At least two (2) Business Days prior to Closing, Seller and the Company together shall, in good faith and in accordance with the terms of this Section 2(e), prepare and deliver to Buyer (i) an estimated consolidated income statement of the Company and its Subsidiaries for the Operating Period (the “Estimated Closing Income Statement”), which Estimated Closing Income Statement shall include a reasonably detailed estimation of Adjusted Net Income for the Operating Period (“Estimated Adjusted Net Income”) and (ii) a statement (the “Estimated Cash Statement”) setting forth an estimate of the amount of the Cash Distribution (the “Estimated Cash Distribution”).

ix




Net Income during the Operating Period (the “Final Closing Statement”), (ii) a consolidated income statement of the Company and its Subsidiaries for the Operating Period (the “Final Closing Income Statement”) and (iii) a statement of the amount of the Cash Distribution (the “Final Cash Statement”). Calculation of the Final Closing Statement, Final Closing Income Statement and Final Cash Statement shall be in a manner consistent with the accounting methods, policies, practices, classifications, and estimation methodologies used to calculate the Estimated Closing Income Statement, the Estimated Adjusted Net Income, the Estimated Cash Statement and the Estimated Cash Distribution, including the Adjustment Policies.
(2)    Review of Initial Income Statement; Objection. Seller shall have 30 days from the date of receipt of the Final Closing Income Statement, Final Closing Statement and the Final Cash Statement to review the computations of (x) Adjusted Net Income reflected on the Final Closing Income Statement and the Final Closing Statement and (y) the amount of the Cash Distribution reflected on the Final Cash Statement. In connection with such review, Buyer will make available to Seller and its representatives all records and work papers relating to the Company and its Subsidiaries and the calculation of Adjusted Net Income and the Cash Distribution that Seller and its representatives reasonably request in reviewing the Final Closing Income Statement and Final Cash Statement. If Seller disagrees with Buyer’s calculation of the Adjusted Net Income and/or the Cash Distribution, Seller shall deliver written notice of such disagreement to Buyer, which notice shall include Seller’s explanation of the basis of the disagreement and a calculation of Adjusted Net Income of the Company and its Subsidiaries and/or the Cash Distribution (an “Objection Notice”). If Seller delivers an Objection Notice to Buyer, Buyer and Seller will endeavor to resolve any disagreements noted in the Objection Notice in good faith as soon as practicable after the delivery of such notice, but if they do not obtain a final resolution within 30 days after Buyer has received the Objection Notice, Seller or Buyer may submit the matter for resolution to an independent accounting firm as mutually agreed upon by Buyer and the Seller (the “Firm”) to act as an expert and not an arbitrator, solely in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, to resolve any remaining disagreements. Buyer on the one hand and Seller on the other hand will direct the Firm to render a determination within 30 days after submitting the matters to it for resolution and Seller and Buyer and their respective agents will cooperate with the Firm during its resolution of any disagreements included in the Objection Notice. The Firm will consider only those items and amounts set forth in the Objection Notice that Buyer on the one hand and Seller on the other hand are unable to resolve. In resolving any disputed item, the Firm may not assign a value to any item greater than the greatest value for such item claimed by any party or less than the smallest value for such item claimed by any party. The scope of the disputes to be arbitrated by the Firm is limited to whether the preparation of the Final Closing Income Statement and the Final Cash Statement and the calculation of Adjusted Net Income and the Cash Distribution were done in a manner consistent with the same accounting methods, policies, practices, classifications, and estimation methodologies as were used to prepare the Estimated Closing Income Statement and the Estimated Cash Statement and whether there were mathematical errors in the preparation of the Final Closing Income Statement or the Final Cash Statement or the calculation of Adjusted Net Income or the Cash Distribution, and the Firm is not to make any other determination unless requested in writing by Seller and Buyer. The fees and disbursements of the Firm (and the reasonable attorney fees and expenses of the parties) shall be borne (i) by Buyer in the proportion that the aggregate dollar amount of the disputed items that are successfully disputed by Seller (as finally determined by the Firm) bears to the aggregate dollar amount of all disputed items and (ii) by Seller in the proportion that the aggregate dollar amount of the disputed items that are unsuccessfully disputed by Seller (as finally determined by the Firm) bears to the aggregate dollar amount of all disputed items. For example, if the parties dispute $1,000,000 of a proposed adjustment to be paid by Buyer, the Firm determines that such adjustment should be $400,000 and the Firm’s fees are $100,000, then (i) Buyer shall pay $40,000 (40%) of such fees and (ii) Seller shall pay $60,000 (60%) of such fees. The determination of the Firm as to any disputed matters shall be set forth in a written statement delivered to Buyer and Seller and shall be final, conclusive and binding on the parties. The parties agree that judgment may be entered upon the award of the Firm in any court having jurisdiction pursuant to Section 9(k).

