, LLC as of the Closing Date) shall be considered such “M&A qualified beneficiaries” regardless of whether they technically satisfy the definition of “M&A qualified beneficiary” set forth in Treas. Reg. Sec. 54.4980B-9. For the avoidance of doubt, it is understood that any “M&A qualified beneficiary” who elects to receive COBRA coverage from Purchaser must pay (or have paid on his or her behalf) the COBRA premium amount in order to obtain such coverage. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to limit the ability of Purchaser, or any Company to terminate the employment of any employee of any Company at any time and for any or no reason on or after the Closing. No provision of this Section 6.5 shall create any third party beneficiary rights in any Person, including any employee or former employee of any Company or any beneficiary or dependent of any such employee or former employee. In addition, nothing contained in this Agreement, express or implied: (i) shall be construed to establish, amend, or modify any benefit plan, program, agreement or arrangement; (ii) shall alter or limit the ability of Purchaser, the Companies, or any of their Affiliates to amend, modify or terminate any benefit plan, program, agreement or arrangement at any time assumed, established, sponsored or maintained by any of them; or (iii) is intended to confer upon any current or former employee of any Company or any other Person any right to employment or continued employment for any period of time by reason of this Agreement, or any right to a particular term or condition of employment.

SECTION 6.6. Labor Matters; WARN.

(a) Purchaser shall not, and shall cause the Companies not to, at any time prior to the 61st day following the Closing Date, without fully complying with the notice and other requirements of the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act of 1988 (“WARN Act”), effectuate (i) a “plant closing” (as defined in the WARN Act) affecting any site of

employment or one or more facilities or operating units within any site of employment of the Companies, or (ii) a “mass layoff” (as defined in the WARN Act) affecting any site of employment of the Companies.

(b) If Purchaser takes any action within 180 days after the Closing Date that independently, or in connection with any reduction in the size of the Companies’ work force occurring within the ninety day period prior to the Closing Date, could be construed as a “plant closing” or “mass layoff,” as those terms are defined in the WARN Act, Purchaser shall be solely responsible for providing any notice required by the WARN Act and for making payments, if any, and paying all penalties and costs, if any, that may result from any failure to provide such notice.

SECTION 6.7. Information, Etc.

Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that neither any Seller nor any Affiliate or representative of any Seller has made any representation or warranty, expressed or implied, as to any Company or as to the accuracy or completeness of any information regarding any Company furnished or made available to Purchaser and its representatives, except as expressly set forth in Articles II and III, or any Related Agreement, and Sellers shall not have or be subject to any liability to Purchaser or any other Person resulting from the distribution to Purchaser, or Purchaser’s use of or reliance on, any such information or any information, documents or material made available to Purchaser in any data room, presentations or in any other form (including the Confidential Information Memorandum dated Summer 2007 prepared by “UBS Investment Bank” concerning the Companies) in expectation of, or in connection with, the transactions contemplated hereby.

SECTION 6.8. Notification.

(a) Between the date of this Agreement and the Closing Date, Sellers shall notify Purchaser in writing if Sellers acquire Knowledge of any fact or condition that causes or constitutes a breach of any of Sellers’ representations and warranties as of the date of this Agreement, or if Sellers acquire Knowledge of the occurrence of any fact or condition that would (except as expressly contemplated by this Agreement) cause or constitute a breach of any such representation or warranty had such representation or warranty been made as of the time of occurrence or discovery of such fact or condition. Should any such fact or condition require any change in Sellers’ Schedules (or the addition of one or more schedules to describe one or more exceptions to the representations and warranties set forth in Articles II and III) if such Schedules were dated the date of the occurrence or discovery of any such fact or condition, Sellers shall promptly deliver to Purchaser a supplement to the Schedules specifying such change(s).

(b) If matters disclosed in a notification or supplement delivered pursuant to Section 6.8(a) (and in any other notification(s) or supplement(s) theretofore delivered pursuant to Section 6.8(a)) could reasonably be expected to result in Damages (including for the purposes of this Section 6.8(b), consequential damages, lost profits, indirect damages, punitive damages and exemplary damages) in an aggregate amount that exceeds $12,000,000 (and Sellers so state in writing when they deliver such notification or supplement and include a written description in reasonable detail of Sellers’ basis for such determination), then Purchaser shall have the right to

terminate this Agreement by giving written notice to that effect to Sellers not later than the tenth (10th) Business Day after the delivery of such notification or supplement (and, if necessary, the Closing will be postponed to such tenth (10th) Business Day); provided that if Purchaser has the right to, but does not, so elect to terminate this Agreement within such ten (10) Business Day period and subsequently Sellers deliver to Purchaser one or more additional notifications or supplements pursuant to Section 6.8(a), then Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this Agreement within ten (10) Business Days after the delivery of each such additional notification or supplement.

(c) If matters disclosed in a notification or supplement delivered pursuant to Section 6.8(a) (and in any other notification(s) or supplement(s) theretofore delivered pursuant to Section 6.8(a)) could reasonably be expected to result in Damages (including for the purposes of this Section 6.8(c), consequential damages, lost profits, indirect damages, punitive damages and exemplary damages, but excluding for purposes of this Section 6.8(c) all such extent actual or anticipated Damages to the extent they arise out of or are anticipated to arise out of acts or omissions of any Seller or the Partnership that are material violations or breaches of any covenant or agreement set forth in this Agreement) in an aggregate amount that exceeds $21,000,000 (and Sellers so state in writing when they deliver such notification or supplement and include a written description in reasonable detail of Sellers’ basis for such determination), then Sellers shall have the right to terminate this Agreement by giving written notice to that effect to Purchaser not later than the tenth (10th) Business Day after the delivery of such notification or supplement; provided that if Sellers have the right to, but do not, so elect not to terminate this Agreement within such ten (10) Business Day period and subsequently Sellers deliver to Purchaser one or more additional notifications or supplements pursuant to Section 6.8(a), then Sellers shall have the right to terminate this Agreement within ten (10) Business Days after the delivery of each such additional notification or supplement.

