(individually or in the aggregate) could reasonably be expected to (y)
affect the legality, validity or enforceability of this Agreement or
any of the Basic Documents or (z) have a Material Adverse Effect.
(q) Except as set forth in the Final Memorandum, no
authorization, consent, approval, license, qualification or formal
exemption from, nor any filing, declaration or registration with, any
court, governmental agency or regulatory authority or any securities
exchange is required in connection with the execution, delivery or
performance by the Company or any of the Subsidiaries (to the extent
they are a party thereto) of this Agreement, any of the Basic
Documents or any of the Transactions, except (i) as may be required
under state securities or "blue sky" laws or the laws of any foreign
jurisdiction in connection with the offer and sale of the Notes or
(ii) as would not (individually or in the aggregate) have a Material
Adverse Effect. All such authorizations, consents, approvals,
licenses, qualifications, exemptions, filings, declarations and
registrations set forth in the Final Memorandum (other than as
disclosed therein) which are required to have been obtained by the
date hereof have been obtained or made, as the case may be, and are in
full force and effect and not the subject of any pending or, to the
knowledge of the Company, threatened attack by appeal or direct
proceeding or otherwise.
(r) The Company is not and immediately after the Time of
Purchase will not be an "investment company" or a company "controlled"
by an "investment company" within the meaning of the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended.
(s) The execution and delivery of this Agreement and and the
other Basic Documents and the sale of the Notes to the Initial
Purchasers will not involve any non-exempt prohibited transaction
within the meaning of Section 406 of ERISA, or Section 4975 of the
Code on the part of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. No
Reportable Event (as defined in ERISA) has occurred during the
five-year period prior to the date on which this representation is
made or deemed made with respect to any Employee Benefit Plan (as
defined in ERISA), and each Employee Benefit Plan has complied in all
material respects with the applicable provisions of ERISA and the
Code. The present value of all benefits vested under each Employee
Benefit Plan maintained by the Company or any Commonly Controlled
Entity (as defined in ERISA) (based on the current liability, interest
rate and other assumptions used in preparation of the plan's Form 5500
Annual Report) did not,
18
-13-
as of the last annual valuation date prior to the date on which this
representation is made or deemed made, exceed the value of the assets
of such plan allocable to such accrued benefits. Neither the Company
nor any Commonly Controlled Entity has had a complete or partial
withdrawal from any Multiemployer Plan (as defined in ERISA), and
neither the Company nor any Commonly Controlled Entity would become
subject to any liability under ERISA if the Company or any such
Commonly Controlled Entity were to withdraw completely from all
Multiemployer Plans as of the valuation date most closely preceding
the date on which such representation is made or deemed made. No such
Multiemployer Plan is in reorganization or insolvent. There are no
material liabilities of the Company or any Commonly Controlled Entity
for post-retirement benefits to be provided to their current and
former employees under Plans which are welfare benefit plans (as
described in Section 3(1) of ERISA).
(t) Other than assets to be acquired in connection with the
Acquisitions, the Company and each of its Subsidiaries have good and
valid title to, or valid and enforceable leasehold interests, in, all
properties and assets identified in the Memorandum as owned or leased
by each of them which are material to the business of the Company and
its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, free and clear of all Liens,
except (i) such Liens as are described in the Final Memorandum or (ii)
Liens created in the ordinary course of business which are Permitted
Liens (as defined in the Indenture). All of the leases material to
the business of the Company and the Subsidiaries, taken as a whole,
and under which the Company or any Subsidiary holds properties
described in the Final Memorandum, are valid and binding as leased by
them, with such exceptions as are not material and do not interfere
with the use made and proposed to be made of such properties by the
Company and its Subsidiaries.
