The parties hereby acknowledge that this Section shall not result in any adjustment to any amounts other than the amount of the Annual Operating Cash

Flow referred to in the immediately preceding sentence and shall be disregarded for purposes of the calculation of Annual Operating Cash Flow for all other purposes.

9. RIGHTS AND REMEDIES

9.1 Rights and Remedies of the Lender.

(iv) Pursue any other rights and remedies available to the Lender at law or in equity.

9.2 Cumulative Nature of Remedies. Nothing herein shall limit the right of the Lender, subject to notice and right to cure provisions contained herein, to pursue all rights and remedies available to a creditor following the occurrence of an Event of Default subject to compliance, if required, with the rules and regulations of the FCC and any state public service or utilities commission having jurisdiction. Each right, power and remedy of the Lender in this Agreement and/or the Other Agreements shall be cumulative and concurrent, and recourse to one or more rights or remedies shall not constitute a waiver of any other right, power or remedy.

9.3 Costs and Expenses. The Borrowers shall promptly reimburse the Lender upon request for any reasonable and documented costs and out-of-pocket expenses paid or incurred by the Lender (including, without limitation, reasonable and documented fees and expenses of outside attorneys, limited, in the case of any such costs and expenses reimbursed under clauses (d) and (e) of this Section 9.03, to one outside counsel) for all actions the Lender takes to (a) enforce the payment of any Obligation, to effect collection of any of the Collateral, or in preparation for such enforcement or collection, (b) institute, maintain, preserve, enforce and foreclose on the Lender’s security interest in or Lien on any of the Collateral, whether through judicial proceedings or otherwise, (c) restructure any of the Obligations, (d) review, approve or grant any consents or waivers hereunder, and (e) prepare, negotiate, execute, deliver, review, amend or modify the Loan Documents, or any other agreements, documents and instruments deemed necessary or appropriate by the Lender in connection with any of

9.4Late Payment Charges. If payment of any principal and/or interest due under the terms of the Note is not received at the office of the Lender in Dulles, Virginia, or as the Lender may otherwise designate to the Borrowers, within such time period as the Lender may prescribe from time to time in its policies in connection with any late payment charges (such unpaid amount of principal and/or interest being herein called the "delinquent amount" and the period beginning after such due date until payment of the delinquent amount being herein called the "late-payment period"), the Borrowers will pay to the Lender, in addition to all other amounts due under the terms of the Loan Documents, any late-payment charge as may be fixed by the Lender from time to time, on the delinquent amount for the late-payment period.

9.5Lender's Setoff. The Lender shall have the right, in addition to all other rights and remedies available to it, to setoff and to recover against any or all of the Obligations due to the Lender, any monies now and hereafter owing to any Credit Party by the Lender. The Credit Parties waive all rights of setoff, deduction, recoupment and counterclaim.

10.MISCELLANEOUS

10.1Performance for the Borrowers. Each Borrower agrees and hereby authorizes that the Lender may during the existence of an Event of Default, in its sole discretion, but the Lender shall not be obligated to, advance funds on behalf of such Borrower without prior notice to such Borrower, in order to insure each Loan Party’s compliance with any material covenant, warranty, representation or agreement of each Loan Party made in or pursuant to this Agreement or any of the Other Agreements, to preserve or protect any right or interest of the Lender in the Collateral or under or pursuant to this Agreement or any of the Other Agreements, including without limitation, the payment of any insurance premiums or taxes and the satisfaction or discharge of any judgment or any Lien upon the Collateral or other property or assets of the Loan Parties; provided, however, that the making of any such advance by the Lender shall not constitute a waiver by the Lender of any Event of Default with respect to which such advance is made nor relieve the Borrowers of any such Event of Default. The Borrowers shall pay to the Lender upon demand all such advances made by the Lender with interest thereon at the Default Rate. All such advances shall be deemed to be included in the Obligations and secured by the security interest granted the Lender under the Collateral Documents to the extent permitted by law.

10.2[Reserved].

10.3Waivers by Loan Parties. Each Loan Party hereby waives, to the extent the same may be waived under applicable law: (a) in the event the Lender seeks to repossess any or all of the Collateral by judicial proceedings, any bond(s) or demand(s) for possession which otherwise may be necessary or required; (b) presentment, demand for payment, protest and notice of non-payment and all exemptions; and (c) substitution, impairment, exchange or release of any collateral security for any of the Obligations.

Each Loan Party agrees that the Lender may exercise any or all of its rights and/or remedies hereunder and under the Other Agreements without resorting to and without regard to security or sources of liability with respect to any of the Obligations.

10.4Waivers by the Lender. Neither any failure nor any delay on the part of the Lender in exercising any right, power or remedy hereunder or under any of the Other Agreements shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall a single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy.

10.5Lender's Records. Every statement of account or reconciliation rendered by the Lender to the Borrowers with respect to any of the Obligations shall be presumed conclusively to be correct and shall constitute an account stated between the Lender and the Borrowers unless, within ten (10) Business Days after such statement or reconciliation shall have been mailed, postage prepaid, to the Borrowers, the Lender shall receive written notice of specific objection thereto.

10.6Modifications.

The Lender agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its Related Parties (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential); (b) to the extent required or requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over such Person or its Related Parties (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners); (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process; (d) to any other party hereto; (e) in

connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder; (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to any assignee of or participant in, or any prospective assignee or participant in, any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement; (g) on a confidential basis to (i) any rating agency and (ii) its auditors; (g) with the consent of any Borrower; or (h) to the extent such Information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 10.18, or (y) becomes available to the Lender or any of its Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than any Credit Party. For purposes of this Section 10.18, “Information” means all information received from any Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries relating to any Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by any Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries; provided that, in the case of information received from any Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section 10.18 shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information. “Related Parties” means with respect to any Person, such Person’s Affiliates and the partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, counsel and advisors of such Person and of such Person’s Affiliates.
