No Party shall make, and no Party shall permit any other members of its Group or their respective Representatives to make, any claim or demand, or commence any Action asserting any claim or demand, including any claim of contribution or any indemnification, against any member of the Group of the other Party or any Releasees of the other Party with respect to any Liabilities released pursuant to this Section 5.01(a).

Section 5.02 Indemnification of ATUS. Except as provided in any Transaction Document, ATUS, each other member of the ATUS Group and each of their respective officers, directors, employees and agents (collectively, the “ATUS Indemnified Parties”) shall, from and after the Distribution Date, be indemnified and held harmless by ANV from and against any and all claims, losses, damages, costs, expenses, interest, awards, judgments and penalties (including

reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) actually suffered or incurred by them (collectively, “Losses”), to the extent arising out of, or resulting from, (a) any ANV Liability or (b) any breach by any member of the ANV Group of any provision of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, unless such Transaction Document expressly provides for separate indemnification therein, in which case any such indemnification claims shall be made thereunder.

Section 5.03 Indemnification of ANV. Except as provided in any Transaction Document, ANV, each other member of the ANV Group and each of their respective officers, directors, employees and agents (collectively, the “ANV Indemnified Parties”) shall, from and after the Distribution Date, be indemnified and held harmless by ATUS from and against any and all Losses, to the extent arising out of, or resulting from, (a) any ATUS Liability or (b) any breach by any member of the ATUS Group of any provision of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, unless such Transaction Document expressly provides for separate indemnification therein, in which case any such indemnification claims shall be made thereunder.

Section 5.04 Limitations on Indemnification.

(a) For all purposes of this Article V, “Losses” shall be net of (i) any recovery or benefit (including insurance and indemnification) payable to the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates in connection with the facts giving rise to the right of indemnification and, if the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates receives such recovery or benefit and payment from the Indemnifying Party, then the amount of such recovery or benefit, net of reasonable expenses incurred in obtaining such recovery or benefit, shall be paid to the Indemnifying Party; and (ii) any Tax Benefit actually realized by the Indemnified Party or any of its Affiliates in the taxable period in which the Loss occurred or in the two taxable periods immediately thereafter.

(b) Each Party shall, and shall cause its respective Representatives to, take all reasonable steps to mitigate its Losses upon and after becoming aware of any event that would reasonably be expected to give rise to any Losses.

Section 5.05 No Right to Set-Off. No Party shall have any right to set off any Losses under this Article V against any payments to be made by such Party pursuant to this Agreement or any other agreement between the Parties or their respective Affiliates, including any Transaction Document.

Section 5.06 Procedures for Indemnification.

(a) An Indemnified Party shall (i) give prompt written notice to Indemnifying Party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification (provided that any delay or failure to so notify Indemnifying Party shall relieve Indemnifying Party of its obligations hereunder only to the extent, if at all, that it is actually prejudiced by reason of such delay or failure) and (ii) permit Indemnifying Party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party; provided that any Indemnified Party shall have the right to select and employ separate counsel and to participate in the defense of such claim, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Person unless (A)

Indemnifying Party has agreed in writing to pay such fees or expenses, (B) Indemnifying Party shall have failed to assume the defense of such claim within a reasonable time after receipt of notice of such claim from such Indemnified Party and employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party, (C) the Indemnified Party has reasonably concluded (based upon advice of its counsel) that there may be legal defenses available to it or other Indemnified Parties that are different from or in addition to those available to Indemnifying Party, (D) in the reasonable judgment of any such Indemnified Party (based upon advice of its counsel), a conflict of interest may exist between such Indemnified Party and Indemnifying Party with respect to such claims (in which case, if such Indemnified Party notifies Indemnifying Party in writing that such Indemnified Party elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of Indemnifying Party, Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to assume the defense of such claim on behalf of such Person), in which case of such clauses (A) through (D), Indemnifying Party will pay the reasonable fees, disbursements or other charges of such additional counsel or counsels. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense, the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to settle such action without the consent of the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall not consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party of an unconditional release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation without the prior written consent of such Indemnified Party. If such defense is not assumed by the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnifying Party will not be subject to any liability for any settlement made without its prior written consent, but such consent may not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Section 5.06(a):

