In no event shall Buyer be entitled to deliver a Closing Demand Notice on more than one occasion, and any attempted delivery of a second or other subsequent Closing Demand Notice shall be void ab initio. For the avoidance of doubt and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in the event Buyer does not deliver a Closing Demand Notice, it shall have no obligation whatsoever to effect the Closing. For the further avoidance of doubt, a Closing Demand Notice may be delivered by Buyer only if all Closing conditions in favor of the Stockholder set forth in Sections 10.1 and 10.3 are satisfied or capable of satisfaction without waiver by Stockholder on or before any potential Specified Closing Date.

3.3 Payment of Initial Purchase Price at the Closing. At the Closing, Buyer shall cause the Initial Purchase Price (less the amount delivered to the Indemnity Escrow Fund pursuant to Section 12.6) to be delivered to Stockholder by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such accounts as such Stockholder specifies in written instructions to Buyer prior to the Closing.

3.4 Post-Closing Adjustments.

(a) Not less than two (2) business days prior to the scheduled Closing Date, the Company shall deliver to Buyer an estimated Closing Date Balance Sheet. The Closing Date Balance Sheet shall present fairly, on a good faith basis, the estimated financial position of the Network Business as of the Closing Date, subject to the GAAP Exceptions and the Closing Date Balance Sheet Exceptions. Such Closing Date Balance Sheet shall serve as the basis for the estimate of the Net Working Capital as of Closing for purposes of calculating the Initial Purchase Price on the Closing Date.

(b) Within ninety (90) days of the Closing Date, Buyer shall cause to be prepared and delivered to the Stockholder an updated unaudited combined balance sheet of the Network Business as of the Closing Date (the “Post-Closing Balance Sheet”) prepared in a manner consistent with the Balance Sheet, subject to the Closing Date Balance Sheet Exceptions, together with Buyer’s calculation of the Net Working Capital as of the Closing Date.

(c) Stockholder shall have thirty (30) days following the date of delivery by Buyer to Stockholder of the Post-Closing Balance Sheet to provide Buyer with a written certificate confirming that the Net Working Capital as set forth in the Post-Closing Balance Sheet is correct (the “Confirmation Certificate”) or notifying Buyer in writing of any good faith reasonable objections to the calculation of the Net Working Capital as set forth on the Post-Closing Balance Sheet (a “Balance Sheet Dispute Notice”), setting forth a reasonably specific and detailed description of such objections. If a Confirmation Certificate is delivered by Stockholder pursuant to this Section 3.4(c), then the Net Working Capital calculated by Buyer in connection with the preparation of the Post-Closing Balance Sheet shall be deemed to be final and binding on the parties to this Agreement. During the 30-day period immediately following Stockholder’s receipt of the Post-Closing Balance Sheet, Stockholder shall be permitted to review Buyer’s working papers related to the preparation of the Post-Closing Balance Sheet and determination of the Net Working Capital.

(d) If Stockholder shall object to the Post-Closing Balance Sheet or Buyer’s calculation of the Net Working Capital as reflected in the Balance Sheet Dispute Notice, a representative of Buyer, on the one hand, and Stockholder, on the other, shall attempt in good faith to resolve any such objections within ten (10) business days of the receipt by Buyer of the Balance Sheet Dispute Notice.

(e) If Stockholder and Buyer shall be unable to resolve any such dispute within the ten (10) business day period, Stockholder and Buyer (either together or separately) shall be entitled to submit the dispute to a mutually agreed upon independent accounting firm (the “Independent Accountant”) for review and resolution of all matters (but only such matters) which remain in dispute, and the Independent Accountant shall make a final determination of the Net Working Capital to the extent such amount is in dispute, in accordance with the guidelines and procedures set forth in this Agreement. Each of Stockholder, on the one hand, and Buyer, on the other hand, shall, and shall cause their respective Representatives to provide full cooperation to the Independent Accountant. The Independent Accountant shall (i) act in its capacity as an expert and not as an arbitrator, (ii) limit its review to such items and calculations as were addressed in the Balance Sheet Dispute Notice that have not been resolved by the parties and any

factual or mathematical errors contained in the information provided to or by Buyer and (iii) be instructed to reach its conclusions regarding any such dispute within thirty (30) days after its appointment and provide a written explanation of its decision. In resolving any matters in dispute, the Independent Accountant may not assign a value to any item in dispute greater than the greatest value for such item assigned by Buyer, on the one hand, or Stockholder, on the other hand, or less than the smallest value for such item assigned by Buyer, on the one hand, or Stockholder, on the other hand. The Independent Accountant’s determination will be based solely on presentations by Buyer and Stockholder which are in accordance with the guidelines and procedures set forth in this Agreement (i.e., not on the basis of an independent review). The Post-Closing Balance Sheet and the determination of the Net Working Capital shall become final and binding on the parties on the date the Independent Accountant delivers its final resolution in writing to the parties. The fees and expenses of the Independent Accountant shall be paid by the party determined by the Independent Accountant to be the non-prevailing party in connection with the dispute; provided, however, that if the Independent Accountant shall determine in its reasonable discretion that neither party shall be the non-prevailing party, then such fees and expenses shall be borne 50% by Stockholder and 50% by Buyer.

(f) If Stockholder does not deliver a Balance Sheet Dispute Notice in accordance with Section 3.4(c) above (i.e., within the 30-day period specified therein), the Post-Closing Balance Sheet (together with Buyer’s calculation of the Net Working Capital set forth on the Post-Closing Balance Sheet) shall be deemed to have been accepted by all of the parties to this Agreement. In the event that Stockholder delivers a Balance Sheet Dispute Notice in accordance with the provisions above and Stockholder and Buyer are able to resolve such dispute by mutual agreement, the Post-Closing Balance Sheet, together with the calculation of the Net Working Capital, to the extent modified by the mutual agreement of such parties, shall be deemed to have been accepted by all of the parties to this Agreement. In the event that Stockholder delivers a Balance Sheet Dispute Notice in accordance with the provisions set forth above and Stockholder and Buyer are unable to resolve such dispute by mutual agreement, the determination of the Independent Accountant shall be final and binding on the parties, and the Post-Closing Balance Sheet, together with the calculation of the Net Working Capital, to the extent modified by the Independent Accountant, shall be deemed to have been accepted by all of the parties to this Agreement.

(g) In the event that it is determined that the Net Working Capital shall have been overstated in the calculation of the Initial Purchase Price for purposes of the Closing, Stockholder shall deliver to Buyer such overstated amount by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such accounts as Buyer specifies in written instructions to Stockholder within three (3) business days following the final determination of such amounts pursuant to this Section 3.4.

(h) In the event that it is determined that the Net Working Capital shall have been understated in the calculation of the Initial Purchase Price for purposes of the Closing, Buyer shall deliver to Stockholder such understated amount by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such accounts as Stockholder specifies in written instructions to Buyer within three (3) business days following the final determination of such amounts pursuant to this Section 3.4.

3.5 Payment of Additional Purchase Price after the Closing.

(a) After the Closing, Buyer shall pay to Seller up to an additional $45,000,000 when, as and if such amounts become payable as set forth below (the “Additional Purchase Price”). Upon the occurrence of the events (each, an “Event”) set forth in:

(b) Buyer shall give notice to Seller promptly, and in any event within five (5) days after the occurrence of any Event or any events that could reasonably be expected to result in the occurrence of any Event. Within ten (10) days after the occurrence of an Event, Buyer shall cause the applicable portion of the Additional Purchase Price to be delivered to Stockholder by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such accounts as Stockholder specifies in written instructions to Buyer.

