acknowledgments and agreements herein, by accepting this Option A, Pegasus hereby (i) acknowledges that each of the Member Agreements have been terminated as of the Closing Date and (ii) acknowledges that it shall no longer possess an exclusive

provided, however, that such payment amount is based on the assumption that the Closing Date occurs on June 30, 2004. In the event that the Closing Date occurs after June 30, 2004, the aggregate amount that DIRECTV shall pay and Pegasus shall
receive will be reduced based on the number of weeks elapsed past June 30, 2004 (with a reduction of $2.88 per Transferred Subscriber per week for each week elapsed). 
  
 Appropriate adjustments to monthly payments shall be made for (i) accounts receivable from Transferred Subscribers to
Pegasus in existence as of the Closing Date, (ii) any accounts receivable pursuant to the Pegasus/DIRECTV Revised Seamless Consumer Program, (iii) payments owing from Pegasus to NRTC as of the Closing Date pursuant to the Member Agreements, (iv) any

Buyout Monthly Payment.

acknowledgments and agreements herein, by accepting this Option B, Pegasus hereby (i) acknowledges that each of the Member Agreements have been terminated as of the Closing Date and (ii) acknowledges that it shall no longer possess an exclusive
territory.

transactions described in this Agreement (the “Transactions”) shall become effective shall be the date that is the later to occur of (i) the date which DIRECTV notifies Pegasus in writing that DIRECTV is prepared to close as

	 	(a)	Authority. DIRECTV and Pegasus each represent and warrant to the other that it has all requisite power and authority (i) to execute, deliver and perform this Agreement

property and assets; and (iii) to carry on its business as presently conducted. Pegasus represents and warrants to DIRECTV that the parties signatory to this Agreement (other than DIRECTV and NRTC) constitute all of the Pegasus entities,

	 	(b)	Litigation. DIRECTV and Pegasus each represent and warrant to the other that, to the best of its knowledge, there is no outstanding or threatened judgment, threatened or
pending litigation or proceeding, involving or affecting the transactions provided for in, or contemplated by, this Agreement, except as has been previously disclosed in writing by either party to the other. 

  

	 	(c)	Laws. DIRECTV and Pegasus each shall comply with all FCC and other governmental (whether international, federal, state, municipal or otherwise) statutes, laws, rules,

	 	(a)	Pegasus, on behalf of itself and its predecessors, successors, assigns, subsidiaries, divisions, affiliates, directors, officers and any person or entity claiming by, through, under
it or on its behalf, or which is acting in concert with it (collectively, the “Pegasus Releasees”), hereby releases and forever discharges (the “General Release”), as of the Closing Date, each of (i) DIRECTV and its
subsidiaries and affiliates and all present and former directors, officers, agents, representatives, employees, successors and assigns of DIRECTV and its affiliates and DIRECTV’s direct or indirect owners and (ii) NRTC and its subsidiaries and

Parties which Pegasus or any of its successors or assigns may have, including without limitation, which arise from either the Member Agreements, from the termination thereof in connection with the Offer or relating to dealings between NRTC and
Pegasus (in each case, including, but not limited to, any allegation, claim or violation, arising under any local, state, or federal law, regulation or ordinance; or under any public policy, contract or tort, or under common law; or arising under
any policies, practices or procedures of the Released Parties; or any claim for breach of contract (both express and implied), breach of a covenant of good faith and fair dealing (both express and implied), 

  

 6 








 negligent or intentional misrepresentation, negligent or intentional interference with contract or
prospective economic advantage; or any claim for costs, fees, or other expenses, including attorneys’ fees incurred in these matters) (all of the foregoing collectively referred to herein as the “Claims”). 
  

	 	(b)	Pegasus hereby acknowledges that (i) any payments or benefits paid or granted to it pursuant to the Offer represent, in part, consideration for making this General Release and (ii)
it will not receive any payments or benefits pursuant to the terms of the Offer unless its makes this General Release. 

  

	 	(c)	Pegasus hereby represents that it has not made any assignment or transfer of any right, claim, demand, cause of action, or other matter covered by Section 7(a) above.


  

	 	(d)	In making this General Release, Pegasus acknowledges and intends that it shall be effective as a bar to each and every one of the Claims hereinabove mentioned or implied. Pegasus
expressly consents that this General Release shall be given full force and effect according to each and all of its express terms and provisions, including those relating to unknown and unsuspected Claims (notwithstanding any state statute that
expressly limits the effectiveness of a general release of unknown, unsuspected and unanticipated Claims), if any, as well as those relating to any other Claims hereinabove mentioned or implied. Pegasus acknowledges and agrees that this waiver is an
essential and material term of this General Release. Pegasus further agrees that in the event it should bring a Claim seeking damages against any of the Released Parties, this General Release shall serve as a complete defense to such Claims. Pegasus

GENERAL RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR.” 
  

 7

rights and benefits it may have thereunder, as well as under any similar law or common law principle of similar effect of any state or territory of the United States with respect to the Claims released hereby. 
  

	 	(f)	Pegasus agrees that neither this General Release, nor the furnishing of the consideration for this General Release, shall be deemed or construed at any time to be an admission by
DIRECTV, NRTC, any Released Party or Pegasus of any improper or unlawful conduct. 

  

	 	(g)	Whenever possible, each provision of this General Release shall be interpreted in, such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this
General Release is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable law or rule in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision or any other jurisdiction, but
this General Release shall be reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein. 