(i) ANV shall not have the right to assume the defense of an Action for which an ATUS Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 5.02 on behalf of such ATUS Indemnified Party (without the prior written consent of such ATUS Indemnified Party) if (A) such Action is brought by or before a Governmental Authority in the United States of America, (B) such Action seeks an injunction or equitable relief against such ATUS Indemnified Party, or (C) such Action relates to or arises in connection with any criminal or quasi criminal proceeding; and

(ii) ATUS shall not have the right to assume the defense of an Action for which an ANV Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 5.03 on behalf of such ANV Indemnified Party (without the prior written consent of such ANV Indemnified Party) if (A) such Action is brought by or before a Governmental Authority in a member state of the European Union, (B) such Action seeks an injunction or equitable relief against such ANV Indemnified Party, or (C) such Action relates to or arises in connection with any criminal or quasi criminal proceeding.

Section 5.07 Nominal Defendant Cooperation. The Parties agree that, from and after the date hereof (including after the date of the Distribution), if an Action is made against an Indemnified Party by any Person who is not the Indemnifying Party or an Affiliate of the Indemnifying Party with respect to which an Indemnified Party is a nominal defendant, then the Indemnifying Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such nominal defendant to be removed from such Action.

Section 5.08 Remedies. Each of the Parties acknowledges and agrees that, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (a) other than as provided in Section 11.12, (i) the indemnification provisions set forth in this Article V shall be the sole and exclusive remedies of the Parties and the parties to the Local Conveyances, as applicable, for any breach of any Local Conveyance and for any failure to perform and comply with any covenant or agreement in this Agreement or in any Local Conveyance; (ii) none of the Parties, their respective Representatives or any other Person may bring a claim under any Local Conveyance; and (iii) any and all claims arising out of, resulting from, or in connection with, the ATUS Assets, the ATUS Liabilities, the ATUS Business, the ANV Assets, the ANV Liabilities, the ANV Business or the transactions contemplated in this Agreement must be brought under and in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; and (b) notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no breach of this Agreement or any Local Conveyance shall give rise to any right on the part of any Party or the parties to the Local Conveyances, as applicable, after the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, to rescind this Agreement, any Local Conveyance or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby. Each Party shall cause its Representatives to comply with this Section 5.08.

Section 5.09 Tax Indemnities. The provisions of this Article V shall not apply with respect to Taxes (other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims or damages arising from any non-Tax claim) or Tax Contests, which shall be governed by the provisions of Article X.

ARTICLE VI

ACCESS TO INFORMATION; PRIVILEGE

Section 6.01 Provision of Corporate Records. Other than in circumstances in which indemnification is sought pursuant to Article V or the Indemnification Agreement (in which event the provisions of such Article or Indemnification Agreement shall govern), and subject to appropriate confidentiality restrictions and restrictions for Privileged Information, after the Distribution Date, upon the prior written request by a Party for specific and identified information in the possession or control of the other Party or its Subsidiaries which relates to the requesting Party’s Group or its business, as the case may be, prior to the Distribution Date, such other Party shall provide, as soon as reasonably practicable following the receipt of such request, appropriate copies of such information (or the originals thereof if the Party making the request has a reasonable need for such originals).

