Napster Division, or those of its Subsidiaries that are included in its Napster Division or any merger, consolidation, business combination, sale of a significant amount of assets, sale of shares of capital stock, tender or exchange offer of similar transaction involving Seller or any of those Subsidiaries that are included in Seller’s Napster Division or any Excluded Asset (i) which does not involve any of the Acquired Assets and (ii) the consummation of which will in no way prevent or impair in any material respect the Transaction or impair the ability of Buyer to operate the Division in a manner consistent with its operation by Seller prior to the Closing Date.

(ii) Except as set forth in this Section 5(h), neither the board of directors of the Seller nor any committee thereof shall (A) withdraw or modify, or propose to withdraw or modify, in a manner adverse to Buyer, the approval or recommendation by such board of directors or such committee of the Transaction or this Agreement, (B) approve or recommend, or propose to approve or recommend, any Acquisition Proposal, or (C) cause the Seller to enter into any letter of intent, agreement in principle, acquisition agreement or other similar agreement (each, an “Acquisition Agreement”) with respect to any Acquisition Proposal. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the board of directors of the Seller determines in good faith, after consultation with and based in part on the advice of outside counsel, that it is required to do so in order to comply with its fiduciary duties to the Seller’s stockholders under applicable law, the board of directors of the Seller may (subject to the following sentences) (X) withdraw or modify its approval or recommendation of the Transaction and this Agreement (or decide not to recommend it before definitive proxy materials relating to any Stockholder Meeting are sent to the Seller’s stockholders) only at a time that is after the fifth business day following Buyer’s receipt of written notice advising Buyer that the board of directors of the Seller has received a Superior Proposal, specifying the material terms and conditions of such Superior Proposal and identifying the Person making such Superior Proposal or (Y) terminate this Agreement by exercising its termination right under Section 9(a)(vii).

For purpose of this Agreement, a “Superior Proposal” shall mean an Acquisition Proposal made by a third party after the Signing Date which, in the good faith judgment of the board of directors of the Seller, taking into account, to the extent deemed appropriate by the board of directors, the various legal, financial and regulatory aspects of the proposal and the Person making such proposal, (x) if accepted, is reasonably likely to be consummated, and (y) if consummated, is reasonably likely to result in a more favorable transaction than the Transaction contemplated hereunder considering, among other things, and to the extent deemed appropriate in good faith by the Board of Directors, the long-term prospects and interests of the Seller and its stockholders and other relevant constituencies.

(iii) In addition to the obligations of the Seller set forth in paragraphs (i) and (ii) of this Section 5(h), the Seller shall promptly, other than following termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9, advise Buyer orally and in writing of any request for information of a nature which would assist a potential bidder in preparing an Acquisition Proposal or of any Acquisition Proposal, the material terms and conditions of

such request or Acquisition Proposal and the identify of the Person making such request or Acquisition Proposal. The Seller will keep Buyer fully informed on a prompt and current basis of the status and details (including amendments or proposed amendments) of any such request or Acquisition Proposal.

(iv) Nothing contained in this Section 5(h) shall prohibit the Seller from taking and disclosing to its stockholders a position contemplated by Rules 14d-9 or 14e-2 promulgated under the Exchange Act or from making any disclosure to the Seller’s stockholders if, in the good faith judgment of the board of directors of the Seller, after consultation with and based in part on the advice of outside counsel, failure so to disclose would be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties to the Seller’s stockholders under applicable law; provided, however, neither the Seller, its Board of Directors nor any committee thereof shall, except as permitted by Section 5(h)(ii), withdraw or modify, or propose to withdraw or modify, its position with respect to this Agreement or the Transaction or approve or recommend, or propose to approve or recommend, an Acquisition Proposal.

With respect to the registration of the Buyer Common Stock constituting the Buyer Share Consideration, the Buyer agrees to:

(iii) cause the Resale Registration Statement and any related prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto to comply in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the SEC thereunder.

