(iv)	On the Funding Date, Purchaser shall pay to Sellers the Funding Date Payment (net of the amount previously paid as the Good Faith Deposit) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account specified by Sellers in writing.

(v)

(vi)

Purchaser shall be entitled to withhold from any amount payable pursuant to this Agreement, such amounts as Purchaser is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under any provision of applicable federal, state, local or foreign Tax law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld and paid over to the appropriate Tax Authority by Purchaser, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to Sellers. To the extent Purchaser believes a withholding tax will apply, Purchaser shall give Seller notice thereof and shall work with Seller in good faith in an effort to mitigate such withholding.

(c) Allocation of Purchase Price. Within sixty (60) days of the Closing Date, Purchaser shall prepare and deliver to Sellers a statement allocating the sum of the Purchase Price, the Assumed Liabilities and other relevant items among the Acquired Assets in accordance with Section 1060 of the Code and the Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder and the Income Tax Act and upon reasonable consultation with Sellers, and with Sellers’ consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed (such statement, the “Allocation Statement”). The parties shall follow the Allocation Statement for purposes of filing IRS Form 8594 and all other Tax Returns, and shall not voluntarily take any position inconsistent therewith. If the IRS or any other taxation authority proposes a different allocation, Sellers or Purchaser, as the case may be, shall promptly notify the other party of such proposed allocation. Sellers or Purchaser, as the case may be, shall provide the other party with such information and shall take such actions (including executing documents and powers of attorney in connection with such proceedings) as may be reasonably requested by such other party to carry out the purposes of this section. Except as otherwise required by Applicable Law or pursuant to a “determination” under Section 1313(a) of the Code (or any comparable provision of United States state, local, or non-United States law), (i) the transactions contemplated by Article II of this Agreement shall be reported for all Tax purposes in a manner consistent with the terms of this Section 2.5(c); and (ii) neither party (nor any of their Affiliates) will take any position inconsistent with this Section 2.5(c) in any Tax Return, in any refund claim, in any litigation or otherwise. Notwithstanding the allocation of the Purchase Price set forth in the Allocation Statement, nothing in the foregoing shall be determinative of values ascribed to the Acquired Assets or the allocation of the value of the Acquired Assets in any plan or reorganization or liquidation that may be proposed and the Sellers reserve the right on their behalf and on behalf of the Sellers’ estates, to the extent not prohibited by Applicable Law and accounting rules, for purposes of any plan of reorganization or liquidation, to ascribe values to the Acquired Assets and to allocate the value of the Acquired Assets to different Sellers in the event of, or in order to resolve, inter-estate creditor disputes in the Bankruptcy Cases.

Section 2.6 Sale Free and Clear

. Sellers acknowledge and agree and the Sale Order shall provide that, on the Funding Date and concurrently with the Funding, all then existing or thereafter arising Seller Liabilities, Claims, Interests and Liens (other than those in favor of Purchaser created under this Agreement and/or any Ancillary Agreement, the Assumed Permitted Liens, if any, and Assumed Liabilities) of, against or created by any of Sellers or their bankruptcy estates, to the fullest extent permitted by Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code, shall be fully released from and with respect to the Acquired Assets and thereupon shall attach to the Purchase Price with the same force, effect, validity, enforceability, and priority as such Seller Liabilities, Claims, Interests and Liens had attached to the Acquired Assets as of the Funding Date. Following receipt of the Specified Regulatory Approvals, on the Closing Date in accordance with Section 3.1(c)(i) of this Agreement, the Acquired Assets shall be Transferred to Purchaser and/or one or more of its Affiliates or Subsidiaries, as applicable, to the fullest extent permitted by Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code, free and clear of all Seller Liabilities, Claims, Interests, Liens, and rights of first refusal or offer, other than the Assumed Permitted Liens, if any, and the Assumed Liabilities or, in the event of an Alternative Sale to a Third Party purchaser under Section 3.5 of this Agreement, the Acquired Assets shall be Transferred to such Third Party purchaser and/or one or more of its Affiliates or Subsidiaries, as applicable, free and clear to the fullest extent permitted by Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code, to the same extent as contemplated under this Agreement had the Acquired Assets been transferred to Purchaser hereunder.

