- 56 -
42185384v.30


the “USVI Conditions Precedent”), and it is reasonably likely that the receipt of the Communications Regulatory Authority Consents necessary to transfer control of STM and/or BVI will materially delay Closing, then the parties shall cooperate and use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to restructure the transaction contemplated hereby to facilitate a timely Closing (the “Alternative Transaction”).

Section 8.06     Disclosure Generally. The Schedules have been arranged, for purposes of convenience only, as separately titled Schedules corresponding to the Sections of this Agreement. Any information set forth in any Schedule or incorporated in any Section of this Agreement shall be considered to have been set forth in each other Schedule only to the extent the relevance of such information is reasonably apparent on the face of such Schedule. The specification of any dollar amount in the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or the inclusion of any specific item in the Schedules is not intended to imply that such amounts, or higher or lower amounts, or the items so included or other items, are or are not required to be disclosed or are within or outside of the ordinary course of business. The information contained in the Schedules is disclosed solely for the purposes of this Agreement, and no information contained therein shall be deemed to be an admission by any party hereto to any third party of any matter whatsoever, including of any violation of Applicable Law or breach of any agreement.

- 57 -
42185384v.30


Date shall be deemed to be the amount of such Taxes for the entire period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in the entire period.
Section 8.08     Tax Returns. Parent shall be responsible for preparing any Tax Returns with respect to the Company and the Seller Entities for any taxable year that ends on or prior to the Closing Date. All such Tax Returns shall be prepared in accordance with past practice and custom of the Company and the Seller Entities. The Buyer shall be responsible for preparing any Tax Returns with respect to the Company and the Seller Entities for any Straddle Periods and for taxable years beginning and ending after the Closing Date. For any Tax Return filed by Parent after the Closing Date, Parent shall make such Tax Returns available for review by the Buyer no less than 15 days in advance of the due date for filing such Tax Returns, and shall cause any reasonable comments of the Buyer to be reflected in such Tax Return, and Buyer and Parent shall work together to resolve any disagreement regarding the Tax Returns; provided, however, that if any disagreements are not resolved prior to the due date of a Tax Return, such Tax Return shall be filed as prepared by Parent and such disagreement shall be resolved by the Firm and any determination of the Firm will be final. Parent shall pay to Buyer on or before the due date of such Tax Return any Tax Liability shown as due thereon, but only to the extent such Tax Liability exceeds the amount of such Tax Liability included in the determination of Net Working Capital and taken into account as an adjustment to the purchase price hereunder. For all Straddle Period Tax Returns, Buyer shall make such Tax Returns available to Parent no less than 15 days in advance of the due for filing such Tax Returns, together with a statement showing the computation of the Tax Liability of the Company or Seller Entities (as the case may be) for the portion of the Straddle Period ending on or before the Closing Date (the “Pre-Closing Tax Period”) and for the portion of the Straddle Period ending after the Closing Date (the “Statement”). Buyer shall cause any reasonable comments of Parent to be reflected in such Tax Return. Parent shall pay to Buyer on or before the due date of the Straddle Period Tax Return any Tax Liability attributable to the Pre-Closing Tax Period reflected on the Statement to Buyer, but only to the extent such Tax Liability for the Pre-Closing Tax Period exceeds the amount of such Tax Liability included in the determination of Net Working Capital and taken into account as an adjustment to the purchase price hereunder. In the event of any disagreement between the Buyer and Parent regarding such Tax Returns or the Statement, such disagreement shall be resolved by the Firm and any such determination by the Firm shall be conclusive and final. The fees and expenses of the Firm shall be borne equally by the Buyer and Parent. Unless otherwise required by Applicable Law, Buyer shall not amend any Tax Return of the Seller Entities or the Company for any taxable period ending on or prior to the Closing Date or amend or revoke any Tax elections of the Seller Entities or the Company if such amendment or revocation would impact the Tax Liability of the Seller Entities or the Company for any such taxable periods.
Section 8.09     Allocation Statement. Within 90 days after the Closing, Parent shall deliver to the Buyer a statement (the “Allocation Statement”) allocating the consideration paid by the Buyer pursuant to this Agreement among the Company’s assets in accordance with Section 1060 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder (the “Section 1060 Allocation”). If, within 30 days after delivery of the Allocation Statement, the Buyer notifies Parent in writing that the Buyer objects to the allocation set forth in the Allocation Statement, Parent and the Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to resolve such dispute within 20 days. In the event the Buyer and