(u) No form of general solicitation or general advertising
was used by the Company or its representatives in connection with the
offer and sale of the Notes. Neither the Company nor any Person
authorized to act for it has, either directly or indirectly, sold or
offered for sale any of the Notes or any other similar security of the
Company to, or solicited any offers to buy any thereof from, or has
otherwise approached or negotiated in respect thereof with, any Person
or Persons other than with or through the Initial Purchasers; and the
Company agrees that neither it nor any Person acting on its behalf
will sell or offer for sale any Notes to, or solicit any offers to buy
any Notes from, or otherwise approach or negotiate in respect thereof
with, any Person or Persons so as thereby to bring the issuance or
sale of any of the Notes within the provisions of Section 5 of the
Act.
(v) All tax returns required to be filed by the Company or
any of its Subsidiaries in any jurisdiction (including foreign
jurisdictions) have been so filed and all taxes, assessments, fees and
other charges including, without limitation,
19
-14-
withholding taxes, penalties, and interest ("Taxes") due or claimed to
be due have been paid, other than those Taxes being contested in good
faith and those Taxes for which adequate reserves or accruals have
been established in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles, except where the failure to file such returns or to pay
such Taxes is not reasonably likely to have, singly or in the
aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect. The Company knows of no actual
or proposed additional tax assessments for any fiscal period against
the Company or any of the Subsidiaries that, individually or in the
aggregate, is reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect.
(w) The Company and its Subsidiaries are the sole and
exclusive owners or licensees of all trade names, unregistered
trademarks and service marks, brand names, patents, registered and
unregistered copyrights, registered trademarks and service marks, and
all applications for any of the foregoing, and all permits, grants and
licenses or other rights with respect thereto, the absence of which
would have or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect. Except as set forth in the Final Memorandum neither the
Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has been charged with any material
infringement of any intangible property of the character described
above or been notified or advised of any material claim of any other
Person relating to any of the intangible property which infringements
or claims (individually or in the aggregate) would have a Material
Adverse Effect.
(x) Except as set forth in the Final Memorandum, the Company
and its Subsidiaries comply with all laws, rules and regulations
(including, without limitation, all applicable environmental laws,
rules and regulations) applicable to the Company and each such
Subsidiary, and the Company and its Subsidiaries own or possess and
are operating in compliance in all material respects with the terms,
provisions, conditions, restrictions and limitations contained in all
licenses, franchises, approvals, certificates and permits (including,
without limitation, environmental permits) from all Federal, state,
territorial, foreign and local governmental and regulatory authorities
which are necessary to own or lease their respective properties and
assets and to the conduct of their respective businesses (other than
such laws, rules, regulations, licenses, franchises, approvals,
certificates or permits that are immaterial in scope or application to
the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole), including,
without limitation, licenses, franchises and approvals from the FCC
except where the failure to so comply, individually or in the
aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect. There are no citations or notices of forfeiture or other
proceedings pending or, to the best knowledge of the Company,
threatened or any basis therefor, which would lead to the revocation,
termination, suspension or non-renewal of any such license, franchise,
approval, certificate or permit except where all such revocations,
terminations, suspensions or non-renewals, individually or in the
aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect.
20
-15-
Other than as disclosed in the Final Memorandum, (i) there are no
license renewal or rate or tariff proceedings existing, pending or,
to the best knowledge of the Company, threatened against the Company
or any Guarantor that could reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect, and (ii) there are no restrictions or limitations
contained in any applicable license, franchise, approval, certificate
or permit, or, to the best knowledge of the Company, threatened or
proposed in any pending or contemplated hearing, proceeding or
procedure, that could reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect.
(y) Neither the Company nor any of its Affiliates (as defined
in Rule 501(b) of Regulation D under the Act) has directly, or through
any agent, (i) sold, offered for sale, solicited offers to buy or
otherwise negotiated in respect of, any security (as defined in the
Act) which is or will be integrated with the sale of the Notes in a
manner that would require the registration under the Act of the Notes
or (ii) engaged in any form of general solicitation or general
advertising in connection with the offering of the Notes (as those
terms are used in Regulation D under the Act) or in any manner
involving a public offering within the meaning of Section 4(2) of the
Act.
