(c) Permitted Exceptions. With respect to each Contributed Property, the Title Commitments are listed on Schedule 3.1(c) attached to this Agreement and all of the exceptions to coverage shown thereon shall be deemed Permitted Encumbrances; provided, however, the Parties agree to use good faith efforts to cause the Title Company to remove the objections to title set forth on Schedule B attached to this Agreement. The provisions of this Section 3.1(c) shall survive any Closing.

(d) Additional Exception. With respect to each Contributed Property, except for new Leases entered into after the date hereof in accordance with the requirements of this Agreement, the Property Owner shall be expressly prohibited from further encumbering the Property from and after the date hereof in any manner that would reasonably be expected to have a Property Material Adverse Effect without the prior written consent of the LATA Parties (the “Additional Exception”), unless such Additional Exception shall be released of record prior to the applicable Closing.

3.2 Excluded Liabilities. With respect to each Contributed Entity, from and after the applicable Closing:

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 3.2, the EL Entities, jointly and severally, hereby agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the LATA Parties from and against any and all direct costs, liabilities, damages and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses but excluding consequential, punitive and indirect damages) arising out of or resulting from any liabilities (other than Disclosed Liabilities) of such Contributed Entity or any of its Subsidiaries, whether direct or indirect, known or unknown, absolute or contingent, arising prior to the applicable Closing, solely to the extent pertaining to the assets or activities, if any, of any of such Contributed Entity and its Subsidiaries, that are not directly or indirectly related to the Property or to any other Contributed Property.

(b) The EL Entities shall have no liability in respect of any amounts indemnifiable under this Section 3.2 unless and until the aggregate of all such amounts with respect to such Contributed Entity collectively exceeds $25,000, whereupon the EL Entities shall be liable for the full amount thereof including the $25,000. In no event shall the EL Entities be liable pursuant to this Section 3.2 for any amounts with respect to such Contributed Entity in excess of Three Million Dollars ($3,000,000).

(c) This Section 3.2 shall survive the applicable Closing with respect to such Contributed Entity until the expiration of the first anniversary of such Closing and, with respect to any written claim delivered to either of the EL Entities within such one year period, until final non-appealable adjudication or settlement thereof, provided litigation is, or adjudication proceedings are, instituted within six (6) months following the receipt of such written claim by either EL Entity.

(d) This Section 3.2 shall not apply to any indemnification with respect to Taxes under Article 8.

(d) Each of the EL Entities has full limited liability company power and authority to own, lease and operate the properties now owned, leased or operated by it and to carry on its business as presently conducted, and to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under this Agreement and the other Transaction Agreements to which it is or will be a party; and

The EL Entities, jointly and severally, hereby represent and warrant to LATA and LATA Holdings that the statements contained in this Article V are true and correct as of the date hereof, except as set forth herein or in the schedules delivered by the EL Entities to the LATA Parties that are attached to this Agreement.

5.1 Organization and Authorization; No Conflicts. Each Contributed Entity is an entity duly organized, validly existing and in good standing in the state of its organization and is duly qualified to do business as a foreign entity in each jurisdiction where the failure to so qualify would materially adversely affect the Contributed Entity’s ability to conduct business in the Ordinary Course. Each Contributed Entity has all requisite power and authority to own, lease

and operate the Properties now owned, leased or operated by it and to carry on its business as presently conducted. Each Contributed Entity, to the extent applicable, has taken all necessary action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Agreements and any other agreement, certificate, instrument or writing delivered in connection herewith or therewith or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (collectively, the “Transaction Documents”), and upon the execution and delivery of any Transaction Document to be delivered by any Contributed Entity, to the extent applicable, such Transaction Document shall constitute the valid and binding obligation and agreement of such Contributed Entity, enforceable against such Contributed Entity in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws of general application affecting the rights and remedies of creditors and general principles of equity. The EL Entities have made available to the LATA Parties true and complete copies of the Organizational Documents of each Contributed Entity, as amended and as in effect on the date of this Agreement. No Contributed Entity is in default under or in violation of any provision of its Organizational Documents.