The Seller agrees that it will not effect any disposition of the Buyer Common Stock constituting the Buyer Share Consideration except as contemplated in the Resale Registration Statement or as otherwise permitted by applicable law and by this Agreement.

Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, neither party may make or assert any claim under any representation or warranty of the other Party contained herein later than eighteen months after the Closing Date, except that (i) the representations and warranties contained in Sections 3(b), 3(f), 4(b) and 4(e) shall survive indefinitely, (ii) the representations and warranties in Sections 3(l) and 3(m) shall not survive after the Closing Date, and (iii) the representations and warranties in Section 3(aa) shall survive until 60 days after the statute of limitations with respect to the matters addresses therein has expired (including all waivers or extensions thereof); and provided that any claims made or asserted by a Party within the applicable time period prescribed above shall survive such expiration until such claim is finally resolved and all obligations with respect thereto are fully satisfied. All statements contained in any officer’s certificate delivered by or on behalf of any Party hereto to this Agreement shall constitute and have the same force and effect as the representations and warranties of such party set forth herein.

(b) Indemnification Provisions for Benefit of the Buyer.

(i) (A) The Seller shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Buyer and its Affiliates from and against any and all Adverse Consequences the Buyer or any such Affiliate may suffer through and after the date of the claim for indemnification (including any Adverse Consequences the Buyer or such Affiliate may suffer after the end of any applicable survival period) resulting from, arising out of, or caused by (a) any breach of a representation or warranty of the Seller contained in this Agreement or in any other Transaction Agreement (other than the representations in Sections 3(l) and 3(m) hereof for which the Seller shall not have any indemnification obligation), (b) any breach of a covenant of the Seller contained in this Agreement or in any other Transaction Agreement (other than breaches of Section 6(k)), (c) any Liability of the Seller with respect to the Division or of the Division Subsidiaries of which Seller had Knowledge and which was not disclosed to the Buyer prior to the Closing (regardless of whether the Liability is an Assumed Liability), or (d) the occurrence or the continuation of any Seller Financial Statement Default; provided, however, that (x) the Seller shall not have any obligation to indemnify the Buyer and/or its Affiliates under this Section 8(b)(i)(A) from and against any Adverse Consequences resulting from, arising out of, relating to, or

caused by any breach (or alleged breach) or Liability of the type referred to in clauses (a), (b) and (c) above until the Buyer and/or its Affiliates have suffered Adverse Consequences by reason of all such breaches (or alleged breaches) or Liabilities in excess of a $1 million aggregate deductible (after which point the Seller will be obligated only to indemnify the Buyer from and against further such Adverse Consequences), it being acknowledged that the Seller’s obligation under this Section 8(b)(i)(A) with respect to any matters of the type referred to in clause (d) above shall not be subject to the limitation set forth in this clause (x), (y) in no event shall the total obligation of the Seller to indemnify the Buyer and its Affiliates under this Section 8(b)(i)(A) from and against Adverse Consequences exceed $15 million in the aggregate with respect to Adverse Consequences resulting from, arising out of, relating to, or caused by breaches (or alleged breaches), Liabilities or matters of the type referred to in clauses (a), (b), (c) and (d) above (other than breaches of Section 6(e)) that occur prior to the first anniversary of the Closing Date, and (z) in no event shall the total obligation of the Seller to indemnify the Buyer and its Affiliates under this Section 8(b)(i)(A) from and against Adverse Consequences exceed the Second Cap Amount with respect to Adverse Consequences resulting from, arising out of, relating to, or caused by (1) breaches (or alleged breaches) or Liabilities of the type referred to in clauses (a), (b) and (c) above (other than breaches of Section 6(e)) that occur after the first anniversary of the Closing Date and no later than 18 months after the Closing Date and/or (2) matters of the type referred to in clause (d) above that occur after the first anniversary of the Closing Date and no later than the third anniversary of the Closing Date.