(3)    Final and Binding Determination.
(i)    The Final Closing Income Statement and Adjusted Net Income, in each case of the Company and its Subsidiaries during the Operating Period as agreed to by Buyer and Seller or as determined by the Firm, as applicable, shall be conclusive and binding on all of the parties hereto and shall be deemed the “Actual Closing Income Statement” and “Final Adjusted Net Income,” respectively, for all purposes herein. The Final Cash Statement and the amount of the Cash Distribution as agreed to by Buyer and Seller or as determined by the Firm, as applicable, shall be conclusive and binding on all of the parties hereto and shall be deemed the “Actual Cash Statement” and “Final Cash Distribution,” respectively, for all purposes herein.

x




(ii)    Upon completion of the calculation of the Actual Closing Income Statement, Final Adjusted Net Income, Actual Cash Statement and Final Cash Distribution in accordance with this Section 2(e), the Purchase Price and the amount of the Cash Distribution shall be recalculated and the following adjustments made:
(A)
If the aggregate amount of (x) the Purchase Price calculated using the Final Adjusted Net Income shown on the Actual Closing Income Statement and (y) the Cash Distribution calculated using the Final Cash Distribution amount shown on the Actual Cash Statement, is greater than the aggregate amount of (A) the Closing Date Purchase Price and (B) the Cash Distribution made on the Closing Date, Buyer shall pay such difference to Seller by wire transfer in immediately available funds to one or more accounts designated by Seller.
(B)
If the aggregate amount of (x) the Purchase Price calculated using the Final Adjusted Net Income shown on the Actual Closing Income Statement and (y) the Cash Distribution calculated using the Final Cash Distribution amount shown on the Actual Cash Statement, is less than the aggregate amount of (A) the Closing Date Purchase Price and (B) the Cash Distribution made on the Closing Date, the amount of such difference will be paid to Buyer by Seller by wire transfer in immediately available funds to one or more accounts designated by Buyer.
(f)    The Closing. On the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, the purchase and sale of the Purchased Units provided for in this Agreement, and consummation of the other transactions contemplated herein (the “Closing”), shall take place at (i) 10:00 a.m. (Eastern Time) on the first Business Day following the satisfaction or waiver of all of the conditions to the obligations of the parties set forth in Section 6 as provided therein (excluding conditions that, by their terms, cannot be satisfied until Closing, but Closing shall be subject to the satisfaction or, if permissible, waiver of those conditions); provided, however, that if such Business Day would be after the 15th day of a calendar month, the Closing shall take place on the last day of such calendar month (or if such day is not a Business Day, the Business Day immediately following the last day of such calendar month) or (ii) a time and on a date mutually agreed upon in writing by the parties hereto, subject, in each case, to the satisfaction or waiver of all of the conditions to the obligations of the parties set forth in Section 6 as provided therein (excluding conditions that, by their terms, cannot be satisfied until Closing, but Closing shall be subject to the satisfaction or, if permissible, waiver of those conditions) (the date on which Closing occurs, the “Closing Date”). The Closing shall be effective as of 11:59 p.m. (Eastern Time) on the Closing Date and shall take place at the offices of Greenberg Traurig, located at 333 Southeast Second Avenue, Miami, Florida 33131. By agreement of the parties the Closing may take place by delivery of the documents to be delivered at Closing by facsimile or other electronic transmission. All deliveries by one party to any other party at Closing shall be deemed to have occurred simultaneously and none shall be effective until and unless all have occurred. Subject to the provisions of Section 8, failure to consummate the purchase and sale of the Purchased Units and the other transactions contemplated hereby on the date and time and at the place determined pursuant to this Section 2(f) will not result in the termination of this Agreement and will not relieve any party of any obligation under this Agreement.
(g)    Other Closing Deliverables. At the Closing: (i) Seller and its Affiliates shall execute and deliver a bill of sale in the form of Exhibit B hereto pursuant to which they shall transfer and convey to the Company for no additional consideration the fixed assets set forth in the bill of sale, free and clear of all Encumbrances, (iii) Seller and its applicable Affiliates and the Company shall execute and deliver an Intellectual Property Assignment in the form of Exhibit C hereto (the “Form IP Assignment”) pursuant to which Seller and its applicable Affiliates shall transfer and convey to the Company for no additional consideration their rights, title and interests, if any, to the domain names set forth in the Form IP Assignment, free and clear of all Encumbrances and (iv) Seller shall deliver to Buyer certificates of good standing on behalf of the Company and its Subsidiaries for each of the jurisdictions set forth on Schedule 2(g) attached hereto.
(h)    Purchase Price Allocation. The Buyer and the Seller acknowledge that the acquisition of the Purchased Units is properly viewed for U.S. federal income Tax purposes as though the Buyer purchased all of the Company’s assets from the Seller for the Purchase Price plus the amount of any liabilities treated as assumed by the Buyer for income tax purposes. The amount of such consideration paid at Closing shall be allocated among the assets of the Company based upon the fair market values thereof in accordance with Section 1060 of the Code as set forth in the allocation schedule to be reasonably agreed to by the parties following the Closing. Within 60 days following the Closing Date, Seller will prepare and deliver to Buyer a schedule setting

xi




forth the proposed allocation of the consideration (the “Allocation Schedule”). Buyer shall have 30 days from the date of receipt of the Allocation Schedule to review it. If the Buyer notifies Seller during such 30 day period that it disagrees with the proposed Allocation Schedule, then Buyer and the Seller shall attempt to resolve their disagreement within 30 days following the Buyer’s notification of Seller of such disagreement. If Buyer and the Seller are not able to resolve their disagreement, the dispute shall be submitted to the Firm. The Firm will resolve the disagreement within 30 days after the date on which they are engaged or as soon as possible thereafter. The determination of the Firm shall be binding on the parties. The cost of the services of the Firm will be borne by the party whose calculation of the matter in disagreement differs the most from the calculation as finally determined by the Firm. If each of the party’s calculation differs equally from the calculation as finally determined by the Firm, then such cost will be borne half by the Seller and half by Buyer. Each of the Buyer and the Seller agrees (a) to act in a manner consistent with the Allocation Schedule, as finally determined in accordance with this Section 2(h), in the preparation and the filing of all Tax Returns (including IRS Form 8594), (b) not to voluntarily take any position inconsistent therewith in the course of any Tax audit or other proceeding, unless required to do so by applicable Laws (including a “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313(a)(1) of the Code (or any comparable provision of any state, local or foreign law)), and (c) to provide the other promptly with any other information reasonably required to timely complete IRS Form 8594.

