(b) Within sixty (60) calendar days after the Closing Date, Nexstar shall prepare and deliver to Sellers’ Representative, a statement (the “Closing Statement”) setting forth Nexstar’s good faith determination of (i) the actual amounts of Net Working Capital, Closing Indebtedness, Project Adjustment and Company Transaction Expenses and (ii) a calculation of the Purchase Price based on such amounts.  The Closing Statement shall be prepared in accordance with Section 1.4(i).  The Closing Statement and the determination of calculations set forth therein shall become final and binding upon the Parties on the thirtieth (30th) calendar day after the date upon which such Closing Statement is received by Sellers’ Representative (such 30-day period, the “Objection Period”), unless Sellers’ Representative delivers to Nexstar written notice that it disputes any aspect of the Closing Statement (“Objection Notice”) prior to the end of such Objection Period.  The Objection Notice shall specify in reasonable detail the nature of any dispute so asserted, and any amount contained in the Closing Statement that is not specifically disputed in the Object Notice shall be final and binding on the parties as set forth in the Closing Statement.  If an Objection Notice is delivered to Nexstar prior to the end of the Objection Period, then the Closing Statement and the determination of calculations set forth therein (as revised in accordance with clause (i) or (ii) below) shall become final and binding upon the Parties on the earlier to occur of (i) the date Nexstar and Sellers’ Representative resolve in writing any differences they have with respect to the matters specified in the Objection Notice or (ii) the date any disputed matters are finally resolved by the Accounting Firm as provided below.  The Purchase Price as set forth in the version of the Closing Statement that becomes final and binding on the Parties in accordance with this Section 1.4(b) is referred to herein as the “Final Purchase Price”.
 
(c) From the Closing until such time as all matters set forth in the Objection Notice have been fully and finally resolved in accordance herewith, Nexstar shall (i) maintain and provide to Sellers’ Representative and its advisors and representatives reasonable access to all documents and other information utilized by Nexstar and its representatives and advisors in connection with Nexstar’s preparation of the Closing Statement, including (without limitation) all financial statements, work papers, schedules, accounts, analysis, and books and records relating to the Closing Statement as was utilized by Nexstar in connection with preparation of the Closing Statement; (ii) provide Sellers’ Representative and its representatives and advisors reasonable access to such employees, auditors and advisors and representatives who participated in the preparation or review of, or otherwise have relevant knowledge concerning, the Closing Statement; and (iii) reasonably cooperate with Sellers’ Representative in providing the information and personnel reasonably required by Sellers’ Representative to resolve the matters set forth in the Objection Notice; provided, that any access provided to Sellers’ Representative pursuant to this Section 1.4(c) shall be (x) during regular business hours, (y) with no less than two (2) Business Days prior written notice to Nexstar and (z) in a manner which will not unreasonably interfere with the operation of the Business.  From the Closing until such time as all matters set forth in the Objection Notice have been fully and finally resolved, Sellers’ Representative shall (a) provide Nexstar and its advisors and representatives reasonable access to such employees, auditors and advisors who participated in the preparation or review of, or otherwise have relevant knowledge concerning, the Objection Notice; and (b) reasonably cooperate with Nexstar in providing the information and personnel reasonably required by Nexstar to resolve the matters set forth in the Objection Notice.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if either Party prevents the other Party from obtaining access to any information that such Party has reasonably requested pursuant to this Section 1.4, or if a Party otherwise fails to provide such information on a timely basis after receiving a reasonably specific request for access from the other Party, the Accounting Firm shall have the authority, in its sole discretion to (i) extend the Adjudication Period for such amount of time as the Accounting Firm deems equitable; (ii) direct that the withholding Party promptly provide the other Party with such access as the Accounting Firm deems equitable; and/or (iii) render a decision adverse to the withholding Party in respect of any issue or amount that the Accounting Firm deems equitable given the information that has been withheld.

(h) All fees and expenses relating to the work, if any, to be performed by the Accounting Firm shall be allocated between Nexstar, on the one hand, and the CCA Stockholders, on the other hand, in the same proportion that the aggregate amount of the disputed items so submitted to the Accounting Firm that is unsuccessfully disputed by such Party (as finally determined by the Accounting Firm) bears to the total amount of the disputed items so submitted.  Nexstar, on the one hand, and the CCA Stockholders, on the other hand, shall each pay one-half of any indemnification payments due to the Accounting Firm pursuant to the terms of the Accounting Firm’s engagement hereunder.
 