(c) Buyer shall use its best efforts to perform the matters identified in Section 3.5(c) of the Disclosure Schedule and Buyer shall not take any action or omit to take any action where such action or omission prevents, interferes with or has an adverse effect on (i) such matters identified in Section 3.5(c) of the Disclosure Schedule or (ii) Buyer’s obligation to pay the Additional Purchase Price pursuant to this Section 3.5.

(d) At reasonable times during normal business hours and upon reasonable notice provided to Buyer, Buyer shall permit Representatives designated by Seller or its affiliates to examine the books and records of the Company or the surviving entity of this Purchase for purposes of allowing Seller to independently assess whether (i) there has been an occurrence of any Event or any events that could reasonably be expected to result in the occurrence of any Event or (ii) Buyer is in compliance with Section 3.5(c) hereof. Seller shall cause such designated Representatives to, except as required by Applicable Law, hold all information acquired during such examination in confidence and use such information only for purposes contemplated by this Section 3.5.

(e) Any dispute, controversy or claim between Buyer and Seller (or any of their respective affiliates) arising out of or relating to this Section 3.5 shall be settled by binding arbitration conducted in Santa Xxxxx County, California in accordance with the then-current arbitration rules of JAMS as modified by the following provisions of this Section 3.5(e):

(iv) The arbitration proceedings and all testimony, filings, documents and information relating to or presented during the arbitration proceedings shall be disclosed exclusively for the purpose of facilitating the arbitration process and for no other purpose.

(v) The award of the arbitrator(s) shall be made in a written opinion containing a concise analysis of the basis upon which the award was made.

(vi) A judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator(s) may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.

(vii) The parties to any arbitration shall share equally the fees and costs of JAMS and the arbitrator(s). The prevailing party or parties shall be entitled to recover from the adverse parties her or its actual reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs incurred in connection with the arbitration and the enforcement thereof; provided, however, that if the arbitrator shall determine in its reasonable discretion that neither party shall be the prevailing party, then such fees and costs shall be borne 50% by Seller and 50% by Buyer.

(viii) Seller or Buyer may apply to a court having jurisdiction to: (A) enforce this agreement to arbitrate; (B) seek provisional injunctive relief so as to maintain the status quo until the arbitration award is rendered or the controversy is otherwise resolved; (C) avoid the expiration of any applicable limitations period; (D) preserve a superior position with respect to other creditors; or (E) challenge or vacate any final judgment, award or decision of the arbitrator(s) that does not comport with the express provisions of Section 3.5(e)(ix).

(ix) The arbitrator(s) are only authorized to, and only have the consent of the parties to, interpret and apply the terms and conditions of this Section 3.5 in accordance with the governing law. The arbitrator(s) are not authorized to, and shall not, order any remedy not permitted by this Agreement and shall not change any term or condition of this Agreement, deprive either party of any remedy expressly provided hereunder or provide any right or remedy that has not been expressly provided hereunder.

7.3 No Exclusivity.

(a) For the avoidance of doubt, neither the execution of this Agreement by any party nor the taking by any party of any action contemplated by this Agreement nor any other covenant set forth in this Agreement shall preclude or limit in any way Seller from entering into agreements with respect to or consummating those planned dispositions of non-core assets publicly disclosed by Macrovision Corporation in its presentation to RiskMetrics Group representatives on April 8, 2008 publicly filed on April 8, 2008.

(b) For the avoidance of doubt, neither the execution of this Agreement by any party nor the taking by any party of any action contemplated by this Agreement nor any other covenant set forth in this Agreement shall preclude or limit in any way the submission, solicitation, initiation, encouragement or discussion of proposals or offers from any Person, or the entry into any agreement or acceptance of any offer relating to, or the consummation of (i) the direct or indirect acquisition or purchase of all or any portion of the capital stock or equity interests of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries or assets of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, (ii) any merger, consolidation or other business combination relating to Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, or (iii) a recapitalization, reorganization or any other extraordinary business transaction involving or otherwise relating to Parent or any of its Subsidiaries; provided, that any Person involved in a transaction covered by this paragraph shall agree in writing to be bound by the terms of this Agreement in connection with such transaction.

any Person with respect to any Business Transaction (as defined below), (ii) directly or indirectly participating in discussions or negotiations regarding, furnishing to any Person information with respect to or taking any other action to facilitate any inquiries with respect to or otherwise facilitate any Business Transaction or the making of any such proposals or offers, (iii) entering into a definitive agreement with any Person with respect to any Business Transaction (an “Alternative Definitive Agreement”), or (iv) otherwise taking any action with respect to any Business Transaction; provided, however, that the schedules referenced in Sections 3.5, 12.2 and 12.3 of this Agreement shall not be disclosed to any third party in connection with any of the foregoing. In the event that (A) Seller, Stockholder, Parent and/or the Company proposes to enter into an Alternative Definitive Agreement, and (B) either (1) Buyer has not previously delivered to Seller, Stockholder and the Company a Closing Demand Notice, or (2) Buyer has previously delivered to Seller, Stockholder and the Company a Closing Demand Notice but the Closing did not occur on or prior to the Specified Closing Date set forth therein, then Stockholder may at its election terminate this Agreement by written notice to Buyer (an “Alternative Transaction Termination Notice”) in order to permit Seller, Stockholder, Parent and/or the Company to enter into such Alternative Definitive Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, “Business Transaction” shall be deemed to include any direct or indirect (w) reorganization, liquidation, dissolution or recapitalization of the Network Business or the Equity Interests, (x) merger or consolidation involving the Network Business or the Equity Interests, (y) purchase or sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries used in the Network Business, or (z) similar transaction or business combination involving the Network Business or the Equity Interests, whether in a single transaction or series of related transactions.

7.4 Non-Competition.

(a) For a period of five (5) years following the Closing Date, Seller and its affiliates shall not, directly or indirectly through any Person or contractual arrangement, own or operate a television network.

(b) For a period of two (2) years following the Closing Date, Seller and its affiliates shall not, directly or indirectly through any Person or contractual arrangement, own a website which directly competes with XXXxxxx.xxx, as such business is conducted as of the Closing Date; provided, that Buyer hereby agrees that Seller and its affiliates owning or operating a website with a listing grid shall not, by itself, be deemed to directly compete with XXXxxxx.xxx.

(c) During the applicable non-compete period in Section 7.4(a) or 7.4(b) above, Seller and its affiliates shall not, directly or indirectly through any Person or contractual arrangement: solicit, recruit or hire any person who at any time on or after the date of this Agreement and prior to the Closing Date is a Company Group Employee (as defined below) primarily engaged in the Network Business or XXXxxxx.xxx, as applicable, for purposes of the relevant non-solicitation covenant duration; provided, that the foregoing shall not prohibit (i) a

general solicitation to the public of general advertising or similar methods of solicitation by search firms not specifically directed at Company Group Employees or (ii) Seller or any of its affiliates from soliciting, recruiting or hiring any Company Group Employee who has ceased to be employed or retained by the Company, Buyer or any of their respective affiliates for at least nine (9) months. For purposes of this Section 7.4, “Company Group Employees” means, collectively, officers, directors and employees of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, Buyer and their respective affiliates.