5.2 Capitalization; Title to Contributed Entities. Schedule 5.2 sets forth the authorized ownership interests of each Contributed Entity and indicates the ownership of all of the issued and outstanding ownership interests of the Contributed Entity. Except for the Transaction Agreements, the Transactions and the LP Purchase Agreements, there are no agreements, arrangements, options, warrants, calls, rights (including preemptive rights) or commitments of any character to which any Contributed Entity or any EL Affiliate is a party (or, to the EL Entities’ knowledge, to which any other holder of any ownership interest in any Contributed Entity is a party) relating to the issuance, sale, purchase or redemption of any ownership interests of any Contributed Entity. All of the outstanding ownership interests of each Contributed Entity are validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. All of the issued and outstanding ownership interests of each Contributed Entity held by any EL Affiliate (or, to the EL Entities’ knowledge, by any other Person) are owned free from all Liens. With respect to each Contributed Entity, upon delivery to LATA Holdings on the applicable Closing Date of the Contributed Interests contemplated by this Agreement and the applicable Contribution Agreements, the Contributors that are EL Affiliates (and, to the EL Entities’ knowledge, the other Contributors) will thereby transfer to LATA Holdings good and marketable title to such Contributed Interests, free and clear of all Liens.

6.1 SEC Reports; Financial Statements.

(a) LATA has filed with or furnished to the SEC all reports, schedules, forms, statements and other documents required by the 1933 Act or the 1934 Act or the rules or regulations promulgated thereunder to be filed or furnished by LATA, including, without limitation, proxy information and solicitation materials, in each case, in the form and with the substance prescribed by either such Act or such rules or regulations (collectively, the “SEC Reports”). LATA has delivered or made available to the EL Entities all SEC Reports to the extent the same are not publicly available through the SEC’s EDGAR website. As of their

respective filing dates, the SEC Reports complied in all material respects with the requirements of the 1933 Act or 1934 Act, as the case may be, and the rules and regulations of the SEC promulgated thereunder and other federal, state and local laws, rules and regulations applicable to the SEC Reports, and none of the SEC Reports (including any and all financial statements included therein) as of such dates contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they are made, not misleading.

(b) The financial statements included in the SEC Reports, together with the related schedules and notes, including without limitation the audited financial statements included in LATA’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 (the “Annual Report”), and the unaudited interim financial statements included in LATA’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three month period ended March 31, 2013 (the “Quarterly Report”), are accurate in all material respects and present fairly the financial position of LATA and its consolidated Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, at the dates indicated; said financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) applied on a consistent basis throughout the periods involved. The supporting schedules, if any, present fairly in accordance with GAAP the information required to be stated therein.

6.2 No Material Adverse Change in Business. Since December 31, 2012, (a) there has been no material adverse change in the condition, financial or otherwise, or in the earnings, business affairs, business prospects, management, assets or properties of LATA and or its Subsidiaries considered as one enterprise, whether or not arising in the Ordinary Course (an “LATA Material Adverse Effect”), (b) there have been no transactions entered into by LATA or any Subsidiary thereof, other than those in the Ordinary Course, which are material with respect to LATA and each Subsidiary taken as a whole, and (c) there has been no dividend or distribution of any kind declared, paid or made by LATA on any class of its shares of capital stock, other than in the Ordinary Course.

6.3 Good Standing of LATA and LATA Holdings.

(a) LATA has been duly organized and is validly existing as a corporation in good standing with the SDAT and has the corporate power and authority to own, lease and operate its properties and to conduct its business as described in the Specified SEC Reports and to enter into and perform its obligations under this Agreement and the other Transaction Agreements to which it is a party; and LATA is duly qualified as a foreign corporation to transact business and is in good standing in each other jurisdiction in which such qualification is required, whether by reason of the ownership or leasing of property or the conduct of business, except where the failure so to qualify or to be in good standing would not result in an LATA Material Adverse Effect. Complete and correct copies of the Organizational Documents of LATA and all amendments thereto have been made available to the EL Entities and no changes thereto will be made other than as contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Agreements.