Section 6.02 Retention of Records; Access to Information. To facilitate the possible exchange of information pursuant to Section 6.01, this Section 6.02 and the other applicable provisions of this Agreement, until the later of the seventh anniversary of the Distribution Date or the expiration of the relevant period of the applicable statute of limitations (including any extension thereof), each Party shall, and shall cause the other members of its Group to, retain the books and records and financial and operational data relating to the periods prior to the Distribution. Other than in circumstances in which indemnification is sought pursuant to Article V or the Indemnification Agreement (in which event the provisions of such Article or Indemnification Agreement shall govern), and subject to appropriate confidentiality restrictions and restrictions for Privileged Information, upon reasonable notice, each Party shall afford the Representatives of the other Party reasonable access (including the right to make, at

such other Party’s expense, copies), during normal business hours, to the personnel, properties, books and records of such Party and its Subsidiaries insofar as such access is reasonably required by the other Party and relates to such other Party or the conduct of its business prior to the Effective Time. Nothing in this Section 6.02 shall require any Party to (i) violate any agreement with any third party regarding the confidentiality of information relating to that third party or its business; provided, however, that in the event that a Party is required to disclose any such information, such Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to seek to obtain such third party’s consent to the disclosure of such information; (ii) jeopardize any Privilege; or (iii) contravene any applicable Law or fiduciary duty.

Section 6.03 Witness Services. At all times from and after the Distribution Date, each Party shall, and shall cause the members of its Group to, use commercially reasonable efforts to make available to the other Party, upon reasonable written request, its and its Group members’ officers, directors, employees and agents (taking into account the business demands of such individuals) as witnesses to the extent that such persons may reasonably be required to testify in connection with the prosecution or defense of any Action in which the requesting Party may from time to time be involved, except for Actions in which a Party or one or more members of its Group is adverse to the other Party or one or more members of its Group, with respect to which the provisions of Article V shall apply. A Party providing a witness to the other Party pursuant to this Section 6.03 shall be entitled to receive from the recipient of such witness services, upon the presentation of invoices therefor, payments for such amounts, relating to supplies, disbursements and other out-of-pocket expenses, as may be reasonably incurred.

Section 6.04 Privileged Matters.

(a) Pre-Separation Services. The Parties recognize that legal and other professional services that have been and will be provided prior to the Effective Time have been and will be rendered for the collective benefit of each of the members of the ATUS Group and the ANV Group, and that each of the members of the ATUS Group and the ANV Group should be deemed to be the client with respect to such pre-separation services for the purposes of asserting all privileges, immunities, or other protections from disclosure which may be asserted under applicable Law, including attorney-client privilege, business strategy privilege, joint defense privilege, common interest privilege, and protection under the work-product doctrine (“Privilege”). The Parties and their respective Group members shall have a shared Privilege with respect to all information subject to Privilege (“Privileged Information”) which relates to such pre-separation services. For the avoidance of doubt, Privileged Information within the scope of this Section 6.04 includes services rendered by legal counsel retained or employed by any Party (or any other member of such Party’s respective Group), including outside counsel and in-house counsel.

(b) Post-Separation Services. The Parties recognize that certain legal and professional post-separation services will be rendered solely for the benefit of a member of the ATUS Group or of a member of the ANV Group, as the case may be, while other legal and professional post-separation services may be rendered with respect to Actions or other matters which involve members of both Groups. With respect to such post-separation services and related Privileged Information, the Parties agree as follows:

(i) All Privileged Information relating to any Actions or other matters which involve members of both Groups shall be subject to a shared Privilege among the parties involved in the claims, proceedings, litigation, disputes, or other matters at issue.

(ii) Except as otherwise provided in Section 6.04(b)(i), Privileged Information relating to post-separation services provided solely to members of one Group shall not be deemed shared between the Parties; provided, that the foregoing shall not be construed or interpreted to restrict the right or authority of the Parties (x) to enter into any further agreement, not otherwise inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement, concerning the sharing of Privileged Information; or (y) otherwise to share Privileged Information without waiving any Privilege which could be asserted under applicable Law.