(z) The Notes, the Guarantees, the Indenture, the Note
Registration Rights Agreement and this Agreement conform in all
material respects to the descriptions thereof in the Final Memorandum.
(aa) Assuming the accuracy of each Initial Purchaser's
representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.2 hereof and the
due performance by each Initial Purchaser of the covenants and
agreements set forth in Section 3.2 hereof the offer and sale of the
Notes to the Initial Purchasers in the manner contemplated by this
Agreement and the Memorandum does not require registration under the
Act and the Indenture does not require qualification under the Trust
Indenture Act of 1939, as amended.
(ab) Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries conducts
business with the government of Cuba or any Person or affiliate
located in Cuba. In the event the Company or any of its Subsidiaries
commences engaging in business with the government of Cuba or with any
Person or affiliate located in Cuba, the Company will provide the
Florida Department of Banking and Finance notice of such business in a
form acceptable to such Department.
Section 3.2. Resale of Notes. Each of the Initial Purchasers
represents and warrants (as to itself only) that it is a "qualified
institutional buyer" as defined in Rule 144A of the Act ("QIB"). Each of the
Initial Purchasers agrees with the Company (as to itself only) that (a) it has
not and will not solicit offers for, or offer or sell, the Notes by any form of
general solicitation or general advertising (as those terms are used in
21
-16-
Regulation D under the Act) or in any manner involving a public offering within
the meaning of Section 4(2) of the Act; and (b) it has and will solicit offers
for the Notes only from, and will offer the Notes only to (A) in the case of
offers inside the United States, (i) Persons whom the Initial Purchasers
reasonably believe to be QIBs or, if any such Person is buying for one or more
institutional accounts for which such Person is acting as fiduciary or agent,
only when such Person has represented to the Initial Purchasers that each such
account is a QIB, to whom notice has been given that such sale or delivery is
being made in reliance on Rule 144A, and, in each case, in transactions under
Rule 144A or (ii) a limited number of other institutional investors reasonably
believed by the Initial Purchasers to be "Accredited Investors" (as defined in
Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) of the Act) that, prior to their purchase of
the Notes, deliver to the Initial Purchasers a letter containing the
representations and agreements set forth in Annex A to the Final Memorandum and
(B) in the case of offers outside the United States, to Persons other than U.S.
Persons ("foreign purchasers," which term shall include dealers or other
professional fiduciaries in the United States acting on a discretionary basis
for foreign beneficial owners (other than an estate or trust)); provided,
however, that, in the case of this clause (B), in purchasing such Notes such
Persons are deemed to have represented and agreed as provided under the caption
"Transfer Restrictions" contained in the Final Memorandum.

for a reasonable period of time prior to the proposed amendment or
supplement and as to which the Initial Purchasers shall not have given
their consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The

arranging for the qualification of the Notes for offering and sale
under the securities or "Blue Sky" laws of such jurisdictions as the
Initial Purchasers may designate and will continue such qualifications
in effect for as long as may be reasonably necessary to complete the
resale of the Notes; provided, however, that in connection therewith,
the Company shall not be required to qualify as a foreign corporation
or to execute a general consent to service of process in any
jurisdiction or subject itself to taxation in excess of a nominal
dollar amount in any such jurisdiction where it is not then so
subject.
(c) If, at any time prior to the completion of the
distribution by the Initial Purchasers of the Notes or the Private
Exchange Notes, any event occurs or information becomes known as a
result of which the Final Memorandum as then amended or supplemented
would include any untrue statement of a material fact, or omit to
state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the
light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading,
or if for any other reason it is necessary at any time to amend or
supplement the Final Memorandum to comply with applicable law, the
Company will promptly notify the Initial Purchasers thereof (who
thereafter will not use such Final Memorandum until appropriately
amended or supplemented) and will prepare, at the expense of the
Company, an amendment or supplement to the Final Memorandum that
corrects such statement or omission or effects such compliance.

