Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, from the date hereof until the Closing Date, Sellers shall be permitted to develop and deploy a LTE mobile broadband network as part of the Business; provided that (a) the details of such development and deployment are provided to Purchaser reasonably in advance of such development and deployment, (b) Sellers shall consider in good faith any reasonable concerns or suggestions communicated by Purchaser to Sellers with respect to such development and deployment to the extent it would affect integration of Sellers’ network with that of Purchaser, and (c) such development and deployment would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on the Business, the Transferred Assets or the Assumed Liabilities.

Section 5.24 USF Approvals. If, and to the extent, (i) the USF Approvals are obtained prior to Closing and (ii) Purchaser elects to accept the USF Assets and assume the USF Liabilities by delivering written notice to Sellers prior to Closing, the Transferred Assets shall include the USF Assets (for the avoidance of doubt, the calculation of Working Capital shall not include the USF Assets) and the Assumed Liabilities shall include the USF Liabilities. To the extent the USF Approvals are not obtained prior to Closing or to the extent Purchaser elects not to accept the USF Assets and assume the USF Liabilities by delivering notice to Sellers prior to Closing, Purchaser shall reimburse Sellers at the Closing an amount equal to any Performance Default Payment (as that term is used in paragraphs 189-192 of Mobility Fund Phase I Auction Scheduled for September 27, 2012; Notice and Filing Requirements and Other Procedures for Auction 901, AU Docket ▇▇. ▇▇-▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇ ▇▇-▇▇▇ (released May 2, 2012) that Sellers are required to pay to any Governmental Authority following payment thereof by the Sellers; provided, however, that Purchaser shall not be required to reimburse Sellers for any Auction Default Payment (as that term is used in paragraphs 184-188 of Mobility Fund Phase I Auction Scheduled for September 27, 2012; Notice and Filing Requirements and Other Procedures for Auction 901, AU Docket ▇▇. ▇▇-▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇ ▇▇-▇▇▇ (released May 2, 2012)). If and to the extent Purchaser has elected to accept the USF Assets and assume the USF Liabilities pursuant to clause (ii) of the first sentence of this Section 5.24, Sellers may elect to cancel such acceptance and assumption by delivering written notice to Purchaser prior to Closing, subject to receipt prior to Closing of the written approvals required by any Governmental Authority to effect such cancellation and confirm that Purchaser has not assumed any USF Liabilities; provided that (a) such election by Sellers would not reasonably be expected to prevent, impede or materially delay the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and (b) Sellers reimburse Purchaser for the amount equal to any Performance Payment Default described in the second sentence of this Section 5.24 and imposed on Purchaser.

TAX MATTERS

Section 6.1 Tax Indemnification.

(a) Sellers shall indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser Indemnified Parties from and against any Losses with respect to any liability for Taxes (other than Transfer Taxes pursuant to Section 6.2) imposed on or otherwise relating to the Transferred Assets, the Partnerships and Transferred LLCs (i) attributable to any taxable period that ends on or prior to the Closing Date (a “Pre-Closing Tax Period”) or any portion of any taxable period that is not a Pre-Closing Tax Period that ends on the Closing Date, (including under Treasury Regulation Section 1502-6 or any similar rule of foreign, federal, state or local law, or as a tranferee, successor or otherwise), or (ii) in connection with a breach of any representation with respect to Taxes in Section 3.11. Sellers shall indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser Indemnified Parties from and against any Losses arising in connection with a technical termination of any Partnership within the meaning of Section 708 of the Code due to the transfer of Partnership Interests pursuant to this Agreement, whether under the terms of the agreement of such Partnership or otherwise.

- 61 -

(b) Purchaser shall indemnify and hold harmless the Seller Indemnified Parties from and against any liability for Taxes relating to the Transferred Assets, the Partnerships and the Transferred LLCs and attributable to any taxable period that is not a Pre-Closing Tax Period, except for any portion of such taxable period that ends on the Closing Date. Any claim to be made pursuant to this Section 6.1 must be made before the expiration (with valid extensions) of the applicable statute of limitations plus thirty (30) days related to the Taxes at issue.

