 9 








 
renew for additional one (1)-year terms unless either WIN or Publisher provides written termination notice to the other Party at least twelve
(12) months prior to the end of the then-applicable term. For the avoidance of doubt, Publisher shall be entitled under this Agreement to all revenues for Publisher’s Directory Products accruing through the end of the last publishing cycle

 ARTICLE IV 
 RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF PUBLISHER 
 Section 4.1 Publishing Obligation. 
 (a) Publisher will, at no charge to WIN, its Affiliates or their Subscribers:
(1) Publish Primary Directories covering, in the aggregate, the Service Areas in the Publisher Region; (2) Publish Primary Listings in the White Pages (unless the applicable Subscriber has indicated to Publisher or WIN (or its Affiliates)
that it does not want such Primary Listing to be Published); (3) Publish a Courtesy Classified Listing in the applicable Yellow Pages for each of WIN’s (or its Affiliates’) business Subscribers (unless such Subscriber has indicated to
Publisher or WIN (or its Affiliates) that it does not want such Courtesy Classified Listing to be Published); (4) as appropriate, co-mingle in such Primary Directories on a non-discriminatory basis WIN’s Subscriber List Information with
subscriber list information received from other CLECs, LECs or Resellers with respect to the applicable Service Area(s); and (5) comply with any and all Subscriber-requested restrictions that are designated in the Subscriber List Information
and are consistent with Publisher’s reasonable policies, as may be in effect from time to time. 
 (b) Publisher acknowledges that the
Publishing Obligation is required by and subject to certain (1) tariffs, (2) laws, rules, regulations and orders of certain Governmental Entities and (3) interconnection agreements with CLECs, LECs and Resellers (collectively,
“Legal Requirements”). In discharging its obligations under this Agreement, Publisher, subject to Article IX, (i) will use commercially reasonable efforts not to take any action that will cause WIN (or its Affiliates) or
Publisher to be in violation of any Legal Requirement, whether in effect now or in the future, and (ii) will treat all Subscribers and Subscriber List Information (regardless of the carrier of such Subscribers) in a non-discriminatory manner
(for the avoidance of doubt, subject to Subscriber requests that are not inconsistent with Legal Requirements). 
 (c) Without limiting the
provisions of Section 4.1(b), Publisher will ensure that (1) the appearance (including font and size) and integration of all Subscriber List Information occurs in a non-discriminatory manner, (2) non-WIN subscriber list information is
included in the Primary Directories using substantially the same methods and procedures, and under substantially the same terms and conditions, as those with respect to WIN Subscriber List Information, and (3) non-WIN subscriber list
information is published with substantially the same accuracy and reliability as WIN Subscriber List Information to the extent such non-WIN subscriber list information is received by Publisher with a level of accuracy and reliability consistent with
the WIN Subscriber List Information. 
 (d) WIN will not (and shall cause its Affiliates not to) propose, solicit or otherwise encourage any
change in any Legal Requirement or any new or additional Legal 

  

 10 








 
Requirement, in each such case by any Governmental Entity, in the Publisher Region that would reasonably be expected to increase materially the cost of
fulfilling the Publishing Obligation (an “Additional Legal Requirement”). If any applicable Governmental Entity proposes any Additional Legal Requirement in the Publisher Region, WIN will, in good faith and using commercially
reasonable efforts, object to and attempt to prevent the implementation of any such proposal and will involve and solicit advice from Publisher regarding how to respond to any such proposal. To the extent permitted by applicable Law or Legal
Requirement, WIN will promptly update Publisher regarding any Additional Legal Requirement and will provide Publisher with prompt notice of any Governmental Entity’s determination that there is a problem with the manner in which Publisher is
fulfilling the Publishing Obligation. 
 (e) WIN will not (and will cause its Affiliates not to) (i) modify or amend its tariffs
(except as required pursuant to applicable Law), or (ii) change in any material respect the nature or scope of the directory publishing obligations under interconnection agreements with CLECs, LECs and Resellers, in either case in the Publisher
Region, that would reasonably be expected to increase materially the cost of fulfilling the Publishing Obligation. 
 Section 4.2
Secondary Directories. Publisher will, at no charge to WIN, its Affiliates or their Subscribers, except where, and for so long as, Publisher has reasonably determined that it is not commercially viable to do so, Publish: (i) printed mini
Yellow Pages and White Pages Secondary Directories covering those Service Areas listed in Exhibit D attached hereto, (ii) Internet-based Secondary Directories, utilizing one (1) or more Domain Names, covering each Service Area within the
Publisher Region, which Secondary Directories shall include substantially all elements of the Primary Directory for each such Service Area in a look and feel (i.e., PDF or similar read-only) format, and (iii) Internet-based Secondary
Directories, utilizing one (1) or more Domain Names, covering those Service Areas listed in Exhibit E attached hereto, which Secondary Directories shall include substantially all elements of the Primary Directory for each such Service Areas in
a search engine format. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Publisher may, at any time stop to Publish any Secondary Directory referred to in clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) above or alter the number, medium and/or type of any such Secondary
Directory, in each case to the extent it reasonably determines that it is not commercially viable to Publish such Secondary Directory or to do so in its then current number, medium or type. In addition, Publisher shall have the right, but not the
obligation, to Publish Secondary Directories (including one (1) or more Internet-based Secondary Directories) covering any or all of the other Service Areas in the Publisher Region. Publisher will, to the extent consistent with its reasonable
business judgment, include WIN’s and its Affiliates’ Subscriber List Information and permit their Subscribers to advertise in any Secondary Directories, including any foreign language directories and Internet-based Secondary Directories,
that Publisher Publishes upon the terms set forth in this Agreement. 
  

 11 








 Section 4.3 Premium Listings. 
 (a) Publisher will, at no additional charge to WIN, its Affiliates or their Subscribers (except as provided below), Publish in each Primary Directory
and each Secondary Directory the types of Premium Listings listed on Exhibit F, which are the Premium Listings being offered by WIN and its Affiliates to Subscribers in the Service Areas as of the Effective Date. Publisher’s obligation
to provide such Premium Listings at no additional charge will be conditioned upon WIN’s offering of such Premium Listings to its Subscribers in a manner that is consistent with its past practices as in effect on the Effective Date or as
otherwise agreed by the Parties. 
 (b) If (i) there is a material incremental increase in Publisher’s costs to fulfill the
Publishing Obligation directly resulting from an increase in the number of Persons for whom Publisher is obligated to provide Premium Listings in Primary Directories at no charge pursuant to clause (a) above, and (ii) such increase is in
excess of the growth of basic Subscriber listings in the applicable Primary Directory (i.e., is unrelated to population growth in the relevant geographic area) (the Premium Listings in excess of such growth of basic Subscriber listings,
“Excess Premium Listings”), then WIN will reimburse Publisher for its direct costs of Publishing the Excess Premium Listings. 
 (c) Within sixty (60) days after each anniversary of the Effective Date, Publisher may provide WIN with a written statement seeking reimbursement with respect to Excess Premium Listings (a “Premium Listings Reimbursement
Statement”). Each Premium Listings Reimbursement Statement will specify in reasonable detail the Excess Premium Listings in the prior twelve (12)-month period and Publisher’s itemized direct costs relating thereto. Within sixty
(60) days of WIN’s receipt of such Excess Premium Listings Reimbursement Statement, WIN may either (i) pay the reimbursement amount identified therein, or (ii) provide Publisher with written notice stating its dispute with
Publisher’s assertion that Excess Premium Listings exist and/or Publisher’s statement of its direct costs with respect thereto and setting forth in reasonable detail the basis therefor (a “Premium Listings Dispute
Notice”). During such sixty (60)-day period, Publisher will provide WIN with any additional information it reasonably requests to assess such Premium Listings Reimbursement Statement, including access to Publisher’s auditors and their
work papers. 
 (d) Prior to pursuing (but otherwise without limiting) any other rights or remedies that Publisher may have relating to
Publisher’s right to reimbursement for costs detailed in a Premium Listings Reimbursement Statement as disputed in a Premium Listings Dispute Notice, the Parties will attempt in good faith to resolve any such dispute set forth in the Premium
Listings Dispute Notice by referring the dispute to a senior executive officer of each of WIN and Publisher for their good faith discussion and negotiation over a period of not less than ten (10) business days from the date of the submission to
such officers of the dispute. If such officers cannot resolve such dispute within such period, then the Parties may resolve the dispute in accordance with Section 14.5 hereof. 
 (e) All other types of Premium Listings offered by WIN or its Affiliates to Subscribers will be Published by Publisher in accordance with
then-prevailing policies and pricing, as both may be reasonably established by Publisher from time to time. 
 Section 4.4 No-Charge
Advertising. In addition to any rights of WIN to no-charge placement of its Licensed Marks on the front cover, spine and headers of each Primary Directory and each printed Secondary Directory pursuant to Article XI, as well as in comparable
prominent locations in any electronic or digital Secondary Directory (including any 

  

 12 








 
Internet-based Secondary Directory), (i) a one (1) page letter from the area manager of WIN shall be included in each Primary Directory or printed
Secondary Directory at no charge provided that such letter does not infringe on Publisher’s intellectual property rights or contain any defamatory content regarding Publisher or disparage Publisher in any way, and (ii) WIN’s local
Primary Listings (including CLECs but not including Premium Listings or listings to meet extended area service requirements) shall appear in the White Pages of any Primary Directory, or printed Secondary Directory in which White Pages listings
appear, at no charge. 
 Section 4.5 Option on Additional Premium Advertising. In addition to any advertising available to WIN at
no charge pursuant to Section 4.4, WIN and its Affiliates will have a first option from the Effective Date until the date five (5) years after the Effective Date with respect to the purchase of any Premium Advertising Products offered in
each Primary Directory and Secondary Directory as contemplated by the provisions of this Section 4.5 (the “First Option”). Within thirty (30) days after the Effective Date and on or about the first day of each calendar month
thereafter, Publisher will provide WIN a notice (the “Premium Advertising Product Notice”) that lists each Primary Directory and Secondary Directory that is scheduled to publish during the next succeeding month (e.g., the Premium
Advertising Product Notice delivered in October 2007 will list each Primary Directory and Secondary Directory that is scheduled to publish during November 2007). Each Premium Advertising Product Notice shall: (i) specify those Premium
Advertising Products available for purchase by WIN (“Available Products”); (ii) the pricing for such products consistent with Section 4.6(a) of this Agreement; and (iii) the scheduled publication date for each Primary
Directory and Secondary Directory described in such Premium Advertising Product Notice. WIN may exercise the First Option with respect to the next succeeding edition of any Directory Product covered by a Premium Advertising Product Notice by
providing Publisher with a notice of exercise within ninety (90) days after the publication date of the then-current version of such Directory Product (e.g., if a Premium Advertising Product Notice describes the 2007 edition of Directory
Product with a publication date of June 1, 2007, then the First Option with respect to the 2008 edition of such Directory Product will expire on August 30, 2007). This notice of exercise must specify the Premium Advertising Product(s) for
which the First Option is being exercised, and must specify the Available Product(s) to which it relates. If WIN or any of its Affiliates exercises the First Option with respect to Available Products, then WIN or such Affiliates shall be required to
purchase those Available Products on the terms specified by Publisher in the applicable Premium Advertising Product Notice. If WIN or such Affiliate does not exercise the First Option with respect to any Available Product within such ninety (90)-day
period, the First Option shall expire, and Publisher shall be permitted to sell the Premium Advertising Products for the applicable Directory Product to third parties as well as WIN, subject to WIN’s rights under Section 11.2. Any Premium
Advertising Products purchased by WIN or its Affiliates, whether or not made pursuant to an exercise of the First Option, will be subject to the pricing provisions set forth in Section 4.6(a) of this Agreement. WIN and its Affiliates will pay
Publisher for any Premium Advertising Products purchased within thirty (30) days of receipt of an invoice from Publisher. 
 Section 4.6 Access and Pricing of Advertising; Advertising Commitment. 
 (a) From the Effective Date until the date
five (5) years after the Effective Date, Publisher will provide WIN and its Affiliates access to and pricing for all advertising in Primary Directories and Secondary Directories on a most-favored-customer basis for similarly 