(B) Without limiting the Seller’s obligations under Section 8(b)(i)(A) above (the “Base Indemnification”), if, as a result of clause (x), (y) or (z) of the proviso in the Base Indemnification, the Seller is not obligated to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Buyer and its Affiliates from and against any Adverse Consequences the Buyer or any such Affiliate may suffer through and after the date of the claim for indemnification (including any Adverse Consequences the Buyer or such Affiliate may suffer after the end of any applicable survival period) resulting from, arising out of, or caused by a breach of the representations contained in Section 3(a) or Section 3(b), then the Seller agrees that it will pursuant to this Section 8(b)(i)(B) (the “Supplemental Indemnification”) indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Buyer and its Affiliates from and against such Adverse Consequences, provided that (x) in no event shall the total obligation of the Seller to indemnify the Buyer and its Affiliates under this Section 8(b)(i)(B) from and against such Adverse Consequences exceed $15 million and (y) in no event shall the Supplemental Indemnification apply to any such Adverse Consequences resulting from, arising out of, or caused by a breach of the representations contained in Section 3(a) and Section 3(b) that occurs after the third anniversary of the Closing Date.

(ii) The Seller shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Buyer and its Affiliates from and against any and all Adverse Consequences the Buyer or any such Affiliate may suffer through and after the date of the claim for indemnification to the extent resulting from, arising out of, relating to, or caused by:

(A) any Seller Retained Liability;

(B) any Liability of Seller or any of the Division Subsidiaries for unpaid Tax Liabilities with respect to any Tax year or portion thereof ending on or before the Closing Date (or for any Tax year beginning before and ending after the closing Date to the extent allocable to the portion of such period beginning before and ending on the Closing Date), to the extent such Tax Liabilities are not reflected on the face of the Final Closing Balance Sheet (rather than in any notes thereto and excluding any reserve for deferred Taxes established to reflect timing differences between book and Tax income) and to the extent that such Tax Liabilities or the payment thereof does not create a realized reduction in Tax Liabilities to the Buyer or Selected Subsidiaries;

(C) any Liability of any of the Division Subsidiaries for the unpaid Taxes of any Person (including the Seller and its Subsidiaries) under Reg. Section 1.1502-6 (or any similar provision of state, local, or foreign law), as a transferee or successor, by Contract, or otherwise;

(D) any breach of Seller’s obligations under Section 6(k); or

(E) any stamp duty arising in connection with the transfer of Roxio UK Ltd. to the Buyer.

(iii) In the event that any Liability described in Section 8(b)(ii) is also described in Section 8(b)(i), the obligation of Seller shall be determined under Section 8(b)(ii) and shall not be subject to the limitations of Section 8(b)(i).

(c) Indemnification Provisions for Benefit of the Seller. The Buyer shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Seller from and against any and all Adverse Consequences the Seller may suffer through and after the date of the claim for indemnification resulting from, arising out of, related to, or caused by (a) any breach of a representation or warranty of the Buyer contained in this Agreement or in any other Transaction Agreement, (b) any breach of a covenant of the Buyer contained in this Agreement or in any other Transaction Agreement, (c) any Buyer Assumed Liability (except to the extent that Seller is obligated pursuant to clause (c) of Section 8(b)(i), which include the limitations set forth in clauses (x), (y) and (z) thereof, to indemnify Buyer for such liability).

(d) Matters Involving Third Parties. (i) If any third party shall notify any Party (the “Indemnified Party”) with respect to any matter (a “Third Party Claim”) which may give rise to a claim for indemnification against the other Party (the “Indemnifying Party”) under this Section 8, then the Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Indemnifying Party thereof in writing; which notice shall provide reasonable detail and specificity as to the claim or proceeding and the amount of damages sought in such claim or proceeding; provided, however, that no delay on the part of the Indemnified Party in notifying the Indemnifying Party shall relieve the Indemnifying Party from any obligation hereunder unless (and then solely to the extent) the Indemnifying Party thereby is prejudiced.