(d) Whether or not Purchaser has the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 6.8(b), then the delivery of such notification(s) or supplement(s) shall not be deemed to amend or supplement Seller’s Schedules for purposes of Article VIII or prevent or cure any such breach for purposes of Article VIII or otherwise affect any rights of Purchaser under Article VIII (except as provided in the proviso in the first sentence of Section 8.1(c)). If Purchaser does not have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 6.8(b), then the delivery of such notification(s) and supplement(s) shall not be deemed to amend or supplement Seller’s Schedules for purposes of Articles VII and IX or prevent or cure any breach for purposes of such Articles or otherwise affect any rights of Purchaser under Articles VII and IX.

(e) If Purchaser has the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 6.8(b) following the delivery of any notification or supplement pursuant to Section 6.8(a) and does not do so within the ten (10) Business Day period referred to therein, then all such disclosures included in such notification or supplement or any other notification or supplement delivered pursuant to Section 6.8(a) delivered to Purchaser prior to the first day of such ten (10) Business Day period shall be deemed accepted by Purchaser (other than for purposes of Article VIII), the condition to Closing set forth in Section 7.2(a) shall be deemed waived with respect to the matters so disclosed in any such notification or supplement, and the disclosure relative to Sellers’ representations and warranties shall be deemed modified or supplemented as indicated in all such notifications and supplements for purposes of Article IX.

(f) In addition to the foregoing, between the date of this Agreement and the Closing Date, Sellers shall promptly notify Purchaser of the occurrence of any breach of any covenant of Sellers or the Companies in Article V or this Article VI of the occurrence of any event that may make the satisfaction of the conditions in Article VII impossible or unlikely.

SECTION 6.9. Contacts with Suppliers, Customers and Other Parties.

Without the prior written consent of Sellers, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, prior to the Closing, Purchaser shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates and representatives not to, contact any suppliers or independent contractors to, or customers of or any of the Companies, any employees of any of the Companies, counterparties to any management agreement or other contract to which any Company is a party, or any Governmental Entity (other than in connection with any filings made under the HSR Act or in connection with other consents, approvals or waivers required to be obtained by Purchaser from Governmental Entities in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby or as required by applicable Law) in connection with or pertaining to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

SECTION 6.10. Kingstowne Litigation.

If the Kingstowne Litigation has not been resolved in its entirety by one or more Final Judgments as of the Adjustment Time, then Parent shall use reasonable efforts to cause the Companies to assign, prior to the Closing, all of the Companies’ right, title and interest in and with respect to the Kingstowne Litigation to Parent or Parent’s designee (other than the Companies), without any consideration to the Companies. In the event that the Companies are prohibited from assigning the Kingstowne Litigation to Parent or its designee prior to the Closing, or Parent reasonably concludes that such an assignment could adversely affect the validity or value of such claim, then from and after the Closing, Purchaser shall cause the Companies to use commercially reasonable efforts to pursue the claims that are the subject of the Kingstowne Litigation, including by means of an appeal of any judgment rendered in connection therewith, and to collect any amount that becomes payable to any Company in respect of such claims. In such event, at any Seller’s written request, Purchaser shall permit Sellers to conduct the pursuit of such claims (including the settlement or other compromise and/or the collection of any such amount) on behalf of the Companies using legal counsel selected by Sellers that is reasonably acceptable to Purchaser, and will cause the Companies to cooperate with Sellers in the pursuit of such claims and the collection of any such amount as any Seller may reasonably request. In the event that Sellers elect to conduct the pursuit of such claims and/or the collection of any such amount:

(a) Purchaser shall not, and shall not cause or permit any Company to, settle or otherwise comprise any such claim (including by consenting to the entry of any judgment) without Parent’s prior written consent;

(b) Sellers will (i) reimburse Purchaser for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred by any Company in connection with the pursuit of such claims and/or the collection of any such

amount that becomes payable to any Company, within five (5) Business Days after such entity’s payment thereof and notice to Sellers and (ii) pay to Purchaser reasonable compensation for man-hours expended in the pursuit of such claims; and

(c) Purchaser will cause the Companies to pay over to Sellers any amount delivered to the Companies in respect of such claims, within five (5) Business Days after such entity’s receipt thereof.

Without limiting the foregoing, if an assignment of the type described in the first sentence of this Section 6.10 does not occur at or prior to the Closing, then after the Closing, at Parent’s expense, Purchaser will take such actions as Parent may reasonably request to effectuate such an assignment.

SECTION 6.11. Landlord Approvals, Estoppels; SNDAs; Memoranda of Leases.

(a) With respect to each Lease for which a Landlord Approval is required, Sellers shall promptly after the date of this Agreement request that the lessor thereunder grant such Landlord Approval. In connection with such request, Purchaser shall furnish to such landlord all materials required by the related Lease as a condition to or in connection with such a request, and such other information as such landlord may reasonably request from time to time. Purchaser and Sellers shall use reasonable best efforts to promptly obtain each Landlord Approval. Within five (5) calendar days of receipt of any Landlord Approval executed by any such lessor, Sellers shall deliver a true and complete copy thereof to Purchaser.

