With respect to all Pre-Closing Tax periods other than Parent Ownership Tax Periods, each Blocker Entity shall file Tax Returns and make estimated and final Tax payments in accordance with applicable Law. Any Tax credits or refunds received for a Pre-Closing Tax period other than a Parent Ownership Tax Period shall be promptly paid over to the Blocker’s Seller. The following procedures shall be followed with respect to the Tax liability of Syncom Blocker and Baralonco Blocker for the Parent Ownership Tax Periods:

(iii) Parent shall cause the Blocker Entities to file their Tax Returns for the Parent Ownership Tax Periods in a manner substantially consistent with the draft Tax Returns delivered pursuant to Section 8.13(c)(ii), provided, however, that if Parent disagrees with the treatment of any item on such draft Tax Returns, the parties will negotiate in good faith to resolve any such disagreement. Failing such resolution, the matter shall be referred to the Accounting Referee, the determination of which shall be final and binding upon the parties.

(iv) At least two business days prior to the required date (including any extensions permitted by law) for filing the Tax Return for any Parent Ownership Tax Period, the Syncom Blocker Seller or the Baralonco Blocker Seller, as the case may be, shall pay to Parent the amount of the Pre-Closing Tax Liability shown as due on the corresponding Tax Return.

(v) No later than five business days before the Blocker Settlement Date, Parent shall deliver to each Blocker Seller a reconciliation statement showing:

(x) the aggregate Pre-Closing Tax Liability of the corresponding Blocker Entity for the Parent Ownership Tax Periods (as reflected on the Tax Returns to be filed pursuant to clause Section 8.13(c)(iii)) with

(y) the amounts paid by the corresponding Blocker Entity and by the Blocker Sellers pursuant to Sections 8.13(c)(i) and (iv) in respect of such returns prior to the Closing, including a statement of the amount (if any) required to be paid by each such Seller to Parent or by Parent to such Seller in order to effect such reconciliation.

(i) the Sellers’ Committee shall be entitled to participate in such audit, including having the right to participate in any contest or settlement discussions with respect to any claims or assessments pursuant thereto, and

(ii) no settlement of such audit shall be settled or compromised without the consent of the Sellers’ Committee, which such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, provided, however, that if Parent reasonably concludes that any positions or settlements proposed by the Sellers’ Committee in the conduct of such audit has or could have a material adverse effect on Parent and/or any Blocker Entity, no consent of the Sellers’ Committee shall be required, and Parent shall have ultimate control of any settlement or compromise of such audit.

Section 10.03. Indemnification Procedures. The party seeking indemnification under Section 10.02 (the “Indemnified Party”) agrees to give prompt notice to the party against whom indemnity is sought (the “Indemnifying Party”) of the assertion of any claim, or the commencement of any suit, action or proceeding in respect of which indemnity may be sought under such Section. The Indemnified Party will be entitled, at the sole expense and liability of the Indemnifying Party, to exercise full control of the defense, compromise, or settlement of any such third party claim unless the Indemnifying Party, within twenty (20) days after the giving of such notice by the Indemnified Party, and in any event within such shorter period as may be reasonably necessary for the Indemnified Party to otherwise take appropriate action to resist such third party claim, (i) acknowledges in writing without any reservation of its rights its indemnification obligations and provides reasonable assurance to the Indemnified Party of its financial capacity to defend such third party claim and provide full indemnification with respect to such third party claim, (ii) notifies the Indemnified Party in writing of the Indemnifying Party’s intention to assume such defense and (iii) retains legal counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party to conduct the defense of such third party claim. If the Indemnifying Party does not elect to exercise control of the defense, compromise or settlement of such third party claim, it may at its own expense participate in (but not control) such defense, compromise or settlement. The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable under Section 10.02 for any settlement effected without its consent (not to be unreasonably withheld) of any claim, litigation or proceeding in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder.

Section 10.04. Indemnification Payments. Any payment under Section 10.02 to an Indemnified Party entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 10.02 shall be paid to such Indemnified Party by (1) wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account of such Indemnified Party as may be designated by such Indemnified Party or (2) delivery to such Indemnified Party of a certified or official bank check payable in immediately available funds to such Indemnified Party. Any such payments and any payments pursuant to Sections 8.13(c)(i), (iv) or (v) hereof shall constitute adjustments to the purchase price of the corresponding Units or Blocker Shares and shall be so treated by the parties for all Tax purposes.

