2.1 Term Loan Commitments.

(a) Term Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Term Loan Lender agrees to make Term Loans (each such term loan being herein called a “Term Loan”) to the Borrower in the full amount of its Term Loan Commitment; provided that Borrowings of Term Loans may only be made (A) at the Effective Time on satisfaction (or waiver in accordance with Section 11.2) of the conditions in Sections 5.1 and 5.2 and (B) on a Term Loan Increase Date pursuant to a Term Loan Increase. Principal amounts of Term Loans that have been repaid or prepaid may not be reborrowed. For the avoidance of doubt, (i) all “Revolving Credit Loans” made under the Existing Credit Agreement and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall either continue to be maintained as Revolving Credit Loans under and governed by the Revolving Credit Agreement or shall be converted into Term Loans under this Agreement and (ii) the parties hereto further agree that on the Closing Date, all unpaid Obligations under the Existing Credit Agreement (including without limitation all unpaid interest, fees and expenses) outstanding as of the Closing Date shall be deemed to be owing under and governed by the Revolving Credit Loan Agreement or under this Agreement, as applicable.

(b) Term Loan Increases.

(i) In the event that the aggregate amount of Senior Commitment Increases is less than the Senior Facilities Maximum Increase Amount, the Borrower shall have the right, at any time and from time to time prior to the Term Loan Maturity Date, by delivering written notice to the Administrative Agent, to request additional Term Loans (a “Term Loan Increase”); provided that the aggregate Term Loan Increases plus the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment Increases shall not at any time exceed the Senior Facilities Maximum Increase Amount.

(ii) Upon receipt of a written request from the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Joint Lead Arrangers shall attempt to arrange and syndicate such Term Loan Increase, by contacting one or more new lenders (the “New Lenders”) or one or more existing Lenders to determine whether such New Lenders desire to make additional Term Loans, and/or whether any such existing Lender, in its sole discretion, desires to increase the aggregate outstanding principal amount of its Term Loans. Each such Term Loan Increase shall be arranged and syndicated by the Administrative Agent

and the Joint Lead Arrangers, and any New Lenders shall be selected by the Administrative Agent and the Joint Lead Arrangers in consultation with the Borrower. The Administrative Agent’s and the Joint Lead Arrangers’ agreements to arrange and syndicate any such Term Loan Increase shall not be deemed to constitute a commitment, or an offer, to provide, such Term Loan Increase or a representation, direct or implied, that such arrangement and syndication will be successful. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent and the Joint Lead Arrangers such fees and expenses in connection with arranging and syndicating each such Term Loan Increase as may be agreed by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Joint Lead Arrangers to achieve a successful syndication of such Term Loan Increase, and no portion of such fees shall be allocable to any Persons other than the Administrative Agent, the Joint Lead Arrangers, Lenders increasing the aggregate outstanding principal amount of their Term Loans or the New Lenders, unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent and the Joint Lead Arrangers. The Administrative Agent and the Joint Lead Arrangers shall have no liability to the Borrower or the Lenders if the Administrative Agent and the Joint Lead Arrangers are unable to successfully arrange and syndicate any requested Term Loan Increase. The Borrower may request Term Loan Increases on any number of occasions, subject to the conditions and provisions set forth herein. No Lender shall have any obligation to increase the aggregate outstanding principal amount of its Term Loans.

(iii) If the Administrative Agent and the Joint Lead Arrangers are able to successfully arrange and syndicate any requested Term Loan Increase, such Term Loan Increase shall become effective on the date specified by the Administrative Agent (each such date being referred to a “Term Loan Increase Date”); provided that (A) no Default shall exist on the Term Loan Increase Date both before and after giving effect to such proposed Term Loan Increase on the Term Loan Increase Date; (B) the Borrower shall have paid all fees and expenses in connection with the arrangement and syndication of such Term Loan Increase and (C) the Borrower shall have delivered or caused to be delivered to the Administrative Agent any certificates or other documents reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent in connection with such Term Loan Increase, provided that the Applicable Margin (which for such purposes only, shall be deemed to include all fees or original issue discount (but not customary upfront fees) payable to all Lenders providing such Term Loan Increase) relating to any Term Loan Increase shall not exceed the Applicable Margin (which for such purposes only, shall be deemed not to include all upfront or similar fees payable to the Lenders of the Term Loans) relating to the Term Loans immediately prior to the Term Loan Increase Date by more than 0.25% per annum. In the event the Administrative Agent and the Joint Lead Arrangers shall be unable to successfully arrange and syndicate any requested Term Loan Increase within thirty days of the date of any written request by the Borrower for such Term Loan Increase, such request by the Borrower shall be deemed to have expired and the Administrative Agent and the Joint Lead Arrangers shall have no further obligation to continue such arrangement and syndication efforts; provided that the expiration of such thirty-day period shall not limit the Borrower’s right to make one or more additional requests for a Term Loan Increase.

(iv) On each Term Loan Increase Date, subject to the satisfaction of the foregoing terms and conditions, and subject to the limitations set forth in clause (v) of

this Section 2.1(b): (w) each New Lender taking part in such Term Loan Increase shall enter into one or more Lender Joinder Agreements or other documents in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, and upon execution of such Lender Joinder Agreements or other documents, such New Lender taking part in such Term Loan Increase shall be deemed to be a “Lender” under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; (x) the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans shall be adjusted to take into account the additional Term Loans of the New Lenders taking part in such Term Loan Increase and the increases, if any, in the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans of the existing Lenders, and (y) each existing Lender who is increasing the outstanding principal amount of its Term Loans shall have returned to the Administrative Agent for cancellation its Term Note, if any, and the Borrower shall have executed and delivered to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of each New Lender taking part in such Term Loan Increase, to the extent requested by such New Lender, and each existing Lender who is increasing the outstanding principal amount of its Term Loans a new Term Note, to the extent requested by such existing Lender in each case, in the aggregate principal amount of such Lender’s outstanding principal amount of its Term Loans after giving effect to the Term Loan Increase. Each of the Lenders hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to revise Schedule 2.1 on each Term Loan Increase Date to reflect such increase without an amendment to this Agreement.

(v) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 2.1(b), in no event shall any Term Loan Increase result in any increase or decrease in the amount of any Lender’s the outstanding principal amount of its Term Loans without such Lender’s prior written consent.

(vi) Each Term Loan made pursuant to a Term Loan Increase will be secured by the Collateral, pari passu with the other Senior Loans and will be deemed to be part of the Guaranteed Obligations under Article 3.

2.2 Loans and Borrowings.

(a) Each Loan shall be made as part of a Borrowing consisting of Loans made by the Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Commitments. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan required to be made by it shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations hereunder; provided that the Commitments of the Lenders are several and no Lender shall be responsible for any other Lender’s failure to make Loans as required.

(b) Subject to Section 2.14, each Borrowing shall be comprised entirely of Base Rate Loans or LIBOR Loans as the Borrower may request in accordance herewith. Each Lender at its option may make any LIBOR Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan; provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(c) At the commencement of each Interest Period for a LIBOR Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount at least equal to $500,000 or any greater multiple of $100,000. At the time that each Base Rate Borrowing is made, such Borrowing

shall be in an aggregate amount that is at least equal to $100,000 or any greater multiple of $100,000. Borrowings of more than one Type may be outstanding at the same time; provided that there shall not at any time be more than a total of ten LIBOR Borrowings outstanding.

2.3 Requests for Borrowings.

(a) To request a Borrowing, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such request in writing (i) in the case of a LIBOR Borrowing, not later than 1:00 p.m., New York time, three Business Days before the date of the proposed Borrowing, or (ii) in the case of a Base Rate Borrowing not later than 1:00 p.m., New York time, one Business Day before the date of the proposed Borrowing. Each such Borrowing Request shall be irrevocable and may be delivered by hand delivery or telecopy to the Administrative Agent of the written Borrowing Request in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and signed by the Borrower.

(b) Each such written Borrowing Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.2:

(i) the aggregate amount of such Borrowing;

(ii) the effective date of such Borrowing, which shall be a Business Day;

(iii) whether such Borrowing is to be a Base Rate Borrowing or a LIBOR Borrowing;

(iv) in the case of a LIBOR Borrowing, the initial Interest Period to be applicable thereto, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”;

(v) the location and number of the Borrower’s account to which funds are to be disbursed, which shall comply with the requirements of Section 2.5;

(vi) on each Term Loan Increase Date, a certification that the Loans being incurred on such date, after giving effect to such Borrowing Request, are not incurred in violation of the Senior Subordinated Note Indenture, the Media Holdings Discount Notes Indenture, or Section 7.1(a) hereof, including detailed calculations evidencing the same.