(ii) If a Third Party Claim is made against an Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in the defense thereof and, if it so chooses, to assume the defense thereof with counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party.

Should the Indemnifying Party so elect to assume the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to the Indemnified Party for any legal expenses subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof. If the Indemnifying Party assumes such defense, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate in the defense thereof and to employ counsel, at its own expense, separate from the counsel employed by the Indemnifying Party, it being understood that the Indemnifying Party shall control such defense. The Indemnifying Party shall be liable for the fees and expenses of counsel employed by the Indemnified Party for any period during which the Indemnifying Party has not assumed the defense thereof (other than during any period in which the Indemnified Party shall have failed to give notice of the Third Party Claim as provided above). If the Indemnifying Party chooses to defend or prosecute a Third Party Claim, all the indemnified parties shall cooperate in the defense or prosecution thereof. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the Indemnifying Party’s request) the provision to the Indemnifying Party of records and information that are reasonably relevant to such Third Party Claim, and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder.

(iii) Notwithstanding clause (ii) above, (x) the Indemnified Party may, by prior written notice to the Indemnifying Party, assume the defense of any Third Party Claim if the Indemnified Party shall have been advised by counsel that there are one or more legal defenses available to the Indemnified Party which are different from or in addition to those available to the Indemnifying Party, and, in the reasonable opinion of the Indemnified Party and its counsel, counsel for the Indemnifying Party could not adequately represent the interests of the Indemnified Party because such interests would be in conflict with those of the Indemnifying Party, or (y) if a Third Party claim seeks injunctive or equitable relief in addition to monetary damages for which it would be entitled to indemnification under this Agreement the Indemnified Party may, by prior written notice to the Indemnifying Party, assume the right to defend the injunctive or equitable relief claim (but not the monetary damages claims); provided, however, if the Indemnified Party assumes defense of such injunctive or equitable relief claim, the Indemnifying Party, subject to the provisions of this Section 8, shall be responsible for the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel employed by the Indemnified Party in defending, compromising or settling such claim; provided that the Indemnifying Party’s liability with respect to any settlement or compromise shall be subject to Section 8(d)(iv) below. In the event of a Third Party injunctive or equitable relief claim that would fall under both subsections (x) and (y) of this Section 8(d)(iii), subsection (y) shall control.

(iv) Whether or not the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall not admit any liability with respect to, or settle, compromise or discharge, such Third Party Claim without the Indemnifying Party’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall agree to any settlement, compromise or discharge of a Third Party Claim that the Indemnifying Party may recommend and that by its terms obligates the Indemnifying Party to pay the full amount of the liability in connection with such Third Party Claim,

and which releases the Indemnified Party completely in connection with such Third Party Claim; provided that the Indemnifying Party shall not agree, without the Indemnified Party’s consent, to the entry of any Judgment or settlement, compromise or decree that provides for injunctive or other nonmonetary relief affecting the Indemnified Party.

(e) Determination of Adverse Consequences. The Parties shall take into account the time cost of money (using the Applicable Rate as the discount rate) in determining Adverse Consequences for purposes of this Section 8. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Adverse Consequences in each case shall be net of the amount of any insurance proceeds, indemnity and contribution, after using the Applicable Rate as the discount rate, actually recovered by any Indemnified Parties. Indemnified Parties shall have a duty to mitigate Adverse Consequences with respect to any claim made under this Section 8. All indemnification payments under this Section 8 shall be deemed adjustments to the Purchase Price. In addition, the Adverse Consequences for which indemnification is being provided pursuant to this Section 8 shall be determined based on the principles of causality, sufficiency of proof and reasonable foreseeability that are customarily applied by a court in the United States in determining the damages recoverable by a party in a breach of contract action.