(c) Any payment made pursuant to this Section 6.l shall be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by law.

(d) For purposes of this Section 6.1, except as provided in the Transition Services Agreement, any Tax liability attributable to a taxable period that begins before and ends after the Closing Date (a “Straddle Period”) shall be apportioned between the portion of such period ending on the Closing Date and the portion beginning on the day after the Closing Date (x) in the case of real and personal property Taxes, by apportioning such Taxes on a per diem basis and (y) in the case of all other Taxes, on the basis of a “closing of the books” as of the end of the Closing Date.

(e) Sellers shall be responsible for preparing any Tax Returns with respect to the Transferred Assets, the Partnerships and the Transferred LLCs (in the case of the Partnerships, to the extent Sellers have the direct or indirect right to do so under the terms of the agreement of such Partnerships) for any Pre-Closing Tax Periods. Purchaser shall be responsible for preparing any Tax Returns with respect to the Transferred Assets, the Partnerships and Transferred LLCs (in the case of the Partnerships, to the extent Purchaser has the direct or indirect right to do so under the terms of the agreement of such Partnerships) for Straddle Periods. Purchaser shall make such Tax Returns available for review by Sellers in advance of the due date for filing such Tax Returns and shall consider in good faith any change reasonably requested by Sellers to such Tax Returns. In the event of any disagreement between Purchaser and Sellers, such disagreement shall be resolved by an accounting firm of international reputation mutually agreeable to Purchaser and Sellers (the “Accountant”) and any such determination by the Accountant shall be final. The fees and expenses of the Accountant shall be borne equally by Purchaser and Sellers.

(f) A party (the “first party”) shall promptly notify the other party (the “second party”) in writing upon receipt of notice of any Tax audits, examinations or assessments that may give rise to a liability for which the second party is responsible under Section 6.1(a) or Section 6.1(b), respectively; provided, that a failure to provide notice shall not affect the first party’s rights to indemnification hereunder, except to the extent that the second party is materially prejudiced thereby. Sellers shall control any such audit, examination or proceeding that relates to a Pre-Closing Tax Period and the parties shall share control over any such audit, examination or proceeding that relates to a Straddle Period; provided that Purchaser shall be entitled to participate in any such contest with its own counsel at its own expense, and Sellers shall provide Purchaser with reasonable advance notice of all communications with any Tax authority, and with advance copies of all materials to be submitted to any Tax authority (and shall provide Purchaser a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on any such materials), and shall otherwise cooperate with Purchaser in good faith in connection with the conduct of any such contest. Purchaser shall control any audit, examination or proceeding that does not relate to Taxes for which Sellers may be responsible under Section 6.1(a). Neither party shall settle or resolve any Tax liability in a manner that could adversely affect the other party without the other party’s consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

- 62 -

(g) Sellers and Purchaser shall (and shall cause their respective Affiliates to) (i) provide the other party and its Affiliates with such assistance as may be reasonably requested in connection with the preparation of any Tax Return or any audit or other examination by any taxing authority or judicial or administrative proceeding relating to Taxes with respect to the Transferred Assets; and (ii) retain (and provide the other party and its Affiliates with reasonable access to) all records or information which may be relevant to such Tax Return, audit, examination or proceeding; provided that the foregoing shall be done in a manner so as not to interfere unreasonably with the conduct of the business of the parties.

Section 6.2 Transfer Taxes. Purchaser, on the one hand, and Sellers, on the other hand, shall each bear one half of the expense of all use, sales, transfer, recording, registration and other fees, and other similar transaction Taxes, if any, imposed by reason of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (“Transfer Taxes”). Purchaser shall be responsible for preparing and timely filing any Tax Returns required with respect to any such Transfer Taxes. Purchaser and Sellers agree to reasonably cooperate to structure the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in a manner that will minimize the amount of any such Taxes.

