(a) At Seller’s request and direction, Buyer shall pay or cause to be paid to each lender under the loan agreements specified by Seller in writing not less than five (5) days prior to the Closing Date, to an account designated by such lender in writing, the amount of the indebtedness specified in such lender’s pay-off letter.

(b) At Seller’s request and direction, Buyer shall pay or cause to be paid all identified Company Transaction Costs that remain outstanding as of the Closing Date to such account or accounts as are designated by Seller.

2.4 Working Capital Adjustment.

(a) No later than five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, Seller shall deliver to Buyer an unaudited pro forma estimated balance sheet for the Acquired Companies, as of 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the date prior to the Closing Date (the “Estimated Closing Balance Sheet”), together with an estimated, itemized calculation, based on the Estimated Closing Balance Sheet, of the Net Working Capital Amount as of 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the date prior to the Closing Date (the “Estimated Net Working Capital Amount”).The Estimated Closing Balance Sheet shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP using the same accounting principles, policies and methods as were historically used by Seller in preparing the Financial Statements in connection with the calculation of each of the line items reflected thereon.

(b) At any time prior to the Closing Date, Buyer shall have the right to object to the Estimated Closing Balance Sheet or the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount by delivering written notice of such objection to Seller. If Buyer does not provide such written notice of objection to Seller, then the Estimated Closing Balance Sheet and the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount shall, subject to Section 2.4(d), be deemed accepted by Buyer. If, on the other hand, Buyer provides such written notice of objection to Seller, then representatives of Buyer and Seller shall meet as promptly as practicable to discuss in good faith the proper Estimated Closing Balance Sheet and the proper Estimated Net Working Capital Amount;provided, however, that if such representatives of Buyer and Seller are unable to agree in good faith prior to the Closing Date on the proper Estimated Closing Balance Sheet and the proper Estimated Net Working Capital Amount, then the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount shall be deemed to be equal to the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount as presented by Seller.

(c) At the Closing, the Purchase Price shall be (i) increased by the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount if the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount is a positive number, and (ii) decreased by the absolute value of the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount, if the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount is a negative number; provided, that, notwithstanding the actual amount, in no event shall any increase to the Purchase Price pursuant to thisSection 2.4(c) exceed Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000.00).

(d) Within sixty (60) days following the Closing Date, Buyer shall prepare and deliver to Seller an unaudited balance sheet for the Acquired Companies as of 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the date prior to the Closing Date (the “Reviewed Closing Balance Sheet”),together with an itemized calculation, based on the Reviewed Closing Balance Sheet, of the Net Working Capital Amount as of 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the date prior to the Closing Date (the“Reviewed Net Working Capital Amount”).The Reviewed Closing Balance Sheet shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP using the same accounting principles, policies and methods as were historically used by Seller in preparing the Financial Statements in connection with the calculation of each of the line items reflected thereon.

(e) If Seller disagrees with the Reviewed Closing Balance Sheet or Buyer’s calculation of the Reviewed Net Working Capital Amount, then during the thirty (30) days following the date of Seller’s receipt of the Reviewed Closing Balance Sheet, Buyer and the Acquired Companies shall each provide Seller with access to the working papers of Buyer and the Acquired Companies relating to the Reviewed Closing Balance Sheet and the resulting calculation of the Reviewed Net Working Capital Amount, as well as any other information used in preparing the Reviewed Closing Balance Sheet as is reasonably requested by Seller. The Reviewed Closing Balance Sheet and the resulting calculation of the Reviewed Net Working Capital Amount shall become final and binding at the end of such thirty (30) day period unless, prior to the end of such period, Seller has delivered to Buyer written notice of its disagreement with such Reviewed Closing Balance Sheet and the resulting calculation of the Reviewed Net Working Capital Amount (a “Disagreement Notice”), specifying the nature and amount of any disputed item.

(f) In the event that any Disagreement Notice is timely provided to Buyer pursuant to Section 2.4(e), Buyer and Seller shall cooperate for a period of thirty (30) days following Buyer’s receipt of the Disagreement Notice (or such longer period as Buyer and Seller may mutually agree) to resolve any disagreements with respect to the Reviewed Closing Balance Sheet and the Reviewed Net Working Capital Amount. If, at the end of such thirty (30) day period, Buyer and Seller are unable to resolve any disagreements with respect to the Reviewed Closing Balance Sheet or the Reviewed Net Working Capital Amount, then a mutually acceptable, nationally recognized independent accounting firm that does not then have a relationship with Seller or Buyer (the“Independent Accountant”) shall be engaged to resolve any remaining disagreements with respect to the Reviewed Closing Balance Sheet and/or the Reviewed Net Working Capital Amount. Buyer and Seller shall instruct the Independent Accountant to determine as promptly as practicable, but in any event within thirty (30) days of the date on which such dispute is referred to the Independent Accountant, whether and to what extent the Reviewed Closing Balance Sheet and/or the Reviewed Net Working Capital Amount requires adjustment; provided, however, that the Independent Accountant shall be authorized to resolve only those items remaining in dispute between Buyer and Seller as specified in the Disagreement Notice, in each case within the range of the difference between Buyer’s position with respect thereto and Seller’s position with respect thereto. The fees and expenses of the Independent Accountant (including any indemnity obligations to the Independent Accountant) shall be allocated between Buyer and Seller based on their relative success with respect to the disputed items (as finally determined by the Independent Accountant). The fees and expenses (if any) of Buyer’s independent auditors and attorneys incurred in connection with the review of the Disagreement Notice shall be borne by Buyer, and the fees and expenses (if any) of Seller’s independent auditors and attorneys incurred in connection with their review of the Reviewed Net Working Capital Amount shall be borne by Seller.

(g) The“Final Net Working Capital Amount” shall be equal to (i) the Reviewed Net Working Capital Amount, in the event that Seller does not provide a Disagreement Notice to Buyer within the thirty (30) day period provided for in Section 2.4(e) or (ii) the as-adjusted Reviewed Net Working Capital Amount as determined by the parties or the Independent Accountant pursuant to Section 2.4(f), in the event that Seller provides a Disagreement Notice to Buyer within the thirty (30) day period provided for in Section 2.4(e).The Final Net Working Capital Amount shall be set forth on the“Final Closing Balance Sheet”, which shall be (x) the Reviewed Closing Balance Sheet in the event that Seller does not provide a Disagreement Notice to Buyer within the thirty (30) day period provided for in Section 2.4(e) or (y) the as-adjusted Reviewed Closing Balance Sheet as determined by the parties or the Independent Accountant pursuant toSection 2.4(f), in the event that Seller provides a Disagreement Notice to Buyer within the thirty (30) day period provided for in Section 2.4(e).