(f) Sole and Exclusive Remedy. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof to the contrary, the Parties agree that, absent fraud, from and after the Closing, subject only to Section 10(o), the indemnification remedies set forth in this Section 8 shall constitute the sole and exclusive remedies of the Buyer, the Seller and their Affiliates for any claims pursuant to, or arising out of or in connection with, this Agreement, the Transaction Agreements and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby.

(iii) by either the Buyer or the Seller, if any decree, permanent injunction, judgment, order or other action by any court of competent jurisdiction or any Governmental Entity preventing or prohibiting consummation of the Transaction (an “Order”) shall have become final and nonappealable;

(vi) the Seller may terminate this Agreement by giving written notice to the Buyer at any time prior to the Closing (A) in the event the Buyer has breached any material representation, warranty, or covenant contained in this Agreement in any material respect, the Seller has notified the Buyer of the breach, and the breach has continued without cure for a period of 30 days after the notice of breach or (B) if the Closing shall not have occurred on or before January 15, 2005, by reason of the failure of any condition precedent under Section 7(b) hereof (unless the failure results primarily from the Seller itself breaching any representation, warranty, or covenant contained in this Agreement); and

(vii) by the Seller, upon five (5) business days’ notice, in accordance with Section 5(h)(ii), provided it has complied with the provisions thereof and that it complies with the provisions of Section 10(k) related thereto.

(b) Effect of Termination. If any Party terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 9(a) above, all rights and obligations of the Parties hereunder shall terminate without any Liability of any Party to the other Party (except for any Liability of any Party then in breach) provided, however, that the Buyer will treat and hold as such all of the Seller Confidential Information and Buyer Confidential Information, refrain from using any of the Buyer Confidential Information, and destroy all tangible embodiments (and all copies) of the Seller Confidential Information and Buyer Confidential Information which are in its possession.

10. Miscellaneous.

(a) Press Releases and Public Announcements. No Party shall issue any press release or make any public announcement relating to the subject matter of this Agreement prior to the Closing without the prior written approval of the other Party; provided, however, that any Party may make any public disclosure it believes in good faith is required by applicable law or any listing or trading agreement concerning its publicly-traded securities (in which case the disclosing Party will use its reasonable best efforts to advise the other Party prior to making the disclosure).

(b) No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement shall not confer any rights or remedies upon any Person other than the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

(c) Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including the documents referred to herein) constitutes the entire agreement between the Parties and supersedes any prior

understandings, agreements, or representations by or between the Parties, written or oral, to the extent they have related in any way to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement amends and restates in its entirety the Asset Purchase Agreement between Buyer and Seller, dated as of August 9, 2004 (the “Original Agreement”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Exhibits and Schedules delivered in connection with the Original Agreement are deemed to apply as if delivered in connection with this Agreement, except that Exhibit A and Exhibit E attached hereto shall replace and supersede Exhibit A and Exhibit E attached to the Original Agreement.

(d) Succession and Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties named herein and their respective successors and permitted assigns. No Party may assign either this Agreement or any of its rights, interests, or obligations hereunder without the prior written approval of the other Party, which approval may be withheld in such party’s sole discretion; provided however, (i) that the Buyer may (x) assign any or all of its rights and interests hereunder to one or more of its Affiliates and (y) designate one or more of its Affiliates to perform its obligations hereunder (in any or all of which cases the Buyer nonetheless shall remain responsible for the performance of all of its obligations hereunder) and (ii) that the Seller may assign this Agreement and any or all of its rights and interests, liabilities and obligations hereunder in connection with a Change of Control of Seller (subject to compliance with Section 6(f)).

(e) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which together will constitute one and the same instrument.