(b) LATA Holdings has been duly organized and is validly existing as a limited partnership in good standing under the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia and has the limited partnership power and authority to own, lease and operate its properties and to conduct its business as described in the Specified SEC Reports and to enter into and perform its obligations under this Agreement and the other Transaction Agreements to which it is a party; and LATA Holdings is duly qualified as a foreign limited partnership to transact business and is in good standing in each other jurisdiction in which such qualification is required, whether by reason of the ownership or leasing of property or the conduct of business, except where the failure so to qualify or to be in good standing would not result in an LATA Material Adverse Effect. Complete and correct copies of the Organizational Documents of LATA Holdings and all amendments thereto have been made available to the EL Entities and no changes thereto will be other than as contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Agreements.

6.4 Good Standing of Subsidiaries. The only Subsidiaries of LATA are the entities listed in Exhibit 21.1 to the Annual Report and those owning properties acquired since the Annual Report. Each Subsidiary of LATA (other than LATA Holdings, which is addressed in Section 6.3(b)) (a) has been duly organized and is validly existing as a partnership or a limited liability company in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization, (b) has partnership or limited liability company power and authority, as applicable, to own, lease and operate its properties and to conduct its business as described in the Specified SEC Reports and (c) is duly qualified as a foreign partnership or limited liability company, as the case may be, to transact business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is required, whether by reason of the ownership or leasing of property or the conduct of business, except in the case of this clause (c) where the failure so to qualify or to be in good standing would not result in an LATA Material Adverse Effect; all of the issued and outstanding equity interests or capital stock, respectively, of each such Subsidiary has been duly authorized and validly issued, is fully paid and non-assessable and is owned by LATA, directly or through a Subsidiary, free and clear of any security interest, mortgage, pledge, lien, encumbrance, claim or equity; none of the outstanding equity interests or shares of capital stock, respectively, of any Subsidiary was issued in violation of the preemptive or similar rights of any securityholder of such Subsidiary. Except for the equity interests and shares of capital stock, respectively, in its Subsidiaries, LATA does not own, directly or indirectly, any shares of stock or any other equity or long term debt securities of any corporation or have any equity interest in any firm, partnership, joint venture, association or other entity.

6.5 Capitalization.

(a) The authorized, issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of LATA are as set forth in the Annual Report (except for subsequent issuances or redemptions pursuant to transactions involving or known by the EL Entities, this Agreement and the other Transaction Agreements or pursuant to reservations, agreements or benefit plans referred to in the Specified SEC Reports). The issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of LATA have been duly authorized and validly issued and are fully paid and non-assessable; none of the outstanding shares of capital stock of LATA was issued in violation of any preemptive or other similar rights of any security holder of LATA or any other Person. The issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of LATA have been offered, issued and sold in compliance with all applicable federal, state and foreign securities laws.

(b) Schedule 6.5 sets forth the authorized partnership interests of LATA Holdings and indicates the ownership of all of the issued and outstanding partnership interests of LATA Holdings as of the date of this Agreement. Except for the Transaction Agreements, the Transactions, and other transactions involving or known by the EL Entities, there are no agreements, arrangements, options, warrants, calls, rights (including preemptive rights) or commitments of any character to which any of LATA, LATA Holdings and their respective Affiliates is a party (or, to LATA’s knowledge, to which any other holder of any partnership interest in LATA Holdings is a party) relating to the issuance, sale, purchase or redemption of any partnership interests of LATA Holdings. All of the outstanding partnership interests of LATA Holdings are validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. All of the issued and outstanding partnership interests of LATA Holdings held by any of LATA, LATA Holdings and their respective Affiliates (or, to LATA’s knowledge, by any other Person) are owned free from all Liens. None of the issued and outstanding partnership interests of LATA Holdings was issued in violation of any preemptive or other similar rights of any securityholder of LATA Holdings or any other Person. The issued and outstanding partnership interests of LATA Holdings have been offered, issued and sold in compliance with all applicable federal, state and foreign securities laws.