respect of any "security" (as defined in the Act) which could be

Subsidiaries to, solicit any offer to buy or offer to sell the Notes

(as those terms are used in Regulation D under the Act) or in any

ARTICLE VII
INDEMNITY
Section 7.1. Indemnity.
(a) Indemnification by the Company and the Guarantors. The
Company and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, agree and covenant to hold
harmless and indemnify each of the Initial Purchasers and any Affiliates
thereof (including any director, officer, employee, agent or controlling Person
of any of the foregoing) from and against any losses, claims, damages,
liabilities and expenses (including expenses of investigation) to which such
Initial Purchaser and its Affiliates may become subject arising out of or based
upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact
contained in the Memorandum and any amendments or supplements thereto, the
Basic Documents, any documents filed with the Commission or any State
Commission (collectively, the "Offering Materials") or arising out of or based
upon the omission or alleged omission to state in any of the Offering Materials
a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading; provided, however, that the Company and the
Guarantors shall not be liable under this paragraph (a) to the extent that such
losses, claims, damages or liabilities arose out of or are based upon an untrue
statement or omission made in any of the documents referred to in this
paragraph (a) in reliance upon and in conformity with the information relating
to the Initial Purchasers furnished in writing by such Initial Purchasers for
inclusion therein; provided, further, that the Company and the Guarantors shall
not be liable under this paragraph (a) to the extent that such losses, claims,
damages or liabilities arose out of or are based upon an untrue statement or
omission made in any Memorandum that is corrected in the Final Memorandum (or
any amendment or supplement thereto) if the person asserting such loss, claim,
damage or liability purchased Notes from an Initial Purchaser in reliance on
such Memorandum but was not given the Final Memorandum (or any amendment or
supplement thereto) on or prior to the confirmation of the sale of such Notes.
The Company and the Guarantors further agree to reimburse each Initial
Purchaser for any reasonable legal and other expenses as they are incurred by
it in connection with investigating, preparing to defend or defending any
lawsuits, claims or other proceedings or investigations arising in any manner
out of or in connection with such Person being an Initial Purchaser; provided
that if the Company or the Guarantors reimburse an Initial Purchaser hereunder
for any expenses incurred in connection with a lawsuit, claim or other
proceeding for which indemnification is sought, such Initial Purchaser hereby
agrees to refund such reimbursement of expenses to the extent that the losses,
claims, damages or liabilities arise out of or are based upon an untrue
statement or omission made in any of the documents referred to in this
paragraph (a) in reliance upon and in conformity with the information relating
to the Initial Purchasers furnished in writing by such Initial Purchasers for
inclusion therein. The Company and the Guarantors further agree that the
indemnification, contribution and reimbursement commitments set forth in this
Article VII
28
-23-
shall apply whether or not an Initial Purchaser is a formal party to any such
lawsuits, claims or other proceedings. The indemnity, contribution and expense
reimbursement obligations of the Company and the Guarantors under this Article
VII shall be in addition to any liability the Company may otherwise have.
(b) Indemnification by the Initial Purchasers. Each of the
Initial Purchasers agrees and covenants, severally and not jointly, to hold
harmless and indemnify the Company and the Guarantors and any Affiliates
thereof (including any director, officer, employee, agent or controlling Person
of any of the foregoing) from and against any losses, claims, damages,
liabilities and expenses insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities
or expenses arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement of any material
fact contained in the Offering Materials, or upon the omission to state therein
a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the
extent, that such untrue statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in
conformity with the information relating to such Initial Purchaser furnished in
writing by such Initial Purchaser for inclusion therein. The indemnity,
contribution and expense reimbursement obligations of the Initial Purchasers
under this Article VII shall be in addition to any liability the Initial
Purchasers may otherwise have.