(f) Headings. The section headings contained in this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

(g) Notices. All notices, requests, demands, claims, and other communications hereunder will be in writing. Any notice, request, demand, claim, or other communication hereunder shall be deemed duly given three (3) business days after it is sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, or one business day after it is sent by overnight courier, postage prepaid, in each case and addressed to the intended recipient as set forth below:

Any Party may send any notice, request, demand, claim, or other communication hereunder to the intended recipient at the address set forth above using any other means (including personal delivery, facsimile, or electronic mail), but no such notice, request, demand, claim, or other communication shall be deemed to have been duly given unless and until it actually is received by the intended recipient. Any Party may change the address to which notices, requests, demands, claims, and other communications hereunder are to be delivered by giving the other Party notice in the manner herein set forth.

(h) Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the domestic laws of the State of California without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of California or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of California.

(i) Amendments and Waivers. No amendment of any provision of this Agreement shall be valid unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Buyer and the Seller. The Seller may consent to any such amendment at any time prior to the Closing with the prior authorization of its board of directors; provided, however, that any amendment effected after the Seller stockholders have approved this Agreement will be subject to the restrictions contained in the Delaware General Corporation Law. No waiver by any Party of any default, misrepresentation, or breach of warranty or covenant hereunder, whether intentional or not, shall be deemed to extend to any prior or subsequent default, misrepresentation, or breach of warranty or covenant hereunder or affect in any way any rights arising by virtue of any prior or subsequent such occurrence.

(j) Severability. Any term or provision of this Agreement that is invalid or unenforceable in any situation in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions hereof or the validity or enforceability of the offending term or provision in any other situation or in any other jurisdiction.

(k) Expenses. Each of the Buyer, the Seller, and the Division Subsidiaries will bear his or its own costs and expenses (including legal fees and expenses) incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby; provided, however, that (i) the Seller will also bear the costs and expenses of the Division and the Division Subsidiaries (including all of their legal fees and expenses) in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby in the event that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are consummated and will bear the expenses of any accounting fees associated with the preparation, inclusion or review of financial statements included in the Resale Registration Statement or any filing of such Seller or Division financial statements in any filing with the SEC or any foreign jurisdiction as well as the cost of any review by counsel for the Seller of the Resale Registration Statement and (ii) the Seller will also bear the costs and expenses (including all legal fees and expenses) in connection with the HSR filing and the registration of the Buyer Common Stock constituting the Buyer Share Consideration, each as contemplated under Section

5 hereof. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Seller shall pay all Transfer Taxes when due, whether or not imposed on Buyer or Seller as a matter of law; provided, however that the Buyer cooperates to a commercially reasonable extent with Seller to minimize the Transfer Taxes that Seller is required to pay, including, without limitation, accepting delivery of Seller’s intangible assets that constitute part of the Acquired Assets through electronic delivery or in another manner reasonably calculated and legally permitted to minimize the incurrence of Transfer Taxes. Except for Tax Returns required by law to be prepared by Buyer, Seller shall, at its own expense, file all necessary Tax Returns and other documentation with respect to such Transfer Taxes. Buyer and Seller will, and will cause their affiliates to, join in the execution of any such Tax Returns and other documentation.

If (i) the Seller terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 9(a)(vii) following receipt by the Seller of a proposal for an Acquisition Proposal (including a Superior Proposal) or (ii) Buyer terminates this Agreement pursuant to Sections 9(iv) or 9(v)(a), then, within five business days of such termination in the case of clause (i) or clause (ii) the Seller shall pay by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the Buyer an amount equal to 3% of the Purchase Price (the “Termination Fee”), provided, that in the case of clause (ii), Seller will pay an additional amount to Buyer equal to the amount of Buyer’s reasonable costs and expenses associated with the preparation of this Agreement and reasonable fees and expenses incurred in connection with the Transaction.