(c) The Parties agree as follows regarding all Privileged Information with respect to which the Parties shall have a shared Privilege under Section 6.04(a) or (b):

(i) Subject to Section 6.04(c)(ii) and (iii), no Party may, and each Party shall cause the members of its Group not to, waive, nor allege or purport to waive, any Privilege which could be asserted under any applicable Law, and in which a member of the Group of the other Party has a shared Privilege, without the written consent of such other Party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(ii) In the event of any litigation or dispute between or among the Parties, or any other members of their respective Groups, neither internal nor external counsel for the members of any Group, including with regard to the transactions contemplated herein, shall be subject to disqualification. In the event of any litigation or dispute between or among the Parties or any other members of their respective Groups, each Party agrees not to, and to cause the members of its Group not to, request disqualification of any employee of any Party from providing legal services to its employer on the basis that it was a former employee of the other Party.

(iii) If a dispute arises between or among the Parties or their respective Subsidiaries regarding whether a Privilege should be waived to protect or advance the interest of any Party, each Party agrees that it shall negotiate in good faith, shall endeavor to minimize any prejudice to the rights of the other Party, and shall not unreasonably withhold consent to any request for waiver by the other Party. Each Party specifically agrees that it shall not withhold consent to waiver for any purpose except to protect its own legitimate interests.

(iv) Upon receipt by a Party or by any Subsidiary thereof of any subpoena, discovery or other request which arguably calls for the production or disclosure of Privileged Information subject to a shared Privilege or as to which the other Party has the sole right hereunder to assert a Privilege, or if a Party obtains knowledge that any of its or any of its Subsidiaries’ current or former directors, officers, agents or employees have received any subpoena, discovery or other requests which arguably calls for the production or disclosure of such Privileged Information, such Party shall promptly notify the other Party of the existence of the request and shall provide such other Party a reasonable opportunity to review the Privileged Information and to assert any rights such

other Party may have under this Section 6.04 or otherwise to prevent the production or disclosure of such Privileged Information.

(d) The transfer of all information pursuant to this Agreement is made in reliance on the agreement of the Parties as set forth in this Section 6.04, to maintain the confidentiality of Privileged Information and to assert and maintain any applicable Privilege. The access to information being granted pursuant to Sections 6.01, 6.02 and 6.05, the agreement to provide witnesses and individuals pursuant to Section 6.03, and the transfer of Privileged Information between the Parties and their respective Subsidiaries pursuant to this Agreement or any other Transaction Document shall not be deemed a waiver of any Privilege that has been or may be asserted under this Agreement or otherwise.

Section 6.05 Financial Statements and Accounting.

(a) Each of ATUS and ANV agrees to provide the other Party and its auditors reasonable assistance and reasonable access to its and its Subsidiaries’ properties, books and records, other information and personnel set forth in this Section 6.05, from the Effective Time until the completion of each Party’s respective audit for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2018, (i) in connection with the preparation and audit of each Party’s respective quarterly and annual financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018, and (ii) to the extent reasonably necessary to respond (and for the limited purpose of responding) to any written request or official comment from a Governmental Authority;

(b) So long as both of ATUS and ANV are controlled by (i) Patrick Drahi, his heirs or Persons directly or indirectly under his or their control or formed for his or their benefit or (ii) an Affiliate of Patrick Drahi, his heirs or Persons directly or indirectly under his or their control or formed for his or their benefit, each of ATUS and ANV agrees to provide to the other Party and its auditors reasonable assistance, including information reasonably requested, in connection with the preparation of any disclosure regarding related party transactions required to be included in each Party’s quarterly and annual financial statements;

(c) Without limiting subsections (a) and (b) of this Section 6.05, ANV shall provide all historical financial information reasonably requested by ATUS with respect to business operations related to (i) Altice Technical Services US Corp., (ii) i24 News US LLC, (iii) i24 News France S.A.S. and (iv) i24 News S.à r.l.