(c) Procedure. If any Person shall be entitled to indemnity
hereunder (each an "Indemnified Party"), such Indemnified Party shall give
prompt written notice to the party or parties from which such indemnity is
sought (each an "Indemnifying Party") of the commencement of any action, suit,
investigation or proceeding, governmental or otherwise (a "Proceeding"), with
respect to which such Indemnified Party seeks indemnification or contribution
pursuant hereto; provided, however, that the failure so to notify the
Indemnifying Parties shall not relieve the Indemnifying Parties from any
obligation or liability except to the extent that the Indemnifying Parties have
been prejudiced materially by such failure. The Indemnifying Parties shall
have the right, exercisable by giving written notice to an Indemnified Party
promptly after the receipt of written notice from such Indemnified Party of
such Proceeding, to assume, at the Indemnifying Parties' expense, the defense
of any such Proceeding, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such
Indemnified Party; provided, however, that an Indemnified Party or parties (if
more than one such Indemnified Party is named in any Proceeding) shall have the
right to employ separate counsel in any such Proceeding and to participate in
the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the
expense of such Indemnified Party or parties unless: (1) the Indemnifying
Parties agree to pay such fees and expenses; or (2) the Indemnifying Parties
fail promptly to assume the defense of such Proceeding or fail to employ
counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party or parties; or (3)
the named parties to any such Proceeding (including any impleaded parties)
include both such Indemnified Party or parties and the Indemnifying Party or an
Affiliate of the Indemnifying Party and such Indemnified Parties, and the
Indemnified Parties shall have been advised in writing by counsel that there
may be one or more legal
29
-24-
defenses available to such Indemnified Party or parties that are different from
or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Parties, in which case, if
such Indemnified Party or parties notifies the Indemnifying Parties in writing
that it elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the Indemnifying
Parties, the Indemnifying Parties shall not have the right to assume the
defense thereof and such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnifying
Parties, it being understood, however, that, unless there exists a conflict
among Indemnified Parties, the Indemnifying Parties shall not, in connection
with any one such Proceeding or separate but substantially similar or related
Proceedings in the same jurisdiction, arising out of the same general
allegations or circumstances, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than
one separate firm of attorneys (together with appropriate local counsel) at any
time for such Indemnified Party or parties, or for fees and expenses that are
not reasonable. No Indemnified Party or parties will settle any Proceeding
without the consent of the Indemnifying Party or parties (but such consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld). No Indemnifying Party shall, without the
prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, effect any settlement of any
pending or threatened Proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Party is
or could have been or a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by
such Indemnified Party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional
release of such Indemnified Party from all liability or claims that are the
subject of such Proceeding.
Section 7.2. Contribution. If for any reason the
indemnification provided for in Section 7.1 of this Agreement is unavailable to
an Indemnified Party, or insufficient to hold it harmless, in respect of any
losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to therein, then each
applicable Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party,
shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a
result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities in such proportion as is
appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits received by the
Indemnifying Party on the one hand and the Indemnified Party on the other, but
also the relative fault of the Indemnifying and Indemnified Parties in
connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses,
claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable
considerations. The relative benefits received by the Indemnifying and
Indemnified Parties shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total
proceeds from the offering of the Notes (before deducting expenses) received by
the Company bear to the total discounts and commissions received by each
Initial Purchaser. The relative fault of the Indemnifying and Indemnified
Parties shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the
untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or
alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by
the Indemnifying or Indemnified Parties and the parties' relative intent,
knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such
statement or omission. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of
the losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to above shall be deemed
to include any legal or other fees or expenses incurred by such party in
connection with investigating or defending any such claim.

-25-
The Company and each of the Initial Purchasers agree that it
would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to the immediately
preceding paragraph were determined pro rata or per capita or by any other
method of allocation which does not take into account the equitable
considerations referred to in such paragraph. Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Section 7.2, no Initial Purchaser shall be obligated to make
contributions hereunder that in the aggregate exceed the total discounts,
commissions and other compensation received by such Initial Purchaser under
this Agreement, less the aggregate amount of any damages that such Initial
Purchaser has otherwise been required to pay by reason of the untrue or alleged
untrue statements or the omissions or alleged omissions to state a material
fact. No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of
Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who
was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.