(b) With respect to each Lease, Sellers shall promptly after the date of this Agreement request that the lessor thereunder execute an estoppel (a “Lessor Estoppel”) in the form of Exhibit C attached hereto. Sellers and Purchaser shall use reasonable best efforts to promptly obtain such a Lessor Estoppel from each such lessor. Sellers and Purchaser shall make such modifications to the forms attached hereto as Exhibit C as such lessors shall reasonably request. Within five (5) calendar days of receipt of any Lessor Estoppel executed by any such lessor, Sellers shall deliver a true and complete copy thereof to Purchaser.

(c) With respect to each Lease which is a sublease, Sellers shall promptly after the date of this Agreement request that each superior lessor execute a commercially reasonable non-disturbance agreement in form and substance reasonably requested by Purchaser. Sellers and Purchaser shall use reasonable best efforts to promptly obtain such a non-disturbance agreement, and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser; provided that Sellers shall have no such obligation with respect to any superior lessor that has previously executed such a commercially reasonable non-disturbance agreement in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Purchaser.

(d) With respect to each Lease which is, or may be, subordinate to a mortgage or deed of trust executed by the lessor, or by a superior lessor, Sellers shall promptly after the date of this Agreement request that the mortgagee or beneficiary of each such deed of trust execute a non-disturbance agreement in form and substance reasonably requested by Purchaser. Sellers and

Purchaser shall use reasonable best efforts to promptly obtain such a non-disturbance agreement; provided that Sellers shall have no such obligation with respect to any mortgagee or beneficiary that has previously executed such a non-disturbance agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Purchaser.

(e) With respect to each Lease for which a memorandum of lease is not recorded in the official real property records in which the Leased Real Property is located, Sellers shall promptly after the date of this Agreement request that the lessor thereunder execute a memorandum of lease in form and substance reasonably requested by Purchaser. Sellers and Purchaser shall use reasonable best efforts to promptly obtain such memoranda of lease, duly executed and acknowledged by such lessor and otherwise in recordable form. Within five (5) calendar days of receipt by Sellers of any such memorandum executed by any such lessor, Sellers shall deliver a true and complete copy thereof to Purchaser.

(f) Purchaser may refuse to approve a lessor consent or estoppel on any reasonable grounds. Purchaser shall use reasonable best efforts to obtain releases of all guaranties of any Company’s obligations given by any Person under any Lease, including furnishing any guaranties, additional deposits, letters of credit or other security for performance of the lessee’s obligations under any of the Leases that any landlord may reasonably request.

(g) Notwithstanding anything set forth in any estoppel, consent, non-disturbance agreement or other memorandum which is executed or delivered pursuant to this Section 6.11, as between Purchaser and Sellers, this Agreement shall govern the rights, interests, obligations and liabilities under and with respect to the Leases.

SECTION 6.12. Non-Competition Agreement Amendment.

Prior to the Closing, Sellers shall use their reasonable best efforts to cause Section 7(a) of the Executive Employment Agreement dated as of November 1, 2003 between Consolidated Theatres Management, L.L.C. and E. Xxxxx Xxxxx XX (the “Xxxxx Employment Agreement”) to be amended to delete the proviso to the second sentence thereof.

SECTION 6.13. ABRY Indemnification Letter.

Prior to the Closing, Sellers shall obtain the agreement of ABRY Partners, LLC or an affiliate thereof reasonably acceptable to Purchaser (“ABRY”) to execute and deliver at Closing an indemnification letter for the benefit of Purchaser substantially in the form of Exhibit D attached hereto (the “ABRY Indemnification Letter”).

ARTICLE VIII

INDEMNIFICATION

SECTION 8.1. Indemnification of Purchaser.

(a) Sellers agree that, after the Closing, subject to the limitations set forth in this Article VIII, Sellers shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Purchaser and its officers, directors, agents and representatives (each hereinafter referred to individually as a “Seller-Indemnified Person” and collectively as “Seller-Indemnified Persons”), from and against any and all claims, demands, suits, actions, causes of actions, losses, costs, damages, liabilities and out-of-pocket expenses incurred or paid, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs of investigation or settlement, other professionals’ and experts’ fees, and court or arbitration costs but specifically excluding (except to the extent the same may be awarded to a third party in a Third-Party Claim) consequential damages, lost profits, indirect damages, punitive damages and exemplary damages (collectively referred to as “Damages”), to have arisen out of or to have resulted from, in connection with, or by virtue of (i) facts or circumstances that constitute an inaccuracy, misrepresentation, breach of, default in, or failure to perform, any of the representations, warranties or covenants given or made by Sellers in this Agreement or in the certificate delivered pursuant to Section 7.2(c)(i) (collectively, the “Limited-Indemnity Items”), (ii) the High Point Litigation, (iii) Closing Indebtedness, (iv) the leases retained by Sellers pursuant to Section 1.7, or (v) any action, suit, investigation, or proceeding disclosed on Schedule 3.5 with respect to which the defense is not being provided or paid for by the insurer (collectively with the Limited-Indemnity Items, the High Point Litigation, Closing Indebtedness and the retained leases, the “Seller Indemnified Items”). For the avoidance of doubt, no Seller-Indemnified Person shall be entitled to be indemnified pursuant to this Section 8.1 for any liability to the extent such liability is actually reflected in the Closing Working Capital used to determine the Final Purchase Price.

(b) Any claim for indemnification made by a Seller-Indemnified Person under this Section 8.1 in respect of the Limited-Indemnity Items must be asserted in a writing delivered to Sellers no later than the Survival Date and, if asserted by such date, such claim shall survive the Survival Date until final resolution thereof. The right to indemnification, reimbursement or other remedy based upon such representations, warranties, covenants and obligations shall not be affected by any investigation (including any environmental investigation or assessment) conducted with respect to, or any knowledge acquired (or capable of being acquired) at any time, whether before or after the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the Closing Date. Except as provided in the proviso to the first sentence of Section 8.1(c), the waiver of any covenant or condition will not affect the right to indemnification, reimbursement or other remedy.

