ARTICLE VII
CERTAIN COVENANTS AND AGREEMENTS

Section 7.1. Access and Information. Buyer shall (a) use its reasonable best efforts to properly retain and maintain the Tax and accounting records of the Company that relate to Pre-Closing Periods or Straddle Periods for a period of six (6) years after Closing, to the extent that such records are in the Company’s possession as of Closing.

Section 7.2. Tax Matters.

(a) Company Tax Returns. The Seller shall prepare or cause to be prepared, and timely file or cause to be timely filed, at the Seller’s expense, all Tax Returns of the Company for all taxable periods ending on or prior to the Closing Date for which returns are pending (such Tax Returns, the “Pre-Closing Period Tax Returns”) and for all taxable periods which begin on or before and end after the Closing Date (“Straddle Periods”) (such Tax Returns, “Straddle Period Tax Returns”). Except as otherwise required by applicable Law, the Seller shall prepare for the Company and file such Pre-Closing Period Tax Returns and the Straddle Period Tax Returns in a manner consistent with the prior practices of the Company. The Seller, on behalf of the Company, shall timely pay all Taxes due as reflected on such Pre-Closing Period Tax Returns and Straddle Period Tax Returns.

(b) Apportionment of Straddle Period Taxes. For purposes of this Agreement, in the case of any Straddle Period, the amount of any Taxes based on or measured by income, gross or net sales, payments or receipts, or payroll of the Company for the Pre-Closing Period shall be determined based on an interim closing of the books as of the close of business on the Closing Date and the amount of other Taxes of the Company for a Straddle Period that relates to the Pre-Closing Period shall be deemed to be the amount of such Tax for the entire taxable period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the taxable period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in such Straddle Period.

(c) Post-Closing Actions. Without the prior written consent of Seller, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed, the Company shall not, with respect to the Company: (i) amend, refile or otherwise modify any Tax Return relating in whole or in part to a Pre-Closing Period or Straddle Period, (ii) extend or waive any statute of limitations or other period for the assessment of any Tax that relates to a Pre-Closing Period or Straddle Period, (iii) apply to any Governmental Entity for any binding or non-binding opinion, ruling, or other determination, or voluntarily initiate any discussion or make any voluntary disclosure with any Governmental Entity, with respect to the Company in relation to any act, matter, or transaction that occurred on or before the Closing Date or that relates to any Pre-Closing Period or Straddle Period, (iv) report any Tax deduction related to the Indebtedness or any compensatory amounts or transaction expenses that are paid or accrued on or before the Closing Date on any Tax Return of the Company, Buyer, or their respective Affiliates for any taxable period or portion of a Straddle Period beginning after the Closing Date, (v) make or change any Tax election of the Company for a Pre-Closing Period or Straddle Period, or (vi) take any action or enter into any transaction with respect to the Company that would result in any increased liability for Taxes of Seller or the Company with respect to any Pre-Closing Period or Straddle Period.

(d) Cooperation. Seller and ▇▇▇▇▇ shall cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other party, in connection with the preparation and filing of Tax Returns pursuant to this Section 7.2 and any proposed assessment or the commencement of any Tax audit or administrative or judicial proceeding or of any demand or claim that relates to the Taxes of the Company (a “Tax Proceeding”). Such cooperation shall include signing any Tax Returns, amended Tax Returns, claims or other documents necessary to settle any Tax Proceeding, execution of powers of attorney, the retention and (upon the other party’s request) the provision of records and information which are reasonably relevant to any such Tax Proceeding or other proceeding and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereby.