(a) With respect to each Designated Contract, Sellers shall deposit into the Escrow Account, as soon as practicable after the Funding Date, all amounts (the “Cure Amounts”) that (i) are required to be paid under section 365(b)(1)(A) or (b)(1)(B) of the Bankruptcy Code in order to assume and assign such contract, or (ii) are due pursuant to order of the Bankruptcy Court as a condition to assuming and assigning such Designated Contract; provided, however, that Cure Amounts that are the subject of a bona fide dispute shall be paid by Sellers within two (2) Business Days of the effectiveness of a settlement or order of the Bankruptcy Court, as the case may be, with respect thereto. All Cure Amounts deposited into the Escrow Account shall be thereafter held, invested and released by the Escrow Agent only in accordance with this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, the Cure Amounts that are required to be paid with respect to each Designated Contract shall, unless otherwise agreed to by Purchaser, be paid by Sellers on or about the effective date of a plan of reorganization.

(b) If there are any payments under any Designated Customer Contract invoiced and collected during the month ending on the Funding Date for services to be rendered under such Designated Customer Contract after the Funding Date, Sellers shall provide to Purchaser, no later than the third (3rd) Business Day after the Funding Date, a statement setting forth the amounts of such prepayments and the Designated Customer Contracts to which they relate. Sellers shall, concurrently with the delivery of the statement referred to in the preceding sentence, pay over to Purchaser an amount equal to such prepayments.

Section 6.13 Completion of Nonassignable Designated Contracts

. Sellers shall use their reasonable best efforts to obtain any consent, approval or amendment, if any, required to novate and/or assign any Designated Contract to be assigned to Purchaser hereunder which the Bankruptcy Court determines is not able to be assumed and assigned under section 365(c) of the Bankruptcy Code (a “Nonassignable Designated Contract”). Sellers shall keep Purchaser reasonably informed from time to time of the status of the foregoing and Purchaser shall cooperate with Seller in this regard. To the extent that the rights of Sellers under any Nonassignable Designated Contract, or under any other Asset to be assigned to Purchaser hereunder, may not be assigned without the consent of a Third Party which has not been obtained prior to the Closing this Agreement shall not constitute an agreement to assign the same at the Closing, if an attempted assignment would be unlawful. If any such consent has not been obtained or if any attempted assignment would be ineffective or would impair Purchaser’s rights under the instrument in question so that Purchaser would not acquire the benefit of all such rights, then Sellers, to the maximum extent permitted by Applicable Law and the instrument, shall act as Purchaser’s agent in order to obtain for Purchaser the benefits thereunder and shall cooperate, to the maximum extent permitted by Applicable Law and the instrument, with Purchaser in any other reasonable arrangement designed to provide such benefits to Purchaser; provided, however, that nothing contemplated by this Section 6.13 shall reduce the amount of the Purchase Price.

Section 6.14 No Violation

Purchaser will not assume ownership or control (whether de facto or de jure) of the FCC Licenses and Industry Canada Licenses of Sellers hereunder in a manner that violates any Communications Laws of the United States or Canada.

Section 6.15 Insurance; Risk of Loss

Until the Funding Date, Sellers shall bear the risk of any loss or damage to the Acquired Assets from fire, casualty or any other occurrence. Sellers shall maintain insurance coverage substantially similar to Sellers’ policies in effect as of the date hereof for the period from the date hereof until the Closing Date with respect to the Business and the Acquired Assets for events occurring, circumstances existing and Seller Liabilities accruing before the Closing Date. Following the Funding Date, Purchaser shall have the benefit of any unexpired portion of Sellers’ insurance coverage, and Sellers will use commercially reasonable efforts to, on or prior to the Funding Date, cause Purchaser to be named as the insured party or loss payee under all insurance policies maintained by Sellers or Sold Companies relating to the Acquired Assets to the extent unexpired, and in the event any proceeds become payable under such unexpired insurance policies relating to occurrences or events after the Funding Date and are not paid to Purchaser, Sellers shall and shall cause the Sold Companies to hold such proceeds in trust for the benefit of Purchaser, and shall pay over such proceeds without any deduction to Purchaser promptly after receipt thereof. Nothing herein shall require Sellers to maintain insurance coverage in respect of any Acquired Asset after the Closing Date.