(h) If the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount is greater than the Final Net Working Capital Amount, then the difference between the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount,minus the Final Net Working Capital Amount shall be referred to as a“Reviewed Net Working Capital Shortfall”.If the Final Net Working Capital Amount is greater than the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount, then the difference between the Final Net Working Capital Amount,minus the Estimated Net Working Capital Amount shall be referred to as a “Reviewed Net Working Capital Overage”.

(i) The“Final Adjustment Amount”shall be an amount equal to either the Reviewed Net Working Capital Shortfall or the Reviewed Net Working Capital Overage, as applicable. In the event that the Final Adjustment Amount is a Reviewed Net Working Capital Shortfall, the Purchase Price shall be reduced by such amount, Buyer shall recover such amount from the Escrow Fund pursuant to joint written instructions of Buyer and Seller delivered to the Escrow Agent, and Seller shall be paid any amount remaining in the Escrow Fund after Buyer so recovers pursuant to such joint written instructions of Buyer and Seller. In the event that the Final Adjustment Amount is a Reviewed Net Working Capital Overage, the Purchase Price shall be increased by such amount and Buyer shall pay such amount to Seller by wire transfer in immediately available funds to an account(s) designated by Seller, and Seller shall be paid the Escrow Fund pursuant to joint written instructions of Buyer and Seller.

(j) Any payments to be made pursuant to Section 2.4(i) shall be made within five (5) days of the final determination of the Final Adjustment Amount pursuant toSection 2.4(i).

2.5 Closing.

(a) Subject to any prior termination of this Agreement pursuant toSection 12.1, the consummation of the sale and purchase of the Equity Interests pursuant to this Agreement shall take place at the offices of Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld LLP located at 1333 New Hampshire Avenue, N.W., Washington D.C. 20036 on (i) the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date that is the later of (x) the date on which the FCC Consent shall have been granted and shall be in full force and effect, and shall have become a Final Order and (y) the date on which the HSR Clearance has been obtained, or (ii) such other date or at such other location as is mutually agreed to Buyer and Seller in writing (as applicable, the“Closing Date”), subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions to Closing set forth herein (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing but subject to the satisfaction or waiver of such conditions at the Closing);provided, however, that, notwithstandingSection 7.3, Buyer, in its sole discretion, may waive the requirement that the FCC Consent become a Final Order; andprovided,further, that, if the Marketing Period has not ended on the last date the Closing shall be required to occur pursuant to the foregoing, the Closing shall not occur until the earlier to occur of (x) a date during the Marketing Period specified by Buyer on three (3) Business Days’ written notice to Seller and (y) the third (3rd) Business Day immediately following the end of the Marketing Period (subject in each case to the satisfaction or waiver of all of the conditions set forth in Article 7 and Article 8 (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver of such conditions at the Closing) as of the date determined pursuant to this proviso) (the “Closing”).

(b) A breach by a party of its obligations to effect the Closing pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, including this Section 2.5, shall be subject to Section 12.1(b) or Section 12.1(c), as applicable (and shall not be subject to the Cure Period under Section 12.2).

(c) For purposes of this Agreement, the“Effective Time” means 12:01 a.m. Eastern Time on the Closing Date with respect to the Closing.

2.6 Governmental Consents.

(a) Upon the earlier to occur of: (i) fifty-five (55) days after the Execution Date and (ii) ten (10) days after the last to be executed of the purchase agreements for the Overlap Station Assets, Buyer and Seller shall, and Seller shall cause the Acquired Companies to, jointly file an application or applications with the FCC requesting the grant of its consent to the transfer of control of the Acquired Companies from Seller to Buyer (collectively, the “FCC Application”). To the extent applicable, Buyer shall include in the FCC Application an exhibit requesting that the FCC grant continued satellite status for the Stations currently operating as satellite stations under FCC rules. Buyer and Seller shall, and Seller shall cause the Acquired Companies to, diligently prosecute the FCC Application and otherwise use their reasonable best efforts to obtain the FCC Consent as soon as practicable. Seller and Buyer each shall oppose any petitions to deny or other objections filed with respect to the FCC Applications to the extent such petition or objection relates to such party. Except as set forth onSchedule 4.5(b), neither Buyer nor Seller shall, and Seller shall cause the Acquired Companies not to, take any intentional action which would, or intentionally fail to take such action the failure of which to take would, reasonably be expected to materially delay, materially impede or prevent receipt of the grant of the FCC Consent.

(b) Upon the earlier to occur of: (i) fifty-five (55) days after the Execution Date and (ii) ten (10) days after the last to be executed of the purchase agreements for the Overlap Station Assets, Buyer and Seller shall make any required filings with the FTC and the DOJ pursuant to the HSR Act, with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby for all Stations (including a request for early termination of the waiting period thereunder), and shall thereafter promptly respond to all requests received from such agencies for additional information or documentation and otherwise use their reasonable best efforts to obtain the expiration or termination of any applicable waiting period under the HSR Act (the “HSR Clearance”). Any filing fees payable under the HSR Act relating to the transactions contemplated hereby shall be borne one-half (1/2) by Buyer and one- half (1/2) by Seller,provided, however, that if more than one HSR Act filing is necessary because a party has more than one ultimate parent entity, then such party shall pay the HSR Act filing fees for any additional filings, in each case, irrespective of whether the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated.