(c) If no election as to the Type of Borrowing is specified, then the requested Borrowing shall be a Base Rate Borrowing. If no Interest Period is specified with respect to any requested LIBOR Borrowing, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. Promptly following receipt of a Borrowing Request in accordance with this Section 2.3, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of the amount of such Lender’s Loan to be made as part of the requested Borrowing.

2.4 [Reserved].

2.5 Funding of Borrowings.

(a) Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds by 12:00 noon, New York time to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to the Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to an account of the Borrower designated by the Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request.

(b) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section 2.5 and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender (and if the applicable Lender fails to pay immediately upon demand, the Borrower) agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Effective Rate. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing. Nothing in this Section 2.5 shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Commitments to the extent required by this Agreement or to prejudice any rights that the Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder.

2.6 Interest Elections.

(a) Each Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a LIBOR Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request. Thereafter, the Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing to a different Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a LIBOR Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section 2.6. The Borrower may elect different options for continuations and conversions with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing.

(b) To make an election pursuant to this Section 2.6, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election by telephone by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.3(a) if the Borrower were requesting a Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Each such telephonic Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or telecopy to the Administrative Agent of a written Interest Election Request signed by the Borrower.

(c) Each telephonic and written Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.2:

(i) the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options for continuations or conversions are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) below shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing);

(ii) the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day;

(iii) whether the resulting Borrowing is to be a Base Rate Borrowing or a LIBOR Borrowing; and

(iv) if the resulting Borrowing is a LIBOR Borrowing, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”.

If any such Interest Election Request requests a LIBOR Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration.

(d) Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Administrative Agent shall advise each affected Lender of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing.

(e) If the Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a LIBOR Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be converted to a Base Rate Borrowing. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders, so notifies the Borrower, then, so long as an Event of Default is continuing (i) no outstanding Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a LIBOR Borrowing and (ii) unless repaid, each LIBOR Borrowing shall be converted to a Base Rate Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto.

(f) The Borrower shall not be obligated to deliver a Borrowing Request in connection with any election to convert any Borrowing to a different Type or to continue any Borrowing or, in the case of a LIBOR Borrowing, any election of an Interest Period therefor pursuant this Section 2.6.

2.7 Termination of Commitments.

(a) Unless previously terminated, the Term Loan Commitments shall terminate on the close of business on the Closing Date; provided that additional Term Loan Commitments may be available on any Term Loan Increase Date in accordance with Section 2.1(b).

2.8 [Reserved].

2.9 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.

(a) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.15, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder, or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or Affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.15 or 2.17, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

(b) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.15, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17, or if any Lender defaults in its obligation to fund Loans hereunder, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 11.4), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment in its sole discretion); provided that (i) the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, which consents shall not unreasonably be withheld or delayed, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts) and (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.15 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.17, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

(c) If a Lender refuses to consent to an amendment, modification or waiver of this Agreement that, pursuant to Section 11.2, requires consent of 100% of the Lenders (any such Lender, a “Subject Lender”), so long as (i) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Borrower has obtained a written commitment from another Lender or an Eligible Assignee to purchase at par (plus accrued interest, fees and other amounts payable to the Subject Lender hereunder) the Subject Lender’s Loans and assume the Subject Lender’s Commitments and all other obligations of the Subject Lender hereunder, (ii) such Lender is not an issuing lender with respect to any letters of credit outstanding under the Revolving Credit Agreement (unless all such letters of credit are terminated or arrangements satisfactory to such issuing lender (such as a “back-to-back” letter of credit) are made), (iii)

the Required Lenders have so consented and (iv) if applicable, the Subject Lender is unwilling to withdraw its refusal to consent within 2 Business Days after receipt by the Subject Lender and Administrative Agent of a written request to do so from the Borrower, the Borrower may require the Subject Lender to assign all of its Loans and Commitments to such other Lender, Lenders, Eligible Assignee or Eligible Assignees pursuant to the provisions of Section 11.4, provided that, prior to or concurrently with such replacement, (1) the Borrower has paid to the Subject Lender all amounts required to be paid to such Lender under this Agreement through the effective date of the assignment, (2) the processing fee required to be paid by Section 11.4(b)(iii) shall have been paid by the Borrower or the Assignee to Administrative Agent, (3) all of the requirements for such assignment contained in Section 11.4, including the consent of Administrative Agent (if required) and the receipt by Administrative Agent of an executed Assignment and Acceptance Agreement (which each Subject Lender shall be obligated to provide with respect to its interest in the Loans in connection with the Borrower’s exercise of its rights under this subsection) and other supporting documents, have been fulfilled and (4) each assignee shall consent, at the time of such assignment, to each matter in respect of which such Subject Lender refused to consent. Notwithstanding the foregoing no Subject Lender shall be obligated to assign its Loans unless such Subject Lender receives payment of the purchase price and all other amounts described in clause (i) above as a condition to such assignment.

2.10 Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt.

(a) The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay on each Quarterly Date occurring prior to the Term Loan Maturity Date (commencing with June 30, 2006), to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Term Loan Lenders principal payments in the amount equal to the sum of (i) 0.25% of the original principal amount of the Term Loans after the initial Borrowing on the Closing Date plus (ii) 0.25% of the original principal amount of each Term Loan made pursuant to a Term Loan Increase after the Borrowing on the applicable Term Loan Increase Date. To the extent not previously paid, all Term Loans shall be due and payable in full on the Term Loan Maturity Date.

(b) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder.

(c) The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Type thereof and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof.

(d) The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (b) or (c) of this Section 2.10 shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein absent manifest error; provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(e) If so requested by any Lender by written notice to the Borrower, the Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender, a Term Note in the principal amount of such Lender’s Term Loan.

2.11 Prepayment of Loans.

(a) Optional Prepayments. The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing in whole or in part, without premium or penalty (other than LIBOR Loan breakage costs as provided in Section 2.16), subject to prior notice in accordance with paragraph (e) of this Section 2.11 and provided that each such prepayment shall be in an amount that is at least equal to $500,000 or any greater multiple of $100,000 or any lesser amount remaining outstanding. Each prepayment of Loans shall be applied in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section 2.11.

(b) Mandatory Offers to Prepay. The Borrower shall make offers to prepay the Term Loans hereunder as follows:

(i) Sale of Assets.

(A) Notice. The Borrower agrees to deliver to the Administrative Agent, on or prior to the date thirty days after the occurrence of any Disposition or series of Dispositions or any Asset Swap or series of Asset Swaps by any Credit Party which cause the aggregate Net Cash Payments in any fiscal year in respect of Dispositions and Asset Swaps to exceed $5,000,000 (such amount in excess of such $5,000,000 being referred to herein as the “Excess Net Cash Payments”), a statement certified by a Financial Officer of the Borrower, in form and detail reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, (1) setting forth the estimated amount of the Excess Net Cash Payments of such Disposition or Asset Swap that on the date of such Disposition or Asset Swap were received by any Credit Party in cash, (2) indicating the amount, if any, of the Excess Net Cash Payments in respect of such Disposition or Asset Swap which the Borrower intends to reinvest in Reinvestment Assets, and (3) setting forth the calculations of the Asset Sale Prepayment Percentage as of the date of such Disposition or Asset Swap; provided that if the Asset Sale Prepayment Percentage is 0%, then such statement shall not require the information set forth in clauses (1) and (2) above.

(B) Prepayment. On each Asset Sale Prepayment Date, the Borrower will make an offer to prepay the Term Loans in an amount equal to the lesser of (1) the Remaining Excess Net Cash Payments as of such date and (2) the Outstanding Amount as of such date.

(C) Subsequent Notice. Upon any offer to prepay the Term Loans on a date described in clause (d) of the definition of Asset Sale Prepayment Date, the Borrower shall provide a certificate of a Financial Officer setting forth

calculations (in form and detail reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent) of, and certifying as to the Borrower’s intended application of, the amount of any Excess Net Cash Payments received during the quarterly fiscal period ending on the date of the financial statements required to be delivered on or prior to such date.

