For the purposes of this Agreement, “reasonable best efforts” shall not be deemed to include (A) entering into any settlement, undertaking, consent decree, stipulation or agreement with any Governmental Authority in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, (B) litigating, challenging, participating in or taking any other action with respect to any action or proceeding by any Governmental Authority or (C) divesting or otherwise holding separate (including by establishing a trust or otherwise), or taking any other action (or otherwise agreeing to do any of the foregoing) with respect to, the businesses, assets or properties of any of NBCUniversal, GE, NBCH, HoldCo or Comcast or any of their respective Subsidiaries or Affiliates, and notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement, no party hereto shall be required to take any action referred to in clause (A), (B) or (C).

(b) Each party hereto agrees to promptly notify the other parties of any material oral or written communication it receives from any Governmental Authority relating to the matters that are the subject of this Agreement, permit the other parties to review in advance any material communication proposed to be made by such party to any Governmental Authority and provide the other parties with copies of all material correspondence, filings or other communications between them or any of their Representatives, on the one hand, and any Governmental Authority or members of its staff, on the other hand. No party to this Agreement shall agree to participate in any significant meeting or discussion with any Governmental Authority in respect of any such filings, investigation or other inquiry unless it consults with the other parties in advance and, to the extent permitted by such Governmental Authority, gives the other parties the opportunity to attend and participate at such meeting. Each party hereto will coordinate and cooperate fully with the other parties hereto in exchanging such information and providing such assistance as the other parties may reasonably request in connection with the foregoing.

Section 5.03 Further Action. (a) Each of the parties hereto shall execute and deliver, or shall cause to be executed and delivered, such documents and other papers and shall take, or shall cause to be taken, such further actions as may be reasonably required to carry out the provisions of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents and give effect to the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby.

(b) Each of the parties hereto shall keep the other parties reasonably apprised of the status of the matters relating to the completion of the transactions contemplated hereby. From time to time following the Closing, the parties hereto shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, execute, acknowledge and deliver all reasonable further conveyances, notices, assumptions, releases, acquittances and instruments, and shall take such reasonable actions as may be necessary or appropriate to make effective the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents as may be reasonably requested by any other party.

Prior to the Closing, Comcast shall negotiate, and to the extent (but only to the extent) requested by or consented to in writing by Comcast, GE shall cause HoldCo to enter into, definitive agreements (the “HoldCo Third Party Financing Agreements”) with respect to, and to consummate in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the HoldCo Third Party Financing.

(b) In addition to the HoldCo Third Party Financing, Comcast may arrange for additional third party debt financing (the “Excluded HoldCo Third Party Financing”) pursuant to which HoldCo will incur, immediately prior to the issuance of the HoldCo Preferred Shares, additional debt in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $100,000,000, which will be guaranteed by Comcast, for purposes of paying the expenses of HoldCo (including any fees incurred in connection with the HoldCo Third Party Financing or the Excluded HoldCo Third Party Financing). Prior to the Closing, Comcast may negotiate, and to the extent (but only to the extent) requested by or consented to in writing by Comcast, GE shall cause HoldCo to enter into, definitive agreements with respect to, and to

consummate in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Excluded HoldCo Third Party Financing. For the avoidance of doubt, the Excluded HoldCo Third Party Financing shall not constitute Additional HoldCo Third Party Financing (as defined in Section 5.04(c)).

Prior to the Closing, Comcast shall negotiate, and to the extent (but only to the extent) requested by or consented to in writing by Comcast, GE shall cause HoldCo to enter into, definitive agreements (the “Additional HoldCo Third Party Financing Agreements”) with respect to, and to consummate in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, any Additional HoldCo Third Party Financing; provided, that any such Additional HoldCo Third Party Financing Agreements shall be in form and substance reasonably acceptable to GE and HoldCo and shall provide that no such Additional HoldCo Third Party Financing Agreements shall remain outstanding if the Closing does not occur and this Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms. Such Additional HoldCo Third Party Financing shall provide for guarantees by Comcast and its cable holding companies that guarantee Comcast’s senior unsecured debt securities, such guarantees to be effective either upon issuance or upon Closing. Subject to Section 5.04(c)(ii) below and the proviso to Section 1.01(k), GE shall cause HoldCo to distribute the net proceeds of any Additional HoldCo Third Party Financing to NBCH at the Closing in lieu of HoldCo Notes having the same aggregate principal amount, and the principal amount of each series of HoldCo Notes (as set forth in Section 1.01(k)) shall be reduced on a pro rata basis (in proportion to the contemplated aggregate principal amount of the Holdco Notes represented by each such series) by the aggregate amount of any proceeds of Additional HoldCo Third Party Financing so distributed to NBCH, as set forth in Section 1.01(k). In connection with any Additional HoldCo Third Party Financing:

