(a) Purchaser and the Seller shall consult with each other before issuing any press release or making any other public statement with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby and shall not issue any such press release or make any such other public statement without the consent of the other party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed, except as such release or statement may be required by Law or any listing agreement with or rule of any national securities exchange, in which case the party required to make the release or statement shall consult with the other party about, and allow the other party reasonable time (to the extent permitted by the circumstances) to comment on, such release or statement in advance of such issuance, and the party will consider such comments in good faith.

4.9 Injunctive Relief. Seller acknowledges that any breach or threatened breach of the provisions of this ARTICLE 4 may cause irreparable injury to the Purchaser for which an adequate monetary remedy does not exist. Accordingly, in the event of any such breach or threatened breach, the Purchaser shall be entitled, in addition to the exercise of other remedies, to seek and (subject to court approval) obtain injunctive and other equitable relief, without necessity of posting a bond, restraining the Seller from committing such breach or threatened breach. The right provided under this Section shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other rights and remedies available to the Purchaser.

Seller shall execute and deliver such additional documents and instruments and take such other actions as the Purchaser shall reasonably request to give effect to the provisions of this Section.

4.12 Misdirected Payments. If payment on any account receivable or other right to payment or prepayment or refund included in the Acquired Assets is received by Seller after Closing, Seller will immediately turn the same over to the Purchaser in the form received and hold the same in trust until delivered to Purchaser. Seller hereby authorizes and grants to the Purchaser (or its designee) a power of attorney effective from and after the Closing to execute and deliver all agreements, documents and instruments (including to endorse Seller’s name on any checks) and/or and to take all other actions on behalf of Seller (a) to collect for the Purchaser’s account any checks or other payments received by Seller in payment or satisfaction of any accounts receivable or other right to payment or prepayment included in the Acquired Assets, and any refunds of deposits, prepaid expenses and similar amounts included in the Acquired Assets, and (b) to withdraw from any bank accounts of Seller any such payment, prepayment or refund that is deposited therein after Closing so that such payment, prepayment or refund is turned over to the Purchaser. The foregoing appointment and powers of attorney, each being coupled with an interest, shall not be revoked by the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or other termination of the existence of Seller.

4.13 Post-Closing Action. In the event that subsequent to the Closing Seller receives written notice of the commencement by any Governmental Entity (including without limitation the FCC) against Seller of any investigation, litigation, arbitration or other action or proceeding relating to any of the Acquired Assets (including without limitation any FCC Licenses) (a “Post-Closing Action”), then Seller shall give written notice thereof, together with a statement of any available information regarding such Post-Closing Action, to the Purchaser within (30) thirty days after receipt of such notice. If the Purchaser determines in its sole discretion that such Post-Closing Action could have an adverse effect on the Purchaser or its assets or operations, then the Purchaser such shall have the right in its sole discretion to conduct the defense of, and to settle, any such Post-Closing Action, and be fully indemnified therefor subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement; provided, however, Purchaser agrees to consult with Seller prior any settlement on any Post-Closing Action and Purchaser has no authority to admit any wrong-doing or liability on Seller’s behalf. The parties will cooperate fully with each other in connection with the defense of any such Post-Closing Action. It is acknowledged and agreed that nothing in this Section 4.13 shall limit the rights and remedies of the Purchaser Indemnified Parties under ARTICLE 6.

4.14 AWI Spectrum License Purchase Agreement. Concurrently with the Closing, Purchaser will acquire the AWI Spectrum License pursuant to that certain Purchase Agreement, dated December 22, 2021, by and between American Wireless, Inc. and Purchaser, as amended, for a purchase price equal to the AWI Spectrum Purchase Price. Such purchase price shall be funded by the members of the Purchaser pro rata in accordance with their ownership percentages in Purchaser, with Seller’s share of such purchase price equal to the AWI Spectrum Purchase Share to be deducted from the Estimated Closing Purchase Price as set forth in Section 1.5(c)(ii)B) above.

6.1 Survival. Subject to the limitations and other provisions of this Agreement, the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement shall survive the Closing and shall remain in full force and effect until the date that is twelve (12) months from the Closing Date. No claim for a breach of the representations and warranties contained herein shall be brought more than one year after the Closing Date, except for claims for a breach of the Fundamental Representations which may be brought any time prior to the later of (i) one year after the Closing Date and (ii) the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations for the subject matter of such Fundamental Representation. For clarity, and for illustration purposes only, if the statute of limitations for a claim for unpaid Taxes is 6 years, then claims for a breach of the representations and warranties in Section 2.21 (Tax Matters) may be brought prior to the six-year anniversary of the Closing. If the Purchaser notifies the Seller Representative in writing of any claim for breach of any representation or warranty prior to the expiration date of such representation or warranty as set forth in the prior sentence, such representation or warranty shall continue in full and force and effect until the claim has been resolved.