(i) The Estimated Closing Statement and the Closing Statement and the determinations and calculations contained therein (including the calculation of Net Working Capital) will be prepared and calculated on a consolidated basis for the Companies in accordance with GAAP and, to the extent consistent with GAAP, using the same accounting principles, practices, procedures, policies and methods used and applied by the Companies in the preparation of its audited Financial Statements, except that such statements, calculations and determinations: (i) will not include any purchase accounting or other adjustment arising out of the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (ii) will be based on facts and circumstances as they exist prior to the Closing and will exclude the effect of any act, decision or event occurring on or after the Closing, and (iii) will follow the defined terms contained in this Agreement whether or not such terms are consistent with GAAP.
 
(j) For Tax purposes, the Final Purchase Price shall reflect all adjustments to the Initial Purchase Price resulting from the Closing Statement, any agreement of the parties as to Final Purchase Price or the Accounting Firm’s written determination, as applicable.

(j) Tax Proceedings.
 
(i) The Sellers’ Representative, on behalf of the CCA Stockholders, shall have the right to conduct and control any audit, examination, litigation or other proceeding with respect to Taxes (a “Tax Proceeding”) involving the Companies to the extent it relates to any Pre-Closing Tax Period, provided, however, that the Sellers’ Representative will not, without the written consent of Buyers, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, settle or compromise any such Tax Proceeding in a manner that would have the effect of materially increasing the Taxes of the Companies in a Post-Closing Tax Period.  Buyers shall have the right to participate in such proceeding at their own expense.

(a) 401(k) Plan Termination.  Prior to the Closing Date and effective no later than at least one day prior to the Closing Date, CCA shall, and shall cause the other Companies to, take all corporate actions as are necessary or appropriate to terminate the White Knight Broadcasting 401(k) Plan and the Communications Corporation of America 401(k) Plan (each a “401(k) Plan” and together the “401(k) Plans”) in accordance with their terms and the requirements of Applicable Law.
 
(b) Benefit Plan Compliance Corrections.  Prior to the Closing, CCA shall, and shall cause the other Companies to, take all actions as are reasonably necessary or appropriate to bring the Benefit Plans into material compliance with Applicable Law, by addressing (i) the failure of any entity that participated in any 401(k) Plan in 2009 or after to have timely and properly adopted or executed any participation agreement or other documentation required for such entity to participate thereunder, and (ii) any multiple employer plan reporting and disclosure and non-discrimination testing failures under the Benefit Plans, with such actions to include, if applicable:  (A) submitting a filing to the Internal Revenue Service under the Voluntary Correction Program with Service Approval (“VCP”) component of the Employee Plans Compliance Resolution System (“EPCRS”) pursuant to Revenue Procedure 2013-12 (or any superseding Revenue Procedure) and the taking of all actions required by the Internal Revenue Service to obtain and implement the requirements of a compliance statement as defined in and pursuant to the provisions of EPCRS (to the extent the relevant 401(k) Plan is eligible for the EPCRS, or if the relevant 401(k) Plan is not eligible for the EPCRS, by taking all actions as are reasonably necessary or appropriate to bring the relevant 401(k) Plan into material compliance with Applicable Law), and (B)  submitting a filing under the Department of Labor’s Voluntary Fiduciary Correction Program (“VFCP”) and using commercially reasonable efforts to take all actions necessary to obtain an agreement with the Department of Labor that no penalties will be imposed in connection with any breach of fiduciary duty or prohibited transaction relating to the 401(k) Plans.  For the avoidance of doubt, final remediation of the issues described in this Section 6.20(b) is not a condition to Closing.

(iii) the indemnifying party shall not, without the indemnified party’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), settle or compromise any Third Party Claim or consent to entry of any judgment which (A) settlement, compromise or judgment does not include the giving by the Person making the Third Party Claim to the indemnified party of a release, without prejudice, from all liability and obligations in respect of such Third Party Claim, and (B) contains any covenants or undertakings binding on the indemnified party other than customary agreements to keep the terms of such settlement or compromise confidential; and

.  Subject to Section 11.2 and Section 11.6, in the event of a termination of this Agreement by either Sellers’ Representative, on the one hand, or Buyers, on the other hand, as provided in Section 11.1, this Agreement shall terminate and, subject to Section 11.5, there shall be no liability or obligation on the part of any CCA Stockholder, the Sellers’ Representative, Buyers or their respective directors, officers, employees, incorporators, members, partners, equityholders, Affiliates, agents, attorneys or representatives; provided that the provisions of this Section 11.3 and Section 6.1 (Confidentiality), Section 6.12(b) (Financing Assistance), Section 11.5 (Liquidated Damages), Section 11.6 (Return of Escrow Deposit), Article 12 (Sellers’ Representative), (Section 13.1 (Expenses), Section 13.6 (Entire Agreement), Section 13.9 (Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial), Section 13.10 (Neutral Construction), Section 13.12 (Counterparts; Delivery by Facsimile/Email), Section 13.13 (Interpretation) and Section 13.15 (Mutual Non-Recourse) shall remain in full force and effect and survive any termination of this Agreement; provided, however, that, subject to Section 11.6, any such termination shall not relieve any Party of any liability for any breach or default of this Agreement that occurred prior to such termination.
 