  

 13 








 
situated customers that are purchasing equivalent volumes and types of advertising, including products that are subject to the First Option pursuant to
Section 4.5 of this Agreement, except that such most-favored-customer terms for such advertising products will not be available to WIN or its Affiliates during the thirty (30) days prior to the Applicable Business Office Close Date of a
particular Primary Directory or printed Secondary Directory. From and after the date five (5) years after the Effective Date, Publisher will provide WIN and its Affiliates access to and pricing for all advertising in Primary Directories and
Secondary Directories on a nondiscriminatory and arms-length basis. 
 (b) Subject to
the terms and conditions of this Section 4.6, from the Effective Date until the date five (5) years after the Effective Date, WIN will (or will cause its Affiliates to) purchase advertising in Publisher’s Directory Products in an
aggregate amount per calendar year of not less than $1,400,000, such amount to be prorated in the first calendar year of this Agreement and the calendar year in which the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Effective Date occurs in each case to reflect the number of days in such calendar year during which this Section 4.6(d) applies (the amount for each calendar year being the
“Annual Advertising Commitment”). 
 (c) WIN will receive credit toward satisfaction of the Annual Advertising Commitment
for all payments made to Publisher in the relevant calendar year by WIN and its Affiliates for all advertisements (including, for these purposes, any premium telephone company information pages under Section 4.7(b)) in or with respect to any
Directory Product and for any paid participation in promotions or programs of Publisher regardless of the date of the publication or the life of the publication. 
 (d) WIN shall pay (or shall cause its Affiliates to pay) Publisher for all advertising purchased during any twelve (12)-month period during which the Annual Advertising Commitment applies within thirty (30) days
of receipt of the invoice for such period. Within sixty (60) days following the end of each calendar year during which the Annual Advertising Commitment applies, Publisher will deliver to WIN a summary statement that will include, in reasonable
detail, the aggregate payments made by WIN and its Affiliates combined in respect of advertising in Publisher’s Directory Products in such calendar year (an “Annual Statement”). If the aggregate payments made by WIN and its
Affiliates combined in respect of advertising in Publisher’s Directory Products in such calendar year are less than the Annual Advertising Commitment for such year, such shortfall will be referred to as a “Deficit”. The Deficit
for any calendar year shall be added to the Annual Advertising Commitment for the following calendar year, but only up to an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the Annual Advertising Commitment for such current year. The amount by which the
Deficit for any calendar year exceeds ten percent (10%) of the Annual Advertising Commitment for such year shall be payable by WIN within thirty (30) days of the receipt of the Annual Statement and not carried forward. The Deficit for any
calendar year shall be measured only against the actual Annual Advertising Commitment for such year, not including the amount of carried-forward Deficit (i.e., the Deficit of any calendar year may not be carried forward more than one (1) year).
If the aggregate payments made by WIN and its Affiliates combined in respect of advertising in Publisher’s Directory Products in such calendar year are greater than the Annual Advertising Commitment for such year, such excess will be carried
forward and applied against and reduce the Annual Advertising Commitment for the next calendar year (and the subsequent calendar years, as applicable); provided, that the excess that is carried forward from all prior years in the aggregate may not
exceed fifty percent (50%) of the Annual Advertising Commitment for such next calendar year. 
  

 14 








 (e) Publisher will use its commercially reasonable efforts to honor each request of WIN and its
Affiliates to place advertisements in a Directory Product. Publisher will not take any action that would reasonably be expected to impair WIN’s or its Affiliate’s ability to expend the total Annual Advertising Commitment in each calendar
year. 
 Section 4.7 Telephone Company Information Pages. Publisher will include telephone company information pages in the
Primary Directories and Secondary Directories that provide information needed for users to establish, maintain and use local phone service. The content within such telephone company information pages will not be promotional or advertising related.
The telephone company information pages in any White Pages will consist of two (2) types, generic pages and premium pages, each as described in further detail below: 
 (a) Generic Telephone Company Information Pages. At no charge to WIN or its Affiliates, Publisher will Publish: (1) any information required
by any Legal Requirement, such as how to (a) request service, (b) contact repair service, (c) dial directory assistance, (d) reach an account representative, (e) request buried cable locate service, and (f) contact the
special needs center for customers with disabilities; (2) information about emergency numbers, consumer tips and local calling area in the telephone company information pages of the White Pages Published for the Service Areas in the Publisher
Region; (3) non-company specific information, including long distance calling, state and international area codes and a time zone map of the United States; and (4) an instructional notice directing all Subscribers to contact their local
service provider to request any modifications to their existing listing or to request a new listing. WIN will prepare and provide Publisher with this information, with the exception of information about other CLECs or LECs, which must be provided
directly to Publisher by such applicable CLEC or LEC. Subject to Section 4.8, Publisher and WIN will cooperate to integrate the content into the appropriate format and design and to ensure compliance with applicable Legal Requirements.

 (b) Premium Telephone Company Information Pages. WIN and its Affiliates, and all other CLECs and LECs included within the Scoped
Area of a given directory, may elect to purchase premium telephone company information pages for the purpose of providing specific product and service information that is factual, instructional and/or directional in nature in accordance with
then-prevailing policies and pricing, as both may be reasonably established by Publisher from time to time; provided, however, that the prices charged by Publisher to WIN and its Affiliates for such premium telephone company
information pages will, until the date five (5) years after the Effective Date, be equal to or less than the lowest prices for comparable premium telephone company information pages then being charged by Publisher to any Person with respect to
the applicable White Pages and, from and after the date five (5) years after the Effective Date, be on a nondiscriminatory and arms-length basis. 
 (c) Ordering of Telephone Company Information Pages. The generic telephone company information pages will appear before the premium telephone company information pages in each White Pages. Subject to applicable
Legal Requirements, each of the generic telephone company information pages and the premium telephone company information pages will be arranged in alphabetical order, except that any LEC having an official publishing agreement with Publisher and
sixty percent (60%) or more of the total number of Primary Listings for Subscribers in the relevant White Pages will automatically be placed in first position in the generic telephone company information pages and the generic telephone company
information pages for the remainder of the LECs will appear in alphabetical order thereafter followed by the premium telephone company information pages. 
  

 15 








 Section 4.8 Editorial Discretion. Subject to Section 4.1(b), Articles X (including
WIN’s approval rights set forth in Section 10.7) and XI, Exhibit G and any Legal Requirements, Publisher will have the sole and exclusive right, acting in a commercially reasonable manner, to determine the scope, design,
format, content, organization, style, size, and appearance of Primary Directories and Secondary Directories, and all other aspects of Publishing the Primary Directories and Secondary Directories. 
 Section 4.9 Policies. Subject to Section 4.1(b), Publisher may establish, discontinue and modify its policies from time to time with
regard to any and all aspects of Publishing; provided, however, that Publisher will give WIN thirty (30) days’ prior written notification of any changes in Publisher’s policies or products that are reasonably likely to materially
impact WIN’s obligations under this Agreement (other than changes arising from Additional Legal Requirements); and provided, further, that Publisher may not alter the terms of this Agreement in any manner by modification of its policies.
Publisher’s policies will be commercially reasonable. Publisher may not make any commitments on behalf of WIN or its Affiliates other than those contemplated by the terms of this Agreement, without the prior consent of WIN or take any action
that would materially impair or affect WIN’s (or its Affiliates’) ability to discharge the Publishing Obligation. If a change in policy by Publisher results in a material increase in WIN’s or its Affiliates’ costs in meeting
their obligations under this Agreement, the Parties agree to negotiate in good faith to establish an appropriate amount to compensate WIN for such increased costs; provided, however, that (i) no such policy change will become effective until
the Parties have agreed in writing as to the amount of such compensation and (ii) WIN shall not be entitled to such compensation if the change in policy is necessary, as determined in Publisher’s reasonable judgment, in order for Publisher
to comply with a Legal Requirement. 
 Section 4.10 Length of Issue. Upon sixty (60) days’ prior written notice to WIN
(and subject to Section 4.1(b)), Publisher may alter the life of a Primary Directory. If any such voluntary change in a directory issue date requires or is subject to approval by a Governmental Entity, Publisher will bear any and all costs and
expenses, including attorneys’ fees, related to obtaining such approval, and WIN and its Affiliates will have no liability for any such costs and expenses. 
 Section 4.11 Delivery and Distribution. 
 (a) Initial Delivery. Publisher, at no charge
to WIN, its Affiliates or their Subscribers, will timely deliver in accordance with the related Subscriber Delivery Information (i) at least one (1) White Pages and at least one (1) Yellow Pages or (ii) at least one
(1) combined White Pages and Yellow Pages to all Subscribers within each Service Area in the Publisher Region, or any greater Scoped Area, covered by the related Primary Directory(s) at no charge to WIN, its Affiliates or their Subscribers.
Subject to Section 4.1(b), Publisher may select the type or medium of delivery of such Primary Directories. 
 (b) Replacements and
New Customers. Subject to available inventory (which (i) Publisher will maintain at reasonable levels substantially consistent with its practices in other service areas and (ii) Publisher will not materially decrease without WIN’s
prior approval, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), subsequent to the initial distribution of 

  

 16 








 
Primary Directories, Publisher, at no charge to WIN, its Affiliates or their Subscribers, will timely deliver: (i) replacement Primary Directories to
Subscribers within each Service Area in the Publisher Region, or any greater Scoped Area, of such Primary Directory upon any reasonable request from a Subscriber; and (ii) Primary Directories to New Customers within each Service Area in the
Publisher Region, or any greater Scoped Area, for such Primary Directory, provided WIN timely delivers New Customer information for the Service Areas in the Publisher Region to Publisher in a mutually agreed-upon format. 
 (c) Distribution Coverage and Policies. Publisher will provide to WIN, at no charge: (i) one (1) copy of Publisher’s distribution
policies for the Service Areas in the Publisher Region describing which Primary Directories Subscribers will receive, and other matters relevant to the distribution of, Primary Directories in the Service Areas in the Publisher Region; and
(ii) one (1) copy of the Primary Directory coverage information, including those geographic areas included in and served by the Primary Directories and government pages, for each of the Service Areas in the Publisher Region. WIN may make
and retain copies of the information and documents provided pursuant to (i) and (ii) above as necessary to perform its obligations hereunder. 
 (d) Free Calling Area. In the event a local or extended calling area of WIN or its Affiliates extends beyond the scope of a given White Pages, Publisher’s delivery obligation will include only the delivery
of such additional White Pages as may be requested by a Subscriber in such free calling area and required to be provided to such Subscriber by any Legal Requirement. 
 Section 4.12 Rights in the Directory Products. Subject to the rights and licenses granted to Publisher herein, the copyrights and other intellectual property rights in each Directory Product covered by
this Agreement, and any and all materials and content, including illustrations, artwork, photographs, video, audio, text, maps and other advertising and information content created or procured for or in connection with such Directory Product other
than the Licensed Marks, Domain Names and Subscriber List Information, or materials and content submitted by or for WIN or its Affiliates or created by Publisher at the request of WIN or its Affiliates, will be the sole and exclusive property of
Publisher (collectively, “Publisher Materials”). To the extent that any rights to any Publisher Materials vest in WIN or its Affiliates, WIN hereby assigns (or shall cause its Affiliates to assign) all right, title and interest in and to
such Publisher Materials to Publisher, and otherwise agrees to cooperate with Publisher as reasonably necessary to effectuate the intent of this Section 4.12. Without limiting Publisher’s rights and remedies under applicable Law, WIN
agrees not to copy the Directory Products or any other Publisher Materials or other Publisher products and services, or any portion thereof; provided, however, that WIN may make and retain a reasonable number of copies of those portions of the
Directory Products reasonably necessary for use in performing its obligations, and enforcing its rights, under this Agreement and ensuring that its Subscribers are being listed in and receiving copies of the Primary Directories and Secondary
Directories as provided herein. 
 Section 4.13 Changes in Service Areas. 
 (a) The Parties may from time to time, by mutual written agreement, update Exhibit C to include additional Service Areas, including any area
(i) that WIN or its Affiliates expand into as a CLEC or (ii) in which WIN or its Affiliates become the ILEC as a result of an acquisition of the stock or assets of, or via a merger or other business combination transaction with, the Person
previously providing local phone service in that geographic area as the ILEC; provided 