(c) The FCC Licenses of the Stations expire on the dates corresponding thereto as set forth onSchedule2.6(c). Seller or its applicable Subsidiary shall prosecute each application for renewal of any FCC License (a “Renewal Application”) that is pending on the Execution Date, and shall timely file and prosecute any Renewal Application that is required to be filed prior to or on the Closing Date. To avoid disruption or delay in the processing of the FCC Application, Buyer agrees, as part of the FCC Application, to request that the FCC apply its policy permitting the transfer of control of FCC Licenses in transactions involving multiple stations to proceed, notwithstanding the pendency of one or more Renewal Applications (the “FCC Renewal Policy”). Buyer shall make such representations and agree to such undertakings as are required to be made to invoke the FCC Renewal Policy, including undertakings to assume, as between the parties and the FCC, the position of the applicant before the FCC with respect to any pending Renewal Application and to assume the corresponding regulatory risks relating to any such Renewal Application. To the extent reasonably necessary to facilitate grant of the FCC Application, Buyer shall, or Seller shall cause the Acquired Companies to, as applicable, enter into tolling, assignment and assumption, or similar agreements with the FCC to extend the statute of limitations for the FCC to determine or impose a forfeiture penalty against any of the Stations in connection with (i) any pending complaints that the Stations aired programming that contained obscene, indecent or profane material or (ii) any other enforcement matters against the Stations with respect to which the FCC may permit Buyer or the Acquired Companies to enter into tolling, assignment and assumption, or similar agreements. Seller shall be responsible for payment of any forfeiture penalty or satisfaction of any other sanctions imposed against any of the Stations or Seller or any of its Subsidiaries by the FCC on or prior to the Closing Date. Except as provided onSchedule 2.6, Buyer shall be responsible for payment of any forfeiture penalty or satisfaction of any other sanctions imposed against Seller, any Acquired Company, any of the Stations or Buyer by the FCC after the Closing.

(d) If the Closing shall not have occurred for any reason within the original effective period of the FCC Consent, and neither party shall have terminated underSection12.1, Buyer and Seller shall jointly request an extension period of the FCC Consent. No extension of the FCC Consent shall limit the rights of either party underSection12.1.

(e) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, and in addition to the other covenants set forth in this Agreement, Buyer agrees to take promptly any and all steps necessary to eliminate each and every impediment and obtain all consents under any antitrust or competition Law, rule or regulation (including the HSR Act) or any Communications Law that may be required by the FCC, the FTC, the DOJ, any state Attorney General or any other U.S. federal, state or local governmental authority, or any applicable non-U.S. antitrust or competition governmental authority, in each case having competent jurisdiction, so as to enable the parties to close the transactions contemplated by this Agreement as promptly as practicable, including committing to or effecting, by consent decree, pocket consent decree, hold separate orders, trust or otherwise, such Divestitures as are required in order to obtain the FCC Consent or the HSR Clearance and to avoid the entry of (or to effect the dissolution of or vacate or lift) any order that would otherwise have the effect of preventing or materially delaying the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in thisSection2.6(e), if any of the consents or approvals (or elimination of impediments) contemplated by the preceding sentence have not been obtained (or eliminated), in each case as of the date that is six (6) months following the Execution Date, and if Seller, after consultation with Buyer, reasonably determines in good faith, or, if at any time after the Execution Date, the FCC, the FTC, the DOJ, any state Attorney General or any other U.S. federal, state or local governmental authority, or any applicable non-U.S. antitrust or competition governmental authority, has indicated, that a Divestiture is required to obtain the FCC Consent or the HSR Clearance, or otherwise to remove any impediment or to obtain any required consents under any antitrust or competition Law, rule or regulation or under the Communications Laws in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, then Seller shall have the right to provide written notice of such determination or indication to Buyer (a “Divestiture Notice”). Upon receipt of a Divestiture Notice, Buyer shall promptly (and in all respects prior to the Outside Date) implement or cause to be implemented such Divestiture. Further, and for the avoidance of doubt, Buyer shall take any and all actions necessary in order to ensure that (x) no requirement for any non-action, consent or approval of the FCC, the FTC, the DOJ, any state Attorney General or any other U.S. federal, state or local governmental authority, or any applicable non-U.S. antitrust or competition governmental authority, (y) no decree, judgment, injunction, temporary restraining order or any other order in any suit or proceeding, and (z) no other matter relating to any antitrust or competition Law or any Communications Law would preclude consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement on or before the Outside Date. If the assets to be divested are an Acquired Company or its assets, then Buyer and Seller shall, and Seller shall cause the Acquired Company to, file all requisite filings and notices necessary to obtain FCC Consent and HSR Clearance, if necessary. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, and except with respect to Buyer’s obligations set forth herein to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement prior to the Outside Date, the parties hereto agree and acknowledge that thisSection2.6(e) shall not require Buyer or its Affiliates to take or agree to take any action (including any Divestiture) or agree to or consent to any limitations or restrictions on freedom of action with respect to, or its or their ability to retain, or make changes in, any business, assets, licenses, services, or operations of Buyer or its Affiliates that, individually or in the aggregate, would be reasonably expected to have a material adverse effect on the business, properties, assets, financial condition or results of operations on Seller and its Subsidiaries, or Buyer and Parker Buyer and their respective Subsidiaries, taken as a whole;provided, however, that this sentence shall not apply to any Divestiture of KHAS-TV by Buyer or Parker Buyer.