6.6 Authorization of Agreement; Enforceability. Each of the LATA Parties and their Affiliates has duly authorized the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Transaction Agreements to which it is or will be a party, the performance of its obligations under this Agreement and the other Transaction Agreements to which it is or will be a party, and the consummation of the Transactions in accordance with all requirements of the Transaction Agreements and applicable to it under its Organizational Documents and applicable Laws. Assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery of this Agreement by the EL Entities, this Agreement is the valid and binding obligation of each of the LATA Parties, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability might be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and similar Laws affecting creditors’ rights generally, or limitations on the availability of equitable remedies. Assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery of the other Transaction Agreements by the parties thereto other than the LATA Parties and their Affiliates, each of the other Transaction Agreements to which the LATA Parties or any their Affiliates will be a party, will be the valid and binding obligation of the LATA Parties and their Affiliates, as applicable, enforceable against each of them in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability might be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and similar Laws affecting creditors’ rights generally, or limitations on the availability of equitable remedies.

6.7 Absence of Defaults and Conflicts. Neither LATA nor any Subsidiary thereof is in violation of its Organizational Documents, or in default in the performance or observance of any obligation, agreement, covenant or condition contained in any contract, indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan or credit agreement, note, lease or other agreement or instrument to which LATA or any Subsidiary thereof is a party or by which it or any of them may be bound, or to which any of the property or assets of LATA or any Subsidiary thereof is subject (collectively, “Agreements and Instruments”) except for such defaults that would not result in an LATA Material Adverse Effect; and the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other the Transaction Agreements to which LATA or LATA Holdings is or will be a party and the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein and therein and compliance by LATA

and LATA Holdings with their respective obligations hereunder and thereunder have been duly authorized by all necessary action and do not and will not, whether with or without the giving of notice or passage of time or both, conflict with or constitute a breach of, or default under, or result in the creation or imposition of any Lien upon any property or assets of LATA or any Subsidiary thereof pursuant to, the Agreements and Instruments (except for such conflicts, breaches or defaults or Liens that would not result in an LATA Material Adverse Effect), nor will such action result in any violation of the provisions of the Organizational Documents of LATA or any Subsidiary thereof or any applicable Law, or Order of any Government Authority having jurisdiction over LATA or any Subsidiary thereof or any of their assets, properties or operations.

6.8 Absence of Proceedings. There is no Proceeding now pending, or, to the knowledge of LATA or LATA Holdings, threatened, against or affecting LATA or any Subsidiary thereof, which is required to be disclosed in the SEC Reports which has not been so disclosed, or which reasonably would be expected to result in a LATA Material Adverse Effect, or which reasonably would be expected to materially and adversely affect the ability of the LATA Parties to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other the Transaction Agreements or the performance by LATA or LATA Holdings of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder.

6.9 Accuracy of Descriptions. The descriptions in the SEC Reports of affiliate transactions, contracts required to be described therein and other legal documents are true and correct in all material respects, and there are no affiliate transactions, contracts or other documents of a character required to be described in the SEC Reports or to be filed as exhibits to the SEC Reports which are not described or filed as required. All agreements between LATA or any Subsidiary thereof, on the one hand, and any other party expressly referenced in the SEC Reports are legal, valid and binding obligations of LATA or one or more of its Subsidiaries, enforceable against LATA or its Subsidiaries in accordance with their respective terms, except to the extent that enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and by general equitable principles.

6.10 Possession of Intellectual Property. LATA and each Subsidiary thereof owns or possesses, or can acquire on reasonable terms, adequate patents, patent rights, licenses, inventions, copyrights, know-how (including trade secrets and other unpatented and/or unpatentable proprietary or confidential information, systems or procedures), trademarks, service marks, trade names or other intellectual property (collectively, “Intellectual Property”) necessary to conduct its business as described in the Specified SEC Reports, and neither LATA nor any of its Subsidiaries has received any written notice, nor, to LATA’s knowledge, is there any threatened claim of any infringement of or conflict with asserted rights of others with respect to any Intellectual Property or of any facts or circumstances which reasonably would be expected to render any Intellectual Property invalid or inadequate to protect the interest of LATA or any of its Subsidiaries therein, and which infringement or conflict (if the subject of any unfavorable decision, ruling or finding) or invalidity or inadequacy, singly or in the aggregate, reasonably would be expected to result in an LATA Material Adverse Effect.