(d) The parties agree that this Section 7.4 shall not apply to an acquiror or successor of Parent or any entity or organization that acquires control (either directly or indirectly through one or more intermediaries) of Parent or such a successor, or any affiliate of such entity or organization, if, prior to such transaction, such acquiror or successor or any of their affiliates, directly or indirectly through any Person or contractual arrangement, owns or operates (i) a television network or (ii) a website whose primary purpose is to compete with XXXxxxx.xxx, as such business is conducted as of the Closing Date. Further, this Section 7.4 shall not prohibit Seller or its affiliates from engaging in those transactions or agreements or the types thereof referenced on Section 7.4 of the Disclosure Schedule.

(e) Seller acknowledges that the covenants of Seller set forth in this Section 7.4 are an essential element of this Agreement and that any breach by Seller or its affiliates of any provision of this Section 7.4 will result in irreparable injury to Buyer. Seller acknowledges that in the event of such a breach, in addition to all other remedies available at law, Buyer shall be entitled to seek equitable relief, including injunctive relief, and an equitable accounting of all earnings, profits or other benefits arising therefrom, as well as such other damages as may be appropriate. Seller has independently consulted with its counsel and after such consultation agrees that the covenants set forth in this Section 7.4 are reasonable and proper to protect the legitimate interest of Buyer.

(f) If a court of competent jurisdiction determines that the character, duration or geographical scope of the provisions of this Section 7.4 are unreasonable, it is the intention and the agreement of the parties that these provisions shall be construed by the court in such a manner as to impose only those restrictions on Seller’s conduct that are reasonable in light of the circumstances and as are necessary to assure to Buyer the benefits of this Agreement. If, in any judicial proceeding, a court shall refuse to enforce all of the separate covenants of this Section 7.4 because taken together they are more extensive than necessary to assure to Buyer the intended benefits of this Agreement, it is expressly understood and agreed by the parties that the provisions hereof that, if eliminated, would permit the remaining separate provisions to be enforced in such proceeding, shall be deemed eliminated, for the purposes of such proceeding, from this Agreement.

ARTICLE VIII

BUYER COVENANTS

Buyer covenants and agrees with Stockholder, Seller and the Company as follows:

8.1 Indemnification and Insurance.

(a) Following the Closing and until May 3, 2014, Buyer and the Company shall maintain in effect the exculpation, indemnification and advancement of expenses provisions of the Company’s and any Company Subsidiary’s certificates of incorporation and bylaws or similar organizational documents as in effect immediately prior to the Closing or in any indemnification agreements of the Company or its Subsidiaries with any of their respective directors, officers or employees as in effect immediately prior to the Closing, and shall not amend, repeal or otherwise modify any such provisions in any manner that would adversely affect the rights thereunder of any individuals who at the Closing were current or former directors, officers or employees of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; provided, however, that all rights to indemnification in respect of any Action pending or asserted or any claim made within such period shall continue until the disposition of such Action or resolution of such claim. From and after the Closing, Buyer shall assume, be jointly and severally liable for, and honor, guaranty and stand surety for, and shall cause the Company and its Subsidiaries to honor, in accordance with their respective terms, each of the covenants contained in this Section 8.1 without limit as to time; provided, that in no event shall such action by Buyer have the effect of increasing or otherwise broadening the scope of the indemnification obligations of the Company to such Persons as in effect immediately prior to the Closing.

(b) From and after the Closing, each of Buyer and the Company shall, to the fullest extent permitted under Applicable Law, indemnify and hold harmless (and advance funds in respect of each of the foregoing, following receipt of any undertakings deemed desirable by Buyer or the Company), to the same extent that such Persons are entitled to indemnification pursuant to the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company as in effect as of the Agreement Date, each current and former director, officer or employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries and each Person who served as a director, officer, member, trustee or fiduciary of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, pension or other employee benefit plan or enterprise at the request or for the benefit of the Company (each, together with such Person’s heirs, executors or administrators, an “Indemnified Party”) against any costs or expenses (including advancing attorneys’ fees and expenses in advance of the final disposition of any claim, suit, proceeding or investigation to each Indemnified Party to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law and following receipt of any undertaking deemed desirable by Buyer or the Company), judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages, liabilities and amounts paid in settlement in connection with any actual or threatened Action, arising out of, relating to or in connection with any action or omission occurring or alleged to have occurred in such Indemnified Party’s capacity as a director, officer or employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or in such Indemnified Party’s capacity as a director, officer, member, trustee or fiduciary of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, pension or other employee benefit plan or enterprise at the request or for the benefit of the Company, before the Closing; provided, that nothing in this Agreement (or in such exculpation, indemnification and advancement provisions) shall require Buyer or its affiliates (including the Company and its Subsidiaries after the Closing) to exculpate, indemnify, or provide advancement of expenses to any Person in connection with any dispute arising under or related to this Agreement or any transaction or agreement entered into in connection with this Agreement. In the event of any such Action, Buyer and the Company shall reasonably cooperate with the Indemnified Party in the defense of any such Action.

(c) Following the Closing, Buyer shall, or shall cause the Company to, pay all expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, that may be incurred by any Indemnified Party in enforcing the indemnity and other obligations provided in this Section 8.1.

(d) The rights of each Indemnified Party hereunder shall be in addition to, and not in limitation of, any other rights such Person may have under the certificates of incorporation or bylaws or other organizational documents of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, any other indemnification arrangement, Applicable Law or otherwise. The provisions of this Section 8.1 shall survive the Closing and expressly are intended to benefit, and are enforceable by, each of the Indemnified Parties.

(e) In the event Buyer, the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company, or any of their respective successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity in such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfers all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in either such case, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of Buyer, the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company, as the case may be, shall assume the obligations set forth in this Section 8.1.

8.2 Employee Matters.

(a) On the tenth business day preceding the anticipated Closing Date, the Company shall provide to Buyer a revised version of Section 4.14(a) of the Disclosure Schedule, updated to reflect all changes in such section that have occurred prior to such day. No later than the fifth business day preceding the anticipated Closing Date but effective as of the Closing Date and contingent on the Closing, Buyer shall offer employment to all of the Employees listed on the revised Section 4.14(a) of the Disclosure Schedule. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to (i) provide Buyer with access to such Employees and (ii) assist Buyer in extending offers of employment to such Employees. Buyer shall offer such employment on an “at will” basis and at a wage and salary level (excluding performance-based or incentive compensation, bonuses and equity-based compensation, as applicable) that is the same as that provided to the applicable Employee on the day preceding the Closing Date. Each such offer that is made to an Employee who is actively employed in the Network Business on the day immediately preceding the Closing Date shall be an offer to commence employment on the Closing Date. Each such offer that is made to an Employee who is not actively at work with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries due to a short- or long-term disability leave or other leave of absence (but not including vacation), will be deemed to be an offer of employment with Buyer effective as of the date such Employee is willing and able to return to active work status (the “Start Date”). The Company shall promptly notify Buyer if any Employees employed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries either (i) commences a short- or long-term disability leave or other leave of absence (but not including vacation) during the period of time commencing with the Agreement Date and ending on the Closing Date, or (ii) returns to active employment from any such leave from the Agreement Date to the Closing Date. Each Employee to whom an offer of employment is made pursuant to this Section 8.2(a) and who accepts such offer and commences such employment with Buyer as of the Closing Date or Start Date, as applicable, shall be referred to as a “Retained Employee” and collectively as the “Retained Employees.”