(d) Except to the extent otherwise contemplated by the Transaction Documents, ATUS shall authorize and request its auditors to make reasonably available to ANV’s auditors the personnel performing its annual audits and work papers related thereto (subject to the execution of any reasonable and customary access letters that such party’s auditors may require in connection with such review of such work papers), in all cases within a reasonable time prior to ANV’s auditors’ opinion date, so that ANV’s auditors are able to perform the procedures they reasonably consider necessary to take responsibility for the work of ATUS’ auditors as it relates to ANV’s auditors’ report on ATUS’ financial statements, all within sufficient time to enable ANV to meet its timetable for the filing of its annual financial statements with the applicable Governmental Authority.

Section 6.06 Ownership of Information. Any information owned by one Party or any of its Subsidiaries that is provided to a requesting Party pursuant to this Article VI shall be deemed to remain the property of the providing party. Unless specifically set forth herein, nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed as granting or conferring rights of license or otherwise in any such information.

Section 6.07 Confidentiality. Notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement, the Parties shall hold, and shall cause each of the members of their respective Groups to hold, and shall each cause its and their other respective Representatives to hold, in strict confidence, and not to disclose or release or use, without the prior written consent of the other Party, any and all Confidential Information concerning the other Party; provided that the Parties may disclose, or may permit disclosure of, Confidential Information (i) to their respective auditors, attorneys, financial advisors, bankers and other appropriate consultants and advisors who have a need to know such information and are informed of their obligation to hold such information confidential to the same extent as is applicable to the Parties and in respect of whose failure to comply with such obligations, the applicable Party will be responsible, (ii) if the Parties or any member of their respective Groups are required or compelled to disclose any such Confidential Information by judicial or administrative process or by other requirements of Law or stock exchange rule, (iii) as required in connection with any legal or other proceeding by one Party against the other Party, or (iv) as necessary in order to permit a Party to prepare and disclose its financial statements, tax returns or other disclosures required by applicable Law, including the rules and regulations of any securities exchange such Party’s securities are traded on. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any demand or request for disclosure of Confidential Information is made pursuant to clause (ii) above, each Party, shall promptly notify the other of the existence of such request or demand and shall provide the other a reasonable opportunity to seek an appropriate protective order or other remedy, which such Parties will cooperate in obtaining. In the event that such appropriate protective order or other remedy is not obtained, the Party whose Confidential Information is required to be disclosed shall or shall cause the other Party to furnish, or cause to be furnished, only that portion of the Confidential Information that is legally required to be disclosed and shall take commercially reasonable steps to ensure that confidential treatment is accorded such information.

Section 6.08 Reimbursement. Except to the extent otherwise contemplated by this Agreement or any other Transaction Document, a Party providing information or access to information to the other Party under this Article VI shall be entitled to receive from the recipient, upon the presentation of invoices therefor, payments for such amounts, relating to supplies, disbursements and other out-of-pocket expenses, as may be reasonably incurred in providing such information or access to such information.

Section 6.09 Liability for Information Provided. No Party shall have any Liability to the other Party in the event that any information exchanged or provided pursuant to this Article VI is found to be inaccurate, in the absence of intentional misconduct by the Party providing such information.

ARTICLE VII

CERTAIN OTHER MATTERS

Section 7.01 Insurance.

(a) ANV and ATUS agree to cooperate in good faith to provide for an orderly transition of the ANV/ATUS Shared Policies from the date hereof through the Effective Time. In no event shall ANV, any other member of the ANV Group or any ANV Indemnified Party have Liability or obligation whatsoever to any member of the ATUS Group in the event that any ANV/ATUS Shared Policy shall be terminated or otherwise cease to be in effect for any reason, shall be unavailable or inadequate to cover any Liability of any member of the ATUS Group for any reason whatsoever or shall not be renewed or extended beyond the current expiration date.

