REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF SELLERS


The Sellers hereby jointly and severally represent and warrant to Purchaser that the statements contained in this Article 3 are true and correct as of the date of this Agreement (unless otherwise indicated in such representation):
Section 3.1    Organization and Authority


Richmond 20 is a Delaware limited liability company and NTELOS is a Virginia corporation, each is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of its organization, and each has all requisite power and authority, and has taken all action necessary in order to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under this Agreement.  This Agreement is a legal, valid and binding obligation of each Seller, enforceable against each Seller in accordance with its terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws of general applicability relating to or affecting creditors’ rights and to general equity principles.  Neither the execution, delivery and performance by Sellers of this Agreement nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereunder will (a) conflict with, or result in a breach or violation of, any provision of either Seller’s organizational agreements or filings; (b) constitute, with or without the giving of notice or passage of time or both, a breach, violation or default, create a Lien, or give rise to any right of termination, modification, cancellation, prepayment or acceleration, under (i) any Law or Operating License or (ii) any note, bond, mortgage, indenture, lease, agreement or other instrument, in each case which is applicable to or binding upon either Seller or its assets; or (c) require any Consent, other than the FCC consent contemplated in Section 5.2(b) except, in the case of clauses (b) and (c), where such breach, violation, default, Lien, right, or the failure to obtain or give such 

5






Consent would not materially adversely affect the transactions contemplated hereunder, any Seller’s ability to perform its obligations under this Agreement, or the value of the Licenses to Purchaser.
Section 3.2    Licenses


(a)    Sellers have good and marketable title to the Licenses.  No person or entity, other than Sellers, has any right, claim or interest in or to the Licenses.  The Licenses have been duly and validly issued by the FCC in the name of the applicable Seller, are in full force and effect and have been granted to Sellers by Final Order, are validly held by Sellers and are free and clear of conditions or restrictions, other than those appearing on their face and those routinely imposed in conjunction with FCC licenses of a similar type.  The Licenses are free and clear of all Liens.
(b)    None of the spectrum covered by the Licenses is subject to any lease or other agreement or arrangement with any third party, including any agreement giving any third party any right to use such spectrum.
(c)    There are no existing applications, petitions to deny or complaints or proceedings pending or, to Sellers’ knowledge, threatened, before the FCC or any other tribunal, Governmental Authority or regulatory agency relating to the Licenses or which otherwise will or could reasonably be expected to materially adversely affect the Licenses, other than proceedings affecting the wireless telecommunications industry or PCS licenses or licensees generally.  No Governmental Authority or regulatory agency has, to Sellers’ knowledge, threatened to terminate or suspend the Licenses.  There are no third party claims of any kind that have been asserted with respect to the Licenses.  Neither Seller is in violation or default, nor has it received any notice of any claim of violation or default, with respect to the Licenses.  No event has occurred with respect to the Licenses that permits, or after notice or lapse of time or both would permit, revocation or termination of any of the Licenses or that will or would reasonably be expected to result in any violation or default, claim of violation or default or impairment of the rights of the holder of the Licenses.  
(d)    The Licenses are held solely by the applicable Seller.  No shareholder, officer, employee or former employee of either Seller or any Affiliate thereof, or any other Person, holds or has any proprietary, financial or other interest (direct or indirect) in, or any authority to use, or any other right or claim in or to, the Licenses.
(e)    No amounts (including installment payments consisting of principal and/or interest or late payment fees) are due to the FCC or the United States Department of the Treasury in respect of the Licenses, and Sellers did not receive any bidding credits within the last five years in connection with the Licenses.  The consummation of the transaction contemplated hereunder will not cause the FCC to impose any unjust enrichment penalties pursuant to 47 C.F.R. §1.2111.
(f)    Neither Seller has reason to believe that the Licenses will not be renewed in the ordinary course.  No Seller is aware of any basis for any application, action, petition, objection or other pleading, or for any proceeding with the FCC or any other Governmental Authority (other than proceedings affecting the wireless telecommunications industry or PCS licenses or licensees generally), which (i) questions or contests the validity of, or seeks the revocation, forfeiture, non-renewal or suspension of, the Licenses, (ii) seeks the imposition of any modification or amendment with respect to the Licenses, (iii) seeks the payment of a fine, sanction, penalty, damages or contribution in connection with the use of the Licenses, or (iv) in any other way will or could reasonably be expected to materially adversely affect the Licenses.  
(g)    There are no liabilities of either Seller or any Affiliate thereof (whether matured or unmatured, direct or indirect, or absolute, contingent or otherwise), whether related to, associated with, or attached to, 

