CHRISTOPHER DUPREE, an individual resident of the State of Alabama (the “Shareholder”), KNOLOGY, INC., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), and KNOLOGY OF ALABAMA, INC., a Delaware corporation (“Buyer”).

WHEREAS, the Shareholder owns all Securities of the Company;

WHEREAS, Parent, Buyer, the Company and the Shareholder wish to effect a business combination by providing for the purchase by Buyer from the Shareholder of all of the Securities of the Company upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement (the “Transaction”);

WHEREAS, the Boards of Directors of the Company, Parent and Buyer have approved and adopted this Agreement, the Transaction and the other transactions contemplated hereby and have determined that this Agreement, the Transaction and the other transactions contemplated hereby are in the best interest of their respective stockholders;

WHEREAS, the Shareholder, by his execution of this Agreement, has approved and adopted this Agreement, the Transaction and the other transactions contemplated hereby;

WHEREAS, as an essential condition to Parent’s and Buyer’s willingness to enter into this Agreement and to consummate the Transaction, the Shareholder has agreed to execute and comply with the Restrictive Covenants Agreement (as defined below); and

WHEREAS, Parent, Buyer, the Company and the Shareholder desire to make certain representations, warranties, covenants and agreements in connection with the Transaction and to prescribe various conditions to the Transaction.

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements and covenants herein contained, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

ARTICLE I -THE TRANSACTION

Section 1.1. The Transaction. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, at the Closing (as defined below), the Shareholder will sell, transfer, assign, convey and deliver to Buyer, and Buyer will purchase, acquire, receive and accept from the Shareholder, for the Total Consideration (as defined below), all Securities of the Company free and clear of any and all Encumbrances (as defined below) and rights of others whatsoever.

Section 1.2. Closing. Unless this Agreement is terminated earlier in accordance with its terms, the closing of the Transaction (the “Closing”) shall occur (i) as of 10:00 a.m. local time in Atlanta, Georgia on or before January 12, 2008 if the conditions set forth in Sections 7.1, 7.2

and 7.3 have been satisfied or waived (other than conditions required to be satisfied at the Closing) as of such date or (ii) if such conditions have not been satisfied or waived as of such date, the Closing shall occur no later than the fifth Business Day (as defined below) after the conditions set forth in Sections 7.1, 7.2 and 7.3 have been satisfied or waived (other than conditions required to be satisfied at the Closing); and, provided further that, the foregoing notwithstanding, the Closing may occur on any other date and/or at any other time agreed upon in writing by the Company, the Shareholder, Buyer and Parent. The date on which the Closing occurs pursuant to the foregoing sentence is referred to in this Agreement as the “Closing Date.” The Closing shall take place at the offices of Morris, Manning & Martin, LLP, 1600 Atlanta Financial Center, 3343 Peachtree Road NE, Atlanta, Georgia 30326, or at such other place as agreed to in writing by the Company, the Shareholder, Buyer and Parent. “Business Day” means any day other than a Saturday or Sunday or a day on which the FedWire System operated by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York is closed.

ARTICLE II - -PAYMENT WITH RESPECT TO SECURITIES; OTHER CLOSING

PAYMENTS; POST-CLOSING ADJUSTMENTS

Section 2.1. Payment with respect to Securities.

(a) The total amount payable at the Closing by Parent and Buyer to the Shareholder in full payment for and on account of the sale of the Securities provided for in Section 1.1 above shall equal (A) the Closing Consideration (as defined below), plus or minus (B) the aggregate amount of any additional payments to be made by or to the Shareholder under this Agreement, including, without limitation, payments under Section 2.5, Section 6.5(f) or Article VIII and/or pursuant to the Escrow Agreement (collectively, the “Total Consideration”). The amount to be delivered by Buyer to the Shareholder in cash at the Closing shall be an amount equal to: (i) Seventy-Five Million Dollars ($75,000,000) (the “Transaction Price”), subject to possible increase pursuant to Section 2.5; plus (ii) the Estimated Working Capital Adjustment (which number shall be subtracted if it is a negative number); less (iii) the aggregate amount of all Indebtedness (as defined below) of the Company to be paid by Parent and Buyer pursuant to Section 2.2; less (iv) all Company Expenses (as defined below) to be paid by Parent and Buyer pursuant to Section 2.3; less (v) the Escrow Amount (as defined below) (collectively, the “Closing Consideration”). The aggregate amount of all Indebtedness of the Company to be paid by Parent and Buyer pursuant to Section 2.2 shall be treated by Parent and Buyer as a capital contribution to the Company by Buyer immediately prior to the payment of such Indebtedness to the Company’s lenders.

(b) At the Closing, Parent shall cause to be delivered to SunTrust Bank, a Georgia banking corporation (the “Escrow Agent”), an amount in cash equal to $3,000,000 (the “Escrow Amount”), such deposit to constitute an escrow fund (the “Escrow Fund”). The Escrow Fund shall be governed by the terms hereof and the terms of an escrow agreement to be entered into by and among Parent, the Shareholder and the Escrow Agent, such escrow agreement to be substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Escrow Agreement”). The Escrow Fund shall be held in escrow and shall be available to settle certain contingencies as provided in Section 2.5 and Article VIII of this Agreement and will be distributable to the Shareholder and/or Parent in accordance with the Escrow Agreement.

Section 2.2. Payments at Closing for Indebtedness. As of the Closing Date, Parent shall repay, by wire transfer of immediately available funds, all indebtedness then outstanding under those certain agreements, instruments, and facilities entered into by and among the Company and various lending institutions, all of such agreements, instruments and facilities being as described on Schedule 2.2 attached hereto (collectively, the “Indebtedness”); provided that the Company has provided payoff letters from the lenders of such Indebtedness. Parent and Buyer, on the one hand, and the Company and the Shareholder, on the other hand, will cooperate in arranging for such repayment and shall take such reasonable actions as may be necessary to facilitate such repayment and to facilitate the release, in connection with such repayment, of any mortgages, pledges, liens, security interests, encumbrances, claims, charges, conditional sale agreements and restrictions of any kind or character (collectively, “Encumbrances”) securing such Indebtedness and the delivery of payoff letters to Parent or Parent’s lenders. Payment of Indebtedness shall serve as a reduction of the Total Consideration pursuant to Section 2.1(a) above.

Section 2.3. Payments at Closing for Expenses. As of the Closing Date, Parent and Buyer shall provide funds to the Company and Shareholder (as appropriate) in an amount equal to the amount of (and which shall be used to pay) all outstanding fees and expenses of the Shareholder, the Company and each of its Subsidiaries in connection with the negotiation and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement that have not been paid on or prior to the Closing Date (the “Company Expenses”). Payment of such Company Expenses shall serve as a reduction to the Total Consideration pursuant to Section 2.1(a) above.

Section 2.4. Estimated Working Capital Adjustment.

(a) At least twenty (20) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Shareholder shall deliver to Parent and Buyer a good faith estimate of what the Company’s Net Working Capital will be as of the close of business on the Closing Date (the “Shareholder’s Estimated Working Capital”), together with supporting documentation for such estimate and any additional information relating thereto reasonably requested by Parent or Buyer. Parent and its accountants and advisors shall be given full access to all of the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ books and records for purposes of evaluating the accuracy and completeness of the Shareholder’s Estimated Working Capital. If Parent believes, in good faith, that the Shareholder’s Estimated Working Capital is in error, Parent may challenge the amount of the Shareholder’s Estimated Working Capital within ten (10) Business Days following its receipt of the Shareholder’s Estimated Working Capital by delivering a written notice of disagreement to the Shareholder. If Parent does not timely deliver a notice of disagreement to the Shareholder, the amount of the Closing Consideration to be paid at the Closing shall be based on the Shareholder’s Estimated Working Capital as delivered to Parent. If Parent timely delivers a written notice of disagreement to the Shareholder, Parent and the Shareholder shall use their good faith efforts to resolve any disputes with respect to the Shareholder’s Estimated Working Capital prior to the Closing Date, and the amount of Closing Consideration to be paid at the Closing shall be based on the Estimated Working Capital (as defined below) as mutually agreed to in writing by Parent and the Shareholder. If Parent timely delivers a notice of disagreement to the Shareholder but Parent and the Shareholder are unable to resolve their dispute regarding the Shareholder’s Estimated Working Capital within four (4) Business Days of the delivery by Parent to the Shareholder of such notice of disagreement, then the amount of Closing Consideration to be paid at the Closing

shall be based on the amount of working capital set forth in such notice of disagreement. “Estimated Working Capital” shall mean the estimate of what the Company’s Net Working Capital will be at the close of business on the Closing Date as determined by the parties pursuant to this Section 2.4(a).