(f) In addition to, and not in limitation of, any other provision of this Agreement and subject toSection 12.1(d), since Buyer is not qualified under applicable Law to acquire attributable interests in the Stations serving the Panama City, FL and Grand Junction, CO markets (the “Overlap Markets”), then (i) not later than the forty-fifth (45^th) day following the Execution Date (x) Buyer shall enter into an agreement with a third party that is a Buyer Qualified Assignee and qualified under applicable Law to acquire an attributable interest in WMBB(TV) pursuant to which the applicable Subsidiaries, at Buyer’s election, shall transfer either (A) the FCC Licenses for WMBB(TV) and all related assets used or useful in the operation of WMBB(TV) or (B) the equity of Hoak Media of Panama City Licensee, LLC and Hoak Media of Panama City, LLC, in each case of (A) or (B), to such third party contemporaneously with the Closing, and (y) Buyer shall enter into an agreement with a third party that is a Buyer Qualified Assignee and qualified under applicable Law to acquire an attributable interest in KREX-TV, KREG-TV, KGJT-LP, and KREY(TV) (collectively, the “Grand Junction Overlap Stations”) pursuant to which the applicable Subsidiaries shall transfer the FCC Licenses for the Grand Junction Overlap Stations and all related assets used or useful in the operation of the Grand Junction Overlap Stations to such third party contemporaneously with the Closing (the assets described in this clause (i) being the “Overlap Station Assets;” each third party described in this clause (i) being a “Third Party Buyer;” and each transfer described in this clause (i) being a “Third Party Transaction”), (ii) Seller and Third Party Buyer shall (x) jointly file an application or applications with the FCC requesting the grant of its consent to the transfer of control of or the assignment of the licenses of the Stations in the Overlap Markets from Seller to Third Party Buyer (the “Overlap FCC Applications”) and (y) make any required filings with the FTC and the DOJ pursuant to the HSR Act, with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby (including a request for early termination of the waiting period thereunder), in each case, at the same time that the FCC Applications and filing for HSR Clearance for the other Acquired Companies are filed by Buyer and Seller, and (iii) Buyer shall cause such Third Party Buyer to consummate each Third Party Transaction concurrently with the Closing. To the extent reasonably necessary to facilitate grant of the Overlap FCC Applications, Third Party Buyer shall, or Seller shall cause the Acquired Companies to, as applicable, enter into tolling, assignment and assumption, or similar agreements with the FCC to extend the statute of limitations for the FCC to determine or impose a forfeiture penalty against any of the Stations in connection with (i) any pending complaints that the Stations aired programming that contained obscene, indecent or profane material or (ii) any other enforcement matters against the Stations with respect to which the FCC may permit Third Party Buyer or the Acquired Companies to enter into tolling, assignment and assumption, or similar agreements. Upon the first to occur of: (A) Buyer has not entered into an agreement with a Third Party Buyer to purchase a Station in an Overlap Market by the forty-fifth (45^th) day following the Execution Date, (B) any Third Party Transaction agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms or (C) the Buyer and a Third Party Buyer are unable to consummate a Third Party Transaction concurrently with the Closing, then Seller will cause the Acquired Entity relating to such Third Party Transaction to be placed in a divestiture trust by the earlier of (X) the Outside Date and (Y) the date that transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be otherwise ready to be consummated (subject to Buyer otherwise entering into a Third Party Transaction with a Third Party Buyer that will not unnecessarily delay or otherwise impair the receipt of the FCC Consent or the consummation of the transactions hereunder). Buyer and Seller will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the actions described in thisSection 2.6(f) to not unnecessarily delay or otherwise impair the receipt of the FCC Consent or the consummation of the transactions hereunder. Buyer and Seller shall, and Seller shall cause the requisite Acquired Company to, (i) jointly file an application or applications with the FCC requesting the grant of its consent to the transfer of control of such Acquired Company from Buyer and/or Seller to the trustee of the divestiture trust and (ii) make any required filings with the FTC and the DOJ pursuant to the HSR Act, with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby (including a request for early termination of the waiting period thereunder), in each case within 10 days after determining that a divestiture is required pursuant to the foregoing. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, neither the failure to enter into or consummate a Third Party Transaction contemplated by thisSection 2.6 orSection 12.1(d)nor the terms of any such Third Party Transaction shall relieve Buyer of its obligation to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or pay the entire Purchase Price at the Closing, subject to adjustment as provided inSection 12.1(d).

6.3 Consents.Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain (a) any third party consents required under any Material Contract in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (which shall not require any payment to any such third party, other than the payment by Seller of ordinary course processing fees or similar costs) and (b) customary estoppel certificates reasonably acceptable to Buyer under the Real Property Leases listed on Schedule 6.3(b), which shall include each Real Property Lease for a Station’s studio or Tower Lease for a Station’s primary tower or other material tower;provided, however, that the parties acknowledge and agree that such third party consents or estoppel certificates are not conditions to Closing, except for those certain third party consents set forth on Schedule 6.3(the “Required Consents”).

6.4 Employees; Employee Plans.

(a) Schedule 6.4(a)(1) sets forth a list as of the Execution Date showing employee names, positions and status for all employees of the Acquired Companies (the “Station Employees”).

(b) For at least one year following Closing, so long as a Station Employee is employed by Buyer, Buyer shall provide each Station Employee who does not have an employment agreement with the Acquired Companies employee benefits, compensation and severance that are substantially comparable in the aggregate to the employee benefits, compensation and severance provided to similarly situated employees of Buyer (excluding any pension benefit provided to employees of the Buyer and subsidiaries of Buyer), including providing credit for and honoring past accrued but unused time with respect to sick, holiday, personal or vacation leave (to the extent a liability therefor is included in Current Liabilities for purposes of determining the Net Working Capital Amount). To the extent permitted by Law and notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Buyer shall give Station Employees full credit for purposes of eligibility waiting periods and vesting under the employee benefit plans or arrangements or severance practices maintained by the Buyer or its Affiliates (excluding any pension plan or benefit) in which such Station Employees participate for such Station Employees’ service with the Acquired Companies to the same extent such service was credited to such Station Employees prior to Closing for similar purposes;provided, that such credit need not be recognized (x) to the extent that such recognition would result in any duplication of benefits for the same period of service or would require an amendment to any Buyer benefit plan or (y) under any defined benefit plan or other pension plan. In addition, Buyer shall, or shall cause the Acquired Companies to, (i) waive all limitations as to preexisting conditions, exclusions and waiting periods with respect to participation and coverage requirements applicable to the Station Employees and their respective covered dependents under employee benefit plans maintained by Buyer to the extent the Station Employees and their respective covered dependents were participating in the applicable Employee Plan of Seller immediately prior to Closing and (ii) provide each Station Employee and his or her covered dependents with credit for any co-payments and deductibles paid under the applicable Employee Plans in satisfying any applicable deductible or out-of-pocket requirements under such Buyer plan.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 6.4, the parties expressly acknowledge and agree that (i) this Agreement is not intended to create a contract between Buyer, Seller or any of their respective Affiliates on the one hand and any Station Employee on the other hand, and no Station Employee may rely on this Agreement as the basis for any breach of contract claim against Buyer, Seller or any Acquired Company, (ii) nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed or construed to require any Acquired Company to employ any particular Station Employee for any period after the Closing, (iii) nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed or construed to limit the Acquired Companies’ rights to terminate the employment of any Station Employee during any period prior to or after the Closing Date, and (iv) nothing in this Agreement is intended to, or does, constitute the establishment or, or an amendment to, any Employee Plan or any employee benefit plan or arrangement of the Buyer or any of its Affiliates.