6






the Licenses or otherwise to which Purchaser or any of their Affiliates will be subject from and after the Closing as a result of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby. 
(h)    All material reports and applications required by the Communications Act or required to be filed with the FCC by Sellers have been filed.  Neither Seller has made any misstatements of fact, or omitted to disclose any fact, to any Governmental Body or in any report, document or certificate filed therewith, which misstatements or omissions, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to subject either of the Licenses to revocation, failure to renew or adverse modification or to subject Purchaser, following Closing, to any liability, loss or obligation relating to the Licenses.  Neither Seller has incurred (or Sellers have fully discharged) any FCC fine, charge or other liability resulting from any noncompliance prior to the Closing with respect to the FCC Rules or other Laws relating to the Licenses, and all amounts owed to the FCC in connection with the Licenses have been timely paid, including, but not limited to, annual regulatory fee payments.  The Licenses are not subject to any conditions other than those appearing on the face of the Licenses and those imposed by the FCC Rules upon the wireless communications services industry generally or upon PCS licenses or licensees generally.  There are no obligations to make any payments to the FCC associated with the Licenses, nor will the consummation of the transaction contemplated hereby cause the FCC to require any Party or any of its Affiliates to refund to the FCC all or any portion of any bidding credit that any Seller or any of its past or current Affiliates received from the FCC in connection with the Licenses. 
(i)    Each Seller and each Affiliate thereof is in compliance in all material respects with, and is not in violation in any material respect of, any Law applicable to the Licenses to which any of them is subject, including all pertinent aspects of the FCC Rules and other Laws, including (i) the FCC Rules pertaining to eligibility to hold PCS licenses in general, and the Licenses in particular, and (ii) the FCC Rules restricting foreign ownership of radio licenses.  Each Seller is in material compliance with all terms and conditions of, and all of its obligations under, the Licenses.
(j)    Neither Seller has failed to satisfy any FCC buildout requirements relating to the Licenses by the deadline prescribed therefor.  
(k)    Each Seller (or its Affiliates) (i) has performed all of its obligations under any microwave relocation agreements with any incumbent microwave licensee in respect of either of the Licenses; and (ii) has not taken any action with respect to either of the Licenses that could give rise to any obligation of Purchaser to relocate any incumbent microwave licensee from any microwave path(s), or to share in the cost of such relocation, regardless of whether or not such Seller (or its Affiliates) have negotiated a microwave relocation agreement with such incumbent microwave licensee.
Section 3.3    Litigation


There are no civil, criminal or administrative claims, actions, suits, demands, arbitrations, proceedings or investigations pending or, to the knowledge of either Seller, threatened against either Seller or any Affiliate of either Seller relating to the Licenses, at law, in equity or otherwise, in, before, or by, any court, Governmental Authority, arbitrator or other governmental or regulatory official, body or authority that would reasonably be expected to adversely affect the Licenses or that seeks to enjoin this Agreement or the transaction contemplated hereby or otherwise prevent Sellers from performing their obligations under this Agreement or consummating the transaction contemplated hereby.  There is no judgment, decree, injunction, rule, order, writ, decree or award of any court, Governmental Authority, arbitrator or other governmental or regulatory official, body or authority outstanding against either Seller or any Affiliate of either Seller relating to or involving the Licenses, and there are no unsatisfied judgments against either Seller or any of its Affiliates with respect to the Licenses that would have a material adverse effect on the Licenses or Sellers’ ability to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 3.4    Brokers


Sellers have engaged UBS Securities and Stephens Inc. to provide professional services for these transactions and are responsible for any fees, commissions or other payments in connection therewith (and Purchaser shall have no liability therefor).

