Post-Closing Adjustment

:

 

The

P

arties hereto have agreed to the consideration to be received by each Preferred Holder in exchange for the Preferred Stock and Class A Common Stock held by such holders immediately prior to the effectiveness hereof based

upon an assumed price per share of Class A Common Stock on a fully-diluted as if converted basis of

[PRICE PER SHARE]

per share (the “Assumed Price Per Share”). In order to maintain the agreed percentage ownership of the Company’s equity, the Company shall issue additional shares of Class A Common Stock and/or Series A Preferred Stock to the extent necessary and in the manner described below upon the occurrence of a Tax Valuation Event (as defined herein).

The number of additional shares of Class A Common Stock and/or Series A Preferred Stock, as applicable, to be issued to each

S

hareholder entitled to receive such additional shares of Class A Common Stock and/or Series A Preferred Stock, as applicable, shall be the number of shares of Class A Common Stock or Series A Preferred Stock, as applicable, that when added to the number of shares of Class A Common Stock or Series A Preferred Stock, as applicable, held by such

S

hareholder on the date hereof as set forth in Exhibit G, shall result in such

S

hareholder holding the number of shares of Class A Common Stock or Series A Preferred Stock, as applicable, set forth opposite such

S

hareholder’s name in the shaded column on the attached as Exhibit H which contains the appropriate Revised Price Per Share (as defined below) resulting from the Tax Valuation Event. In order to determine the Revised Price Per Share, the Assumed Price Per Share shall be adjusted by subtracting from such Assumed Price Per Share an amount equal to the product of (x) ______multiplied by (y) the difference between (i) the number of years greater than ten (10) that the Internal Revenue Service successfully determines (whether through adjudication or settlement with the Company) to be the correct amortizable life of the Company’s subscriber accounts and (ii) ten (10) (such resulting price per share, the “Revised Price Per Share”). In no event whatsoever will the Revised Price per Share be less than

[AMOUNT]

per share.

 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary above, if the Revised Price Per Share is an amount that is between two Revised Price Per Share amounts listed on Exhibit H, the number of shares of Class A Common Stock and/or Series A Preferred Stock, as applicable, to be issued to each

S

hareholder entitled to receive additional shares of Class A Common Stock and/or Series A Preferred Stock, as applicable, shall be adjusted on a linear basis to equal an amount between the number of shares of Class A Common Stock or Series A Preferred Stock, as applicable, that would be issued to such

S

hareholder on the closest two Revised Per Share Amounts listed on Exhibit H. In the event that a holder of Series A Preferred Stock shall have converted such shares into shares of Class A Common Stock prior to the occurrence of a Tax Valuation Event then, upon occurrence of a Tax Valuation Event, such holder shall be issued shares of Class A Common Stock in lieu of shares of Series A Preferred Stock for such shares of Series A Preferred Stock that have been previously converted.

 

“Tax Valuation Event” means an audit of the Company or its Subsidiaries (as defined in the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation) conducted by the Internal Revenue Service which results in (A) a final determination by the Internal Revenue Service that the Company or its Subsidiaries have improperly amortized the life of subscriber accounts over a 10 year period and should have amortized the life of subscriber accounts over a period greater than 10 years and (B) requirements that the Company (1) restate its tax returns to increase the length of time over which it amortizes the life of subscriber accounts to a period greater than 10 years and (2) amortize the life of subscriber accounts on future tax returns over a period greater than 10 years; provided that the Company or such Subsidiary receives notification from the applicable authority of such audit within two years following the date hereof.

 

The Company agrees to furnish to a representative of the Parties copies of all correspondence received from any Governmental Entity in connection with any audit, litigation or other proceedings relating to the tax returns of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. The Company agrees to keep a representative of the Parties informed on a timely basis of all contacts and discussions with any Governmental Entity regarding any audit, litigation or other proceeding described in the foregoing sentence. The Parties shall have the right to consult with the Company regarding any determination, contest and or any assessment, notice of deficiency or other adjustment or proposed adjustment relating to or with respect to taxes or tax returns of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to defend positions taken on tax returns and shall keep the Parties informed of the progress of any such proceedings. The rights of the Parties under this section shall terminate two years following the date of this Agreement; provided that the rights of the Parties under this section shall continue beyond such period with respect to any notification from the concerned authority received by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries within two years following the date of this Agreement.

Each Preferred Holder will deliver to the Company the certificates representing all of the Preferred Stock held by such Preferred Holder, free and clear of any lien, pledge or security interest, except for those imposed pursuant to the Credit Agreement, dated as of

[DATE]

, by and among the Company and the several banks and other lenders

P

arties thereto (the “Credit Agreement”), together with separate stock powers duly endorsed in blank, and any other documents that in the reasonable judgment of the Company are necessary to the Company’s good and valid title to the Preferred Stock held by the Preferred Holder;

 

Each Warrant Holder will deliver to the Company the certificates representing all of the Warrants held by each such Warrant Holder, free and clear of any lien, pledge or security interest, except for those imposed pursuant to the Credit Agreement, and any other documents that in the reasonable judgment of the Company are necessary to the Company’s good and valid title to the Warrant held by such Warrant Holder;

 

Each of Parties. will deliver to the Company the certificates representing all of the Class A Common Stock held by it, free and clear of any lien, pledge or security interest, except for those imposed pursuant to the Credit Agreement, and any other documents that in the reasonable judgment of the Company are necessary to the Company’s good and valid title to such shares of Class A Common Stock;

 

The Company will issue shares of Class A Common Stock or New Series A Preferred to each Preferred Holder and Warrant Holder such that, immediately after the Closing, such Preferred Holder or Warrant Holder holds the number of shares of Class A Common Stock or New Series A Preferred in the amount set forth opposite each Shareholder’s name on Exhibit E;

 

Each

P

arty will execute and deliver the Recapitalization Documents (other than this Agreement) to which such

P

This Agreement and the other Recapitalization Documents to which the Shareholder is a

P

arty have been duly and validly executed and delivered by the Shareholder and, assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery by the other

P

arties hereto, constitute the valid and binding obligations of the Shareholder, enforceable against the Shareholder in accordance with their respective terms, except to the extent that the enforceability thereof may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws generally affecting creditors’ rights and by equitable principles regardless of whether enforcement is sought in equity or at law.

 

No Conflicts

The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Recapitalization Documents to which it is a

P

arty by the Shareholder do not, and the performance by the Shareholder of its obligations hereunder and thereunder will not, constitute a violation of, conflict with or result in a default under the articles of incorporation, bylaws, limited liability company agreement, limited partnership agreement or similar organizational documents, as the case may be, of the Shareholder or any contract to which the Shareholder is a

P

arty or by which the Shareholder is bound or any judgment, decree or order applicable to the Shareholder.