(b) The target working capital will be a range between $500,000 and $850,000 in Net Working Capital. The “Estimated Working Capital Adjustment” shall be a dollar amount calculated as follows:

(i) If Estimated Working Capital is equal to or greater than $500,000 but less than or equal to $850,0000, then the Estimated Working Capital Adjustment shall be zero; or

(ii) If Estimated Working Capital is less than $500,000, then the Estimated Working Capital Adjustment shall be equal to the amount of Estimated Working Capital calculated in accordance with Section 2.4(a) minus $500,000; or

(iii) If Estimated Working Capital is greater than $850,000, then the Estimated Working Capital Adjustment shall be equal to the amount of Estimated Working Capital calculated in accordance with Section 2.4(a) minus $850,000.

Section 2.5. Post Closing Adjustments.

(a) Within sixty (60) days following the Closing Date, Parent shall prepare and deliver to the Shareholder a consolidated balance sheet of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of the close of business on the Closing Date (the “Closing Balance Sheet”), and a consolidated statement of operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007 (the “Closing Statement of Operations”). The Closing Balance Sheet will include Parent’s calculation of the Company’s actual Net Working Capital as of the close of business on the Closing Date (the “Closing Working Capital”) and a certificate based on such Closing Balance Sheet setting forth Parent’s calculation of the Closing Working Capital Adjustment (as defined below). The Closing Statement of Operations will include Parent’s calculation of EBITDA and a certificate based on such Closing Statement of Operations setting forth Parent’s calculations of the Closing EBITDA Adjustment (as defined below). The Closing Balance Sheet, the Closing Statement of Operations, the Closing Working Capital Adjustment and the Closing EBITDA Adjustment and the related certificates, collectively, are referred to herein as, the “Closing Statement”. The Closing Balance Sheet and the Closing Statement of Operations shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP, consistent with past practices and, with respect to the Closing Balance Sheet, consistent with the practices, policies and procedures used in preparation of the Base Balance Sheet (as defined below), and each shall be certified by an authorized officer of Parent. The preparation of the Closing Statement shall be for the sole purpose of determining the Closing Working Capital Adjustment in accordance with Section 2.5(b) and the Closing EBITDA Adjustment in accordance with Section 2.5(d). The Shareholder shall have twenty (20) Business Days following its receipt of the Closing Statement (the “Review Period”) to review the same. On or before the expiration of the Review Period, the Shareholder shall deliver to Parent a written statement accepting or objecting to each item set forth on the Closing Statement. If the Shareholder objects to any item set forth on the Closing Statement, such statement shall include an itemization of the Shareholder’s objections and the reasons therefor. The Shareholder shall be deemed to have accepted each item on the Closing Statement to which the Shareholder has not properly objected during the Review Period.

(b) The “Closing Working Capital Adjustment” shall be a dollar amount calculated as follows:

(i) If Closing Working Capital is equal to or greater than $500,000 but less than or equal to $850,000, then the Closing Working Capital Adjustment shall be zero, and any previously-made Estimated Working Capital Adjustment shall be reversed and, if applicable, refunded to the appropriate party (which amount will be paid directly by the parties without any deductions from the Escrow Fund); or

(ii) If Closing Working Capital and Estimated Working Capital are both less than $500,000, then the Closing Working Capital Adjustment shall be equal to (A) Estimated Working Capital minus (B) Closing Working Capital; or

(iii) If Closing Working Capital is less than $500,000 and Estimated Working Capital is between $500,000 and $850,000, then the Closing Working Capital Adjustment shall be equal to (A) $500,000 minus (B) Closing Working Capital; or

(iv) If Closing Working Capital is less than $500,000 and Estimated Working Capital is greater than $850,000, then the Closing Working Capital Adjustment shall be equal to (A) $500,000 minus the Closing Working Capital plus (B) the Estimated Working Capital minus $850,000; or

(v) If Closing Working Capital is greater than $850,000 and Estimated Working Capital is less than $500,000, then the Closing Working Capital Adjustment shall be equal to (A) Estimated Working Capital minus $500,000 plus (B) $850,000 minus Closing Working Capital; or

(vi) If Closing Working Capital is greater than $850,000 and Estimated Working Capital is between $500,000 and $850,000, then the Closing Working Capital Adjustment shall be equal to (A) $850,000 minus (B) Closing Working Capital; or

(vii) If Closing Working Capital and Estimated Working Capital are both greater than $850,000, then the Closing Working Capital Adjustment shall be equal to (A) Closing Working Capital minus (B) Estimated Working Capital.

(c) The Closing Working Capital Adjustment set forth on the Closing Statement, as accepted or deemed accepted under Section 2.5(a) or, if applicable, as determined in accordance with Section 2.5(f) below, shall constitute the “Final Closing Working Capital Adjustment” for purposes of determining the working capital adjustments to the Total Merger Consideration.

(d) The “Closing EBITDA Adjustment” shall mean the product of (i) the difference between FY 2007 EBITDA minus $9,275,000, with the result of such calculation being deemed to equal zero (0) if such result is a positive number, multiplied by (ii) 7.6.

(e) The Closing EBITDA Adjustment set forth on the Closing Statement, as accepted or deemed accepted under Section 2.5(a) or, if applicable, as determined in accordance with Section 2.5(f) below, shall constitute the “Final Closing EBITDA Adjustment” for purposes of determining the EBITDA adjustment to the Total Merger Consideration.

(f) If the Shareholder objects to any item on the Closing Statement within the Review Period, Parent and the Shareholder shall promptly and in good faith attempt to resolve such objections. Any such objections that cannot be resolved between Parent and the Shareholder within thirty (30) days following Parent’s receipt of the Shareholder’s statement of objections shall be resolved in accordance with this Section 2.5(f). Any such unresolved objections shall be submitted to Jackson Thornton (the “Accounting Referee”) for review and resolution, with instructions to complete the same as promptly as practicable, but in any event within thirty (30) days of its engagement, and to make any calculations in accordance with GAAP and the terms and conditions of this Agreement including, with respect to the Closing Balance Sheet, in a manner that is consistent with the practices, policies and procedures used in preparation of the Base Balance Sheet. Such Accounting Referee shall deliver a statement setting forth its own calculation of the Closing Working Capital Adjustment and/or the Closing EBITDA Adjustment, as the case may be, within thirty (30) days of the submission of the matter to such firm, which calculation, absent manifest error, shall be binding and conclusive on the parties and not subject to appeal. The fees and costs of the Accounting Referee, if one is required, shall be payable by the party whose calculations of the disputed amounts in the aggregate were farthest from the actual amounts as determined by the Accounting Referee.

(g) If the Final Closing Working Capital Adjustment is a positive amount, Parent shall receive (out of the Escrow Fund) an amount in cash equal to the Final Closing Working Capital Adjustment, including all interest earned thereon. In the event the Final Closing Working Capital Adjustment is a negative amount, then Parent shall pay to the Shareholder an amount in cash equal to the Final Closing Working Capital Adjustment, plus interest on such amount, from the Closing Date until the date of determination of the Final Closing Working Capital Adjustment, earned at the same rate of interest as was earned on the Escrow Fund for the same period of time, and shall distribute such amount to the Shareholder. Any payment made under this Section 2.5(g) shall be made within five (5) Business Days of the final determination of the Final Closing Working Capital Adjustment.

(h) If the Final Closing EBITDA Adjustment is a negative amount, Parent shall receive (out of the Escrow Fund) an amount in cash equal to the absolute value of the Final Closing EBITDA Adjustment, including all interest earned thereon. Any payment made under this Section 2.5(h) shall be made within five (5) Business Days of the final determination of the Final Closing EBITDA Adjustment.

(i) If the Final Closing Working Capital Adjustment and the Final Closing EBITDA Adjustment are determined simultaneously, they may be aggregated and, if applicable, offset against each other.