6.2 Indemnification Limits. If the Closing occurs, the rights of the Purchaser Indemnified Parties under Section 6.3 shall be subject to the following limitations:

(a) The Seller shall not be liable to the Purchaser Indemnified Parties for indemnification claims under Section 6.3(a) or Section 6.3(b) until the aggregate amount of all Losses in respect of indemnification claims under Section 6.3 exceeds $60,000, at which time the Purchaser Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to recover for aggregate Losses pursuant to Section 6.3 from the first dollar;

(b) The Seller shall not be liable to the Purchaser Indemnified Parties for an aggregate amount of Losses pursuant to Section 6.3(a) (excluding indemnification claims for breach of Fundamental Representations and claims for fraud or intentional misrepresentation) in excess of $600,000;

(c) The Seller shall not be liable to the Purchaser Indemnified Parties for an aggregate amount of Losses pursuant to Section 6.3(a) for breach of Fundamental Representations, fraud or intentional misrepresentation in excess of the Closing Purchase Price, provided that claims for fraud or intentional misrepresentation shall not be subject to the limit in this clause (c) and shall not be included in the determination of whether the limit in this clause (c) has been reached;

(d) For purposes of determining the amount of any Losses subject to indemnification under this ARTICLE 6, the amount of such Losses will be determined net of (i) any insurance proceeds and any indemnity, contribution or other similar payment actually received by the Purchaser Indemnified Parties in respect of any such claim (net of any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in collecting such amounts) and (ii) the amount equal to any net Tax benefit arising from the incurrence or payment of any indemnifiable Losses by the Purchaser Indemnified Parties, to the extent such Tax benefit is realized and recognized in respect of the taxable period of such Loss or any prior taxable period.

(e) Each Purchaser Indemnified Party shall take, and cause its Affiliates to take, all reasonable steps to mitigate any Loss upon becoming aware of any event or circumstance that would be reasonably expected to, or does, give rise thereto, including incurring costs only to the minimum extent necessary to remedy the breach that gives rise to such Loss.

For all purposes of this ARTICLE 6, when determining whether a representation or warranty of Seller has been breached or is inaccurate and the amount of the Losses, any material adverse effect or other materiality qualifier contained in any such representation or warranty will be disregarded.

6.3 Indemnification by the Seller. The Seller shall indemnify and hold the Purchaser and its Affiliates (collectively, the “Purchaser Indemnified Parties”) harmless from and against, and compensate and reimburse the Purchaser Indemnified Parties for, all claims, liabilities, obligations, costs, damages, losses and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs of investigation) of any nature, whether or not arising from a third party claim, (collectively, “Losses”), to the extent arising out of, resulting from or relating to:

(a) any inaccuracy in or breach of (or any third party claim alleging facts that, if true, would be a breach of) the representations or warranties of the Seller set forth in this Agreement (including the schedules) or any inaccuracy in any statement set forth in any certificate delivered by or on behalf of the Seller at Closing pursuant to this Agreement;

(b) any breach or violation of any of the covenants of the Seller set forth in this Agreement or in any agreement or document delivered at Closing by the Seller pursuant to this Agreement other than the Purchaser LLC Agreement;

(d) the matters set forth on Schedule 6.3(d); or

(e) any violation of any bulk sales laws as a result of the consummation of the Transactions.

6.4 Indemnification by the Purchaser. The Purchaser shall indemnify and hold the Seller and its Affiliates (collectively, the “Seller Indemnified Parties”) harmless from and against, and compensate and reimburse the Seller Indemnified Parties for, all Losses arising out of or relating to any inaccuracy in or breach or violation of the representations, warranties, or covenants of the Purchaser set forth in this Agreement or with respect to any of the Assumed Liabilities that are not paid or performed by the Purchaser after Closing when due.

