• Board Observers At any time during which there is an outstanding balance on the Tranche A Term Loan (as such capitalized term is defined in that certain Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated October 15, 2009 (the “Credit Agreement”), among Xxxxxx Communications Company, LLC, Xxxxxx Publishing Group, LLC, the Lenders party thereto, and Tranche Manager, LLC, as Administrative Agent), Tranche Holdings, LLC, or its designee, shall be entitled to designate one (1) nonvoting observer (the “Observer”) to the Company’s Board of Directors and to all committees thereof. Such Observer shall be entitled to attend all Board meetings (which meetings shall generally be held telephonically) but will not be entitled to vote at any Board meeting. Such Observer shall be entitled to receive all consents, proposed consents or Board actions, documents, materials, information and notices (whether or not in writing) provided to the Board; provided, however, that the Company reserves the right to exclude such Observer from access to any material or meeting or portion thereof (only if the Observer is notified of such withholding) if the Board votes in good faith after advice of counsel, that such exclusion is necessary (taking into account any confidentiality agreements that such Observer has executed or is willing to execute): (a) to preserve the attorney-client privilege; (b) to prevent a breach by the Board of Directors of its fiduciary duties; or (c) to avoid the impairment of the Company’s ability to enforce its rights under this Agreement in any bona fide dispute with the Observer. Such Observer may be removed from office only by Tranche Holdings, LLC, except that the Observer may be removed for cause by the Board of Directors in the event of willful misconduct or material breach of any confidentiality agreement with the Company or its affiliates; provided such Observer shall not be removed for cause until after Tranche Holdings, LLC has been notified of the Board’s intent to remove such person for cause and is given Tranche Holdings, LLC a reasonable amount of time to appoint another person as an Observer. Upon the payment and satisfaction in full of Tranche A Term Loan, Tranche Holdings, LLC shall cease to possess the right to designate an Observer, and any Observer so designated will automatically and without further action be removed from the Board.

The Investor representative shall be entitled to receive all written materials and other information (including without limitation copies of meeting minutes) given to directors in connection with such meetings at the same time such materials and information are given to the directors; provided, however, that the Company shall have the right to provide information to the Investor representative if, in the good faith judgment of the Company’s counsel, the provision of such information to the Investor representative would result in the waiver of any applicable privilege. If the Company proposes to take any action by written consent in lieu of a meeting of its Board of Directors or of any committee thereof, the Company shall give written notice thereof to the Investor representative and each of the Company’s directors prior to the effective date of such consent describing in reasonable detail the nature and substance of such action. The Company shall pay the reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of the Investor representative incurred in connection with attending such board and committee meetings. This covenant shall be a reconfirmation of that similar right granted in the Prior Agreement and shall not be construed to grant the Investor and its Affiliates an additional observer right.

As long as the Purchaser owns at least five percent (5%) of the Securities originally purchased hereunder, if Company is not required to file reports pursuant to such laws, it will prepare and furnish to the Purchaser and simultaneously make publicly available in accordance with Rule 144(c) such information as is required for the Purchaser to sell the Securities under Rule 144. Company further covenants that it will take such further action as any holder of Securities may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable the Purchaser to sell the Securities without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rule 144. If Company fails to remain current in its reporting obligations or to provide currently publicly available information in accordance with Rule 144(c) and such failure extends for a period of more than fifteen Trading Days (the date which such fifteen Trading Day-period is exceeded, being referred to as “Event Date”), then in addition to any other rights the Purchaser may have hereunder or under applicable law, on each such Event Date and on each monthly anniversary of each such Event Date (if the applicable Event shall not have been cured by such date) until the information failure is cured, Company shall pay to the Purchaser an amount in cash, as partial liquidated damages and not as a penalty, equal to one percent (1%) of purchase price paid for the Securities held by the Purchaser at the Event Date. The partial liquidated damages pursuant to the terms hereof shall apply on a daily pro-rata basis for any portion of a month prior to the cure of an information failure (except in the case of the first Event Date).

• Board Observation Rights To the extent the Combination Closing Date has occurred, Required Purchasers shall be entitled to designate one observer (the “Board Observer”) to attend any regular meeting (a “BOD Meeting”) of the Board of Directors of the Acquiror (or, in each case, any relevant committees thereof), except that the Board Observer shall not be entitled to vote on matters presented to or discussed by the Board of Directors (or any relevant committee thereof) of the Acquiror at any such meetings. The Board Observer shall be timely notified of the time and place of any BOD Meetings and will be given written notice of all proposed actions to be taken by the Board of Directors (or any relevant committee thereof) of the Acquiror as if the Board Observer were a member thereof. Such notice shall describe in reasonable detail the nature and substance of the matters to be discussed and/or voted upon at such meeting (or the proposed actions to be taken by written consent without a meeting). The Board Observer shall have the right to receive all information provided to the members of the Board of Directors or any similar group performing an executive oversight or similar function (or any relevant committee thereof) of the Acquiror in anticipation of or at such meeting (regular or special and whether telephonic or otherwise), in addition to copies of the records of the proceedings or minutes of such meeting, when provided to the members, and the Board Observer shall keep such materials and information confidential in accordance with Section 12.07. The Issuer shall reimburse the Board Observer for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with its participation in any such BOD Meeting. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuer may exclude Board Observer from access to any material or meeting or portion thereof if: (i) the Board of Directors concludes in good faith, upon advice of the Acquiror’s counsel, that such exclusion is necessary to preserve the attorney-client or work product privilege between the Acquiror or any of its Affiliates and its counsel; or (ii) such portion of a meeting is an executive session limited solely to independent director members of the Board or Directors, independent auditors and/or legal counsel, as the Board of Directors may designate and such limitation is reasonably necessary with respect to the applicable matters, or (iii) such exclusion is necessary to avoid a conflict of interest between the Acquiror on the one hand and the Required Purchasers on the other.