Whether or not Closing occurs, all costs and 

13






expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereunder shall be paid by the Party incurring such expenses.

(a)    Notwithstanding any provisions of this Article 8 to the contrary, each of the Parties acknowledges and agrees that the Licenses are unique and that, prior to and following the Closing, remedies at law, including monetary damages, will be inadequate in the event of a breach by it in the performance of its obligations under this Agreement.  Accordingly, the Parties agree that in the event of any such breach, the non-breaching Party shall (subject to any defenses available to the breaching Party other than the possible adequacy of remedies at law) be entitled to a decree of specific performance pursuant to which the breaching Party is ordered to affirmatively carry out its pre-closing obligations under this Agreement, subject to the conditions of this Agreement.  The foregoing shall not be deemed to be or construed as a waiver or election of remedies by the non-breaching Party and the non-breaching Party expressly reserves any and all rights 

14






and remedies available to the non-breaching Party at law or in equity in the event of any breach or default by the breaching Party under this Agreement.


(b)    In no event shall either Party be liable for indirect, special, consequential or punitive damages arising out of a breach of this Agreement, even if advised at the time of breach of the possibility of such damages, except where the damages are awarded to a third party by final, non-appealable order in a claim or action against which a Party to this Agreement has a specific obligation to indemnify the other Party to this Agreement.

EXHIBIT B


Form of Short Term De Facto Transfer Lease


This Short-Term De Facto Transfer Spectrum Lease Agreement (“Lease Agreement”) is entered into as of [INSERT CLOSING DATE OF LPA] (the “Effective Date”) between T‐Mobile License LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Lessor”), and each of  Richmond 20 MHz, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Richmond 20”), and NTELOS Inc., a Virginia corporation (“NTELOS” and, together with Richmond 20, “Lessees” and each a “Lessee”) (collectively the “Parties” or, individually, a “Party” and, as the context requires (i.e., when the applicable provision describes a two-party relationship or interaction), Lessor shall be deemed to be a single Party and Lessees, collectively, shall be deemed to be the other Party).  All capitalized terms that are not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning specified in that certain License Purchase Agreement among the Parties, dated as of December 1, 2014 (the “License Purchase Agreement”),


R E C I T A L S:


WHEREAS, upon consummation the license assignments contemplated by the License Purchase Agreement, Lessor will hold the Personal Communications Services (“PCS”) licenses granted by the Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”) and described in Exhibit A attached hereto (the “FCC Licenses”); 


WHEREAS, Lessor and Lessees have agreed to enter into this Lease Agreement in order: (i) to grant Lessees the right to continue to use the spectrum associated  with the FCC Licenses (the “Leased Spectrum”); (ii) to establish the terms under which Lessees will operate facilities utilizing the Leased Spectrum; and (iii) to memorialize the respective rights and responsibilities of Lessor and Lessees with respect to use of the Leased Spectrum consistent with the Communications Act of 1934, as amended and the rules, regulations and policies of the FCC (collectively the “Communications Laws”) and the terms and conditions set forth herein; and
WHEREAS the FCC has consented to the leasing of the Leased Spectrum contemplated by this Lease Agreement and such consent is in full force and effect as of the date hereof.
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises contained herein, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the Parties hereby agree as follows:


		
	1.
	Agreement to Lease.  




		
	a.
	Spectrum Usage Rights.  Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, and subject to the FCC consent to the leasing arrangement created hereby, Lessor hereby grants to the Lessee designated in the second column of Exhibit A the exclusive right to use the applicable portion of the Leased Spectrum throughout the applicable Term (as defined below) (collectively, the “Spectrum Usage Rights”).  The Spectrum Usage Rights granted hereunder are intended to and do convey de facto control over the Leased Spectrum to Lessees, and the right to take all actions that each Lessee deems necessary or desirable in the operation of its business during the Term.  The Parties intend this Lease Agreement to create a short-term de facto transfer leasing arrangement within the meaning of Section 1.9035 of the FCC’s Rules (47 C.F.R. § 1.9035).  The spectrum leasing arrangement created hereby is not an assignment, sale, or transfer of the FCC Licenses.  Neither Lessee shall hold itself out to the public as the holder of the FCC 