11.4 Specific Performance
 
.
 
(a) Subject to Sections 11.4(b), 11.5 and 1.6, the Parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the Parties hereto would be irreparably damaged if any of the provisions of this Agreement are not performed in accordance with their specific terms or are otherwise breached and that any non-performance or breach of this Agreement by any Party hereto could not be adequately compensated by monetary damages alone and that the Parties hereto would not have any adequate remedy at law. Accordingly, in addition to any other right or remedy to which any Party hereto may be entitled, at law or in equity (including monetary damages), subject to Sections 11.4(b), 11.5 and 1.6, prior to the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 11.1, such Party shall be entitled to enforce any provision of this Agreement by a decree of specific performance and to temporary, preliminary and permanent injunctive relief, subject to obtaining any required Governmental Consents, to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of any of the provisions of this Agreement without posting any bond or other undertaking.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Parties hereto agree that, subject to Section 11.4(b), the Party seeking specific performance shall be entitled to enforce specifically (a) a Party’s obligations under Section 1.7; and (b) a Party’s obligation to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including the obligation to consummate the Closing and to pay the Purchase Price, if applicable), if the conditions set forth in Section 1.6, Article 7 or Article 8, as applicable, have been satisfied (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing) or waived.
 
(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is explicitly agreed that the Sellers’ Representative, on behalf of the CCA Stockholders, shall be entitled to seek specific performance of Buyers’ obligation to consummate the Closing (including the consummation of the purchase of the CCA Shares and the WK Shares).  Without limiting the foregoing, CCA agrees that Buyers may enforce CCA’s rights with respect to the White Knight Entities’ obligations under the Options and the Option Exercise Agreement, as it relates to the WK Shares, and under the Option Exercise Agreement directly against the WK Seller, and Buyers hereby agree that they shall enforce any Claim under the Options and the Option Exercise Agreement against WK Seller prior to making a Claim against the CCA Stockholders under Section 6.14 or Article 10.  For the avoidance of doubt, the Sellers’ Representative may take any of the actions permitted by this Section 11.4 on behalf of and in the name of the CCA Stockholders.
 
11.5 Liquidated Damages
 
.
 
(a) If Sellers’ Representative, on behalf of the CCA Stockholders, terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 11.1(c) under circumstances where (x) all of the conditions set forth in Section 1.6, Article 7 and Article 8 (other than those conditions that (i) by their nature would be satisfied at the Closing by actions that the Sellers’ Representative has indicated in writing to Buyers that the CCA Stockholders are willing and able to take or (ii) are unsatisfied as a result of Buyers’ breach of their representations and warranties or default in the performance of their covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement and the failure of such breaches or defaults to be cured within the Cure Period to the extent provided herein) have been satisfied or waived and (y) the Buyers have not consummated the Closing within two (2) Business Days after the date on which the Closing is scheduled to occur pursuant to Section 1.6(a), then the Escrow Deposit Fund shall be paid to CCA (or CCA’s designee) pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the Escrow Agreement, Nexstar and the Sellers’ Representative shall execute and deliver to the Escrow Agent written instructions to such effect and such payment shall constitute liquidated damages.  Buyers acknowledge and agree that the payment of the Escrow Deposit Fund pursuant to this Section 11.5 shall constitute payment of liquidated damages and not a penalty and that such liquidated damages amount is reasonable in light of the substantial but indeterminate harm anticipated to be caused by Buyers’ material breach or default under this Agreement, the difficulty of proof of loss and damages, the inconvenience and non-feasibility of otherwise obtaining an adequate remedy, and the value of the transactions to be consummated hereunder.
 
(b) Each of the CCA Stockholders, the Companies and the WK Seller acknowledge and agree that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 11.1, under circumstances of termination by Sellers’ Representative delineated in Section 11.5(a), except in the case of fraud with scienter, the sole and exclusive remedy of such Party hereunder shall be the right to seek payment from the Escrow Deposit Fund pursuant to this Section 11.5 and in no event shall the Sellers’ Representative, any of the CCA Stockholders, the WK Seller, any Company or any of their respective Affiliates seek any damages or any other recovery, judgment of any kind, including consequential, indirect, or punitive damages against any Buyer, and the Sellers’ Representative, any of the CCA Stockholders, the WK Seller, any Company or any of their respective Affiliates shall be precluded from any other remedy against any Buyer at law or in equity or otherwise.
 
(c) The Parties acknowledge that the agreements contained in this Section 11.5 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and that, without these agreements, no Party would enter into this Agreement.
 