(D) Prepayment of Revolving Credit Loans. In addition to any obligation to make an offer to prepay Term Loans with any Excess Net Cash Payments relating to any Asset Swap or Disposition in accordance with Section 2.11(b)(i)(B), the Borrower shall be required to prepay the Revolving Credit Loans on any Asset Sale Prepayment Date to the extent required in Section 2.11(b) of the Initial Revolving Credit Agreement (or any equivalent section(s) of any successor Revolving Credit Agreement).

(ii) Proceeds of Casualty Events. To the extent any Credit Party shall receive excess Net Cash Payments in respect of insurance, condemnation awards or other compensation in respect of any Casualty Event affecting any property of any Credit Party in excess of $1,000,000 in any fiscal year, then the Borrower may apply such excess Net Cash Payments, within 360 days after such receipt (or 30 days following such earlier date after such receipt as such Credit Party shall have determined not to repair, replace or restore such property), to the repair or replacement of such property or to Permitted Investments (excluding those described in clause (2) of the definition thereof) or to Restricted Investments otherwise permitted hereunder, reinvestment in similar assets to those subject to the Casualty Event or in other assets used in a Permitted Line of Business or Capital Expenditures permitted hereunder. Upon the expiration of such 360-day period (or upon any such earlier date), the Borrower shall apply such excess Net Cash Payments (to the extent not so reinvested or intended to be reinvested) as follows:

(A) if at the time of such receipt the Revolving Credit Facility is outstanding and any commitment under the Revolving Credit Agreement has not been terminated, at the election of the Borrower, either to:

(1) make an offer to prepay the Term Loans hereunder,

(2) make a voluntary prepayment of the Term Loans hereunder in accordance with Section 2.11(a), and/or

(3) make a prepayment of the Revolving Credit Loans (and provide cover for LC Exposure) under the Revolving Credit Agreement, which shall be accompanied by a permanent reduction of the commitments under the Revolving Credit Agreement, as specified in Section 2.4(i) and 2.11(b)(i) of the Initial Revolving Credit Agreement (or the equivalent section(s) of any successor Revolving Credit Agreement), or

(B) after the Revolving Credit Facility has been paid in full and all commitments hereunder have been terminated, at the election of the Borrower, either to (1) make an offer to prepay the Term Loans hereunder and/or (2) make a voluntary prepayment of the Term Loans in accordance with Section 2.11(a);

(iii) Proceeds Otherwise Required to Pay Subordinated Debt. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event that any of the Credit Parties shall have consummated (A) any “Asset Sale” (as defined in the Senior Subordinated Note Indenture), (B) any “Asset Sale” (as defined in the Media Holdings Discount Notes Indenture), (C) prior to the Alta Repayment Date, any “Sale of the Company” (as defined in the Holdings Securities Purchase Documents), (D) any Disposition or similar term as defined in the documents governing any Holding Company Debt or (E) any Disposition or similar term defined in the documents governing any other Subordinated Indebtedness that, in any such case, result in Net Cash Payments that would not be required to be applied in the manner specified under Section 2.11(b)(i) or under Section 2.11(b)(i) of the Initial Revolving Credit Agreement (or any analogous provision in any successor Revolving Credit Agreement), the Credit Parties, to the extent that the Senior Subordinated Note Indenture, the Media Holdings Discount Notes Indenture, prior to the Alta Repayment Date, the Holdings Securities Purchase Documents or the documents governing such other Holding Company Debt or Subordinated Indebtedness would require any prepayment or redemption of the Senior Subordinated Notes or any Holding Company Debt or warrants issued by any Holding Company pursuant to the Media Holdings Discount Notes Indenture, the Holdings Securities Purchase Documents or the documents governing such other Holding Company Debt or other Subordinated Indebtedness, respectively, shall be required, no later than one Business Day prior to the date on which the Borrower would otherwise be required to prepay or redeem any such Indebtedness or warrants,

(A) if at the time of such consummation the Revolving Credit Facility is outstanding and any commitment thereunder has not been terminated, the Borrower shall apply the amount of any such prepayment or redemption that would be so required, at its election, to:

(1) make an offer to prepay the Term Loans hereunder,

(2) make a voluntary prepayment of the Term Loans hereunder in accordance with Section 2.11(a), and/or

(3) make a prepayment of the Revolving Credit Loans (and provide cover for LC Exposure) under the Revolving Credit Agreement, which shall be

accompanied by a permanent reduction of the commitments under the Revolving Credit Agreement, as specified in Section 2.4(i) and 2.11(b)(i) of the Initial Revolving Credit Agreement (or the equivalent section(s) of any successor Revolving Credit Agreement), or

(B) after the Revolving Credit Facility has been paid in full and all commitments hereunder have been terminated, the Borrower shall apply the amount of any such prepayment or redemption that would be so required either, at its option, to (1) make an offer to prepay the Term Loans hereunder and/or (2) make a voluntary prepayment of the Term Loans in accordance with Section 2.11(a);

such voluntary prepayment or accepted offer to prepay to be applied in each case in the manner and to the extent specified in paragraph (c) of this Section 2.11 or such offer to prepay to be effected in each case in the manner and to the extent specified in paragraph (d) of this Section 2.11.

(C) The obligation of the Borrower to apply any Net Cash Payments on any date on which the Borrower is required to apply such Net Cash Payments as required above to (1) make voluntary prepayments of the Term Loans, make prepayments of the Revolving Credit Loans and make offers to prepay the Term Loans under clause (A) above, or (2) to make voluntary prepayments or offers to prepay the Term Loans under clause (B) above, shall be limited to the Outstanding Amount as of such date.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Loan Documents, in the event any Term Loan Lender declines any offer to prepay the Term Loans, the portion of the Net Cash Payments that would otherwise have been applied to prepay the portion of the Term Loans held by such declining Term Loan Lender may be used by the Credit Parties (and, in the case of the following clause (y), Media Holdings) (x) subject to the subordination provisions of the Senior Subordinated Note Indenture, to prepay the Senior Subordinated Notes, (y) subject to the subordination provisions of the Media Holdings Discount Notes Indenture, as a dividend or loan to Media Holdings, to be applied promptly by Media Holdings to the prepayment of the Media Holdings Discount Notes, or (z) for any legal purposes in accordance with this Agreement (without, in the case of this clause (z), giving effect to this sentence).

(c) Application. Any prepayments (including accepted offers to prepay) pursuant to subsection (a) or (b) of this Section to be applied to prepay the Term Loans, ratably among the Lenders (or the Lenders accepting such offer, in the case of an accepted offer of prepayment) in proportion to the outstanding principal amount of their respective Term Loans, and any prepayment or offer to prepay under subsection (a) or (b) of this Section shall be applied to the Term Loans of the Lenders pro rata against the remaining amortization installments required under Section 2.10(a).

(d) Prepayment Offers.

(i) To the extent that the Borrower has elected to or is required to make an offer to prepay the Term Loans as provided above (each a “Prepayment Offer”), the Borrower will make an offer to the Term Loan Lenders to purchase the maximum

principal amount of Term Loans that may be purchased with the amount required to be offered to prepay the Term Loans under subsection (b) above (the “Prepayment Offer Proceeds”). The offer price for each Prepayment Offer will be equal to 100% of principal amount of the Term Loans offered to be prepaid plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase, and will be payable in cash. If any Prepayment Offer Proceeds remain after consummation of a Prepayment Offer, the Borrower may use those Prepayment Offer Proceeds for any purpose not otherwise prohibited by this Agreement including a voluntary prepayment of the Term Loans or Subordinated Indebtedness. If the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans elected by the Term Loan Lenders to be purchased in such Prepayment Offer exceeds the amount of Prepayment Offer Proceeds, the Administrative Agent shall select the Term Loans to be purchased on a pro rata basis. Upon completion of each Prepayment Offer, the amount of Prepayment Offer Proceeds shall be reset at zero.