(b) From and after the Closing, except as expressly set forth herein, the Company shall, and Buyer shall cause the Company to, honor all compensation arrangements and agreements in accordance with their terms as in effect immediately before the Closing and as set forth in the offers of employment pursuant to Section 8.2(a) hereof, provided, that nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit the amendment or termination of any such arrangements and agreements in accordance with their terms and Applicable Law. Following the Closing and at all times until May 3, 2009, Buyer shall provide, or shall cause to be provided, to each Retained Employee and former employee of the Company and its Subsidiaries and Stockholder terminated by, or pursuant to an agreement with, the Company or its Subsidiaries or Stockholder (a list of which former employees is set forth on Section 8.2(b) of the Disclosure Schedule) (“Company Employees”) compensation and benefits (other than an employee stock purchase plan) that are no less favorable, in the aggregate, than the compensation and benefits provided to Company Employees immediately before the Closing. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, (i) Buyer shall or shall cause the Company to provide Company Employees whose employment terminates following the Closing and prior to May 3, 2009 with severance benefits in accordance with the Gemstar Change in Control Severance Policy (a copy of which has been provided to Buyer prior to the Agreement Date), and (ii) during such period following the Closing, severance benefits offered to Company Employees shall be determined without taking into account any reduction after May 2, 2008 in compensation paid to such Company Employees. Notwithstanding any term in this Section 8.2(b) to the contrary, nothing in this Section 8.2(b) shall be deemed to restrict the ability to hire or terminate the employment of any current or former Employees following the Closing. The parties hereby agree that Buyer shall be responsible for the payment of the expenses set forth in Section 8.2(b)(i) of the Disclosure Schedule and that Seller shall be responsible for the payment of the expenses set forth in Section 8.2(b)(ii) of the Disclosure Schedule.

(c) For all purposes (including purposes of vesting, eligibility to participate and level of benefits) under the employee benefit plans of Buyer and its Subsidiaries, the Company and its Subsidiaries and Stockholder providing benefits to any Company Employees after the Closing (the “New Plans”), each Company Employee shall be credited with his or her years of service with the Company and its Subsidiaries and Stockholder and their respective predecessors before the Closing, to the same extent as such Company Employee was entitled, before the Closing, to credit for such service under any similar employee benefit plan in which such Company Employee participated or was eligible to participate immediately prior to the Closing, or if there was no such credit for such service under a similar employee benefit plan, under Stockholder’s 401(k) Plan; provided, that the foregoing shall not apply with respect to benefit accrual under any defined benefit pension plan or to the extent that its application would result in a duplication of benefits with respect to the same period of time. In addition, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (i) each Company Employee shall be immediately eligible to participate, without any waiting time, in any and all New Plans, and (ii) for purposes of each New Plan providing medical, dental, pharmaceutical and/or vision benefits to any Company Employee, Buyer and the Company shall cause all pre-existing condition exclusions and actively-at-work requirements of such New Plan to be waived for such employee and his or her covered dependents, unless such conditions would not have been waived under the comparable plans of the Company or its Subsidiaries and their respective predecessors in which such employee participated immediately prior to the Closing and Buyer and the Company shall cause any eligible expenses incurred by such employee and his or her covered dependents during

the portion of the plan year in which such Company Employee participated immediately before the Closing ending on the date such employee’s participation in the corresponding New Plan begins to be taken into account under such New Plan for purposes of satisfying all deductible, coinsurance and maximum out-of-pocket requirements applicable to such employee and his or her covered dependents for the applicable plan year as if such amounts had been paid in accordance with such New Plan.

(d) Except for (i) the Company Benefit Plans listed on Section 8.2(d) of the Disclosure Schedule that Buyer is assuming and (ii) the obligations of Buyer pursuant to Section 8.2(b) hereof, the parties understand and agree that Buyer is not assuming any Company Benefit Plan or Company Foreign Plan, and under no circumstances shall Buyer or its affiliates have any obligation under, or incur any liability in respect of, any Company Benefit Plan or Company Foreign Plan. For the avoidance of doubt, other than payment obligations pursuant to the two employment agreements being assumed by Buyer with terms which extend beyond May 3, 2009 and except to the extent Buyer either takes action after the Closing or consents to Seller taking action prior to the Closing to the contrary, as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, Buyer shall not have any liability for any severance, change of control, or other similar payments in respect of any Retained Employee who is terminated on or after May 3, 2009.

8.3 Nonsolicitation. For a period of one (1) year from and after the Closing Date (the “Nonsolicitation Period”), Buyer shall not, and shall cause its affiliates not to, without the prior written consent of Stockholder, directly or indirectly, solicit to hire (or cause to leave the employ of a party or its Subsidiaries, other than the Company and its Subsidiaries) any employee of Parent or its Subsidiaries unless such Person ceased to be an employee of Parent or its Subsidiaries due to Parent’s or such Subsidiary’s termination of such Person without cause, or, in the case of such Person’s voluntary termination of employment with Parent or its Subsidiaries, at least nine (9) months has elapsed between such Person’s voluntary termination and such action by Buyer or any of its affiliates as the soliciting party. In addition, neither Buyer nor any of its affiliates shall, directly or indirectly through another Person, during the Nonsolicitation Period, (i) call on, solicit or service any customer, supplier, licensee, licensor or other business relation of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries in order to induce or attempt to induce such Person to cease doing business with Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, or (ii) in any way interfere with the relationship between any such customer, supplier, licensee or business relation and Parent or any of its Subsidiaries (including making any negative statements or communications about Parent or any of its Subsidiaries); provided, that nothing in this subpart (ii) shall be deemed to impede Buyer’s and its affiliate’s ability to independently discuss their independent contractual and proposed contractual relations with such entities without reference to any relationship between Parent, any of its Subsidiaries, and such entities.

8.4 Cooperation with Contractual Obligations. The parties agree to cooperate with each other on the matters set forth in Section 8.4 of the Disclosure Schedule.

(a) Buyer shall use its reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable to arrange and consummate, at or prior to the Closing, the financing (the “Financing”) contemplated by an Equity Commitment Letter between One Equity Partners LLC, Seller, Stockholder, Parent and Buyer in the form previously agreed between the parties (the “Commitment Letter”) on the terms and conditions described in the Commitment Letter, including using reasonable best efforts to (i) satisfy on a timely basis all terms, covenants and conditions to obtaining the financing contemplated by the Commitment Letter; and (ii) seek to enforce its rights under the Commitment Letter.

(b) Buyer shall give Seller prompt notice of any material adverse change with respect to the Financing. Without limiting the foregoing, Buyer agrees to notify Seller promptly, and in any event within two (2) business days, if at any time (i) the Commitment Letter shall expire or be terminated for any reason, (ii) any financing source that is a party to the Commitment Letter notifies Buyer that such source no longer intends to provide financing to Buyer on the terms set forth therein, or (iii) for any reason Buyer no longer believes in good faith that Buyer will be able to obtain all or any portion of the Financing contemplated by the Commitment Letter on the terms described therein. Buyer will not, without the prior written consent of Seller, amend or alter, or agree to amend or alter, the Commitment Letter in any manner that would (i) expand or adversely amend the conditions to the Financing set forth in the Commitment Letter; (ii) reasonably be expected to prevent or materially impair or delay the Closing; (iii) reduce the aggregate amount of Financing set forth in the Commitment Letter; or (iv) adversely impact the ability of Buyer or Seller to enforce their rights against the other parties to the Commitment Letter.