ARTICLE III -REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE COMPANY AND

THE SHAREHOLDER

The Company and the Shareholder jointly and severally make to Parent and Buyer each and every one of the representations and warranties contained in this Article III.

Section 3.1. Existence; Good Standing; Authority.

The Company has all requisite corporate power and authority to own, use, operate, lease and transfer its properties and carry on its business as currently conducted. The Company is duly licensed or qualified to do business as a foreign corporation under the laws of each jurisdiction listed on Schedule 3.1(a) and each other jurisdiction in which the character of its properties or in which the transaction of its business makes such qualification necessary, except where the failure to be so licensed or qualified would not have or be reasonably likely to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Company Material Adverse Effect (as defined below). The Company has delivered to Parent true, correct and complete copies of (a) its Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws, in each case as amended through the date hereof, (b) all of its committee charters, codes of conduct or other comparable governing documents, in each case as amended through the date hereof, (c) all the written consents and minutes of the meetings of its Board of Directors and each committee of its Board of Directors held since its inception and (d) all the written consents and minutes of the meetings of its shareholders held since its inception.

The execution and delivery of this Agreement, the performance by the Company of its obligations hereunder and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby have been duly authorized by the Board of Directors of the Company at a meeting duly called and held at which all directors of the Company were present in accordance with the Bylaws of the Company. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Company, and assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery of

this Agreement by Parent and Buyer, this Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and by general equitable principles (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding at law or in equity) (collectively, “General Enforceability Exceptions”).

(c) The Shareholder has the power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and to perform his obligations hereunder. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Shareholder, and assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery of this Agreement by Parent and Buyer, this Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Shareholder, enforceable against the Shareholder in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by the General Enforceability Exceptions.

There are no Securities of the Company except for the Common Stock. Schedule 3.2(a) sets forth a list of all Common Stock held by the Company in its treasury. Schedule 3.2(a) sets forth a true, correct and complete list of the number of shares of Common Stock held by each registered holder thereof as of the date hereof, and such list sets forth the true, correct and complete name, address and contact number for each such registered holder. The Shareholder owns all right, title and interest in and to all Securities of the Company. No Person other than the Shareholder owns, legally or beneficially, or has the right to acquire or cause the issuance of, or has any rights of first refusal or preemptive or other similar right, or voting rights with respect to, any Securities of the Company.

(b) All of the issued and outstanding Securities of the Company have been duly authorized and validly issued, are fully paid and non-assessable and are not subject to and were not issued in violation of any purchase option, call option, right of first refusal, pre-emptive right, subscription right or any similar right under any provision of the Alabama Business Corporation Act, the Company’s Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws or any contract to which the Company or the Shareholder is a party or is otherwise bound or which exists.

Except as set forth on Schedule 3.9(a), none of the Company Plans provides benefits for any individual who, at the time the benefit is to be provided, is a former director, officer, or employee of, or other provider of services to, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, except as may be required under the Consolidate Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended (or similar state law) and at the expense of the participant or the participant’s beneficiary, or except for any Company Plan which meets the qualification requirements of Section 401(a) of the Code.

(b) The Company Plans have been administered in all material respects in accordance with the applicable provisions of ERISA and the Code, and all applicable laws. Each Company Plan that is intended to qualify under Section 401(a) of the Code has (A) either (1) received a favorable determination from the IRS regarding its qualification thereunder, or the expiration of the requisite period under applicable regulations promulgated by the IRS under the Code or IRS pronouncements in which to apply for such determination letter and to make any amendments necessary to obtain a favorable determination has not occurred, or (2) has been established under a prototype plan for which an IRS opinion letter has been obtained by the plan sponsor and is valid as to the adopting employer, and (B) to the knowledge of the Company, nothing has occurred or could reasonably be expected to occur that has caused or would reasonably be expected to cause the loss of such qualification or the imposition of any penalty or Tax.

(c) There is neither any pending litigation, suit, or proceeding nor, to the knowledge of the Company, any litigation, suit or proceeding threatened in writing against the Company related to the Company Plans which would be reasonably likely to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Company Material Adverse Effect. Other than claims for benefits arising in the ordinary course of business of the Company Plans, to the knowledge of the Company, no claims, investigations, lawsuits, arbitrations or other controversies are pending or threatened against the Company Plans, or any trustee, fiduciary, custodian, administrator or other person holding or controlling assets of any Company Plan and, to the knowledge of the Company, no basis for any such claim exists.

(d) Except as expressly contemplated by this Agreement or as set forth on Schedule 3.9(d), neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will (i) result in any payment becoming due to any Employee (as defined below) of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or under any Company Plan, (ii) increase any benefits otherwise payable under any Company Plan or (iii) result in the acceleration of the time of payment or vesting of any such benefits under any Company Plan.

(e) No non-exempt “prohibited transaction” (within the meaning of Section 4975 of the Code and/or Section 406 of ERISA) has occurred with respect to any Company Plan. The Company and its Subsidiaries have not been notified that any Company Plan is under audit or investigation by any Governmental Authority, and no Company Plan is subject to, or has in the past been subject to, any voluntary compliance, amnesty, closing agreement or other similar program.

(f) Except as set forth on Schedule 3.9(f), each Company Plan may, without any liability (other than liability for benefits already accrued under such Company Plan) be amended, terminated or otherwise discontinued at any time.

(g) Neither the Company nor any ERISA Affiliate is obligated to make any parachute payments as such term is defined in Section 280G of the Code, and neither is a party to any agreement that would reasonably be likely to obligate it, or any successor in interest, to make any parachute payments that will not be deductible under Section 280G of the Code. Neither the Company nor any ERISA Affiliate is obligated to make reimbursement or gross-up payments to any person in respect to excess parachute payments. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, no economic benefit that could be received (whether in cash or property or the vesting of property) as a result of the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including as a result of termination of employment on or following the Closing Date, by or for the benefit of any director, officer, employee or consultant of the Company or any of its Affiliates who is a “disqualified individual” (within the meaning of the Treasury Regulation Section 1.280G-1) would be characterized as an “excess parachute payment” (within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(1) of the Code). No “disqualified individual” is entitled to receive any additional payment from the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or any other Person in the event that the excise tax required by Section 4999(a) of the Code is imposed on such “disqualified individual.”

(h) Each Company Plan that is a “nonqualified deferred compensation plan” (as defined in Section 409A(d)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code) and was in existence prior to October 3, 2004, has not been “materially modified” (within the meaning of Section 885(d)(2)(B) of the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 and any applicable guidance issued thereunder) since October 3, 2004, in a manner which would cause amounts deferred in taxable years beginning before January 1, 2005 under such plan to be subject to Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.9(h), each Company Plan that is a “nonqualified deferred compensation plan” (as defined in Section 409A(d)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code) and which has not been terminated has been operated in good faith compliance with the provisions of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code and Notice 2005-1 since January 1, 2005, and no amount payable or benefit available under any Company Plan is taxable to any individual by reason of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code.

This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by Parent and Buyer and, assuming due and valid authorization, execution and delivery hereof by each of the Company and the Shareholder, is a valid and binding obligation of each of Parent and Buyer, as the case may be, enforceable against each of them in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by the General Enforceability Exceptions.

Section 4.3. No Conflict; Consents. The execution and delivery by Parent and Buyer of this Agreement, and the consummation by Parent and Buyer of the Transaction and the other

transactions contemplated hereby in accordance with the terms hereof, do not (i) violate, conflict with or result in a default (whether after the giving of notice, lapse of time or both) under, or give rise to a right of termination of, any contract, agreement, permit, license, authorization or obligation to which Parent or Buyer is a party or by which its assets are bound; (ii) violate any provision of the organizational documents of Parent or Buyer; (iii) cause Parent or Buyer to violate any provision of any law, regulation or rule, or any order of, or any restriction imposed by, any court or other Governmental Authority applicable to Parent or Buyer; or (iv) except as set forth on Schedule 4.3, require from Parent or Buyer any notice to, declaration or filing with, or consent or approval of any Governmental Authority or other third party.

All commitment and other fees required to be paid under the Commitment Letter prior to the date hereof have been paid. As of the date hereof, Parent believes in good faith that it will be successful in obtaining the Financing contemplated by the Commitment Letter.

