4.3.7 Satellite or Transponder Failure. Unless due to OCV's breach of this Agreement or its gross negligence or willful misconduct, if the Satellite or Satellite Transponder fails, the Parties agree that the following terms apply:

(a) Irreparable Failure. If (i) the Satellite Transponder or Satellite fails and such failure is irreparable as determined by the Satellite Provider, (ii) the Satellite Transponder or Satellite is unavailable due to actions of a Governmental Authority, or (iii) a change of Satellite Transponder is mandated by the Satellite Provider, then Ascent shall take all reasonable measures to exercise its right under the Satellite Access Agreement to secure access on an alternative Ku-band transponder on the Satellite or, if unavailable, on a Ku-Band transponder on a different satellite of the Satellite Provider then in orbit. In exercising its rights under the Satellite Access Agreement, Ascent shall take all reasonable measures to secure an alternative Ku-band transponder on the same polarity as the Satellite Transponder, if available. If the Satellite Provider does not provide an alterative transponder, Ascent shall take all reasonable measures to secure access on an alternative Ku-band transponder (an "Alternative Transponder Agreement"). Ascent shall assume any cost increase in securing access to an alternative transponder, provided, however, that to the extent such cost is more than 50% greater than Ascent's cost under the pre-existing Satellite Access Agreement, then (i) OCV shall pay Ascent's cost in excess of such 50% threshold, and (ii) Ascent shall provide notice of such cost increase prior to entering into such Alternative Transponder Agreement; and (iii) Ascent shall comply with a request by OCV to limit the term of the Alternative Transponder Agreement. In either event, OCV, at its cost, shall re-point and re-tune all current Receive Stations to receive Transmissions from the new transponder. If Ascent is unable to obtain an alternative transponder from the Satellite Provider or an Alternative Transponder Agreement in accordance with the terms of this subsection, but has fully complied with its obligations under this Agreement, it shall be construed as a Force Majeure Event retroactive to the date of failure of the Satellite or Satellite Transponder.

(b) Repairable Satellite or Transponder Failure. If the Satellite Transponder or Satellite fails, and the Satellite Provider has indicated that it will repair such failure within thirty (30) days, OCV and Ascent shall be subject to the Satellite Provider's procedures, and the rights and obligations of Ascent relating to the initiation of Transmissions shall be postponed until such repairs are completed and the terms of Section 12 shall apply. The Parties agree that should the Satellite Transponder or Satellite fail to be operational as required for Ascent to perform its

obligations under this Agreement within thirty (30) days after the date of the Satellite or Satellite Transponder failure, then such failure will be deemed irreparable and the terms of Section 4.3.7(a) above shall apply. Ascent shall use diligent efforts to work with the Satellite Provider toward the timely repair of the Satellite Transponder or Satellite.

4.3.8 New Satellite or Satellite Transponder. Ascent, at its sole cost and expense, may utilize a different Satellite Transponder or Satellite (either, "New Satellite") to fulfill its obligations under this Agreement. If Ascent decides to do so and such decision is not the result of a Satellite or Satellite Transponder Failure, then Ascent shall provide OCV with ninety (90) days prior written notice of its intent to switch to a New Satellite and the following terms shall apply:

(a) Ascent, at its cost, shall re-point and re-tune all current Receive Stations to receive Transmissions from the New Satellite and Ascent shall use commercially reasonable efforts not to disrupt the Content Distribution Services, and in any event shall not disrupt scheduled Transmissions for more than an aggregate of two (2) days.

(b) All terms and conditions of this Agreement relating to the Satellite, Satellite Transponder and Satellite Access Agreement, shall apply to the New Satellite.

(c) Upon providing OCV with written notice of its decision to switch to a New Satellite, the Parties will work together to develop a plan to assess and minimize the impact, if any, on Ascent's ability to perform Content Distribution Services under this Agreement. Ascent shall not switch to a New Satellite if Ascent reasonably determines that doing so will materially impact Ascent's ability to perform the Content Distribution Services under this Agreement for a period of two (2) days or more, unless Ascent provides Back-Up Services (where such Back-Up Services distribute Packages to the pre-existing Satellite Transponder) at no cost to OCV pursuant to Section 4.1.4 of this Agreement and in compliance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement until all Receive Stations are capable of receiving Transmissions through the New Satellite.

(d) Within fourteen (14) days after the Parties develop the plan described in Section 4.3.8(c) above, if OCV sends written notice to Ascent that OCV reasonably determines that OCV will incur significant expense as a result of the switch to a New Satellite, then Ascent shall not switch access to a New Satellite unless the Parties agree upon reimbursement terms for OCV's expenses.

(e) OCV's failure to send notice pursuant to Section 4.3.8(d) above shall be deemed OCV's approval of Ascent's proposed switch to a New

Satellite subject, however, to Ascent's compliance with the terms of Section 4.3.8.

4.4 Service Level Terms and Conditions. Ascent agrees to provide the services described in the Service Level Terms and Conditions, attached as Exhibit B and incorporated into this Agreement.

other manner consistent with the terms and conditions with this Agreement, subject to Section 13.3 below.
