(g) Each Party shall take all reasonable and necessary actions and use its commercially reasonable efforts in good faith, to file, without any undue delay all notices, reports and other documents required to be filed by such Party with any Governmental Body in order to allow the pledge of the Bezeq Shares for the benefit of the Company’s bondholders pursuant and subject to Company Debt Modifications (the “Share Pledge”). Such efforts shall require the Purchasers to (i) file, following the date of this Agreement (without undue delays), a formal request with the Israeli Ministry of Communication to authorize the Share Pledge (and to timely respond to subsequent requests for information by the Israeli Ministry of Communication in connection therewith), and (ii) coordinate with the Company and representatives of its bondholders in respect of matters related to the Share Pledge.

9.	MISCELLANEOUS

9.1 Expenses; Taxes.

9.3 Survival; Limitation on Liability; Indemnification.

(a) Survival. The representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or in any certificates delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall survive the Closing for a period of four (4) months following the Closing. Each covenant and agreement of the Parties contained in this Agreement shall survive the Closing in accordance with its terms. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any breach of representation, warranty, covenant or agreement in respect of which indemnity may be sought under this Agreement shall survive the time at which it would otherwise terminate pursuant to the foregoing, if written notice with respect thereto has been given by Purchaser A to the Seller or the Company, as applicable, prior to such time.

(b) Indemnification. Subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 9.3, from and after the Closing, the Seller shall indemnify the Purchasers and their Affiliates and their respective Representatives, successors and assigns against, and shall defend and hold each of them harmless from, any and all liabilities, losses, damages, fines, penalties, deficiencies, taxes, judgments, interest, awards, and other costs and expenses of whatever kind, including reasonable attorneys’ and accountants’ fees (“Losses”), to the extent arising out of, relating to or resulting from (i) a breach by the Seller of its representations or warranties set forth in this Agreement or in the certificate delivered thereby pursuant to Section 7.2(a)(iii), or (ii) any breach by the Seller of any covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement required to be performed before, at or after the Closing.

(c) Limitation on Liability. Except in the case of fraud, (i) the Seller’s maximum aggregate liability for any and all Losses in connection with, relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby shall in no event exceed the Seller Liability Cap, (ii) the Company’s maximum aggregate liability for any Losses in connection with, relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby shall in no event exceed the Company Liability Cap, and (iii) each Purchaser’s maximum aggregate liability for any Losses in connection with, relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby shall in no event exceed such Purchaser’s Pro Rata Share of the Purchaser Liability Cap.

(d) No Consequential Damages. In no event, whether before of following Closing, shall any of the Parties be responsible for any indirect or punitive damages of the other Parties, including consequential or special damages of any nature whatsoever, the loss of any profits, revenues, opportunities or goodwill, even if the other Party has been advised of the possibility of such damages, except to the extent such damages arise out of fraud. It is clarified, without limiting from anything contained herein or any other rights under applicable Legal Requirements, that payment by a Party to any third party (other than, with respect to the Purchasers only, the Sponsors or any investor therein) pursuant to a judgement of a competent court, shall be considered indirect damages.

(e) It is clarified that any Restricted Matters taken by Bezeq or any subsidiary thereof (without any breach of any of Seller’s or the Company’s obligations hereunder), shall not, in and of itself, constitute a breach of the Seller’s or the Company’s representations and warranties hereunder, without limiting, modifying or otherwise affecting Purchaser’s rights under Section 6.2 (including Section 6.2(c)).

9.4 Investigations. The representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of the Parties (and the conditions relating thereto) shall not be affected or deemed waived by reason of any investigation made (or not made) by or on behalf of any Party or its Affiliates (or their respective Representatives), or by reason of the fact that a Party or any of its Representatives knew or should have known of any facts or matters, including that any such representation and warranty is or might be inaccurate or untrue, whether prior to the date hereof or the Closing, and including if notwithstanding such knowledge a Party entered into this Agreement or proceeds to Closing. Each of the Parties hereby acknowledges that, regardless of any investigation made (or not made) by or on behalf of any of the other Parties or any of its Affiliates (or their respective Representatives), and regardless of the results of any such investigation, such other Parties have entered into this Agreement (and will effect the Closing) in express reliance upon the representations, warranties covenants and agreements of each Party made herein and the conditions and indemnification obligations relating thereto.

9.5 Assignments, Successors. No Party may assign any of its rights under this Agreement without the prior consent of the other Parties; provided, however, that each Purchaser may assign its rights and obligations hereunder (in whole or in part) to any Affiliate of such Purchaser without the consent of the Seller or the Company, except that such transfer or assignment will not relieve the assigning Purchaser of any of its obligations hereunder, except to the extent such assignment would have a material and adverse effect on the ability of such Purchaser to obtain the Control Permit in a timely manner. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement will apply to, be binding in all respects upon, and inure to the benefit of the successors and permitted assigns of the Parties.

9.6 No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement, specifically excluding express provisions contained in the Commitment Letters, shall not, and is not intended to, confer any rights or remedies upon any Person other than the Parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.