(ii) Each Prepayment Offer will follow the procedures specified below:

(A) The Prepayment Offer shall be made to all Term Loan Lenders. The Prepayment Offer will remain open for a period of at least 20 Business Days following its commencement and not more than 30 Business Days, except to the extent that a longer period is required by applicable law (the “Offer Period”). No later than five Business Days after the termination of the Offer Period (the “Purchase Date”), the Borrower will apply all Prepayment Offer Proceeds (the “Offer Amount”) to the purchase of Term Loans (on a pro rata basis) or, if less than the Offer Amount has been elected by the Term Loan Lenders to be purchased, all Term Loan Lenders electing to have Term Loans repurchased in response to the Prepayment Offer. Payment for any Term Loans so purchased will be made in the same manner as other payments hereunder are made.

(B) Upon the commencement of a Prepayment Offer, the Borrower will send, by first class mail, a notice to the Administrative Agent and each Term Loan Lender. The notice will contain all instructions and materials necessary to enable such Term Loan Lenders to elect to have their Term Loans purchased pursuant to the Prepayment Offer. The notice, which will govern the terms of the Prepayment Offer, will state:

(1) that the Prepayment Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 2.11(b) and (d) and the length of time the Prepayment Offer will remain open;

(2) the Offer Amount, the purchase price and the Purchase Date;

(3) that any Term Loan not elected by a Term Loan Lender to be purchased or not accepted for payment will continue to accrue interest;

(4) that, unless the Borrower defaults in making such payment, any Term Loan accepted for payment pursuant to the Prepayment Offer will cease to accrue interest after the Purchase Date;

(5) that Term Loan Lenders electing to have a Term Loan purchased pursuant to an Prepayment Offer may elect to have Term Loans purchased in integral multiples of $1,000 only;

(6) that Term Loan Lenders electing to have Term Loans purchased pursuant to any Prepayment Offer shall deliver to the Borrower the form entitled “Option of Term Loan Lender to Elect Purchase” delivered with such notice, at the address specified in the notice at least three days before the Purchase Date together with its Term Note, if any;

(7) that Term Loan Lenders will be entitled to withdraw their election if the Borrower receives, not later than the expiration of the Offer Period, a telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Term Loan Lender, the principal amount of the Term Loan the Term Loan Lender delivered for purchase and a statement that such Term Loan Lender is withdrawing its election to have such Term Loan purchased;

(8) that, if the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans electing repurchase exceeds the Offer Amount, the Borrower will select the Term Loans on a pro rata basis based on the principal amount of Term Loans electing repurchase (with such adjustments as may be deemed appropriate by the Borrower so that only Term Loans in denominations of $1,000, or integral multiples thereof, will be purchased); and

(9) that Term Loan Lenders whose Term Loans were purchased only in part will be issued new Term Notes (if required by such Term Loan Lenders) equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Term Loans of such Term Loan Lenders.

On or before the Purchase Date, the Borrower will, to the extent lawful, accept for payment, on a pro rata basis to the extent necessary, the Offer Amount of Term Loans, or if less than the Offer Amount has been elected to by purchased by Term Loan Lenders, all Term Loans requesting repayment, and will deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of a Financial Officer stating that such Term Loans or portions thereof were accepted for payment by the Borrower in accordance with the terms of this Section 2.11(d). The Borrower will promptly (but in any case not later than five days after the Purchase Date) pay to each Term Loan Lender electing repurchase an amount equal to the purchase price of the Term Loans elected to be purchased by such Term Loan Lender and accepted by the Borrower for purchase, and the Borrower will promptly issue a new Term Note, if requested by such Term Loan Lender, and mail or deliver such new Term Note (if so requested) to such Term Loan Lender, in a principal amount equal to any unpurchased portion of the Term Loans of such Term Loan Lender. Any Term Note in respect of any Term Loan not so accepted shall be promptly mailed or delivered by the Borrower to the Term Loan Lender thereof. The Borrower will notify the Administrative Agent and the Term Loan Lenders of the results of the Prepayment Offer on the Purchase Date.

(e) Notification of Prepayments. The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of any prepayment under Sections 2.11(a) or 2.11(b) not later than 1:00 p.m., New York time, three Business Days before the date of prepayment, except that prepayments of Base Rate Loans pursuant to Section 2.11(a) may be made upon one Business Day’s notice. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid. Promptly following receipt of any such notice relating to a Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Borrowing under paragraph (a) of this Section 2.11 shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of an advance of a Borrowing of the same Type as provided in Section 2.2.

(f) Prepayments Accompanied by Interest. Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.13.

(g) Revolving Credit Agreement. At any time prior to the termination of the commitments under the Initial Revolving Credit Agreement and repayment of all loans thereunder, the terms of Section 2.11(b) of the Initial Revolving Credit Agreement shall control in the event of a conflict with Section 2.11(b) hereunder.

2.12 Fees.

(a) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Agents, for their own accounts, fees payable in the amounts and at the times separately agreed in writing between the Borrower and each Agent.

(b) All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds. Fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances, absent manifest error in the determination thereof.

2.13 Interest.

(a) The Loans comprising each Base Rate Borrowing shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Adjusted Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin.

(b) The Loans comprising each LIBOR Borrowing shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Adjusted LIBO Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Margin.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, all amounts which are not paid when due shall bear interest until paid in full at the Post-Default Rate.

(d) Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan; provided that (i) interest accrued at the Post-Default Rate shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any LIBOR Loan, accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment, (iii) in the event of any conversion of any LIBOR Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion and (iv) all accrued interest on all Loans shall be payable on the Term Loan Maturity Date.

(e) All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that interest computed by reference to the Adjusted Base Rate at times when the Adjusted Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). The applicable Adjusted Base Rate, Adjusted LIBO Rate or LIBO Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the aggregate interest, fees and other amounts required to be paid by the Borrower to the Lenders or any Lender hereunder are hereby expressly limited so that in no contingency or event whatsoever whether by reason of acceleration of maturity of the Indebtedness evidenced hereby or otherwise, shall the amount paid or agreed to be paid to the Lenders or any Lender for the use or the forbearance of the Indebtedness evidenced hereby exceed the maximum permissible under applicable law. If under or from any circumstances whatsoever, fulfillment of any provision hereof or of any of the other Loan Documents at the time of performance of such provision shall be due, shall involve transcending the limit of such validity prescribed by applicable law then the obligation to be fulfilled shall automatically be reduced to the limits of such validity and if under or from circumstances whatsoever the Lenders or any Lender should ever receive as interest any amount which would exceed the highest lawful rate, the amount of such interest that is excessive shall be applied to the reduction of the principal balance of the Indebtedness evidenced hereby and not to the payment of interest. This provision shall control every other provision of this Agreement and all provisions of every other Loan Document.

2.14 Alternate Rate of Interest. If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a LIBOR Borrowing:

(a) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBO Rate or the LIBO Rate, as applicable, for such Interest Period; or

(b) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that the Adjusted LIBO Rate or the LIBO Rate, as applicable, for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining their Loans included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period;

then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and the affected Lenders by telephone or telecopy as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and such Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any such Borrowing to, or continuation of any such Borrowing as, a LIBOR Borrowing shall be ineffective and (ii) if any Borrowing Request requests a LIBOR Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be made as a Base Rate Borrowing.

2.15 Increased Costs.

(a) If any Change in Law shall:

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted LIBO Rate); or

(ii) impose on any Lender or the London interbank market any other condition affecting this Agreement or LIBOR Loans made by such Lender or participation therein;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any LIBOR Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then the Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b) If any Lender reasonably determines that any Change in Law regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by such Lender to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender, or such Lender’s holding company, for any such reduction suffered.

(c) A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 2.15 shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive so long as it reflects a reasonable basis for the calculation of the amounts set forth therein and does not contain any manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

(d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.15 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section 2.15 for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than six months prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is (i) retroactive and (ii) occurred within such six-month period, then the six-month period referred to above may be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof, but in no event any period prior to the Closing Date.

2.16 Break Funding Payments.

(a) In the event of (i) the payment of any principal of any LIBOR Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (ii) the conversion of any LIBOR Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (iii) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any LIBOR Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice is permitted to be revocable and is revoked in accordance herewith) or (iv) the assignment of any LIBOR Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.9, then, in any such event, the Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event; provided that if the occurrence of any event described in clause (iii) above shall occur solely as a result of any Lender’s failure to make available such Lender’s share of any LIBOR Borrowing, such Lender shall not be entitled to compensation under this Section 2.16(a) with respect to such event. Nothing in this Section 2.16 shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Commitments to the extent required by this Agreement or to prejudice any rights that the Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder.

