Schedule 3(ii) contains a true, correct and complete list or description of all current written contracts, agreements, arrangements and other instruments ("CONTRACTS") to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party which: (a) are with any Governmental Authority (other than for Communications Authorizations), (b) are material to the Business Intellectual Property, including but not limited to Contracts granting the Company or its Subsidiaries rights to use the Business Intellectual Property and trademark coexistence -33- agreements, trademark consent agreements and nonassertion agreements, or (c) are otherwise material to the business, results of operations, financial condition or prospects of the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole. All Contracts are valid, binding and in full force and effect as to the Company and its Subsidiaries, and there is no default, or any event which upon notice or the passage of time, or both, would give rise to any material default, in the performance of the Company or its Subsidiaries nor, to the knowledge of the Company, in the performance of any other party to any such Contracts except where such default would not have a Material Adverse Effect. The Company has not entered into and is not planning to enter into any side letters, contracts or other agreements with any of the Buyers other than the Transaction Documents. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is currently a party to any oral contract of the nature that would require disclosure under this Section 3(ii) if such oral contract were in writing. (jj) Benefit Plans. (i) Each Benefit Plan intended to be tax qualified under Sections 401(a) and 501(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "CODE") (i) has been determined by the Internal Revenue Service (the "IRS") to be tax qualified under Sections 401(a) and 501(a) of the Code and, since such determination, no amendment to or failure to amend any such Benefit Plan and no other event or circumstance has occurred that could reasonably be expected to adversely affect its tax qualified status, and (ii) has or will be submitted to the IRS for a determination that it continues to be tax qualified in accordance with GUST (as defined in Revenue Procedure 2001-55, 2001-49 I.R.B. 552 (Nov. 15, 2001)) before the end of the GUST remedial amendment period (as set forth in that same Revenue Procedure or subsequent guidance from the IRS). There have been no prohibited transactions within the meaning of Section 4975 of the Code or Section 406 of Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA"), with respect to any Benefit Plan, except to the extent there is an exemption available under Section 4975(d) of the Code or Section 408 of ERISA, or a class or individual exemption issued by the Department of Labor. For purposes of this Agreement, "BENEFIT PLAN" shall mean any pension, retirement, savings, deferred compensation or profit-sharing plan, any stock option, stock appreciation, stock purchase, performance share, bonus or other incentive plan, severance plan, health, group insurance or other welfare plan, or other similar plan (whether written or otherwise) and any "employee benefit plan" within the meaning of Section 3(3) of ERISA, under which the Company has any current or future obligation or liability (including any potential, contingent or secondary liability under Title IV of ERISA) or under which any employee or former employee (or beneficiary of any employee or former employee) of the Company has or may have any current or future right to benefits (the term "plan" shall include any contract, agreement (including an employment or independent contractor agreement), policy or understanding. (ii) There are no actions, claims, audits, lawsuits or arbitrations pending, or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened, with respect to any Benefit Plan or the assets of any Benefit Plan. Except as set forth in Schedule 3(jj), each Benefit Plan has been administered in all material respects in accordance with its terms and with all applicable Legal Requirements (including, without limitation, the Code and ERISA). There are no applications pending with the IRS or the United States Department of Labor under any voluntary compliance program regarding any Benefit Plan. Each of the Company and its Subsidiaries has satisfied all funding, compliance and reporting requirements for all Benefit Plans. With respect to each Benefit Plan, if applicable, each of the Company and its Subsidiaries has paid all contributions in accordance with the terms of the applicable Benefit Plan (including employee salary reduction -34- contributions) and all insurance premiums that have become due and any such expense accrued but not yet due has been properly reflected in the Financial Statements. (iii) The consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement will not (A) entitle any employee or independent contractor of the Company or its Subsidiaries to severance pay or termination benefits, (B) accelerate the time of payment or vesting, or increase the amount of compensation due to any current or former employee or independent contractor of the Company or its Subsidiaries, (C) obligate the Company or any of its affiliates to pay or otherwise be liable for any compensation, vacation days, pension contribution or other benefits to any current or former employee, consultant, agent or independent contractor of the Company or its Subsidiaries for periods before the Closing Date or the Buyers' Option Purchase Date, (D) require assets to be set aside or other forms of security to be provided with respect to any liability under a Benefit Plan, or (5) result in any "parachute payment" (within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code) under any Benefit Plan. (iv) No Benefit Plan is subject to the provisions of Section 412 of the Code or Part 3 of Subtitle B of Title I of ERISA. No Benefit Plan is subject to Title IV of ERISA and no Benefit Plan is a "multiemployer plan" (within the meaning of Section 3(37) of ERISA). Since inception, neither the Company, its Subsidiaries, nor any business or entity treated as a single employer with the Company or its Subsidiaries for purposes of Title IV of ERISA contributed to or was obliged to contribute to a pension plan that was at any time subject to Title IV of ERISA.

