Subject to the Indemnifying Party indemnifying the Indemnified Party or other relevant Protected Party against any liabilities, losses or expenses which it may reasonably suffer or incur thereby and which it would not otherwise suffer or incur, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled by notice in writing to Indemnified Party at any time to require that the Indemnifying Party shall thereafter on behalf of the Indemnified Party or other Protected Party have the sole conduct, control and costs of the indemnified Third Party Claim. Following such notice, the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to avoid, dispute, resist, settle, compromise, defend or appeal the Third Party Claim; provided, however, that any action to avoid, dispute, resist, settle, compromise, defend or appeal any Third Party Claim shall not create or be reasonably expected to create any Losses for any Protected Party; and provided, further that in no event shall the Indemnifying Party enter into any settlement, compromise or similar arrangement of such Third Party Claim if the amount of such Third Party Claim, when aggregated with all such other Indemnity Claims then outstanding, exceeds the amount of total indemnity then available pursuant to Clause 11.3 or 11.12 as applicable. The Indemnified Party shall not do and shall procure that no other Protected Party shall do anything inconsistent therewith.

10.6.5
Where the Indemnifying Party has not by a notice pursuant to this Clause 10 assumed sole conduct, control and costs in relation to a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall and shall procure that each relevant Protected Party shall:

keep the Indemnifying Party informed of all material developments in relation to the Third Party Claim by providing written reports on a quarterly basis or more frequently, where reasonably necessary, that contain such information as the Indemnifying Party shall reasonably require;

 
(ii)
not make any admission of liability, agreement, settlement or compromise with any third party in relation to the Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed;

 
(iii)
take all actions that the Indemnifying Party may reasonably request to avoid, dispute, resist, defend or appeal the Third Party Claim; provided, that any such action to avoid, dispute, resist, settle, compromise, defend or appeal any Third Party Claim shall not create or be reasonably expected to create any Losses for any Protected Party;

procure that no Third Party Claim relating to Tax is settled or otherwise compromised without the Indemnifying Party's prior written consent, such consent not to unreasonably withheld or delayed.

Unless an Indemnifying Party elects, pursuant to Clause 10.6, to assume the control and costs of defense, the costs of defense of any Third Party Claims, including any Krsak Claim but excluding those Claims referred to in Clause 10.6.8, shall be the responsibility of the TV Nova Group, provided that such costs borne by the TV Nova Group shall include only the reasonable costs of attorneys, experts, other advisors, court fees, and related items, and shall not include the cost of any judgment or award made in favor of any claimant.

 
10.6.8
Regardless of whether PPF elects, pursuant to Clause 10.6, to assume the control and costs of defense, the cost of the prosecution, defense and resolution of any Zelezny Claims, AHVG Claims, Komar Claims, Gerner Claims or Smejc Claims, including any judgment or award made in favor of any claimant or any settlement or compromise payment made in respect of any such Claim, shall be borne solely by PPF.

The value of any Losses claimed by one Party against another Party shall be reduced by the value of any related savings or other net benefits gained by the Party entitled to such Losses as a result of such violation, and by any amounts with respect to such Losses that the injured Party recovers with respect to such Losses through insurance policies or other guarantees.

 
11.1.3
PPF's liability under Clause 10 in respect of any Loss resulting from Tax shall not arise to the extent that (i) the corresponding provision or reserve in respect of that liability to Tax (other than deferred tax) has been made in the Closing Audit Report or to the extent that payment or discharge of such liability to Tax (other than deferred tax) has been taken into account in the Closing Audit Report, (ii) the corresponding provision or reserve in respect of that liability to Tax has been made in the Closing Audit Report which is insufficient only by reason of any increase in rates of Tax or change in Tax Law after the date hereof having retrospective effect, (iii) it is a liability to Tax which arises directly from a voluntary act or transaction (a) that could reasonably have been avoided without any adverse affect on the CME Parties or any of their affiliates or the TV Nova Business and any negative impact of which giving rise to a Loss could reasonably have been expected by the CME Parties, and (b) that is carried out by the CME Parties or the TV Nova Group after the Closing Completion Date otherwise than in the ordinary course of business, except for any such voluntary act or transaction carried out with the prior written consent of PPF or carried out pursuant to any Tax Law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, PPF's liability shall not be reduced in respect of any reasonable action undertaken by the CME Parties or the TV Nova Group after the Closing Completion Date to minimize exposure to Tax for periods up to and including the Closing Completion Date.