(b) In the case of a LIBOR Loan, the loss to any Lender attributable to any such event shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be equal to the excess, if any, of

(i) the amount of interest that such Lender would pay for a deposit equal to the principal amount of such Loan for the period from the date of such payment, conversion, failure or assignment to the last day of the then current Interest Period for such Loan (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, the duration of the Interest Period that would have resulted from such borrowing, conversion or continuation) if the interest rate payable on such deposit were equal to the Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Interest Period (or if such Lender does not accept deposits, then the Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Interest Period),

over

(ii) the amount of interest that such Lender would earn on such principal amount for such period if such Lender were to invest such principal amount for such period at the interest rate that would be bid by such Lender (or an Affiliate of such Lender) for U.S. dollar deposits from other banks in the LIBOR market at the commencement of such period.

(c) A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 2.16 shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

2.17 Taxes.

(a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that if the Borrower shall be required to deduct any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.17) the Administrative Agent or any Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower shall make such deductions and (iii) the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(b) In addition, the Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(c) The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender within 10 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.17) paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender (and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto during the period prior to the Borrower making the payment demanded under this paragraph (c)), whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender, or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. If the Administrative Agent or a Lender shall become aware that it is entitled to claim a refund from a Governmental Authority in respect of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower, or with respect to which the Borrower has paid increased amounts pursuant to this Section 2.17, such Lender shall notify the Borrower of the availability of such refund claim and shall exercise reasonable efforts (at no cost to such Lender) to make the appropriate claim to such Governmental Authority for such a refund. In the event any such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent or a Lender are refunded to such Administrative Agent or Lender, the Lender receiving such refund shall forthwith pay over such amount to the Administrative Agent and each such refunded amount shall be (i) applied to prepay interest payable on the Term Loans, or to pay any other obligations of the Credit Parties then due hereunder, or (ii) in the event all obligations hereunder and under all of the Loan Documents have been indefeasibly paid in full, refunded to the Borrower.

(d) As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of any receipt issued by such Governmental Authority to the Borrower evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(e) Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under the law of a jurisdiction in which the Borrower is located, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments under this Agreement shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate.

2.18 Payments Generally: Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-Offs.

(a) The Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest or fees, or under Sections 2.15, 2.16 or 2.17, or otherwise) prior to 1:00 p.m., New York time, on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without set-off or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at such of its offices in New York as shall be notified to the relevant parties from time to time, except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 11.3 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof, and the Borrower shall have no liability in the event timely or correct distribution of such payments is not so made. If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. All payments hereunder shall be made in U.S. dollars.

(b) If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all Obligations then due and payable under the Loan Documents, (i) under any circumstances other than after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Acceleration, such funds shall be applied (A) first, to pay interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, (B) second, to pay principal then due hereunder, and Hedging Obligations (which Hedging Obligations distributed under this clause (B) shall not exceed $20,000,000 in the aggregate) entered into by a Lender or an Affiliate of any Lender, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal and Hedging Obligations then due to such parties and (C) third, to other Hedging Obligations entered into by a Lender or an Affiliate of any Lender, ratably among the parties thereto in accordance with the amounts of Hedging Obligations due to such parties, and (D) fourth, to other Obligations due to the Lenders and their Affiliates under the Loan Documents, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts due to such parties or (ii) after the occurrence and during the continuation of any Acceleration, in accordance with the Intercreditor Agreement.

(c) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans (other than pursuant to Sections 2.15 or 2.17), resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a

greater proportion of the aggregate principal amount of its Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion of such amounts received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans of the other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of such payments shall be shared by all the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans to any assignee or participant, other than to any Credit Party or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply). The Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.

(d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders entitled thereto (the “Applicable Recipient”) hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Applicable Recipient the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each Applicable Recipient severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Applicable Recipient with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Effective Rate.

(e) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.5(b) or 2.18(d), then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Section until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid.

(f) Except to the extent otherwise provided herein: (i) each Borrowing of Term Loans from the Lenders under Section 2.1 shall be made from the Lenders, and each termination of the amount of the Commitments shall be applied to the Commitments of the Lenders, pro rata according to the amounts of their respective Commitments; (ii) LIBOR Loans having the same Interest Period shall be allocated pro rata among the Lenders according to the amounts of their Commitments (in the case of the making of Loans) or their Loans (in the case of conversions and continuations of Loans); (iii) each payment or prepayment by the Borrower of principal of Loans shall be made for the account of the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the respective unpaid principal amounts of the Loans held by such Lenders, except as otherwise set forth in Section 2.11; and (iv) each payment by the Borrower of interest on Loans shall be made for the account of the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the amounts of interest on such Loans then due and payable to the Lenders, except as otherwise set forth in Section 2.11.

ARTICLE 3

Guarantee by Guarantors

3.1 The Guarantee. Each Guarantor hereby jointly and severally guarantees to each Lender and the Administrative Agent and their respective successors and assigns the prompt payment and performance in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of the principal of and interest on the Loans made by the Lenders to the Borrower, and all other amounts from time to time owing to the Lenders or the Administrative Agent by the Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document, and all other obligations of the Borrower to any Lender or Related Party hereunder or to any Lender or the affiliate of any Lender under any Hedging Agreement, in each case strictly in accordance with the terms thereof (such obligations being herein collectively called the “Guaranteed Obligations”). Each Guarantor hereby further agrees that if the Borrower shall fail to pay in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) any of the Guaranteed Obligations, each Guarantor will promptly pay the same, without any demand or notice whatsoever, and that in the case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, the same will be promptly paid in full when due (whether at extended maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) in accordance with the terms of such extension or renewal.

3.2 Obligations Unconditional. The obligations of each Guarantor under Section 3.1 are absolute and unconditional irrespective of the value, genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein, or any substitution, release or exchange of any other guarantee of or security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations, and, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, irrespective of any other circumstance whatsoever that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor, it being the intent of this Section 3.2 that the obligations of the Guarantors hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is agreed that the occurrence of any one or more of the following shall not alter or impair the liability of the Guarantors hereunder which shall remain absolute and unconditional as described above:

(i) at any time or from time to time, without notice to such Guarantors, the time for any performance of or compliance with any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be extended, or such performance or compliance shall be waived;

(ii) any of the acts mentioned in any of the provisions hereof or of the other Loan Documents or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein shall be done or omitted;

(iii) the maturity of any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be accelerated, or any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be modified, supplemented or amended in any respect, or any right hereunder or under the other Loan Documents or

any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein shall be waived or any other guarantee of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any security therefor shall be released or exchanged in whole or in part or otherwise dealt with; or

(iv) any lien or security interest granted to, or in favor of, the Administrative Agent or any Lender or Lenders as security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall fail to be perfected or any Collateral is released or otherwise compromised or liquidated for less than fair value.

The Guarantors hereby expressly waive diligence, presentment, demand of payment, notice of acceleration, notice of intent to accelerate, protest and all notices whatsoever (except as expressly required hereby) and any requirement that the Administrative Agent or any Lender exhaust any right, power or remedy or proceed against the Borrower hereunder or under the other Loan Documents or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein, or against any other Person under any other guarantee of, or security for, any of the Guaranteed Obligations.

3.3 Reinstatement. The obligations of each Guarantor under this Article 3 shall be automatically reinstated if and to the extent that for any reason any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise restored by any holder of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, whether as a result of any proceedings in bankruptcy or reorganization or otherwise, and each of the Guarantors agrees that it will indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender on demand for all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) incurred by the Administrative Agent, any Lender in connection with such rescission or restoration, including any such costs and expenses incurred in defending against any claim alleging that such payment constituted a preference, fraudulent transfer or similar payment under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law.

3.4 Subrogation. Until such time as the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been indefeasibly paid in full, each Guarantor hereby waives all rights of subrogation or contribution, whether arising by contract or operation of law (including any such right arising under the Federal Bankruptcy Code of 1978, as amended) or otherwise by reason of any payment by it pursuant to the provisions of this Article 3.

3.5 Remedies. Each Guarantor agrees that, as between such Guarantor and the Lenders, the obligations of the Borrower hereunder may be declared to be forthwith due and payable as provided in Section 8.1 (and shall be deemed to have become automatically due and payable in the circumstances provided in Section 8.1) for purposes of Section 3.1 notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such declaration (or such obligations from becoming automatically due and payable) as against the Borrower and that, in the event of such declaration (or such obligations being deemed to have become automatically due and payable), such obligations (whether or not due and payable by the Borrower) shall forthwith become due and payable by such Guarantor for purposes of Section 3.1.