6.11 Absence of Further Requirements. No filing with, or authorization, approval, consent, license, order, registration, qualification or decree of, any court or Governmental Authority is necessary or required for the performance by LATA or LATA Holdings of their respective obligations under this Agreement and other Transaction Agreements to which LATA or LATA Holdings is or will be a party, or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Agreements, except such as have been already obtained or as may be required under Regulation D under the 1933 Act or state securities laws.

6.12 Possession of Licenses and Permits. LATA and its Subsidiaries possess such permits, licenses, approvals, consents and other authorizations issued by the appropriate Governmental Authorities necessary to conduct their business as described in the Specified SEC Reports (collectively, “Governmental Licenses”), except where the failure so to possess would not, singly or in the aggregate, result in an LATA Material Adverse Effect; LATA and its Subsidiaries are in compliance with the terms and conditions of all such Governmental Licenses, except where the failure so to comply would not, singly or in the aggregate, result in an LATA Material Adverse Effect; all of the Governmental Licenses are valid and in full force and effect, except where the invalidity of such Governmental Licenses or the failure of such Governmental Licenses to be in full force and effect would not, singly or in the aggregate, result in an LATA Material Adverse Effect; and neither LATA nor any of its Subsidiaries has received any notice of proceedings relating to the revocation or modification of any such Governmental Licenses which, singly or in the aggregate, if the subject of an unfavorable decision, ruling or finding, would result in an LATA Material Adverse Effect.

6.13 Accounting Controls and Disclosure Controls. LATA and each of its Subsidiaries maintains a system of internal accounting controls sufficient to provide reasonable assurances that (a) transactions are executed in accordance with management’s general or specific authorization; (b) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP and to maintain accountability for assets; (c) access to assets is permitted only in accordance with management’s general or specific authorization; and (d) the recorded accountability for assets is compared with the existing assets at reasonable intervals and appropriate action is taken with respect to any differences. Since the date of LATA’s formation, there has been (i) no material weakness in LATA’s internal control over financial reporting (whether or not remediated) and (ii) no change in LATA’s internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or would reasonably be likely to materially affect, LATA’s internal control over financial reporting. LATA and each of its Subsidiaries maintain disclosure controls and procedures that, in all material respects, are effective to perform the functions for which they were established and are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by LATA in the reports that it files or submits under the 1934 Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and is accumulated and communicated to LATA’s management, including its principal executive officer or officers and principal financial officer or officers, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure.

6.14 Tax Returns and Payment of Taxes. All United States federal income Tax Returns of LATA and its Subsidiaries required by Law to be filed have been filed and all Taxes shown by such returns or otherwise assessed, which are due and payable, have been paid, except assessments against which appeals have been or will be promptly taken in good faith and as to

which adequate reserves have been provided and will be maintained. LATA and its Subsidiaries have filed all other material Tax Returns that are required to have been filed by them pursuant to applicable foreign, state, local or other Law and has paid all Taxes due pursuant to such returns or pursuant to any assessment (including all real estate Taxes) received by LATA and its Subsidiaries, except for such Taxes, if any, as are being contested in good faith and as to which adequate reserves have been provided and will be maintained and except for Taxes the nonpayment of which would not result in an LATA Material Adverse Effect. All such returns are true, correct and complete in all material respects. The charges, accruals and reserves on the books of LATA in respect of any income and Tax liability for any years not finally determined are adequate to meet any assessments or re-assessments for additional income Tax for any years not finally determined. LATA has not engaged in any transaction that could affect its income Tax liability for any taxable year not closed by the statute of limitations which is a “reportable transaction” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation section 1.6011-4(b) (irrespective of the effective date).

