9.3

Procedure.

(a) Notice. Any Party seeking indemnification with respect to any Loss (the “Indemnified Party”) shall give notice to the Party or Parties required to provide indemnity hereunder (the “Indemnifying Party”); provided, however, that any failure to give such notice will not affect the Indemnified Party’s rights to be indemnified hereunder except to the extent the rights of the Indemnifying Party are actually prejudiced.

(b) Defense. If any claim, demand or liability is asserted by any third party against any Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying Party may, and shall upon the written request of the Indemnified Party, defend any actions or proceedings brought against the Indemnified Party in respect of matters embraced by the indemnity with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party. In the event an Indemnifying Party shall retain such counsel, an Indemnified Party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and disbursements of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Party unless (i) the Indemnifying Party and such Indemnified Party shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel or (ii) in the Indemnified Party’s reasonable judgment, it is advisable, based on advice of counsel, for the Indemnified Party to be represented by separate counsel because a conflict or potential conflict exists between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party. If, after a request to defend any action or proceeding, the Indemnifying Party neglects to defend the Indemnified Party, a recovery against the latter suffered by it in good faith, shall be conclusive in its favor against the Indemnifying Party. The Indemnifying Party shall not consent to the entry of a judgment or enter into any settlement of any claim, demand, lawsuit, allegation or liability asserted by any third party against the Indemnified Party other than a judgment or settlement involving only the payment of money, except with the written consent of the Indemnified Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

(c) Treatment of Indemnity Payments. The Parties hereto agree to treat all indemnification payments as adjustments to the Purchase Price to the extent permitted by law.

9.4

Certain General Provisions.

(a) Any Indemnifiable Claim under this Article IX with respect to any inaccuracy in, or breach or nonperformance by either Party of, a representation, warranty, covenant or agreement shall be limited to the amount of the actual Losses sustained by the Indemnified Party by reason of such inaccuracy, breach or nonperformance, net of any insurance proceeds received

by the Indemnified Party. In no event shall an Indemnified Party be entitled to recover for Losses under more than one provision in respect of any one Indemnifiable Claim.

(b) The remedies provided for in this Article IX shall, in the absence of fraud, constitute the sole and exclusive remedy for any post-Closing claims made for inaccuracies in, or breaches of, any representations or warranties made by the Parties, or breaches or nonperformance of covenants or obligations of the Parties, under this Agreement. Each Party hereby waives any provision of Law to the extent that it would limit or restrict the agreement contained in this Section.

(c) If any Party had knowledge prior to the execution of this Agreement that any representation or warranty of the other Party contained in this Agreement was not true and correct as of the date hereof, it may not assert such breach of a representation and warranty (a) as a basis not to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or (b) as a basis for an indemnification claim under Article IX. For purposes of this Section 9.4(c), Buyer shall be deemed to have “knowledge” only if one of the following individuals had actual knowledge of the failure of such representation or warranty to be true and correct based on information provided by Seller: Giancarlo Aliberti, Matthias Calice, Philippe Costeletos and Nikos Stathopoulos.

(d) The Parties shall cooperate with each other with respect to resolving any claim or liability with respect to which one Party is obligated to indemnify the other Party hereunder, including by making commercially reasonable efforts to resolve any such claim or liability. In the event that any Party shall willfully fail to make such commercially reasonable efforts to resolve any claim or liability, then notwithstanding anything else to the contrary contained herein, the other Party shall not be required to indemnify any Person for any Loss that could reasonably be expected to have been avoided if such Party, as the case may be, had made such efforts.

(e) Any refunds or credits of Taxes received by the Company attributable to Taxes for any period ending on or before December 31, 2004 (“Pre-2005 Refunds”) for which Seller could be liable under Article IX (taking into account Seller’s respective sharing percentages of Tax liabilities as provided in Sections 9.1(b) and (c)) shall be paid to Seller. For the avoidance of doubt, Seller shall be entitled to payment hereunder for an amount equal to (i) 90.00% of Pre-2005 Refunds received by the Company until aggregate Pre-2005 Refunds received are equal to the reserve for Taxes described in Section 9.1(b), and (ii) 80.00% of Pre-2005 Refunds received by the Company thereafter. Upon Seller’s request and based on a reasonable determination by the Company that (i) the Company has a reasonable basis for claiming a material refund or credit for a Pre-2005 Refund and (ii) the Company would not suffer a material offsetting prejudicial Tax effect, Buyer shall, and shall cause the Company to, reasonably cooperate with filing for and claiming such Pre-2005 Refunds. Seller shall be responsible for its own expenses and reimburse the Company for its reasonable expenses (including the cost of accountants and counsel) incurred in filing for and claiming such Pre-2005 Refunds. Buyer shall, and shall cause the Company to, permit Seller to control the administration and settlement of such Pre-2005 Refund claims, but Seller shall provide the Company notice of, and allow the Company to participate in, the claim administration and settlement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) Seller shall not be entitled to settle any claim in a manner that may affect the liability for Taxes of the Company in