(i) GE and Comcast will cooperate to provide that the proceeds of any Additional HoldCo Third Party Financing issued or incurred prior to the Closing shall be held in escrow with a third-party escrow agent pending the Closing (at Comcast’s cost) and either (A) released to NBCH at the Closing in accordance with Section 1.01(k) or (B) if the Closing does not occur and this Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms, returned to the lenders or holders of such Additional HoldCo Third Party Financing (as the case may be) in accordance with the terms of the Additional HoldCo Third Party Financing Agreements.

(ii) Comcast and GE shall each pay 50% of all discounts and selling commissions incurred in connection with any Additional HoldCo Third Party Financing (the “Shared Underwriting Expenses”).

(d) In order to assist with obtaining the HoldCo Third Party Financing, any Excluded HoldCo Third Party Financing and any Additional HoldCo Third Party Financing and any financings to be obtained by Comcast in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (collectively, the “Third Party Financing”) (it being understood that the consummation of any such financing to be obtained by Comcast shall not be a condition to the obligation of Comcast to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement), each of NBCUniversal, HoldCo, Comcast, NBCH and GE shall, and shall cause its respective Subsidiaries to, and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause its respective Representatives to, provide such assistance and cooperation as HoldCo or Comcast may reasonably request (including, but not limited to, providing (x) all information requested by any lender providing such Third Party Financing necessary to enable such lender to identify HoldCo to the extent required for compliance with the Patriot Act or other “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, (y) such documents (which shall not include legal opinions) with respect to the good standing of HoldCo, the due authorization, execution and authentication of the Third Party Financing and other matters related to the due authorization, execution and authentication of such Third Party Financing as Comcast, any lender providing Third Party Financing or any managing initial purchasers of an offering of Third Party HoldCo Notes may reasonably request and (z) such information with respect to Holdco as would be required of GE and NBCH in connection with any “Demand” under the Notes Marketing Assistance Agreement); provided, that in no event will GE or any of its Affiliates be required to provide any credit support in connection with the Third Party Financing nor will GE, its Affiliates (other than HoldCo) or its Representatives be required to enter into or perform any obligations under any HoldCo Third Party Financing Agreement or any Additional HoldCo Third Party Financing Agreement or otherwise provide any representations, warranties, indemnities, agreements, opinions or other documents or certificates by or on behalf of HoldCo, GE, NBCH or any other party in connection therewith, except as provided in clauses (x), (y) and (z) of this sentence. Any offering materials used by or on behalf of Comcast in connection with any Additional HoldCo Third Party Financing Agreement shall be in form and substance reasonably acceptable to GE and HoldCo, and Comcast shall provide GE and HoldCo drafts of such materials and a reasonable period of time to review and comment upon such materials prior to any use thereof. Comcast shall promptly reimburse GE and HoldCo for (i) all of their respective reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs, fees and expenses (excluding GE’s allocable portion of the Shared Underwriting Expenses) to the extent resulting from any actions taken by either of them in the

course of compliance with their obligations under, or at the request of Comcast pursuant to, this Section 5.04 and (ii) any other Liabilities arising out of or in relation to the Third Party Financing, except to the extent arising out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of a GE Indemnified Party or a HoldCo Indemnified Party (collectively, the “Third Party Financing Liabilities”).

Effective upon the Closing, in lieu of the agreements set forth in Section 6.24 of the Master Agreement, the parties hereby agree that (a) during each calendar year from and including 2013 to and including 2016, GE will directly or indirectly through one or more of its Subsidiaries purchase no less than $59 million of gross advertising, in the aggregate, and (b) during each calendar year from and including 2017 to and including 2018, GE will directly or indirectly through one or more of its Subsidiaries purchase no less than $60 million of gross advertising, in the aggregate, in each case from NBCUniversal and its Subsidiaries.