11.6 Return of Escrow Deposit
 
.  In all cases of termination of this Agreement, other than a termination of this Agreement by Sellers’ Representative on behalf of the CCA Stockholders which results in the payment of the Escrow Deposit Fund to CCA (or Seller’s designee) in accordance with Section 11.5 hereof, the Escrow Deposit Fund shall be paid to Buyers upon a termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms, and Nexstar and the Sellers’ Representative shall execute and deliver to the Escrow Agent written instructions to such effect.

(i) to make, execute, acknowledge, receive and deliver all such other agreements, settlement agreements, release of Claims, guarantees, orders, receipts, endorsements, notices, requests, information, instructions, certificates, stock powers, letters and other writings, and, in general, to do any and all things and to take any and all action that the Sellers’ Representative, in its reasonable discretion, may consider necessary or appropriate in connection with or to carry out the Transactions;

(k) to take all such actions as may be reasonably necessary after the date hereof, including without limitation after the Closing Date, to carry out any of the Transactions, including the actions required or permitted to be taken by the Sellers’ Representative under Section 6.14 or Article 10 and the defense and/or settlement of any Claims for which indemnification is sought pursuant to Section 6.12(b), Section 6.14 or Article 10 (in each case, other than Claims the Damages for which any CCA Stockholder (i) is or may be solely liable, (ii) is or may be liable in an amount different from the amount of such Damages for which any other CCA Stockholder may be liable subject to pro rata calculation, or (iii) may have different defenses than any other CCA Stockholder).
 
(l) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Sellers’ Representative may not take or refrain from taking any action that would have the legal or practical effect of treating any CCA Stockholder differently from any other CCA Stockholder or result in any CCA Stockholder being subject to any injunctive or equitable relief or non-monetary damages or making any admission of wrong doing; provided, that, for the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 12.1(l) shall prohibit the Sellers’ Representative from taking, prior to Closing, any action explicitly permitted by the Stockholders’ Agreement or any other agreement among the CCA Stockholders or related to the Companies, or, after Closing, with respect to the CCA Stockholders only, any action that would have been explicitly permitted under the Stockholders’ Agreement or such other agreement if it remained in effect.

Each CCA Stockholder hereby authorizes the Sellers’ Representative to apply proceeds otherwise distributable to such CCA Stockholder pursuant to this Agreement to satisfy any of such CCA Stockholder’s obligations under this Section 12.6.  Each CCA Stockholder acknowledges and agrees that the foregoing indemnities shall survive the resignation or removal of the Sellers’ Representative or the termination of this Agreement. 
 
(b) In the event of any indemnification under this Agreement, upon written notice from the Sellers’ Representative to the CCA Stockholders as to the existence of a deficiency toward the payment of any such indemnification amount, each CCA Stockholder shall promptly deliver to the Sellers’ Representative full payment of his or her Pro Rata Portion of the amount of such deficiency.

12.8 Administration
 
.  Without limiting any provision of Article 12 hereof, each of the Parties acknowledges and agrees that the Sellers’ Representative is a party to this Agreement solely to perform certain administrative functions in connection with the consummation of the Transactions.  Accordingly, each of the Parties acknowledges and agrees that the Sellers’ Representative (solely in its capacity as such) shall have no liability to, and shall not be liable for any Damages of, any Party or any Person entitled to indemnification under the other sections of this Agreement in connection with any obligations of the Sellers’ Representative under this Agreement or the Transaction Documents or otherwise in respect of this Agreement or the Transactions.  In furtherance (and not in limitation) of the provisions set forth in this Article 12, the CCA Stockholders shall use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to take or cause to be taken all reasonable actions necessary or desirable to effect this Article 12 or as otherwise reasonably requested by the Sellers’ Representative in connection with the Transactions as promptly as is practicable.
 
12.9 Resignation
 
.  The Sellers’ Representative may at any time resign by giving written notice of its resignation to Buyers and the CCA Stockholders (at the address specified in Annex E hereto) specifying the date on which its resignation shall become effective; provided that such resignation shall not be effective until the CCA Stockholders, by the affirmative vote of the CCA Stockholders holding CCA Shares that represent over 50% of the number of outstanding CCA Shares immediately prior to the Closing, appoint a successor Sellers’ Representative which agrees in writing with the Parties hereto to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement applicable to the Sellers’ Representative, and notify Buyers in writing of such appointment.
 
12.10 Survival/General
 
.  Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, the agreements in this Article 12 shall survive termination of this Agreement.  All of the indemnities, immunities and powers granted to the Sellers’ Representative under this Agreement shall survive the Closing Date and/or any termination of this Agreement and/or the Transaction Documents.  The provisions of this Article 12 shall be binding upon any successor, executor, trustee or permitted assign of a CCA Stockholder.