Section 4.5. Brokers. Neither Parent, Buyer, nor any of either of their Affiliates has entered into any contract, arrangement or understanding that will result in the obligation of such Person to pay any finder’s fees, brokerage or agent’s commissions or other like payments in connection with the negotiations leading to this Agreement or consummation of the Transaction.

The parties hereto shall promptly respond to any requests for additional information from any Governmental Authority or other third party in respect thereof. Parent and the Shareholder shall each pay one-half of all filing and related fees in connection with any such filings that must be made by any of the parties under the HSR Act.

Parent shall provide to the Shareholder and the Company all information deemed reasonably necessary by the Shareholder and the Company for the completion of the FCC Forms 394 required to be filed in order to obtain the approvals necessary to transfer the Franchises (including information reasonably required by the terms of the Franchises and requested by the Company), and agrees to cooperate reasonably, diligently, and in good faith with the Shareholder and the Company in the preparation of such FCC Forms 394 to permit the filing of such FCC Forms 394. Following the execution hereof, until the Closing, the Shareholder and the Company shall timely send or cause to be sent all required renewal letters with respect to the Franchises pursuant to Section 626(a) of the Cable Act to the proper Governmental Authority. The Shareholder and the Company shall not and shall cause its Subsidiaries to not, without Parent’s prior written consent, agree or accede to any material modifications or amendments to, or in connection with, or the imposition of any material condition to the renewal of, any of the Franchises that, individually or in the aggregate, will impose a material obligation on Parent following the Closing. The Shareholder and the Company shall, to the extent reasonably practicable, notify Parent of all meetings, hearings and other discussions before or with Governmental Authorities in connection with the renewal or extension of any Franchise, any governmental authorization relating to a Franchise or the granting of a Required Consent (as defined below) such that Parent’s representatives can participate to the extent reasonably practicable in such proceedings.

(d) Section 6.3(b) notwithstanding, the Shareholder and the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to prepare and file, or cause to be prepared and filed, within 30 Business Days after the date of this Agreement, all applications required to be filed with the FCC and with any other Governmental Authority that are necessary for the transfer of control of any Company Licenses in connection with the consummation of the Transaction. Parent shall provide to the Shareholder and the Company all information deemed reasonably necessary by the Shareholder and the Company for the completion of the applications necessary to obtain the approvals necessary to transfer the Company Licenses (including information reasonably required by the terms of the Company Licenses and requested by the Shareholder and the Company), and agrees to cooperate reasonably, diligently, and in good faith with the Shareholder and the Company in the preparation of such applications to permit the filing of such applications. From the date of this Agreement until the Closing Date, upon Parent’s request, the Shareholder and the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain an extension or renewal of any Company License that has expired or will expire prior to July 31, 2007, and such extension or renewal shall be for a term reasonably requested by Parent and shall otherwise be on substantially the same or on other commercially reasonable terms that are reasonably acceptable to Parent. The Shareholder and the Company shall not and shall cause its Subsidiaries to not, without Parent’s prior written consent, agree or accede to any material modifications or amendments to, or in connection with, or the imposition of any material condition to the renewal of, any of the Company Licenses that, individually or in the aggregate, will impose a material obligation on Parent following the Closing. The Shareholder and the Company shall, to the extent reasonably practicable, notify Parent of all meetings, hearings and other discussions

before or with Governmental Authorities in connection with the renewal or extension of any Company License or the granting of a Required Consent such that Parent’s representatives can participate to the extent reasonably practicable in such proceedings.

From the date of this Agreement until the Closing, upon Parent’s reasonable request, the Shareholder and the Company shall seek to obtain any such extension or renewal of any Franchise that has expired or will expire after the date hereof and prior to the date which is 30 months after the Closing Date in accordance with its terms in the ordinary course of business, provided, that, in any event, the Shareholder and the Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such extension or renewal (i) with a term of 36 months following the Closing and (ii) on substantially the same or on other commercially reasonable terms that are reasonably acceptable to Parent.

(f) From the date of this Agreement until the Closing Date, upon Parent’s request, the Shareholder and the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain an extension or renewal of any lease set forth on Schedule 6.3(f), and such extension or renewal shall be for a term of up to 36 months (as so requested by Parent) and shall otherwise be on substantially the same or on other commercially reasonable terms that are reasonably acceptable to Parent; provided, however, that no such extension or renewal shall require the Company to incur or pay any extension or renewal fees; provided further, however, that no ordinary course rental increase will be considered an extension or renewal fee.

(g) The Shareholder and the Company shall not, and shall not permit any Subsidiary to, agree, without Parent’s prior written consent to any material change to the terms of any Franchise, Company License or Material Contract as a condition to obtaining any consent or approval related to such Franchise, Company License or Material Contract. If in connection with obtaining any consent or approval, a Governmental Authority or other third party seeks to impose any condition or adverse change to any Franchise, Company License or Material Contract to which such consent or approval relates as a requirement for granting such consent or approval, the Shareholder and the Company shall promptly notify Parent of such fact, and the Shareholder and the Company shall not agree to such condition or adverse change unless Parent shall, in its reasonable discretion, consent to such condition or change in writing.

(h) Each of Parent and Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to assist the Shareholder and the Company in obtaining the Required Consents, including (i) providing to such third parties and Governmental Authorities such financial statements and other financial information as such third parties or Governmental Authority may reasonably request and (ii) agreeing to commercially reasonable adjustments to the terms of the Franchises, Company Licenses and Material Contracts with such third parties and Governmental Authorities (provided that neither party hereto shall be required to agree to any adjustment increasing the amount payable with respect thereto).

Section 6.4. Officers’ and Directors’ Indemnification.

(a) In the event of any threatened or actual claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, whether civil, criminal or administrative, including, without limitation, any such claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation in which any Person who is now, or has been at any time prior to the date hereof, or who becomes prior to the Closing Date, a director, officer, employee, fiduciary or agent of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (the “Indemnified Parties”) is, or is threatened to be, made a party based in whole or in part on, or arising in whole or in part out of, or pertaining to (i) the fact that he or she is or was a director, officer, employee, fiduciary or agent of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or is or was serving at the request of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries as a director, officer, employee, fiduciary or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise or (ii) the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby, whether in any case asserted or arising before or after the Closing Date, the Company, Parent and Buyer agree to cooperate and use their reasonable best efforts to defend against and respond thereto. It is understood and agreed that the Company shall indemnify and hold harmless, and after the Closing Date Parent shall indemnify and hold harmless, as and to the full extent permitted by applicable law, each Indemnified Party against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs, expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement in connection with any such threatened or actual claim, action, suit, demand, proceeding or investigation, and in the event of any such threatened or actual claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation (whether asserted or arising before or after the Closing Date), (A) the Company, and Parent after the Closing Date, shall promptly pay expenses incurred by each Indemnified Party as the same are incurred in advance of the final disposition of any claim, suit, proceeding or investigation to such Indemnified Party, (B) the Indemnified Parties may retain counsel satisfactory to them, and the Company, and Parent after the Closing Date, shall pay all fees and expenses of such counsel for the Indemnified Parties within thirty (30) days after statements therefor are received and (C) the Company, and Parent after the Closing Date, will use their respective reasonable best efforts to assist in the vigorous defense of any such matter; provided, however, that none of the Company or Parent shall be liable for any settlement effected without its prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld); and provided further that the Company and Parent shall have no obligation hereunder to any Indemnified Party when and if a court of competent jurisdiction shall ultimately determine, and such determination shall have become final and non-appealable, that indemnification of such Indemnified Party in the manner contemplated hereby is prohibited by applicable law. Any Indemnified Party wishing to claim indemnification under this Section 6.4, upon learning of any such claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, shall notify the Company, and Parent after the Closing Date, thereof; provided that the failure to so notify shall not affect the obligations of the Company and Parent except to the extent such failure to notify materially prejudices such party.

(b) Parent and Buyer agree that all rights to indemnification or exculpation existing in favor of, and all limitations on the personal liability of, each present and former director, officer, employee, fiduciary and agent of the Company and its Subsidiaries provided for in their respective articles of incorporation or by-laws or otherwise in effect as of the date hereof shall continue in full force and effect for a period of six (6) years from the Closing Date; provided, however, that all rights to indemnification in respect of any claims asserted or made within such

period shall continue until the disposition of such claim. From and after the Closing Date, Parent also agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the present and former officers and directors of the Company and its Subsidiaries in respect of acts or omissions occurring prior to the Closing Date to the extent provided in any written indemnification agreements between the Company and/or one or more of its Subsidiaries.