For the avoidance of doubt, the dollar amounts described in this Section 5.05 are for the purchase of advertising, including access to marketing execution, but exclusive of associated out-of-pocket expenses.

(b) In connection with the waiver, release and discharge effected by Section 5.08(a), each Releasing Person acknowledges that such waiver, release and discharge is a general waiver, release and discharge and waives any rights it may have under any Law that purports to limit the effect of a general waiver, release and discharge (such as a Law that seeks to limit the effect of a general waiver, release and discharge only to claims that are known at the time such waiver, release and discharge is granted). Each Releasing Person further acknowledges that it may discover, after this Agreement becomes effective, that the facts and circumstances upon which it based its decision to enter into such general waiver, release and discharge are other than or different from what it now believes to be true. Such general waiver, release and discharge shall, however, remain binding and effective notwithstanding the discovery of such new or different facts or circumstances.

GE and Comcast, as the case may be, shall, and shall cause each of their respective Affiliates and Representatives to, cooperate fully with the Controlling Party in the defense of any Third Party Claim. If the Indemnifying Party does not so assume control of such defense, the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to control such defense.

If the Indemnifying Party shall assume the control of the defense of any Third Party Claim in accordance with this Section 9.04(b), the Indemnifying Party shall obtain the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party before entering into any settlement of, or consenting to the entry of any judgment arising from, such Third Party Claims unless (x) the Indemnifying Party shall (i) pay or cause to be paid all amounts arising out of such settlement or judgment concurrently with the effectiveness of such settlement, (ii) not encumber any of the assets of any Indemnified Party or agree to any restriction or condition that would apply to or materially adversely affect any Indemnified Party or the conduct of any Indemnified Party’s business and (iii) obtain, as a condition of any settlement or other resolution, a complete release of any Indemnified Party potentially affected by such Third Party Claim and (y) such settlement or consent shall not include an admission of wrongdoing on the part of any Indemnified Party.

Section 9.05 Exclusive Remedies. Other than with respect to any injunctive remedies or in the case of intentional fraud, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that, following the Closing, the indemnification provisions of Section 9.01 and Section 9.02 shall be the sole and exclusive remedies of any Indemnified Parties, respectively, for any Losses (including any Losses from claims for breach of contract, warranty, tortious conduct (including negligence) or otherwise and whether predicated on common law, statute, strict liability, or otherwise) that it may at any time suffer or incur, or become subject to, as a result of, or in connection with, any breach of any representation or warranty in this Agreement by GE, HoldCo, Comcast or NBCUniversal, respectively, or any failure by GE, HoldCo, Comcast or NBCUniversal, respectively, to perform or comply with any covenant or agreement set forth herein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waive any right of rescission they may otherwise have or to which they may become entitled.

Section 9.06 Additional Indemnification Provisions. (a) With respect to each indemnification obligation contained in any Transaction Document or any other document executed in connection with the Closing, all Losses shall be net of any third-party insurance proceeds that have been actually recovered by the Indemnified Party in connection with the facts giving rise to the right of indemnification.

(b) If an Indemnifying Party makes any payment for any Losses suffered or incurred by an Indemnified Party pursuant to the provisions of this Article 9, such Indemnifying Party shall be subrogated, to the extent of such payment, to all rights and remedies of the Indemnified Party to any insurance benefits or other claims of the Indemnified Party with respect to such Losses and with respect to the claim giving rise to such Losses.

(c) For the avoidance of doubt, Losses covered by Section 9.01 or Section 9.02 may include Losses incurred in connection with a Third Party Claim or otherwise and Losses that arise as a result of the negligence, strict liability or any other liability under any theory of law or equity of, or violation of any Law by, the Person indemnified thereunder.