Section 6.16 Purchaser Protections

Sellers shall: (a) no later than June 15, 2011, file the Purchaser Protection Motion; and (b) no later than June 24, 2011, obtain entry of the Purchaser Protections Order by the Bankruptcy Court.

Section 6.17 Use of Proceeds of Funding Date Payment

(a) Sellers shall: (i) no later than two (2) Business Days after the Debtors determine, in consultation with the Creditors Committee that the Purchaser is the winning bidder at the auction, file with the Bankruptcy Court a motion, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Purchaser, seeking authority to use the proceeds of the Funding Date Payment to repay in full, on the Funding Date or as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter, all of Sellers’ outstanding secured indebtedness, including, without limitation, Sellers’ outstanding obligations under (A) the DIP Credit Agreement, (B) the Senior Secured Notes, and (C) the Purchase Money Credit Agreement; and (ii) use their reasonable best efforts to obtain, no later than twenty-six (26) Business Days after filing the motion required by subclause (i) of this Section 6.17(a), entry of a Final Order of the Bankruptcy Court granting the Sellers authority to make the payments set forth in subclause (i) of this Section 6.17(a).

(b) Sellers and Purchaser acknowledge and agree that this Section 6.17 is integral to this Agreement.

Section 6.18 Entry into New DIP Agreement

If, within three (3) Business Days after the date of this Agreement (such third Business Day, the “DIP Agreement Amendment Date”), the DIP Credit Agreement has not been amended to provide that upon entry of the Sale Order, additional debtor-in-possession financing shall be made available to Sellers from the date of entry of the Sale Order (or the current maturity date of the DIP Credit Agreement, if earlier) to the Funding Date (the “Amended DIP Credit Agreement”), Parent shall enter into an agreement to provide such debtor-in-possession financing to Sellers as soon as practicable, but in no event more than five (5) Business Days following the DIP Agreement Amendment Date. Purchaser acknowledges that entry into the Amended DIP Credit Agreement is an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and that any breach by Purchaser of this Section 6.18 shall be incapable of being cured.

Section 6.19 Parent Obligations.

(a) Parent agrees to take all action necessary to cause Purchaser to perform all of its agreements, covenants and obligations under this Agreement that arise prior to the Closing Date. Parent unconditionally guarantees to Sellers the full and complete performance by Purchaser of its obligations under this Agreement with respect to payment of the Purchase Price. This is a guarantee of payment and performance and not of collectability. Parent hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of performance, filing of any claim, any right to require any proceeding first against Purchaser, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever in connection with the performance of its obligations set forth in this Section 6.19.

(b) Parent hereby expressly acknowledges and agrees to be bound by the following provisions of this Agreement: Section 5.11 (Qualification to Hold Communications Licenses), Section 6.18 (Entry into New DIP Agreement), Section 6.19 (Parent Obligations), Section 9.3 (Notices), Section 9.4 (Counterparts), Section 9.6 (Severability), Section 9.7 (Governing Law), Section 9.8 (Exclusive Jurisdiction), Section 9.9 (Remedies), Section 9.10 (Specific Performance), Section 9.11 (Purchaser Acknowledgement), the first sentence of Section 9.12 (Successors and Assigns), Section 9.13 (Headings) and Section 9.17 (Interpretation).

(c) Parent shall be entitled to withhold from any amount payable pursuant to this Section 6.19, such amounts as Parent is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under any provision of applicable federal, state, local or foreign Tax law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld and paid over to the appropriate Tax Authority by Parent, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to Sellers.