(c) The aggregate liability of Sellers on account of all Limited-Indemnity Items pursuant to Section 8.1 shall be limited to $12,000,000 (the “Limited-Indemnity Cap”), and claims for Damages in respect of Limited-Indemnity Items shall be limited to such amount, whether the Seller-Indemnified Person in question is the Purchaser or another Seller-Indemnified Person; provided that, if Purchaser has the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 6.8 prior to the Closing and does not do so, then the Limited-Indemnity Cap will be reduced by the amount, if any, of the Limited 6.8 Liabilities included in determining the Closing Working Capital Adjustment (but not by an amount that exceeds the Closing Working Capital Adjustment). Without limiting the foregoing, the Seller-Indemnified Persons’ sole recourse in respect of Limited-Indemnity Items shall be to the amounts held from to time by the Escrow Agent and not theretofore released pursuant to the Escrow Agreement. In addition, the indemnification provided for in this Section 8.1 in respect of the Limited-Indemnity Items shall not apply unless and until the aggregate Damages determined to be due for which one or more Seller-Indemnified Persons seeks or has sought indemnification hereunder in respect of Limited-Indemnity Items exceeds a cumulative aggregate of $2,500,000 (the “Deductible”), in which event the Seller-Indemnified Persons shall, subject to the other limitations herein, be indemnified for such Damages to the extent in excess of the Deductible. Notwithstanding the foregoing limitations, Sellers shall indemnify Purchaser from and against the entirety of any Damages arising from facts or circumstances that constitute fraud or willful breach of any covenant by Sellers.

(d) In view of the Deductible, and solely for purposes of determining the amount of any Damages, the representations and warranties of Sellers set forth in this Agreement (or in any instrument, certificate or affidavit delivered at the Closing with respect thereto) shall be considered without regard to any qualification based on materiality or “Material Adverse Effect” set forth therein.

(e) The amount to which a Seller-Indemnified Person may become entitled under this Article VIII shall be net of any actual recovery (whether by way of payment, discount, credit, off-set, counterclaim or otherwise) received from a third party (including any insurer) less any cost associated with receiving such recovery in respect of a claim. To the extent that insurance, “pass-through” warranty coverage from a manufacturer or other form of recovery or reimbursement from a third party is available to any Seller-Indemnified Person to cover any item for which indemnification may be sought hereunder, Purchaser shall, or shall cause each other Seller-Indemnified Person to, on a timely and expeditious basis, use commercially reasonable efforts to effect recovery under applicable insurance policies, and use commercially reasonable efforts to pursue to conclusion available remedies or causes of action to recover the amount of its claim as may be available from such other party; provided that the availability of a potential recovery against such a third party shall not affect Purchaser’s right to make a claim for indemnity pursuant to this Section 8.1. To the extent of any indemnification with respect to any claim referred to in the previous sentence, Purchaser shall assign, and Purchaser shall cause each other Seller-Indemnified Person to assign, to Sellers, to the fullest extent allowable, its claim against such insurance, warranty coverage or third-party claim, or in the event assignment is not permissible, but Purchaser or the other Seller-Indemnified Person in question is nonetheless permitted to pursue such claim on Sellers’ behalf, Purchaser shall pursue, or shall cause such other Seller-Indemnified Person to pursue, such claim, at Sellers’ direction and expense and without additional out-of-pocket expense to any Seller-Indemnified Person, with

any recovery thereon to be transmitted promptly to Sellers upon receipt. To the extent that indemnification has not been paid on account of any such claim, any Seller-Indemnified Person may pursue recovery against such insurance warranty coverage or third party and shall be entitled to retain all recoveries made as a result of any such action. Purchaser shall, and shall cause the Companies to, furnish Sellers with such information respecting the assets, business and financial records of Purchaser and the Companies relating to any such claims as Sellers may, from time to time, reasonably request and at the sole cost and expense of Sellers. After the Closing, Purchaser shall maintain in effect, or will cause the Companies to maintain in effect, in each case until the Survival Date, or for such longer time as there remains a Contested Claim, insurance coverage in amounts, and with coverage, not materially less favorable to the Companies than the insurance coverage as maintained by the Companies as of the date of this Agreement. In addition, the amount to which the Seller-Indemnified Persons may become entitled under this Article VIII shall be net of any Tax benefits theretofore realized by Purchaser and its Affiliates (including the Companies, after the Closing) in respect of Damages to be indemnified hereunder, and as and when Purchaser or any of its Affiliates realizes any Tax benefits in respect of Damages theretofore indemnified hereunder, Purchaser shall pay Parent an amount equal to the amount of such Tax benefit so realized.

(f) Each Seller-Indemnified Person shall be responsible for taking or causing to be taken reasonable steps to mitigate its Damages upon and after becoming aware of any event that could reasonably be expected to give rise to Damages that may be indemnifiable under this Article VIII.

SECTION 8.2. Indemnification of Sellers.