xvi




operate the Business solely in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practices and in accordance with the Services Agreement, including without limitation as to all Tax matters, and (b) use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain and preserve intact the Business in all material respects.
(b)    Commercially Reasonable Efforts; Notification; Hart-Scott-Rodino Act Filings.
(7)    Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, except to the extent otherwise required by regulatory considerations and otherwise provided in this Section 5(b), each of the Company, Seller and Buyer agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and to do, or cause to be done, and to assist and cooperate with the other parties in doing, all things necessary, proper or advisable to consummate and make effective, in the most expeditious manner practicable, the purchase and sale of the Purchased Units and the other transactions contemplated hereby and to satisfy all of the conditions set forth in Section 6, including (i) preparing and filing all forms, registrations and notices required to be filed, obtaining of all necessary actions or nonactions, waivers, consents and approvals from Governmental Bodies and the making of all necessary registrations and filings (including filings with Governmental Bodies) and the taking of all reasonable steps as may be necessary to obtain an approval or waiver from, or to avoid an action or proceeding by, any Governmental Body, (ii) obtaining all necessary consents, approvals or waivers from third parties, (iii) defending any lawsuits or other Proceedings, whether judicial or administrative, challenging this Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, including seeking to have any stay or temporary restraining order entered by any court or other Legal Requirement vacated or reversed and (iv) the execution and delivery of any additional instruments necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby; provided, however, in no event shall Seller be obligated to take any action in connection with Buyer’s financing of the transactions contemplated hereby.
(8)    Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, as soon as may be reasonably practicable, Buyer, and Seller each shall file with the United States Federal Trade Commission (the “FTC”) and the Antitrust Division of the United States Department of Justice (the “DOJ”) Notification and Report Forms relating to the transactions contemplated hereby as required by the HSR Act. Subject to applicable Legal Requirements and the preservation of any applicable attorney-client privilege, Buyer, Seller, the Company and its Subsidiaries each shall promptly (i) supply the other with any information which may be required in order to effectuate such filings, (ii) supply any additional information which reasonably may be required by the FTC or the DOJ, and each will use reasonable efforts to obtain a waiver of the applicable waiting period and (iii) make any further filings pursuant thereto that may be necessary, proper or advisable in connection therewith. Buyer shall pay all filing fees and other charges for the filing under the HSR Act by all parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Party shall be required to sell or otherwise dispose of any business unit or line of business in order to obtain approval from any Governmental Authority.
(c)    Notification. Each of the parties to this Agreement shall have the right, but not the obligation, to give prompt notice to the other parties of the occurrence or non-occurrence of any event which, to its Knowledge, would likely cause any representation or warranty made by such party herein to be untrue or inaccurate or any covenant, condition or agreement contained herein not be complied with or satisfied. Any such notice by a party with respect to a matter or event shall not be deemed to cure any breach of any representation or warranty made in this Agreement as of the date hereof, for purposes of determining satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 6, the other party’s termination rights under Section 8 or following such a termination, such party’s rights to damages resulting from such breach. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the other party chooses not to exercise any termination rights available to it as a result of a breach described in the preceding sentence or Closing otherwise occurs, such party and its Affiliates shall have no liability for indemnification pursuant to Section 7 on account of a breach of a representation or warranty, to the extent that the matter or event which causes the breach was included in a supplement to the Schedules delivered on or prior to the Closing Date.



(d)    Filing of Tax Returns.
(i)    Pre-Closing Periods. For taxable periods that end on or prior to the Closing Date (“Pre-Closing Periods”), Seller shall, at the expense of Seller, prepare or cause to be prepared and file or cause to be filed all Tax Returns of the

xvii




Company and its Subsidiaries that are required by applicable law. Seller will provide Buyer with copies of any such Returns for the Buyer’s reasonable review and comment, at least 30 days (or such other time as is reasonable) prior to the due date thereof (giving effect to any extensions thereto), accompanied by a statement (the “Pre-Closing Statement”) setting forth and calculating in reasonable detail the Taxes that relate to the Pre-Closing Taxes. If the Buyer agrees with the Pre-Closing Period Returns and Pre-Closing Statement, the Seller shall pay to Buyer, not later than 5 Business Days before the due date for the payment of Taxes with respect to such Pre-Closing Period Tax Return, an amount equal to the Pre-Closing Taxes as shown on the Pre-Closing Statement, but only to the extent such Taxes are not reflected as a liability on the Final Closing Statement. If, within 10 days after the receipt of the Pre-Closing Period Tax Return and Pre-Closing Statement, the Buyer (a) notifies Seller that it disputes the manner of preparation of the Pre-Closing Period Tax Return or the Pre-Closing Taxes calculated in the Pre-Closing Statement and (b) provide Seller with a statement setting forth in reasonable detail its computation of the Pre-Closing Taxes and their proposed form of the Pre-Closing Tax Return and Pre-Closing Statement, then Buyer and the Seller shall attempt to resolve their disagreement within 5 days following the Buyer’s notification of Seller of such disagreement. If Buyer and the Seller are not able to resolve their disagreement, the dispute shall be submitted to the Firm. The Firm will resolve the disagreement within 5 days after the date on which they are engaged or as soon as possible thereafter. The determination of the Firm shall be binding on the parties. The cost of the services of the Firm will be borne by the party whose calculation of the matter in disagreement differs the most from the calculation as finally determined by the Firm. If each of the party’s calculation differs equally from the calculation as finally determined by the Firm, then such cost will be borne half by the Seller and half by Buyer. All determinations necessary to give effect to the foregoing allocations shall be made in a manner consistent with prior practice of the Company.