(d) Seller shall cause the Acquired Companies to cease to participate as active unrelated employers in the Hoak Media, LLC 401(k) Plan as of the Closing, and shall provide evidence to Buyer that it, or its Affiliates, to the extent applicable, has taken the necessary steps to effect the cessation of such participation without any continuing liability to the Acquired Companies. As soon as practicable following the Closing Date, Buyer shall permit the Station Employees to directly roll over their account balances and outstanding loan balances, if any, under the Hoak Media, LLC 401(k) Plan into a tax-qualified “eligible retirement plan” within the meaning of Section 402(c)(8)(B) of the Code maintained by the Buyer or an Affiliate (“Buyer’s 401(k) Plan”), subject to applicable Law and the terms and conditions of the Hoak Media, LLC 401(k) Plan and the Buyer’s 401(k) Plan, and provided that Seller and its Affiliates take all actions reasonably necessary to effectuate such rollovers.

6.5 Access to and Retention of Records.Subject to Section 11.6, from and after the Closing Date, Buyer shall, or shall cause the Acquired Companies to preserve, in accordance with Buyer’s normal document retention procedures and practices, all books and records of the Acquired Companies and shall provide Seller a reasonable opportunity to access and obtain copies, at Seller’s expense, of any such books and records. In addition to the foregoing, from and after the Closing, Buyer shall afford to Seller, and its counsel, accountants, and other authorized agents and representatives, at Seller’s expense, during normal business hours, reasonable access to the employees, books, records and other data relating to the Business or the Acquired Companies in its possession with respect to the periods prior to the Closing, and the right to make copies and extracts therefrom, to the extent that such access may be reasonably required by Seller (a) to facilitate the investigation, litigation and final disposition of any claims which may have been or may be made against Seller, (b) for the preparation of Tax Returns and audits and (c) for any other reasonable and proper business purpose, provided in each case that such access does not unreasonably disrupt the Business or the business and operations of Buyer or the Acquired Companies.

6.6 Cooperation.Buyer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with Seller to release any Liens applicable to the Acquired Companies. Buyer acknowledges that Seller may use a portion of the proceeds from the Purchase Price for the repayment of Indebtedness associated with any such Liens. Seller shall provide Buyer and the Acquired Companies such reasonable assistance and cooperation as may be requested by Buyer from time to time after the Closing Date to reasonably facilitate the transition of the business and operations of the Acquired Companies and the Business.

6.7 Interim Reports.Within twenty (20) days after the end of each calendar month during the period from the Balance Sheet Date through the Closing, Seller shall provide to Buyer, with respect to the Seller, Acquired Companies, the Business and the Stations, the unaudited balance sheet as of the end of such month, and the related combined unaudited statement of operations for such month, of Seller, the Acquired Companies, the Business and the Stations. Such reports shall be prepared on the same basis as the Financial Statements. Seller shall also provide to Buyer weekly pacing reports for each of the Stations promptly following the end of each week during the period from the Execution Date through the Closing. Seller shall also provide to Buyer monthly reports of actual capital expenditures for such month and year-to-date.

The Title Commitments will evidence a commitment to issue an ALTA title insurance policy insuring good, marketable and indefeasible fee simple (or leasehold, if applicable) title to each parcel of the Real Property contemplated above for such amount as Buyer directs. Seller shall reasonably cooperate with Buyer in obtaining such Title Commitments and Surveys, provided that neither Seller nor any Acquired Company shall be required to incur any cost, expense or other liability in connection therewith. If the Title Commitments or Surveys reveal any Lien on the title other than Permitted Liens, Buyer shall notify Seller in writing of such objectionable matter as soon as Buyer becomes aware that such matter is not a Permitted Lien, and Seller agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to remove such objectionable matter as required pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

(b) Buyer may elect, at its own expense, to order a Phase I environmental site assessment of any parcel of Real Property to be performed by a nationally recognized environmental firm (the “Environmental Firm”) on a date reasonably acceptable to Seller and without unreasonably interfering with the operation of the Business, all of which Phase I environmental site assessments must be completed within sixty (60) days following the Execution Date. Following their completion, Buyer will promptly deliver copies of such Phase I environmental site assessments to Seller. Seller shall comply with any reasonable request for information (to the extent such information is in Seller’s possession and not constituting attorney-client privileged communications) made by Buyer or the Environmental Firm in connection with any such Phase I environmental site assessment and shall afford Buyer and the Environmental Firm access to all areas of the applicable parcel(s) of Real Property (but, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, only to the extent Seller or its applicable Subsidiary is not prohibited under the terms of any Real Property Lease from providing such access), at reasonable times and in a reasonable manner in connection with any such investigation. Buyer hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Seller for any damages caused by Buyer’s or the Environmental Firm’s activities during performance of the Phase I environmental site assessments pursuant to thisSection 6.9(b), other than liabilities relating to any breach by Seller of its representations and warranties inSection 3.9 (Environmental). Prior to the Closing, Buyer must obtain Seller’s prior written consent to conduct any other environmental investigation, sampling, testing or assessment of any kind at any Real Property or adjacent property, which consent may be withheld or conditioned in Seller’s sole discretion.

6.10 No Negotiation.Until the earlier of the Closing or such time as this Agreement shall be terminated pursuant to Section 12.1, and except for any Divestitures or releases of Acquired Companies as required pursuant toSection 2.6(e) orSection 12.1(d), Seller, the Acquired Companies and their respective directors, officers, investment bankers and agents shall cease any discussions or negotiations with, and shall not, directly or indirectly, solicit, initiate, encourage or entertain any inquiries or proposals from, discuss or negotiate with, provide any nonpublic information to or consider the merits of any inquiries or proposals from any Person (other than Buyer) relating to any business combination transaction involving the Equity Interests, the assets of the Acquired Companies or the Stations (other than in the ordinary course of business or as provided by this Agreement).

Subject toSection 6.11(d), Buyer shall not make any amendment or modification to the Organizational Documents of the Acquired Companies that would be adverse to any current or former manager, director or officer of the Acquired Companies, or enter into any agreement that would have the effect of amending or modifying the Organizational Documents of the Acquired Companies in any manner that would adversely affect any current or former director or officer of the Acquired Companies.