(c) If any portion of the Financing becomes unavailable on the terms and conditions contemplated in the Commitment Letter or the Commitment Letter shall be terminated or modified in a manner materially adverse to Buyer for any reason, Buyer shall use its reasonable best efforts to arrange to obtain alternative financing from alternative sources in an amount sufficient to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby (“Alternate Financing”)

and to obtain, and, if obtained, will provide Seller with a copy of, a new financing commitment that provides for at least the same amount of financing as the Commitment Letter as originally issued, and on terms and conditions (including termination rights, funding conditions and other material terms) no less favorable to Buyer than those included in the Commitment Letter (the “New Commitment Letter”). In the event Alternate Financing is obtained and a New Commitment Letter is entered into, references in this Agreement to the Commitment Letter (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the references in this Section 9.8) shall be deemed to include any New Commitment Letter, as applicable.

9.9 Additional Covenants. For the period specified in Section 9.9 of the Disclosure Schedule, Parent agrees to comply with the covenants identified in Section 9.9 of the Disclosure Schedule.

(b) [Intentionally omitted.]

(c) Buyer, by giving written notice to Stockholder, if the Company, Seller, Stockholder or Parent shall have breached or failed to perform in any material respect any of its representations, warranties, covenants or other agreements contained in this Agreement, which breach or failure to perform (i) would result in a failure of a condition set forth in Section 10.1 or 10.2 or failure of the Closing to occur and (ii) cannot be cured by within thirty (30) days; provided, that Buyer shall have given the Company written notice, delivered at least fifteen (15) days prior to such termination, stating Buyer’s intention to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 11.2(c) and the basis for such termination (and such matter shall not have been cured); provided, however, that Buyer shall not have a right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 11.2(c) if Buyer is then in breach of any representations, warranties, covenants or other agreements contained in this Agreement that would result in a failure of a condition set forth in Sections 10.1 or 10.2.

(d) Stockholder, by giving written notice to Buyer, if Buyer shall have breached or failed to perform in any material respect any of its representations, warranties, covenants or other agreements contained in this Agreement, which breach or failure to perform (i) would result in a failure of a condition set forth in Section 10.1 or 10.3 or failure of the Closing to occur and (ii) cannot be cured by the within thirty (30) days; provided, that Stockholder shall have given Buyer written notice, delivered at least fifteen (15) days prior to such termination, stating Stockholder’s intention to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 11.2(d) and the basis for such termination (and such matter shall not have been cured); provided, however, that Stockholder shall not have a right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 11.2(d) if Stockholder or the Company is then in breach of any representations, warranties, covenants or other agreements contained in this Agreement that would result in a failure of a condition set forth in Sections 10.1 or 10.2.

11.3 Effect of Termination.

(a) In the event of termination of this Agreement as provided in Section 11.1 or 11.2, this Agreement shall forthwith become null and void and subject to Section 11.3(b), there shall be no liability or obligation on the part of Buyer, Stockholder, the Company or their respective officers, directors, stockholders or affiliates; provided, however, that (i) the provisions of Section 9.3 (Confidentiality), this Section 11.3 (Effect of Termination) and Article XIV (Miscellaneous) shall remain in full force and effect and survive any termination of this Agreement and (ii) nothing herein shall relieve any party hereto from liability in connection with any which breach of any of such party’s representations, warranties or covenants contained herein; provided, however, that in no event shall Stockholder, the Company or their respective officers, directors, stockholders or affiliates have any liability or obligation hereunder following any termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 11.2(e), Section 11.2(f) or Section 11.2(g).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement that would otherwise terminate will continue to survive if a Claim Notice (as defined below) shall have been given on or prior to such termination date in good faith based on facts reasonably expected to establish a valid claim under this Article XII, until the related claim for indemnification has been satisfied or otherwise resolved as provided in this Article XII. The parties hereto agree that reliance shall not be an element of any claim for misrepresentation or indemnification under the Agreement. The indemnification provisions set forth in (a) Sections 12.2(i) and 12.3(i) shall survive until the Expiration Date, (b) Section 12.2(iii) shall survive until the earlier of the date eighteen (18) months following the Closing Date or a date set forth in Section 12.2(iii) of the Disclosure Schedule (such earlier date, the “First Special Indemnity Expiration Date”), (c) Section 12.2(iv) shall survive until the earlier of the date eighteen (18) months following the Closing Date or the date that is sixty (60) days prior to the date Buyer begins negotiation of a sale of the Network Business, if the fact of such negotiation ultimately becomes known by any third parties by way of later public announcement or otherwise (such earlier date, the “Second Special Indemnity Expiration Date”), and (d) Sections 12.2(ii), 12.3(ii), 12.3(iii) and 12.3(iv) shall survive indefinitely.

12.2 Indemnification by Seller and Parent. After the Closing Date and subject to the additional provisions set forth in this Article XII, Seller and Parent shall, jointly and severally, indemnify Buyer and Buyer’s stockholders and Representatives (and the Company and its Subsidiaries and their respective Representatives) (each a “Buyer Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Buyer Indemnitee harmless from, any and all claims, losses, damages, liabilities, payments and obligations, and all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable legal fees and costs of settlement (collectively “Losses”), incurred,

suffered, sustained or required to be paid, directly or indirectly, by, or imposed upon, such Buyer Indemnitee resulting from, related to or arising out of (i) any breach or inaccuracy as of the Agreement Date or the Closing Date of any representation or warranty of the Company or Stockholder contained in this Agreement or the Company Ancillary Agreements delivered to Buyer pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement or the Company Ancillary Agreements; (ii) any breach by the Company or Stockholder or Seller or Parent or any failure of the Company or Stockholder to perform any of the covenants or obligations contained in this Agreement or the Company Ancillary Agreements delivered to Buyer pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement or the Company Ancillary Agreements; (iii) the occurrence of any of the events set forth in Section 12.2(iii) of the Disclosure Schedule under the circumstances set forth therein (each such event shall be referred to as a “First Special Indemnity Event” and collectively, the “First Special Indemnity Events”) and (iv) the occurrence of any of the events set forth in Section 12.2(iv) of the Disclosure Schedule under the circumstances set forth therein (each such event shall be referred to as a “Second Special Indemnity Event” and collectively the “Second Special Indemnity Events”). Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything contrary, Losses resulting from, related to or arising out of the matters set forth in Sections 12.2(iii) and 12.2(iv) shall be calculated as set forth in Sections 12.2(iii) and 12.2(iv) of the Disclosure Schedule, respectively.

12.3 Indemnification by Buyer. After the Closing Date and subject to the additional provisions set forth in this Article XII, Buyer shall indemnify Stockholder and Stockholder’s respective stockholders and Representatives (each a “Stockholder Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Stockholder Indemnitee harmless from, any and all Losses, incurred, suffered, sustained or required to be paid, directly or indirectly, by, or imposed upon, such Stockholder Indemnitee resulting from, related to or arising out of (i) any breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty of Buyer contained in this Agreement or the Buyer Ancillary Agreements delivered to Stockholder pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement or the Buyer Ancillary Agreements; (ii) any breach by Buyer or any failure of Buyer to perform any of the covenants contained in this Agreement or the Buyer Ancillary Agreements delivered to Stockholder pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement or the Buyer Ancillary Agreements; (iii) any claim by a Stockholder Indemnitee pertaining to the matters set forth in Section 12.3(iii) of the Disclosure Schedule; and (iv) any claim by any third party brought against any Stockholder Indemnitee in connection with or arising from the operation of the Network Business (unless such claim arises from a breach of a representation or warranty by the Company) following the Closing Date.