(ii)    Straddle Period Taxes. Buyer shall prepare or cause to be prepared and file or cause to be filed any Tax Returns of the Company and its Subsidiaries for Tax periods which begin before the Closing Date and end after the Closing Date (“Straddle Tax Returns”). Buyer shall permit the Seller to review and comment on each such Tax Return prior to filing. Any portion of any Tax which must be paid in connection with the filing of a Straddle Tax Return, to the extent attributable to any period or portion of a period ending on or before the Closing Date, shall be referred to herein as “Pre-Closing Taxes.” Buyer will provide the Seller with copies of any Straddle Tax Returns for the Seller’s reasonable review and comment, at least 30 days (or such other time as is reasonable) prior to the due date thereof (giving effect to any extensions thereto), accompanied by a statement (the “Straddle Statement”) setting forth and calculating in reasonable detail the Taxes that relate to the Pre-Closing Taxes. If the Seller agrees with the Straddle Tax Returns and Straddle Statement, the Seller shall pay to Buyer, not later than 5 Business Days before the due date for the payment of Taxes with respect to such Straddle Tax Return, an amount equal to the Pre-Closing Taxes as shown on the Straddle Statement, but only to the extent such Taxes are not reflected as a liability on the Final Closing Statement. If, within 10 days after the receipt of the Straddle Tax Return and Straddle Statement, the Seller (a) notify Buyer that they dispute the manner of preparation of the Straddle Tax Return or the Pre-Closing Taxes calculated in the Straddle Statement and (b) provide Buyer with a statement setting forth in reasonable detail their computation of the Pre-Closing Taxes and their proposed form of the Straddle Tax Return and Straddle Statement, then Buyer and the Seller shall attempt to resolve their disagreement within 5 days following the Seller’s notification of Buyer of such disagreement. If Buyer and the Seller are not able to resolve their disagreement, the dispute shall be submitted to the Firm. The Firm will resolve the disagreement within 5 days after the date on which they are engaged or as soon as possible thereafter. The determination of the Firm shall be binding on the parties. The cost of the services of the Firm will be borne by the party whose calculation of the matter in disagreement differs the most from the calculation as finally determined by the Firm. If each of the party’s calculation differs equally from the calculation as finally determined by the Firm, then such cost will be borne half by the Seller and half by Buyer. If the Pre-Closing Taxes involve a period which begins before and ends after the Closing Date, such Pre-Closing Taxes shall be calculated as though the taxable year of the Company and its Subsidiaries terminated as of the close of business on the Closing Date; provided however that in the case of a Tax not based on income, receipts, proceeds, profits or similar items, Pre-Closing Taxes shall be equal to the amount of Tax for the taxable period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of days from the beginning of the taxable period through the Closing Date and the denominator of which shall be the number of days in the taxable period. All determinations necessary to give effect to the foregoing allocations shall be made in a manner consistent with prior practice of the Company.
(iii)    Without the prior written consent of the Seller, unless required by law, none of Buyer, Buyer’s Affiliates, or the Company shall file any amended Tax Return, enter into any closing agreement, settle any Tax claim or assessment relating to the Company, extend or waive the limitation period applicable to any Tax claim or assessment, surrender any right to claim a refund of Taxes, or take any other similar action, or omit to take any action relating to the filing of any Tax Return or the payment of any Tax, if such action or omission would have the effect of increasing the Tax liability of the Company or the Seller for any Tax period (or portion thereof) ending on or prior to the Closing Date.

xviii




(iv)    If the Seller determines that the Company is entitled to file or make a formal or informal claim for refund or an amended Tax Return providing for a refund for the Company or the Seller with respect to a taxable period ending on or before the Closing Date, then Buyer will (so long as not inconsistent with applicable Law), if the Seller so requests and at the Seller’s expense, cause the relevant entity to file or make such claim or amended Tax Return; provided, that any such action does not increase Taxes of Buyer, the Company, any of their Affiliates or any of their direct or indirect owners for any period ending after the Closing Date.
(v)    Cooperation on Tax Matters.    Buyer and the Seller will cooperate, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other party, in connection with the filing and preparation of Tax Returns pursuant to this Section 5(d) and any proceeding related thereto. Such cooperation will include the retention and (upon the other party’s request) the provision of records and information that are reasonably relevant to any such Proceeding and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. Buyer and the Seller will retain all books and records with respect to Tax matters pertinent to the Company relating to any Tax period beginning before the Closing Date until 30 days after the expiration of the statute or period of limitations of the respective Tax periods.
(vi)    All transfer (including real estate transfer), documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration and other such Taxes and fees (including any penalties and interest) incurred in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby will be paid in equal shares by the Buyer and Seller when due, and the Buyer will file all necessary Tax Returns and other documentation with respect to all such transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration and other Taxes and fees, and, if required by applicable Law.
(vii)    During the period from the date of this Agreement to the Closing Date, Seller shall not file any amended Tax Returns with respect to the Company, shall not enter into any closing agreement with respect to Taxes of the Company, shall not settle any Tax claim or assessment or surrender any right to claim a Tax refund with respect to the Company, and shall not cause the Company to do the same.