(b) From and after the Effective Time, with respect to any losses, damages and other Liabilities incurred by any member of the ATUS Group prior to the Effective Time, ANV will provide ATUS with access to, and ATUS may make claims under, the ANV/ATUS Shared Policies in place immediately prior to the Effective Time (and any extended reporting for claims made Policies), but solely to the extent that such ANV/ATUS Shared Policies provided coverage for members of the ATUS Group or the ATUS Business prior to the Effective Time; provided that such access to, and the right to make claims under, such ATUS Shared Policies, shall be subject to the terms, conditions and exclusions of such ANV/ATUS Shared Policies, including any limits on coverage or scope, any deductibles, self-insured retentions and other fees and expenses, and shall be subject to the following additional conditions:

(i) ATUS shall notify ANV, as promptly as practicable, of any claim made by ATUS pursuant to this Section 7.01(b);

(ii) ATUS and the members of the ATUS Group shall indemnify, hold harmless and reimburse ANV and the members of the ANV Group for any deductibles, self-insured retention, fees, indemnity payments, settlements, judgments, legal fees, allocated claims expenses and claim handling fees, and other expenses incurred by ANV or any members of the ANV Group to the extent resulting from any access to, or any claims made by ATUS or any other members of the ATUS Group under, any ANV/ATUS Shared Policy pursuant to this Section 7.01(b), whether such claims are made by ATUS or its employees; and

(iii) ATUS shall exclusively bear (and neither ANV nor any members of the ANV Group shall have any obligation to repay or reimburse ATUS or any member of the ATUS Group for) and shall be liable for all excluded, uninsured, uncovered, unavailable or uncollectible amounts of all such claims made by ATUS or any member of the ATUS Group under the ANV/ATUS Shared Policies as provided for in this Section 7.01(b). In the event an insurance policy aggregate is exhausted, or believed likely to be exhausted, due to noticed claims, the ATUS Group, on the one hand, and the ANV Group, on the other hand, shall be responsible for their pro rata portion of the reinstatement premium, if any, based upon the losses of such Group submitted to insurance carriers (including any submissions prior to the Effective Time) of the applicable ANV/ATUS Shared Policy. To the extent that the ANV Group or the ATUS Group is allocated more than its pro rata portion of such premium due to the timing of losses submitted to the insurance carrier of the applicable ANV/ATUS Shared Policy, the other Party shall promptly pay the first Party an amount so that each Group has been properly allocated its pro rata portion of the

reinstatement premium. Subject to the following sentence, a Party may elect not to reinstate the policy aggregate. In the event that a Party elects not to reinstate the policy aggregate, it shall provide prompt written notice to the other Party. A Party which elects to reinstate the policy aggregate shall be responsible for all reinstatement premiums and other costs associated with such reinstatement.

(c) Except as provided in Section 7.01(b), from and after the Effective Time, neither ATUS nor any member of the ATUS Group shall have any rights to or under any of the Policies of ANV or any other member of the ANV Group.

(d) All payments and reimbursements by ATUS pursuant to this Section 7.01 will be made within forty-five (45) days after ATUS’s receipt of an invoice therefor from ANV. ANV shall retain the exclusive right to control its Policies, including the right to exhaust, settle, release, commute, buyback or otherwise resolve disputes with respect to any of its Policies and to amend, modify or waive any rights under any such insurance policies and programs, notwithstanding whether any such policies or programs apply to any ATUS Liabilities and/or claims ATUS has made or could make in the future, and no member of the ATUS Group shall erode, exhaust, settle, release, commute, buyback or otherwise resolve disputes with ANV’s insurers with respect to any ANV/ATUS Shared Policy, or amend, modify or waive any rights under any such ANV/ATUS Shared Policies. ATUS shall cooperate with ANV and share such information as is reasonably necessary in order to permit ANV to manage and conduct its insurance matters as ANV deems appropriate. ANV shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain extended reporting for any claims made Policies or portions of Policies with claims made coverage features for acts or omissions by any member of the ATUS Group incurred prior to the Effective Time. For the avoidance of doubt, each Party and any member of its applicable Group has the sole right to settle or otherwise resolve third-party claims made against it or any member of its applicable Group covered under an applicable ANV/ATUS Shared Policy.