Section 6.3 Like-Kind Exchange. In the event that either Sellers or Purchaser desires to structure the transactions contemplated by this Agreement as a like-kind exchange, including with a third party, under Section 1031 of the Code, the parties shall cooperate to structure such transactions as such to the greatest extent possible under the Tax Law and shall make such modifications to this Agreement as are reasonably necessary to meet the requirements of Section 1031 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder; provided that nothing in this Section 6.3 will limit either party’s ability to settle or compromise any tax dispute with a tax authority in such manner as that party determines to be appropriate. None of the representations, warranties, covenants, indemnification obligations or other agreements of the parties hereunder shall be affected by the structuring of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement as a like-kind exchange pursuant to this Section 6.3. Neither Purchaser nor Sellers shall be required to make any representations or warranties, assume any obligations, spend any out-of-pocket sum, or acquire title to any other property in connection with the structuring of the transactions as a like-kind exchange. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the provisions of this Section 6.3 shall survive the Closing without limitation. In the event of any conflict between this Section 6.3 and the terms and conditions of any agreement relating to a particular transaction intended to be used as a part of a like-kind exchange under Section 1031 of the Code, the terms and conditions of such other agreement shall control to the extent of any such conflict.

- 63 -

Section 6.4 Survival, Coordination. Any indemnification with respect to Losses covered by this Article VI shall not be subject to the limitations on indemnification in Section 8.2(b). Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the provisions of this Article VI shall survive until the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations.

Section 8.2 Indemnification by Sellers.

(a) Subject to Section 8.2(b), Sellers hereby agree that from and after the Closing, they shall, jointly and severally, indemnify, defend and hold harmless Purchaser, its Affiliates, and their respective directors, officers, shareholders, partners, members, attorneys, accountants, agents, representatives and employees (other than the Transferred Employees) and their heirs, successors and permitted assigns, each in their capacity as such (the “Purchaser Indemnified Parties”) from, against and in respect of any damages, losses, Taxes, charges, Liabilities, claims, actions, suits, proceedings, judgments, settlements, assessments, penalties, and costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and out of pocket disbursements), in each case excluding consequential, special, incidental, indirect, punitive or exemplary damages (except to the extent actually paid to a third party) (collectively, “Losses”) imposed on, sustained, incurred or suffered by, or asserted against, any of the Purchaser Indemnified Parties, whether in respect of third party claims, claims between the parties hereto, or otherwise, arising out of (i) subject to Section 8.2(b), any breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty made by Sellers, (ii) any breach of any covenant or agreement of Sellers, (iii) any appraisal or other claims of stockholders of Sellers relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, (iv) the Alternative Agreements, including the Alternative Agreement Obligations, or (v) the Excluded Liabilities and all other Liabilities of Sellers and their Affiliates that are not Assumed Liabilities.

- 66 -

(b) Except with respect to items indemnified or indemnifiable pursuant to Article VI, Sellers shall not be liable to the Purchaser Indemnified Parties for any Losses with respect to the matters contained in Section 8.2(a)(i) unless (x) for any particular Loss or group of related Losses arising out of substantially similar facts, such Loss exceeds $10,000 (such Loss of $10,000 or less being a “De Minimis Loss”), and no claim for a De Minimis Loss shall be asserted under this Section 8.2 (and no such De Minimis Loss shall be included in the calculation of the Threshold Amount provided for in clause (y) hereof) and (y) the aggregate amount of Losses incurred by all Purchaser Indemnified Parties exceeds an amount equal to $11,700,000 (the “Threshold Amount”), in which event Sellers shall be liable to the Purchaser Indemnified Parties for all Losses in excess of the Threshold Amount. Sellers’ cumulative aggregate liability for Losses with respect to the matters contained in Section 8.2(a)(i) shall not exceed an amount equal to $117,000,000 (the “Indemnification Cap”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Sellers shall indemnify the Purchaser Indemnified Parties without application of the Indemnification Cap or clause (y) above, including whether all Losses have exceeded the Threshold Amount, with respect to any Loss resulting from or relating to any alleged or actual breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty made by Sellers or any of their Affiliates pursuant to Section 3.9 with respect to the FCC Licenses, the third sentence of Section 3.6 or Section 3.18(e), and any payment made to the Purchaser Indemnified Parties in respect of such Losses shall not be counted in determining if the Threshold Amount has been satisfied or the Indemnification Cap has been reached.