Section 9.07 Certain Losses. (a) If GE becomes aware of any Losses for which HoldCo or NBCUniversal may be entitled to seek indemnification from Comcast under this Agreement, or for which HoldCo may be entitled to seek indemnification from NBCUniversal under this Agreement, (i) GE shall notify HoldCo or NBCUniversal, as applicable, and (ii) if HoldCo or NBCUniversal does not promptly seek such indemnification, GE shall be entitled to seek such indemnification on behalf of HoldCo or NBCUniversal and may exercise or cause to be exercised all of the rights of HoldCo and NBCUniversal with respect to such Losses as if GE were the Indemnified Party with respect to such Losses; provided that any amounts recovered from Comcast or NBCUniversal with respect to such Losses shall be paid to HoldCo or NBCUniversal, as applicable.

(b) For the avoidance of doubt, it is understood that the indemnification provided for in this Article 9 is intended to indemnify the Indemnified Parties only for Losses suffered or incurred by them directly and is not intended to indemnify any Indemnified Party with respect to Losses suffered or incurred solely by virtue of their direct or indirect equity ownership in another Person (including any other Indemnified Party).

Section 9.08 Mitigation. Each Indemnified Party shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate any Loss for which such Indemnified Party seeks indemnification under this Agreement.

Section 9.09 Third Party Remedies. If any Indemnified Party (or any of their respective Affiliates) is at any time entitled (whether by reason of a contractual right, a right to take or bring a legal action, availability of insurance, or a right to require a payment discount or otherwise) to recover from another Person any amount in respect of any matter giving rise to a Loss (whether before or after the Indemnifying Party has made a payment to an Indemnified Party hereunder and in respect thereof), the Indemnified Party shall, and shall cause its applicable Affiliate to use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to, (a) promptly notify the Indemnifying Party and provide such information as the Indemnifying Party may require relating to such right of recovery and the steps taken or to be taken by the Indemnified Party in connection therewith and (b) keep the Indemnifying Party reasonably informed of the progress of any action taken in respect thereof; provided that for the avoidance of doubt, the actions required pursuant to clauses (a) and (b) shall not be preconditions to recovery by any Indemnified Party from an Indemnifying Party pursuant to this Agreement. Thereafter, any claim against such Indemnifying Party shall be limited (in addition to the limitations on the liability of the Indemnifying Party referred to in this Agreement) to the amount by which the Losses suffered by the Indemnified Party exceed the amounts so recovered by the Indemnified Party or any such Affiliate. If the Indemnified Parties recover any amounts in respect of Losses from any third party with respect to a matter as to which the Indemnified Parties have recovered all of their Losses (whether pursuant to this Article 9, from third parties or a combination of the foregoing) at any time after the Indemnifying Party has paid all or a portion of such Losses to the Indemnified Party pursuant to this provisions of this Article 9, Comcast or GE, as applicable, shall, or shall cause such Indemnified Parties to promptly (and in any event within ten (10) Business Days of receipt) pay over to the Indemnifying Party the amount so received (to the extent previously paid by the Indemnifying Party).

Section 9.10 Limitation on Liability. In no event shall any party have any liability to the other (including under this Article 9) for any consequential, special, incidental, indirect or punitive damages or similar items (or to the extent the same would constitute consequential or like damages, lost profits) other than any such damages actually awarded to a third party in connection with a Third Party Claim; provided that such limitations shall not limit the right of (a) Comcast, on the one hand, or (b) GE, on the other hand, to recover contract damages in connection with the failure of GE, NBCH or HoldCo (with respect to Comcast’s right) or Comcast (with respect to GE’s right), to close in violation of this Agreement.

Section 10.04 Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced under any Law or as a matter of public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties to this Agreement shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement be consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible.

Section 10.05 Entire Agreement. The Transaction Documents constitute the entire agreement between the parties hereto and thereto with respect to the subject matter of the Transaction Documents and supersede all prior agreements, undertakings and understandings, both written and oral, between or on behalf of the parties hereto and thereto, with respect to the subject matter of the Transaction Documents; provided that, except to the extent amended, superseded or otherwise modified by the Transaction Documents, the Initial Investment Agreements shall continue to constitute the agreement between the parties thereto with respect to the subject matter thereof. For the avoidance of doubt, the representations and warranties set forth in the Transaction Documents do not address the Real Estate Agreements or the subject matter of the Real Estate Agreements. The parties hereto have voluntarily agreed to define their rights, liabilities and obligations respecting the subject matter of this Agreement exclusively in contract pursuant to the express terms and provisions of this Agreement; and the parties hereto expressly disclaim that they are owed any duties not expressly set forth in this Agreement. The sole and exclusive remedies for any breach of the terms and provisions of this Agreement (including any representations and warranties set forth herein) shall be those remedies provided for in this Agreement or available at Law or in equity for breach of contract only (as such contractual remedies may be further limited or excluded pursuant to the express terms of this Agreement); and the parties hereto hereby waive and release any and all tort claims and causes of action that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement (including any tort claim