(e) This Agreement shall not be considered as an attempted assignment of any ANV/ATUS Shared Policy or as a contract of insurance and shall not be construed to waive any right or remedy of any member of the ANV Group in respect of any ANV/ATUS Shared Policy.

(f) ATUS does hereby, for itself and each other member of the ATUS Group, agree that no member of the ANV Group shall have any Liability whatsoever as a result of the ANV/ATUS Shared Policy and insurance practices of ANV and the members of the ANV Group as in effect at any time, including as a result of the level or scope of any such insurance, the creditworthiness of any insurance carrier, the terms and conditions of any policy, or the adequacy or timeliness of any notice to any insurance carrier with respect to any claim or potential claim or otherwise.

Section 7.02 Bulk Sales Laws. Each Party hereby waives compliance by each member of its Group with the requirements and provisions of the “bulk-sale” or “bulk-transfer” Laws of any jurisdiction that may otherwise be applicable with respect to any of the transactions contemplated in this Agreement.

Section 7.03 Corporate Opportunities. ANV shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, comply with the terms of the Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (as it

may be amended from time to time) applicable to it, including the provisions of Article V (Corporate Opportunities).

Section 7.04 Further Actions.

(a) Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Parties shall, and shall cause their respective Subsidiaries to, use their commercially reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all appropriate action, to do, or cause to be done, and to assist and cooperate with the other Party in doing, all things necessary, proper or advisable under applicable Law to execute and deliver the Transaction Documents and such other documents and other papers as may be required to carry out the provisions of this Agreement and to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(b) From time to time after the Distribution Date, without additional consideration, each Party shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, execute and deliver such further instruments and take such other action as may be necessary or is reasonably requested by the other Party to make effective the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents. Without limiting the foregoing, upon reasonable request of a Party, the other Party shall, and shall cause its respective Subsidiaries to, execute, acknowledge and deliver all such further assurances, deeds, assignments, consequences, powers of attorney and other instruments and papers as may be required for the transfer of direct or indirect ownership of the applicable Transferred Assets, as contemplated by this Agreement.

If any Dispute is not resolved pursuant to Section 8.01, the Party that delivered the Officer Negotiation Request shall provide written notice of such Dispute to the Chief Executive Officer of each Party (a “CEO Negotiation Request”). As soon as reasonably practicable following receipt of a CEO Negotiation Request,

the Chief Executive Officers of the Parties shall begin conducting good faith negotiations with respect to such Dispute. All such negotiations shall be confidential and shall be treated as compromise and settlement negotiations for purposes of applicable rules of evidence. If the Chief Executive Officers of the Parties are unable for any reason to resolve a Dispute within sixty (60) days of receipt of a CEO Negotiation Request, and such sixty (60) day period is not extended by mutual written consent of the Parties, the Dispute shall be submitted to arbitration in accordance with Section 8.03.

Section 8.03 Arbitration.

(a) In the event that a Dispute has not been resolved within sixty (60) days of the receipt of a CEO Negotiation Request in accordance with Section 8.02, or within such longer period as the Parties may agree to in writing, except if the relevant Transaction Document provides otherwise, then such Dispute shall, upon the written request of a Party (the “Arbitration Request”) be submitted to be finally resolved by binding arbitration pursuant to the then-current Rules of Arbitration of the International Court of Arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce, except as modified herein (the “Arbitration Rules”). The arbitration shall be held in (i) Paris, France or (ii) such other place as the Parties may mutually agree in writing. The legal seat of the arbitration shall be New York, NY. Unless otherwise agreed by the Parties in writing, any Dispute to be decided pursuant to this Section 8.03 will be decided by binding arbitration (x) before a sole arbitrator if the amount in dispute, inclusive of all claims and counterclaims, totals less than $10,000,000; or (y) by a panel of three (3) arbitrators if the amount in dispute, inclusive of all claims and counterclaims, totals $10,000,000 or more.