Section 8.3 Indemnification by Purchaser.

(a) Subject to Section 8.3(b), Purchaser hereby agrees that from and after the Closing, it shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Sellers, their Affiliates, and their respective directors, officers, shareholders, partners, members, attorneys, accountants, agents, representatives and employees and their heirs, successors and permitted assigns, each in their capacity as such (the “Seller Indemnified Parties” and, collectively with the Purchaser Indemnified Parties, the “Indemnified Parties”) from, against and in respect of any Losses imposed on, sustained, incurred or suffered by, or asserted against, any of the Seller Indemnified Parties, whether in respect of third party claims, claims between the parties hereto, or otherwise, arising out of (i) any breach of any representation or warranty made by Purchaser, (ii) any breach of a covenant or agreement of Purchaser contained in this Agreement, or (iii) any Assumed Liabilities.

- 67 -

(b) Purchaser shall not be liable to the Seller Indemnified Parties for any Losses with respect to the matters contained in Section 8.3(a)(i) (x) for any De Minimis Loss, and no claim for a De Minimis Loss shall be asserted under this Section 8.3 (and no such De Minimis Loss shall be included in the calculation of the Threshold Amount provided for in clause (y) hereof) and (y) the aggregate amount of Losses incurred by all Seller Indemnified Parties exceeds the Threshold Amount, in which event Purchaser shall be liable to the Seller Indemnified Parties for all Losses in excess of the Threshold Amount. Purchaser’s cumulative aggregate liability for Losses with respect to the matters contained in Section 8.3(a)(i) shall not exceed an amount equal to the Indemnification Cap.

Section 8.4 Third Party Claim Indemnification Procedures. If an indemnification claim made by any Indemnified Party under this Article VIII involves a third party claim (a “Third Party Claim”), such Indemnified Party shall (a) promptly notify the indemnifying party (an “Indemnifying Party”) of all relevant information concerning the Third Party Claim known to such Indemnified Party (provided that failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party will only relieve the indemnification obligation if and to the extent such failure results in material prejudice with respect to such Third Party Claim) and (b) give the Indemnifying Party full opportunity to control the defense of such Third Party Claim (using counsel reasonably acceptable to such Indemnified Party); provided that the Indemnified Party can participate in any proceeding to defend such Third Party Claim, represented by counsel of its choosing, at its own cost and expense unless the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party are both named as parties to the proceedings and the Indemnified Party shall have reasonably concluded that representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them, in which event the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to employ one counsel to represent it. If, after notice thereof, the Indemnifying Party fails to promptly assume the defense of a Third Party Claim for which indemnification is claimed hereunder (but in any event within thirty (30) days of receiving notice of the Third Party Claim from the Indemnified Party), or, after having assumed defense of such claim, fails to diligently conduct such defense, the Indemnified Party may assume the defense thereof, and shall be indemnified for the cost and expense of such defense (to the extent such Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification hereunder). If the Indemnified Party shall have employed counsel as described in the foregoing sentences, the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel shall be included in the calculation of Losses with respect to the Third Party Claim. No Indemnified Party may be bound by any compromise or settlement of a Third Party Claim without its consent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) unless (i) the sole relief is monetary damages for which the Indemnified Party shall be fully indemnified, and (ii) there is no finding or admission of any violation of Law or rights of any person or entity. The Indemnified Party shall not compromise or settle any Third Party Claim without the Indemnifying Party’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) unless such compromise or settlement (A) does result in any indemnifiable Losses or (B) fully releases the Indemnifying Party of any Liability under this Article VIII.

- 68 -

Section 8.5 Adjustments to Losses.

