None of the SEC Documents filed prior to the date hereof when filed, after giving effect to any amendments and supplements thereto filed prior to the date hereof, contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The financial statements of the Company included in the SEC Documents filed prior to the date hereof comply as to form in all material respect with the applicable accounting requirements and with the published rules and regulations of the SEC with respect thereto, have been prepared in accordance with GAAP during the period involved (except as may be indicated in the notes thereto or, in the case of the unaudited statements, as permitted by Form 10-Q of the SEC, or for normal year-end adjustments) and fairly present in all material respects the consolidated financial position of the Company and its consolidated Subsidiaries as at the dates thereof and the consolidated results of their operations and cash flows for the periods then ended. Except as set forth in Schedule 4.01(f) and except as set forth in the SEC Documents (including any item accounted for in the financial statements contained in the SEC Documents or set forth in the notes thereto), as of February 2, 2008, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries had, and from such date until the date hereof neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has incurred, any claims, liabilities or obligations of any nature (whether accrued, absolute, contingent or otherwise) which, individually or in the aggregate, would have a Material Adverse Effect (other than claims, liabilities or obligations contemplated by this Agreement or the Ancillary Documents or expressly permitted to be incurred pursuant to this Agreement or the Ancillary Documents). In addition, from February 2, 2008 until the date hereof, there has not been any declaration, setting aside or payment of a dividend or other distribution with respect to shares of capital stock of the Company or any material change in accounting methods or practices by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

Except as set forth on Schedule 4.01(g), there are no audits known by the Company to be pending or contemplated with respect to the Company’s Tax Returns. Neither the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) nor any other taxing authority has asserted any claim for Taxes, or to the actual knowledge of the executive officers of the Company, is threatening to assert any claims for Taxes, which claims, individually or in the aggregate, are reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect. The Company and each of its Subsidiaries have withheld or collected and paid over to the appropriate governmental authorities (or are properly holding for such payment) all Taxes required by law to be withheld or collected, except for amounts that are not reasonably likely, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect. There are no liens for Taxes upon the assets of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (other than liens for Taxes that are not yet due or that are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings), except for liens that are not reasonably likely, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(a) Subject to the provisions of Section 8.08(d), the Company agrees to indemnify and save harmless the Purchaser and each of the respective partners, officers, directors, employees, agents and Affiliates of the Purchaser in their respective capacities as such (the “Purchaser Indemnitees”), from and against any and all actions, suits, claims, proceedings, costs, damages, judgments, amounts paid in settlement (subject to Section 8.08(b)) and expenses (including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements) (collectively, “Losses”), relating to or arising out of any inaccuracy in or breach of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements made by the Company herein other than any inaccuracy or breach of any representation or warranty that constitutes an Excluded Breach.

     (b) A Purchaser Indemnitee shall give written notice to the Company of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification promptly after the discovery by such party of any matters giving rise to a claim for indemnification; provided that the failure of any Purchaser Indemnitee to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the Company of its obligations under this Section 8.08 unless and to the extent that the Company shall have been materially prejudiced by the failure of such Purchaser Indemnitee to so notify the Company. In case any such action, suit, claim or proceeding is brought against a Purchaser Indemnitee, the Company shall be entitled to participate in the defense thereof and, to the extent that it may wish, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Purchaser, and after notice from the Company of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the Company will not be liable to such Purchaser Indemnitee under this Section 8.08 for any legal or other expense subsequently incurred by such Purchaser Indemnitee in connection with the defense thereof; provided, however, that (i) if the Company shall elect not to assume the defense of such claim or action or (ii) if outside legal counsel to the Purchaser Indemnitee reasonably determines that there maybe a conflict between the positions of the Company and of the Purchaser Indemnitee in defending such claim or action, then separate counsel shall be entitled to participate in and conduct the defense, and the Company shall be liable for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Purchaser Indemnitee in connection with the defense (but only with respect to one such separate counsel). The Company shall not be liable for any settlement of any action, suit, claim or proceeding effected without its written consent; provided, however, that the Company shall not unreasonably withhold, delay or condition its consent. The Company further agrees that it will not, without the Purchaser Indemnitee’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), settle or compromise any claim or consent to entry of any judgment in respect thereof in any pending or threatened action, suit, claim or proceeding in respect of which indemnification may be sought hereunder unless such settlement or compromise includes an unconditional release of the Purchaser and each other Purchaser Indemnitee from all liability arising out of such action, suit, claim or proceeding.