The books of account, ledgers, order books, records and documents of the Company and its Subsidiaries (in the case of any acquired Subsidiary, since the date of its acquisition) accurately and completely reflect all information relating to the respective businesses of the Company and its Subsidiaries, the nature, acquisition, maintenance, location and collection of each of their respective assets, and the nature of all transactions giving rise to material obligations or accounts receivable of the Company or its Subsidiaries, as the case may be, except where the failure to so reflect such information would not have a Material Adverse Effect. The minute books of the Company and its Subsidiaries (in the case of any acquired Subsidiary, since the date of its acquisition) contain accurate records in all material respects of all meetings and accurately reflect in all material respects all other actions taken by the stockholders, boards of directors and all committees of the boards of directors, and other governing Persons of the Company and its Subsidiaries, respectively. (ll) Money Laundering. The Company and its Subsidiaries are in compliance with, and have not previously violated, the USA PATRIOT ACT of 2001 (the "PATRIOT ACT") and all other applicable U.S. and non-U.S. anti-money laundering laws and regulations, including, but not limited to, the laws, regulations and Executive Orders and sanctions programs administered by the U.S. Office of Foreign Assets Control ("OFAC"), including, but not limited, to (i) Executive Order 13224 of September 23, 2001 entitled, "Blocking Property and Prohibiting Transactions With Persons Who Commit, Threaten to Commit, or Support Terrorism" (66 Fed. Reg. 49079 (2001)); and (ii) any regulations contained in 31 CFR, Subtitle B, Chapter V (collectively, the "ANTI-MONEY LAUNDERING/OFAC LAWS"). -35- (mm) Business Practices. Neither the Company, its Subsidiaries, nor any Person acting on behalf of the Company or its Subsidiaries has paid or delivered, or promised to pay or deliver, directly or indirectly through any other Person, any monies or anything else of value to any government official or employee of any political party, for the purpose of inducing or rewarding any action by the official favorable to the Company or its Subsidiaries in violation of applicable laws.

Each party shall use its reasonable best efforts to timely satisfy each of the conditions to be satisfied by it as provided in Sections 6 and 7 of this Agreement. (b) Form D and Blue Sky. The Company agrees to file a Form D with respect to the Notes, the Guarantees and Warrants as required under Regulation D and to provide a copy thereof to counsel for the Buyers promptly after such filing. The Company shall, on or before the Closing Date, take such action as the Company shall reasonably determine is necessary in order to obtain an exemption for or to qualify the Securities for sale to the Buyers at the Closing pursuant to this Agreement under applicable securities or "Blue Sky" laws of the states of the United States (or to obtain an exemption from such qualification), and shall provide evidence of any such action so taken to the Buyers on or prior to the Closing Date. The Company shall make all filings and reports relating to the offer and sale of the Securities required under applicable securities or "Blue Sky" laws of the states of the United States. (c) Use of Proceeds. Other than the Initial Collateral Funds and Additional Collateral Funds to be paid to the Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 4(j), the proceeds from the sale of the Notes, Guarantees and Warrants will be used by the Company for any business conducted or proposed to be conducted by the Company and its Subsidiaries (as defined in the Indenture) on the date hereof and other businesses reasonably related, complementary or ancillary thereto or a reasonable extension or expansion thereof. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the Company will not use the proceeds from the sale of the Notes, Guarantees or Warrants for the repayment of any outstanding Indebtedness of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries if such repayment is prohibited by the Indenture or for the redemption or repurchase of any of the Company's or its Subsidiaries' equity securities, except as permitted under the Indenture, or transfer such proceeds to an Unrestricted Subsidiary (as defined in the Indenture). (d) Financial Information. For so long as any Securities remain outstanding and are "restricted securities" within the meaning of Rule 144(a)(3) under the Securities Act, the -36- Company will, during any period in which it is not subject to Section 13 or 15(d) under the United States Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "EXCHANGE ACT"), make available to the Buyer and any holder of Securities in connection with any sale thereof and any prospective purchaser of Securities and securities analysts, in each case upon request, the information specified in, and meeting the requirements of, Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act (or any successor thereto).