Section 7.3. Note Registration Rights Agreement.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article 7, the indemnification
and contribution provisions of the Note Registration Rights Agreement shall
govern any claim with respect thereto.
ARTICLE VIII
MISCELLANEOUS
Section 8.1. Survival of Provisions. The representations,
warranties and covenants of the Company, its officers and the Initial
Purchasers made herein, the indemnity and contribution agreements contained
herein and each of the provisions of Articles V, VII and VIII shall remain
operative and in full force and effect regardless of (a) any investigation made
by or on behalf of the Company, any Initial Purchaser or any Indemnified Party,
(b) acceptance of any of the Notes and payment therefor, (c) any termination of
this Agreement, or (d) disposition of the Notes by the Initial Purchasers
whether by redemption, exchange, sale or otherwise.
Section 8.2. Termination. 1. This Agreement may be terminated
in the sole discretion of the Initial Purchasers by notice to the Company given
prior to the Time of Purchase in the event that the Company shall have failed,
refused or been unable to perform all obligations and satisfy all conditions on
its part to be performed or satisfied hereunder at or prior thereto or, if at
or prior to the Closing:
(i) the Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall have
sustained any loss or interference with respect to its businesses or
properties from fire, flood, hurricane, accident or other calamity,

dispute, slow down or work stoppage or any legal or governmental
proceeding, which loss or interference, in the sole judgment of the
Initial Purchasers, has had or has a Material Adverse Effect, or there
shall have been, in the sole judgment of the Initial Purchasers, any
event or development
31
-26-
that, individually or in the aggregate, has or could be reasonably
likely to have a Material Adverse Effect (including without limitation
a change in control of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries), except
in each case as described in the Final Memorandum (exclusive of any
amendment or supplement thereto);
(ii) trading in securities of the Company or in securities
generally on the New York Stock Exchange, American Stock Exchange or
the Nasdaq National Market shall have been suspended or minimum or
maximum prices shall have been established on any such exchange or
market;
(iii) a banking moratorium shall have been declared by New
York or United States authorities;
(iv) there shall have been (A) an outbreak or escalation of
hostilities between the United States and any foreign power, or (B) an

involving the United States or any other national or international
calamity or emergency, or (C) any material change in the financial
markets of the United States which, in the case of (A), (B) or (C)
above and in the sole judgment of the Initial Purchasers, makes it
impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the public offering or
the delivery of the Notes as contemplated by the Final Memorandum; or
(v) any securities of the Company shall have been downgraded
or placed on any "watch list" for possible downgrading by any
nationally recognized statistical rating organization.
(vi) Termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Section
8.2 shall be without liability of any party to any other party except
as provided in Section 8.1 hereof.
Section 8.3. No Waiver; Modifications in Writing. No failure
or delay on the part of the Company or any Initial Purchaser in exercising any
right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall
any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or remedy preclude any
other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or
remedy. The remedies provided for herein are cumulative and are not exclusive
of any remedies that may be available to the Company or any Initial Purchaser
at law or in equity or otherwise. No waiver of or consent to any departure by
the Company from any provision of this Agreement shall be effective unless
signed in writing by the party entitled to the benefit thereof, provided that
notice of any such waiver shall be given to each party hereto as set forth
below. Except as otherwise provided herein, no amendment, modification or
termination of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective unless signed
in writing by or on behalf of each of the Company and each Initial Purchaser.
Any amendment, supplement or modification of or to any
32
-27-
provision of this Agreement, any waiver of any provision of this Agreement, and
any consent to any departure by the Company from the terms of any provision of
this Agreement, shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the
specific purpose for which made or given. Except where notice is specifically

or other circumstances.