 
 
11.1.4
If PPF pays to or for the benefit of the CME Parties or the TV Nova Group an amount in respect of any Losses and TV Nova Group or any CME Protected Party subsequently receives from any other person any payment or benefit in respect of the matter giving rise to such Claim, the CME Parties shall thereupon pay to PPF an amount equal to the payment or benefit received (except to any extent that the liability of PPF in respect of such Losses was reduced to take account of such payment or benefit).

 
11.1.5
Each Party shall be under an obligation to take all reasonable steps and to procure that all other Protected Parties take all reasonable steps to mitigate any Loss which is or might become the subject of a Claim against another Party before making an Indemnity Claim against such other Party; provided, however, the obligation to mitigate shall not include the obligation to bring any action or make any claims against any third person, but provided further that any Indemnifying Party shall have the right to subrogate to any claim of the Indemnified Party against any such third person, after the Indemnifying Party has fully covered all Losses of the Indemnified Party.

Annex 1
Programming Library Transfer

Agreed Principles

Parties

AQS a.s and CET 21 s.r.o. (or a party designated by CET 21, the "Transferee"))

Assignment

Subject to the receipt of any required consents, AQS will assign and transfer all rights, title and interest in the Programming Library to Transferee in accordance with the Programming Library Transfer Agreement ("PLTA"). The Programming Library of the TV Nova Business as of August 31, 2004 is incorporated into document number 2a on the Additional Disclosed Documents Index No. 34. The Programming Library to be transferred shall include rights to titles or runs that have been identified therein as reserved by Nova or AQS.

Assignment and Transfer Procedure

AQS shall cause true and correct copies of all AQS Programming Agreements to be Assigned and all master tapes and program broadcasting materials ("Program Materials") in its possession in respect of the AQS Programming Agreements to be Assigned to be delivered to Transferee.

The Programming Library to be transferred shall specifically exclude the transfer of the Program Materials in respect of certain titles identified in the PLTA Annex (the "Retained Master Tapes"). Transferee shall have no liability for the Retained Master Tapes or any obligations attached thereto other than as specified in the PLTA Annex.

AQS and Transferee shall agree a form of notice of consent to assignment of each AQS Programming Agreement to be Assigned to be delivered to the corresponding Distributor. Each of AQS and Transferee shall use its best efforts to procure that each Distributor consents to the assignment. Until the consent of any Distributor is obtained, the Transferee shall be deemed to be a sublicense in accordance with the corresponding AQS Programming Agreement to be Assigned.

AQS will inform each Distributor that all future deliveries of Program Materials (other than any Retained Master Tapes) shall be made directly to Transferee. In the event AQS or its affiliates receive any Program Materials in respect of the AQS Programming Agreements to be Assigned, it shall promptly cause such Program Materials to be delivered to Transferee.

The failure to deliver Program Materials in accordance with the PLTA, a change of control of AQS prior to the transfer of the Programming Library, and AQS' holding itself out or acting as an agent or representative of the TV Nova Group or amending or extending the terms of any Programming Agreements to be Assigned will be included as breaches of the PLTA.


 
Payment

Subject to the satisfaction of the Assignment and Transfer Procedure and the delivery of the Program Materials, Transferee will pay to AQS: The agreed value of each of the AQS Programming Agreements to be Assigned in the amounts set forth in the PLTA Annex (which value shall be 59.5% of the indicated value in respect of any title reserved by AQS) minus those outstanding liabilities to Distributors under the AQS Programming Agreements to be Assigned assumed by Transferee in the amounts set forth in the PLTA Annex.

The agreed value shall be reduced all amounts invoiced by AQS to CET 21 in respect of the Programming Library under any AQS Programming Agreement to be Assigned that has been issued by AQS to CET 21 pursuant to the Agreement on Basic Principle of Purchase of Foreign and Domestic Programs dated September 24, 1998, the Contract for the Purchase of TV Broadcasting Rights and Rights to Language Versions and for the Provision of Shipping Services dated May 10, 2004 or otherwise.