Except as otherwise set forth in the Transaction Documents, each party to this Agreement shall bear its own expenses in connection with the sale of the Notes and Warrants to the Buyers. (ii) The Company shall pay or cause to be paid all costs and expenses incident to the performance of its obligations hereunder, including without limitation, all fees (including fees of its counsel), costs and expenses (A) incident to the preparation, issuance, execution, authentication and delivery of the Securities and (B) incurred in connection with the registration or qualification and determination of eligibility for investment of the Securities under United States federal and state laws. (f) Pledge of Securities. The Company acknowledges and agrees that the Securities may be pledged by a Holder (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) to an Institutional Accredited Investor in connection with a bona fide margin agreement or other loan or financing arrangement that is secured by the Securities; provided, that any such pledgee shall not foreclose on such pledge other than in compliance with the transfer restrictions set forth in Section 2(h) hereof. The pledge of Securities shall not be deemed to be a transfer, sale or assignment of the Securities hereunder, and no Buyer effecting a pledge of Securities shall be required to provide the Company with any notice thereof or otherwise make any delivery to the Company pursuant to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document. The Company hereby agrees to execute and deliver such documentation as a pledgee of the Securities may reasonably request in connection with a pledge of the Securities to such pledgee by a Buyer. (g) Reservation of Shares. The Company shall take all action necessary to at all times have authorized, and reserved for the purpose of issuance, free of pre-emptive rights (except those that have been previously waived), after the Closing Date, a number of shares of Class A Common Stock sufficient for the purpose of enabling the Company to satisfy all obligations to issue the Warrant Shares upon exercise of the Warrants.

The business of the Company and its Subsidiaries shall not be conducted in violation of any Legal Requirement, except where such violations would not result, either individually or in the aggregate, in a Material Adverse Effect. -37- (i) Additional Notes; Variable Securities; Dilutive Issuances. For so long as any Buyer has the right to purchase any Additional Notes, the Company will not issue any Notes or Guarantees other than to the Buyers (including any Subsequent Purchasers) as contemplated hereby and in the Indenture, and the Company shall not issue any other securities that would cause a breach or default under the Notes or the Guarantees. For so long as any Warrants remain outstanding or any Buyer has the right to purchase any Additional Warrants, the Company shall not, in any manner, issue or sell any rights, warrants or options to subscribe for or purchase Common Stock or directly or indirectly convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for Class A Common Stock at a price that may vary with the market price of the Class A Common Stock, including by way of one or more reset(s) to any fixed price unless (i) the conversion, exchange or exercise price of any such security cannot be less than the then applicable Exercise Price (as defined in the Warrants) with respect to the Class A Common Stock into which any Warrant is exercisable or (ii) the anti-dilution provisions of the Warrants operate to adjust the Exercise Price of the Warrants as if such security was issued at such price as of the date such price is reset or adjusted. For so long as any Warrants remain outstanding or any Buyer has the right to purchase any Additional Warrants, the Company shall not, in any manner, enter into or affect any Dilutive Issuance (as defined in the Warrants) if the effect of such Dilutive Issuance is to cause the Company to be required to issue upon exercise of any Warrant any shares of Class A Common Stock in excess of that number of shares of Class A Common Stock which the Company may issue upon exercise of the Warrants, including the Additional Warrants, without breaching the Company's obligations under the rules or regulations of the principal market on which the shares of Class A Common Stock are listed for trading, if any.

Prior to the effective date of the registration statement relating to the Qualified IPO (as defined in the Indenture)(and except as may be required to be set forth in any registration statement filed or any prospectus delivered in connection with such offering), the Buyers shall not issue any press release or otherwise make any public statement, filing or other communication related to this Agreement, any other Transaction Document, or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, without the prior consent of the Company (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld), except if such disclosure is required by law or the rules of any national stock exchange or automated quotation system, in which case the disclosing party shall promptly provide the other parties with prior notice of such public statement, filing or other communication. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not (a) prior to the effective date of the registration statement relating to the Qualified IPO (and except as may be required to be set forth in any registration statement filed or any prospectus delivered in connection with such offering), publicly disclose the name of any Buyer or include the name of any Buyer, without the prior written consent of such Buyer in any other press release or public statement or filing, except to the extent the Company has received a legal opinion that such disclosure is required by law, in which case the Company shall provide such Buyer with prior notice of such disclosure or (b) except if such disclosure is required by law, disclose the name of any Buyer or include the name of any Buyer without the prior written consent of such Buyer (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), to any third party or in any materials prepared for any third party. This Section 4(m) shall not apply to the provision of documentation to potential investors in connection with any potential financings, mergers or acquisitions involving the Company. (n) Withholding Tax.