a manner adverse to the Company either (x) for which Seller does not have an indemnification obligation under Article IX, or (y) for any period ending after December 31, 2004, to any extent (including, but not limited to, the imposition of income Tax deficiencies, the reduction of asset basis or cost adjustments, the lengthening of any amortization or depreciation periods, the denial of amortization or depreciation deductions, or the reduction of loss or credit carryforwards) without the prior written consent of the Company, and (ii) the Company shall control the administration and settlement of any refund claim upon its reasonable determination that a material offsetting prejudicial Tax effect has developed (or may develop) since the initiation of such claim. Buyer shall, and shall cause the Company, to notify Seller of any notice it receives that the Company may be entitled to a material refund or credit for Pre-2005 Refunds and to respond to any reasonable inquiry from Seller regarding the existence of any state of facts that would constitute a reasonable basis for claiming a Pre-2005 Refund. Buyer shall, and shall cause the Company, to promptly remit amounts due under this Section 9.4(e) to the Seller.

ARTICLE X

GENERAL

10.1

Amendments; Waivers.

This Agreement and any schedule or exhibit attached hereto may be amended only by agreement in writing of all Parties. No waiver of any provision nor consent to any exception to the terms of this Agreement shall be effective unless in writing and signed by the Party to be bound and then only for the specific purpose, extent and instance so provided.

10.2

Schedules; Exhibits; Integration.

Each schedule and exhibit delivered pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall be in writing and shall constitute a part of this Agreement, although schedules need not be attached to each copy of this Agreement. The mere inclusion of an item in the Disclosure Schedule as an exception to a representation or warranty shall not be deemed an admission by Seller that such item represents an exception or material fact, event or circumstance or that such item is reasonably likely to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Further, any fact or item which is clearly disclosed on any Section of the Disclosure Schedule to this Agreement in such a way as to make its relevance or applicability to information called for by another Section of the Disclosure Schedule (or section thereof) to this Agreement reasonably apparent shall be deemed to be disclosed on such other Section of the Disclosure Schedule, notwithstanding the omission of a reference or cross-reference thereto. This Agreement, together with such schedules and exhibits and the Equity Financing Commitment, constitute the entire agreement among the Parties pertaining to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings of the Parties in connection therewith, except for the Confidentiality Agreement, which remains in full force and effect in accordance with Section 10.9.

10.3

Commercially Reasonable Efforts; Further Assurances.

(a) Each Party will use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause all conditions to its obligations hereunder to be timely satisfied and to perform and fulfill all obligations on its part to be performed and fulfilled under this Agreement, to the end that the transactions

contemplated by this Agreement shall be effected substantially in accordance with its terms as soon as reasonably practicable. The Parties shall cooperate with each other in such actions and in securing requisite Approvals. Each Party shall execute and deliver both before and after the Closing such further certificates, agreements and other documents and take such other actions as the other Party may reasonably request to consummate or implement the transactions contemplated hereby or to evidence such events or matters.

(b) As used in this Agreement, the term “commercially reasonable efforts” shall not mean efforts which require the performing Party to do any act that is unreasonable under the circumstances, to make any capital contribution or to expend any funds other than reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in satisfying its obligations hereunder, including but not limited to the fees, expenses and disbursements of its accountants, actuaries, counsel and other professionals.

10.4

Governing Law and Arbitration.

(a) This Agreement, the legal relations between the Parties and any Action, whether contractual or non-contractual, instituted by any Party with respect to matters arising under or growing out of or in connection with or in respect of this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York (including without limitation Section 5-1401 of the General Obligations Law of the State of New York) applicable to contracts made and performed in such State and without regard to conflicts of law or private international law rules.