     (c) The indemnification provided for in this Section 8.08 shall be the exclusive post-Closing remedy available to the Purchaser Indemnitees with respect to any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty made by the Company in this Agreement; provided that nothing herein shall prevent the Purchaser Indemnitees from pursuing any remedies legally available for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation. Any payment made pursuant to this Section 8.08 shall be treated as an adjustment to the purchase price.

     (d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company shall only indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser Indemnitees under Section 8.08(a) with respect to any Loss relating to or arising out of any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty made by the Company if, and only if, such Loss, together with the aggregate of all other Losses relating to or arising out of any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty made by the Company shall exceed $500,000, whereupon the Company shall be liable for all such Losses up to $40,900,000.

               Section 8.09. Indemnification by the Purchaser. (a) The Purchaser agrees to indemnify and save harmless the Company and each of the respective partners, officers, directors, employees, agents and Affiliates of the Company in their respective capacities as such

     (b) A Company Indemnitee shall give written notice to Purchaser of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification promptly after the discovery by such party of any matters giving rise to a claim for indemnification; provided that the failure of any Company Indemnitee to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve Purchaser of its obligations under this Section 8.09 unless and to the extent that Purchaser shall have been materially prejudiced by the failure of such Company Indemnitee to so notify the Purchaser. In case any such action, suit, claim or proceeding is brought against a Company Indemnitee, the Purchaser shall be entitled to participate in the defense thereof and, to the extent that it may wish, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company, and after notice from the Purchaser of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the Purchaser will not be liable to such Company Indemnitee under this Section 8.09 for any legal or other expense subsequently incurred by such Company Indemnitee in connection with the defense thereof; provided, however, that (i) if the Purchaser shall elect not to assume the defense of such claim or action or (ii) if outside legal counsel to the Company Indemnitee reasonably determines that there may be a conflict between the positions of the Purchaser and of the Company Indemnitee in defending such claim or action, then separate counsel shall be entitled to participate in and conduct the defense, and the Purchaser shall be liable for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company Indemnitee in connection with the defense (but only with respect to one such separate counsel). The Purchaser shall not be liable for any settlement of any action, suit, claim or proceeding effected without its written consent; provided, however, that the Purchaser shall not unreasonably withhold, delay or condition its consent. The Purchaser further agrees that it will not, without the Company Indemnitee’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), settle or compromise any claim or consent to entry of any judgment in respect thereof in any pending or threatened action, suit, claim or proceeding in respect of which indemnification may be sought hereunder unless such settlement or compromise includes an unconditional release of the Company and each other Company Indemnitee from all liability arising out of such action, suit, claim or proceeding.

     (c) The indemnification provided for in this Section 8.09 shall be the exclusive post-Closing remedy available to the Company Indemnitees with respect to any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty made by Purchaser in this Agreement; provided that nothing herein shall prevent the Company Indemnitees from pursuing any remedies legally available for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation. Any payment made pursuant to this Section 8.09 shall be treated as an adjustment to the purchase price.

               Section 8.10. Indemnification by NBC. (a) NBC agrees to indemnify and save harmless the Company Indemnitees from and against any and all Losses relating to or arising out of any inaccuracy in or breach of the representations, warranties covenants or agreements made by NBC herein.