(b) For the six (6) year period commencing on the Closing Date, (i) Buyer shall maintain in effect the Acquired Companies’ current directors’ and officers’ liability insurance covering acts or omissions occurring prior to the Closing Date with respect to those persons who are currently covered by the Acquired Companies’ directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy on terms with respect to such coverage and amount no less favorable to the Acquired Companies’ managers, directors and officers currently covered by such insurance than those of such policy in effect on the Execution Date and (ii) Buyer shall, or shall cause the Acquired Companies to, cause coverage to be extended under the Acquired Companies’ current directors’ and officers’ liability insurance by obtaining a six-year “tail” policy on terms and conditions no less advantageous than the Acquired Companies’ existing directors’ and officers’ liability insurance in effect on the Execution Date;provided, however, that Buyer may substitute therefor policies of a reputable insurance company the terms of which, including coverage and amount, are no less favorable to such directors and officers, in the aggregate, than the insurance coverage otherwise required under thisSection 6.11.

(c) The provisions of thisSection 6.11 are (i) intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, each individual who on or prior to the Closing Date was a director, officer or employee of the Acquired Companies’ (each, an “Indemnitee”), his or her heirs and his or her representatives, it being expressly agreed that such Persons shall be third party beneficiaries of thisSection 6.11, and (ii) in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other right to indemnification or contribution that any such Indemnitee may have under this Agreement, by contract or otherwise.

(d) The obligations of Buyer under thisSection 6.11 shall not be terminated or modified in such a manner as to adversely affect any Indemnitee to whom thisSection 6.11 applies without the consent of the affected Indemnitee (it being expressly agreed that the Indemnitees to whom thisSection 6.11 applies shall be third party beneficiaries of thisSection 6.11, and each Indemnitee may specifically enforce the terms of thisSection 6.11).

(e) Seller shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the officers, managers and directors of the Acquired Companies, who are not Station Employees, to execute resignations at or prior to the Closing, to be effective as of the Closing.

11.2 Straddle Period Allocation.In the case of any taxable period that includes (but does, not end on) the Closing Date (a “Straddle Period”), the amount of any Taxes (other than Property Taxes) and Tax refunds (other than Property Tax refunds) of the Acquired Companies for the portion of the Straddle Period that relates to the Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be determined based on an interim closing of the books as of and including the Closing Date (with exemptions, allowances or deductions that are calculated on an annual basis (including depreciation and amortization deductions) apportioned between the Pre-Closing Tax Period and the portion of such Straddle Period after the Pre-Closing Tax Period based on the number of days in each such period), and the amount of any real property, personal property, ad valorem or similar Taxes of the Acquired Companies (“Property Taxes”) and any Property Tax refunds for the portion of the Straddle Period that relates to the Pre-Closing Tax Period shall be deemed to be the amount of such Property Taxes or Property Tax refunds for the entire Straddle Period,multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the Straddle Period through and including the Closing Date, and the denominator of which is the number of days in such Straddle Period.

11.3 Tax Returns.Except as otherwise provided in Section11.7:

(a) Seller shall be responsible for the preparation and filing of all Tax Returns for Seller or an Acquired Company for all Pre-Closing Tax Periods which are due after the Closing Date, including the unitary and combined Tax Returns for Seller that include the operations of Acquired Companies for any period ending on or before the Closing Date (each, a “Pre-Closing Tax Return”). Seller will make all payments required with respect to any such Tax Return. Seller shall provide a copy of each such Pre-Closing Tax Return of the Acquired Companies to Buyer.

(b) Buyer shall prepare and timely file (taking into account all valid extensions), or shall cause to be prepared and timely filed (taking into account all valid extensions), all Tax Returns of the Acquired Companies covering a Straddle Period (each, a“Straddle Tax Return”), and each such Straddle Tax Return shall be prepared in a manner consistent with past custom and practice except as otherwise required by applicable Law or fact. Buyer shall provide a copy of each such Straddle Tax Return, together with all supporting documentation and workpapers, to Seller for Seller’s review and reasonable comment at least fifteen (15) days prior to the due date (taking into account all valid extensions) for filing such Straddle Tax Return, and Buyer shall consider in good faith any reasonable comments provided in writing by Seller to Buyer at least five (5) days prior to the due date (taking into account all valid extensions) for filing such Straddle Tax Return; provided, however, that in the case of a Straddle Tax Return for which the filing deadline (including extensions) is within thirty (30) days after the Closing Date, Buyer shall in good faith attempt (but shall not have any obligation) to provide a copy of such Straddle Tax Return to Seller for Seller’s review. Subject to the indemnification obligations of Seller pursuant to Section 11.1(a), the Acquired Companies, as applicable, shall be responsible for timely paying (taking into account all valid extensions) all Taxes reflected on a Straddle Tax Return to the applicable Taxing Authority.

(c) To the extent Taxes reflected on a Pre-Closing Tax Return or Straddle Tax Return are the obligation of Seller pursuant to Section 11.1(a), Seller will pay to Buyer the amount of Taxes reflected on such Pre-Closing Tax Return or Straddle Tax Return, as applicable, that are the obligation of Seller pursuant to Section 11.1(a)the later of (i) five (5) days after a written request by Buyer, or (ii) three (3) days before the due date (including extensions) of such Taxes.

(d) Buyer shall provide Seller with executed powers of attorney on IRS Form 2848 and appropriate powers of attorney for state and local tax filing authorizing a designated representative of Seller to sign and file the Pre-Closing Tax Returns.

11.4 Post-Closing Actions.With respect to Taxes other than Income Taxes, Buyer shall not, and shall not cause or permit any of its Affiliates (including following the Closing, for the avoidance of doubt, the Acquired Companies) to (a) except as otherwise required by Law, amend or re-file any Tax Return of the Acquired Companies that covers a Pre-Closing Tax Period or any Tax Return that was prepared and filed pursuant toSection 11.3 or file any Tax Return of the Acquired Companies with an initial due date before the Closing Date, (b) take any action relating to Taxes or that could create a Tax liability on the Closing Date (other than as expressly contemplated by this Agreement) that is outside the ordinary course of business, (c) make any Tax election that has retroactive effect to any Pre-Closing Tax Period, (d) voluntarily initiate any contact with any Taxing Authority with respect to any Taxes or Tax Returns of the Acquired Companies that were originally due before the Closing Date or (e) carryback any net operating losses to a Pre-Closing Tax Period. Seller shall be entitled to prepare and file amended Tax Returns for the Acquired Companies relating to Pre-Closing Tax Periods, including seeking Tax refunds, and Buyer shall fully cooperate with Seller in filing such amended Tax Returns and, where required, have an appropriate officer sign such amended Tax Returns.