  

 17 








 
that either Party may require, as a condition to its agreement to such addition, that this Agreement be amended in one or more respects with regard to such
additional Service Areas. Publisher will have fifteen (15) months following the addition of any Service Area to Exhibit C to include listings of WIN or its Affiliates from such Service Area in Primary Directories for such Service Area
without being in violation of Section 4.1(a). In the event that WIN or its Affiliates enter any new service area under circumstances described in clauses (i) or (ii) above, then as promptly as practicable after WIN makes a
determination to sell or divest the directory publishing services portion of the business in question, WIN agrees to give written notice to that effect to Publisher; provided, however, that, in the event that WIN acquires the stock or
assets of, or acquires by means of a merger or other business combination, any Person that provides local telephone service in any Service Area already covered by this Agreement, then as soon as practicable after the consummation of such acquisition
or, if applicable, as soon as practicable after the expiration or termination of any pre-existing contractual agreement obligating WIN or its Affiliates to utilize publishing services of a third party in such service area, WIN agrees to give written
notice to that effect to Publisher. For a period of forty-five (45) days from and after the date of any written notice given pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, WIN and Publisher shall negotiate in good faith in an attempt to agree
upon mutually agreeable terms and conditions pursuant to which such service area(s) shall be included as Service Area(s) under this Agreement. If, by the date that is forty-five (45) days after the date of WIN’s written notice to Publisher
under the preceding sentence, Exhibit C has not been updated to include the subject service areas(s) as Service Area(s) under this Agreement, then WIN and its Affiliates shall be entitled in their sole and absolute discretion to discuss,
negotiate and enter into agreements with third parties with regard to publishing services in such service area(s) without any further obligation to Publisher. 
 (b) If WIN and its Affiliates intend to cease providing local telephone service in a geographic area within any Service Area, WIN shall advise Publisher in writing as soon as practicable (and, in any event, no later
than the date on which this information may be made public). Upon WIN and its Affiliates ceasing to provide local telephone service in a geographic area, Publisher will no longer have any obligation under this Agreement to Publish Primary
Directories for that geographic area; provided, however, that Publisher will Publish any Primary Directories scheduled to be issued within one (1) year of WIN and its Affiliates ceasing such service to the extent required by any
Legal Requirement. 
 (c) Notwithstanding Section 4.13(b), if WIN and its Affiliates cease providing local telephone service in any
Service Area(s) as a result of (i) a sale, assignment or other transfer of access lines, (ii) a merger or other business combination transaction with a Person in respect of access lines, or (iii) any other agreement with any third
party pursuant to which such Person will provide local telephone service in lieu of WIN or its Affiliates in such Service Area(s), and, in any of the foregoing cases, such event does not constitute a Change of Control: (A) WIN will use its
commercially reasonable efforts to require the acquiring Person to agree in writing (whether as part of the acquisition agreement with WIN that provides for Publisher to be a third party beneficiary or in a separate agreement) to assume this
Agreement to the extent of the relevant Service Area(s) (i.e., that all references to the Publisher Region will mean the relevant Service Area(s)) on the same terms as are then in effect under the respective agreements (except that Publisher will be
required to comply with such Person’s reasonable branding requirements as in effect from time to time with respect to such Person’s trademarks and other relevant intellectual property); and (B) to the extent that the acquiring Person
so agrees in writing to assume this Agreement, Publisher will not be released from its obligations under this Agreement, including the obligation to Publish Primary Directories and Secondary Directories for the relevant Service Area(s). 

 

 18 








 Section 4.14 Open Access Termination. 
 (a) If federal law no longer requires WIN or its Affiliates to provide Subscriber List Information and Subscriber Delivery Information under
nondiscriminatory and reasonable rates, terms and conditions to any Person requesting such information for the purpose of publishing directories (“Open Access Termination”), WIN will continue to license such information to Publisher for
the term of this Agreement on terms and conditions at least as favorable as those then being offered by WIN to any Person materially doing business in the Publisher Region. 
 (b) If Open Access Termination occurs, WIN will charge Publisher for Subscriber List Information and Subscriber Delivery Information under
Section 5.1 at the lowest price then being charged by WIN for such information to any other Person doing business in the Publisher Region (it being understood that if WIN is not licensing Subscriber List Information and Subscriber Delivery
Information to at least two (2) other bona fide purchasers of such information (other than Affiliates of WIN) in the Publisher Region, then the prices that WIN charges Publisher for such information will be equal to the average price that other
ILECs of comparable size charge for such information). 
 Section 4.15 Regulatory Change. 
 (a) Each Party shall provide the other Party with prompt written notice of the announcement by a Governmental Entity of any Additional Legal
Requirement. 
 (b) Publisher shall exercise reasonably prudent business judgment with respect to the manner in which it complies with any
Additional Legal Requirement. 
 (c) Publisher shall bear any cost increase associated with any Additional Legal Requirement;
provided, however, that WIN shall reimburse Publisher for any reasonable and documented incremental costs incurred by Publisher in connection with the production, publication and distribution of the Primary Directories in the Publisher
Region resulting from Publisher’s compliance with Additional Legal Requirements during the term of this Agreement to the extent (but only to the extent) that such costs are incurred by Publisher and such Additional Legal Requirements
(x) are attributable to WIN’s interaction with regulators and its agreement to make telephone directory concessions in exchange for desired outcomes in favor of any other line of its business or (y) are not mandated by Law, arise
under an agreement of the type referred to in clause (3) of the definition of Legal Requirements and are not consistent with the directory-related obligations of WIN under such agreements generally in areas outside the Publisher Region. WIN
shall have a right to audit any increases in Publisher’s costs attributable to any Additional Legal Requirement for which Publisher seeks reimbursement hereunder. Nothing in this Section 4.13(c) shall be deemed to limit WIN’s
obligations under Section 4.1(d). 
 Section 4.16 Publishing Order. If any Governmental Entity having jurisdiction over WIN
or its Affiliates requires WIN or its Affiliates to Publish any White Pages (and does not allow WIN or its Affiliates to delegate such requirement to Publisher) or if an order of a Governmental Entity declares this Agreement null and void with
respect to any White Pages (“Publishing Order”), WIN or its Affiliates will Publish the affected White Pages; provided, however, that, any White Pages that WIN or its Affiliates Publish to fulfill the 

  

 19 








 
Publishing Obligation will contain only the information required to be in such White Pages (e.g., Primary Listings) and will not include any paid advertising
content. 
 Section 4.17 Errors And Omissions. WIN shall promptly notify Publisher and Publisher shall promptly notify WIN of any
material error or omission in a Primary Directory or Secondary Directory that comes to its attention. 
 (a) If the error or omission was
caused by Publisher, Publisher will handle the error or omission in its reasonable discretion, which shall be at no cost to WIN. 
 (b) If
the error or omission was not caused by Publisher, WIN will handle the error or omission in its reasonable discretion, which shall be at no cost to Publisher. 
 (c) The provisions of this Section 4.17 shall in no way limit the Parties’ respective rights, remedies and obligations under Article VI or otherwise. 
 Section 4.18 Costs and Expenses. Unless otherwise mutually agreed in writing among the Parties or otherwise expressly set forth herein, all

Publisher to Publish Primary Directories and Secondary Directories in accordance with Publisher’s publication schedule. The Subscriber List Information shall include up-to-date information on all restrictions on the use of such information

 (c) WIN and Publisher will use electronic means for the provision of Subscriber List Information and Subscriber Delivery Information and will cooperate
in good faith to achieve an efficient and effective provisioning delivery process, including having WIN provide such 

  

 20 








 
information in such format as Publisher may reasonably request from time to time if Publisher pays all of WIN’s costs to provide the information in such
format on a cost basis plus ten percent (10%). 
 (d) If WIN elects to use a third party to deliver Subscriber List Information and/or
Subscriber Delivery Information to Publisher, then WIN will prepare and promptly provide to Publisher and such third party duplicate written authorizations to facilitate such delivery, and WIN will clearly designate and distinguish its information
from all other information delivered by or through such third party, provided that (i) WIN will in any event remain liable for its obligations hereunder and (ii) such third party shall delivery such information to Publisher on terms and
conditions substantially similar to those under which WIN provided the information to Publisher. WIN will also promptly resolve any problems that may arise with respect to such third-party deliveries. 
 (e) WIN will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide mutually agreed upon indicators with all Subscriber List Information and Subscriber Delivery
Information in a form that will ensure that such Subscribers’ listings, published advertising, and/or advertisement billings will not be adversely impacted if a Subscriber changes its LEC. 
 (f) The Parties acknowledge that Publisher requires the Subscriber List Information and Subscriber Delivery Information provided under Article XII to
perform its obligations, and enjoy its rights and privileges, under this Agreement. Consequently, the Parties agree that if this Agreement is terminated due to Publisher’s breach of Article XII, WIN will reinstate this Agreement provided that
Publisher has identified the cause of such breach, fully remedied such breach and established reasonable procedures to prevent the recurrence of such breach. 
 Section 5.2 Business Service Order Extract and Support. 
 (a) At no charge to Publisher, WIN
will provide Publisher with a daily Distributed Customer Record Inventory System (“DCRIS”) extract in electronic format during the period commencing no later than September 28, 2007 and ending on the DCRIS Replacement Date (as
that term is defined in Section 5.2(b)). Publisher shall bear all costs of developing, testing and deploying the daily DCRIS extract in electronic format. 
 (b) Commencing not less than one hundred eighty (180) days prior to each fifth year anniversary of the Effective Date, WIN and Publisher will use reasonable commercial efforts to discuss and agree upon the most
appropriate mechanism by which WIN can supply Publisher, at no on-going charge to Publisher after payment of initial development charges described below, with the functional equivalent of the daily DCRIS extract (in each instance, the “DCRIS
Replacement”), taking into then-current technologies, business considerations, Legal Requirements and other relevant factors. The parties’ agreement with respect to the DCRIS Replacement will be described in a written amendment to this
Agreement. Unless otherwise agreed by the parties, the cost of developing, testing, implementing and operating the DCRIS Replacement shall be borne equally by the parties. Commencing on each date that a DCRIS Replacement has been fully tested and
deployed (the “DCRIS Replacement Date”) and continuing through the date this Agreement terminates or expires, WIN will, at no charge to Publisher, provide Publisher with the DCRIS Replacement. 
  