(e)    Buyer Party Release.
(4)    Subject to Section 5(e)(2) below, each of Buyer, the Company, its Subsidiaries, RV Rewards, Elias, Feldstein and Brodsky, on behalf of itself or himself and its or his Affiliates, Representatives, successors, heirs, assigns and all other Persons claiming by, through, for or under it or him or on its or his behalf (such other persons collectively, the “Buyer Related Parties”) hereby irrevocably and unconditionally releases, settles, cancels, discharges and acknowledges to be fully and finally satisfied any and all claims, demands, proceedings, causes of action, orders, obligations, contracts, agreements, debts and liabilities whatsoever, both at law and in equity (“Claims”) that the Buyer Related Parties now have, have ever had or may hereafter have against Seller or MasTec or any of their respective present and former shareholders, Representatives, Affiliates, predecessors, successors and assigns (collectively, the “Seller Released Parties”), that are on account of any matter whatsoever arising prior to or as of the Closing or attributable to such period (whether such Claims are known or unknown, knowable or unknowable, suspected or unsuspected) (all Claims released in this Section 5(e)(1) are referred to as the “Released Buyer Party Claims”). TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, EACH BUYER RELATED PARTY WAIVES THE BENEFIT OF ANY PROVISION OF APPLICABLE LAW TO THE EFFECT THAT A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE RELEASING PARTY DID NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN THE RELEASING PARTY’S FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY THE RELEASING PARTY MAY HAVE AFFECTED ITS SETTLEMENT WITH THE RELEASED PARTY.
(5)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained in Section 5(e)(1) will be deemed to waive, release, alter or otherwise impair any rights or Claims of any Person (x) arising under or related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby; or (y) arising under or related to any agreement entered into in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

xix




(6)    Each of Buyer, the Company, its Subsidiaries, RV Rewards, Elias, Feldstein and Brodsky agrees that neither it or he nor any of its or his Buyer Related Parties, will assert, bring, file, institute, prosecute, maintain, participate in, or cause to be commenced, either directly or indirectly, any Proceeding against any Seller Released Party, in or before any court, Governmental Authority, arbitrator or mediator for or relating to any of the Released Buyer Party Claims. Each of Buyer, the Company, its Subsidiaries, RV Rewards, Elias, Feldstein and Brodsky represents that neither it or he nor any of its or his Affiliates has filed or caused to be filed any Claim of any kind against any Seller Released Party, which is now pending with any court, Governmental Authority, arbitrator or mediator. Without in any way limiting any of the rights and remedies otherwise available to each Seller Released Party, each of Buyer, the Company, its Subsidiaries, RV Rewards, Elias, Feldstein and Brodsky agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Seller Released Party from and against any Damages in the event it becomes necessary for any Seller Released Party to defend any Released Buyer Party Claim asserted by any Buyer Related Parties.
(f)    Buyer’s Due Diligence Investigation.
(1)    Buyer acknowledges and agrees that none of the Company, the Seller, their Affiliates and representatives has made any representations or warranties regarding the Company, its Subsidiaries, the Seller, the Business, the Purchased Units, the assets or operations of Company and its Subsidiaries or otherwise in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, other than the representations and warranties expressly made in Section 3. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Buyer acknowledges and agrees that no projections, forecasts and predictions, other estimates, data, financial information, documents, reports, statements (oral or written), summaries, abstracts, descriptions, presentations, memoranda, or offering materials, is or shall be deemed to be a representation or warranty by the Company or Seller to Buyer, under this Agreement, or otherwise, and that Buyer has not relied thereon in determining to execute this Agreement and proceed with the transactions contemplated hereby. Buyer further acknowledges and agrees that materials its Representatives have received from the Company, the Seller and their representatives, include projections, forecasts and predictions relating to the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ Business; that there are uncertainties inherent in attempting to make such projections, forecasts and predictions; that Buyer is familiar with such uncertainties and is taking full responsibility for making its own evaluations of the adequacy and accuracy of all projections, forecasts, predictions and information so furnished; that Buyer shall not have any claims against the Company, the Seller, their officers, directors, Affiliates or representatives with respect thereto; and that Buyer has not relied thereon. Buyer acknowledges that no Person has been authorized by the Company or Seller to make any representation or warranty regarding the Company, its Subsidiaries, Seller, the Business, the assets or operations of the Company or its Subsidiaries, the Purchased Units or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and, if made, such representation or warranty may not be relied upon as having been authorized by the Company, Funraisers, Seller or their Affiliates.
(2)    Buyer acknowledges and agrees that it has (i) at all times prior to the Closing, managed and operated the Company and its Subsidiaries in accordance with the Services Agreement; (ii) made its own inquiry and investigation into, and, based thereon and on the representations and warranties set forth in Section 3, has formed an independent judgment concerning the Company and its Subsidiaries and the Business, and (iii) conducted such investigations of the Company and its Subsidiaries and the Business as Buyer deems necessary to satisfy itself as to the operations and conditions thereof, and will rely solely on such investigations and inquiries, and the express representations and warranties of the Seller set forth in Section 3. Buyer further acknowledges and agrees that it will not at any time assert any Claim against the Seller, the Company, its Subsidiaries or any of their present and former representatives or Affiliates or attempt to hold any of such Persons liable, for any inaccuracies, misstatements or omissions with respect to the information furnished by such Persons concerning Seller, the Business, the Company, its Subsidiaries or the Purchased Units other than any inaccuracies or misstatements in the representations and warranties expressly set forth in Section 3 (subject to the limitations and expiration set forth in Section 7).
(g)    Confidentiality.
(1)    Seller acknowledges that in connection with such Seller’s ownership of the Units two of Seller’s employees, Hugo Bogani and Craig Tramontano (the “Informed Employees”), have had access to certain limited confidential, non-public information of the Company, its Subsidiaries, and Buyer specifically limited to: strategic partner pricing information, customer lists, revenue margins, customer and partner contract terms, and marketing information held in confidence by the Company, its Subsidiaries or Buyer that are not known by the public or any other employees, officers, directors, agents or representatives of the Seller (such information, “Confidential Information”). Seller agrees that for a period of one (1) year following the Closing, it will not use any

