Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, there shall be no adjustment for, and Sellers shall remain solely liable with respect to, any Contracts not included in the Assumed Contracts and any other obligation or liability that is an Excluded Liability.

(iii) Within forty-five (45) Business Days following the Closing Date, Buyer shall prepare and deliver to Sellers a final statement of income and expense (the “Final Closing Proration Statement”), indicating the prorations as set forth above and any monies due to Sellers or Buyer to the extent the Final Closing Proration Statement differs from the Preliminary Closing Proration Statement, together with copies of all work papers, schedules, and supporting documentation reasonably sufficient to allow Seller to verify the prorations prepared by Buyer. Within twenty (20) Business Days of receipt of the Final Closing Proration Statement, Seller shall either accept the prorations and payment schedule set forth in the Final Closing Proration Statement or notify Buyer of its disagreement therewith (a “Notice of Disagreement”). If Seller fails either to accept the prorations and payment schedule set forth in the Final Closing Proration Statement or to give Buyer a Notice of Disagreement within twenty (20) Business Days of receipt of the Final Closing Proration Statement, then Seller shall be deemed to have accepted such prorations and payment schedule. The Notice of Disagreement shall state the amount of money Sellers believes is due to or from Sellers pursuant to the prorations set forth herein (“Sellers’ Amount”), and Buyer shall have ten (10) Business Days to accept or reject Sellers’ Amount. If Buyer rejects Sellers’ Amount, any amount payable to Seller or Buyer pursuant to the Final Closing Proration Statement not in dispute shall be immediately paid and the remaining amount in dispute shall be submitted to an independent certified accountant selected jointly by the parties for resolution of the dispute, such resolution to be final and binding upon the parties. The fees of such independent accountant shall be split evenly between Buyer and Sellers. Each Seller shall be responsible for any fees and expenses of its respective independent auditors and attorneys incurred in connection with the Final Closing Proration Statement. The Buyer shall be responsible for any fees and expenses of its independent auditors and attorneys incurred in connection with the Final Closing Proration Statement.

Buyer and Sellers shall cooperate fully with such independent accountant and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such accountant to render a decision resolving the matters in dispute within fifteen (15) Business Days following submission of such materials to the accountant. All
10
10
amounts owed pursuant to this Section 2.6(b) shall be paid within five (5) Business Days of acceptance, failure to object or, if there is a dispute, resolution of the amount due. If such amount is not paid within such five (5) Business Day period, interest on such amount shall accrue until paid at 10% per annum.

13
13
there are no facts which under the Communications Laws, would disqualify such Seller as an assignor of the Purchased Licenses of such Seller.

None of the Purchased Licenses will be adversely affected by the consummation of the transaction contemplated hereby. Except as disclosed in Schedule 3.4(c), Sellers are not aware of any basis for any application, action, petition, objection or other pleading, or for any proceeding with the FCC or any other Governmental Authority, which (i) questions or contests the validity of, or seeks the revocation, forfeiture, non-renewal or suspension of, any Purchased License, (ii) seeks the imposition of any modification or amendment with respect to any Purchased License, (iii) seeks the payment of a fine, sanction, penalty, damages or contribution in connection with the use of any Purchased License, or (iv) in any other way will or could reasonably be expected to adversely affect any Purchased License.