11.5 Refunds.The amount of any Tax refund (whether in cash or as a credit against or offset to any Tax) in respect of any Tax of the Acquired Companies attributable to any Pre-Closing Tax Period received (in the case of a refund) or utilized (in the case of a credit against or offset to any Tax) by Buyer, the Acquired Companies or any of their respective Affiliates shall be for the account of Seller, to the extent such refund exceeds the amount of the refund of such Taxes reflected as an asset on the books of the Acquired Companies, and the recipient thereof shall pay such amount (including any interest received thereon) over to Seller within ten (10) days after any such refund is received, credited or applied as an offset, as the case may be. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event that a Tax refund to which Seller is entitled under this Section 11.5 is subsequently determined by any Governmental Authority (including any taxing authority) to be less than the amount paid by Buyer to Seller, Seller shall promptly return any such disallowed amounts (plus any interest in respect of such disallowed refunds owed to a Governmental Authority (including any taxing authority)) to Buyer. Buyer shall elect not to carry any loss, credit or other Tax benefit item from a taxable period (or portion thereof) that begins after the Closing Date back to a Pre-Closing Tax Period.

11.6 Cooperation.Each of Buyer and Seller, and each of their respective Affiliates, shall cooperate fully, as and to the extent reasonably requested by the other Party, in connection with the filing of Tax Returns of or with respect to the Acquired Companies and/or during the course of any audit, litigation or other proceeding with respect to Taxes of or attributable to the Acquired Companies. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the other Party’s request) the provision of records and information that are reasonably relevant to any such audit, litigation or other proceeding and making employees available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder. Each of Seller and Buyer agrees, and following the Closing, Buyer agrees to cause the Acquired Companies, (i) to retain all books and records with respect to Tax matters pertaining to the Acquired Companies relating to any taxable period beginning on or before the Closing Date until the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations (and, to the extent notified by Buyer, any extensions thereof) of the respective taxable periods; shall provide copies of the foregoing to Buyer upon Buyer’s request; and shall abide by all record retention agreements entered into with any Taxing Authority, and (ii) to give the other Party (and following the Closing, Buyer agrees to cause the Acquired Companies to give Seller) reasonable written notice prior to transferring, destroying or discarding any such books and records and, on receipt of such notice, if the other Party so requests, Seller or Buyer shall, as applicable, allow the other Party to take possession of such books and records. Buyer and Seller agree that Seller shall be entitled to retain copies of the books and records of the Acquired Companies which they believe are appropriate for the filing of Tax Returns as described in this Article 11.Buyer and Seller further agree, upon request, to use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any certificate or other document from any Governmental Authority or any other Person as may be necessary to mitigate, reduce or eliminate any Tax that could be imposed (including with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby).

11.7 Transfer Taxes.Buyer and Seller shall each be responsible for the payment of fifty percent (50%) of all governmental Taxes, fees and charges applicable to the transfer of the Equity Interests under this Agreement (including sales, use and real property transfer taxes, stamp and stock transfer taxes and the costs of recording or filing all applicable conveyance instruments) (collectively, “Transfer Taxes”).At Buyer’s expense, Seller will cooperate in Buyer’s preparation, execution and filing of all Tax Returns regarding Transfer Taxes and in seeking or perfecting any available exemption from Transfer Taxes.

11.8 Purchase Price Allocation.Buyer and Seller shall in good faith use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to agree within sixty (60) days after the Closing Date regarding an allocation of the Purchase Price payable for the Acquired Companies (and any liabilities assumed hereunder and other relevant items) among the assets of the Acquired Companies for Tax reporting purposes based upon a reasonable determination of the respective fair market values of those assets in accordance with the requirements of the Code and the applicable Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder. To the extent Buyer and the Seller so agree, then they shall complete and timely file any necessary Tax forms, and their respective income Tax Returns, in accordance with such allocation. If Buyer and Seller are unable to agree on such allocation within such sixty (60) day period, the allocation shall be referred to Bond & Pecaro or another appraisal or accounting firm mutually selected by Buyer and Seller, which will determine only the matters in dispute. Buyer and Seller shall complete and timely file any necessary Tax forms, and their respective income Tax Returns, in accordance with the determinations of such firm.

11.9 Tax Treatment. Buyer and Seller agree that the purchase of the Equity Interests pursuant to this Agreement shall, to extent permitted under applicable Law, be characterized for income Tax purposes as an acquisition by Buyer of the assets of the Acquired Companies (except with respect to Noe Corp., L.L.C).

11.10 Tax Treatment of Indemnity Payments.Each of Buyer and Seller agree that any indemnification payments made under this Agreement shall be treated as Purchase Price adjustments for U.S. federal income tax purposes (and state, local, and non-U.S. Tax purposes where applicable) to the extent permitted by applicable Law.

11.11 Wage Reporting. Buyer and Seller agree to utilize, or cause their respective Affiliates to utilize, the standard procedure set forth in Rev. Proc. 2004-53 with respect to wage reporting.

11.12 Tax Controversies.

(a) If, subsequent to the Closing, either Buyer or Seller receives notice of an inquiry, claim, assessment, audit or similar event by any Taxing Authority that, if successful, could reasonably be expected to result in an indemnity payment hereunder, or any other claim related to a Pre-Closing Tax Period or a Straddle Period of an Acquired Company which could affect the Tax attributes or Tax liabilities of either an Acquired Company or Buyer for any Post-Closing Tax Period (such inquiry, claim, assessment, audit or similar event or other claim, a “Tax Matter”), then as soon as reasonably practicable after receipt of such notice, Buyer or Seller, as the case may be, shall promptly give written notice to the other party of any such Tax Matter; provided, however, that failure of any party to give such notice shall not relieve the other party of any liability hereunder except to the extent, if any, that the rights of such other party with respect to such Tax Matter are materially actually prejudiced thereby.

(b) Seller shall have the right to control the conduct and resolution of any Tax Matter relating solely to a Pre-Closing Tax Period; provided, however, that (i) Buyer shall be entitled to participate, at the Buyer’s expense, in the conduct and resolution of such Tax Matter using counsel of its choice, (ii) Seller shall keep Buyer informed on a timely basis of all material developments with respect to such Tax Matter that could reasonably be expected to materially prejudice Buyer and (iii) Seller shall not resolve any such Tax Matter that could reasonably be expected to materially prejudice Buyer without the Buyer’s written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.