6.15 Insurance. LATA and its Subsidiaries carry or are entitled to the benefits of insurance, with financially sound and reputable insurers, in such amounts and covering such risks as is generally maintained by companies of established repute engaged in the same or similar business, and all such insurance is in full force and effect. To LATA’s knowledge, neither it nor any of its Subsidiaries will be unable (a) to renew its existing insurance coverage as and when such policies expire or (b) to obtain comparable coverage from similar institutions as may be necessary or appropriate to conduct its business as now conducted and at a cost that would not result in an LATA Material Adverse Effect. Neither LATA nor any Subsidiary thereof has been denied any insurance coverage which it has sought or for which it has applied.

6.16 REIT Qualification. Commencing with LATA’s taxable year ending December 31, 2006, LATA has been organized and has operated, and upon consummation of the Transactions will continue to be organized and operated, in a manner so as to qualify as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Code. The proposed method of operation of LATA as described in the Specified SEC Reports will enable LATA to continue to meet the requirements for qualification and taxation as a REIT under the Code for its taxable years ending December 31, 2012 and subsequent taxable years.

6.17 ERISA. The assets of LATA do not constitute, and as of any Closing will not constitute, “plan assets” under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended.

6.18 Absence of Labor Dispute. (a) No labor dispute with the employees of LATA, LATA Holdings or any Subsidiary thereof exists or, to the knowledge of LATA, is imminent, and (b) LATA is not aware of any existing or imminent labor disturbance by the employees of any of its, LATA Holdings’ or any of their Subsidiaries’ principal suppliers, manufacturers, customers or contractors, which, in the case of (a) or (b), would result in an LATA Material Adverse Effect.

6.19 Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. Neither LATA nor, to the knowledge of LATA, any director, officer, agent, employee, Affiliate or other Person acting on behalf of LATA or any of its Subsidiaries has taken any action, directly or indirectly, that would result in a violation by any of such Persons of the FCPA, including, without limitation, making use of the mails or any means or instrumentality of interstate commerce corruptly in furtherance of an offer, payment, promise to pay or authorization of the payment of any money, or other property, gift, promise to give, or authorization of the giving of anything of value to any “foreign official” (as such term is defined in the FCPA) or any foreign political party or official thereof or any candidate for foreign political office, in contravention of the FCPA, and LATA and, to the knowledge of LATA, its Affiliates have conducted their businesses in compliance with the FCPA and have instituted and maintain policies and procedures designed to ensure, and which are reasonably expected to continue to ensure, continued compliance therewith.

6.20 Money Laundering Laws. The operations of LATA and its Subsidiaries are and have been conducted at all times in compliance, in all material respects, with applicable financial recordkeeping and reporting requirements of the Money Laundering Laws, and no action, suit or Proceeding by or before any Governmental Authority involving LATA or any of its Subsidiaries with respect to the Money Laundering Laws is pending or, to the knowledge of LATA, threatened.

6.21 OFAC. Neither LATA nor, to the knowledge of LATA, any trustee, officer, agent, employee, Affiliate or person acting on behalf of LATA or any of its Subsidiaries is currently subject to any U.S. sanctions administered by OFAC; and LATA will not directly or indirectly knowingly use the proceeds of the offering, or lend, contribute or otherwise make available such proceeds to any Subsidiary, joint venture partner or other Person, for the purpose of financing the activities of any Person currently subject to any U.S. sanctions administered by OFAC.

6.22 Partnership Agreement. The Partnership Agreement has been duly and validly authorized, executed and delivered by LATA, acting on its own behalf and in its capacity as sole general partner of LATA Holdings, and is and at each Closing will be a valid and binding agreement of each of LATA and LATA Holdings, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except to the extent that enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and by general equitable principles.