Licenses and shall not hold itself out as an FCC licensee by virtue of its having entered into the spectrum leasing arrangement created hereby.


		
	b.
	Permitted Use/Regulatory Classification.  The Spectrum Usage Rights granted hereunder convey to Lessees the right to use the Leased Spectrum, so long as such use or services are not currently or hereafter prohibited under the terms and conditions of the FCC Licenses or the Communications Laws.  Consistent with this objective and except as otherwise set forth herein, the Spectrum Usage Rights granted to Lessees include the right and obligation to take all actions that either Lessee deems necessary or desirable to construct, test, maintain, and operate a wireless system on the applicable Leased Spectrum in accordance with the Communications Laws.




		
	c.
	Exclusivity.  Throughout the Term, each Lessee will have the exclusive right to use the applicable Leased Spectrum and exercise the associated Spectrum Usage Rights granted herein, and Lessor will not enter into any other agreement (including any agreement for the lease, partition, disaggregation, underlay use, time sharing or similar document) with respect to the Leased Spectrum; provided, however, that nothing in this Paragraph 1(c) is intended to, or shall restrict or prohibit Lessor’s rights to transfer, sell, assign or encumber the FCC Licenses, as a whole, subject only to Lessee’s rights under this Lease Agreement.




		
	2.
	Obligations of Lessees.




		
	a.
	General Obligations.  During the Term of this Lease Agreement, each Lessee shall be obligated to:




		
	i.
	comply with the Communications Laws in operating wireless telecommunications facilities using the Leased Spectrum;


		
	ii.
	satisfy all of the requirements imposed on lessees under short-term de facto leasing arrangements under Section 1.9035 of the FCC’s Rules, including those relating to responsibility for interactions with the FCC; 


		
	iii.
	cooperate to address any interference-related matters arising from operation of any wireless systems using the Leased Spectrum; and


		
	iv.
	promptly notify Lessor in writing in the event of any material violation of the Communications Laws, or of the initiation of any litigation, investigation, proceeding or inquiry with regard to such Lessee or any of its Leased Spectrum by the FCC or any other governmental authority which, if adversely determined, could reasonably be expected to have a materially adverse impact on any of such Leased Spectrum.  In the event that the FCC or other governmental authority initiates an investigation or inquiry concerning either Lessee in connection with this Lease Agreement, the Leased Spectrum or any of such Lessee’s actions or operations hereunder, such Lessee will cooperate with Lessor, the FCC, or other governmental authority.




		
	b.
	No Liens on Leased Spectrum.  Lessees shall keep the Leased Spectrum free and clear of all Liens and shall pay all assessments, filing or recording fees, documentary stamp taxes, sales taxes, use taxes, personal property taxes, excise taxes, including value added taxes, and all other federal, state or local taxes (apart from any taxes on the overall net income or the overall net capital gains of Lessor) which may now or hereafter be imposed on or with respect to the leasing, rental, possession, use or 



B-2






operation of the Leased Spectrum by the Lessees, whether assessed to Lessor or Lessees.  Lessees will promptly notify Lessor of any Lien asserted against the FCC Licenses or the Leased Spectrum during the Term.  For the purposes of this Section, the term “Lien” shall mean any charge, claim, encumbrance, lien, pledge, security interest or right of others with respect to the Leased Spectrum. 