     (b) A Company Indemnitee shall give written notice to NBC of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification promptly after the discovery by such party of any

matters giving rise to a claim for indemnification; provided that the failure of any Company Indemnitee to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve NBC of its obligations under this Section 8.10 unless and to the extent that NBC shall have been materially prejudiced by the failure of such Company Indemnitee to so notify NBC. In case any such action, suit, claim or proceeding is brought against a Company Indemnitee, NBC shall be entitled to participate in the defense thereof and, to the extent that it may wish, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company, and after notice from NBC of its election so to assume the defense thereof, NBC will not be liable to such Company Indemnitee under this Section 8.10 for any legal or other expense subsequently incurred by such Company Indemnitee in connection with the defense thereof; provided, however, that (i) if NBC shall elect not to assume the defense of such claim or action or (ii) if outside legal counsel to the Company Indemnitee reasonably determines that there may be a conflict between the positions of NBC and of the Company Indemnitee in defending such claim or action, then separate counsel shall be entitled to participate in and conduct the defense, and NBC shall be liable for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company Indemnitee in connection with the defense (but only with respect to one such separate counsel). NBC shall not be liable for any settlement of any action, suit, claim or proceeding effected without its written consent; provided, however, that NBC shall not unreasonably withhold, delay or condition its consent. NBC further agrees that it will not, without the Company Indemnitee’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), settle or compromise any claim or consent to entry of any judgment in respect thereof in any pending or threatened action, suit, claim or proceeding in respect of which indemnification may be sought hereunder unless such settlement or compromise includes an unconditional release of the Company and each other Company Indemnitee from all liability arising out of such action, suit, claim or proceeding.

     (c) The indemnification provided for in this Section 8.10 shall be the exclusive post-Closing remedy available to the Company Indemnitees with respect to any inaccuracy in or breach of any representation or warranty made by NBC in Section 4.03 of this Agreement; provided that nothing herein shall prevent the Company Indemnitees from pursuing any remedies legally available for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation. Any payment made pursuant to this Section 8.10 shall be treated as an adjustment to the purchase price.

               Section 8.11. Successors and Assigns. Subject to applicable law and the following sentence, the Purchaser may assign its rights under this Agreement in whole or in part only to any Affiliate of the Purchaser, but no such assignment shall relieve the Purchaser of its obligations hereunder. The Purchaser shall not assign any rights under this Agreement to any Affiliate if (a) such assignment would cause any representation or warranty of the Purchaser to become materially untrue or incorrect, (b) such Affiliate does not expressly assume pursuant to a document in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company all of the obligations of the Purchaser associated with the rights proposed to be assigned or (c) such assignment would materially delay or impair consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Ancillary Documents. The Company may not assign any of its rights or delegate any of its duties under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Purchaser. Any purported assignment in violation of this Section shall be void.

               Section 8.12. Arbitration. Any controversy, dispute or claim arising out of, in connection with or in relation to the interpretation, performance or breach of this Agreement, shall be determined, at the request of any party, by arbitration in a city mutually agreeable to the parties to such controversy, dispute or claim, or, failing such agreement, in New York, New York or Minneapolis, Minnesota, before and in accordance with the then-existing Rules for Commercial Arbitration of the American Arbitration Association, and any judgment or award rendered by the arbitrator will be final, binding and unappealable and judgment may be entered by any state or Federal court having jurisdiction thereof. The pre-trial discovery procedures of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure shall apply to any arbitration under this Section 8.12. Any controversy concerning whether a dispute is an arbitrable dispute or as to the interpretation or enforceability of this Section 8.12 shall be determined by the arbitrator. The arbitrator shall be a retired or former United States District Judge or other person acceptable to each of the parties, provided such individual has substantial professional experience with regard to corporate or partnership legal matters. The parties intend that this agreement to arbitrate be valid, enforceable and irrevocable.

               Section 8.13. Specific Performance. The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event any provision of this Agreement was 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 and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity.