 21 








 (c) Throughout the term of this Agreement, WIN will, at no charge to Publisher, provide Publisher with
reasonable access to WIN’s call center representatives to promptly respond to inquiries regarding DCRIS and any service order information system that replaces DCRIS. Such inquiries will be limited to errors or potential errors that may affect
the accuracy of Subscriber Listing Information and shall not cover any other purposes including, without limitation, marketing purposes. In no event shall this section limit WIN’s ability to make changes to its call center functions, and if WIN
makes any changes that impact the Publisher’s ability to make inquiries under this section, the parties will use reasonable commercial efforts to discuss and agree upon modified procedures to allow such continued inquiries. If a dispute arises
between the parties with respect to the quality or timeliness of the responses provided by WIN’s call center representatives pursuant to this Section 5.2(c), the parties agree to use and follow the dispute resolution procedure described
below. In the event of such a dispute, each party shall immediately appoint a knowledgeable, responsible representative to negotiate in good faith to resolve such dispute. The parties intend that these negotiations be conducted by experienced
business representatives empowered to decide the issues. Such representatives shall discuss and attempt to resolve the matter within ten (10) business days immediately following the escalation. If, by the end of the tenth business day, the
matter has not been resolved to the satisfaction of both representatives, the matter will be escalated to the Chief Financial Officer of each party. The Chief Financial Officers shall meet and attempt to resolve the dispute within an additional ten
(10) business days. If they are able to resolve the dispute within such time period, the resolution will be memorialized in a written settlement and release agreements, to be executed within five (5) business days thereafter. If they are
unable to resolve the dispute within such time period, then the parties my resort to judicial action pursuant to Section 14.5. The parties may vary the duration and form of the foregoing escalation procedures by mutual written agreement.

advertising; WIN will assume the responsibility for and advance the cost of defending that 

  

 22 








 
portion of the Claim relating to any of WIN Subscribers’ listings; and the Parties will cooperate, share information and coordinate their efforts in an
attempt to eliminate or minimize any liability and their respective costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees). This assumption of the defense of a Claim, or portion thereof, does not imply or create an assumption of liability for any final
settlement or judgment for such Claim, or portion thereof. 
 Section 6.4 Indemnification. 
 (a) Publisher will indemnify and hold harmless WIN, its Affiliates and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents and assigns from and
against any and all Losses directly or indirectly based upon, arising from or resulting from (i) Publisher’s failure to perform any of its obligations under this Agreement (including Sections 4.1(a) and 4.1(b)); (ii) any third-party
claims arising from any error or omission in or of Subscriber’s listing or advertising in a Primary Directory or Secondary Directory caused by Publisher, its employees, agents, representatives or subcontractors and (iii) any third-party
claims that any Primary Directory or Secondary Directory (except any materials or other information provided by WIN or its Affiliates) or any grants that Publisher makes under this Agreement violate or infringe upon the intellectual property rights
of any third party or require the consent of any third party. 
 (b) WIN will indemnify and hold harmless Publisher and its directors,
officers, employees, Affiliates, agents and assigns from and against any and all Losses directly or indirectly based upon, arising from or resulting from (i) WIN’s failure to perform any of its obligations under this Agreement;

rights of any third party or require the consent of any third party. 
 Section 6.5 Notice and Procedures. A Party seeking
indemnification (the “Indemnified Party”) will give prompt written notice in reasonable detail (the “Notice of Claim”) to the indemnifying Party (the “Indemnifying Party”) stating the basis of any Claim for which
indemnification is being sought hereunder within thirty (30) days after its knowledge thereof; provided that the Indemnified Party’s failure to provide any such notice to the Indemnifying Party will not relieve the Indemnifying Party of or
from any of its obligations hereunder unless and to the extent that the Indemnifying Party suffers prejudice as a result of such failure. If the facts giving rise to such indemnification involve an actual or threatened Claim by or against a third
party: 
 (a) the Parties hereto will cooperate in the prosecution or defense of such Claim in accordance with Section 6.3 above and
will furnish such records, information and testimony and attend to such proceedings as may be reasonably requested in connection therewith; and 
 (b) the Indemnified Party will make no settlement of any Claim that would give rise to liability on the part of the Indemnifying Party without the latter Party’s prior written consent (which shall not be unreasonably conditioned,
withheld or delayed), and the Indemnifying Party will not be liable for the amount of any settlement affected without its prior written consent. 
  

 23

 ARTICLE VII 
 TERMINATION 
 Section 7.1 Termination by Publisher. 
 (a) If WIN commits a Material Default, Publisher may provide written notice to WIN specifying such Material Default in reasonable detail (a
“Default Notice”). Upon receipt of a Default Notice, WIN may elect to (i) cure such Material Default (unless such Material Default is not susceptible to cure) and (ii) agree to indemnify Publisher pursuant to
Section 6.4(b) to the extent Publisher has incurred Losses. If, within ninety (90) days of Publisher providing WIN with a Default Notice, WIN has not cured such Material Default (or, if curable but not reasonably curable within such ninety
(90)-day period, provided Publisher with reasonable assurances that it has diligently commenced all actions necessary to cure such Material Default as soon as reasonably practicable) and has not given Publisher written notice of its agreement to
indemnify Publisher for such Material Default to the extent Publisher has incurred Losses, Publisher may terminate this Agreement immediately. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if WIN provides Publisher with written notice disputing the existence of a
Material Default within ninety (90) days of the delivery of the Default Notice, the Parties will attempt in good faith to resolve such dispute and determine the appropriate remedial action, including referral of the dispute to a senior
executive officer of each of WIN and Publisher for a period of ten (10) business days (“Breach Resolution Process”). If the Parties are unable to resolve such dispute by means of the Breach Resolution Process, WIN or Publisher
may seek adjudication of such dispute as provided in Section 14.5. If neither WIN nor Publisher commences such an action within ninety (90) days after completion of the Breach Resolution Process, or it is determined pursuant to
Section 14.5 that such Material Default occurred and remains uncured, Publisher may terminate this Agreement immediately thereafter. 
 (b) If Publisher believes that a Terminable Regulatory Change has occurred, it may, within one (1) year following the occurrence of such Terminable Regulatory Change, provide WIN with written notice of its intent to terminate this
Agreement, which written notice will be effective in ninety (90) days unless WIN provides written notice to Publisher within such ninety (90)-day period disputing that a Terminable Regulatory Change has occurred. If WIN disputes the occurrence
of a Terminable Regulatory Change, the Parties will attempt in good faith to resolve such dispute and determine the appropriate remedial action pursuant to the Breach Resolution Process. If the Parties are unable to resolve such dispute by means of
the Breach Resolution Process, WIN or Publisher may seek adjudication of such dispute as provided in Section 14.5. If neither WIN nor Publisher commences such an action within ninety (90) days after completion of the Breach Resolution
Process, or it is determined pursuant to Section 14.5 that such Terminable Regulatory Change occurred and remains uncured, Publisher may terminate this Agreement immediately thereafter. 
 (c) If WIN commits a Material Default with respect to any Service Area as opposed to the Agreement taken as a whole (each of clauses (i) and
(ii) a “Service Area Default”), Publisher may provide written notice to WIN specifying such Service Area Default in reasonable 

  

 24 








 
detail (a “Service Area Default Notice”). Upon receipt of a Service Area Default Notice, WIN may elect to (A) cure the Service Area
Default (unless such Service Area Default is not susceptible to cure) and (B) agree to indemnify Publisher pursuant to Section 6.4(b) to the extent Publisher has incurred Losses. If, within ninety (90) days of Publisher providing WIN
with a Service Area Default Notice, WIN has not cured such Service Area Default (or, if curable but not reasonably curable within such ninety (90) day-period, provided Publisher with reasonable assurances that it has diligently commenced all
actions necessary to cure such Service Area Default as soon as reasonably practicable) and has not given Publisher written notice of its agreement to indemnify Publisher for such Service Area Default to the extent Publisher has incurred Losses,
Publisher may terminate this Agreement with respect to the Service Area(s) that are the subject of such Service Area Default. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if WIN provides Publisher with written notice disputing the existence of a Service Area
Default within ninety (90) days of the delivery of a Service Area Default Notice, the Parties will attempt in good faith to resolve such dispute and determine the appropriate remedial action pursuant to the Breach Resolution Process. If the
Parties are unable to resolve such dispute by means of the Breach Resolution Process, WIN or Publisher may seek adjudication of such dispute as provided in Section 14.5. If neither WIN nor Publisher commences such an action within ninety
(90) days after completion of the Breach Resolution Process or it is determined pursuant to Section 14.5 that a Service Area Default occurred and remains uncured, Publisher may terminate this Agreement immediately with respect to the
Service Area(s) that are the subject of such Service Area Default. 
 Section 7.2 Termination by WIN. 
 (a) If Publisher commits a Material Default, WIN may provide Publisher with a Default Notice. Upon receipt of a Default Notice, Publisher may elect to
(i) cure such Material Default (unless such Material Default is not susceptible to cure) and (ii) agree to indemnify WIN pursuant to Section 6.4(a) to the extent WIN has incurred Losses. If, within ninety (90) days of WIN
providing Publisher with a Default Notice, Publisher has not cured such Material Default (or, if curable but not reasonably curable within such ninety (90)-day period, provided WIN with reasonable assurances that it has diligently commenced all
actions necessary to cure such Material Default as soon as reasonably practicable) and has not given WIN written notice of its agreement to indemnify WIN for such Material Default to the extent WIN has incurred Losses, WIN may terminate this
Agreement (including Publisher’s official directory publisher status) immediately. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Publisher provides WIN with written notice disputing the existence of a Material Default within ninety (90) days of the
delivery of the Default Notice, the Parties will attempt in good faith to resolve such dispute and determine the appropriate remedial action pursuant to the Breach Resolution Process. If the Parties are unable to resolve such dispute by means of the
Breach Resolution Process, either Party may seek adjudication of such dispute as provided in Section 14.5. If neither Party commences such an action within ninety (90) days after completion of the Breach Resolution Process or it is
determined pursuant to Section 14.5 that a Material Default occurred and remains uncured, WIN may terminate this Agreement (including Publisher’s official directory publisher status and license to Publish) immediately thereafter.