3.6 Continuing Guarantee. The guarantee in this Article 3 is a continuing irrevocable guarantee of payment and performance, and shall apply to all Guaranteed Obligations prior to the indefeasible payment in full of Borrower’s obligations hereunder.

3.7 Rights of Contribution. The Guarantors hereby agree, as between themselves, that if any Guarantor shall become an Excess Funding Guarantor (as defined below) by reason of the payment by such Guarantor of any Guaranteed Obligations, each other Guarantor shall, on demand of such Excess Funding Guarantor (but subject to the next sentence), pay to such Excess Funding Guarantor an amount equal to such Guarantor’s Pro Rata Share (as defined below and determined, for this purpose, without reference to the properties, debts and liabilities of such Excess Funding Guarantor) of the Excess Payment (as defined below) in respect of such Guaranteed Obligations. The payment obligation of a Guarantor to any Excess Funding Guarantor under this Section 3.7 shall be subordinate and subject in right of payment to the prior payment in full of the obligations of such Guarantor under the other provisions of this Article 3 and such Excess Funding Guarantor shall not exercise any right or remedy with respect to such excess until payment and satisfaction in full of all of such obligations.

For purposes of this Section 3.7, (i) “Excess Funding Guarantor” means, in respect of any Guaranteed Obligations, a Guarantor that has paid an amount in excess of its Pro Rata Share of such Guaranteed Obligations, (ii) “Excess Payment” means, in respect of any Guaranteed Obligations, the amount paid by an Excess Funding Guarantor in excess of its Pro Rata Share of such Guaranteed Obligations and (iii) “Pro Rata Share” means, for any Guarantor, the ratio (expressed as a percentage) of (x) the amount by which the aggregate present fair saleable value of all properties of such Guarantor (excluding any shares of stock of, or ownership interest in, any other Guarantor) exceeds the amount of all the debts and liabilities of such Guarantor (including contingent, subordinated, unmatured and unliquidated liabilities, but excluding the obligations of such Guarantor hereunder and any obligations of any other Guarantor that have been Guaranteed by such Guarantor) to (y) the amount by which the aggregate fair saleable value of all properties of all of the Credit Parties exceeds the amount of all the debts and liabilities (including contingent, subordinated, unmatured and unliquidated liabilities, but excluding the obligations of the Borrower and the Guarantors hereunder and under the other Loan Documents) of all of the Credit Parties, determined (A) with respect to any Guarantor that is a party hereto at the Effective Time, as of the Effective Time, and (B) with respect to any other Guarantor, as of the date such Guarantor becomes a Guarantor hereunder.

3.8 General Limitation on Guarantee Obligations. In any action or proceeding involving any state or non-U.S. corporate law, or any state or Federal or non-U.S. bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other law affecting the rights of creditors generally, if the obligations of any Guarantor under Section 3.1 would otherwise, taking into account the provisions of Section 3.7, be held or determined to be void, invalid or unenforceable, or subordinated to the claims of any other creditors, on account of the amount of its liability under Section 3.1, then, notwithstanding any other provision hereof to the contrary, the amount of such liability shall, without any further action by such Guarantor, any Lender, Agent or other Person, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount that is valid and enforceable and not subordinated to the claims of other creditors as determined in such action or proceeding.

3.9 Waivers. As used in this paragraph, any reference to “the principal” includes the Borrower, and any reference to “the creditor” includes the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders. In accordance with Section 2856 of the California Civil Code (a) each Guarantor waives any and all rights and defenses available to such Guarantor by reason of Sections 2787 to 2855, inclusive, 2899 and 3433 of the California Civil Code, including without limitation any and all rights or defenses any Guarantor may have by reason of protection afforded to the principal with respect to any of the Guaranteed Obligations, or to any other guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations with respect to any of such guarantor’s obligations under its guaranty, in either case pursuant to the antideficiency or other laws of the State of California limiting or discharging the principal’s indebtedness or such guarantor’s obligations, including without limitation Section 580a, 580b, 580d, or 726 of the California Code of Civil Procedure; and (b) each Guarantor waives all rights and defenses arising out of an election of remedies by the creditor, even though that election of remedies, such as a nonjudicial foreclosure with respect to security for a Guaranteed Obligation, has destroyed Guarantor’s rights of subrogation and reimbursement against the principal by the operation of Section 580d of the Code of Civil Procedure or otherwise; and even though that election of remedies by the creditor, such as nonjudicial foreclosure with respect to security for an obligation of any other guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, has destroyed Guarantor’s rights of contribution against such other guarantor. No other provision of this Guaranty shall be construed as limiting the generality of any of the covenants and waivers set forth in this paragraph. As provided below, this Agreement shall be governed by, and shall be construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York. The foregoing waivers of rights under California law are included out of an abundance of caution, and do not affect or limit in any way the parties’ choice of New York law to govern this Agreement and the Guaranteed Obligations.

(xii) Indebtedness of Empire Burbank under the Empire Burbank Loan Documents;

(xiii) the incurrence by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries of Indebtedness arising from the honoring by a bank or other financial institution of a check, draft or similar instrument inadvertently drawn against insufficient funds in the ordinary course of business and such Indebtedness is extinguished within five business days after notice thereof;

(xiv) Indebtedness in respect of the Relocation Profits to the extent required to be paid to the Shop At Home Sellers pursuant to the Shop At Home Acquisition Documents; and

(xv) the incurrence by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries of additional Indebtedness in an aggregate principal amount (or accreted value, as applicable) at any time outstanding, including all Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness incurred to refund, refinance or replace any Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this clause (xv), not to exceed $10.0 million.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries shall be permitted to incur any Xxxxxxxx Subordinated Debt hereunder unless the Obligations of the Borrower or such Subsidiary under such Xxxxxxxx Subordinated Debt is subordinated to the Obligations of the Borrower or such Subsidiary hereunder pursuant to a Xxxxxxxx Subordination Agreement.

For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 7.1, in the event that an item of proposed Indebtedness meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Permitted Debt described in clauses (i) through (xv) above, or is entitled to be incurred pursuant to the first paragraph of this Section 7.1, the Borrower will be permitted to classify such item of Indebtedness on the date of its incurrence, or later reclassify all or a portion of such item of Indebtedness, in any manner that complies with this Section 7.1. Indebtedness under the Revolving Credit Facility, including Guarantees of such Indebtedness, on the Closing Date, will be deemed to have been incurred on such date in reliance on the exception provided by clause (i) of the definition of Permitted Debt.

Accrual of interest, the accretion of accreted value and the payment of interest in the form of additional Indebtedness will not be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness for purposes of this Section 7.1.

7.2 Liens. Neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries will directly or indirectly, create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien of any kind securing Indebtedness or trade payables on any asset now owned or hereafter acquired, except Permitted Liens.

7.3 Merger, Consolidation or Sale of Assets.

(a) The Borrower will not, directly or indirectly: (1) consolidate or merge with or into another Person (whether or not the Borrower is the surviving corporation); or (2) sell, assign, transfer, convey or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of the properties or assets of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole, in one or more related transactions, to another Person unless:

(i) either: (a) the Borrower is the surviving corporation; or (b) the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than the Borrower) or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition has been made is a corporation organized or existing under the laws of the United States, any state of the United States or the District of Columbia;

(ii) the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than the Borrower) or the Person to which such sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition shall have been made assumes all the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement pursuant to agreements reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent;

(iii) immediately after such transaction, no Default exists; and

(iv) the Borrower or the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than the Borrower), or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition has been made (a) would, on the date of such transaction after giving pro forma effect thereto and any related financing transactions as if the same had occurred at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period, be permitted to incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Leverage Ratio test set forth in Section 7.1(a) or (b) would have a lower Leverage Ratio immediately after the transaction, after giving pro forma effect to the transaction as if the transaction had occurred at the beginning of the applicable four quarter period, than the Borrower’s Leverage Ratio immediately prior to the transaction.