(b) The panel of three (3) arbitrators will be chosen as follows: (i) within fifteen (15) days from the date of the receipt of the Arbitration Request, each Party will name an arbitrator who shall have such qualifications as the Parties may mutually agree from time to time; and (ii) the two (2) Party-appointed arbitrators will thereafter, within thirty (30) days from the date on which the second of the two (2) arbitrators was named, name a third, independent arbitrator who will act as chairperson of the arbitral tribunal. In the event that either Party fails to name an arbitrator within fifteen (15) days from the date of receipt of the Arbitration Request, then upon written application by either Party, that arbitrator shall be appointed pursuant to the Arbitration Rules. In the event that the two (2) Party-appointed arbitrators fail to appoint the third, then the third, independent arbitrator will be appointed pursuant to the Arbitration Rules. If the arbitration will be before a sole independent arbitrator, then the sole independent arbitrator will be appointed by agreement of the Parties within fifteen (15) days of the date of receipt of the Arbitration Request. If the Parties cannot agree to a sole independent arbitrator, then upon written application by either Party, the sole independent arbitrator will be appointed pursuant to the Arbitration Rules; provided that the arbitrator shall have such qualifications as the Parties may mutually agree from time to time.

(c) The arbitrator(s) will have the right to award, on an interim basis, or include in the final award, any relief which it deems proper in the circumstances, including money damages (with interest on unpaid amounts from the due date), injunctive relief (including specific performance) and attorneys’ fees and costs; provided that the arbitrator(s) will not award any relief not specifically requested by the Parties and, in any event, will not award any indirect, punitive, exemplary, remote, speculative or similar damages in excess of compensatory damages

of the other arising in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby (other than any such Liability with respect to a claim by a Person who is not a member of the ANV Group or the ATUS Group). Upon selection of the arbitrator(s) following any grant of interim relief by a special arbitrator or court pursuant to Section 8.04, the arbitrator(s) may affirm or disaffirm that relief, and the Parties will seek modification or rescission of the order entered by the court as necessary to accord with the decision of the arbitrator(s). The award of the arbitrator(s) shall be final and binding on the Parties, and may be enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction. The initiation of arbitration pursuant to this Article VIII will toll the applicable statute of limitations for the duration of any such proceedings.

Section 8.04 Litigation and Unilateral Commencement of Arbitration. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Article VIII, (a) a Party may seek preliminary provisional or injunctive judicial relief with respect to a Dispute without first complying with the procedures set forth in Section 8.01, Section 8.02 and Section 8.03 if such action is reasonably necessary to avoid irreparable damage and (b) either Party may initiate arbitration before the expiration of the periods specified in Section 8.01, Section 8.02 and/or Section 8.03 if such Party has submitted an Officer Negotiation Request, a CEO Negotiation Request and/or an Arbitration Request and the other Party has failed to comply with Section 8.01, Section 8.02 and/or Section 8.03 in good faith with respect to such negotiation and/or the commencement and engagement in arbitration. In such event, the other Party may commence and prosecute such arbitration unilaterally in accordance with the Arbitration Rules. Immediately following the issuance of any preliminary provisional or injunctive relief pursuant to clause (a), the Party seeking such relief will consent to the stay of any judicial proceedings pending the resolution of the Dispute pursuant to the procedures set forth in Section 8.01, Section 8.02 and Section 8.03.

Section 8.05 Conduct During Dispute Resolution Process. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, the Parties shall, and shall cause the respective members of their Groups to, continue to honor all commitments under this Agreement and each Transaction Document to the extent required by such agreements during the course of dispute resolution pursuant to the provisions of this Article VIII, unless such commitments are the specific subject of the Dispute at issue.