(b) Any dispute, claim or controversy arising from, relating to, or in connection with this Agreement, including without limitation any question regarding its existence, validity, termination, or the performance or breach thereof, shall be referred to and finally resolved and settled by arbitration administered by International Chamber of Commerce International Court of Arbitration (the “ICC”), in accordance with ICC Rules of Arbitration in effect at the time of the arbitration, which rules are deemed to be incorporated by reference into this clause except as they may be modified herein or by agreement of the Parties. Each Party hereby irrevocably waives its right to commence any proceedings in any court with respect to any matter subject to arbitration under this Agreement. The arbitral tribunal shall consist of three arbitrators, all three of whom shall be lawyers. Each Party shall nominate one arbitrator and deliver written notification of such nomination to the other Party and to the ICC within thirty days after delivery of a request for arbitration. In the event a Party fails to nominate an arbitrator or deliver notification of such nomination to the other Party and to the ICC within this time period, upon request of either Party, such arbitrator shall instead be appointed by the ICC within thirty days of receiving such request in accordance with the Rules of Arbitration. The two arbitrators appointed in accordance with the above provisions shall nominate the third arbitrator and notify the Parties and the ICC in writing of such nomination within fifteen days of their appointment. If the first two appointed arbitrators fail to nominate a third arbitrator or notify the Parties and the ICC of that nomination within this time period, then, upon request of either Party, the third arbitrator shall be appointed by the ICC within fifteen days of receiving such request in accordance with the Rules of Arbitration. The third arbitrator shall serve as Chairman of the arbitral tribunal. The place of arbitration shall be New York, NY. The language of the arbitration shall be English. No arbitrator shall be an Affiliate, employee, officer or director of

either Party or of their respective Affiliates, nor shall any Arbitrator have any interest that would be affected in any material respect by the outcome of the dispute. The decision of a majority of the arbitrators shall be final and binding on the Parties and their respective successors and assigns. The decision shall not be subject to appeal. The arbitral tribunal shall determine the proportions in which the Parties shall pay the fees and expenses of the arbitral tribunal. The Parties hereby agree that the arbitral tribunal shall have the power to award equitable remedies (including specific performance). Nothing in this section shall be construed as preventing either Party from seeking conservatory or similar interim relief in aid of arbitration, including but not limited to a preliminary injunction or attachment in aid of the arbitration, in any court of competent jurisdiction. A request for such interim or conservatory measure by a Party to a court shall not be deemed a waiver of this agreement to arbitrate.

(c) Except as set forth in the penultimate sentence of the preceding paragraph, by signing this Agreement, the Parties are agreeing to have all disputes, claims or controversies arising out of or relating to this Agreement decided by arbitration, and are waiving any rights they might possess to have those matters litigated in a court or jury trial. Each Party’s agreement to this arbitration is voluntary.

10.5

No Assignment.

This Agreement and all of the provisions hereof shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of each of the Parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns, and such successors and permitted assigns shall have the benefit of the indemnities set forth herein. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 10.5, this Agreement and the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall not be assigned by any Party without the prior written consent of the other Parties, and any attempt to assign this Agreement without such consent shall be void and of no effect. Notwithstanding the provisions of the preceding sentence, the Parties agree that each Party may assign this Agreement to any of its Affiliates, provided that the assigning Party remains jointly liable with the assignee for any breach by the latter of any provision of this Agreement, and that Buyer may assign its rights by way of security to any lender or financier in connection with the financing or re-financing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

10.6

Headings.

The descriptive headings of the Articles, Sections and subsections of this Agreement are for convenience only and do not constitute a part of this Agreement.

10.7

Counterparts.

This Agreement and any amendment hereto or any other agreement delivered pursuant hereto may be executed by facsimile in one or more counterparts and by different Parties in separate counterparts. All of such counterparts shall constitute one and the same agreement and shall become effective (unless otherwise provided therein) when one or more counterparts have been signed by each Party hereto and each such Party has received counterparts hereof signed by all of the other Parties.

10.8

Publicity and Reports.

Prior to the Closing, Seller and Buyer shall coordinate all publicity relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and no Party nor any Affiliate of either Party shall issue any press release, public statement, public notice, filing or other communication relating to this Agreement, or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, without obtaining the prior written consent of Seller and Buyer, except (i) any filings (which may include a copy of this Agreement) on Schedule 13D with the SEC as required by Section 13(d) under the Exchange Act and (ii) to the extent that independent legal counsel to Seller or Buyer, as the case may be, shall reasonably determine that a particular action is required by applicable Law or stock exchange rules (including NASDAQ and Euronext, with respect to the Company). In case of issuance of a press release, public statement, public notice, filing or other communication to the public is required by applicable Law, the Party to which such requirement refers shall, prior to issuing such communication or press release (if such Party deems practicable, acting reasonably), promptly consult with the other Party in connection with the relevant disclosure requirement and shall, without limiting its right to act in such manner as it deems necessary to comply with Law, take into due account the other Party’s reasonable requests as to the timing, content and manner of any such communication or press release.