6.5 Indemnification Procedures. Whenever any claim shall arise for indemnification hereunder, the party entitled to indemnification (the “Indemnified Party”) shall promptly provide written notice of such claim to the other party (the “Indemnifying Party”); provided, however, that the failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall relieve the Indemnifying Party from liability under this Agreement with respect to such claim only if, and only to the extent that, such failure to notify the Indemnifying Party materially prejudices the Indemnifying Party. In connection with any claim giving rise to indemnity hereunder resulting from or arising out of any claim, action, demand, or proceeding brought by a Person who is not an Indemnified Party (a “Third Party Claim”), the Indemnifying Party, at its sole cost and expense and upon written notice to the Indemnified Party, may assume the defense of any such Third Party Claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense of any such Action, with its counsel and at its own cost and expense. If the Indemnifying Party does not assume the defense of any such Action, the Indemnified Party may, but shall not be obligated to, defend against such Action in such manner as it may deem appropriate, including settling such Action, after giving notice of it to the Indemnifying Party, on such terms as the Indemnified Party may deem appropriate and no action taken by the Indemnified Party in accordance with such defense and settlement shall relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations herein provided with respect to any damages resulting therefrom. The Indemnifying Party shall not settle any Action without the Indemnified Party’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Purchaser shall have the right in its sole discretion to conduct the defense of, and to settle, any Third Party Claim for which it may seek indemnification and be fully indemnified therefor subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

6.6 Payment.

(a) Once the amount of any Losses is agreed to by the Seller or finally adjudicated to be payable pursuant to this Article 6, any indemnification claims by the Purchaser Indemnified Parties against the Seller pursuant to Section 6.3 (excluding indemnification claims for breach of Fundamental Representations and claims for fraud or intentional misrepresentation) shall be satisfied, in the following order: (i) first, by a cash payment to the Purchaser Indemnified Parties utilizing the Indemnification Escrow Fund, (ii) second, only to the extent that such claims exceed the amount available for disbursement out of the Indemnification Escrow Fund, by a cash payment from the Seller, and (iii) third, by the forfeiture to the Purchaser (or, at the Purchaser’s election, to any one or more Affiliates of BOC) of a number of Rollover Units equal to (x) the aggregate amount of Losses to be satisfied pursuant to this clause (iii) divided by (y) the Value per Rollover Unit, or (iv) by a combination of the foregoing clauses (i), (ii), and (iii).

(b) Any indemnification claims by the Seller Indemnified Parties against the Purchaser pursuant to Section 6.4 shall be satisfied by a cash payment to the Seller Indemnified Parties.

6.7 Right of Set-Off. To the extent provided in the second sentence of Section 6.6, if the Seller has not satisfied any indemnification obligation that is owed by them hereunder, the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates may, at their discretion, to the extent permitted by applicable law set-off against any amounts due and owing from the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates to Seller an amount equal to such unpaid indemnification obligation.

6.8 Other Provisions.

(a) The Seller shall not make any claim against the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates for contribution, reimbursement or indemnification from the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates with respect to any liability of Seller to the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates arising under or in connection with this Agreement, and Seller hereby waives any such right that Seller has or may have in the future against the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates for such contribution, reimbursement or indemnification with respect to any liability of Seller to the Purchaser or any of its Affiliates arising under or in connection with this Agreement

(b) In no event shall any Indemnifying Party be liable to any Indemnified Party for any punitive, incidental, consequential, exemplary or indirect damages, including loss of future revenue or income, loss of business reputation or opportunity relating to the breach or alleged breach of this Agreement, or diminution of value or any damages based on any type of multiple, except (i) to the extent such losses are reasonably foreseeable consequence of the breach and can be proven with reasonable certainty; or (ii) to the extent actually awarded to a Government Entity or other third party unaffiliated with the Indemnified Party.

6.9 Exclusive Remedies for Breaches of Representations and Warranties. If the Closing occurs, the remedies provided in this ARTICLE 6 shall be the exclusive remedies of the Purchaser Indemnified Parties for claims for breach of (or any third party claim alleging facts that, if true, would be a breach of) the representations or warranties in ARTICLE 2 of this Agreement (including the schedules) or any inaccuracy in any statement set forth in any certificate delivered by or on behalf of Seller at Closing pursuant to this Agreement (all of such claims, “Breach of Rep Claims”), except in the case of (i) fraud or intentional misrepresentation, and (ii) actions for specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies, provided that this sentence shall not be deemed to limit in any respect the remedies of the Purchaser Indemnified Parties for events, circumstances or facts that constitute the basis for both (x) a Breach of Rep Claim and (y) any claim other than a Breach of Rep Claim. By way of example, if there is an Environmental Liability of the Seller at Closing that constitutes an Excluded Liability and also constitutes a breach of the environmental representation and warranty and is therefore the basis for a Breach of Rep Claim, the remedies in this ARTICLE 6 are the exclusive remedies for such Breach of Rep Claim but are not the exclusive remedies for any other claim based on such Environmental Liability, including a claim for Seller’s failure to satisfy such Environmental Liability.

6.10 Adjustment to Purchase Price. All indemnification payments paid pursuant to this Article shall be adjustments to the purchase price for Tax purposes and shall be treated as such by Purchaser and Seller on their respective Tax Returns to the extent permitted by law.