- 58 -
42185384v.30


Parent are unable to resolve such dispute within 20 days, the Buyer and Parent shall file their Tax Returns in accordance with their own determinations as to the correct allocation. The parties agree to amend the Section 1060 Allocation as necessary to reflect any adjustments in consideration agreed upon, or payments made, after the Closing Date. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 8.09, the Buyer and Parent further agree to file, and to cause their respective Affiliates to file, their income tax returns and all other Tax Returns and necessary forms in such a manner as to reflect the allocation of the consideration as determined in accordance with this Section 8.09, provided, however, nothing herein shall prevent the Buyer or Parent, as the case may be, from settling any proposed deficiency or adjustment by any Governmental Authority based on the Allocation Statement and neither the Buyer nor Parent will be required to litigate any proposed adjustment by any Governmental Authority challenging such Allocation Statement. Any refund received by the Seller Entities for periods prior to the Closing Date or any portion of a Straddle Period prior to the Closing Date shall be paid to Parent, except to the extent such refund was taken into account as an adjustment to the Purchase Price hereunder.
Section 8.10     Asset Purchase Reporting. For U.S. federal Income Tax (and state, local and non-U.S. tax purposes, as applicable), Parent and the Buyer agree to report the Buyer’s purchase of the Membership Interest as the purchase of the assets and liabilities of the Company.

42185384v.30


provisions of state, local or foreign Applicable Tax Laws), or as a successor, transferee or otherwise (the “Tax Indemnity”).
(b)    Subject to the other provisions and limitations of this Article 11, after the Closing the Buyer and Buyer Parent shall, jointly and severally, indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Parent and its Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, members, managers, shareholders, employees, agents and representatives (the “Seller Indemnified Parties”) from, against and in respect of any Loss which the Seller Indemnified Party suffers as a result of or arising from:
(i)    any breach of any representation or warranty made by the Buyer and Buyer Parent in this Agreement; and
(ii)    any breach of any covenant or agreement of the Buyer or Buyer Parent set forth in this Agreement.
Section 11.03     Limitations. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary:
(a)    Parent, on the one hand, and Buyer and Buyer Parent, on the other hand, as applicable, will not be required to indemnify any Person under Section 11.02(a)(i) or Section 11.02(b)(i), respectively, with respect to any Losses unless and until the individual Loss, together with all other Losses, exceeds $1,450,000 (the “Deductible”), and in such event the Parent, on the one hand, or Buyer and Buyer Parent, on the other hand, as applicable, will be responsible for only those indemnifiable Losses in excess of those counted towards the Deductible;
(b)    the aggregate Liability of the Parent under Section 11.02(a)(i), or Buyer and Buyer Parent under Section 11.02(b)(i), respectively, for all Losses (other than Losses arising out of a breach of any Fundamental Representation) will not exceed an amount equal to $36,250,000;
(c)    without limiting the foregoing, the limitations set forth in this Section 11.03 will also not apply to claims based upon intentional or willful misrepresentation of facts that constitutes common law fraud under Applicable Laws; and
(d)    the Buyer Indemnified Parties shall not be entitled to seek indemnification from Parent with respect to any Losses suffered as a direct result of any election by the Buyer to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement prior to the last date on which a Communications Regulatory Authority Consent becomes a Final Order.
Section 11.04     Indemnification Procedure as to Third Party Claims.
(a)    Promptly after the assertion by any third party of any claim (a “Third Party Claim”) that results, or might upon the resolution of such Third Party Claim result in, Losses for which any Person entitled to indemnification under Section 11.02 (the “Indemnitee”) is entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Agreement, such Indemnitee shall promptly provide notice of such Third Party Claim to the parties from whom such indemnification could be sought (the “Indemnitors”) (provided that failure to so notify the Indemnitors will only relieve the