6.23 Brokerage Commissions and Finder’s Fees. None of LATA, LATA Holdings and their Affiliates has incurred, and will not incur, any liability for any brokerage fee or commission, finder’s fee, advisory fee or other similar payments in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Transaction Agreements, except for the fees which may be payable to any advisors engaged by a special committee of LATA’s Board of Directors to advise such special committee regarding the Transactions (if any, the “LATA Advisory Fees”).

6.24 No Consents. Except as set forth on Schedule 6.24, neither the execution and delivery of any Transaction Document by any of the LATA Parties, to the extent applicable, nor the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated thereby, nor compliance with or fulfillment of the terms, conditions and provisions thereof will require the approval, consent,

authorization or act of, or the making by any LATA Party of any declaration, filing or registration with, any Person, including, without limitation any lender under any loan or financing or any Governmental Authority relating to or affecting any Property of any LATA Party. To LATA’s knowledge, Schedule 6.24 contains a list of all material consents and approvals required to be obtained in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Parties shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to satisfy conditions so as to cause the Final Closing to occur no later than the Final Closing Outside Date.

(b) Consents – Generally. The Parties shall use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to promptly make all filings, provide all notices, and obtain all consents, waivers, approvals, authorizations and permits that are required or reasonably appropriate to be made or obtained by such Party, and shall cooperate in all reasonable respects with the other Parties in that regard, in connection with the preparation and entry into of the Transaction Agreements and the consummation of the Transactions, including, without limitation, (i) the consents and approvals listed on Schedule 4.4 hereto, (ii) those to be made with, provided to or obtained from any Governmental Authority with respect to the Transactions and (iii) those required under each of the other Transaction Agreements.

The “Lender Approval” shall be deemed to include, if and to the extent applicable (A) the satisfactory completion by the Lender of all diligence investigations, inspections and tests, and (B) the full negotiation and final approval for signature of the Lender Approval Documents by LATA Holdings, the borrower and, if applicable, the guarantor under the Loan Documents, the Lender and any other Persons required by the Lender to be a party to the Lender Approval Documents.

TAX MATTERS

8.1 Tax Matters. The EL Entities, jointly and severally, shall pay and indemnify, without duplication, the Contributed Entity and each of their respective Subsidiaries and the LATA Parties for the following Taxes (and all related Adverse Consequences, including all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in defending an audit or other claim relating to such Taxes, but excluding any Transfer Taxes):

(a) all such Taxes resulting from a breach of a representation or warranty contained in Section 5.6 or a breach of any provision of this Section 8.1;

(b) with respect to such Taxes attributable to any Pre-Closing Tax Period: (i) all Taxes of each Contributed Entity and each of their respective Subsidiaries; (ii) all such Taxes of any other Person that each Contributed Entity or any of their respective Subsidiaries is liable for as a result of transferee liability, successor liability, or a contractual obligation, in each case, that is attributable to, or arose as a result of actions or breaches, incurred in such Pre-Closing Tax Period; and (iii) all Taxes resulting from each Contributed Entity or any of its Subsidiaries being a member of, or leaving, during a Pre-Closing Tax Period, an affiliated group of corporations that files a consolidated, combined or unitary Tax Return (or any similar group) for federal, state, local or foreign Tax purposes; and

(c) with respect to such Taxes attributable to any Straddle Period: (i) the Taxes of each Contributed Entity and each of its Subsidiaries attributable to the portion of such Straddle Period that ends on the applicable Closing Date, as determined under Section 8.2; (ii) the Taxes of any other Person that the Contributed Entity on any of its Subsidiaries is liable for as a result of transferee liability, successor liability, or a contractual obligation, in each case, that is attributable to, or arose as a result of actions or breaches, incurred on or before the Closing

Date, as determined under Section 8.2; and (iii) all Taxes resulting from each Contributed Entity or any of its Subsidiaries being a member of, or leaving, during a Straddle Period, an affiliated group of corporations that files a consolidated, combined or unitary Tax Return for federal, state, local or foreign Tax purposes.