 (b) If Publisher breaches this Agreement in a manner that results in a material and continuing failure to discharge the Publishing
Obligation with respect to any Primary Directory (a “Primary Directory Default”), WIN may provide written notice to Publisher specifying such Primary Directory Default in reasonable detail (a “Directory Default
Notice”). Upon receipt of a Directory Default Notice, Publisher may elect to (i) cure the Primary Directory Default (unless such Primary Directory Default is not susceptible to cure) and (ii) agree to indemnify WIN pursuant to
Section 6.4(a) to the extent WIN has incurred Losses. If, within ninety (90) days of WIN 

  

 25 








 
providing Publisher with a Directory Default Notice, Publisher has not cured such Primary Directory Default (or, if curable but not reasonably curable within
such ninety (90)-day period, provided WIN with reasonable assurances that it has diligently commenced all actions necessary to cure such Primary Directory Default as soon as reasonably practicable) and has not given WIN written notice of its
agreement to indemnify WIN for such Primary Directory Default to the extent WIN has incurred Losses, WIN may terminate this Agreement (including Publisher’s official directory publisher status and license to Publish) with respect to the Service
Area covered by the affected Primary Directory immediately. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Publisher provides WIN with written notice disputing the existence of a Primary Directory Default within ninety (90) days of the delivery of the
Directory Default Notice, the Parties will attempt in good faith to resolve such dispute and determine the appropriate remedial action pursuant to the Breach Resolution Process. If the Parties are unable to resolve such dispute by means of the
Breach Resolution Process, either Party may seek adjudication of such dispute as provided in Section 14.5. If neither Party commences such an action within ninety (90) days after completion of the Breach Resolution Process or it is
determined that a Primary Directory Default occurred and remains uncured, WIN may terminate this Agreement (including Publisher’s official directory publisher status and license to Publish) immediately with respect to the Service Area covered
by the affected Primary Directory. 
 (c) WIN may terminate this Agreement (including Publisher’s official directory publisher status
and license to Publish) immediately if WIN has terminated, or had the right to terminate (even if such right is not actually exercised) and provided Publisher written notice of such right within thirty (30) days after obtaining knowledge of the
circumstances giving rise to such right, this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.2(b) above or Section 7.2(d) below with respect to twenty percent (20%) or more of the Subscribers of WIN and its Affiliates in the Service Areas, such
percentage to be determined by using a numerator of the total number of Subscribers of WIN and its Affiliates in the Service Areas terminated by WIN (or which WIN has had the right to terminate (even if such right is not actually exercised))
pursuant to Section 7.2(b) above or Section 7.2(d) below, and a denominator of the total number of Subscribers of WIN and its Affiliates in the Service Areas that would have been subject to this Agreement had WIN not elected to terminate
any such Service Areas pursuant to Section 7.2(b) above or Section 7.2(d) below. 
 (d) If any of Publisher, the WCAS Subs or
their respective Affiliates (including, without limitation, Local Insight Media, L.P. or any of its subsidiaries) (i) engages in the marketing, sale or distribution of any voice, data or video communication services or products via fixed or
wireless communication networks (“Communication Services”) in the Service Areas, (ii) acts as a sales agent for any Person with respect to the marketing, sale or distribution of Communication Services (other than WIN or its
Affiliates) in the Service Areas, or (iii) enters into a joint venture, strategic alliance, product bundling, revenue sharing or similar arrangement with any Person (other than WIN or its Affiliates) pursuant to which such Person’s
Communication Services are offered, marketed, sold or priced or otherwise provided in connection with Publisher’s Directory Products in the Service Areas (each of clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), a “Restricted Activity
Default”), WIN may provide written notice to Publisher specifying such Restricted Activity Default in reasonable detail (an “Activity Default Notice”). For the avoidance of doubt, the Parties acknowledge that it will not
constitute a Restricted Activity Default if any of Publisher, its subsidiaries or Affiliates is selling and publishing in any Directory Product any advertisement for any Person engaged in the business of providing Communication Services (subject to
Section 11.2). Upon receipt of an Activity Default Notice, Publisher may elect to (A) discontinue or terminate the activity, agreement or arrangement specified in such Activity Default Notice (the “Specified Restricted
Activity”) and (B) agree to indemnify WIN pursuant to Section 6.4(a) to the extent WIN has incurred Losses. If, within ninety 

  

 26 








 
(90) days of WIN providing Publisher with an Activity Default Notice, Publisher has not discontinued or terminated the Specified Restricted Activity (or, if
the Specified Restricted Activity can be terminated or discontinued but cannot reasonably be terminated or discontinued within such ninety (90)-day period, provided WIN with reasonable assurances that it has diligently commenced all actions
necessary to discontinue or terminate such Specified Restricted Activity as soon as reasonably practicable) and has not given WIN written notice of its agreement to indemnify WIN for such Restricted Activity Default to the extent WIN has incurred
Losses, WIN may terminate this Agreement (including Publisher’s official directory Publisher status and license to Publish) with respect to the Service Area in which the Specified Restricted Activity occurred. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if
Publisher provides WIN with written notice disputing the existence of a Restricted Activity Default within ninety (90) days of the delivery of the Activity Default Notice, the Parties will attempt in good faith to resolve such dispute and
determine the appropriate remedial action pursuant to the Breach Resolution Process. If the Parties are unable to resolve such dispute by means of the Breach Resolution Process, either Party may seek adjudication of such dispute as provided in
Section 14.5. If neither Party commences such an action within ninety (90) days after completion of the Breach Resolution Process or it is determined pursuant to Section 14.5 that a Restricted Activity Default occurred and remains
uncured, WIN may terminate this Agreement (including Publisher’s official directory Publisher status and license to Publish) immediately with respect to the Service Area in which the Specified Restricted Activity occurred. 
 (e) For purposes of clarification, the Parties acknowledge that nothing in Section 7.2(d) is intended to restrict Publisher’s ability to
continue to offer: (i) web hosting services or (ii) any call management, call tracking or similar product or service designed and implemented principally to measure the usage and effectiveness of advertisements in Publisher’s
Directory Products. 
 (f) Notwithstanding the restrictions in Section 7.2(d), it shall not be a breach of this Section 7.2
if a Person that controls or is under common control with (but is not controlled by) Publisher (including the WCAS Subs and any of their respective Affiliates, but excluding Local Insight Media, L.P. the Division Subsidiaries or any of their
respective subsidiaries or controlled Affiliates) engages in a Specified Restricted Activity specified in clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) of Section 7.2(d), so long as the activities set forth in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of
Section 7.2(d) are not occurring with respect to Publisher’s Directory Products and so long as (A) such Person is not operated jointly with or under common management with Publisher, (B) such Person does not share facilities,
sales personnel, management, supervisors or other key employees with Publisher, (C) such Person and Publisher do not share any financial data or financial modeling (other than summary financial data), business plans and strategies, business
operations and systems, trade secrets, know-how, research and development, market opportunities, business process and procedures (not otherwise available to the general public), (D) such Person does not have a product bundling or similar joint
venture or strategic alliance agreement, arrangement or product offering with Publisher with respect to any Specified Restricted Activities, and (E) such Person does not have a revenue-sharing or similar arrangement with Publisher with respect
to any Specified Restricted Activities. In the event that a Person that controls or is under common control with (but is not controlled by) Publisher (including the WCAS Subs and any of their respective Affiliates, but excluding Local Insight Media,
L.P. the Division Subsidiaries or any of their respective subsidiaries or controlled Affiliates) consummates a transaction which WIN in good faith believes may involve non-compliance with the restrictions contained in subclauses (A), (B),
(C) and (D) of the first 

  

 27 








 
sentence of this Section 7.2(f), then WIN shall have the right to require such Person, upon thirty (30) day’s prior written notice, to deliver
to WIN a certificate signed by an officer of each of the Publisher and such Person describing in reasonable detail (X) the nature of the Specified Restricted Activity, (Y) the reason the Publisher and such Person believe that the Specified
Restricted Activity is permitted pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 7.2(f), and (Z) a list of the measures, if any are reasonably necessary, being implemented by the Publisher, the WCAS Subs, Local Insight Media, L.P. and such
Person to ensure compliance with the restrictions contained in subclauses (A), (B), (C) and (D) of the first sentence of this Section 7.2(f). 
 Section 7.3 Transition upon Termination. 
 (a) If this Agreement terminates pursuant to
Section 7.1(a), the Parties will cooperate in good faith to transition the Publishing Obligation to such Person or Persons that WIN desires as soon as reasonably practicable and to ensure that the Publishing Obligation is discharged until such
transition is complete, with WIN bearing all direct costs and expenses related to such transitioning of the Publishing Obligation (e.g., data migration and third-party consents) (“Transition Costs”); provided that in no event
will such transition last more than fifteen (15) months from the date of termination. 
 (b) If Publisher terminates this Agreement
with respect to any Service Area pursuant to Section 7.1(b), the Parties will cooperate in good faith to transition the Publishing Obligation with respect to such Service Area to such Person or Persons that WIN desires as soon as reasonably
practicable and to ensure that the Publishing Obligation is discharged until such transition is complete, with WIN bearing all Transition Costs; provided that in no event will such transition last more than fifteen (15) months from the
date of termination with respect to such Service Area. 
 (c) If this Agreement terminates pursuant to Section 7.2(a) or
Section 7.2(c), the Parties will cooperate in good faith to transition the Publishing Obligation to such Person or Persons that WIN desires as soon as reasonably practicable and to ensure that the Publishing Obligation is discharged until such
transition is complete, with Publisher bearing all Transition Costs; provided that in no event will such transition last more than fifteen (15) months from the date of termination. 
 (d) If WIN terminates this Agreement with respect to any Service Area pursuant to Section 7.2(b) or Section 7.2(d), the Parties will cooperate
in good faith to transition the Publishing Obligation with respect to such Service Area to such Person or Persons that WIN desires as soon as reasonably practicable and to ensure that the Publishing Obligation is discharged until such transition is
complete, with Publisher bearing all Transition Costs; provided that in no event will such transition last more than fifteen (15) months from the date of termination with respect to such Service Area. 
 (e) Nothing contained in this Section 7.3 will be a deemed a waiver or release of any rights or remedies that a Party may have on account of any
termination of this Agreement (whether in its entirety or only with respect to a particular Service Area or Service Areas) under this Agreement or applicable Law. 
 Section 7.4 Termination Without Prejudice. No Party will be subject to damages or have any other liability to any other Party solely as a result of such Party’s

terminating this Agreement in accordance with its terms, and any such termination of this Agreement by a Party will be without prejudice to any other right
or remedy of such Party under this Agreement or applicable Law.

Agreement shall survive any termination or expiration of this Agreement: Article I, Section 4.12, Article VI, Section 7.3, Section 7.4, Section 8.2, Section 10.3, Section 10.9, Section 13.4 to 13.8, and Article
XIV. 
 ARTICLE VIII 
 OTHER DEFAULTS; LIMITATION OF LIABILITY 
 Section 8.1 Other Defaults. If a Party commits an Other
Default, the non-defaulting Party may provide written notice to the defaulting Party specifying such Other Default in reasonable detail (an “Other Default Notice”). Upon receipt of an Other Default Notice, the defaulting Party may elect to
(i) cure such Other Default (unless such Other Default is not susceptible to cure) and (ii) agree to indemnify the non-defaulting Party pursuant to Section 6.4. If, within thirty (30) days of the defaulting Party providing the
non-defaulting Party with an Other Default Notice, the non-defaulting Party has not cured such Other Default (or, if curable but not reasonably curable within such thirty (30) day period, provided the non-defaulting Party with reasonable
assurances that it has diligently commenced all actions necessary to cure such Other Default as soon as reasonably practicable) and has not given the non-defaulting Party written notice of its agreement to indemnify the non-defaulting Party for such
Other Default, the non-defaulting Party may pursue any available remedy under this Agreement or applicable Law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the defaulting Party provides the non-defaulting Party with written notice disputing the existence of
an Other Default within thirty (30) days of the delivery of the Other Default Notice, the Parties will attempt in good faith to resolve such dispute and determine the appropriate remedial action pursuant to the Breach Resolution Process.