12.4 Third Party Claims.

(a) If any Buyer Indemnitee or Stockholder Indemnitee (each referred to as an “Indemnitee”) receives notice of the assertion by any third party of any claim or of the commencement by any such third party of any action (any such claim or action being referred to herein as an “Indemnifiable Claim”) with respect to which Stockholder or Buyer (each referred to as “Indemnitor”) are or may be obligated to provide indemnification, the Indemnitee shall promptly notify the Indemnitor in writing (the “Claim Notice”) of the Indemnifiable Claim; provided, that the failure to provide such notice shall not relieve or otherwise affect the obligation of the Indemnitor to provide indemnification hereunder, except to the extent that any Losses directly resulted or were caused by such failure.

(b) The Indemnitors shall have thirty (30) days after receipt of the Claim Notice (unless the claim or action requires a response before the expiration of such thirty-day period, in which case the Indemnitors shall have until the date that is ten (10) days before the required response date) to acknowledge responsibility and undertake, conduct and control, through counsel of its own choosing, and at its expense, the settlement or defense thereof, and the Indemnitees shall cooperate with the Indemnitors in connection therewith; provided, that (i) the Indemnitor shall permit the Indemnitee to participate in such settlement or defense through counsel chosen by the Indemnitee, provided, that the fees and expenses of such Indemnitee’s counsel shall not be borne by the Indemnitors; (ii) the Indemnitor shall not settle any Indemnifiable Claim without the Indemnitee’s consent if the settlement (A) requires the Indemnitee to admit wrongdoing, pay any fines or refrain from any action, (B) does not include a full release of Indemnitee or (C) may reasonably be expected to impact the ongoing operations of the Network Business; and (iii) if, in the opinion of counsel to the Indemnitor, either (x) the Indemnitee has separate defenses from the Indemnitor, (y) there is a conflict of interest between the Indemnitor and Indemnitee or (z) there is any danger of criminal liability of the Indemnitee, then the Indemnitee shall be permitted to retain special counsel of its own choosing at the reasonable expense of the Indemnitor. So long as the Indemnitor is vigorously contesting any such Indemnifiable Claim in good faith, the Indemnitee shall not pay or settle such claim without the Indemnitor’s consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

(c) If the Indemnitor does not notify the Indemnitee within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Claim Notice (or before the date that is ten (10) days before the required response date, if the claim or action requires a response before the expiration of such thirty-day period), that it acknowledges responsibility and elects to undertake the defense of the Indemnifiable Claim described therein, the Indemnitee shall have the right to contest, settle or compromise the Indemnifiable Claim in the exercise of its reasonable discretion; provided, that the Indemnitee shall notify the Indemnitor of any compromise or settlement of any such Indemnifiable Claim.

12.5 Limits on Indemnification.

(a) Except with respect to claims for equitable remedies, claims by any party hereto based on fraud, or claims relating to Tax Matters (Section 4.6 and Article XIII), following the Closing Date, no Indemnitor shall have an indemnification obligation for any amount for Losses arising out of or resulting from the causes enumerated in Sections 12.2(i) or 12.3(i), as appropriate, in excess of fifteen percent (15%) of the Initial Purchase Price, as adjusted pursuant to Section 3.4 hereof, and no Indemnitor shall have any indemnification obligation for any amount of Losses arising out of or resulting from the causes enumerated in Sections 12.2(i) or 12.3(i), as appropriate, except for claims relating to Tax Matters (Section 4.6 and Article XIII) until the total amount of resulting Losses exceeds three-fourths percent (0.75%) of the Initial Purchase Price, as adjusted pursuant to Section 3.4 hereof (the “Threshold Amount”), after which time the Indemnitor shall be liable only for the amount of Losses in excess of the Threshold Amount; provided, that none of the foregoing limitations shall apply to Losses arising out of or relating to the untruth or breach of any representation or warranty made in any Core Representation or to any representation or warranty in the event of fraud. The amount of any Losses indemnifiable by either party pursuant to this Article XII shall be adjusted to reflect the value of any insurance proceeds actually received (net of any deductibles, retention or self-insurance)

by the Indemnitee or its successors or assigns in respect of such Losses; provided, however, that no Indemnitee shall have any obligation to pursue such insurance proceeds or recovery from third Persons. If any such proceeds or recoveries are received by an Indemnitee with respect to any Losses after a party hereto has made a payment to an Indemnitee with respect to such Losses, the Indemnitee shall pay to such party the amount of such proceeds or recoveries (up to the amount of such party’s payment with respect to such Losses). If an Indemnifiable Claim can be asserted pursuant to more than one clause of Section 12.2 or 12.3, as applicable, then the applicable Indemnitee can elect the clause pursuant to which to assert such claim; provided, however, that an Indemnitee cannot be compensated for the same Loss more than once and all Losses shall be calculated net of any actual recovery of an Indemnitee. For each Indemnifiable Claim, an Indemnitor shall only be liable for total Losses incurred as a result of such Indemnifiable Claim, which Losses shall be calculated net of any actual recovery of an Indemnitee, regardless of the number of Indemnitees that may have rights pursuant to such Indemnifiable Claim. Claims for Losses made pursuant to (a) Sections 12.2(i) and 12.3(i) may be made at any time prior to the Expiration Date, (b) Section 12.2(iii) may be made at any time prior to the First Special Indemnity Expiration Date, (c) Section 12.2(iv) may be made at any time prior to the Second Special Indemnity Expiration Date and (d) Sections 12.2(ii), 12.3(ii), 12.3(iii) and 12.3(iv) may be made indefinitely.

(b) Except for Buyer’s obligation to pay the Total Consideration with respect to Buyer if the Closing occurs, notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall the total recovery of a party for Losses incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby exceed the Total Consideration actually paid by Buyer pursuant to this Agreement if the Closing occurs; provided, that the total recovery of the Buyer Indemnitees for Losses incurred as a result of (i) Section 12.2(iii) shall not exceed $100,000,000 in the aggregate and (ii) Section 12.2(iv) shall not exceed $55,000,000 in the aggregate.

12.6 Escrow. At Closing, Buyer will deliver fifteen percent (15%) of the Initial Purchase Price to the escrow account established pursuant to the Escrow Agreement, which Indemnity Escrow Fund shall serve as a source of recovery in the event of a Claim pursuant to this Article XII. Buyer hereby agrees that it shall first seek a remedy from the Indemnity Escrow Fund, to the extent of the amount then held in the Indemnity Escrow Fund, with respect to any indemnification claim asserted hereunder before seeking to recover any Losses directly from Seller.

12.7 Exclusive Remedy. Except in the case of fraud or the pursuit of specific performance of the covenants and agreements in this Agreement, following the Closing, the sole and exclusive remedy of an Indemnitee for Losses hereunder shall be to seek indemnification from the Indemnitor in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Article XII.