(a) Taxes. The amount of any Losses for which indemnification is provided under this Article VIII shall be reduced by the amount of any net Tax benefit, if any, actually realized by the Indemnified Party or its Affiliates attributable to such Losses with respect to the year in which such Losses arose. If the amount of any Loss with respect to any indemnification claim is required to be reduced under this Section 8.5(a) after the Indemnifying Party has made payment to the Indemnified Party with respect to such Loss, the Indemnified Party shall promptly pay the Indemnifying Party cash in an amount equal to such reduction.

(b) Insurance. In calculating the amount of any Loss, the proceeds actually received by the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates under any insurance policy or pursuant to any claim, recovery, settlement or payment by or against any other Person, net of any actual costs, expenses or premiums incurred in connection with securing or obtaining such proceeds, shall be deducted.

(c) Reimbursement. If an Indemnified Party recovers an amount from a third party in respect of a Loss that is the subject of indemnification hereunder after all or a portion of such Loss has been paid by an Indemnifying Party pursuant to this Article VIII, the Indemnified Party shall promptly remit to the Indemnifying Party the excess (if any) of (i) the amount paid by the Indemnifying Party in respect of such Loss, plus the amount received from the third party in respect thereof, less (ii) the full amount of Loss.

Section 8.6 Payments. Subject to the last sentence of this Section 8.6, the Indemnifying Party shall pay all amounts payable pursuant to this Article VIII by wire transfer of immediately available funds, promptly following receipt from such Indemnified Party of a ▇▇▇▇ for a Loss that is the subject of indemnification hereunder, unless the Indemnifying Party in good faith reasonably disputes the Loss (or its obligation to provide indemnification with respect thereto), in which event it shall so notify the Seller Indemnified Party. In any event, other than in respect of amounts to be satisfied through disbursements by the Escrow Agent which shall be paid in accordance with Section 2.4, the Indemnifying Party shall pay to the Indemnified Party, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, the amount of any Loss for which it is liable hereunder no later than five (5) days following any final determination of such Loss and the Indemnifying Party’s liability therefor. A “final determination” shall exist when (a) the parties to the dispute have reached an agreement, (b) a court of competent jurisdiction shall have entered a final non-appealable order or judgment or (c) an arbitration or like panel shall have rendered a final non-appealable determination with respect to disputes the parties have agreed to submit thereto. If the Indemnified Party is a Purchaser Indemnified Party, then such payment shall be satisfied first from the Escrow Funds until the funds contained therein are exhausted or released, and second, by Purchaser’s right to seek recourse directly against Sellers.

- 69 -

Section 8.7 Characterization of Indemnification Payments. All payments made by an Indemnifying Party to an Indemnified Party in respect of any claim pursuant to Section 8.2 or 8.3 shall be treated as adjustments to the Purchase Price for Tax purposes unless otherwise required by Law.

Section 8.8 Effect of Waiver of Condition. Neither Purchaser’s nor Sellers’ right to indemnity pursuant to this Article VIII shall be adversely affected by its waiver of a condition to closing set forth in Article VII unless such party makes clear by the terms of its waiver that it is foreclosing its right to indemnity with respect to the matter that is the subject of the waiver.

Section 8.9 No Double Recovery. Notwithstanding the fact that any Person may have the right to assert claims for indemnification under or in respect of more than one provision of this Agreement (including under Section 6.1 and this Article VIII) with respect to any fact, event, condition or circumstance, no Person will be entitled to recover the amount of any Losses suffered by such Person more than once under this Agreement (including under Section 6.1 and this Article VIII) in respect of such fact, event, condition or circumstance.

Section 8.10 Exclusive Remedy. Except as otherwise specifically provided in Section 5.6(b) and Section 10.5 the parties acknowledge and agree that their respective sole and exclusive remedy for monetary damages after the Closing for any breach of this Agreement shall be pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article VIII (except that no such limitation shall apply to tort claims under applicable Law based on fraud, and this limitation shall not affect Purchaser’s rights to seek equitable remedies); provided that, notwithstanding any other provision of this Article VIII, any indemnification in respect of Taxes (including an indemnification in respect of a breach of any representation with respect to Taxes in Section 3.11) shall be dealt with in Section 6.1 and not in this Article VIII.