- 66 -
42185384v.30


indemnification obligation if and to the extent such failure results in material prejudice with respect to such Third Party Claim) and prior to the fifteen (15)-month anniversary of the Closing Date, the Escrow Agent.
(b)    The Indemnitors may, at its option and upon acknowledging in writing to the Indemnitee’s reasonable satisfaction the Indemnitor’s responsibility for the entirety of any amounts payable to any third party with respect to such Third Party Claim (without regard to any threshold or limitation contemplated by Section 11.02(a) or (b), as the case may be), assume the defense of the Indemnitee against such Third Party Claim (including the employment of counsel reasonably acceptable the Indemnitee and the payment of reasonable expenses). Any Indemnitee shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such Third Party Claim and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall not be an expense of the Indemnitor unless (i) the Indemnitor shall have failed, within a reasonable time after having been notified by the Indemnitee of the existence of such Third Party Claim as provided in the preceding sentence, to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim or (ii) the employment of such counsel has been specifically authorized by the Indemnitor. If (i) the Indemnitor does not assume such defense, or notifies the Indemnitee within 30 days after the date notice is provided pursuant to Section 11.04(a) that the Indemnitor does not assume such defense, (ii) the Indemnitor having assumed such defense but failed to contest such Third Party Claim in good faith with legal counsel reasonably acceptable to Indemnitee (and Indemnitee’s consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), then the Indemnitee shall have the right, but not the obligation (upon delivering notice to such effect to the Indemnitor) to retain separate counsel of its choosing, defend such Third Party Claim and have the sole power to direct and control such defense (all at the reasonable cost and expense of the Indemnitor); it being understood that the Indemnitee’s right to indemnification for a Third Party Claim shall not be adversely affected by assuming the defense of such Third Party Claim. In all cases, the party without the right to control the defense of the Third Party Claim may retain counsel of its choice at its own expense, and may participate in the defense of such Third Party Claim.
(c)    Notwithstanding Section 11.04(b) above, if, with respect to a Third Party Claim: (i) such Third Party Claim seeks an injunction or other equitable remedies other than monetary damages in respect of the Indemnitee or its business; (ii) such Third Party Claim is reasonably likely to result in liabilities that, taken with other then existing claims under this Article 11, will not be fully indemnified hereunder; (iii) the Indemnitee has been advised by counsel in writing that an actual or potential conflict exists between the Indemnitee and the Indemnitor in connection with the defense of the Third Party Claim; (iv) such Third Party Claim involves a Permit or Governmental Authority; or (v) such Third Party Claim seeks a finding or admission of a violation of Applicable Law by the Indemnitee or any of its Affiliates, then, in each such case (A) the Indemnitee alone shall be entitled, but not obligated, to contest and defend, such Third Party Claim in the first instance, with counsel of its choosing and reasonably acceptable to the Indemnifying Parties, at the expense of the Indemnifying Parties; it being understood that the Indemnitee’s right to indemnification for a Third Party Claim shall not be adversely affected by assuming the defense of such Third Party Claim, and (B) if the Indemnitee does not contest and defend such Third Party Claim, the Indemnitor shall then have the right to contest and defend such Third Party Claim.