(c) Buyer shall have the right to control the conduct and resolution of any Tax Matter relating to a Straddle Period; provided, however, that (i) Seller shall be entitled, at the Seller’s expense, to participate in the conduct and resolution of such Tax Matter using counsel of its choice, (ii) Buyer shall keep Seller informed on a timely basis of all material developments with respect to such Tax Matter that could reasonably be expected to materially prejudice Seller and (iii) Buyer shall not resolve any such Tax Matter that could reasonably be expected to materially prejudice Seller without Seller’s written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.

11.13 Conflict.In the event of conflict between any of the provisions of this Article 11and any other provision of this Agreement, the provisions of this Article 11 shall control.

Article 12
TERMINATION AND REMEDIES

12.1 Termination.Subject to Section 12.3, this Agreement may be terminated prior to Closing as follows:

(a) by mutual written agreement of Buyer and Seller;

(b) by written notice from Buyer to Seller if (i) Buyer is not in material breach of its obligations under this Agreement, (ii) Seller breaches its representations or warranties, or defaults in the performance of its covenants, contained in this Agreement or and (iii) all such breaches and defaults of Seller that are not cured within the Cure Period would prevent the conditions to the obligations of Buyer set forth in Section 8.1 from being satisfied;

(c) by written notice from Seller to Buyer if (i) Seller is not in material breach of its obligations under this Agreement, (ii) Buyer breaches its representations or warranties, or defaults in the performance of its covenants, contained in this Agreement and (iii) all such Buyer breaches and defaults that are not cured within the Cure Period would prevent the conditions to the obligations of Seller set forth in Section 7.1 from being satisfied; provided, however, that no Cure Period shall apply to Buyer’s obligation to pay the Purchase Price at the Closing; or

(d) by written notice from Buyer to Seller, or from Seller to Buyer, if the Closing does not occur by the twelve (12) month anniversary of the Execution Date (such date, the “Outside Date”), unless the Closing has not occurred by such date as a result of a material breach of this Agreement by the party providing such notice of termination; provided, however, that if, as of the Outside Date, all conditions to this Agreement have been satisfied or waived (other than those that are to be satisfied by action taken at the Closing) other than the condition that the FCC Consent shall have become a Final Order or the HSR Clearance shall have been obtained (as set forth inSections 7.3, 7.4, 8.3 and8.4), then either Buyer or Seller may, by written notice to the other, elect to extend the Outside Date by a period of up to sixty (60) days so as to allow for such Government Consents to be obtained;provided, that the party so extending shall have a good faith reasonable belief that such Government Consents will be obtained within such extension period; andprovided, further, that if, as of the Outside Date, the parties are required to consummate the Closing pursuant toSection 2.5(a) but for the operation of the second proviso inSection 2.5(a) (i.e., the Marketing Period has not ended), the Outside Date shall automatically be extended to one day after the new date on which the parties are required to consummate the Closing pursuant to such proviso; andprovided, further, that in the event that (x) at the Outside Date as so extended, if applicable, all such Government Consents shall not have been obtained or (y) any Governmental Entity shall have advised either Seller or Buyer prior to the Outside Date that a Government Consent will not be obtained (a “Government Advice”) or (z) the Third Party Transactions or transfer to a divestiture trust for any reason shall not have closed concurrently with the Closing and the Government Consents will not allow the parties to consummate the Closing as a result thereof (the“Failed Third Party Closing”), Seller shall have the right by written notice to Buyer (the “Exclusion Notice”) on or before such Outside Date, or within 15 business days after receipt of such Government Advice, to exclude from the Acquired Companies any entity or assets which caused such Government Consents not to be obtained or any entity or assets that were subject to the Failed Third Party Closing which caused the parties not to be able to consummate the Closing), such Acquired Companies or assets shall revert to Seller on the Closing Date, the Purchase Price shall be reduced as provided inSchedule 12.1(d) and the Parties shall take all actions necessary or appropriate to amend any Government Consent application to reflect such exclusions and obtain the Government Consents, if necessary, and the Outside Date shall be extended for a reasonable period of time in order to obtain the Government Consents, not to exceed 30 days after the date of such Exclusion Notice;provided, however,that notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to any exclusion of the Grand Junction Overlap Stations as provided above or the exclusion of the Assigned Station as provided inSection 12.1(e) of the Other Station Agreement, each of the Assigned Station under the Other Station Agreement and the Grand Junction Overlap Stations shall also be excluded from the Closing and all such Stations shall revert to Seller on the Closing Date. If Seller delivers an Exclusion Notice, upon such reversion and price adjustment, neither Seller nor Buyer shall have any further responsibility or liability to the other in respect of such reverted entities or assets or such party’s obligations hereunder with respect thereto (including, for example, if Seller sells any of such entities or assets for more or less than the price adjustment, Buyer shall not be entitled to any payment from Seller of any excess proceeds, and Seller shall not be entitled to any payment from Buyer of any proceeds shortfall).

12.2 Cure Period.Each party shall give the other party prompt written notice upon learning of any breach or default by the other party under this Agreement, and such notice shall include a description of the breach. The term “Cure Period” as used herein means a period commencing on the date Buyer or Seller receive from the other written notice of breach or default hereunder and continuing until five (5) Business Days after the day otherwise scheduled for the Closing.

12.3 Effect of Termination.Subject to Section 12.4, in the event that this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 12.1, this Agreement shall become void and of no effect and all rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall terminate without liability on the part of any party hereunder except as set forth inSection 12.4; provided however that if a termination shall have resulted from a material breach or fraud of a party (including Buyer’s failure to consummate the Closing when required bySection 2.5), the termination of this Agreement shall not relieve such breaching party of any liability for such material breach or fraud under this Agreement that occurred prior to the date of termination, andprovided further that notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Article 1 (Definitions; Interpretation), Section 6.1(Confidentiality), this Section 12.3,and Article 13 (Miscellaneous) shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

12.4 Specific Performance.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 nonperformance 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), 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 and the Overlap 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 the party seeking specific performance shall be entitled to enforce specifically (a) a party’s obligations under Section 2.6 and (b) a party’s obligation to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including the obligation to consummate the Closing and pay the Purchase Price), if the conditions set forth inArticle 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, without the requirement of the prevailing party to post a bond. In addition to the foregoing, the prevailing party under this Agreement or any Ancillary Document shall be entitled to prompt payment on demand from the other party of the reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs incurred by the prevailing party.
