Collateral Agent must deliver the remaining balance, if any, to NET Companies on the date such proceeds are received as contemplated herein. The process of disposal of the Pledged Quotas shall comply with the following:
(a) the amount of the Pledged Quotas shall be calculated by appraisers, which may not be a Creditor and/or the Collateral Agent, nor a company controlling, controlled by or affiliated to a Creditor and/or the Collateral Agent, and which shall necessarily be a reputable and independent consulting firm or a first class investment bank that, in both cases, have acted as financial advisers in merger and acquisition transactions whose total sales prices in the last 3 (three) years have been equal to or higher than R$100,000,000.00 (one hundred million reais), with proven performance and knowledge of the Brazilian cable television or telecommunications market.

Appraisers;
(d) the criterion for appraisal of the Pledged Shares and Quotas to be used by the Appraisers will be, if the respective company is listed at a stock exchange, the market value, and if not, the economic value criterion. The appraisal reports to be prepared by the Appraisers shall be delivered to Net Serviços and to the Collateral Agent within 30 (thirty) consecutive days, and the delivery period may be extended at the request of any Appraiser, upon the Parties’ consent.
(e) the economic value of all the Quotas Pledged by each of the NET Companies under this Agreement and the market value or the economic value, as applicable, of all the Share Pledged by the NET Companies under the Share Pledge Agreement with an Amicable Sale Clause and Other Covenants, shall be necessarily indicated in the appraisal reports, so that all of them can be appraised together as if they were an indivisible whole, for purposes of joint sale of all the Pledged Shares and Quotas. In addition, the individualized economic value of the respective Pledged Quotas of each of the NET Companies shall be necessarily indicated in the appraisal reports, to enable the subsequent segregated sale of such Pledged Quotas, if and when applicable, always with due regard for the provisions of this Agreement. In the event the report indicates a price variation range, the appraisal value established in such report will be considered as the arithmetic mean between the maximum value and the minimum value suggested in such report, and such arithmetic mean shall be used as the value of the respective report for purposes of application of the provisions of item (f) below;
(f) if the difference in value between both the reports is lower than 10% (ten percent), the minimum sale price for the Pledged Shares and Quotas will be the arithmetic mean of the two amounts. If the difference between the reports is higher than 10% (ten percent), calculated by dividing the highest value by the lowest one, a third Appraiser shall be chosen by Net Serviços within 10 (ten) business days counted from the date of delivery of the reports referred to in item (d) above out of a list of 3 (three) Appraisers appointed by
the Collateral Agent. The third Appraiser thus chosen shall define within 30 (thirty) consecutive days, the minimum sale price for the Pledged Shares and Quotas, taking into consideration for such purpose the criterion for appraisal of the market value or economic value, as applicable, of the Pledged Shares and Quotas. The minimum price for the sale of the Pledged Shares and Quotas will be the arithmetic mean between the price defined by the third Appraiser and the price closest to it among the prices defined by each of the other Appraisers. The third Appraiser shall receive from the Collateral Agent and/or Net Services a copy of both reports prepared by the other Appraisers. If Net Services does not choose the third Appraiser within 10 (ten) business days from the date of submission of the triple list, the Collateral Agent shall make such choice;
(g) the minimum price attributed to the Pledged Shares and Quotas by each Appraiser, according to item (f) above, both when considered as an indivisible whole and when the Pledged Quotas are considered individually, except for manifest error, will be final and conclusive, and binding on the Parties for all purposes;
(h) Net Serviços shall bear the costs and expenses reasonably incurred with engagement of Appraisers and with structuring of the process of sale of Pledged Shares and Quotas, provided that they are duly evidenced and justified;
(i) Net Serviços, NET Companies and the Intervening Party(ies) shall assure that each Appraiser has always the same level of information with respect to the Intervening Party(ies), their businesses and the Pledged Shares and Quotas;
(j) The Collateral Agent will have 270 (two hundred and seventy) consecutive days as from determination of the minimum price to dispose of the Pledged Shares and Quotas, according to the terms of this Clause, to contract the joint disposal of all the Pledged Shares and Quotas, as if they were an indivisible whole, under this Agreement and the Share Pledge Agreement with an Amicable Clause and Other Covenants, based on the minimum price calculated as contemplated in this Clause IV; partial sale is hereby
prohibited;