12.8 Treatment of Indemnification Payments. Each of Buyer and Stockholder agrees to treat any payment made by Stockholder under this Article XII as an adjustment to the Initial Purchase Price.

12.9 Remedies Not Affected by Investigation, Disclosure or Knowledge. If the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, Buyer expressly reserves the right to seek indemnity or other remedy under Section 12.2(i) or Section 12.2(ii) for any Losses arising out of

or relating to any breach of any representation or warranty of the Company or Stockholder contained in this Agreement or the Company Ancillary Agreements delivered to Buyer pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement or the Company Ancillary Agreements, or any Losses arising out of or relating to any breach of any covenant of the Company contained in this Agreement or the Company Ancillary Agreements delivered to Buyer pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement or the Company Ancillary Agreements, notwithstanding (a) any investigation by, disclosure to or knowledge of Buyer in respect of any fact or circumstances that reveals the occurrence of any such breach, whether before or after the execution and delivery hereof, or (b) any waiver of such breach in connection with the Closing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer waives its rights to indemnity or any other remedy for Losses arising out of or relating to the breach of any covenant set forth in this Agreement, but only to the extent Buyer expressly waived the satisfaction or compliance of such covenant by the Company and failed to reserve its rights to seek indemnification in connection with the delivery of such waiver.

ARTICLE XIII

CERTAIN TAX MATTERS

13.1 Transfer Taxes. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, all transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration and such other Taxes, and all conveyance fees, recording charges and other fees and charges (collectively, the “Transfer Taxes”) incurred in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be paid by Stockholder when due and other documentation with respect to all such Taxes, fees and charges, and Stockholder shall at its own expense, file all necessary Tax Returns if required by Applicable Law.

13.2 Allocation of Purchase Price. The sum of the Initial Purchase Price and the additional Purchase Price (exclusive of any portion treated as interest) and indebtedness of the Company and its Subsidiaries outstanding as of Closing (the “Purchase Price”) will be allocated among the assets and the Company and each effective subsidiary consistent with the methodology set forth in Section 13.2 of the Disclosure Schedule. The allocation of the Total Purchase Price shall be set forth on Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) Form 8594 (and any schedule required to be attached thereto). Should there be any disagreement in filing Form 8594, the matter will be referred to the Independent Accountant, who will determine the final and binding allocation of the Purchase Price within thirty (30) days of such referral, taking into account the methodology set forth in Section 13.2 of the Disclosure Schedule, which determination will thereupon be conclusive and binding on Buyer and Stockholder for all purposes. The costs of such accountants will be shared equally by Buyer and Stockholder. Buyer and Stockholder each agree to file their respective federal and state income Tax Returns, reports and forms, including IRS Form 8594, in a manner consistent with said allocation.

13.3 Tax-Sharing Agreements. Any Tax-sharing agreement between the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and Parent or Stockholder, on the other, is terminated as of the Closing and shall have no further effect for any taxable year (whether the current year, a future year or a past year).

13.4 Indemnification for Post-Closing Transactions. Buyer shall indemnify Parent, Stockholder and their affiliates for any additional tax owed by any of them resulting from any transaction engaged in by any of the Company or any Subsidiary not in the ordinary course of its business occurring on the Closing Date after the Effective Time, which transaction was initiated by Buyer.

13.5 Post-Closing Transactions not in Ordinary Course. Buyer and Parent agree to report all transactions not in the ordinary course of business occurring on the Closing Date after the Effective Time in respect of Company or any Subsidiary on Buyer’s federal Income Tax Return to the extent permitted by Reg. §1.1502-76(b)(1)(ii)(B).

13.6 Responsibility for Filing Tax Returns and Payment of Taxes for Periods through the Closing Date. Parent shall include the Company and the Subsidiaries that are members of the selling consolidated group in Parent’s consolidated federal income Tax Returns for all periods through the Closing Date and report income, gain and loss attributable to the transaction contemplated by this Agreement. For all taxable periods ending on or before the Closing Date, Parent shall cause the Subsidiaries that are members of the selling consolidated group to join in Parent’s consolidated federal income Tax Return and, in jurisdictions in which the Acquired Companies have in the past been included in state combined or consolidated Tax Returns, join in such Tax Returns. Parent and Stockholder shall file the federal and applicable state and foreign Tax Returns for the Company and its Subsidiaries for all periods through the Closing Date. All such Tax Returns shall be prepared and filed in a manner consistent with prior practice, except as required by a change in Applicable Law. Stockholder shall indemnify Buyer and its affiliates for any unpaid Taxes relating to any Period through the Closing Date. Buyer shall cause the Company and the Subsidiaries that are included in the Tax Returns to be filed under this paragraph by Parent, Stockholder or any Subsidiary of Parent, to furnish information to Parent, Stockholder or any Subsidiary of Parent as reasonably requested to allow Parent, Stockholder or any Subsidiary of Parent to satisfy its obligations under this section in accordance with past custom and practice. Buyer shall cause the Company and Subsidiaries to file all other Tax Returns to be filed after the Closing Date. Stockholder shall indemnify Buyer and its affiliates for any Taxes relating to or attributable to a period ending on or before the Closing Date, other than any Taxes taken into account as a liability in the Post-Closing Balance Sheet in accordance with Section 3.4. In respect of a Tax Return with a period that starts before or on but does not end on the Closing Date, this amount shall be deemed to be equal to the amount that would be payable if the relevant Tax Return ended on the Closing Date. In respect of a Tax that is based upon a time period, such Tax shall be pro rated based upon the number of days prior to the Closing Date.

13.7 Responsibility for Taxes for Periods after the Closing Date. Buyer shall indemnify Stockholder and its affiliates for any Taxes relating to a period after the Closing Date.

13.8 Cooperation on Tax Matters. Buyer, Stockholder and Parent shall cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other party, in connection with the filing of Tax Returns pursuant to this Article XIII and any audit, litigation or other proceeding with respect to Taxes. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the other party’s request) the provision of records and information that are reasonably relevant to any such audit, litigation or other proceeding and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. Buyer agrees to (A) retain all books and records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to the Company and the

Subsidiaries relating to any taxable period beginning before the Closing Date until the expiration of the statute of limitations (and, to the extent notified by Parent or Stockholder, any extensions thereof) of the respective taxable periods, and to abide by all record retention agreements entered into with any taxing authority, and (B) give Stockholder reasonable written notice prior to transferring, destroying or discarding any such books and records and, if Stockholder so requests, Buyer shall allow Stockholder to take possession of such books and records.

13.9 Tax Proceedings. Stockholder and Buyer shall jointly control the defense and settlement of any Tax audit, administrative or court proceedings (each, a “Tax Proceeding”) relating to any Tax Return that includes income, gain, loss or Transfer Taxes (including Transfer Taxes to which Section 13.1 applies) attributable to ordinary course and non-ordinary course transactions ending prior to or on Closing Date and reportable in a taxable period ending after the Closing Date. Stockholder shall control the defense and settlement of any Tax Proceeding at its own expense, relating to any Tax Return that does not include income, gain, loss or Transfer Taxes (excluding Transfer Taxes to which Section 13.1 applies) attributable to ordinary course and non-ordinary course transactions ending after the Closing Date.