- 67 -
42185384v.30


(d)    The Indemnitee and the Indemnitor shall use commercially reasonable efforts to avoid production of confidential information (consistent with Applicable Law), and to cause all communications among employees, counsel and others representing any party to a Third Party Claim to be made so as to preserve any applicable attorney-client or work-product privileges.
(e)    Notwithstanding anything in this Section 11.04 to the contrary, neither the Indemnitor nor the Indemnitee may, without the written consent of the other party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, settle or compromise any Third Party Claim for which indemnification is sought, or permit a default judgment, or consent to entry of any judgment. If a settlement offer solely for money damages is made by the applicable third-party claimant, and the Indemnitor notifies the Indemnitee in writing of the Indemnitor’s willingness to accept the settlement offer and pay the amount called for by such offer without reservation of any rights or defenses against the Indemnitee, the Indemnitee may decline to accept the settlement offer and may continue to contest such claim, free of any participation by the Indemnitor, and the amount of any ultimate Liability with respect to such Third Party Claim that the Indemnitor has an obligation to pay under this Agreement will be limited to the lesser of (i) the amount of the settlement offer that the Indemnitee declined to accept plus the Losses of the Indemnitee relating to such Third Party Claim incurred with respect to costs and expenses of investigation, collection, prosecution, determination and defense thereof (including reasonable legal, accounting and other professional fees) through the date of its rejection of the settlement offer, or (ii) the aggregate Losses of the Indemnitee with respect to such Third Party Claim.
(f)    Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 11.04 to the contrary, for (i) any matter identified on Schedule 3.06 and identified with an asterisk (*) (each, a “Tax Claim”), and (ii) any Action or other matter set forth on Schedule 3.07 that remains open after the Closing (collectively with the Tax Claims, the “Retained Litigation”), (A) Parent shall control, prosecute and defend against, the Retained Litigation on behalf of the Company and the Seller Entities, including, without limitation, any settlement of the Retained Litigation; provided, that, no compromise or settlement of the Retained Litigation may be effected without the written consent of Buyer (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed provided that such compromise or settlement involves the payment of money damages only and includes mutual general releases), (B) Parent shall actively and diligently conduct the prosecution or defense, as applicable, of the Retained Litigation, (C) Parent shall keep the Buyer reasonably informed as to the status of the Retained Litigation (including, without limitation, by participating in monthly meetings with Buyer to discuss status and strategy) and copy Buyer on all correspondence relating thereto, (D) Buyer shall be entitled to participate in, and be present at, conference calls and meetings concerning the Retained Litigation, and (E) the Buyer shall be entitled to retain separate legal counsel and other advisors for purposes of keeping itself reasonably apprised as to the rights and obligations of the Buyer Indemnified Parties with respect to the Retained Litigation, and the Buyer shall bear all of the costs and expenses of such counsel and other advisors.
Section 11.05     Non-Third Party Claims. If a claim for Losses (a “Claim”) is to be made by any Indemnitee that does not involve a third party, such Indemnitee shall give written notice (a “Claim Notice”) to the Parent if the Claim Notice is being given by a Buyer Indemnified Party and to Buyer and Buyer Parent if the Claim Notice is being given by a Seller Indemnified Party, in each

- 68 -
42185384v.30


case, promptly after such Indemnitee becomes aware of any fact, condition or event giving rise to Losses for which indemnification may be sought under Section 11.02(a) or 11.02(b), which Claim Notice shall specify in reasonable detail, to the extent reasonably practicable at such time, the amount of the Claim and the Losses included in the amount so stated, the date (if any) such item was incurred or suffered, the basis for any anticipated liability and the nature of the misrepresentation, default, breach of warranty or breach of covenant or claim to which each such item is related. The failure of any Indemnitee to give timely notice hereunder shall not affect such Indemnitee’s rights to indemnification hereunder, except to the extent the applicable Indemnitor is actually prejudiced by such delay or failure, and the amount of reimbursement to which the Indemnitee is entitled shall be reduced by the amount, if any, by which the Indemnitee’s Losses would have been less had such Claim Notice been timely given. If the applicable Indemnitor notifies the Indemnitee that it does not dispute the claim described in such Claim Notice or fails to respond within 30 days following receipt of such Claim Notice, the Losses identified in the Claim Notice will be conclusively deemed a liability of the Indemnitor under Section 11.02(a) or 11.02(b), as applicable. If the applicable Indemnitor disputes its liability with respect to such Claim or the estimated amount of such Losses pursuant to this Section 11.05, the parties shall attempt in good faith to resolve such dispute; provided, that if such dispute has not been resolved within 90 days following receipt of such Claim Notice, then the Indemnitor and the Indemnitee may seek legal redress in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
Section 11.06     Adjustments; Subrogation; Regarding the Net Working Capital Amount.
(a)    For purposes of calculating amounts recoverable from an Indemnitor, Losses will be measured net of any amounts actually recovered (and not simply recoverable) after deducting collection costs and expenses, including any deductible amount, and any resultant increase in insurance premiums, by the Indemnitee for the Losses for which such indemnification payment is payable under any insurance policy, warranty or indemnity from any third party (each such source, a “Collateral Source”).  In the event that a recovery or payment from a Collateral Source is received by an Indemnitee with respect to any Loss for which any such Indemnitee has been indemnified by any Indemnitor hereunder, then a refund equal to the aggregate amount of the recovery (after deducting collection costs and expenses, including any deductible amount, and any resultant increase in insurance premiums), up to the amount paid by the Indemnitor to the Indemnitee, shall be made promptly by such Indemnitee to such Indemnitor.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, all such amounts actually recovered shall count against the Deductible.
(b)    If (i) Indemnitee is a Buyer Indemnified Party and (ii) a Loss is covered by a Seller Insurance Policy, Indemnitee shall seek full recovery and payment of such Loss from such Seller Insurance Policy to the same extent as it would if such Loss were not subject to indemnification hereunder.  The Buyer and the Company shall not terminate or cancel any Seller Insurance Policy.  For purposes hereof, “Seller Insurance Policy” means any insurance policy in effect for periods prior to the Closing to the extent the premiums therefor have been paid in full by the Company or a Seller Entity prior to the Closing.