(e) Tax Proceedings. If the Company receives notice of any Tax Proceeding for a Pre-Closing Period or a Straddle Period which (depending upon its resolution) could affect the liability for Taxes of Seller, Buyer shall (i) promptly inform Seller of such notice, and (ii) allow Seller to manage, control and defend (at its sole expense) such audit or inquiry; provided, however, that if any such Tax Proceeding could have an adverse and material effect on the Company for any taxable period beginning on or after the day after the Closing Date, Seller may not settle such matter without the consent of Buyer, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(f) Transfer Taxes. Any sales, use, stock transfer, stamp, value added or similar transfer Tax (“Transfer Taxes”) payable in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be borne by Buyer. The Buyer shall duly and timely prepare and file any Tax Return relating to such Taxes. Buyer shall give Seller a copy of each such Tax Return for Seller’s review and comments at least fifteen (15) Business Days prior to the due date for filing and shall give Seller a copy of such Tax Return as filed, together with proof of payment of the Taxes shown thereon to be payable, within five (5) days after filing such Tax Return.

(g) Tax Refunds. The amount or economic benefit of any refunds, credits or offsets of Taxes of the Company for any Pre-Closing Period (such amounts of refunds, credits, or offsets of Taxes referred to herein as “Refunds,” “Credits,” and “Offsets”) shall be for the account of Seller. The amount or economic benefit of any Refund, Credit, or Offset of the Company for any Straddle Period shall be equitably apportioned between Seller and Buyer in accordance with the principles set forth in Section 7.2(b). Buyer shall promptly pay or cause to be paid to Seller,f pro rata, any such Refund and the dollar value of any such Credit or Offset promptly after the applicable Refund is received or applicable Credit or Offset is actually applied to reduce the Tax liability of the Company or Buyer.

Section 7.3. Public Announcements. Seller acknowledge that Buyer may be required by Law to make a public announcement relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, and any such public announcement made by Buyer shall not be a default under this Agreement or any Transaction Document.

Section 7.4. Employees; Employee Benefits.

(a) Buyer shall give each Business Employee full credit for purposes of eligibility, vesting, and determination of benefits (including, for purposes of vacation and severance) under the benefit plans maintained by Buyer or its Affiliates for such Business Employees’ service with the Company to the same extent recognized by the Company immediately prior to the Closing; provided, however, that such service shall not be recognized to the extent that such recognition would result in a duplication of benefits with respect to the same period of service.

(b) The provisions contained in this Section 7.4 are included for the sole benefit of the parties hereto and nothing in this Section 7.4, whether express or implied, shall (i) create any third-party beneficiary or other rights in any other Person, including any current or former employees, any participant in any Benefit Plan, or any dependent or beneficiary thereof, (ii) be construed as an amendment, waiver or creation of or limitation on the ability to terminate any Benefit Plans or benefit plans or agreements of Buyer or (iii) limit the ability of Buyer or the Company to terminate the employment of any Business Employee at any time.

Section 7.5. Additional Efforts. Following the Closing, as and when requested by any party hereto and at such requesting party’s expense, any other party shall execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, all such documents and instruments and shall take, or cause to be taken, all such further actions as the requesting party may reasonably deem necessary or desirable to evidence and effectuate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including without limitation, post-closing cooperation by the parties regarding the Federal Communications Commission’s 499 filings associated with periods prior to closing.

ARTICLE VIII
INDEMNIFICATION

Section 8.1. Survival. Subject to the limitations and other provisions of this Agreement, the representations and warranties contained herein shall survive the Closing and shall remain in full force and effect until the date that is twelve (12) months from the Closing Date. Each covenant and agreement shall survive the Closing for the period contemplated by its terms. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any claims asserted in good faith with reasonable specificity (to the extent known at such time) and in writing by notice from the non-breaching party to the breaching party prior to the expiration date of the applicable survival period shall not thereafter be barred by the expiration of such survival period and such claims shall survive until finally resolved.

Section 8.2. Indemnification By Seller. Subject to the other terms and conditions of this Article VIII, Seller shall indemnify Buyer against, and shall hold Buyer harmless from and against, any and all Losses incurred or sustained by, or imposed upon, Buyer based upon, arising out of, with respect to or by reason of:

(a) any inaccuracy in or breach of any of the representations or warranties of Seller contained in this Agreement; or

(b) any breach or non-fulfillment of any covenant, agreement, or obligation to be performed by Seller pursuant to this Agreement.