(b) In addition, the Borrower may not, directly or indirectly, lease all or substantially all of its properties or assets, in one or more related transactions, to any other Person. This Section 7.3 will not prohibit (i) any sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of assets between or among the Borrower and any of its Wholly Owned Subsidiaries, (ii) any Subsidiary of the Borrower from consolidating with, merging into or transferring all or part of its assets to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, (iii) the Borrower from merging with an Affiliate incorporated solely for the purpose of

reincorporating the Borrower in another jurisdiction to realize tax or other benefits or (iv) any lease or sublease of real property that is not material to the business of the Credit Parties, taken as a whole, to the extent such lease or sublease would not materially interfere with the operation of the businesses of the Credit Parties. In addition, this Agreement will not prohibit Media Holdings, the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries from converting from a corporation to a limited liability company for the sole purpose of realizing tax or other benefits, provided that prior to such conversion, the Borrower shall provide such documents, agreements, certificates and opinions as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request, to cause such successor entity to (and to evidence that such successor entity shall) continue to be subject to the Loan Documents to the same extent as the predecessor entity.

(c) Upon any consolidation or merger, or any sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Borrower in a transaction that is subject to, and that complies with this Section 7.3, the successor corporation formed by such consolidation or into or with which the Borrower is merged or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition is made shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the date of such consolidation, merger, sale, lease, conveyance or other disposition, the provisions of this Agreement referring to the “Borrower” shall refer instead to the successor corporation and not to the Borrower), and may exercise every right and power of the Borrower under this Agreement with the same effect as if such successor Person had been named as the Borrower herein; provided, however, that the predecessor Borrower shall not be relieved from the obligation to pay the principal of and interest on the Term Notes and the other obligations hereunder except in the case of a sale of all of the Borrower’s assets in a transaction that is subject to, and that complies with the provisions of this Section 7.3.

7.4 Restricted Payments.

(a) Neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries will, directly or indirectly:

(i) declare or pay any dividend or make any other payment or distribution on account of the Borrower’s or any of its Subsidiary’s Equity Interests (including, without limitation, any payment in connection with any merger or consolidation involving the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries) or to the direct or indirect holders of the Borrower’s or any of its Subsidiary’s Equity Interests in their capacity as such (other than dividends or distributions payable in Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) of the Borrower and other than dividends or distributions payable to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries);

(vi) the declaration and payment of any dividends or distributions or the making of any loans by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries to Holdings to be used for, and in an amount equal to, the amount of any dividends or distributions paid or loans made by Holdings to, or the repurchase of any Equity Interests of Holdings from, Xxxx Xxxxxxxx, Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx, or their Related Parties, provided that the aggregate amount of all such dividends, distributions and loans to Holdings do not exceed $1.0 million in any calendar year;

(x) the cancellation or forgiveness of any loan between the Borrower and/or its Affiliates existing on the Closing Date or any loan permitted by subparagraphs (v), (vi) and (viii) above and (xi) below (it being understood that any forgiveness or cancellation of such loans made in connection with any Permitted Holdings Tax Distribution or Permitted Shareholder Tax Distribution shall not reduce the amount of subsequent Permitted Holdings Tax Distributions or Permitted Shareholder Tax Distributions);

(xi) the declaration and payment of any dividends or distributions or the making of any loans to Holdings for payments required to be made pursuant to the terms of the Management Incentive Contracts in an aggregate amount not to exceed $15.0 million; and

The declaration and payment of any dividends or distributions or the making of any loans to Holdings permitted by (x) subparagraph (v) above shall not be permitted pursuant thereto at any time when Holdings is not an S Corporation or substantially similar pass-through entity for federal income tax purposes and (y) subparagraphs (vi) and (xi) above shall not be permitted pursuant thereto at any time following any underwritten primary public offering of common stock of the Borrower or Holdings. This Section 7.4 shall not prohibit any payment permitted to be made by the last paragraph of Section 2.11(b).

The amount of all Restricted Payments (other than cash) will be the fair market value on the date of the Restricted Payment of the assets or securities proposed to be transferred or issued by the Borrower, or such Subsidiary of the Borrower, as the case may be, pursuant to the Restricted Payment. The fair market value of any assets or securities that are required to be valued by this Section 7.4 will be determined by the Board of Directors whose resolution with respect thereto

shall be delivered to the Administrative Agent. The Board of Directors’ determination must be based upon an opinion or appraisal issued by an accounting, appraisal or investment banking firm of national standing if the fair market value exceeds $10.0 million.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if part or all of a Permitted Holdings Tax Distribution or a Permitted Shareholder Tax Distribution is made in the form of a loan (rather than a dividend or other form of distribution), then (i) the terms of such loan shall be determined in the sole discretion of the Borrower, and (ii) the subsequent cancellation or forgiveness of such loan shall not be treated as a Restricted Payment and shall not reduce the amount of subsequent Permitted Holdings Tax Distributions or Permitted Shareholder Tax Distributions.

Notwithstanding anything herein or in any of the other Loan Documents (including the Alta Subordination Agreement and the Investor Subordination Agreement) to the contrary, each Agent and each Lender hereby consents to (i) the Assumption Agreement, Reaffirmation Agreement, the Stockholder Voting Agreement, the Termination Agreement, the Election[s] to Purchase, the Irrevocable Instructions, the Conversion Election[s], the Holdings Merger Agreement, the Holdings Merger, the Qualifying IPO, and the Qualifying IPO Funding Transactions and to the execution, delivery and performance by the Administrative Agent (for itself and on behalf of the Lenders) of the Second Confirmation of Subordination Agreements, the Third Confirmation of Subordination Agreements, the Omnibus Confirmation Agreement and the Second Omnibus Confirmation Agreement, and (ii) the payments permitted under the last paragraph of Section 2.11(b) and nothing herein or therein shall be deemed to prohibit any payments described in clauses (a), (c) or, subject to the subordination provisions of the Senior Subordinated Note Indenture, (e) of the definition of Qualifying IPO Funding Transactions made within fifteen months after the consummation of the Qualifying IPO.

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents to the contrary, with respect to any period during which Holdings is not an S Corporation or a substantially similar pass-through entity for federal income tax purposes, any Credit Party will be permitted to make payments to any other Credit Party or any Holding Company to permit such other Credit Party or such Holding Company to pay any federal, state or local tax liability of any Credit Party or any federal, state or local tax liability of any Holding Company attributable to the Credit Parties (including tax liabilities determined under Section 1552 of the Code and the consolidated return regulations promulgated under the Code); provided that any amounts not used to pay such tax liabilities, and refunds which are received by any Holding Company which are attributable to any Credit Party or otherwise attributable to the amounts so distributed shall be returned promptly by such Holding Company to the Credit Parties. This Section shall not prohibit any payment permitted to be made by the last paragraph of Section 2.11(b) or any loan or dividend to Media Holdings promptly applied in the manner contemplated thereby.

(b) the Borrower delivers to the Administrative Agent:

(i) with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate consideration in excess of $1.0 million, a resolution of the Board of Directors set forth in an officer’s certificate certifying that such Affiliate Transaction complies with this Section 7.5 and that such Affiliate Transaction has been approved by a majority of the members of the Board of Directors, which approval, if the Board of Directors includes disinterested members at such time, shall include the approval of at least one disinterested member; and

(ii) with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate consideration in excess of $5.0 million, an opinion as to the fairness to the Borrower of such Affiliate Transaction from a financial point of view issued by an accounting, appraisal or investment banking firm of national standing; provided, that upon the election or appointment of one or more disinterested members to the Board of Directors, an opinion as to fairness required by this paragraph (b)(ii) will only be required for Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate consideration in excess of $10.0 million.