 Section 8.2 Limitation of Liability. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Party or its Affiliates will be
liable to any other Party or its Affiliates for any Losses other than direct damages or Losses paid to a third party, except in the case of fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct. Each Party agrees that it is not entitled to recover and
agrees to waive any claim with respect to, and will not seek, consequential, punitive or any other special damages as to any matter under, relating to or arising out of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, except with respect to such
claims and damages arising directly out of a Party’s fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct or its indemnification obligations under this Agreement. 
 Section 8.3 Determination of Other Default. If it is determined pursuant to a proceeding commenced pursuant to Section 14.5 that a purported Material Default, Service Area Default, Primary Directory
Default or Restricted Activity Default is in actuality an Other Default, the Parties will be entitled to seek resolution of such Other Default pursuant to Section 14.5 without complying with the requirements of this Article VIII. 
  

 29 








 ARTICLE IX

Law that would reasonably be expected to delay, impair or prevent a Party’s performance such that it would fall into the scope of Section 9.1, each Party agrees that: (i) it will not propose, solicit or otherwise encourage any such
Law; and (ii) if any applicable Governmental Entity proposes any such Law, such Party will, in good faith and using commercially reasonable efforts, (A) object to and attempt to prevent the implementation of any such proposal and

 Section 10.2 Compliance With Branding Policies. 
 (a) Publisher must comply in all material respects at all times with the Branding Policies (as defined in Section 11.1) for each Licensed Mark and
the Domain Names and must at all times use each Licensed Mark and Domain Name in a manner that would not reasonably be expected to injure the goodwill and reputation of WIN or of the business associated with the Licensed Marks and Domain Names. The
Parties agree that the Branding Policies are designed to preserve and protect the goodwill and reputation of WIN and of the business associated with the Licensed Marks and Domain Names. 
 (b) If Publisher’s use of any Licensed Mark varies from the Branding Policies because of a change to the Branding Policies pursuant to
Section 11.1 or a change to the Licensed Marks or Domain Names by WIN in accordance with Section 11.3 (including due to WIN’s decision to rebrand its business), notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Publisher (i) may
exhaust its existing stocks of materials displaying the Licensed Marks and Domain Names within a commercially reasonable period of time, (ii) will be permitted to produce, publish and distribute Primary Directories and Secondary Directories
containing the Licensed Marks which have a Business Office Close Date that is less than one hundred eighty (180) days after the date of receipt of notice by Publisher from WIN of such change to the Branding Policies or the Licensed Marks, and
(iii) may continue to utilize the Domain Names for such commercially reasonable period of time as necessary to transition the content associated with any Domain Name to a new Domain Name. If Publisher’s use of any Licensed Mark or Domain
Name varies from the terms and conditions for the use thereof under this Agreement, including the Branding Policies, for any reason other than a change to the Branding Policies or the Licensed Marks or Domain Names by WIN, Publisher shall, upon
receipt of written notice by Publisher from WIN thereof, as promptly as is practicable, cease such use of the Licensed Mark or Domain Name, as applicable, and destroy or modify all materials or content displaying the Licensed Mark or Domain Name in
violation of this Agreement. 
 Section 10.3 Reservation of Rights. WIN reserves all rights in and to the Licensed Marks and
Domain Names not otherwise expressly granted to Publisher hereunder. 
 Section 10.4 Co-Branding. Publisher shall not use any
other trademark, service mark, phrase, word or symbol, whether owned by Publisher, its Affiliates or by third parties, in conjunction with the Licensed Marks or Domain Names, except as provided in Section 11.3 of this Agreement.

Trademark Office on the products as authorized by this Agreement shall include use of the notice of registration - ® - at least one (1) time on each good in a manner that is visible to the public. Publisher shall cause each
Primary Directory, each Secondary Directory and each Web page utilizing a Domain Name to include a disclaimer indicating that Publisher has created the Directory Product or the Web page and is responsible for the content thereof. 
 Section 10.6 Corporate or Business Name. Publisher shall not, nor shall it allow its Affiliates to, use any Licensed Mark or the name
“Windstream” or any mark or name confusingly similar thereto in their respective corporate or business names. Furthermore, Publisher and its Affiliates shall not use any corporate or business name or any mark, logo or 

  

 32 








 
insignia that suggests in any manner that Publisher or its Affiliates are a subsidiary of or affiliated with WIN; provided, however, that Publisher may
suggest and hold itself out as having the rights provided to Publisher pursuant to the Agreement. The Parties acknowledge that any use of the Licensed Marks by Publisher in accordance with Sections 10.1, 11.1 and 11.2 will not violate this
Section 10.6. 
 Section 10.7 Approval of Materials. 
 (a) Prior to publication of any Primary Directory or Secondary Directory, packaging, labels, advertising and other material on which a Licensed Mark or
other WIN-provided content appears or the display of any content on a Web page utilizing a Domain Name, Publisher shall provide to WIN for approval samples of such material or content; provided, however, that Publisher shall not be obligated to
provide such samples if such material or content has been previously approved by WIN in the same or substantially the same form. 
 (b)
Immediately upon notice from WIN thereof, Publisher agrees to modify any such materials and contents if the use or presentation of a Licensed Mark, WIN-provided content or other content is not, in WIN’s reasonable discretion, in accordance with
the provisions of this Agreement, including the Branding Policies. In the event that WIN does not notify Publisher within ten (10) business days of its receipt of any such samples that it disapproves of Publisher’s proposed use or
presentation of the Licensed Marks or Domain Names, WIN shall be deemed to have approved of such use or presentation. 
 Section 10.8
Rights to the Licensed Marks and Domain Names. 
 (a) Interest in Licensed Marks and Domain Names. 
 (i) WIN represents and warrants that (i) to the knowledge of WIN, WIN owns all right, title and interest (including the goodwill)
in and to (x) the Licensed Marks for use on Directory Products; and (y) the Domain Names and (ii) the execution and performance of this Agreement by WIN will not breach any other agreement or license relating to the Licensed Marks or
Domain Names. 
 (ii) Publisher acknowledges WIN’s ownership of the Licensed Marks and Domain Names, the goodwill
connected with them and the validity of the Licensed Marks and Domain Names. Publisher shall acquire no right, title or interest in the Licensed Marks or Domain Names or the goodwill associated with the Licensed Marks or Domain Names due to its use
of the Licensed Marks and Domain Names, other than the right to use the Licensed Marks and Domain Names in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. All use of the Licensed Marks and Domain Names by Publisher and its Affiliates
shall inure to the benefit of WIN. Neither Publisher nor its Affiliates will take any action, nor assist anyone in taking any action, that would challenge or otherwise impair the validity of or WIN’s ownership of the Licensed Marks or Domain
Names in any manner whatsoever (including by way of lawsuits, oppositions or cease-and-desist letters). 
 (b) Registration of Marks by
Publisher. Publisher agrees that neither it nor any of its Affiliates will make any application to register the Licensed Marks or Domain Names, nor adopt, use, license, make an application to register or register any trademark, service mark,
trade 

  

 33 








 
name or domain name that is confusingly similar to a Licensed Mark or Domain Name or any word, symbol, character, or set of words, symbols, or characters,
which in any language would be identified as substantially or materially the equivalent of a Licensed Mark or Domain Name, during and after expiration or termination of the Agreement. If Publisher desires to use any trademark, service mark, trade
name or domain name that is confusingly similar to a Licensed Mark or Domain Name or any word, symbol, character, or set of words, symbols or characters, which in any language would be identified as substantially or materially the equivalent of a
Licensed Mark or Domain Name, then it shall notify WIN and WIN, in its sole and absolute discretion, shall determine whether to seek a registration for such trademark, service mark, trade name or domain name. 
 (c) Registration of Marks and Domain Names by WIN. WIN shall maintain the federal registration (or applications for registration) of all Licensed
Marks that are registered with (or pending before) the United States Patent and Trademark Office throughout the term of the Agreement, and shall maintain the registrations for the Domain Names. WIN shall bear all costs and expenses relating to the
prosecution of any application or maintenance of any registration filed or issued pursuant to this provision. At the request of WIN, Publisher shall take all reasonable actions necessary to assist with the prosecution of any application under this
provision and the filing of any document or other materials required to maintain any registration for the Licensed Marks and Domain Names. 
 Section 10.9 Termination or Expiration of License. 
 (a) Upon the termination or expiration of the Agreement, all
rights granted to Publisher under this Agreement in and to the Licensed Marks and Domain Names, together with any interest in and to the Licensed Marks and Domain Names which Publisher may have or may have acquired pursuant to this Agreement or
otherwise, shall forthwith, without further act or instrument, be assigned to and revert to WIN, except as may be necessary in connection with any transition period expressly provided for in this Agreement. Publisher shall execute any reasonable
instruments prepared at the sole expense of and requested by WIN that are necessary to accomplish or confirm the foregoing. 
 (b) Within a
reasonable period after the termination or expiration of the Agreement, Publisher shall destroy all materials in Publisher’s possession which contain the Licensed Marks and cease all further use of the Licensed Marks and Domain Names;
provided, however, that Publisher shall be permitted to produce, publish and distribute Primary Directories and Secondary Directories in print form containing the Licensed Marks and Domain Names which have a Business Office Close Date
preceding the date of the termination or expiration of this Agreement; and provided, further, that Publisher may retain copies of documents containing the Licensed Marks and Domain Names for archival purposes. Publisher acknowledges
and admits that there would be no adequate remedy at law for its failure to cease use of the Licensed Marks upon termination of this Agreement except as specifically provided in the foregoing sentence. Publisher agrees that, in the event of such
failure, WIN will be entitled to equitable relief by the way of temporary, preliminary and permanent injunction, and further relief as any court with jurisdiction may deem just and proper. Publisher agrees to waive the requirement of the posting of
a bond in connection therewith. 
 Section 10.10 Infringement. 
 (a) Notice of Infringement. Publisher shall promptly notify WIN of any actual or potential claim, demand, infringement, misuse or
misappropriation relating to the Licensed 

  

 34 








 
Marks or Domain Names that comes to its attention. WIN may take such action that it determines, in its sole discretion, for the protection of its rights in
and to the Licensed Marks and Domain Names. WIN shall promptly notify Publisher of any infringement of any of the Licensed Marks or Domain Names only in connection with the uses identified in Section 10.1(a) of this Agreement that comes to its
attention. If WIN decides that action should be taken, WIN may take the action either in its own name or, alternatively, WIN may authorize Publisher to initiate the action in WIN’s name, at WIN’s sole cost and expense (but Publisher shall
have no obligation to take any such action). 
 (b) Defense by Publisher. If WIN does not take any action with respect to such actual
or potential claim, demand, infringement, misuse or misappropriation relating to the Licensed Marks or Domain Names in a timely manner, then Publisher may give notice to WIN in writing of its intent to prosecute such action at Publisher’s
expense and Publisher may take such action if, within thirty (30) days after the date of such request, WIN has not taken any action with respect to such actual or potential claim, demand, infringement, misuse or misappropriation. Publisher and
WIN will keep each other apprised of all material developments in such action and will make no settlement of the action that could impair the goodwill or reputation of the business associated with the Licensed Marks or Domain Names without the other
Parties’ prior written consent. In the event that WIN reasonably determines that any action is likely to result in an adverse effect on the enforceability or validity of the Licensed Marks or Domain Names or otherwise prejudice WIN, it shall
promptly notify Publisher and Publisher shall promptly cease further proceedings. 
 (c) Cooperation. WIN and Publisher agree to
cooperate fully with the other Party to whatever extent necessary to prosecute any action with all expenses being borne by the Party bringing the action, or shared equally, if the Parties agree to jointly prosecute the action. 
 (d) Damages. The Party that bears the costs and expenses of any action(s) to enforce a Licensed Mark or Domain Name shall be entitled to all
damages, settlement amounts or other recovery in connection with such action. 
 Section 10.11 Further Protection. At the
reasonable request of WIN and at WIN’s sole expense, Publisher shall execute any papers or documents necessary to protect the rights of WIN in the Licensed Marks and Domain Names and execute and deliver any other documents as may be reasonably
requested by WIN with respect thereto. 
 ARTICLE XI 
 BRANDING 
 Section 11.1 Branding Policies. Publisher will comply in all material
respects with branding specifications and standards set forth in Exhibit G (as modified from time to time in accordance with this Section 11.1, the “Branding Policies”). Exhibit G may be amended by WIN in any reasonable manner upon
thirty (30) days’ advance written notice to Publisher; provided, however, that if any such notice is delivered less than one hundred twenty (120) days prior to the Business Office Close Date for any Primary Directory or printed
Secondary Directory, then the changes effected by such notice shall not become effective as to such Primary Directory until its next publication. WIN agrees to assume all direct costs to Publisher as a result of such change in the Branding Policies
by WIN pursuant to this Section 11.1. 
  