- 69 -
42185384v.30


(c)    All indemnification payments made hereunder shall be treated by all parties as adjustments to the Purchase Price.
(d)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article 11, there shall be no recovery for any Loss or alleged Loss by the Buyer under Section 11.02, and the Loss shall not be included in meeting the Deductible hereunder, to the extent such item has been included in the calculation of the Net Working Capital Amount, including reserves and accruals, as determined pursuant to Section 2.05.
Section 11.07     Surviving Company. The parties acknowledge and agree that, if the Company or any Seller Entity suffers, incurs or otherwise becomes subject to any Losses as a result of or in connection with any misrepresentation or inaccuracy in or breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement, then (without limiting any of the rights of the Company or Seller Entity as an Indemnitee) Buyer shall also be deemed, by virtue of its ownership of the Membership Interest, to have incurred Losses as a result of and in connection with such misrepresentation, inaccuracy or breach.
Section 11.08     Limitation of Recourse.
(a)    Except for (i) claims arising from intentional or willful misrepresentation of facts that constitutes common law fraud under Applicable Laws, committed by a party hereto (ii) specific performance of obligations to be performed in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, (iii) claims by any party for equitable relief as permitted by this Agreement, and (iv) the purchase price adjustment provisions of Section 2.05 (none of which shall not be limited or impeded by this Article 11), the indemnification provided by this Article 11 shall be the sole and exclusive remedy for any Losses of the Buyer Indemnified Parties or Seller Indemnified Parties, as applicable, with respect to any misrepresentation or inaccuracy in, or breach of, any representations or warranties or any breach or failure in performance of any covenants or agreements made in this Agreement or in any Related Agreement, and except as set forth in this Article 11, the parties hereto waive any and all rights and claims they may have against the other parties hereto with respect thereto, including claims and rights for contribution, indemnity or other rights of recovery.
(b)    No claim shall be brought or maintained by any party hereto or their respective successors or permitted assigns against any officer, director, employee (present or former) or Affiliate of any party hereto which is not otherwise expressly identified as a party hereto, and no recourse shall be brought or granted against any of them, by virtue of or based upon any alleged misrepresentation or inaccuracy in or breach of any of the representations, warranties or covenants of any party hereto set forth or contained in this Agreement or any exhibit or Schedule hereto or any certificate delivered hereunder.

Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under Applicable Law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be prohibited by or invalid under Applicable Law, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement. Unless otherwise indicated, references in this Agreement to $ or dollars are to U.S. dollars.

Section 12.09     Specific Performance, Remedies Not Exclusive. The parties acknowledge that the Buyer and Buyer Parent, on the one hand, and the 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, the Buyer and Buyer Parent (in the event of such a breach by the Sellers) and the Sellers (in the event of such a breach by the Buyer or Buyer Parent) shall be entitled to a decree of specific performance pursuant to which the Buyer and Buyer Parent or the Sellers, 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.

If any litigation or other court action, arbitration or similar adjudicatory proceeding is commenced by any party hereto to enforce its rights under this Agreement against any other party, all fees, costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and court costs, incurred by the prevailing party in such litigation, action, arbitration or proceeding shall be reimbursed by the losing party; provided, that if a party to such litigation, action, arbitration or proceeding prevails in part, and loses in part, the court, arbitrator or other adjudicator presiding over such litigation, action, arbitration or proceeding shall award a reimbursement of the fees, costs and expenses incurred by such party on an equitable basis.
Section 12.11     Counterparts; Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument. This Agreement shall become effective when each party hereto shall have received a counterpart hereof signed by the other parties hereto. Except as otherwise specifically set forth herein, no provision of this Agreement (including specifically, but not limited to, Sections 7.02, 11.01, 11.02 and 11.03) is intended to confer upon any Person other than the parties hereto any rights or remedies hereunder.