10.9

Confidentiality.

Except as stated in Section 10.8, each Party hereto agrees to be bound by the provisions of the Non-Disclosure Agreement, entered into on June 25, 2003 between Telecom Italia Mobile S.p.A., Seller and Apax Partners Ltd., and executed by Texas Pacific Group Europe LLP on December 9, 2004 (the “Confidentiality Agreement”), the terms and conditions of which are incorporated herein by reference.

If this Agreement is terminated, each Party shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to return upon written request from the other Party all documents (and reproductions thereof) received by it or its Representatives from such other Party (and, in the case of reproductions, all such reproductions made by the receiving Party) that include information which is confidential in accordance with Section 5 of the Confidentiality Agreement, unless the recipients provide assurances reasonably satisfactory to the requesting Party that such documents have been destroyed, save as the recipient Party is required to retain pursuant to applicable Law. The covenants and agreements of the parties contained in Section 10.9 will survive the termination of this Agreement or, if earlier, the Closing, for a period of two (2) years following such date, provided, however, that following the Closing the restrictions contained in Section 10.9 will not apply to Buyer’s use of Confidential Information (as such term is defined in the Confidentiality Agreement) concerning the Company furnished by or on behalf of Seller pursuant to the Confidentiality Agreement.

10.10

Parties in Interest; Third Party Beneficiary.

This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of each Party and, as applicable, any successor or permitted assignee of any Party, and nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any other person any rights or remedies of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement.

10.11

Any notice or other communication hereunder must be given in writing and (a) delivered in person, (b) transmitted by telefax or telecommunications mechanism, provided that any notice so given is also mailed as provided in clause (c) or (c) mailed by overnight mail, postage prepaid or by certified or registered mail, postage prepaid, and return receipt requested as follows:

10.13

Remedies; Waiver.

Except to the extent this Section 10.13 is inconsistent with any other provision in this Agreement or applicable law, all rights and remedies existing under this Agreement are cumulative to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies otherwise available under applicable Law. No failure on the part of any Party to exercise or delay in exercising any right hereunder shall be deemed a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise preclude any further or other exercise of such or any other right.

10.14

Severability.

If any provision of this Agreement is determined to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable by any Public Authority, the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.

10.15

Specific Performance.

The Parties hereby acknowledge and agree that the failure of a Party to perform its agreements and covenants hereunder, including its failure to take all actions as are necessary on its part to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, will cause irreparable injury to the other Party, for which damages, even if available, will not be an adequate remedy. Accordingly, both Parties hereby consents to the issuance of injunctive relief by an arbitral tribunal in accordance with Section 10.4 to compel performance of such Party’s obligations and to the granting by any such arbitral tribunal of the remedy of specific performance of its obligations hereunder, in addition to any other rights or remedies available hereunder or at law or in equity.

10.16

No Punitive Damages.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement, no Party (or its Affiliates) shall, in any event, be liable to any other Party (or its Affiliates) for any extraordinary, consequential, exemplary, special, indirect, incidental or punitive damages, including but not limited to, loss of revenue or income, cost of capital or loss of business reputation or opportunity, relating to the breach or alleged breach of this Agreement, except to the extent that such liability is in respect of an indemnity obligation to hold such Party harmless against extraordinary, consequential, exemplary, special, indirect, incidental or punitive damages that the Indemnified Party was actually required to pay to a third party who is not an Affiliate of such Party.

10.17

Knowledge of Seller.

Where any representation or warranty of Seller is qualified “to the knowledge of,” or “to the best knowledge of” Seller, Seller is making such representation or warranty based on (i) the actual knowledge of Seller’s senior executive officers and (ii) the knowledge of the members of the Company’s board of directors appointed or designated by Seller, after due inquiry, and Seller has otherwise performed no other inquiry or review of the matters in respect of which such representation or warranty is delivered.

10.18

Although the Parties may translate this Agreement into different languages, the governing version shall be the English language version.