(c) On the Closing Date, Parent shall purchase an extended reporting period endorsement under the Company’s existing directors’ and officers’ liability insurance coverage for the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ directors and officers in a form reasonably acceptable to the Company that shall provide such directors and officers with coverage for six (6) years following the Closing Date of not less than the existing coverage and have other terms not materially less favorable to, the insured Persons than the directors’ and officers’ liability insurance coverage presently maintained by the Company. Parent shall maintain such policy in full force and effect, and continue to honor the obligations thereunder.

(d) The obligations under this Section 6.4 shall not be terminated or modified in such a manner as to adversely affect any Indemnified Party to whom this Section 6.4 applies without the consent of such Indemnified Party (it being expressly agreed that the Indemnified Parties to whom this Section 6.4 applies shall be third party beneficiaries of this Section 6.4 and shall be entitled to enforce the covenants contained herein).

(e) In the event Parent or its successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfers or conveys all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any person, then, and in each such case, to the extent necessary proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of Parent assume the obligations set forth in this Section 6.4.

Section 6.5. Tax Matters.

(a) Preparation and Filing of Tax Returns.

(i) The Shareholder shall prepare and file, or shall cause to be prepared and filed, all Tax Returns of the Company and its Subsidiaries with respect to Pre-Closing Periods which are due after the Closing Date, and the Shareholder shall use the Company’s certified public accountant, Jackson Thornton LLP, to prepare such Tax Returns, so long as such accountant is willing to perform such services upon reasonable terms and conditions, and shall provide each such Tax Return to Parent for its review and comment at least fifteen (15) Business Days prior to the date on which such Tax Return is to be filed, and the Shareholder shall make changes to each such Tax Return as are reasonably requested by Parent so long as such changes are permitted by applicable law. Such Tax Returns shall be prepared in a manner consistent with past practices except as required by changes in applicable law. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Shareholder shall include any income, gain, loss, deduction or other tax items for such periods on his Tax Returns in a manner consistent with the Schedule K-1s prepared by the Company for such periods. Further, the Shareholder shall cause any amounts shown to be due on such Tax Returns to be remitted to the applicable taxing authorities no later than the due date of such Tax Returns.

(ii) Parent (and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates) shall not amend any Tax Returns of the Company or its Subsidiaries for any Pre-Closing Period without the prior written consent of the Shareholder, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

(b) End of Tax Year. Parent shall not take any action, or permit any action to be taken, that may prevent the tax year of the Company and its Subsidiaries from ending for federal and applicable state, local and foreign income tax purposes at the end of the day on the Closing Date.

(c) S Corporation Status. The Company and the Shareholder shall not take or allow any action, other than the sale of the Company’s stock pursuant to this Agreement, that would result in the revocation or termination of the Company’s status as a validly electing S corporation within the meaning of Code §1361 and §1362 (and corresponding provisions of state or local Tax law).

(d) Cooperation on Tax Matters. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Sections 8.4 and 8.5, Parent and the Shareholder shall cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other parties, in connection with the filing of Tax Returns or any amended Tax Returns, any Tax audits, Tax proceedings or other Tax-related claims, the authorization and execution of any appropriate powers of attorney to accomplish the foregoing, allowing the Shareholder to review Tax Returns to determine or verify the proper amounts payable thereunder, and any mechanisms or payment processes reasonably requested by the Shareholder to pay any Tax refunds to the Shareholder to the extent, but only to the extent, that the Shareholder is entitled thereto pursuant to Section 6.5(f) hereof. Such cooperation shall include, upon the Shareholder’s request, providing records and information that are reasonably relevant to any such matters, making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information, and explaining any materials provided pursuant to this Section 6.5. Without the prior written consent of the Shareholder, neither Parent nor Buyer will make any election under Code §338 (or any corresponding provision of state or local Tax law). Parent and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates shall not destroy or dispose of any Tax workpapers, schedules or other materials and documents supporting Tax Returns of the Company and its Subsidiaries for Pre-Closing Periods until the seventh (7th) anniversary of the Closing Date without the prior written consent of the Shareholder and, before any disposition or destruction of such materials at any time, Parent shall give the Shareholder the opportunity to take possession of such materials and documents.

(e) Transfer Taxes. All transfer, value added, excise, stock transfer, stamp, recording, registration and any similar Taxes (including penalties and interest thereon, “Transfer Taxes”) that become payable in connection with the Transaction and other transactions contemplated hereby shall be borne 50% by Parent and 50% by the Shareholder. The applicable parties shall cooperate in filing such forms and documents as may be necessary to permit any such Transfer Tax to be assessed and paid on or prior to the Closing Date in accordance with any available pre-sale filing procedure, and to obtain any exemption or refund of any such Transfer Tax. The Shareholder shall have no obligation for any Taxes that arise from actions taken by Parent or Buyer after the Closing Date with respect to the Company or its assets.

(f) Tax Refunds. The Shareholder shall be entitled to receive from the Company (or its Affiliates) all Tax refunds for Taxes paid with respect to Pre-Closing Periods. The Shareholder shall have no obligation for any Taxes that arise from actions taken by Parent or Buyer after the Closing Date with respect to the Company or its assets.

Section 6.6. Books and Records. Parent and Buyer shall, and shall cause the Company and each of the Company’s Subsidiaries to, until the seventh (7th) anniversary of the Closing Date, retain all books, records and other documents pertaining to the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries in existence on the Closing Date and to make the same available for inspection and copying by the Shareholder at the expense of the Shareholder during the normal business hours of Parent, Buyer, the Company or such Subsidiary, as applicable, upon reasonable request and upon reasonable notice. No such books, records or documents shall be destroyed after the seventh (7th) anniversary of the Closing Date without first advising the Shareholder in writing and giving the Shareholder a reasonable opportunity to obtain possession thereof.

Section 6.7. Employment Matters.

(a) As of the Closing Date, the Company shall have terminated all Company Plans except for those Company Plans that Parent requests not be terminated. Parent shall take all necessary action so that, after the Closing Date, any current or former employee of the Company who is eligible to participate in a Company Plan as of the Closing Date shall either be eligible to continue his or her participation in such Company Plan or participate in a corresponding employee benefit plan maintained by Parent or any of its subsidiaries, subject to the terms of such corresponding plan. Unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the parties, within thirty (30) days prior to the Closing Date, Parent shall provide written notification to Company of the Company Plans to be terminated and Company plans to be maintained post-Closing. Parent shall determine which current or former employees of the Company will continue participation in a Company Plan after the Closing Date and which will commence participation in a corresponding employee benefit plan maintained by Parent or any of its subsidiaries after the Closing Date and, with respect to current or former employees who transfer participation to such a corresponding plan, when such transfer will occur. Parent need not treat all current and former employees of the Company (including those who are similarly situated) in the same manner with respect to which plans they participate in and when, if at all, they transfer participation from a Company Plan to a corresponding employee benefit plan maintained by Parent or any of its subsidiaries. Parent may take such actions (or cause its subsidiaries or the Company after the Closing Date to take such actions) as are necessary or advisable to accomplish the foregoing, including, without limitation, amending the eligibility provisions of the employee benefit plans maintained by Parent, its subsidiaries or the Company after the Closing Date.

(b) Except as otherwise provided in this Section 6.7, nothing in this Agreement shall be interpreted as limiting the power of the Company after the Closing Date to amend or terminate any particular Company Plan or any other particular employee benefit plan, program, agreement or policy or as requiring the Company after the Closing Date or Parent to offer to continue (other than as required by its terms) any Company Plan or any written employment contract or to continue the employment of any specific person; provided, however, that no such termination or amendment may take away benefits or any other payments already accrued as of the time of such termination or amendment without the consent of such person, except as allowed by law.

Section 6.8. Interim Financial Statements; Other Reports.