xx




of the Confidential Information, for its own account or the account of any third party, in connection with the solicitation of or communication with any of the Company’s, its Subsidiaries’ or Buyer’s existing strategic partners, customers, suppliers or other business relationships, except as expressly permitted by, or required and contemplated to achieve the purposes of, this Agreement, nor disclose such Confidential Information to any third party, except as required by law, rule, regulation, stock exchange rule or regulation, order of a court of competent jurisdiction, administrative agency or Governmental Body, judicial or administrative process, or in connection with any judicial or other proceeding involving Seller or this Agreement (provided that Seller will use its reasonable best efforts to obtain confidential treatment for the Confidential Information so disclosed). Confidential Information pertaining only to the terms of this Agreement may be disclosed by Seller to its attorneys and accountants on a need-to-know basis. Information will not be deemed Confidential Information if such information (i) is or becomes publicly known or publicly available, except through a breach of this Agreement by Seller, (ii) is or becomes available to the Seller from a source other than the Buyer, the Company, its Subsidiaries or the Informed Employees, provided that such source was not Known to Seller to be bound by a confidentiality obligation to Buyer, the Company or its Subsidiaries, (iii) was known or possessed by either of the Informed Employees prior to their association with Buyer, the Company or its Subsidiaries or (iv) is or has been independently developed by Seller or any of Seller’s employees, officers, directors, agents or other representatives without violating the terms of this Section 5(g). Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, none of Seller, the Company, its Subsidiaries or Buyer grants any other license whatsoever by the disclosure of the Confidential Information. On the Closing Date, Seller shall return to the Company or destroy all physical copies of the Confidential Information held by the Informed Employees; provided, however, that Seller shall not be obligated to return, destroy, expunge or erase any Confidential Information (x) to the extent required by applicable law, rule, regulation or other judicial, legal or administrative process, including rules of a professional body, or for internal audit or compliance reasons or (y) held in electronic format including in Seller’s standard electronic backup or archival systems. Seller acknowledges that any breach of the covenants of this Section 5(g) will result in irreparable damage and continuing injury to the Company, its Subsidiaries and Buyer. Therefore, in the event of any breach of the covenants in this Section 5(g), Seller acknowledges that the Company, its Subsidiaries and Buyer shall be entitled to all available remedies under applicable law, including the right to an injunction restraining Seller and its Affiliates, as applicable, from committing any such violation, and Seller hereby consents to the issuance of such injunction.
(2)    The parties acknowledge that the Company is party to those agreements set forth on Exhibit D (the “DirecTV Agreements”). In connection therewith, the Seller was provided information subject to restrictions set forth therein. Seller agrees that it will not use any such information in violation of such DirecTV Agreements without the consent of DirecTV.

Except as otherwise provided in this Section 7(d), (i) neither Seller nor Buyer shall have any liability for indemnification hereunder with respect to any representation or warranty or any covenant or obligation to be performed or complied with on or prior to the Closing Date, unless on or before the second anniversary of the Closing Date, the indemnified party notifies the indemnifying party of a claim specifying the factual basis of that claim in reasonable detail to the extent then known by the indemnified party and (ii) neither Seller nor Buyer shall have any liability for indemnification hereunder with respect to any covenant or obligation to be performed or complied with after the Closing Date, unless on or before the second anniversary of the breach of such covenant or obligation, the indemnified party notifies the indemnifying party of a claim specifying the factual basis of that claim in reasonable detail to the extent then known by the indemnified party.

(e)    Limitations on Amount--Seller. If the Closing occurs, except as set forth below, Seller’s collective liability for indemnification under Sections 7(b)(1) shall be limited to an amount equal to 10% of the Purchase Price (the “Cap”). Seller shall have no liability for indemnification under Sections 7(b)(1) hereunder unless and until the total of all Damages exceeds 2.5% of the Purchase Price (the “Deductible”), at which time the Seller shall be liable for all Damages exceeding the Deductible, but for clarity, subject to the Cap. The Deductible is not on a per occurrence basis rather it shall be satisfied by the total sum of all Damages. This section shall not apply to breaches of the representations and warranties contained Sections 3(a), 3(b), 3(e), 3(k)or 7(b)(4) or