(a) by mutual written consent of Buyer and Sellers;
(b) by written notice from Buyer (so long as Buyer is not in breach of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement) to the Sellers, if any Seller breaches in any material respect any of Sellers’ representations or warranties or defaults in any material respect in the performance of any of their covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement which breach or failure to perform would cause the failure of any condition set forth in Section 8.1, and such breach or default is not cured within the Cure Period (defined below);
(c) by written notice from Sellers (so long as no Seller is in breach of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement) to Buyer, if Buyer breaches in any material respect any of its representations or warranties or defaults in any material respect in the performance of any of its covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement which breach or failure to perform would cause the failure of any condition set forth in Section 8.2, and such breach or default is not cured within the Cure Period;
(d) by either Buyer or Sellers upon written notice to the other party if the consummation of the transaction contemplated hereby shall be prohibited by a final, non-appealable order, decree or injunction of a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 10.1(d) shall not apply to any party whose action or inaction in fulfilling a material obligation under this Agreement shall have been a cause for the failure of the Closing to occur pursuant to this Section 10.1(d); and
(e) by Buyer in accordance with Section 7.2(c).
The term “Cure Period” as used herein means a period commencing the date Buyer or Sellers receives from the other written notice of breach or default hereunder and continuing until the earlier of (i) fifteen (15) calendar days thereafter or (ii) the Closing Date.
10.2. Specific Performance. In the event of a breach or threatened breach by Sellers of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement under this Agreement, at Buyer’s election, in
30
30
addition to any other remedy available to it, Buyer shall be entitled to an injunction restraining any such breach or threatened breach and to enforcement of this Agreement by a decree of specific performance requiring Sellers to fulfill their obligations under this Agreement, in each case without the necessity of showing economic loss or other actual damage and without any bond or other security being required.
10.3. Allocation of Deposit in the Event of Termination. Solely in the event that all of the conditions set forth in Section 8.1 and Section 8.2 have been satisfied or otherwise waived in writing, except that, the Buyer has failed to satisfy the condition set forth in Section 8.2(d) as a result of Buyer’s failure to satisfy the delivery obligations set forth in Section 9.3(a), Section 9.3(b) or Section 9.3(c) on the date that otherwise would be the Closing Date and the Sellers stood ready, willing and able to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the Deposit shall be paid to Sellers (or Sellers’ designee) pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement, and such payment shall constitute liquidated damages.

Except in the case of fraud with scienter, in no event shall any party be liable for punitive damages. A termination of this Agreement shall not terminate the confidentiality rights and obligations of the parties set forth in Section 7.3.