Section 10.5 Specific Performance. The parties acknowledge that Purchaser, on the one hand, and Sellers, on the other hand, would be irreparably damaged if the provisions of this Agreement are not performed by the other parties hereto in accordance with their specific terms and that any breach of this Agreement by a party could not be adequately compensated in all cases by monetary damages alone. Accordingly, Purchaser (in the event of such a breach by Sellers) or Sellers (in the event of such a breach by Purchaser) shall be entitled to a decree of specific performance pursuant to which Sellers or Purchaser, respectively, are ordered to affirmatively carry out their obligations under this Agreement, whether before or after the Closing, and each party hereto hereby waives any defense to the effect that a remedy at law would be an adequate remedy for such breach. Any requirements for the securing or posting of any bond by a party hereto with such equitable remedy are hereby waived. Prior to the Closing, the foregoing shall not be deemed to be or construed as a waiver or election of remedies by any party hereto, which expressly reserves any and all rights and remedies available to it at law or in equity in the event of any breach or default by Sellers or Purchaser, as applicable, under this Agreement prior to the Closing.

Section 10.6 Miscellaneous.

(a) Amendment; Waiver; Severability; Entire Agreement. No amendment, modification or discharge of this Agreement shall be valid or binding unless set forth in writing and duly executed by both parties, and no waiver hereunder shall be valid or binding unless set forth in writing and duly executed by the party against whom enforcement of the waiver is sought. Any such waiver shall constitute a waiver only with respect to the specific matter described in such writing and shall in no way impair the rights of the party granting such waiver in any other respect or at any other time. The waiver by any of the parties of a breach of or a default under any of the provisions of this Agreement, on one or more occasion, shall not be construed as a waiver of any other breach or default of a similar nature, and the failure by any of the parties, on one or more occasion, to enforce any of the provisions of this Agreement or to exercise any right or privilege hereunder shall not be construed as a waiver of any of such provisions, rights or privileges hereunder. The rights and remedies herein provided are cumulative and none is exclusive of any other, except as expressly provided herein. In the event that any one or more of the terms or provisions contained herein shall for any reason be held to be unenforceable in any respect under Law, such unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of this Agreement, and the parties will use their commercially reasonable efforts to agree upon an enforceable provision which most closely approximates the intent of the parties in entering into this Agreement. This Agreement, together with the Schedules and Exhibits, the Transition Services Agreement and the Non-Disclosure Agreement contain the entire agreement and understanding between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings relating to such subject matter.

(b) Expenses. Except as set forth in Sections 2.7(f) (Purchase Price Adjustment), 5.2 (Filings), 5.24(b) (USF Approvals), 6.1(f) (Tax Indemnification), 6.2 (Transfer Taxes) and 8.6 (Payments) and except as may otherwise be agreed in writing by the parties, all legal and other costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be paid by the party incurring such costs and expenses.

(c) Third Parties. The representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement are for the sole benefit of the parties and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, legal representatives, successors and assigns and they shall not be construed as conferring any rights or remedies on any other Persons.

- 74 -

(d) Assignment. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, neither party may assign this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other party; provided that Purchaser may, without the consent of Sellers, but subject to any necessary approval from a Governmental Authority, assign this Agreement or any rights hereunder to any of its Affiliate prior to or after the Closing if such assignment is not reasonably likely to delay Closing, but no assignment described in this sentence shall relieve the assignor of its obligations hereunder. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

(e) Headings; Interpretation. The descriptive headings herein are inserted for convenience only and do not constitute a part of this Agreement.

(f) Sellers Disclosure Letter Any item disclosed by Sellers in any Section of the Sellers Disclosure Letter shall be deemed to be disclosed for the purposes of and shall qualify each representation and warranty to which such item or its contents would be readily understood to relate without regard to whether the Section specifically references such representation or warranty and without regard to whether such representation and warranty specifically references a Section of the Sellers Disclosure Letter. No disclosure on the Sellers Disclosure Letter shall be deemed an admission as to the materiality of any item so disclosed.
