14.5 Procedure for Indemnification. The procedure for indemnification shall be as follows:

(a) The party claiming indemnification (the “Claimant”) shall within thirty (30) days of discovery of the facts or circumstances giving rise to such claim give notice to the party from which indemnification is claimed (the “Indemnifying Party”) of any claim, whether between the parties or brought by a third party, specifying in reasonable detail the factual basis for the claim. If the claim relates to an action, suit, or proceeding filed by a third party against Claimant, such notice shall be given by Claimant to the Indemnifying Party within twenty (20) days after written notice of such action, suit, or proceeding was given to Claimant. The failure by Claimant to give such notice timely shall not affect the rights of the Claimant hereunder except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party demonstrates that the defense of such action is prejudiced thereby. Claimant shall make available to the Indemnifying Party all information and documents that the Indemnifying Party shall reasonably request and the Indemnifying Party and Claimant shall cooperate fully in such defense subject to subsection (c) of this Section.

(b) With respect to claims solely between the parties, the Indemnifying Party shall have twenty (20) days following receipt of notice from the Claimant of a claim to make such investigation of the claim as the Indemnifying Party deems necessary or desirable. For the purposes of such investigation, the Claimant agrees to make available to the Indemnifying Party or its authorized representatives the information relied upon by the Claimant to substantiate the claim and any other information reasonably requested by the Indemnifying Party. If the Claimant and the Indemnifying Party agree at or prior to the expiration of the twenty (20) day period (or any mutually agreed upon extension thereof) to the validity and amount of all or any portion of such claim, within five (5) Business Days the Indemnifying Party shall immediately pay to the Claimant the full amount of such agreed amount of the claim by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated by Claimant. If the Claimant and the Indemnifying Party do not agree within the twenty (20) day period (or any mutually agreed upon extension thereof), the Claimant may seek appropriate remedy at law.

(c) With respect to any claim by a third party as to which the Claimant is entitled to indemnification under this Agreement, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right at its own expense to participate in or assume control of the defense of such claim (with counsel of its choice reasonably satisfactory to the Claimant) if, within twenty days after notice from the Claimant of any such claim for losses, the Indemnifying Party provides to the Claimant notice

thereof, and the Claimant shall cooperate fully with the Indemnifying Party, including making available all information, documents and assistance that Indemnifying Party may reasonably request, subject to reimbursement for actual out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Claimant as the result of a request by the Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnifying Party elects to assume control of the defense of any third-party claim in accordance with the preceding sentence, the Claimant shall have the right to participate in the defense of such claim at its own expense, but the Indemnifying Party shall control such defense. If the Indemnifying Party shall elect not to undertake such defense in accordance with this Section 14.5(c), or, within a reasonable time after providing such notice to Claimant, shall fail to defend such claim, the Claimant shall have the right to undertake the defense, compromise or settlement of such claim, by counsel or other representatives of its own choosing, on behalf of and for the account and risk of the Indemnifying Party, and the Indemnifying Party shall pay to the Claimant, in addition to the other sums required to be paid hereunder, any reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Claimant in connection with such defense, compromise or settlement as and when such costs and expenses are so incurred. Anything in this Section 14.5(c) to the contrary notwithstanding, with respect to any third party claim, (i) the Indemnifying Party shall not, without the Claimant’s written consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), settle or compromise any such claim or consent to entry of any judgment which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the third party claimant or the plaintiff to the Claimant of a release from all liability in respect of such losses in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Claimant, (ii) in the event that the Indemnifying Party undertakes defense of any such claim, the Indemnifying Party shall have an obligation to keep the Claimant informed of the status of the defense of such claim and furnish the Claimant with all documents, instruments and information that the Claimant shall reasonably request in connection therewith, and (iii) neither party shall dispose of, compromise or settle any claim or action in a manner that is not reasonable under the circumstances and in good faith.

(d) If a claim, whether between the parties or by a third party, requires immediate action, the parties will make every reasonable effort to reach a decision with respect thereto as expeditiously as possible.

14.6 Limitations on Indemnification; Exclusive Remedy.

(a) No party hereunder shall be required to indemnify any other party under this Article XIV (x) until the aggregate amount of such other party’s Losses (excluding any legal fees incurred by such party in connection with such Losses) exceed (i) in the case of Losses of the LLC Swap Parties or the BB Swap Parties, $2,500,000, and then only to the extent that such Losses exceed $2,500,000, and (ii) in the case of Mediacom, $1,250,000, and then only to the extent that such Losses exceed $1,250,000, and (y) (i) in the case of Losses of the LLC Swap Parties or the BB Swap Parties, to the extent that such Losses exceed $50,000,000, and (ii) in the case of Losses of Mediacom, to the extent that such Losses exceed $25,000,000.

(b) After the Closing Date, the sole and exclusive remedy of any party with respect to this Agreement, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the BB Systems and the BB Assets, and the LLC Systems and the LLC Assets, whether in contract, in tort or otherwise, shall be a claim for indemnification under this Article XIV.

(c) The amount of any claim under this Article XIV shall be reduced by the amount of any insurance proceeds actually received by the claimant in respect of such claim and by the tax benefit, if any, to the claimant in respect of such claims.