  

	8.	Assignment. Pegasus hereby assigns to DIRECTV all its present and future right, title and interest in, under and with respect to all of its tangible and intangible rights and
assets under the Member Agreements (including, without limitation, ownership and propriety interests in all subscribers to DIRECTV services and all lists of such subscribers).

agreed and understood that the marketing or sale solely of WildBlue broadband internet services shall not be considered a violation of the non-competition provisions in this Section 9. 

  

	10.	Post-Closing Adjustments. Pegasus hereby agrees that it is obligated to refund to DIRECTV all amounts received by Pegasus in respect of subscribers that no longer meet the
Transferred Subscriber requirements ninety (90) days after the Closing Date.

of California. 

  

	14.	Entire Agreement; Amendment. This Agreement (including the applicable Annexes and Schedules attached hereto and incorporated by reference herein) constitutes the entire
agreement among the parties and supersedes all previous understandings, commitments and representations concerning the subject matter. This Agreement may not be amended or modified in any way, except (i) as provided in the Agreement or (ii) by a
writing signed by an authorized officer of the party against whom the amendment, modification or waiver is sought to be enforced. 

  

	15.	Severability. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed to require the commission of any act contrary to law. Wherever there is any conflict between any
provision of this Agreement and any law, the law shall prevail and this Agreement shall be limited only to the extent necessary to permit compliance with the minimum legal requirements. No other provisions of this Agreement shall be affected and all
other provisions shall continue in full force and effect. 

  

	16.	Third-Party Beneficiary. The provisions of this Agreement are solely for the benefit of the parties hereto and are not intended to confer upon any person except the parties
hereto any rights to enforce, benefit from or have any other rights or remedies hereunder, and there are no third-party beneficiaries of this Agreement and this Agreement shall not provide any third party with any remedy, claim, liability,
reimbursement, cause of action, claim of action or other right in excess of those existing without reference to this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything in the foregoing to the contrary, it is expressly agreed and understood that NRTC (solely for
the purposes of receiving and enforcing the General Release) and any other person or entity described generally in Section 7(a)(ii) above is an intended third party beneficiary of Section 7. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, no other
persons or parties are intended as beneficiaries of this Agreement and none shall have rights to enforce or benefit from the provisions of this Agreement. DIRECTV and Pegasus acknowledge and agree that NRTC is not a party to this Agreement and is
not bound by or liable to DIRECTV or Pegasus under the provisions of this Agreement. 

  

	17.	NRTC Consent to Offer. NRTC consents to this Offer to Pegasus by DIRECTV, and to the right of Pegasus to enter into this Agreement with DIRECTV, notwithstanding NRTC’s
rights under and with respect to the Member Agreements prior to their termination. NRTC executes this Offer and the Agreement for the purpose, inter alia, of obtaining the General Release set forth above and the promise of Pegasus to pay amounts
that may be due to NRTC under the Member Agreements or otherwise.

 EXHIBIT I TO PEGASUS OFFER AGREEMENT 
  
 DETERMINING HART-SCOTT-RODINO REPORTABILITY1 
  
 As a general matter, the Act and the Rules require both acquiring and acquired persons to file notifications under the Program if all of the following conditions are met: 
  

	 	a.	One person has sales or assets of at least $100 million; 

  

	 	b.	The other person has sales or assets of at least $10 million; and 

  

	 	c.	As a result of the transaction, the acquiring person will hold an aggregate amount of stock and assets of the acquired person valued at more than $50 million; or


  

	 	d.	As a result of the transaction, the acquiring person will hold an aggregate amount of stock and assets of the acquired person valued at more than $200 million, regardless of the
sales or assets of the acquiring and acquired persons.2 

  

	 	A.	Acquiring and Acquired Persons/Acquired Entity 

  
 The first step in determining reportability is to identify who the “acquiring person” and “acquired person” are. “Person” is defined in
Rules 801.1 (a)(l) and is the “ultimate parent entity” or “UPE” of the buyer or seller. That is, it is the entity that ultimately controls the buyer or seller.3 The
“acquired entity” is the specific entity whose assets or voting securities are being acquired. The acquired entity may also be its own UPE or it may be an entity within the acquired person. 
  
 Thus, in an asset acquisition, the acquiring person is the UPE of the buyer, and the acquired
person is the UPE of the seller. The acquired entity is the entity whose assets are being acquired. 
  

	 	B.	Size-of-Person Test 

  
 Once you have determined who the acquiring and acquired persons are, you must determine whether the size of each person meets the Act’s minimum size criteria. This “size of person” test generally
measures a company based on the person’s last regularly prepared annual statement of income and expenses and its last regularly prepared balance sheet.4 The
size of a person includes not only the entity that is making the acquisition or whose assets or securities are being acquired, but also the UPE and any other entities the UPE controls.5

	 	C.	Size-of-Transaction Test 

  
 The next step is to determine what voting securities, assets, or combination of voting securities and assets are being transferred in the proposed transaction. Then you
must determine the value of the voting securities and/or assets as well as the percentage of voting securities that will be “held as a result of the transaction.” Calculating what will be held as a result of the transaction (referred to as
the “size of the transaction”) is complicated and requires the application of several rules, including Rules 801.10, 801.12, 801.13, 801.14 and 801.15. Assets held as a result of the transaction include those that will be transferred in
the proposed transaction as well as certain assets of the acquired person that the acquiring person has purchased within the time limits outlined in Rule 801.13. 
  
 Once it has been determined that a particular transaction is reportable, each party must submit its notification to the FTC and the DOJ. In
addition, each acquiring person must pay a filing fee to the FTC for each transaction that it reports.