 35 








 Section 11.2 Cover, Spine and Headers; Other Sensitive Areas. During the term of this
Agreement, and unless otherwise expressly agreed to in writing by the Parties, at no cost to WIN: (i) the Licensed Marks will appear clearly and conspicuously on the front cover and spine of each Primary Directory and each printed Secondary
Directory, as well as in comparable prominent locations in any electronic or digital Secondary Directory (including any Internet-based Secondary Directory); (ii) the Licensed Marks shall appear in the header on every other page of each Primary
Directory and each printed Secondary Directory; and (iii) the Domain Name shall appear in the header on every page opposite a page on which the Licensed Marks appear in the header consistent with past practice prior to the Effective Time unless
otherwise agreed by WIN, (a) in the format and style specified in the Branding Policies and (b) in compliance with all other terms of this Agreement (including the Branding Policies and Article X). Publisher shall provide WIN with samples
of the front cover, spine and headers of any Primary Directory or printed Secondary Directory prior to publication for WIN’s approval with respect to the Licensed Marks in accordance with Section 10.7. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any
provision of this Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall the front cover, back cover, inside front cover, inside back cover, spine, page headers, gatefold advertisements or tip-ons of any Primary Directory or printed Secondary Directory, or
comparable prominent locations in any electronic or digital Secondary Directory (including any Internet-based Secondary Directory), contain any marks or advertising of any Communications Competitor without the prior written consent of WIN.

 Section 11.3 Co-Branding. 
 (a) Publisher may co-brand the front covers and spines of the Primary Directories and printed Secondary Directories with any trademark or trade name of Publisher (the “Publisher Marks”);
provided, that except as otherwise specified in this Section 11.3, in all cases the appearance and relative size of the Licensed Marks in conjunction with the Publisher Marks must comply with the co-brand standards set forth in
Exhibit G (the “Co-Brand Standards”). The parties acknowledge and agree that the use of the Licensed Marks in conjunction with the Publisher Marks shall in no way be considered to create any unitary marks and that such uses
shall be deemed combinations of two independent marks merely joined for the sake of co-branding which shall in no way give rights to one (1) party in the other party’s marks other than the licenses granted under this Agreement. 

(b) If Publisher wishes to use the Publisher Marks for a specific graphic use that is outside of the agreed-upon Co-Brand Standards, the Parties will
negotiate in good faith to agree on the standard for such use. Subject to the prior sentence, Publisher may change the actual specific graphic uses of the co-branding of the Publisher Marks and the Licensed Marks, provided that such specific graphic
uses comply with the Branding Policies and the Co-Brand Standards. 
 (c) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, Publisher
may not include on any page that includes, or is adjacent to a page that includes, Licensed Marks (or on any webpage that includes Licensed Marks), any advertising that presents a material risk that WIN may violate a statute, regulation or other
legal obligation or that contravenes the Branding Policies, except, in either case, (x) as required by any Law or Legal Requirement, (y) with WIN’s prior written consent or (z) as required by Publisher in order to avoid a breach
of any contract entered into by Publisher prior to the date of this Agreement. 
  

 36 








 (d) In the event WIN adds any brand or trademark or substitutes any brand or trademark for the Licensed
Marks in WIN’s provision of telephone service in any Service Area, WIN will file U.S. trademark applications to register such new trademarks in its name for at least all of the goods and services permitted to be used by Publisher pursuant to
this Agreement, and, upon first use, such new trademarks will be deemed “Licensed Marks” and will be either added to the Licensed Marks or substituted for certain Licensed Marks, as the case may be. WIN agrees to assume all direct costs to
Publisher as a result of such addition or substitution of any brand or trademark by WIN pursuant to this Section 11.3(d). 
 Section 11.4 Look And Feel. Except as otherwise provided in Sections 4.1(b), 4.7 and 4.8 and this Article XI, Publisher shall have the right to make changes as to the cover design and layout and the other aspects of
“look and feel” of Primary Directories and Secondary Directories subject to WIN’s approval rights pursuant to Section 10.7, provided that such changes are consistent with the Branding Policies and the Co-Brand Standards.

the term of this Agreement and not be required to recall any Primary Directories or Secondary Directories published or that commenced production prior to the end of the term of the Agreement) and for the sole purpose of publishing Directory Products
and soliciting advertising for such Directory Products. Publisher will not use such information in any manner or in any way that: (i) interferes with the proper and efficient furnishing of services by WIN to its customers; (ii) adversely
affects the relationship between WIN and its customers or the public; or (iii) would violate applicable Law. 
 (d) Publisher will not
publish in the Primary Directories or Secondary Directories or otherwise disclose any information (except for distribution purposes and as otherwise permitted by this Agreement) concerning Subscribers included in the Subscriber List Information as
“non-published” or “unlisted” or the like. Publisher will not use the Subscriber List Information to 

  

 37 








 
solicit the Persons identified as such in connection with the sale of advertising in the Primary Directories.

 (c) Except as otherwise permitted by applicable Law, Publisher will use the Subscriber Delivery Information only during the term of the Agreement.
Publisher will not use such information in any manner or in any way that: (i) interferes with the proper and efficient furnishing of services by WIN to its customers; (ii) adversely affects the relationship between WIN and its customers or
the public; or (iii) would violate applicable Law. 
 (d) Publisher will not publish in Primary Directories or Secondary Directories or
otherwise disclose any information (except for distribution purposes and as otherwise permitted by this Agreement) concerning Subscribers included in the Subscriber Delivery Information. Publisher will not use the Subscriber Delivery Information to
solicit the people or entities identified as “non-published” or “unlisted” or the like in connection with the sale of advertising in the Primary Directories or Secondary Directories. 
 (e) WIN will retain the sole right to sell the Subscriber Delivery Information to third parties. 
 (f) The foregoing shall not prohibit Publisher from maintaining its own database of delivery information.

NON-SOLICITATION 
 Section 13.1 Restrictions. Subject to the exclusions, exceptions and limitations expressly set forth
in this Agreement, and with the exception of the L.M. Berry Areas through December 31, 2007, WIN agrees that it will not, and will not act as a sales agent on behalf of, or enter into a joint venture, strategic alliance, product bundling,
revenue sharing or similar arrangement with, a third Person in order to, and will cause its Affiliates not to, publish, 

  

 38 








 
market, sell or distribute any Directory Products, in each case to the extent both: (i) consisting principally of wireline listings and classified
advertisements for Subscribers in the Service Areas or any of Publisher’s independent markets as listed in Exhibit H, as may be updated from time to time upon written consent of both Parties; and (ii) directed primarily at end users
in the Service Areas or any of Publisher’s independent markets as listed in Exhibit H, as may be updated from time to time upon written consent of both Parties (“WIN Restricted Activities”); provided, however, that if the Publishing
Agreement terminates with respect to any Service Area(s), the obligations and restrictions of this Section 13.1 shall no longer apply with respect to such Service Area(s), although such obligations and restrictions shall continue to apply with
respect to the remaining Service Areas. Notwithstanding anything in the foregoing sentence to the contrary (and subject to the provisions of Section 4.13), in the event that WIN or its Affiliates acquires the stock or assets of, or merges or
engages in another business combination with (collectively, an “Acquisition”), any CLEC, ILEC or other Person that, as of the date of such acquisition, publishes, markets, sells or distributes, or acts as a sales agent on behalf of, or is
engaged in a joint venture, strategic alliance, product bundling, revenue sharing or similar arrangement with, any Person to publish, market, sell or distribute Directory Products as set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) above, whether or not
such CLEC, ILEC or other Person is engaged in such activities within an existing Service Area already covered by this Agreement or one of Publisher’s independent markets, then in any such case neither such acquired CLEC, ILEC or other Person,
nor WIN or its Affiliates, shall be deemed to be engaged in WIN Restricted Activities by virtue of the continuing performance by such acquired CLEC, ILEC or other Person of such activities after the date of acquisition, nor as a result of the
performance by WIN or its Affiliates of any pre-existing contract, agreement or arrangement to which WIN becomes subject as a result of such acquisition, and the markets in which such acquired CLEC, ILEC or other Person performs such activities as
of the date of acquisition shall, if applicable, be automatically deemed deleted from Exhibit H upon the effective date of such acquisition; provided that, in the event that Publisher and such acquired CLEC, ILEC or other Person have a contractual
arrangement as of the acquisition date under which Publisher Publishes Directory Products for such acquired CLEC, ILEC or other Person, WIN shall not, and shall cause such acquired ILEC not to, terminate such contractual arrangement prior to the end
of its then-current term other than for cause or by reason of breach on the part of Publisher. 
 Section 13.2 Successor
Restrictions. Subject to the exclusions, exceptions and limitations expressly set forth in this Agreement, following any Change of Control of WIN whereby WIN is no longer directly bound as a Party to this Agreement (e.g., because the Change of
Control is a sale or transfer of assets or is the result of a transaction pursuant to which the successor, surviving or acquiring entity (the “Applicable WIN Successor(s)”) does not automatically succeed to the obligations of such Party by
operation of law) the Applicable WIN Successor(s) will, and WIN agrees to cause such entity to, agree in writing (whether as a provision of the acquisition agreement pursuant to which Publisher is made a third-party beneficiary thereof or in a
separate agreement) to assume the obligations of WIN set forth in this Article XIII on the same terms as are then in effect hereunder. 
 Section 13.3 Exceptions and Limitations. 
 (a) WIN and any Applicable WIN Successors (and their
respective Affiliates) will be deemed not to have engaged in WIN Restricted Activities with respect to 

  

 39 








 
marketing and sales by non-employee sales agents if WIN or any Applicable WIN Successors or their Affiliates use their respective commercially reasonable
efforts, including establishing reasonable procedures, to restrict the activities of their respective agents from engaging in WIN Restricted Activities. 
 (b) Nothing contained in this Agreement shall prohibit WIN or any Applicable WIN Successors (or their respective Affiliates) from publishing or distributing White Pages to the extent required in the event of a
Publishing Order, subject and pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in Section 4.16. 
 (c) Nothing contained in this
Agreement shall restrict any Applicable WIN Successor from continuing to publish, market, sell or distribute (on its own behalf or on behalf of any third Person) Directory Products in those Service Area(s) in the Publisher Region in which it was
conducting any such business at the date of execution of the agreement(s) pursuant to which such Change of Control or disposition transaction occurs. 
 (d) The restrictions in Section 13.1 will cease to apply to any Affiliate of WIN at such time as such entity is no longer an Affiliate of WIN or any Applicable WIN Successor. 
 (e) Nothing contained in this Agreement will prohibit WIN and any such Applicable WIN Successors (in each case together with their respective
Affiliates) from holding and making passive investments in securities of any Person whose securities are publicly traded in a generally recognized market, provided that WIN’s and any Applicable WIN Successors’ respective equity interest
therein does not exceed five percent (5%) of the outstanding shares or interests in such Person and WIN or the Applicable WIN Successors (and their respective Affiliates) have no effective control of the management or policies of such Person.