xxiii




to any actual (and not constructive) fraudulent breach of a representation or warranty. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, under no circumstances shall Seller have liability pursuant to this Agreement for an amount in excess of the Purchase Price actually received by Seller.
(f)    Limitations on Amount--Buyer. Buyer shall have no liability for indemnification under Section 7(c)(1) hereunder unless and until the total of all Damages exceeds the Deductible, at which time Buyer shall be liable for all Damages exceeding the Deductible; provided, however, that in no case shall the liability of Buyer to make indemnification payments under Section 7(c)(1) exceed an amount equal to the Cap. The Deductible is not on a per occurrence basis rather it shall be satisfied by the total sum of all Damages. This section shall not apply to breaches of the representations and warranties contained Sections 4(a), 4(b), 4(e), 4(g), 4(h), 4(i) or 4(j) or to any actual (and not constructive) fraudulent breach of a representation or warranty.
(g)    Procedure for Indemnification--Third Party Claims.
(1)    Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party of notice of the commencement of any Proceeding against it, such indemnified party shall, if a claim is to be made against an indemnifying party, give notice to the indemnifying party of the commencement of such claim, but the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve the indemnifying party of any liability that it may have to any indemnified party, except to the extent that the indemnifying party demonstrates that the defense of such action was actually prejudiced by the indemnifying party’s failure to give such notice.
(2)    If any Proceeding referred to in Section 7(g)(2) is brought against an indemnified party and it gives notice to the indemnifying party of the commencement of such Proceeding, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate in such Proceeding and, to the extent that it wishes, to assume the defense of such Proceeding with its own counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party and, after notice from the indemnifying party to the indemnified party of its election to assume the defense of such Proceeding, the indemnifying party shall not, as long as it diligently conducts such defense, be liable to the indemnified party under this Section 7 for any fees of other counsel or any other expenses with respect to the defense of such Proceeding, in each case subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense of such Proceeding, other than reasonable costs of investigation; provided, however, that the indemnifying party may not assume and control the defense without the indemnified party’s consent unless (i) the indemnifying party acknowledges in writing its obligation to indemnify the indemnified party for any Damages relating thereto and (ii) the suit, action, claim, liability or obligation does not seek to impose any liability or obligation upon the indemnified party other than money damages (in which case, the indemnified party shall employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnifying party). The indemnified party shall cooperate with the indemnifying party in connection with any such defense. If the indemnifying party assumes the defense of a Proceeding, no compromise or settlement of such claims may be effected by the indemnifying party without the indemnified party’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. If notice is given to an indemnifying party of the commencement of any Proceeding and the indemnifying party does not, within ten (10) days after the indemnified party’s notice is given, give notice to the indemnified party of its election to assume the defense of such Proceeding, the indemnifying party will be bound by any determination made in such Proceeding or any compromise or settlement effected by the indemnified party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an indemnified party determines in good faith that there is a reasonable probability that a Proceeding may adversely affect it or its Affiliates other than as a result of monetary damages for which it would be entitled to indemnification under this Agreement, the indemnified party may, by notice to the indemnifying party, assume the exclusive right to defend, compromise, or settle such Proceeding, but the indemnifying party will not be bound by any determination of a Proceeding so defended or any compromise or settlement effected without, its consent (which may not be unreasonably withheld).



(h)    Procedure for Indemnification--Other Claims. A claim for indemnification for any matter not involving a third-party claim may be asserted by notice to the party from whom indemnification is sought.



xxiv




(i)    Limitation on Damages.
(3)    Damages shall not include any lost business opportunities, lost profits, any measure of damages based on diminution in value or based on any multiple of earnings, revenue or EBITDA or similar concept, punitive, incidental, indirect, special, exemplary and consequential damages, except to the extent such Damages: (A) are paid to third party claimants (for example, and by way of limitation, Damages resulting from the payment of punitive damages awarded to a third-party plaintiff), or (B) arise out of or in connection with actual (and not constructive) fraud or willful misconduct in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby.
(4)    For all purposes of this Agreement, “Damages” shall be net of (i) any net Tax benefits that are or will be received by or accrue to the indemnified party within seven (7) years of the Closing Date, the determination of the amount and timing of any such Tax benefits to be determined at the reasonable discretion of the indemnified party in good faith, provided that if any payment is made by an indemnifying party in respect of such Damages and the indemnified party later actually realizes a Tax benefit in respect of those Damages which has not been previously taken into account in computing that payment, then the indemnified party shall repay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to the Tax savings resulting from such Tax benefit, and (ii) any insurance payable to the indemnified party from insurance policies in connection with the facts giving rise to the right of indemnification, or any insurance that would have been payable to the indemnified party if the policies of insurance effected by or for the benefit of the Company or its Subsidiaries had been maintained after Closing on no less favorable terms than those existing at the date of this Agreement. The indemnified party will use commercially reasonable efforts to collect any amounts available under such insurance coverage. If an indemnified party receives an amount under insurance coverage with respect to Damages at any time subsequent to any indemnification provided by an indemnifying party, then such indemnified party shall promptly reimburse the indemnifying party for any payment made or expense incurred by such party in connection with providing such indemnification up to such amount received by the indemnified party.
(5)    Each party must act promptly to avoid or mitigate any Damages which it or any other indemnified party may suffer in consequence of any fact, matter or circumstance giving rise to a claim for indemnification under this Agreement or likely to give rise to a claim for indemnification under this Agreement. No indemnified party shall be entitled to recover under this Agreement to the extent of any Damages that could have been avoided but for the applicable party’s failure to avoid or mitigate such Damages.
(6)    Any claim for indemnification with respect to a third party claim shall (if such third party claim has not been previously satisfied, settled or withdrawn) be deemed to have been withdrawn six (6) months after the notice is given pursuant to Section 7(g), unless Proceedings in respect of such third party claim have been commenced by being both issued and served. No new claim for indemnification may be made in respect of the facts, matters, events or circumstances giving rise to any such withdrawn claim.
(7)    If any claim for indemnification is based upon a liability which is contingent only, no party shall be liable to pay unless and until such contingent liability gives rise to an obligation to make a payment (but the applicable indemnified parties have the right under Sections 7(g) or 7(h) to give notice of that claim before such time).
(8)    Neither party shall be liable for any claim for indemnification to the extent that it would not have arisen but for, or has been increased or not reduced as a result of, any voluntary act, omission or transaction carried out by the party seeking indemnification or any of its Affiliates (or their directors, employees or agents or successors in title).