(k) if the contracting of the joint disposal does not take place within the period contemplated in section “j” above, then the Collateral Agent, based on the minimum price calculated individually as contemplated in Clause IV for the Pledged Quotas held by each of the NET Companies, according to section “e” above, will have 270 (two hundred and seventy) consecutive days as from the end of the term for joint disposal of the Pledged Shares and Quotas to contract the individual sale of all the Pledged Quotas issued by a single Intervening Party; however, the duty to jointly dispose of all the Pledged Quotas representing the corporate capital of the NET Companies in a single and certain Intervening Party, shall continue to exist as if they were an indivisible whole. The Pledged Quotas of as many Intervening Parties as may be necessary to make full payment for the Secured Obligations may be sold. If even then the contracting of the disposal does not occur within the period established herein, Net Serviços may request that the appraisal procedure established in this Clause 4.2 be repeated and the procedure reinitiated successively;
(l) the disposal of the Pledged Shares and Quotas in any of the ways contemplated in sections “j” and “k” above shall preferably be made through a bidding or similar procedure, but the sale price shall never be lower than the minimum price established as expounded above;
(m) the minimum price shall be an amount in Brazilian currency or in United States dollars. If the price is in Brazilian currency, the minimum price will be adjusted according to the variation in the General Price Index – Internal Availability (IGP-DI), calculated and disclosed by the Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx Foundation (FGV), or an index that may replace it as of the date of its determination, which shall apply from the date the minimum price is set for the disposal of the Pledged Shares and Quotas up to the date of actual payment thereof;
(n) unless otherwise agreed between Net Serviços and Creditors, these represented by the Collateral Agent, the sale price of the Pledged Shares and Quotas shall, in any event, be paid at sight at the time of transfer of the Pledged Shares and Quotas; and
(o) for all purposes of this Agreement and of Article 684 of the Civil Code, the Parties acknowledge that the Collateral Agent may perform all the acts necessary for the proper and effective development of the entire amicable sale procedures described in this Clause IV, it being certain, however, that the Collateral Agent shall fully respect all the procedures, requirements and stages stipulated in this Clause IV.

4.6. - Without prejudice to collection of any debt balance relating to the Secured Obligations, once the provisions of this Clause IV have been executed, the corresponding Secured Obligations shall be automatically released with respect to the sums attained through the amicable sale procedure stipulated above, regardless of any formality, to which the Collateral Agent automatically agrees on behalf of the Creditors and on its own behalf, irrevocably and irreversibly; the Collateral Agent and Creditors not being allowed to make any claim against NET Companies with respect to amounts obtained by said amicable sale.
4.7. - Although the Creditors hold legal preemptive rights with respect to the Pledged Quotas mentioned herein, the Creditors, through the Collateral Agent that represents them herein, hereby expressly declare and irrevocably and irreversibly agree, under the penalties of the law, for the entire duration hereof, that they may only perform any acts that entail or may entail attachment, judicial seizure or any other type of constriction of the Pledged Quotas solely and exclusively through the Collateral Agent, subject to the provisions in the Intercreditor Agreement and this Agreement.
4.8. - If any of the Creditors and/or the Collateral Agent fails to observe the provisions of Clause 4.7, Net Serviços or any of NET Companies shall notify the Collateral Agent and such Creditor(s) to the effect that they undo the act, which they are required to abstain from as a result of Clause 4.7 above within 10 (ten) consecutive days from such notice, and
they shall answer for the losses and damages caused to Net Serviços and/or NET Companies and/or the other Creditors and/or the Collateral Agent, as the case may be. If the default is not remedied within such period, (i) if the default is imposed on one or more Creditors, the Creditor(s) that have caused such default will cease immediately from being a party hereto, and their rights arising from their respective Debt Instrument(s) will no longer be part of the Secured Obligations, and they will thus no longer benefit from this Pledge. In the events contemplated above, said default shall in no way affect the legal and contractual rights and prerogatives now granted to the other Creditors and/or the Collateral Agent.
4.9. - Without prejudice to other events of early maturity of the Secured Obligations contemplated in the Debt Instruments or in the Intercreditor Agreement, the Collateral Agent and any of the Creditors are expressly forbidden to determine the early maturity of the Secured Obligations based on Articles 333, II and III, 1425, I, IV and V of the Civil Code. The Collateral Agent may, subject to the provisions of the Debt Instruments, the Intercreditor Agreement and this Agreement, especially Clauses 1.4 and 1.4.1. above and Clause 10.5 below, determine the early maturity of the Secured Obligations if any of the events below occurs: (i) if the obligations set out in Clause 1.3 above are not complied with; (ii) if the obligations contemplated in sections “a”, “b”, “c” and “d” of Clause 2.4 above are not complied with; or (iii) if the obligations contemplated in Clauses 10.2 and 10.2.1 below are not complied with.
4.10. - The Parties acknowledge that Creditors shall have the option, always through the Collateral Agent, to demand compliance with the Pledge now made with any other warranty granted to Creditors, including the Additional Pledge Agreements, at the sole discretion of Creditors, according to this Agreement and the Intercreditor Agreement.