Prior to a Qualified IPO or a Change of Control, the Company shall not amend any voting powers, designations, preferences, rights and qualifications, limitations or restrictions of any class of the capital stock of the Company in a manner that would be materially adverse to any Buyer and that treats such Buyer in a different manner than (i) the other Buyers holding Class A common stock, or securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Class A common stock or (ii) other holders of Class A common stock of the Company, in each case without the prior written consent of such Buyer. -39- (p) Disclosure of Material Information.

(c) Headings. The headings of this Agreement are for convenience of reference and shall not form part of, or affect the interpretation of, this Agreement. (d) Severability. If any provision of this Agreement shall be invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remainder of this Agreement in that jurisdiction or the validity or enforceability of any provision of this Agreement in any other jurisdiction. (e) Entire Agreement; Amendments. This Agreement supersedes all other prior oral or written agreements between the Buyers, the Company, their affiliates and Persons acting on their behalf with respect to the matters discussed herein, and this Agreement and the instruments referenced herein contain the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the matters covered herein and therein and, except as specifically set forth herein or therein, neither the Company nor any Buyer makes any representation, warranty, covenant or undertaking with respect to such matters. No provision of this Agreement may be amended other than by an instrument in writing signed by the Company and the holders of at least a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes issued and issuable hereunder, and any amendment to this Agreement made in conformity with the provisions of this Section 9(e) shall be binding on all Buyers and holders of Notes, as applicable. No provision hereof may be waived other than by an instrument in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement is sought. No such amendment shall be effective to the extent that it applies to less than all of the holders of the applicable Securities then outstanding. No consideration shall be offered or paid to any Person to amend or consent to a waiver or modification of any provision of any of the Transaction Documents unless the same consideration also is offered to all of the parties to the Transaction Documents, holders of Notes or holders of the Warrants, as the case may be. The Company has not, directly or indirectly, made any agreements with any Buyers relating to the terms or conditions of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents except as set forth in the Transaction Documents. (f) Notices. Any notices, consents, waivers or other communications required or permitted to be given under the terms of this Agreement must be in writing and will be deemed to have been delivered: (i) upon receipt, when delivered personally; (ii) upon receipt, when sent by facsimile (provided confirmation of transmission is mechanically or electronically generated and kept on file by the sending party); or (iii) one Business Day after deposit with an overnight courier service, in each case properly addressed to the party to receive the same.

(g) Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and assigns, including any purchasers of the Notes or the Warrants. The Company shall not assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the holders of at least a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes issued and issuable hereunder. A Buyer may assign some or all of its rights hereunder without the consent of the Company, in which event such assignee shall be deemed to be a Buyer hereunder with respect to such assigned rights and shall agree to be bound by the provisions hereof. (h) No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is intended for the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns, and is not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any other Person, provided, however, that the Agents may rely upon Section 2 and Section 3 hereof. (i) Survival. Unless this Agreement is terminated under Section 8, the representations and warranties of the Company and the Buyers contained in Sections 2 and 3 and the agreements and covenants set forth in Sections 4, 5 and 9 shall survive the Closing. Each Buyer shall be severally responsible only for its own representations, warranties, agreements and covenants hereunder. (j) Further Assurances. Each party shall do and perform, or cause to be done and performed, all such further acts and things, and shall execute and deliver all such other agreements, certificates, instruments and documents, as any other party may reasonably request in order to carry out the intent and accomplish the purposes of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby. (k) Indemnification. In consideration of each Buyer's execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents and acquiring the Securities thereunder and in addition to all of the Company's and Guarantors' other obligations under the Transaction Documents, the Company and the Guarantors', jointly and severally, shall defend, protect, indemnify and hold harmless each Buyer and such Buyer's stockholders, partners, members, officers, directors, employees and direct or indirect investors and any of the foregoing Persons' agents or other representatives (including, without limitation, those retained in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) (each, an "INDEMNITEE" and collectively, the "INDEMNITEES"), as incurred, from and against any and all actions, causes of action, suits, claims, losses, costs, penalties, fees, liabilities and damages, and expenses in connection therewith (irrespective of whether any such Indemnitee is a party to the action for which indemnification hereunder is sought), and including reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements (the "INDEMNIFIED LIABILITIES"), incurred by any Indemnitee as a result of, or arising out of, or relating to (a) any misrepresentation or