 (f) Publisher acknowledges and agrees that WIN and any Applicable WIN Successors and their respective Affiliates will have no
restrictions on the publication, marketing, sale or distribution of Directory Products directed principally at end-users in those geographic areas in which Publisher is not WIN’s exclusive official publisher, including those geographic areas in
which WIN becomes the incumbent local exchange carrier after the date of this Agreement as a result of an acquisition of the stock or assets of, or via a merger or other business combination transaction with, the Person previously providing local
phone service in that geographic area as the incumbent local exchange carrier, unless WIN and Publisher have elected to have this Agreement extend to such Service Area, pursuant to Section 4.13. 
 Section 13.4 Non-Solicitation. For a period of two (2) years from the Effective Date, WIN and its Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and
Publisher and its Subsidiaries, on the other hand, will not, without the prior written consent of the other Party, directly or indirectly: (i) solicit for hire any employees of such other Party; (ii) induce any such employee of such other
Party to terminate his or her relationship with such other Party; or (iii) hire any of the other Party’s senior management team. The foregoing will not apply to individuals hired as a result of the use of an independent employment agency
in the ordinary course of business (so long as the agency was not directed to solicit a particular individual) or as a result of the use of a general solicitation (such as a newspaper advertisement or on radio or television) not specifically
directed to employees of any other Party.

 Section 13.5 Remedies. If any breaching Party fails to cure any breach or threatened breach
of this Article XIII after notice thereof and, if applicable, expiration of the cure period contemplated in Section 7.1(a), 7.1(c) or 7.2(a), as applicable, the non-breaching Party will have the following rights and remedies, each of which will
be independent of the other and severally enforceable, and all of which will be in addition to any other rights and remedies available to such Party under this Agreement or applicable Law (except as provided in Section 7.4): 
 (a) Injunctive Relief. Each Party recognizes and agrees that a breach or threatened breach of any of such Party’s obligations pursuant to
this Article XIII, would cause irreparable harm to the other Party and its Affiliates, that such Party’s remedies at law in the event of such breach or threatened breach would be inadequate, and that, accordingly in the event of such breach, a
restraining order or injunction or both may be issued against the breaching Party, in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other right or remedy that may be available to the other Party, without posting any bond or other form of security and without
the necessity of proving actual damages. In connection with any such action or proceeding for injunctive relief, each Party hereby waives the claim or defense that a remedy at law alone is adequate and agrees, to the maximum extent permitted by law,
to have each provision of Article XIII specifically enforced against it if it is the breaching Party, and consents to the entry of injunctive relief against it if it is the breaching Party, enforcing or restraining any breach or threatened breach of
its obligations under this Agreement. 
 (b) Accounting. The right and remedy to require the breaching Party to account for and pay
over to the non-breaching Party direct damages caused by the breaching Party as a result of the actions constituting a breach of such Party’s obligations pursuant to Article XIII. 
 Section 13.6 Acknowledgment. The parties expressly agree that the duration, scope and geographic area of the restrictions set forth in this
Article XIII are reasonable. Each of the parties acknowledges and agrees that the covenants and restrictions above are necessary, fundamental and required for the protection of their respective businesses, that such covenants and restrictions relate
to matters that are of a special, unique and extraordinary value and that the parties would not enter into the Share Exchange Agreement or the transactions contemplated thereby without the protection provided by this Article XIII. 
 Section 13.7 Enforcement. The covenants set forth in this Article XIII will be construed as divided in separate and distinct covenants with
respect to each jurisdiction. If any provision or covenant in this Agreement is more restrictive than permitted by the laws of any jurisdiction in which a Party seeks enforcement hereof, such provision will be limited to the extent required to
permit enforcement under such laws. If, in any proceeding, a court or arbitral panel refuses to enforce any of the separate covenants contained herein, then such unenforceable covenant will be deemed eliminated from this Agreement for the purpose of
those proceedings to the extent necessary to permit the remaining separate covenants to be enforced. 
 Section 13.8 Representation
by Counsel; Interpretation. The Parties each acknowledge that it has been represented by counsel in connection with this Agreement. Accordingly, any rule of law or any legal decision that would require interpretation of any claimed ambiguities
in this Agreement against the Party that drafted it has no application and is expressly waived. The provisions of this Agreement shall be interpreted in a reasonable manner to effect the intent of the Parties.

 ARTICLE XIV 
 MISCELLANEOUS 
 Section 14.1 Confidentiality. 
 (a) The Parties agree to hold all Confidential Information of each other Party in the strictest confidence and will use the Confidential Information of
another Party solely for the purpose of performance of the Parties’ respective obligations and exercise of the Parties’ respective rights under this Agreement unless otherwise authorized in writing by the Party owning such Confidential
Information pursuant to Section 14.1(b). No Party will disclose such Confidential Information of another Party to anyone except (i) its employees, agents, consultants or subcontractors to whom disclosure is necessary for the purposes set
forth in this Agreement or (ii) as required by Law (provided that the Party that is required to make such disclosure will first notify the Party owning the Confidential Information pursuant to Section 14.1(b) of such disclosure
requirement, cooperate with the disclosing Party to obtain a protective order or other confidential treatment, and disclose only that portion of the Confidential Information as is required). Each Party will appropriately notify each employee, agent,
consultant and/or subcontractor to whom it provides Confidential Information of another Party that such disclosure is made in confidence and must be kept in confidence in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 
 (b) All Confidential Information, unless otherwise specified in writing, will remain the property of the disclosing Party. Neither Party shall reproduce
Confidential Information of the other Party except to the extent necessary to accomplish the purpose and intent of this Agreement, or as otherwise may be permitted in writing by the disclosing Party. In the event the disclosing Party grants another
Party permission to copy Confidential Information, the Party seeking such permission agrees that each such copy will contain and state the same confidential or proprietary notices or legends, if any, that appear on the original. Except as otherwise
specifically provided in this Agreement, nothing in this Agreement will be construed as granting any right or license under any copyrights, inventions, patents or other intellectual property now or hereafter owned. 
 Section 14.2 Further Assurances. Each Party will take such other actions as the other Party may reasonably request or as may be necessary or
appropriate to consummate or implement the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or to evidence such events or matters. 
 Section 14.3 No Agency; Right to Subcontract 
 (a) Nothing in this Agreement or in any other document related to this
transaction, and no action of or inaction by either of the Parties hereto will be deemed or construed to constitute an agency relationship between the Parties hereto. Each Party is acting independently of the other and no Party has the authority to
act on behalf of or bind any other Party. 
 (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Publisher will be permitted, at
any time and from time to time, to carry out or otherwise fulfill its Publishing Obligations hereunder through one (1) or more agents, subcontractors or other representatives, each engaged with due care and required to be experienced, capable
and of similar quality as Publisher; provided that in any event Publisher will remain liable for such obligations hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Publisher will not have the right to sublicense any Licensed Marks, Domain Names or
other intellectual property rights granted under this Agreement.

 Section 14.4 Governing Laws. This Agreement and the legal relations between the Parties will
be governed by and construed in accordance with the Laws of the State of Delaware applicable to contracts made and performed in such State and without regard to conflicts of law doctrines unless certain matters are preempted by federal law.

 Section 14.5 Jurisdiction, Waiver of Jury Trial 
 (a) Each Party hereby agrees and consents to be subject to the jurisdiction of any state or federal court having jurisdiction over the matter situated
in Dallas, Texas, in any suit, action or proceeding seeking to enforce any provision of, or based on any matter arising out of or in connection with, this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. Each Party hereby irrevocably consents to
the service of any and all process in any such suit, action or proceeding by the delivery of such process to such Party at the address and in the manner provided in Section 14.8. Each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally waives
any objection to the laying of venue of any action, suit or proceeding arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby in any state or federal court having jurisdiction over the matter situated in Dallas, Texas, and hereby
further irrevocably and unconditionally waives and agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that any such action, suit or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. 
 (b) EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES,
AND THEREFORE EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, OR THE BREACH, TERMINATION OR
VALIDITY OF THIS AGREEMENT, OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT. EACH PARTY CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (i) NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER
PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER, (ii) EACH SUCH PARTY UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF THIS WAIVER, (iii) EACH SUCH PARTY MAKES THIS WAIVER VOLUNTARILY, AND (iv) EACH
SUCH PARTY HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 14.5(b). 
 Section 14.6 Amendments; Waivers. Except as expressly provided herein, this Agreement and any attached Exhibit may be amended only by agreement in writing of the Parties. No waiver of any provision nor consent to any exception
to the terms of this Agreement or any agreement contemplated hereby will be effective unless in writing and signed by both Parties and then only to the specific purpose, extent and instance so provided. No failure on the part of a Party to exercise
or delay in exercising any right hereunder will be deemed a waiver thereof, nor will any single or partial exercise preclude any further or other exercise of such or any other right. 
 Section 14.7 No Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any rights or obligations hereunder are assignable by one Party without the express
prior written consent of the other Party; provided, however, that (i) a Party may assign this Agreement to any of its Affiliates upon written notice to the other Party but without the consent of the other Party if the 

  

 43 








 
assigning Party requires such Affiliate to agree in writing to assume this Agreement as then in effect and the assigning Party remains liable for its
obligations hereunder; (ii) a Change of Control of a Party hereto will not be deemed to be an assignment of this Agreement, provided that if the relevant Party is no longer directly bound as a Party to this Agreement (e.g., because the Change
of Control is a sale or transfer of assets or is the result of a transaction pursuant to which the successor, surviving or acquiring entity does not automatically succeed to the obligations of such Party by operation of law), the successor,
surviving or acquiring entity is required to agree in writing (whether as a provision of the acquisition agreement pursuant to which the other Party is made a third-party beneficiary hereof or in a separate agreement) to assume this Agreement under
substantially similar terms as the Agreement as then in effect; (iii) WIN may assign its rights and obligations under it to any acquiring Person contemplated in Section 4.13; (iv) Publisher and WIN may each assign this Agreement and
their respective rights and obligations under it to their respective lenders for collateral security purposes, so long as Publisher or WIN, as applicable, remains liable for its obligations hereunder; and (v) Publisher may assign this Agreement
as to the Primary Directories with respect to a particular Service Area or Service Areas to any Person (other than an Affiliate of Publisher) upon written notice to WIN so long as the aggregate number of such assignees does not exceed five
(5) and Publisher requires the acquiring Person to agree in writing to assume this Agreement with respect to such Service Area(s) on substantially similar terms as are then in effect under this Agreement, and upon such assignment Publisher will
have no rights or obligations under this Agreement with respect to such Service Area(s). 
 Section 14.8 Notices. All notices,
demands and other communications to be given or delivered under or by reason of the provisions of this Agreement will be in writing and will be deemed to have been given: (i) immediately when personally delivered; (ii) when received by