(a) Purchaser agrees that, after the Closing, subject to the limitations set forth in this Article VIII, Purchaser shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Sellers, their officers, directors, agents, representatives, and respective successors and assigns, and Xxxxxx Xxxxx and any Affiliate of Xxxxxx Xxxxx with respect to clause (iii) of this Section 8.2(a) (the “Purchaser-Indemnified Persons”), from and against any and all Damages arising out of or resulting from (i) any breach of any representation, warranty or covenant made by Purchaser in this Agreement or in any of the certificates or other instruments or documents furnished by Purchaser pursuant to Section 7.3(e)(i), (ii) the absence of any Landlord Approval (whether or not such Landlord Approval is deemed to have been obtained for purposes of Section 7.2(d)), or (iii) any guaranty entered into prior to the date of this Agreement, or any Lease entered into prior to the date of this Agreement as a co-tenant with a Company, by any Seller, Xxxxxx Xxxxx or any Affiliate of Xxxxxx Xxxxx, to the extent relating to any liability or other obligation of a Company arising after the Closing or reflected in the Closing Working Capital as finally determined pursuant to this Agreement (the “Purchaser Indemnified Items”). Any claim for indemnification made by a Purchaser-Indemnified Person under clause (i) of this Section 8.1 in respect of the Purchaser Indemnified Items must be asserted in a writing delivered to Purchaser by no later than the Survival Date. The aggregate liability of Purchaser on account of all Purchaser Indemnified Items pursuant to clause (i) of this Section 8.2(a) shall be limited to the amount of the Limited Indemnity Cap, and claims for Damages in respect of Purchaser Indemnified Items shall be limited to such amount, whether the Purchaser-Indemnified Person in question is a Seller or another Purchaser-Indemnified Person. In addition, the indemnification provided for in clause (i) of this Section 8.2(a) in respect of the Purchaser Indemnified Items shall not apply unless

and until the aggregate Damages determined to be due for which one or more Purchaser-Indemnified Persons seeks or has sought indemnification hereunder in respect of Purchaser Indemnified Items exceeds the Deductible, in which event the Purchaser-Indemnified Persons shall, subject to the other limitations herein, be indemnified for such Damages to the extent in excess of the Deductible.

(b) In view of the Deductible, and solely for purposes of determining the amount of any Damages, the representations and warranties of Purchaser set forth in this Agreement (or in any instrument, certificate or affidavit delivered at the Closing with respect thereto) shall be considered without regard to any qualification based on materiality or “material adverse effect” set forth therein.

(c) The amount to which a Purchaser-Indemnified Person may become entitled under this Article VIII shall be net of any actual recovery (whether by way of payment, discount, credit, off-set, counterclaim or otherwise) received from a third party (including any insurer) less any cost associated with receiving such recovery in respect of a claim. To the extent that insurance, “pass-through” warranty coverage from a manufacturer or other form of recovery or reimbursement from a third party is available to any Purchaser-Indemnified Person to cover any item for which indemnification may be sought hereunder, Sellers shall, or shall cause each other Purchaser-Indemnified Person to, on a timely and expeditious basis, use commercially reasonable efforts to effect recovery under applicable insurance policies and warranties, and use commercially reasonable efforts to pursue to conclusion available remedies or causes of action to recover the amount of its claim as may be available from such other party; provided that the availability of a potential recovery against such a third party shall not affect any Seller’s right to make a claim for indemnity pursuant to this Section 8.2. To the extent of any indemnification with respect to any claim referred to in the previous sentence, Sellers shall assign, and Sellers shall cause each other Purchaser-Indemnified Person to assign, to Purchaser, to the fullest extent allowable, its claim against such insurance, warranty coverage or third-party claim, or in the event assignment is not permissible, but Sellers or the other Purchaser-Indemnified Person in question is nonetheless permitted to pursue such claim on Purchaser’s behalf, Sellers shall pursue, or shall cause such other Purchaser-Indemnified Person to pursue, such claim, at Purchaser’s direction and expense and without additional out-of-pocket expense to any Purchaser-Indemnified Person, with any recovery thereon to be transmitted promptly to Purchaser upon receipt. To the extent that indemnification has not been paid on account of any such claim, any Purchaser-Indemnified Person may pursue recovery against such insurance warranty coverage or third party and shall be entitled to retain all recoveries made as a result of any such action. In addition, the amount to which the Purchaser-Indemnified Persons may become entitled under this Article VIII shall be net of any Tax benefits theretofore realized by Sellers and their Affiliates in respect of Damages to be indemnified hereunder, and as and when a Seller or any of its Affiliates realizes any Tax benefits in respect of Damages theretofore indemnified hereunder, Sellers shall pay Purchaser an amount equal to the amount of such Tax benefit so realized. Sellers shall furnish Purchaser with such information respecting the assets, business and financial records of Sellers relating to any such claims as Purchaser may, from time to time, reasonably request and at the sole cost and expense of Purchaser.

(d) Each Purchaser-Indemnified Person shall be responsible for taking or causing to be taken reasonable steps to mitigate its Damages upon and after becoming aware of any event that

could reasonably be expected to give rise to Damages that may be indemnifiable under this Article VIII.

SECTION 8.3. Notice of Claim.

(a) As used herein, the term “Claim” means a claim for indemnification by any Seller-Indemnified Person or any Purchaser-Indemnified Person, as the case may be, for Damages under this Article VIII (such Person making a Claim, an “Indemnitee”). An Indemnitee shall give notice of a Claim under this Agreement, whether for its own Damages or for Damages incurred by any other Seller-Indemnified Person or Purchaser-Indemnified Person, as applicable, pursuant to written notice of such Claim executed by an officer of Purchaser or Parent, as applicable (a “Notice of Claim”), and delivered to Parent or Purchaser, as applicable (such receiving party, the “Indemnitor”), promptly after such Indemnitee becomes aware of the existence of any potential claim by such Indemnitee for indemnification under this Article VIII (but in any event not later than the Survival Date, in the case of a Claim relating to a Limited-Liability Item) arising out of or resulting from: (i) any item subject to indemnification pursuant to the terms of Section 8.1 or Section 8.2; or (ii) the assertion, whether orally or in writing, against any Indemnitee of a claim, demand, suit, action, arbitration, investigation, inquiry or proceeding brought by a third party against any Indemnitee (in each such case, a “Third-Party Claim”) that arises out of or results from any item subject to indemnification pursuant to the terms of Section 8.1 or Section 8.2; provided that no failure or delay in the giving of such notice (so long as such notice is given not later than the Survival Date, in the case of a Claim relating to a Limited-Liability Item) shall adversely affect the Indemnitee’s rights with respect to such claim, unless (and then only to the extent that) the Indemnitor is materially prejudiced by such failure or delay.