(a) Not later than 30 days after the end of each calendar month and each fiscal quarter following the date hereof and through and until the Closing Date, the Company shall prepare and deliver to Parent current and updated consolidated aging reports, unaudited balance sheets, statements of cash flows (including detailed capital expenditures) and statements of operations, each as of the end of and for each calendar month and calendar quarter following the date hereof and certified by the Company’s Chief Financial Officer (collectively, the “Interim Financial Statements”), and such Interim Financial Statements will be prepared in good faith using reasonable allocations and assumptions from the books and records of account of the Company and its Subsidiaries, which books and records shall be kept in the normal course of business and in accordance with GAAP, and in accordance with the Company’s past practices.

(b) Not later than thirty (30) days after the end of each calendar month ended following the date hereof and through and until the Closing Date, the Company shall prepare and deliver to Parent updated subscriber information, including gross connections by product, disconnections by product, churn by product and average revenue per customer by product, as of the end of and for each full calendar month following the date hereof.

Section 6.9. Exclusivity. The Shareholder agrees on his own behalf and on behalf of his Affiliates that following the date hereof until the earlier of (a) the Closing Date or (b) the termination of this Agreement, the Shareholder shall not, and shall cause his Affiliates and their respective directors, employees, representatives and agents (collectively, the “Shareholder Parties”) not to, discuss, pursue or enter into any contract with respect to a possible sale or other disposition (whether by merger, reorganization, recapitalization or otherwise) of all or any part of the Securities of the Company or its Subsidiaries or all or any material part of his or their assets with any other Person (an “Acquisition Proposal”) or provide any information to any Person other than Parent and Buyer (and their representatives) with respect to an Acquisition Proposal. The Shareholder shall, and shall cause the Company Parties to, (i) immediately cease and cause to be terminated any and all contracts, discussions and negotiations with all Persons other than Parent and Buyer (and their representatives) regarding the foregoing and (ii) promptly notify Parent if any Acquisition Proposal or any inquiry or contact with any Person other than Parent and Buyer (and their representatives) with respect thereto is subsequently made to any Company Party.

Section 6.10. Further Action. At and following the Closing, each party hereto will execute such further documents and instruments and take such further actions as may reasonably be requested by one or more of the other parties to consummate the Transaction and effect the other purposes of this Agreement.

Section 6.11. Financing.

(a) Parent shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to (i) arrange and obtain the Financing on the terms and conditions described in the Commitment Letter, (ii) negotiate and finalize definitive agreements with respect thereto on the terms and conditions contained in the Commitment Letter, (iii) satisfy on a timely basis all conditions applicable to Parent or Buyer in such definitive agreements that are within their control and (iv) consummate the Financing no later than the Closing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Parent shall not be prohibited from

obtaining and consummating financing on terms other than those contemplated by the Commitment Letter, provided that Parent’s efforts to obtain such alternate financing terms are not reasonably expected to materially delay or prevent the Financing and consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(b) In the event that any portion of the Financing becomes unavailable in the manner or from the sources contemplated in the Commitment Letter, (i) Parent shall promptly deliver a written notice of such fact to the Shareholder (the “Financing Termination Notice”), and (ii) Parent shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain alternative financing from alternative sources, on terms, reasonably acceptable to Parent and that Parent does not reasonably expect to materially delay the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. If Parent is successful in obtaining such alternative financing, Parent shall inform the Shareholder of such fact by delivering written notice to the Shareholder (the “Alternative Financing Notice”). If Parent has not delivered the Alternative Financing Notice to the Shareholder by the ninetieth (90th) day following the date of delivery to the Shareholder of the Financing Termination Notice or such later date as agreed to in writing by the parties, (i) Parent may terminate this Agreement upon three (3) Business Days prior written notice to the Shareholder without any liability and (ii) the Shareholder may terminate this Agreement upon three (3) Business Days prior written notice to Parent without any liability, in each case, so long as no Alternative Financing Notice is received by the Shareholder prior to the effective date of such termination; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 6.11(b) shall be deemed to affect any party’s right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1.

ARTICLE VIII -SURVIVAL OF REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES;

INDEMNIFICATION

Section 8.1. Survival of Representations, Warranties and Covenants.

(a) All covenants in this Agreement shall survive the Closing and remain in full force and effect indefinitely (unless any such covenant by its terms terminates as of an earlier date). Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, each of the representations and warranties contained in Article III and Article IV will terminate, without further action, on the date that is the twelve (12) month anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Anniversary Date”), except for Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.8, 3.10(a), 3.10(d), 3.14, 3.16, 4.1, 4.2 and 4.5, which representations and warranties shall continue until expiration of their respective statutes of limitations.

(b) The indemnification contained in this Article VIII will survive the Closing and shall remain in effect:

(i) to the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations with respect to any indemnifiable claim related to the breach of any covenant or the breach of any representation or warranty contained in Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.8, 3.10(a), 3.10(d), 3.14, 3.16, 4.1, 4.2 and 4.5; and

(ii) until the Anniversary Date for any indemnifiable claims that are not specified in Section 8.1(b)(i).

Unless a claim for indemnification with respect to any alleged breach of any representation or warranty is asserted by notice given as herein provided that identifies a particular breach and the underlying facts relating thereto, which notice is given within the applicable period of survival for such representation or warranty, such claim may not be pursued and is irrevocably waived after such time. Without limiting the generality or effect of the foregoing sentence, no claim for indemnification with respect to any representation or warranty will be deemed to have been properly made except (i) to the extent it is based upon a Third Party Claim (as defined below) or (ii) to the extent based on Indemnifiable Losses (as defined below) incurred by an Indemnitee (as defined below) for which indemnification is provided under Section 8.2(a) or Section 8.2(b), and such indemnification claim is made or brought prior to the expiration of the survival period for such representation or warranty. For purposes of clarity, claims asserted in writing before the applicable period of survival for such representation or warranty terminates shall be deemed timely made regardless of whether litigation or arbitration proceedings are commenced by such date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if either party makes a claim for indemnification in writing and in accordance with the terms of this Agreement with respect to any matter for which indemnification is provided under Section 8.2(a) or Section 8.2(b) prior to the applicable expiration date as provided in Section 8.1(b), the indemnification contained in this Article VIII with respect to such claim shall survive with respect to all Indemnifiable Losses, whenever incurred, until such claim is finally resolved in accordance with the terms hereof.

Section 8.2. Indemnification.

(a) Following the Closing, and subject to the other sections of this Article VIII, the Shareholder will indemnify, defend and hold harmless Parent, Buyer and their Affiliates and their respective directors, officers, and agents from and against all Indemnifiable Losses, relating to, resulting from or arising out of:

(i) any inaccuracy in or breach of any of the representations and warranties made by the Company or the Shareholder in Article III and the certificate provided pursuant to Section 7.2(a) of this Agreement; and

(ii) a breach by the Company or the Shareholder of any covenant or agreement of the Company or the Shareholder contained in this Agreement.

(b) Following the Closing, and subject to the other sections of this Article VIII, Parent will indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Shareholder from and against all Indemnifiable Losses relating to, resulting from or arising out of:

(i) any inaccuracy in or breach of any of the representations or warranties made by Parent or Buyer in Article IV and the certificate provided pursuant to Section 7.3(a) of this Agreement; and

(ii) a breach by Parent or Buyer of any covenant or agreement of Parent or Buyer contained in this Agreement.

(c) All payments made on behalf of the Shareholder (including out of the Escrow Fund) by Parent or by Buyer (or any of their respective Affiliates), as the case may be, to or for the benefit of other parties pursuant to Section 6.5 or this Article VIII shall be treated as adjustments to the Total Consideration for tax purposes, and such agreed treatment shall govern for purposes of this Agreement. Parent, Buyer and the Company shall file all Tax Returns consistent with such treatment. As between Parent and the Shareholder, upon the settlement or resolution of any claim for indemnification by Parent or Buyer while the Escrow Fund remains held by the Escrow Agent, Parent and the Shareholder agree to provide joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent regarding the disbursement of funds to the applicable party, all in accordance with the Escrow Agreement.

Section 8.3. Limitations on Liability.