Section 8.3. Indemnification By Buyer. Subject to the other terms and conditions of this Article VIII, ▇▇▇▇▇ shall indemnify Seller against, and shall hold Seller harmless from and against, any and all Losses incurred or sustained by, or imposed upon, Seller based upon, arising out of, with respect to or by reason of:

(a) any inaccuracy in or breach of any of the representations or warranties of Buyer contained in this Agreement; or

(b) any breach or non-fulfillment of any covenant, agreement, or obligation to be performed by Buyer pursuant to this Agreement.

Section 8.4. Certain Limitations. The party making a claim under this Article VIII is referred to as the "Indemnified Party", and the party against whom such claims are asserted under this Article VIII is referred to as the "Indemnifying Party". The indemnification provided for in Section 8.2 and Section 8.3 shall be subject to the following limitations:

(a) The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to the Indemnified Party for indemnification under Section 8.2(a) or Section 8.3(a), as the case may be, until the aggregate amount of all Losses in respect of indemnification under Section 8.2(a) or Section 8.3(a) exceeds $20,000.00 (the "Deductible"), in which event the Indemnifying Party shall only be required to pay or be liable for Losses in excess of the Deductible.

(b) The aggregate amount of all Losses for which an Indemnifying Party shall be liable pursuant to Section 8.2(a) or Section 8.3(a) as the case may be, shall not exceed $75,000.00. The aggregate amount of all Losses for which an Indemnifying Party shall be liable pursuant to Section 8.2(b) or 8.3(b) as the case may be, shall not exceed the Purchase Price.

(c) Payments by an Indemnifying Party pursuant to Section 8.2(a) or Section 8.3(a) in respect of any Loss shall be limited to the amount of any liability or damage that remains after deducting therefrom any insurance proceeds and any indemnity, contribution or other similar payment received or reasonably expected to be received by the Indemnified Party (or the Company) in respect of any such claim. The Indemnified Party shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to recover under insurance policies or indemnity, contribution, or other similar agreements for any Losses prior to seeking indemnification under this Agreement.

(d) Payments by an Indemnifying Party pursuant to Section 8.2 and Section 8.3 in respect of any Loss shall be reduced by an amount equal to any Tax benefit actually realized as a result of such Loss by the Indemnified Party.

(e) In no event shall any Indemnifying Party be liable to any Indemnified Party for any punitive, incidental, consequential, special, 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.

(f) Each 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.

(g) Seller shall not be liable under this Article VIII for any Losses based upon or arising out of any inaccuracy in or breach of any of the representations or warranties of Seller contained in this Agreement if Buyer had knowledge of such inaccuracy or breach prior to the Closing.

Section 8.5. Indemnification Procedures.

(a) Third-Party Claims. If any Indemnified Party receives notice of the assertion or commencement of any action, suit, claim or other legal proceeding made or brought by any Person who is not a party to this Agreement or an Affiliate of a party to this Agreement or a Representative of the foregoing (a "Third-Party Claim") against such Indemnified Party with respect to which the Indemnifying Party is obligated to provide indemnification under this Agreement, the Indemnified Party shall give the Indemnifying Party prompt written notice thereof. The failure to give such prompt written notice shall not, however, relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations, except and only to the extent that the Indemnifying Party forfeits rights or defenses by reason of such failure. Such notice by the Indemnified Party shall describe the Third-Party Claim in reasonable detail, shall include copies of all material written evidence thereof and shall indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the Loss that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to participate in, or by giving written notice to the Indemnified Party, to assume the defense of any Third-Party Claim at the Indemnifying Party's expense and by the Indemnifying Party's own counsel, and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate in good faith in such defense. In the event that the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any Third-Party Claim, subject to Section 8.5(b), it shall have the right to take such action as it deems necessary to avoid, dispute, defend, appeal or make counterclaims pertaining to any such Third-Party Claim in the name and on behalf of the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party shall have the right, at its own cost and expense, to participate in the defense of any Third-Party Claim with counsel selected by it subject to the Indemnifying Party's right to control the defense thereof. If the Indemnifying Party elects not to compromise or defend such Third-Party Claim or fails to promptly notify the Indemnified Party in writing of its election to defend as provided in this Agreement, the Indemnified Party may, subject to Section 8.5(b), pay, compromise, defend such Third-Party Claim and seek indemnification for any and all Losses based upon, arising from or relating to such Third-Party Claim. Seller and Buyer shall cooperate with each other in all reasonable respects in connection with the defense of any Third-Party Claim, including making available (subject to the provisions of Section 9.13) records relating to such Third-Party Claim and furnishing, without expense (other than reimbursement of actual out-of-pocket expenses) to the defending party, management employees of the non-defending party as may be reasonably necessary for the preparation of the defense of such Third-Party Claim.