8.2 Allocation of Taxes. For purposes of determining the amount of Taxes that relate to Pre-Closing Tax Periods and Straddle Periods for purposes of any obligation to indemnify for Taxes under Section 8.1, the parties agree to use the following conventions:

(a) Taxes in the form of interest, penalties, additions to tax or other additional amounts that are actually incurred, accrued, assessed or similarly charged on or after the applicable Closing Date but that relate to Taxes that accrued on or before the applicable Closing Date shall be treated as occurring prior to such Closing Date;

(b) Except for Transfer Taxes and any other Taxes for which the LATA Parties are responsible hereunder and for real estate taxes (apportioned pursuant to Section 2.2), for all Taxes that are payable with respect to any Straddle Period, the portion of such Tax that is attributable to the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the applicable Closing Date shall be allocated between the portion of the period ending on such Closing Date and the portion of the period beginning after such Closing Date using the following conventions:

(i) in the case of such Taxes resulting from, or imposed on, net or gross income, Taxes resulting from, or imposed on, any sale, receipt, use, transfer or assignments of property or other asset, or Taxes resulting from, or imposed on, any payment or accrual of any amounts (including, without limitation, dividends, interest, or wages), the amount allocated to the portion of the period ending on the Closing Date shall be the amount of Tax that would be payable for such portion of the Straddle Period if such Person filed a separate Tax Return with respect to such Taxes or Taxes solely for the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date using a “closing of the books” methodology for allocating items of such Tax Return; and

(ii) in the case of all other such Taxes, the amount allocated to the portion of the period ending on the Closing Date shall equal to the amount of Taxes for the entire Straddle Period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of calendar days in the portion of the period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of calendar days in the entire Straddle Period.

For purposes of clause (i), any item determined on an annual or periodic basis (including amortization and depreciation deductions and the effects of graduated rates) shall be allocated to the portion of the Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date based on the relative number of days in such portion of the Straddle Period as compared to the number of days in the entire Straddle Period.

8.3 Cooperation. Each of the Parties shall provide the LATA Parties and the Contributed Entities and their respective Subsidiaries with any assistance as may reasonably be requested in connection with the preparation of any Tax Return or any audit or other Proceeding by any Governmental Authority relating to liabilities for Taxes. Such assistance shall, upon

reasonable written notice, include making employees available on a mutually convenient basis during normal business hours to provide additional information or explanation of material provided hereunder and shall include providing copies of relevant Tax Returns and supporting material.

Without limiting the terms hereof, the EL Entities shall pay to applicable taxing authority the amount of Taxes for which it responsible as provided in Sections 8.1 and 8.2 hereof. LATA’s obligations under this Section 8.2(b) shall only apply with respect to any taxable period in which LATA owns 100% of the ownership interests of the applicable Contributed Entity.

8.5 Claims; Tax Proceedings. If any Governmental Authority issues to the Contributed Entity or any of its Subsidiaries a written notice of its intent to conduct an audit or other Proceeding with respect to Taxes, a written notice of deficiency, a written notice of an assessment, a written notice of a proposed adjustment, a written assertion of claim for the payment that relates to Taxes or Tax Returns of the Contributed Entity or any of its Subsidiaries for a Pre-Closing Tax Period or for a Straddle Period and for which the EL Entities are obligated to pay or indemnify the LATA Parties (collectively, a “Tax Claim”), the LATA Parties shall notify the EL Entities within ten (10) Business Days.

8.7 Other Treatment.

(a) The Parties agree for all relevant Tax purposes to treat all indemnification payments to the LATA Parties pursuant to this Agreement as adjustments to the consideration hereunder.

The obligations of the EL Entities to pay or indemnify for a Tax under this Article 8 shall expire upon sixty (60) days after the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations (after taking into account any waiver, extension, tolling, or mitigation thereof) of the underlying Tax; provided, however, to the extent that the EL Entities’ obligation to pay a Tax arises under a contract or other agreement or arrangement, the EL Entities’ obligations under this Section 8 shall not expire until sixty (60) after the expiration of such Contributed Entity’s obligation to pay such Tax under the contract or other agreement or arrangement. All other obligations of the EL Entities under this Article 8 shall survive until fully performed.