breach of any representation or warranty made by the Company or the Guarantors (as applicable) in the Transaction Documents or any other certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby or thereby, (b) any breach of any covenant, agreement or obligation of the Company or the Guarantors (as applicable) contained in the Transaction -47- Documents or any other certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby or thereby or (c) any cause of action, suit or claim brought or made against such Indemnitee by a third party (including for these purposes a derivative action brought on behalf of the Company) and arising out of or resulting from (i) the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of the Transaction Documents or any other certificate, instrument or document contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) any transaction financed or to be financed in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, with the proceeds of the issuance of the Securities or (iii) the status of such Buyer or holder of the Securities as an investor in the Company pursuant to the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents; provided that indemnification pursuant to this clause (iii) shall not be available to the extent arising primarily from such Buyer's bad faith, breach of the Transaction Documents, fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct. To the extent that the foregoing undertaking by the Company may be unenforceable for any reason, the Company shall make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the Indemnified Liabilities which is permissible under applicable law. Except as otherwise set forth herein, the mechanics and procedures with respect to the rights and obligations under this Section 9(k) shall be the same as those set forth in Section 6 of the Registration Rights Agreement. If a third party claim in respect of Indemnified Liabilities involves more than one Indemnitee, the Indemnitees shall conduct the defence through the same legal counsel, at Indemnitor's expense, acceptable to all Indemnitees, provided that an Indemnitee may employ separate counsel, at indemnitor's expense, if representation by the same legal counsel would be inappropriate due to differing interests between the Indemnitees. (l) No Strict Construction. The language used in this Agreement will be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties to express their mutual intent, and no rules of strict construction will be applied against any party. (m) Remedies. Each Buyer and each holder of the Securities shall have all rights and remedies set forth in the Transaction Documents and all rights and remedies which such holders have been granted at any time under any other agreement or contract and all of the rights which such holders have under any law. Any Person having any rights under any provision of this Agreement shall be entitled to enforce such rights specifically (without posting a bond or other security), to recover damages by reason of any breach of any provision of this Agreement and to exercise all other rights granted by law. Furthermore, the Company recognizes that in the event that it fails to perform, observe, or discharge any or all of its obligations under the Transaction Documents, any remedy at law may prove to be inadequate relief to the Buyers. The Company therefore agrees that the Buyers shall be entitled to seek temporary and permanent injunctive relief in any such case without the necessity of proving actual damages and without posting a bond or other security. (n) Payment Set Aside. To the extent that the Company makes a payment or payments to the Buyers hereunder or pursuant to any of the other Transaction Documents or the Buyers enforce or exercise their rights hereunder or thereunder, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or exercise or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, recovered from, disgorged by or are required to be refunded, repaid or otherwise restored to the Company, a trustee, receiver or any other Person under any law (including, without limitation, any bankruptcy law, foreign, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause of action), then to the extent of any such restoration the -48- obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred. (o) Independent Nature of Buyers' Obligations. The obligations of each Buyer under any Transaction Document are several and not joint with the obligations of any other Buyer, and no Buyer shall be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Buyer under any Transaction Document. Nothing contained herein or in any other Transaction Document, and no action taken by any Buyer pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the Buyers as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the Buyers are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents. Each Buyer confirms that it has independently participated in the negotiation of the transaction contemplated hereby with the advice of its own counsel and advisors. Subject to the provisions of the Indenture, each Buyer shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including, without limitation, the rights arising out of this Agreement or out of any other Transaction Documents, and it shall not be necessary for any other Buyer to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose. (p) Currency. Unless otherwise indicated, all dollar amounts referred to in this Agreement are in United States Dollars. (q) Termination of Security Documents. Upon the redemption of all of the Notes pursuant to the terms of the Indenture, all of the Security Documents shall terminate and the Collateral Agent and the Holders irrevocably authorize and direct the Company, and any agent under their respective direction, at the sole expense of the Company, to (a) discharge any and all registrations and filings made in favor of the Holder or the Collateral Agent on behalf of the Holders, against the Company or its Subsidiaries (and any predecessor entities of or to the Company or its Subsidiaries) and any financing change statements filed in connection with such registrations; and (b) file any UCC financing statement terminations.