(l) Construction. The Parties have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the Parties and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any Party by virtue of the authorship of any of the provisions of this Agreement. Any reference to any federal, state, local, or foreign statute or law shall be deemed also to refer to all rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, unless the context requires otherwise. The word “including” shall mean including without limitation. The Parties intend that each representation, warranty, and covenant contained herein shall have independent significance. If any Party has breached any representation, warranty, or covenant contained herein in any respect, the fact that there exists another representation, warranty, or covenant relating to the same subject matter (regardless of the relative levels of specificity) which the Party has not breached shall not detract from or mitigate the fact that the Party is in breach of the first representation, warranty, or covenant. The term “made available,”(i) prior to the Closing Date shall mean items, documents, materials and other data physically provided at the following locations; O’Melveny & ▇▇▇▇▇’ San Francisco and Menlo Park Offices and Roxio’s headquarters and (ii) on the Closing Date shall mean physically delivered to the Buyer or its representatives at a location and pursuant to procedures reasonably specified by Buyer.

(m) Disclosure Schedule. Nothing in the Disclosure Schedule shall be deemed adequate to disclose an exception to a representation or warranty made herein unless the Disclosure Schedule identifies the exception with sufficient particularity and description of the relevant facts so as to make the disclosure of such exception reasonably clear. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the mere listing (or inclusion of a copy) of a document or other item shall not be deemed adequate to disclose an exception to a representation or warranty made herein (unless the representation or warranty has to do with the existence of the document or other item itself or unless such exception is reasonably clear from its listing or inclusion on the

Disclosure Schedule). Nothing in the Disclosure Schedule constitutes an admission of any liability or obligation of Seller of any of its Subsidiaries to any third party, nor an admission against Seller’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ interest to any third party. The Disclosure Schedule contains information, descriptions and disclosures regarding Seller and its Subsidiaries only, all of which constitutes confidential information of Seller and its Subsidiaries. The Disclosure Schedule is qualified in its entirety by reference to specific provisions of this Agreement, and is not intended to expand the scope and effect of any representations, warranties or covenants of Seller provided in this Agreement. The Disclosure Schedule may include items or information that Seller is not required to disclose under this Agreement; disclosure of such information shall not affect (directly or indirectly) the interpretation of this Agreement or the scope of the disclosure obligation under this Agreement. The inclusion of any information in the Disclosure Schedule does not constitute an admission that such information is required to be disclosed, that such information is material or that any other undisclosed matter having a greater value or other significance is material or is otherwise required to be disclosed.

(n) Incorporation of Exhibits and Schedules. The Exhibits and Schedules identified in this Agreement are incorporated herein by reference and made a part hereof.

(o) Specific Performance. Each of the Parties acknowledges and agrees that the other Party would be damaged irreparably in the event any of the provisions of this Agreement are not performed in accordance with their specific terms or otherwise are breached. Accordingly, each of the Parties agrees that the other Party shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of the provisions of this Agreement and to enforce specifically this Agreement and the terms and provisions hereof in any action instituted in any court of the United States or any state thereof having jurisdiction over the Parties and the matter (subject to the provisions set forth in Section 10(p) below), in addition to any other remedy to which it may be entitled, at law or in equity.

(p) Submission to Jurisdiction. Each of the Parties submits to the jurisdiction of any state or federal court sitting in San Francisco, California in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement and agrees that all claims in respect of the action or proceeding may be heard and determined in any such court. Each Party also agrees not to bring any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement in any other court. Each of the Parties waives any defense of inconvenient forum to the maintenance of any action or proceeding so brought and waives any bond, surety, or other security that might be required of any other Party with respect thereto. Nothing in this Section 10(p), however, shall affect the right of any Party to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by law or in equity. Each Party agrees that a final judgment in any action or proceeding so brought shall be conclusive and may be enforced by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law or in equity.

(q) Tax Matters.

(i) Any agreement between the Seller and any of the Division Subsidiaries regarding allocation or payment of Taxes or amounts in lieu of Taxes shall be deemed terminated at and as of the Closing.