(b) Settlement of Third-Party Claims. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Indemnifying Party shall not enter into settlement of any Third-Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), except as provided in this Section 8.5(b). If a firm offer is made to settle a Third-Party Claim without a financial obligation on the part of the Indemnified Party and provides, in customary form, for the unconditional release of each Indemnified Party from all liabilities and obligations in connection with such Third-Party Claim and the Indemnifying Party desires to accept and agree to such offer, the Indemnifying Party shall give written notice to that effect to the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnified Party fails to consent to such firm offer within ten (10) days after its receipt of such notice, the Indemnified Party may continue to contest or defend such Third-Party Claim and, in such event, the maximum liability of the Indemnifying Party as to such Third-Party Claim shall not exceed the amount of such settlement offer. If the Indemnified Party fails to consent to such firm offer and also fails to assume defense of such Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party may settle the Third-Party Claim upon the terms set forth in such firm offer to settle such Third-Party Claim. If the Indemnified Party has assumed the defense pursuant to Section 8.5(a), it shall not agree to any settlement without the written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

(c) Direct Claims. Any claim by an Indemnified Party on account of a Loss which does not result from a Third-Party Claim (a "Direct Claim") shall be asserted by the Indemnified Party giving the Indemnifying Party prompt written notice thereof. The failure to give such prompt written notice shall not, however, relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations, except and only to the extent that the Indemnifying Party forfeits rights or defenses by reason of such failure. Such notice by the Indemnified Party shall describe the Direct Claim in reasonable detail, shall include copies of all material written evidence thereof and shall indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the Loss that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall have thirty (30) days after its receipt of such notice to respond in writing to such Direct Claim. During such thirty (30) day period, the Indemnified Party shall allow the Indemnifying Party and its Representatives to investigate the matter or circumstance alleged to give rise to the Direct Claim, and whether and to what extent any amount is payable in respect of the Direct Claim and the Indemnified Party shall assist the Indemnifying Party's investigation by giving such information and assistance (including access to the Company’s premises and personnel and the right to examine and copy any accounts, documents or records) as the Indemnifying Party or any of its professional advisors may reasonably request. If the Indemnifying Party does not so respond within such thirty (30) day period, the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have rejected such claim, in which case the Indemnified Party shall be free to pursue such remedies as may be available to the Indemnified Party on the terms and subject to the provisions of this Agreement.

Section 8.6. Tax Treatment of Indemnification Payments. All indemnification payments made under this Agreement shall be treated by the parties as an adjustment to the Aggregate Consideration for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by Law.

Section 8.7. Exclusive Remedies. Subject to Section 9.15, the parties acknowledge and agree that their sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any and all claims (other than Fraud on the part of a party hereto in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement, shall be pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article VIII. In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted under Law, any and all rights, claims and causes of action for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement it may have against the other parties hereto and their Affiliates and each of their respective Representatives arising under or based upon any Law, except pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article VIII. Nothing in this Section 8.7 shall limit any Person's right to seek and obtain any equitable relief to which any Person shall be entitled pursuant to Section 9.15 or to seek any remedy on account of Fraud by any party hereto.

Section 9.4. Waiver. Any agreement on the part of any party hereto to any extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed on behalf of such party.