		
	3.
	Obligations of Lessor.




Lessor shall be obligated to maintain the validity and good standing of the FCC Licenses in full force and effect throughout the applicable Term.  Lessor will promptly notify Lessees of the occurrence of litigation, investigation, proceeding or inquiry that may be initiated against the Lessor by the FCC or any governmental body which, if adversely determined, could reasonably be expected to have a material impact on or result in a material change to the FCC Licenses, or could reasonably be expected to have an material impact on Lessees’ ability to utilize the Leased Spectrum.  In the event that the FCC or other governmental body initiates an investigation or inquiry concerning Lessor in connection with this Lease Agreement or the FCC Licenses or any of Lessor’s performance rendered hereunder, Lessor will cooperate with Lessees, the FCC, or other governmental body.
		
	4.
	  Control. 




The Parties expressly acknowledge that this Lease Agreement is designed to transfer de facto, but not de jure, control of the Leased Spectrum to Lessees under the FCC Rules, in accordance with Sections 1.9010 and 1.9035 of the FCC’s Rules (47 C.F.R. §§ 1.9010, 1.9035).  This Lease Agreement (i) does not and will not vest in Lessees, or constitute, create or have the effect of constituting or creating, de jure control, direct or indirect, over Lessor or the FCC Licenses, which ownership or control remains exclusively and at all times in the Lessor and (ii) does not and will not constitute the transfer, assignment, or disposition in any manner, voluntary or involuntary, directly or indirectly, of the FCC Licenses or the transfer of control of the Lessor within the meaning of Section 310(d) of the FCC Rules other than for spectrum leasing purposes.  During the Term, neither Lessee will take any action inconsistent with or contrary to the Lessor’s de jure control, as that term is construed by the FCC, over the FCC Licenses.  During the Term, neither Lessee will hold itself out to the public as the holder of the FCC License.
		
	5.
	Term; Termination.




		
	a.
	Term.  Unless otherwise earlier terminated in accordance with this Lease Agreement, the rights and obligations created under this Lease Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date and expire:  (i) for the lease of the B4 spectral portion of License WPQL333 (1875-1880 and 1955-1960 MHz) to Richmond 20, on the later of June 30, 2015 or thirty (30) days from the Effective Date (or such lesser period of days as determined by Richmond 20 prior to Closing); (ii) for the lease of License KNLG676 to NTELOS, on the later of June 30, 2015 or thirty (30) days from the Effective Date (or such lesser period of days as determined by NTELOS prior to Closing); and (iii) for the lease of the B3 spectral portion of License WPQL333 (1870-1875 and 1950-1955 MHz) to Richmond 20, on the later of November 15, 2015 or thirty (30) days from the Effective Date (or such lesser period of days as determined by Richmond 20 prior to Closing) (each such period, a “Term”).  Lessees shall not have any rights to renew this lease or to hold over and continue using the Leased Spectrum for any period of time after the end of the applicable Term.





B-3






		
	b.
	Termination Due to a Party’s Default.  At the option of a non-defaulting Party, this Lease Agreement may be terminated upon the material breach or default by the other Party of its duties and obligations hereunder if such breach or default shall continue for a period of thirty (30) consecutive days after such Party's receipt of written notice thereof from the non-defaulting Party.




		
	c.
	Termination Due to FCC Action or Inaction.  With respect to the portion of the Leased Spectrum authorized under either of the FCC Licenses, this Lease Agreement shall terminate automatically with respect to such spectrum upon any order of the FCC revoking, canceling, or terminating either of the FCC Licenses or the applicable Lessee’s rights hereunder.




		
	d.
	Effect of Termination.  Upon termination of this Lease Agreement in whole or with respect to a portion of the Leased Spectrum, all of Lessees’ right, title and interest in and to that portion of the Leased Spectrum with respect to which this Lease Agreement has terminated shall automatically revert to Lessor, and the applicable Parties shall have no further obligations to each other hereunder in respect of such FCC License or Leased Spectrum, provided, that termination shall not relieve the Parties of liability for breach hereof.  In the event of termination of this Lease Agreement prior to the stated expiration date, Lessor shall notify the FCC within ten days thereafter.




		
	6.
	Consideration.




		
	a.