(a) For purposes of this Agreement:

(i) “Indemnification Payment” means any amount of Indemnifiable Losses required to be paid pursuant to this Agreement;

(ii) “Indemnitee” means any Person entitled to indemnification under this Agreement;

(iii) “Indemnifying Party” means any Person required to provide indemnification under this Agreement; and

(iv) “Indemnifiable Losses” means any losses, liabilities, damages, costs, expenses, assessments, fines, interest, penalties, awards, deficiencies and other obligations and expenses (including reasonable out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees and expenses and other out-of-pocket expenses incurred in investigating, preparing or defending the foregoing) actually incurred in connection with any actual or threatened (provided that any such threats are in writing) actions, suits, demands, assessments, judgments and settlements, in any such case (x) reduced by the amount of insurance proceeds actually recovered from any Person or entity with respect thereto and (y) excluding any such losses, liabilities, damages, costs and expenses to the extent that the underlying liability or obligation is the result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Indemnitee.

(b) As between the Company, any Affiliate of the Company and the Shareholder, on the one hand, and Parent and any Affiliate of Parent, on the other hand, the remedies, rights and obligations set forth in this Article VIII will be the exclusive remedies, rights and obligations with respect to the liabilities and obligations referred to in Sections 8.2(a)(i) and 8.2(b)(i) and any breach of the representations or warranties set forth in this Agreement, except with respect to matters of fraud. Without limiting the foregoing, as a material inducement to entering into this Agreement, to the fullest extent permitted by law, each of the parties waives any claim or cause of action that it otherwise might assert based upon any breach of the representations or warranties set forth in this Agreement, except for claims or causes of action brought under and subject to the terms and conditions of this Article VIII and except with respect to matters of fraud.

(c) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or of any applicable law, except for Indemnifiable Losses arising out of or relating to any inaccuracy of representations and warranties under Sections 3.1, 3.2 and 3.8 (which shall not be subject to this Section 8.3(c)), no Indemnitee will be entitled to indemnification for a claim against an Indemnifying Party for any Indemnifiable Losses arising out of or relating to any inaccuracy of representations or warranties under Sections 8.2(a)(i) or 8.2(b)(i) until the aggregate amount of Indemnifiable Losses incurred by such Indemnitee exceeds $100,000 (all amounts up to and including such amount, the “Basket Amount”); provided, however, that in the event the aggregate amount of Indemnifiable Losses incurred by such Indemnitee exceeds the Basket Amount, then the Indemnifying Party shall be liable for all Indemnifiable Losses, including the Basket Amount.

(d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the indemnification obligation of the Shareholder under Section 8.2(a)(i) or the indemnification obligation of Parent under Section 8.2(b)(i) shall not exceed an amount equal to the Transaction Price, respectively (the “Cap Limitation”); provided, however, that the Cap Limitation shall not apply to breaches of the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.8, 3.10(a), 3.10(d), 3.14, 4.1 and 4.2 or to matters of fraud. The Shareholder shall be obligated to provide indemnification for all Indemnifiable Losses that may be asserted pursuant to Section 8.2(a). Parent shall be obligated to provide indemnification for all Indemnifiable Losses that may be asserted pursuant to Section 8.2(b). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article VIII or Section 6.5, all amounts due from the Shareholder pursuant to Article VIII or Section 6.5 shall be paid (i) out of the Escrow Fund to the extent that funds are then held in the Escrow Fund and (ii) if at any time or from time to time, the funds then held in the Escrow Fund are insufficient to pay such

amounts, then the Shareholder shall promptly pay the amount of such deficiency directly to Parent; provided, however, that the Shareholder shall not be obligated to reimburse Parent for an aggregate amount greater than the Transaction Price.

(e) No Indemnifying Party shall be liable to or obligated to indemnify any Indemnitee hereunder for any punitive or exemplary damages, or any consequential, special or multiple damages, except to the extent such damages have been recovered by a third person (including a Governmental Authority) and are the subject of a Third Party Claim for which indemnification is available under this Article VIII.

(f) The Company, Parent and the Shareholder shall cooperate with each other with respect to resolving any claim or liability with respect to which one Party is obligated to indemnify the other Party hereunder, including by making commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate or resolve any such claim or liability.

(g) No Indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification hereunder for any Indemnifiable Losses arising from a breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement set forth herein (and the amount of any Indemnifiable Losses incurred in respect of such breach shall not be included in the calculation of any limitations on indemnification set forth herein) to the extent that such liability is specifically included in the calculation of the Estimated Working Capital and/or the Closing Working Capital.

(h) Any liability for indemnification under this Section 8.3 shall be determined without duplication of recovery by reason of the state of facts giving rise to such liability constituting a breach of more than one representation, warranty, covenant, or agreement.

Section 8.4. Defense of Claims.

(a) If any Indemnitee receives notice of the assertion of any claim or of the commencement of any action or proceeding by any Third Party (a “Third Party Claim”) against such Indemnitee, with respect to which an Indemnifying Party is obligated to provide indemnification under this Agreement, the Indemnitee will give such Indemnifying Party reasonably prompt written notice thereof, but in any event not later than ten (10) calendar days after receipt of notice of such Third Party Claim; provided, however, that the failure of the Indemnitee to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall only relieve the Indemnifying Party from its obligation to indemnify the Indemnitee pursuant to this Article VIII to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure (whether as a result of the forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses or otherwise). Upon receipt of notification of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled, upon written notice to the Indemnitee, to assume the investigation and defense thereof; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to control the defense unless and until the Indemnifying Party agrees in writing to indemnify the Indemnitee with respect to such Third Party Claim, subject to the applicable limitations set forth herein. Whether or not the Indemnifying Party elects to assume the investigation and defense of any Third Party Claim, the Indemnitee shall have the right to employ separate counsel and to participate in the investigation and defense thereof; provided, however, that the Indemnitee shall pay the fees and disbursements of such separate counsel unless (i) the employment of such separate counsel has been specifically authorized in writing by the Indemnifying Party, (ii) the Indemnifying Party has failed to assume the defense of such

Third Party Claim within a reasonable time after receipt of notice thereof, or (iii) the named parties to the proceeding in which such claim, demand, action or cause of action has been asserted include both the Indemnifying Party and such Indemnitee and, in the reasonable judgment of counsel to such Indemnitee, there exists one or more defenses that are in conflict with those available to the Indemnifying Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for the fees and disbursements of more than one counsel for all Indemnitees in connection with any one proceeding or any similar or related proceedings arising from the same general allegations or circumstances. Without the prior written consent of the Indemnitee, the Indemnifying Party will not enter into any settlement of any Third Party Claim that would lead to liability or create any financial or other obligation on the part of the Indemnitee unless such settlement includes as an unconditional term thereof the release of the Indemnitee from all liability in respect of such Third Party Claim. If a settlement offer solely for money damages is made by the applicable third party claimant (which offer provides for a full and unconditional release of the Indemnitee), and the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnitee in writing of the Indemnifying Party’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 continue to contest such claim, free of any participation by the Indemnifying Party, and the amount of any ultimate liability with respect to such Third Party Claim that the Indemnifying Party has an obligation to pay hereunder shall be limited to the lesser of (1) the amount of the settlement offer that the Indemnitee declined to accept plus the Indemnifiable Losses of the Indemnitee relating to such Third Party Claim through the date of its rejection of the settlement offer or (2) the aggregate Indemnifiable Losses of the Indemnitee with respect to such claim.

(b) Any claim by an Indemnitee on account of an Indemnifiable Loss that does not result from a Third Party Claim will be asserted by giving the Indemnifying Party reasonably prompt written notice thereof, but in any event not later than 30 calendar days after the incurrence thereof, provided, however, that the failure of the Indemnitee to notify the Indemnifying Party shall only relieve the Indemnifying Party from its obligation to indemnify the Indemnitee pursuant to this Article VIII to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure (whether as a result of the forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses or otherwise). The Indemnifying Party will have a period of 30 calendar days within which to respond in writing to such claim. If the Indemnifying Party does not so respond within such thirty (30) calendar day period, the Indemnifying Party will be deemed to have rejected such claim, in which event the Indemnitee will be free to pursue such remedies as may be available to the Indemnitee on the terms and subject to the provisions of this Article VIII.