13.10 Indemnification. In the event the Closing occurs, anything in Section 12.4 notwithstanding, Buyer shall indemnify the Stockholder Indemnitees, and the consolidated and combined tax filing groups of which Stockholder is a member, against, and hold each of them harmless from, any Taxes arising from the Conversions and the Purchase that exceed the Taxes that would have been incurred by them had the Conversions not occurred and the Buyer instead purchased the stock of the Company and made elections with respect to the purchase of such Company stock (and its Subsidiaries) pursuant to Section 338(h)(10) of the Code for federal and applicable state income tax purposes (the “Incremental Taxes”). If Stockholder believes any Stockholder Indemnitee (or such tax filing group) has incurred an Incremental Tax, Stockholder shall provide Buyer with its calculation of such Incremental Taxes, including sufficient information for Buyer to determine the basis therefor. If Buyer disagrees with Stockholder’s calculation, the disagreement shall be resolved by an Independent Accountant, whose determination of the Incremental Taxes, if any, shall be conclusive and binding on both parties. The fees of the Independent Accountant shall be borne 50% by each of Buyer and Stockholder.

ARTICLE XIV

MISCELLANEOUS

14.1 Governing Law; Exclusive Jurisdiction. The internal laws of the State of Delaware, irrespective of its conflicts of law principles, shall govern the validity of this Agreement, the construction of its terms, and the interpretation and enforcement of the rights and duties of the parties hereto. Each of the parties irrevocably agrees that any legal action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement brought by the other party or its successors or assigns shall be exclusively brought and determined in the Chancery Court of the State of Delaware.

14.2 Assignment; Binding Upon Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. This Agreement shall not be assignable (whether in whole or in part) by any party hereto without the prior written consent of the other parties hereto. Any assignment in violation of this provision shall be void.

14.3 Severability. If any term or provision of this Agreement or the application thereof to any circumstance shall be invalid or unenforceable, such term or provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability, and the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. The parties further agree to replace such invalid or unenforceable provision of this Agreement with a valid and enforceable provision that shall achieve, to the extent practicable, the economic, business and other purposes of the invalid or unenforceable provision.

14.4 Counterparts; Facsimile Signatures. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original as regards any party whose signature appears thereon and all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. This Agreement shall become binding when one or more counterparts hereof, individually or taken together, shall bear the signatures of all parties reflected hereon as signatories. This Agreement may be executed and delivered by one party hereto to the other parties hereto by facsimile or e-mail transmission of a photocopy of the original signature page hereto, and upon receipt of such facsimile or e-mail transmission will be deemed to have the same effect as if the original signature had been delivered to the other parties. The parties shall endeavor to exchange the original signature copies, but the failure to deliver the original signature copy and/or the nonreceipt of the original signature copy shall have no effect upon the binding and enforceable nature of this Agreement.

14.5 Other Remedies. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, any and all remedies herein expressly conferred upon a party hereunder shall be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby or by law on such party, and the exercise of any one remedy shall not preclude the exercise of any other. The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to seek an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof in any court of the United States or any state having jurisdiction, provided, however, that Seller, Stockholder, or the Company shall only be entitled to seek specific performance in two instances: (i) in the event Buyer delivers a Closing Demand Notice, Stockholder shall be entitled to seek specific performance of Buyer’s obligation to consummate the Closing pursuant to Section 3.2, and (ii) in the event the Buyer Termination Fee is payable pursuant to Section 11.3(b), Stockholder shall have the right to seek specific performance of the payment of the Buyer Termination Fee. Except as set forth in the provisions of the immediately preceding sentence, none of the Company, Parent, Seller or Stockholder shall have the right to seek equitable relief in any other circumstance whatsoever.

14.6 Amendments and Waivers. Any term or provision of this Agreement may be amended, and the observance of any term of this Agreement may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively), only by a writing signed by Buyer, the Company, and Stockholder (on behalf of Stockholder). The waiver by a party of any breach hereof or default in the performance hereof shall not be deemed to constitute a waiver of

any other default or any succeeding breach or default. At any time prior to the Closing, each of the Company, Buyer, and Stockholder may, to the extent legally allowed, (a) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the other, (b) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties made to it contained herein or in any document delivered pursuant hereto, and (c) waive compliance with any of the agreements or conditions for its benefit contained herein. No such waiver or extension shall be effective unless signed in writing by the party against whom such waiver or extension is asserted. The failure of any party to enforce any of the provisions hereof shall not be construed to be a waiver of the right of such party thereafter to enforce such provisions.

14.7 Expenses. Except as expressly provided otherwise herein, whether or not the Purchase and the other transactions contemplated hereby are successfully consummated, each party shall bear its respective legal, accountants, and financial advisory fees and other expenses incurred with respect to this Agreement, the Purchase and the transactions contemplated hereby; provided, that if the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, such fees and expenses shall be borne and paid by Seller and not by the Company or its Subsidiaries. In the event of termination of this Agreement, the obligation of each party to pay its own expenses will be subject to any rights of such party arising from a breach of this Agreement by the other party.

14.8 Attorneys’ Fees. Except as expressly set forth in Sections 3.4(e) and 3.5(e)(vii), should any Action be brought to enforce or interpret any part of this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover, as an element of the costs of suit and not as damages, reasonable attorneys’ fees to be fixed by the court (including costs, expenses and fees on any appeal). The prevailing party shall be entitled to recover its costs of any Action, regardless of whether such Action proceeds to final judgment.

14.9 Notices. All notices and other communications required or permitted under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be either hand delivered in Person, sent by facsimile and followed by certified first-class postage pre-paid mail, sent by certified or registered first-class mail, postage pre-paid, or sent by nationally recognized express courier service. Such notices and other communications shall be effective upon receipt if hand delivered or sent by facsimile, three (3) business days after mailing if sent by mail, and one business day after dispatch if sent by express courier, to the following addresses, or such other addresses as any party may notify the other parties in accordance with this Section 14.9:

14.10 Interpretation; Rules of Construction. When a provision of this Agreement states that a document or thing has been delivered to Buyer, the parties intend for the availability of that document or thing via the electronic data room established for Buyer’s review to constitute delivery. When a reference is made in this Agreement to Exhibits, Sections or Articles, such reference shall be to an Exhibit to, Section of or Article of this Agreement, respectively, unless otherwise indicated. The words “include”, “includes” and “including” when used herein shall be deemed in each case to be followed by the words “without limitation”. The headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. The parties hereto agree that they have been represented by legal counsel during the negotiation and execution of this Agreement and, therefore, waive the application of any law, regulation, holding or rule of construction providing that ambiguities in an agreement or other document shall be construed against the party drafting such agreement or document.

14.11 No Third Party Beneficiary Rights. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any Person other than the parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns any legal or equitable right, benefit, or remedy of any nature under or by reason of this Agreement, except for the provisions of Section 8.1 (which, from and

after the Closing, shall be for the benefit of each Indemnified Party), Section 8.2 (which, from and after the Closing, shall be for the benefit of each Company Employee) and Article XII (which, from and after the Closing, shall be for the benefit of each Indemnitee).

14.12 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the Exhibits and Schedules hereto, the Company Ancillary Agreements and the Buyer Ancillary Agreements constitute the entire understanding and agreement of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior and contemporaneous agreements or understandings, inducements or conditions, express or implied, written or oral, between the parties with respect hereto other than the Confidentiality Agreements. The express terms hereof control and supersede any course of performance or usage of the trade inconsistent with any of the terms hereof.

14.13 Waiver Of Jury Trial. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.