	Representations and Warranties.




		
	a.
	Representations of Both Parties.  Each Party represents that (i) it is duly organized and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization; (ii) its execution and delivery of this Lease Agreement, and the performance of its obligations hereunder, have been duly authorized by all requisite action; (iii) it has duly executed and delivered this Lease Agreement; (iv) this Lease Agreement constitutes its valid and binding agreement, enforceable against such party in accordance with its terms; (v) its execution and delivery of this Lease Agreement, and the performance of its obligations hereunder, do not and will not (1) violate or conflict with, or result in a breach or default under, (2) entitle any Person to modify, accelerate or terminate any rights, remedies or other provisions of, or (3) require the consent or approval of, or any notice to or filing with, any Person (other than the FCC) under, (x) the constituent documents of such party, (y) any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree to which such party or its assets are subject or (z) any instrument, agreement, arrangement or understanding by which such party is bound; (vi) there are no actions, claims or other proceedings pending or, to the knowledge of such party, threatened against such party that seek to delay or enjoin the transactions contemplated hereby; and (vii) it satisfies the eligibility and qualification requirements applicable to a holder of the FCC Licenses under the Communications Act and applicable FCC rules and policies.




		
	b.
	Additional Representations of Lessor.  




		
	i.
	Lessor is the exclusive holder of the FCC Licenses, free and clear of all Liens, and no other person has any right, title or interest in or to the FCC Licenses, in each case except for arrangements that do not affect the Leased Spectrum or Lessees’ Spectrum Usage Rights.  None of the Leased Spectrum is subject to any lease or other agreement or arrangement with any third party, including any agreement giving any third party any right to use such spectrum.


		
	ii.
	There are no existing applications, petitions to deny or complaints or proceedings pending or, to Lessor’s knowledge, threatened, before the FCC or any other tribunal, governmental authority or regulatory agency which will or could reasonably be expected to materially adversely affect the FCC Licenses, other than proceedings affecting the wireless telecommunications industry or PCS licenses or licensees generally.  No governmental authority or regulatory agency has, to Lessor’s knowledge, threatened to terminate or suspend the FCC Licenses.  There are no third party claims of any kind that have been asserted with respect to the FCC Licenses.  Lessor is not in violation or default, nor has it received any notice of any claim of violation or default, with respect to the FCC Licenses.  No event has occurred that permits, or after notice or lapse of time or both would permit, revocation or termination of the FCC Licenses or that will or would reasonably be expected to result in any violation or default, claim of violation or default or impairment of the rights of the holder of the FCC Licenses.


		
	iii.
	Lessor is in compliance in all material respects with all laws, rules and regulations applicable to the FCC Licenses, and Lessor has complied in all 



B-5






material respects with the terms and conditions of the FCC Licenses, except in each case where non-compliance with any of the foregoing would not have a material adverse effect on its ability to enter into this Lease Agreement or perform its obligations hereunder.  Lessor has not received written notice of any complaint or order filed alleging any material non-compliance with respect to any such laws, rules or regulations, in each case (1) to the extent applicable to the FCC Licenses and (2) except as would not have a material adverse effect on Lessor’s ability to enter into this Lease Agreement or perform its obligations hereunder.  
		
	iv.
	The FCC Licenses are not subject to any conditions other than those imposed by the FCC Rules upon the wireless communications services industry generally or upon PCS licenses or licensees generally.  .




		
	9.
	Regulatory Compliance.




		
	a.
	The Parties must comply at all times with applicable rules set forth in Chapter I of Title 47 of the Code of Federal Regulations and with all other applicable laws.  If one party ceases to be compliance in any material respect with applicable FCC rules or policies or with any other applicable law, or receives a notice from the FCC or any other governmental body claiming that such party is not in compliance with any such rule or applicable law such party shall promptly notify, or deliver a copy of such notice to, the other party.




		
	b.
	If either Lessee fails to perform in any material aspect of its obligations under this Lease Agreement or applicable FCC rules and policies in respect of the Leased Spectrum, Lessor may, but shall have no obligation to, with notice to such Lessee, perform any act or make any payment that Lessor deems necessary for the maintenance and preservation of the FCC Licenses and Lessor’s ownership thereof.  