(a) A party entitled to be indemnified pursuant to Section 11.2 or Section 11.4 (the “Indemnified Party”) shall promptly notify the party liable for such indemnification (the “Indemnifying Party”) in writing of any claim or demand that the Indemnified Party has determined has given or could give rise to a right of indemnification under this Agreement; provided, that a failure to give prompt notice or to include any specified information in any notice will not affect
33
33
the rights or obligations of a party hereunder except and only to the extent that, as a result of such failure, any party that was entitled to receive such notice was damaged as a result of such failure. Subject to the Indemnifying Party’s right to defend in good faith third party claims as hereinafter provided, the Indemnifying Party shall satisfy its obligations under this Section 11 within thirty (30) days after the receipt of written notice thereof from the Indemnified Party.
(b) If the Indemnified Party shall notify the Indemnifying Party of any claim pursuant to Section 11.6(a), the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to employ counsel of its choosing to defend any such claim asserted by any third party against the Indemnified Party for so long as the Indemnifying Party shall continue in good faith to diligently defend against such claim. The Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate in the defense of any such claim at its own expense. The Indemnifying Party shall notify the Indemnified Party in writing, as promptly as possible (but in any case at least five (5) Business Days before the due date for the answer or response to a claim) after the date of the notice of claim given by the Indemnified Party to the Indemnifying Party under Section 11.6(a) of its election to defend in good faith any such third party claim. So long as the Indemnifying Party is defending in good faith any such claim asserted by a third party against the Indemnified Party, the Indemnified Party shall not settle or compromise such claim without the written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, and the Indemnified Party shall make available to the Indemnifying Party or its agents all records and other material in the Indemnified Party’s possession reasonably required by it for its use in contesting any third party claim. The Indemnifying Party shall not, without the Indemnified Party's written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld), settle or compromise any claim or consent to any entry of any judgment which settlement, compromise or judgment (i) by its terms does not obligate the Indemnifying Party (or its Affiliates) to pay the full amount of any Losses in connection with such claim, (ii) requires any payment or other action by, or limitation on, any Indemnified Party or contains any covenants or undertakings binding on the Indemnified Party other than customary agreements to keep the terms of such settlement, compromise or judgment confidential or (iii) does not include the giving by the claimant to the Indemnified Party of a full release from all liability in respect of such claim. Regardless of whether the Indemnifying Party elects to defend any such claim, the Indemnified Party shall have no obligation to do so. In the event (i) the Indemnifying Party elects not to defend such claim or (ii) the Indemnifying Party elects to defend such claim but fails to diligently defend such claim in good faith, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to conduct the defense thereof and to settle or compromise such claim or action without the consent of the Indemnifying Party, except that with respect to the settlement or compromise of such a claim, the Indemnified Party shall not settle or compromise any such claim without the consent of the Indemnifying Party (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld), unless the Indemnifying Party is given a full and complete release of any and all liability by all relevant parties relating thereto and has no obligation to pay any damages.
11.8. Net Losses; Subrogation; Mitigation.
(a) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the amount of any Losses incurred or suffered by an Indemnified Party shall be calculated after giving effect to (i) any insurance proceeds received by the Indemnified Party (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such Losses and (ii) any recoveries obtained by the Indemnified Party (or any of its Affiliates)
34
34
from any other third party, in each case, net of the costs and expenses incurred in obtaining such proceeds and recoveries. Each Indemnified Party shall exercise commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such proceeds, benefits and recoveries (collectively, “Proceeds”). If any such Proceeds are received by an Indemnified Party (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to any Losses after an Indemnifying Party has made a payment to the Indemnified Party with respect thereto, the Indemnified Party (or such Affiliate) shall pay to the Indemnifying Party the amount of such Proceeds (up to the amount of the Indemnifying Party’s payment). With respect to any Losses incurred or suffered by an Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party shall have no liability for any Losses to the extent that the same Losses have already been recovered by the Indemnified Party from the Indemnifying Party (because the Indemnified Party may only recover once in respect of the same Loss).
(b) Upon making any payment to an Indemnified Party in respect of any Losses, the Indemnifying Party shall, to the extent of such payment, be subrogated to all rights of the Indemnified Party (and its Affiliates) against any third party in respect of the Losses to which such payment relates. Such Indemnified Party (and its Affiliates) and Indemnifying Party shall execute upon request all instruments reasonably necessary to evidence or further perfect such subrogation rights.
(c) The Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate any Losses, whether by asserting claims against a third party or by otherwise qualifying for a benefit that would reduce or eliminate an indemnified matter; provided, that no party shall be required to use such efforts if they would be detrimental in any material respect to such party.
11.9. Computation of Indemnifiable Losses. Any calculation of Losses for purposes of this Section 11 shall be (a) reduced to take account of any net tax benefit actually realized by the Indemnified Party arising from the deductibility of any such Loss in the year such Loss is incurred; and (b) increased to take account of any net tax liability actually realized by the Indemnified Party arising from the receipt or accrual of any indemnity obligation hereunder; provided that the mitigation provisions hereof shall not require a party to take any action with respect to any tax filing or claim, even if such filing or claim would likely result in a net tax benefit. To the extent permitted by applicable Law, all indemnity payments made pursuant to this Agreement shall be treated by the parties hereto as an adjustment to the Purchase Price.
11.10. Exclusive Remedies. In the event the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are consummated, the indemnification provisions of this Section 11 shall be the sole and exclusive remedies of Buyer and Sellers for any breach of the representations or warranties or nonperformance of any covenants and agreements of Buyer or Sellers contained in this Agreement or any Related Agreement, and no party shall have any liability to any other party under any circumstances for special, indirect, consequential, punitive or exemplary damages or lost profits, diminution in value or any damages based on any type of multiple of earnings of any Indemnified Party; provided, that nothing contained in this Agreement shall relieve or limit the liability of a party from any liability or Losses arising out of or resulting from fraud or intentional breach in connection with the transactions contemplated in this Agreement or the Related Agreements