(b) Each Notice of Claim by an Indemnitee shall contain the following information:

(i) that Indemnitee has incurred or paid or, in good faith, believes it shall have to incur or pay, Damages in an aggregate stated amount (where practicable) arising from such Claim (which amount may be the amount of damages claimed by a third party in an action brought against any Indemnitee based on alleged facts, that if true, would give rise to liability for Damages to such Indemnitee under this Article VIII); and

(ii) a brief description, in reasonable detail (to the extent reasonably available to Indemnitee), of the facts, circumstances or events giving rise to the alleged Damages based on Indemnitee’s good faith belief thereof, including the identity and address of any third-party claimant (to the extent reasonably available to Indemnitee). Following delivery of the Notice of Claim (or at the same time if the Indemnitee so elects) the Indemnitee shall deliver copies of any demand or complaint, the amount of Damages, the date each such item was incurred or paid, or the basis for such anticipated liability, and the specific nature of the breach to which such item is related.

SECTION 8.4. Defense of Third-Party Claims.

(a) Subject to the provisions hereof, the Indemnitor on behalf of the Indemnitee shall have the right to elect to defend any Third-Party Claim, and the costs and expenses incurred by

the Indemnitor in connection with such defense by the Indemnitor (including attorneys’ fees, other professionals’ and experts’ fees and court or arbitration costs) shall be paid by the Indemnitor; provided that Sellers shall be deemed to have elected to defend the High Point Litigation. If the Indemnitor so elects, then the Indemnitee may participate, through counsel of its own choice and at its own expense, in the defense of such Third-Party Claim.

(b) Indemnitee shall give prompt written notice of any Third-Party Claim to the Indemnitor; provided that (so long as such notice is given on or prior to the Survival Date, in the case of a Claim relating to a Limited-Indemnity Item) the failure timely to give such notice shall not limit or reduce the Indemnitee’s right to indemnity hereunder unless (and then only to the extent that) the Indemnitor is prejudiced thereby. The Indemnitor shall be entitled to assume the defense thereof utilizing legal counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnitee; provided that the Indemnitor shall not be entitled to assume control of such defense and shall pay the fees and expenses of counsel retained by the Indemnitee if the claim for indemnification relates to or arises in connection with any criminal proceeding, action, indictment, allegation or investigation.

(c) If the Indemnitor has the right to and does elect to defend any Third-Party Claim, the Indemnitor shall, at the Indemnitee’s request, permit the Indemnitee and its counsel to confer on the conduct of the defense thereof. Purchaser and Sellers shall make available to each other and each other’s counsel and accountants, without charge, all of its or their books and records relating to the Third-Party Claim, and each party will render to the other party such assistance as may be reasonably required in order to insure the proper and adequate defense thereof and shall furnish such records, information and testimony and attend such conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trials and appeals as may be reasonably requested by the other party in connection therewith.

(d) If the Indemnitor has the right to and does elect to defend any Third-Party Claim, the Indemnitor shall have the right to enter into any settlement of a Third-Party Claim without the consent of the Indemnitee; provided that (i) such settlement does not involve any injunctive or other equitable relief binding upon the Indemnitee or any of its Affiliates, and (ii) such settlement expressly and unconditionally releases the Indemnitee from all liability with respect to such claim, without prejudice, other than the obligation to pay any amount that the Indemnitor pays or causes to be paid.

SECTION 8.5. Resolution of Notice of Claim.

Each Notice of Claim given by an Indemnitee shall be resolved as follows:

(a) Admitted Claims. If, within 20 Business Days after a Notice of Claim is delivered to the Indemnitor, the Indemnitor agrees in writing that liability for such Claim is indemnified under Section 8.1 or Section 8.2, as applicable, the full amount of the Damages specified in the Notice of Claim is agreed to, and that such Notice of Claim is timely, the Indemnitor shall be conclusively deemed to have consented to the recovery by the Indemnitee of the full amount of Damages specified in the Notice of Claim in accordance with this Article VIII.

(b) Contested Claims. If the Indemnitor does not agree in writing to such Notice of Claim or gives the other party written notice contesting all or any portion of a Notice of Claim (a “Contested Claim”) within the 20 Business Day period specified in Section 8.5(a), then such Contested Claim shall be resolved by either (i) a written settlement agreement executed by Purchaser and Sellers or (ii) in the absence of such a written settlement agreement within 45 days of such notice or such longer period as is mutually agreed upon by the parties, by binding arbitration between Purchaser and Sellers in accordance with the provisions of this Section 8.5.