		
	10.
	Indemnification.




		
	a.
	Indemnification by Lessees.  Lessees jointly and severally shall indemnify and hold harmless Lessor and its owners, managers, directors, officers, employees and agents (the “Lessor Indemnified Persons”) from and against any and all demands, claims, losses, liabilities, actions or causes of action, assessments, actual damages (but excluding consequential damages), fines, taxes (including, without limitation, excise and penalty taxes), penalties, reasonable costs and expenses (including, without limitation, interest, reasonable expenses of investigation, reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel, accountants and other experts, whether such reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel, accountants and other experts relate to claims, actions or causes of action asserted by any Lessor Indemnified Person against Lessees or asserted by third Parties) (collectively “Losses”), incurred or suffered by Lessor or any Lessor Indemnified Person arising out of, in connection with or relating to (a) any breach of any of the representations or warranties made by either Lessee in this Agreement, (b) any failure by either Lessee to perform any of its covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement, or (c) any claims by third parties arising out of, in connection with or relating to either Lessee’s operations on the Leased Spectrum during the Term.





B-6






		
	b.
	Indemnification by Lessor.  Lessor shall indemnify and hold harmless each Lessee and its shareholders, directors, officers, employees and agents (the “Lessee Indemnified Persons”) from and against any and all Losses incurred or suffered by such Lessee or any Lessee Indemnified Person arising out of, in connection with or relating to (a) any breach of any of the representations or warranties made by Lessor in this Agreement, (b) any failure by Lessor to perform any of its covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement, or (c) any claims by third parties arising out of, in connection with or relating to the ownership or operation of the FCC Licenses during the Term.




		
	c.
	Remedies.  Notwithstanding any provisions of this Lease Agreement to the contrary, each of the Parties acknowledges and agrees that the FCC Licenses and the Leased Spectrum are unique and that remedies at law, including monetary damages, will be inadequate in the event of a breach by it in the performance of its obligations under this Agreement.  Accordingly, the Parties agree that in the event of any such breach, the non-breaching Party shall (subject to any defenses available to the breaching Party other than the possible adequacy of remedies at law) be entitled to a decree of specific performance pursuant to which the breaching Party is ordered to affirmatively carry out its pre-closing obligations under this Agreement, subject to the conditions of this Agreement.  The foregoing shall not be deemed to be or construed as a waiver or election of remedies by the non-breaching Party and the non-breaching Party expressly reserves any and all rights and remedies available to the non-breaching Party at law or in equity in the event of any breach or default by the breaching Party under this Agreement. 


		
	d.
	No Consequential Damages.  In no event shall either Party be liable for indirect, special, consequential or punitive damages arising out of a breach of this Agreement, even if advised at the time of breach of the possibility of such damages, except where the damages are awarded to a third party by final, non-appealable order in a claim or action against which a Party to this Agreement has a specific obligation to indemnify the other Party to this Agreement.




		
	11.
	Miscellaneous.




		
	a.
	Assignment.  Any Party may assign its rights and obligations hereunder to any Affiliate or any successor of all or substantially all of its business by way of merger, consolidation, liquidation, purchase of assets of such Party or other form of acquisition or other form of reorganization; provided that no such assignment shall relieve any Party of any of its obligations to any other Party hereunder.




		
	b.
	Notices.  All notices or other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given or made (i) upon delivery if delivered personally (by courier service or otherwise) to the address provided in this Section 11(e), or (ii) if delivered by facsimile transmission to the facsimile number provided in this Section 11(e), when receipt of transmission has been orally confirmed by the receiving party (in each case regardless of whether such notice, request or other communication is received by any other Person to whom a copy of such notice is to be delivered pursuant to this Section 11(e)), in each case to the applicable addresses set forth below (or such other address which either Party hereto may from time to time specify).  Any notice of breach shall be prominently labeled as “Notice of Breach of Contract.”  Any Party from time to time may change its address, facsimile number or other information for the 



B-7






purpose of notices to that Party by giving notice specifying such change to the other Party.