Section 10.05. Waiver of Claims and Rights. Except for (i) rights arising pursuant to the terms of any Transaction Document (or any document identified on Schedule 10.05), (ii) rights arising pursuant to any employment agreement with Parent or its Affiliates, or under any Employee Plan described in this Agreement and (iii) rights to indemnification for actions taken in their capacity as an director or officer, each Seller, as of the Closing Date, irrevocably waives any rights and claims such Seller, or, to the extent permitted by Law and otherwise, any person designated to serve as an officer or director of the Company by such Seller, may have against Parent, any of its Affiliates or their respective officers, directors, employees or agents, whether in law or in equity, relating to the Blocker Entities, the Units, the Company, the Company’s Subsidiaries, the Interests or any options to purchase Interests, or

arising out of such Person’s ownership of Units or any options to purchase Units, such Person’s position (including as a director or officer) with the Blocker Entities, the Company or the Company’s Subsidiaries prior to the Closing (subject to the exclusions described above), the operation of the business of the Blocker Entities, the Company and the Company’s Subsidiaries prior to the Closing or the transactions contemplated hereby or by any other Transaction Document.

Section 10.06. Exclusive Remedy. Except as specifically set forth in the Transaction Documents, effective as of the Closing the parties waive any rights and claims they may have against the other parties, whether in law or in equity, relating to this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby. After the Closing, the Indemnified Parties’ sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any and all claims relating to this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby shall be pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article 10. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 10.06 does not apply to any of the documents identified on Schedule 10.05.

ARTICLE 11

TERMINATION

Section 11.01. Grounds for Termination. This Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the Closing Date (notwithstanding any approval of this Agreement by the stockholders of Parent):

(a) by mutual written agreement of the Company and Parent;

(b) by either the Company or Parent, if:

(i) the Closing has not been consummated on or before June 29, 2009 (if all regulatory approvals required to consummate the Closing have been obtained prior to such date) or February 14, 2010 (if the only condition to Closing unfulfilled as of June 29, 2009 is the obtaining of all regulatory approvals required to consummate the Closing), (the “End Date”); provided that the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 11.01(b)(i) shall not be available to any party whose breach of any provision of this Agreement results in the failure of the Closing to be consummated by such time;

(ii) there shall be any material Law that (A) makes consummation of the Closing illegal or otherwise prohibited or (B) enjoins the parties hereto from consummating the Closing and such injunction shall have become final and nonappealable; or

(iii) the Parent Stockholder Approval shall not have been obtained at the Parent Shareholder Meeting (including any adjournment thereof);

(c) by Parent, if a breach of any representation or warranty or failure to perform any covenant or agreement on the part of the Company or a Seller set forth in this Agreement shall

have occurred that would cause the condition set forth in Section 9.02(a) not to be satisfied, and such condition is incapable of being satisfied by the End Date; or

(d) by the Company, if:

(i) a breach of any representation or warranty or failure to perform any covenant or agreement on the part of the Parent set forth in this Agreement shall have occurred that would cause the condition set forth in Section 9.03(a) not to be satisfied, and such condition is incapable of being satisfied by the End Date; or

(ii) the Parent Stockholder Meeting has not been held within 90 days of the Parent Proxy Statement being cleared by the SEC.

The party desiring to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 11.01 (other than pursuant to Section 11.01(a)) shall give notice of such termination to the other party.

Section 11.02. Effect of Termination. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 11.01, this Agreement shall become void and of no effect without liability of any party (or any stockholder, member, director, officer, employee, agent, consultant or representative of such party) to the other party hereto; provided that, if such termination shall result from the willful (i) failure of any party to fulfill a condition to the performance of the obligations of the other party or (ii) failure of any party to perform a covenant hereof, such party shall be fully liable for any and all liabilities and damages incurred or suffered by the other parties as a result of such failure. The provisions of this Section 11.02, Section 11.03 and Article 12 shall survive any termination hereof pursuant to Section 11.01.