or cause of action based upon, arising out of or related to any representation or warranty made in or in connection with this Agreement or as an inducement to enter into this Agreement). Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement shall constitute a waiver or release, or limit any party’s right to pursue any claim or remedy, with respect to intentional fraud of another party.

Section 10.06 Assignment. This Agreement shall not be assigned by operation of Law or otherwise by any party hereto without the prior written consent of the other parties hereto, except that GE or Comcast may assign any or all of their respective rights and obligations under this Agreement to any of their respective Affiliates; provided that no such assignment shall release the applicable assignor from any liability or obligation under this Agreement. Any attempted assignment in violation of this Section 10.06 shall be void. This Agreement shall be binding upon, shall inure to the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by the parties hereto and their permitted successors and assigns.

Section 10.07 No Third-Party Beneficiaries. Except as provided in Article 9 with respect to the Indemnified Parties, this Agreement is for the sole benefit of the parties to this Agreement and their permitted successors and assigns and nothing in this Agreement or any other Transaction Documents, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other Person any legal or equitable right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement.

Section 10.08 Amendment. No provision of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, including any Annexes, Exhibits or Schedules thereto, may be amended, supplemented or modified except by a written instrument making specific reference hereto or thereto signed by all the parties to such agreement. No consent from any Indemnified Party under Article 9 (other than the parties hereto) shall be required in order to amend this Agreement.

Section 10.09 Dispute Resolution. (a) Except as set forth in any other Transaction Document, and except with respect to any request for equitable relief (including interim relief) by any of the parties hereto on or prior to the Closing Date, any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or the validity, interpretation, breach or termination of any such agreement, including claims seeking redress or asserting rights under any Law (a “Dispute”), shall be resolved in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 10.09, Section 10.10 and Section 10.14. Until completion of the procedures set forth in Section 10.09(b), no party may take any action to force a resolution of a Dispute by any judicial or similar process, except to the limited extent necessary to (i) avoid expiration of a claim that might eventually be permitted by this Agreement or (ii) obtain interim relief, including injunctive relief, to preserve the status quo or prevent irreparable harm.

(b) Any party seeking resolution of a Dispute shall first submit the Dispute to the relevant other parties. Each party agrees to confer and discuss in good faith potential mutually agreeable resolutions to such Dispute, including by designating an appropriate member of senior management to serve as its representative in such discussions. Discussions will continue for at least 10 days following submission of the Dispute.

(c) All offers of compromise or settlement among the parties or their Representatives in connection with the attempted resolution of any Dispute shall be deemed to have been delivered in furtherance of a Dispute settlement and shall be exempt from discovery and production and shall not be admissible in evidence (whether as an admission or otherwise) in any proceeding for the resolution of the Dispute.

Section 10.10 Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction; Waivers. (a) Except as otherwise set forth in the other Transaction Documents, this Agreement and each other Transaction Document (and any claims, causes of action or disputes that may be based upon, arise out of or relate hereto or thereto, to the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, to the negotiation, execution or performance hereof or thereof, or to the inducement of any party to enter herein and therein, whether for breach of contract, tortious conduct or otherwise and whether predicated on common law, statute or otherwise) shall in all respects be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the Laws of the State of Delaware, including all matters of construction, validity and performance, in each case without reference to any conflict of Law rules that might lead to the application of the Laws of any other jurisdiction.