(ii) The Seller will be responsible for the preparation and filing of all Tax Returns for the Seller for all periods as to which Tax Returns are due after the Closing Date (including the consolidated, unitary, and combined Tax Returns for the Seller which include the operations of the Division and the Division Subsidiaries for any period ending on or before the Closing Date). The Seller will make all payments required with respect to any such Tax Return.

(iii) The Buyer will be responsible for the preparation and filing of all Tax Returns for the Division (except with respect to Division Subsidiaries which are not Selected Subsidiaries) and the Selected Subsidiaries for all periods as to which Tax Returns are due after the Closing Date (other than for Taxes with respect to periods for which the consolidated, unitary, and combined Tax Returns of the Seller will include the operations of the Division and the Division Subsidiaries). Buyer shall provide Seller with a copy of such Tax Returns for its reasonable review prior to filing. The Buyer will make all payments required with respect to any such Tax Return; provided, however, that the Seller will reimburse the Buyer concurrently therewith to the extent any payment the Buyer is making relates to the operations of any of the Division and the Selected Subsidiaries for any period ending on or before the Closing Date, to the extent such Taxes are not reflected in the reserve for Tax liability (rather than any reserve for deferred Taxes established to reflect timing differences between book and Tax income) shown on the face of the Most Recent Financial Statements (rather than in any notes thereto) as such reserve is adjusted for the passage of time through the Closing Date in accordance with the past custom and practice of Seller and the Division Subsidiaries in filing their Tax Returns.

(iv) Following the Closing, Buyer, in its sole discretion, may make elections under Code Section 338(g) with respect to one or more Selected Subsidiaries. Seller agrees to cooperate, and to cause any Division Subsidiary which is not a Selected Subsidiary to cooperate, with Buyer, as requested, to facilitate such elections.

(v) For purposes of this Agreement, in the case of any Taxes that are imposed on a periodic basis and are payable for a Tax period that includes (but does not end on) the Closing Date, the portion of such Tax which relates to the portion of such Tax period ending on the Closing Date shall (A) in the case of any Taxes other than Taxes based upon or related to income or receipts, be deemed to be the amount of such Tax for the entire Tax period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the Tax period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the entire Tax period, and (B) in the case of any tax based upon or related to income or receipts shall be deemed equal to the amount which would be payable if the relevant Tax period ended on the Closing Date.

(r) Employee Benefits Matters.

(i) On and after the Closing Date, Buyer shall provide, or shall cause the Division and the Division Subsidiaries to provide the Acquired Employees with compensation and benefit packages that substantially similar in the aggregate to those which the Buyer provides to its own similarly-situated employees; provided, however that nothing in this Agreement shall create any obligation on the part of the Buyer to continue the employment of any Acquired Employee for any period of time.

(ii) From and after the Closing, the Acquired Employees shall generally be eligible to participate in the Employee Benefit Plans maintained by the Buyer for the benefit of its employees and their beneficiaries (the “Buyer Benefit Plans”). For purposes of all Buyer Benefit Plans under which an Acquired Employee’s eligibility for benefits depends, in whole or in part, on length of service, Buyer shall make commercially reasonable efforts to credit all Acquired Employees with their prior service with Seller (including service with a predecessor employer to the extent such service was credited); provided that such service credit does not result in duplication of benefits. Subject to the consent of any applicable insurance carrier and the terms of the Buyer Benefit Plans, Buyer will use commercially reasonable efforts: (1) to credit the Acquired Employees with any deductible or co-payment amounts paid under an analogous Seller Benefit Plan (excluding office visit co-pays) in respect of the plan year in which the Closing Date occurs; and (2) to waive, to the extent waived under the applicable Seller Benefit Plans any pre-existing condition or other restriction under the Buyer Benefit Plans or any waiting period limitation that would otherwise apply to Acquired Employees under the Buyer Benefit Plans. It is understood that the Buyer reserves the right and sole discretion to change, modify, discontinue or terminate any or all of the Buyer Benefit Plans at any time following the Closing Date.