Section 11.03. Termination Fee. If (x) this Agreement is terminated by Parent or the Company pursuant to Section 11.01(b)(iii), (y) Parent breaches its obligations under Section 7.02 or Section 8.01 of this Agreement and (z) Parent consummates an Initial Business Combination (other than with the Company), Parent shall pay to the Company, within two Business Days of such consummation, $5,000,0000 in cash, shares of Parent Stock or combination thereof, at Parent’s election. The number of shares of Parent Stock deliverable in respect of the amount elected by the Parent to be delivered in shares of Parent Stock shall equal (x) such amount divided by (y) the Average Stock Price as of the date of such consummation, provided that no fractional shares shall be delivered and that cash shall be paid in lieu of any fractional shares. The receipt of such cash or shares of Parent Stock, as the case may be, shall be the exclusive remedy of the Company, Sellers and their respective Affiliates with respect to such breach and they shall have waived any other rights and claims they may have against Parent and its Affiliates, whether in law or in equity, relating to this Agreement, the other Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, following receipt of such cash or shares of Parent Stock. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if prior to ten (10) Business Days immediately following the termination of this Agreement, the Company notifies Parent in writing that it believes in good faith that Parent has committed a willful breach of this Agreement, then the obligation of Parent set forth in the first sentence of this Section 11.03 shall not come into effect and the Company shall have the right to pursue its remedies for willful breach of this Agreement against Parent, subject to other limitations set forth in this Agreement.

Section 11.04. Limitation On Remedy. Sellers and the Company hereby acknowledge that (a) they have read the prospectus dated February 14, 2008, filed by Parent with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424 promulgated under the 1933 Act and understand that Parent has established the Trust Account for the benefit of certain Persons (as described in the prospectus) and that Parent may disburse monies from the Trust Account only to certain Persons (as described in the prospectus) and (b) for and in consideration of Parent agreeing to evaluate the Blocker Entities and the Company for purposes of consummating a transaction with respect to their capital stock, Sellers and the Company agree that, prior to Closing, they do not have, directly or indirectly, any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies in the Trust Account and waive any such claim they may have in the future as a result of, or arising out of, this Agreement, any other Transaction Document or any negotiations, contracts or agreements with Parent or any of its Affiliates or representatives and will not seek recourse, directly or indirectly, against the Trust Account for any reason whatsoever.

Section 12.02. Amendments and Waivers. (a) Any provision of this Agreement (including any Schedule or Exhibit hereto) may be amended or waived if, but only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and is signed, in the case of an amendment, by Parent, the Company, the Sellers’ Committee and each other party to this Agreement who is adversely affected by such amendment in a manner that is material and disproportionate to any other party, or in the case of a waiver, by the party against whom the waiver is to be effective. Notwithstanding the foregoing, after the Closing, amendments or waivers must be approved in writing by the Sellers’ Committee.

(b) No failure or delay by any party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies herein provided shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by Law.

Section 12.03. Addition of Sellers. In the event that one or more of the Persons listed on Schedule 2.01 has not executed a counterpart to this Agreement as of the date hereof, Parent, in its sole discretion, may allow such person after the date hereof to execute (x) a counterpart to this Agreement, accepting and agreeing to be bound by all of the terms and conditions hereof, and (y) such other documents or instruments as are necessary or appropriate to effect such Person’s addition as a Seller hereunder.

Section 12.07. Jurisdiction. The parties hereto agree that any suit, action or proceeding seeking to enforce any provision of, or based on any matter arising out of or in connection with, this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby shall be brought in any federal court located in the State of Delaware or any Delaware state court, and each of the parties hereby irrevocably consents to the jurisdiction of such courts (and of the appropriate appellate courts therefrom) in any such suit, action or proceeding and irrevocably waives, to the fullest

extent permitted by law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding in any such court or that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. Process in any such suit, action or proceeding may be served on any party anywhere in the world, whether within or without the jurisdiction of any such court. Without limiting the foregoing, each party agrees that service of process on such party as provided in Section 12.01 shall be deemed effective service of process on such party.

Section 12.08. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

Section 12.09. Counterparts; No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument.

Section 12.11. Specific Performance. The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur if any provision of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with the terms hereof and that the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement or to enforce specifically the performance of the terms and provisions hereof (subject, in the case of enforcement against Parent, to the limitations set forth in Section 11.04) in any federal court located in the State of Delaware or any Delaware state court, in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be duly executed by their respective authorized officers as of the day and year first above written.