(b) Each of the parties hereto agrees that if any Dispute is not resolved by discussions undertaken pursuant to Section 10.09, such Dispute shall be resolved only in the Chancery Court of the State of Delaware (or if unavailable, any federal court sitting in the State of Delaware or, if unavailable, the Delaware Superior Court) and the appellate courts having jurisdiction of appeals in such courts. In that context, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each of the parties hereto by this Agreement irrevocably and unconditionally:

(i) submits for itself and its property in any Action relating to the Transaction Documents, or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect thereof, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Chancery Court of the State of Delaware (or if unavailable, any federal court sitting in the State of Delaware or, if unavailable, the Delaware Superior Court), and appellate courts having jurisdiction of appeals from any of the foregoing, and agrees that all claims in respect of any such Action shall be heard and determined in such Delaware court or, to the extent permitted by Law, in such federal court;

(ii) consents that any such Action may and shall be brought in such courts and waives any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the venue or jurisdiction of any such Action in any such court or that such Action was brought in an inconvenient court and agrees not to plead or claim the same;

(iii) agrees that service of process in any such Action may be effected by mailing a copy of such process by registered or certified mail (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, to such party at its address as provided in Section 10.03; and

(iv) agrees that nothing in the Transaction Documents shall affect the right to effect service of process in any other manner permitted by the Laws of the State of Delaware.

Section 10.11 Specific Performance. Each party hereto acknowledges and agrees that the breach of this Agreement would cause irreparable damage to the other parties hereto and that no party hereto will have an adequate remedy at law. Therefore, the obligations of the parties hereto under this Agreement shall be enforceable by a decree of specific performance issued by any court of competent jurisdiction, and appropriate injunctive relief may be applied for and granted in connection therewith. Such remedies shall, however, be cumulative and not exclusive and shall be in addition to any other remedies which any party may have under this Agreement or otherwise.

Section 10.12 Rules of Construction. Interpretation of the Transaction Documents shall be governed by the following rules of construction: (a) words in the singular shall be held to include the plural and vice versa, and words of one gender shall be held to include the other gender as the context requires; (b) references to the terms Article, Section, paragraph and Exhibit are references to the Articles, Sections, paragraphs and Exhibits to this Agreement unless otherwise specified; (c) the terms “hereof”, “herein”, “hereby”, “hereto”, and derivative or similar words refer to this entire Agreement, including the Exhibits and Schedules hereto; (d) references to “$” shall mean U.S. dollars; (e) the word “including” and words of similar import when used in the Transaction Documents shall mean “including without limitation,” unless otherwise specified; (f) the word “or” shall not be exclusive; (g) references to “written” or “in writing” include in electronic form; (h) the headings contained in the Transaction Documents are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of the Transaction Documents; (i) the parties hereto have each participated in the negotiation and drafting of the Transaction Documents and if an ambiguity or question of interpretation should arise, the Transaction Documents shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties thereto and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or burdening any party hereto by virtue of the authorship of any of the provisions in any of the Transaction Documents; (j) a

reference to any Person includes such Person’s successors and permitted assigns; (k) any reference to “days” means calendar days unless Business Days are expressly specified; and (l) when calculating the period of time before which, within which or following which any act is to be done or step taken pursuant to this Agreement, the date that is the reference date in calculating such period shall be excluded and, if the last day of such period is not a Business Day, the period shall end on the next succeeding Business Day.

Section 10.13 Counterparts. Each of the Transaction Documents may be executed in one or more counterparts, and by the different parties to each such agreement in separate counterparts, each of which when executed shall be deemed to be an original but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to any Transaction Document by facsimile or portable document format (.pdf) shall be as effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of any such Agreement.

Section 10.14 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT TO ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY. EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 10.14.

Section 10.15 Non-Recourse. Except as provided in Section 9.01, no past, present or future director, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partner, stockholder, Affiliate, agent, attorney or representative of any party hereto, or their respective Affiliates, shall have any liability for any obligations or liabilities of the parties hereto, as applicable, under this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents of or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby.

Section 10.16 Public Announcements. No party to this Agreement or any Affiliate or Representative of such party shall issue or cause the publication of any press release or public announcement in respect of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including, without limitation, Schedule 5.12 hereto) without the prior written consent of the other parties (which

consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), except as may be required by Law or stock exchange rules, in which the case the party required to publish such press release or public announcement shall allow the other parties a reasonable opportunity to comment on such press release or public announcement in advance of such publication, to the extent practicable.