(c) If, after the making of any Indemnification Payment, the amount of the Indemnifiable Loss to which such payment relates is reduced by actual recovery, settlement or otherwise under any insurance coverage, or pursuant to any claim, recovery, settlement or payment by or against any other entity, the amount of such reduction (less any costs, expenses, premiums or Taxes incurred in connection therewith) will promptly be repaid by the Indemnitee to the Indemnifying Party. Upon making any Indemnification Payment, the Indemnifying Party will, to the extent of such Indemnification Payment, be subrogated to all rights of the Indemnitee against any third party that is not an Affiliate of the Indemnitee in respect of the Indemnifiable Loss to which the Indemnification Payment relates; provided that (i) the Indemnifying Party shall then be in compliance with its obligations under this Agreement in respect of such

Indemnifiable Loss, and (ii) until the Indemnitee recovers full payment of its Indemnifiable Loss, all claims of the Indemnifying Party against any such third party on account of said Indemnification Payment will be subrogated and subordinated in right of payment to the Indemnitee’s rights against such third party. Without limiting the generality or effect of any other provision of this Article VIII, each such Indemnitee and Indemnifying Party will duly execute upon request all instruments reasonably necessary to evidence and perfect the above-described subrogation and subordination rights.

Section 8.5. No Indemnifiable Claims Resulting From Governmental Authority Action. No party has any indemnifiable or otherwise compensable claim that any of the other parties’ representations or warranties is inaccurate, or that any covenant or agreement has been breached, if such claim is predicated on any new law or any action or order enacted or taken by a Governmental Authority after the Closing and that is effective retroactively for periods of time prior to the Closing; provided that the first party had no knowledge of such law, action or order prior to the Closing.

ARTICLE IX -TERMINATION, AMENDMENT AND WAIVER

Section 9.1. Termination. This Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the Closing Date:

(a) by the mutual written consent of Parent and the Shareholder; or

(b) by either the Shareholder, on the one hand, or Parent, on the other hand, by written notice to the other party:

(i) if any Governmental Authority of competent jurisdiction shall have issued an injunction or taken any other action (which injunction or other action the parties hereto shall use their commercially reasonable efforts (which shall not include any divestiture, commencement of litigation or other extraordinary act) to lift) that permanently restrains, enjoins or otherwise prohibits the consummation of the Transaction, and such injunction or other action shall have become final and non-appealable; or

(ii) if the consummation of the Transaction shall not have occurred on or before one hundred twenty (120) days following the date of this Agreement (the “End Date”), provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 9.1(b)(ii) shall not be available to any party whose failure to comply with any provision of this Agreement has been the cause of, or resulted in, the failure of the Transaction to occur on or before such date; or

(c) by Parent, if the Shareholder or the Company shall have breached or failed to perform in any respect any of its representations, warranties, covenants or other agreements set forth in this Agreement, or if any representations or warranties of the Shareholder or the Company shall have become untrue, which breach or failure to perform or untrue representation or warranty (A) would give rise to the failure of a condition set forth in Section 7.2 and (B) cannot be or has not been cured within thirty (30) days after Parent’s giving written notice to

the Shareholder of such breach (a “Company Material Breach”) (provided, in each case, that Parent is not then in Parent Material Breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or other agreement set forth in this Agreement); or

(d) by the Shareholder, if Parent or Buyer shall have breached or failed to perform in any respect any of its representations, warranties, covenants or other agreements set forth in this Agreement or if any representations or warranties of Parent or Buyer shall have become untrue, which breach or failure to perform (i) would give rise to the failure of a condition set forth in Section 7.3 and (ii) cannot be or has not been cured within thirty (30) days after the Shareholder’s giving written notice to Parent of such breach (a “Parent Material Breach”) (provided that the Shareholder and the Company are not then in Company Material Breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or other agreement set forth in this Agreement); or

(e) by either Parent or the Shareholder pursuant to Section 6.11(b).

Section 9.2. Effect of Termination. In the event of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.1, this Agreement shall forthwith become null and void and have no effect, without any liability on the part of Parent, Buyer, the Company or the Shareholder or their respective directors, officers, employees, partners, managers, members or stockholders and all rights and obligations of any party hereto shall cease, except for the agreements contained in Section 6.2, this Section 9.2 and Article X; provided, however, that nothing contained in this Section 9.2 shall relieve any party from liabilities or damages arising out of any breach by such party of any of its covenants contained in this Agreement.

Section 9.3. Amendment. This Agreement may be amended by the parties hereto by an instrument in writing signed on behalf of each of the parties hereto at any time.

Section 9.4. Extension; Waiver. At any time prior to the Closing Date, the parties hereto may, to the extent legally allowed, (a) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the other parties hereto, (b) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties of the other party contained herein or in any document delivered pursuant hereto and (c) waive compliance by the other party with any of the agreements or conditions contained herein. Any agreement on the part of a party hereto to any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in a written instrument signed on behalf of the party against which such extension or waiver is to be enforced. Waiver of any term or condition of this Agreement by a party shall not be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach or waiver of the same term or condition by such party, or a waiver of any other term or condition of this Agreement by such party.

Section 10.7. Interpretation. When a reference is made in this Agreement to an Article, Section, Schedule or Exhibit, such reference will be to an Article or Section of, or a Schedule or Exhibit to, this Agreement unless otherwise indicated. The table of contents and headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and will not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. Whenever the words “include”, “includes” or “including” are used in this Agreement, they will be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.” The words “hereof,” “herein” and “hereunder” and words of similar import when used in this Agreement will refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement. All terms used herein with initial capital letters have the meanings ascribed to them herein and all terms defined in this Agreement will have such defined meanings

when used in any certificate or other document made or delivered pursuant hereto unless otherwise defined therein. The definitions contained in this Agreement are applicable to the singular as well as the plural forms of such terms and to the masculine as well as to the feminine and neuter genders of such term. Any agreement, instrument or statute defined or referred to herein, or in any agreement or instrument that is referred to herein, means such agreement, instrument or statute as from time to time amended, modified or supplemented, including (in the case of agreements or instruments) by waiver or consent and (in the case of statutes) by succession of comparable successor statutes and references to all attachments thereto and instruments incorporated therein. References to a Person are also to its permitted successors and assigns. The word “extent” in the phrase “to the extent” means the degree to which a subject or thing extends, and such phrase shall not simply mean “if.” Whenever a party hereto is allowed or required to provide a consent, approval or waiver or to take any discretionary action or make any discretionary determination with respect to any matter, unless the applicable provision explicitly states to the contrary, such consent, approval, waiver action or determination may be given, taken, made or withheld in such party’s sole, complete and absolute discretion.

Section 10.8. Fees and Expenses. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, whether or not the Transaction is consummated, each of Parent (on behalf of Parent and Buyer), on the one hand, and the Shareholder (on behalf of the Shareholder and the Company), on the other hand, shall bear its own expenses in connection with the negotiation and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 10.9. Choice of Law/Consent to Jurisdiction. All disputes, claims or controversies arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or the negotiation, validity or performance of this Agreement, or the transactions contemplated hereby shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware. Each of the parties hereby consents to personal jurisdiction, service of process and venue in the federal or state courts of the State of Delaware for any claim, suit or proceeding arising under this Agreement, or in the case of a Third Party Claim subject to indemnification hereunder, in the court where such claim is brought.

Section 10.10. Specific Performance. The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof in any court of proper jurisdiction, including without limitation the obligation to close the Transaction on the Closing Date pursuant to Section 1.2 hereof. Such remedies shall not be exclusive and shall be in addition to any other remedies that any party may have under Article VIII of this Agreement.

Section 10.11. Mutual Drafting. The parties hereto are sophisticated and have been represented by attorneys throughout the transactions contemplated hereby who have carefully negotiated the provisions hereof. As a consequence, the parties do not intend that the presumptions of laws or rules relating to the interpretation of contracts against the drafter of any particular clause should be applied to this Agreement or any agreement or instrument executed in connection herewith, and therefore waive their effects.

Section 10.12. Miscellaneous. This Agreement (a) constitutes, together with the Confidentiality Agreement, the Schedules and Exhibits attached hereto, and the documents, instruments and certificates referred to herein which form a part hereof, or which are entered into in connection herewith, the entire agreement and supersedes all of the prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof, (b) shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns and is not intended to confer upon any other person (except as set forth below) any rights or remedies hereunder and (c) may be executed in two or more counterparts which together shall constitute a single agreement.