(c) Arbitration of Contested Claims. Any Contested Claim that is not settled by the parties as set forth in Section 8.5(b) shall be submitted to mandatory, final and binding arbitration before J.A.M.S./ENDISPUTE or its successor (“J.A.M.S.”) pursuant to the United States Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C., Section 1 et seq., and that any such arbitration shall be conducted in Delaware. If J.A.M.S. ceases to provide arbitration service, then the term “J.A.M.S.” shall thereafter mean and refer to the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”). Either Purchaser or Parent may commence the arbitration process called for by this Agreement by filing a written demand for arbitration with J.A.M.S. and giving a copy of such demand to each of the other party to this Agreement. The arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the provisions of J.A.M.S’ Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures in effect at the time of filing of the demand for arbitration (or, if J.A.M.S. then means the AAA, the commercial arbitration rules of the AAA then in effect), subject to the provisions of this Section 8.5(c). The parties shall cooperate with J.A.M.S. and with each other in promptly selecting an arbitrator from J.A.M.S.’ panel of neutrals and in scheduling the arbitration proceedings in order to fulfill the provisions, purposes and intent of this Agreement. The parties covenant that they shall participate in the arbitration in good faith and that they shall share in its costs in accordance with this Agreement. The provisions of this Section 8.5(c) may be enforced by any court of competent jurisdiction, and the party seeking enforcement shall be entitled to an award of all costs, fees and expenses, including attorneys’ fees, to be paid by the party against whom enforcement is ordered. Judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having competent jurisdiction.

(d) Payment of Costs. Purchaser, on the one hand, and Sellers, on the other hand, shall each bear one-half of the expense of deposits and advances required by the arbitrator, but any party may advance such amounts, subject to recovery as an addition or offset to any award. For the avoidance of doubt, the monetary recovery owed to the prevailing party or parties to the arbitration proceeding shall include reimbursement of such advances.

(e) Burden of Proof. Except as may be otherwise expressly provided herein, for any Contested Claim submitted to arbitration, the burden of proof shall be as it would be if the claim were litigated in a judicial proceeding governed exclusively by the internal Laws of the State of Delaware applicable to contracts executed and entered into within the State of Delaware, without regard to the principles of choice of law or conflicts of law of any jurisdiction.

(f) Award. Upon the conclusion of any arbitration proceedings hereunder, the arbitrator shall render findings of fact and conclusions of law and a final written arbitration award setting forth the basis and reasons for any decision reached (the “Final Award”) and shall deliver such documents to Sellers and Purchaser, together with a signed copy of the Final Award. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the Final Award shall constitute a conclusive determination of

all issues in question, binding upon Sellers and Purchaser, and shall include an affirmative statement to such effect.

(g) Timing. Sellers, Purchaser and the arbitrator shall conclude each arbitration pursuant to this Section 8.5 as promptly as possible for the Contested Claim being arbitrated.

(h) Terms of Arbitration. The arbitrator chosen in accordance with these provisions shall not have the power to alter, amend or otherwise affect the terms of these arbitration provisions or the provisions of this Agreement.

(i) Exclusive Remedy. Following the Closing, except as specifically otherwise provided in this Agreement, arbitration conducted in accordance with this Agreement shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the parties for any Contested Claim made pursuant to this Article VIII; provided that this sentence shall not be deemed a waiver by any party of its right to seek specific performance or injunctive relief in the case of another party’s failure to comply with the covenants made by such other party.

SECTION 8.6. Survival of Covenants, Representations and Warranties.

All representations and warranties of Sellers contained in this Agreement, as qualified by the Schedules hereto as updated from time to time in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, shall remain operative and in full force and effect until that date that is the earlier of (i) the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Article IX, and (ii) the Survival Date; provided, however, that if the Closing occurs and a claim or proceeding with respect to breach of any such representation or warranty has been instituted prior to the Survival Date, such representation or warranty shall survive for purposes of such claim until there has been a final determination with respect to such claim or proceeding. All representations and warranties of Purchaser set forth in this Agreement shall remain operative and in full force and effect until that date that is the earlier of (i) the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Article IX and (ii) the Survival Date; provided, however, that if the Closing occurs and a claim or proceeding with respect to breach of any such representation or warranty has been instituted prior to the Survival Date, such representation or warranty shall survive for purposes of such claim until there has been a final determination with respect to such claim or proceeding. All covenants of the parties shall survive according to their respective terms.

SECTION 8.7. Exclusive Remedy; Non-Recourse.

(a) After the Closing, the indemnification rights set forth in this Article VIII are and shall be the sole and exclusive remedies of Purchaser, the other Seller-Indemnified Persons, Sellers and the other Purchaser-Indemnified Persons with respect to this Agreement and the Transactions contemplated hereby.

(b) Purchaser, for itself, its successors and assigns including the other Seller-Indemnified Persons, acknowledges and agrees that this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby are non-recourse as to any Seller or any other Purchaser-Indemnified Person and that they shall have no recourse against any Seller or any other

48

Purchaser-Indemnified Person for or on account of any matter, cause, claim or thing of or relating to this Agreement or the Transactions, other than as expressly provided in this Article VIII.

(c) In furtherance of the foregoing, Purchaser for itself, its successors and assigns, and the other Seller-Indemnified Persons, covenant and agree that neither Purchaser nor any other Seller-Indemnified Person shall xxx or initiate or maintain any action, suit or cause of action against any Seller or any other Purchaser-Indemnified Person as a result of this Agreement or the Transactions, except as expressly provided hereunder.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 8.7 shall not be deemed a waiver by any party of its right to seek specific performance or injunctive relief in the case of another party’s failure to comply with the covenants made by such other party to be performed after the Closing, or any remedy of any party in respect of any fraud committed by any other party. In addition, the parties agree that the limitations set forth in this Article VIII shall not apply to any fraud or willful breach of any covenant committed by any party.

(e) The provisions of Article VIII were specifically bargained for and reflected in the amounts payable to Sellers in connection with the Transactions pursuant to Section 1.3.