(9)    Where an indemnifying party has made a payment to an indemnified party in relation to any claim and the non-indemnifying party or any of its Affiliates is entitled to recover (whether by insurance, payment, discount, credit, relief or otherwise) from a third party a sum which indemnifies or compensates the indemnified party (in whole or in part) in respect of the liability or Damage which is the subject of an indemnity claim, the non-indemnifying party or its relevant Affiliates shall (i) promptly

xxv




notify the indemnifying party of the fact and provide such information as the indemnifying party may reasonably require, (ii) take all reasonable steps or proceedings as the indemnifying party may require to enforce such right, at the indemnifying party’s expense, and (iii) pay to the indemnifying party, as soon as practicable after receipt, an amount equal to the amount recovered from the third party (net of taxation and less any reasonable costs of recovery).
(10)    Neither party shall be liable for any indemnity claim if and to the extent it is attributable to, or the amount of such claim is increased as a result of, any (i) legislation not in force at the date of this Agreement, (ii) change of Legal Requirement (or any change in interpretation on the basis of case law), regulation, directive, requirement or administrative practice or (iii) change in the rates of Tax in force as of the date of this Agreement.
(11)    If a breach of the representations and warranties in Section 3 or Section 4 is capable of remedy, the indemnified parties shall only be entitled to indemnification if the breach is not remedied within thirty (30) days after the date on which notice is served on the indemnifying party in accordance with Sections 7(g) or 7(h), as applicable. Without prejudice to its duty to mitigate any loss, the indemnified parties shall (or shall procure that any of their relevant Affiliates shall) provide all reasonable assistance to the indemnifying party to remedy any such breach, at the indemnifying party’s expense.
(12)    Buyer Indemnified Parties shall not be entitled to recover under this Section 7 with respect to that portion of any Damage that results from the continuation after Closing of any pre-Closing policy or practice of Seller.
(j)    Exclusive Remedy. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the sole remedy of a party for any breach of any of the representations, warranties or covenants contained in this Agreement shall be to exercise the rights under this Section 7, which shall be subject to the procedures and obligations set forth in this Section 7. The parties shall not be entitled to a rescission of this Agreement, or to any further indemnification rights or other claims of any nature whatsoever in respect thereof (whether by contract, common law, statute, law, regulation or otherwise, including under the Racketeer Influence and Corrupt Organizations Act of 1970, as amended), all of which the parties hereby waive.
(k)    No Double Recovery. To the extent the same facts or circumstances serve as the basis for an indemnification claim under multiple subsections of this Section 7, and/or under this Agreement, the party seeking indemnification may pursue such claim under all applicable provisions but shall only receive one recovery for the associated loss or Damages.
8.    TERMINATION.
(a)    Termination. This Agreement may be terminated and the transactions contemplated hereby may be abandoned at any time prior to the Closing Date:

(ii)    if the transactions contemplated shall not have been consummated on or before July 13, 2012 (the “Outside Date”); unless the failure to consummate the transactions is the result of a breach of this Agreement by the party seeking to terminate this Agreement, or unless the delay is attributable to the continued pendency of DOJ or FTC proceedings pursuant to the HSR Act, in which case the Outside Date shall be extended to the date ten (10) business days following final HSR Act approval by both DOJ and FTC;

xxvi




(13)    by Buyer, if Seller breaches in any material respect any of its representations or warranties herein or fail to perform in any material respect any of its covenants, agreements or obligations under this Agreement, which breach has not been cured by the 30th day following receipt by Seller of notice of breach; or
(14)    by Seller, if Buyer breaches in any material respect any of its representations or warranties herein or fails to perform in any material respect any of its covenants, agreements or obligations under this Agreement, which breach has not been cured by the 30th day following receipt by Buyer of notice of breach.
(b)    Effect of Termination. If this Agreement is so terminated and the transactions contemplated hereby are not consummated, this Agreement shall forthwith become void and shall have no further force or effect other than the provisions of Section 1, this Section 8(b) and Section 9; provided, that nothing contained in this Section 8(b) shall relieve any party from liability for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement.

9.    GENERAL PROVISIONS.

(c)    Notices. All notices, consents, waivers, and other communications under this Agreement must be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given when (1) delivered by hand (with written confirmation of receipt), (2) sent by telecopier (with written confirmation of receipt), provided that a copy is mailed by registered mail, return receipt requested, or (3) when received by the addressee, if sent by a nationally recognized overnight delivery service (receipt requested), in each case to the appropriate addresses and telecopier numbers set forth below (or to such other addresses and telecopier numbers as a party may designate by notice to the other parties):

Any action or proceeding seeking to enforce any provision of, or based on any right arising out of, this Agreement will be brought against any of the parties in the courts of the States of Florida or North Carolina, or, if it has or can acquire jurisdiction, in any United States District Court sitting in Florida or North Carolina, and each of the parties consents to the jurisdiction of such courts (and of the appropriate appellate courts) in any such action or proceeding and waives any objection to venue laid therein.