ARTICLE IX

(c) by Sellers if (i) Purchaser shall have breached, or failed to comply with, in any material respect any of its obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any representation or warranty made by Purchaser shall have been incorrect in any material respect when made or shall have since ceased to be true and correct in any material respect, and such breach, failure or misrepresentation is not cured within twenty (20) days after written notice thereof is delivered to the breaching party and either (x) such breaches, failures or misrepresentations render the closing conditions of the non-breaching party incapable of being satisfied or (y) such breach or failure is a failure or refusal to consummate the Transactions as required pursuant to Section 1.2

(provided that, in the case of any action or inaction described in this clause (y), the 20-day period described in clause (ii) above shall instead be a two (2) Business Day period);

(d) by Sellers or Purchaser if any decree, permanent injunction, judgment, order or other action by any court of competent jurisdiction or any Governmental Entity preventing or prohibiting consummation of the Transactions shall have become final and nonappealable; provided that no party may terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 9.1(d) unless such party has used commercially reasonable efforts to oppose any such decree, permanent injunction, judgment, order or other action or to have any of the foregoing vacated or made inapplicable to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and has complied with its obligations under Section 6.3;

(e) by Sellers or Purchaser if the Transactions shall not have been consummated on or before July 14, 2008 (the “Termination Date”); provided that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 9.1(e) shall not be available to any party if such party’s failure to fulfill any obligation under this Agreement has been the cause of, or resulted in, the failure of the Closing to occur on or before the Termination Date; or

(f) by Sellers or Purchaser, as provided in Section 6.8.

A party seeking to terminate this Agreement in accordance with this Section 9.1 shall deliver written notice thereof as provided under Section 10.1.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Sellers will only be liable for its willful breach of any covenant or fraud.

(c) If the Agreement is terminated as provided in Section 9.1, the parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause, to the extent practicable, all filings, applications and other submissions made pursuant to this Agreement to be withdrawn from the agency or other Person to which they were made.

SECTION 10.2. Certain Definitions.

For purposes of this Agreement, the term:

(a) “Acquisition Proposal” means any offer, proposal or indication of interest relating to (i) the acquisition of any or all of the Companies by, (ii) a merger, consolidation or other business combination involving any or all of the Companies with, or (iii) any sale of securities or substantial assets of the Companies, or any or all of the Options, to, any Person other than Purchaser or an Affiliate or assignee thereof.

(b) “Affiliate” means a Person that directly or indirectly, through one or more intermediaries, Controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with, the first mentioned Person.

(c) “Antitrust Laws” means any applicable U.S. or foreign competition, antitrust, merger control or investment Laws, including the HSR Act.

(d) “Bank Facility” means that certain Amended and Restated Loan Agreement among the Partnership, the financial institutions whose names appear as Lenders on the signature pages thereof and CIT Lending Services Corporation (Illinois), as Agent for the Lenders, dated as of June 5, 2006, as the same may be amended from time to time.

(e) “Business Day” shall mean any day other than a day on which banks in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts or the State of New York are authorized or obligated to be closed.

(f) “Closing Cash” means the amount of cash and cash equivalents of the Companies, determined on a consolidated basis as of the Adjustment Time (but without giving effect to any action by Purchaser or any of its Affiliates, including the Companies, after the Closing) in accordance with Section 1.5(e).

(g) “Closing Indebtedness” means, without duplication, and subject to Section 1.5(e): (i) all liabilities of the Companies for Taxes arising prior to the Closing Date, (ii) all indebtedness of the Companies for borrowed money (including all principal, interest, premiums, penalties, and breakage fees), excluding amounts payable in respect of the Bank Facility, which shall be paid in full at Closing pursuant to Section 7.2(g), (iii) all obligations of the Companies evidenced by notes, bonds, debentures or similar instruments or pursuant to any guaranty, and (iv) all monetary obligations of the Companies under capital leases or for deferred purchase price of property or services (it being agreed by the parties that, for purposes of this Agreement, no Lease will be deemed to be a capital lease), in each case exclusive of deferred revenue, deferred rent obligations and the portion(s) of any of the foregoing included in determining the current liabilities that are reflected in the Closing Working Capital, determined as of the Adjustment Time in accordance with Section 1.5(e). Notwithstanding the foregoing Closing Indebtedness shall not include any liability in respect of any amount alleged in the High Point Litigation to be payable by any Company, whether or not a Final Judgment (as defined in Section 10.2(h) below) exists in respect thereof.

(h) “Closing Working Capital” means the aggregate amount of the current assets of Companies (excluding Closing Cash and excluding deferred tax benefits) less the aggregate amount of the current liabilities of the Companies (exclusive of deferred rent obligations, deferred tax liabilities and all amounts payable in respect of the Bank Facility), in each case determined as of the Adjustment Time after giving effect to the Transactions (but without giving effect to any action by Purchaser or any of its Affiliates, including the Companies, after the Closing) and in accordance with Section 1.5(e) ; provided that, if Purchaser has the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 6.8 prior to the Closing and does not do so, then the aggregate amount of Limited 6.8 Liabilities that will be included as current liabilities for purposes of computing of the Closing Working Capital shall not be greater than the sum of (x) the amount (if any) by which the Closing Working Capital (determined without taking into account any Limited 6.8 Liabilities) exceeds negative $8,500,000 plus (y) the amount (if any) by which $12,000,000 exceeds the aggregate amount (if any) of Damages with respect to Limited-Indemnity Items for which the Seller-Indemnified Persons have been indemnified pursuant to Section 8.1 prior to the date upon which the Final Purchase Price is determined.