The following items will not be deemed to be Affiliate Transactions and, therefore, will not be subject to the provisions of the prior paragraph:

(iv) any instrument governing Indebtedness or Capital Stock of a Person acquired by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries as in effect at the time of such acquisition (except to the extent such Indebtedness or Capital Stock was incurred in connection with or in contemplation of such acquisition), which encumbrance or restriction is not applicable to any Person, or the properties or assets of any Person, other than the Person, or the property or assets of the Person, so acquired; provided that, in the case of Indebtedness, such Indebtedness was permitted by the terms of this Agreement to be incurred;

(v) customary non-assignment provisions in leases and other agreements entered into in the ordinary course of business;

(a) The Borrower and its Subsidiaries will not consummate an Asset Sale unless:

(ii) the fair market value is determined by the Borrower’s Board of Directors and evidenced by a resolution of the Board of Directors set forth in an officers’ certificate delivered to the Administrative Agent; and

(iii) at least 75% of the consideration received in the Asset Sale by the Borrower or such Subsidiary of the Borrower is in the form of cash or Cash Equivalents except to the extent the Borrower is undertaking a Permitted Asset Swap. For purposes of this provision and subparagraph (b)(iii) below, each of the following shall be deemed to be cash:

(A) any liabilities, as shown on the Borrower’s most recent consolidated balance sheet of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries (other than contingent liabilities and liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the Loans and the Senior Subordinated Notes) that are assumed by the transferee of any such assets pursuant to a customary novation agreement that releases the Borrower or such Subsidiary from further liability; and

(B) any securities, notes or other obligations received by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries from such transferee converted by the Borrower or such Subsidiary within 90 days into cash or Cash Equivalents, to the extent of the cash or Cash Equivalents received in that conversion.

The 75% limitation referred to in clause (iii) above will not apply to any Asset Sale in which the cash or Cash Equivalents portion of the consideration received therefrom, determined in accordance with the preceding provision, is equal to or greater than what the after tax proceeds would have been had such Asset Sale complied with the aforementioned 75% limitation.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries will be permitted to consummate an Asset Sale without complying with the foregoing if:

(i) the Borrower or such Subsidiary receives consideration at the time of such Asset Sale at least equal to the fair market value of the assets or other property sold, issued or otherwise disposed of;

104

(ii) the fair market value is determined by the Borrower’s Board of Directors and evidenced by a resolution of the Board of Directors set forth in certificate of a Financial Officer delivered to the Administrative Agent; and

(iii) at least 75% of the consideration for such Asset Sale constitutes a controlling interest in a Permitted Business, assets used or useful in a Permitted Business and/or cash and Cash Equivalents;

provided, however, that any cash or Cash Equivalents (other than any amount deemed cash under clause (iii)(A) of Section 7.7(a)) received by the Borrower or such Subsidiary in connection with any Asset Sale permitted to be consummated under this paragraph shall constitute Net Cash Payments subject to the provisions of Section 2.11(b).

7.8 Business Activities. Until the consummation of a Qualifying IPO, the Borrower will not, and will not permit any Subsidiary to, engage in any business other than Permitted Businesses, except to such extent as would not be material to the Borrower and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole.

7.9 Limitation on Issuances of Equity Interests in Wholly Owned Subsidiaries.

(a) The Borrower and its Subsidiaries shall not transfer, convey, sell, lease or otherwise dispose of any Equity Interests in any Wholly Owned Subsidiary of the Borrower to any Person (other than the Borrower or another Wholly Owned Subsidiary of the Borrower) unless:

(i) as a result of such transfer, conveyance, sale, lease or other disposition or as a result of such issuance described below, such Subsidiary of the Borrower no longer constitutes a Subsidiary; and

(ii) the Net Cash Payments from such transfer, conveyance, sale, lease or other disposition are applied in accordance with Section 2.11(b) hereof to the extent required thereby.

(b) In addition, the Borrower will not permit any Wholly Owned Subsidiary of the Borrower to issue any of its Equity Interests (other than, if necessary, shares of its Capital Stock constituting directors’ qualifying shares) to any Person other than to the Borrower or a Wholly Owned Subsidiary of the Borrower unless the terms of clauses (i) and (ii) above are satisfied.

7.10 Stay, Extension and Usury Laws. The Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay, extension or usury law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, that may affect the covenants or the performance of this Agreement; and the Borrower and each of the Guarantors (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it will not, by resort to any such law, hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Administrative Agent, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law has been enacted.

105

(a) Empire Burbank shall not (i) amend, modify or change, or consent or agree to any amendment, modification or change to, the Empire Burbank Loan Documents in a manner which materially adversely affects the Administrative Agent or the Lenders or (ii) amend, modify or change, or consent or agree to any amendment, modification or change to, the Empire Burbank Lease in a manner which materially adversely affects the Administrative Agent or the Lenders (it being understood that no amendment or modification to the last sentence of Section 5.2 of the Empire Burbank Lease (regarding the rights of creditors to enter the premises to exercise rights and remedies regarding personal property of LBCI) shall be permitted without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent) without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, so long as no Default shall have occurred and be continuing and no Default shall be caused thereby, Empire Burbank may at any time pay or prepay in full or in part the obligations owing under the Empire Burbank Loan Documents (whether or not such payment or prepayment is made with the proceeds of a Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness in respect of the Empire Burbank Loan).

(b) The Borrower agrees to deliver to the Administrative Agent prompt written notice of any written declaration of default made by the lender under the Empire Burbank Loan Documents.

(a) the Credit Parties shall fail to pay to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders (i) any principal of any Loan on the due date thereof, (ii) any interest on any Loan within three Business Days after the same shall become due and payable, whether at the due date thereof or at a date fixed for prepayment thereof or otherwise, or (iii) any other amount payable under this Agreement or any fee payable under this Agreement or any other agreement, within five Business Days after the same shall become due and payable, whether at the due date thereof or at a date fixed for prepayment thereof, by acceleration of such due or prepayment date, or otherwise;

(b) any representation or warranty made or deemed made by or on behalf of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries in or in connection with this Agreement or any amendment or modification hereof or of any Loan Document, or in any report, certificate, financial statement or other document furnished pursuant to or in connection with this Agreement or any amendment or modification hereof or of any Loan Document, shall prove to have been incorrect when made or deemed made in any material respect;

(d) any Credit Party fails to comply with the provisions of Section 2.11(b), 7.1, 7.4 or 7.7 hereof and such failure shall continue unremedied for a period of 30 days after the earlier of (x) actual knowledge by a Financial Officer of any Credit Party or (y) notice thereof from the Administrative Agent (given at the request of any Lender) to the Borrower;

(e) any Credit Party fails to observe or perform any other covenant or other agreement in this Agreement for 60 days after the earlier of (x) actual knowledge by a Financial Officer of any Credit Party or (y) notice thereof from the Administrative Agent (given at the request of any Lender) to the Borrower;

(f) a default occurs under any agreement, mortgage, indenture or instrument under which there may be issued or by which there may be secured or evidenced any Indebtedness for money borrowed by any Credit Party (or the payment of which is guaranteed by any Credit Party), whether such Indebtedness or Guarantee now exists, or is created after the date hereof, if that default:

(i) is caused by a failure to pay principal of such Indebtedness at the final stated maturity thereof (giving effect to any applicable grace periods and any extensions thereof) (a “Payment Default”); or

(ii) results in the acceleration of such Indebtedness prior to its express maturity;

and, in each case, the principal amount of any such Indebtedness, together with the principal amount of any other such Indebtedness under which there has been and continues to be a Payment Default or the maturity of which has been and continues to be so accelerated, aggregates $5,000,000 or more;

107

(g) a final judgment or judgments for the payment of money in excess of $10,000,000 in the aggregate (exclusive of judgment amounts fully covered by insurance where the insurer has acknowledged coverage in respect of such judgment (it being understood that an insurer may assert a reservation of rights under applicable policies)) shall be rendered by one or more courts, administrative tribunals or other bodies having jurisdiction against any Credit Party and the same shall not be vacated or discharged (or provision shall not be made for such discharge), or a stay of execution thereof shall not be procured, within 60 days from the date of entry thereof and the relevant Credit Party shall not, within said period of 60 days, or such longer period during which execution of the same shall have been stayed, appeal therefrom and cause the execution thereof to be stayed during such appeal;

(h) any Change of Control shall have occurred;

(i) the incurrence by Holdings of Specified Parent Debt (other than the refinancing of any indebtedness under the Holdings Securities Purchase Agreement) if, at the time of any such incurrence and after giving pro forma effect to such incurrence as of such date and to the use of proceeds therefrom, as if the same had occurred at the beginning of the most recently ended four fiscal quarter period of Holdings for which internal financial statements are available, the Holdings Debt Ratio would have exceeded 7.0 to 1 and the failure for 30 days after notice from the Administrative Agent (given at the request of the Required Lenders) to cure such default;

(j) except as permitted by this Agreement, any Guarantee of a Significant Subsidiary under Article 3 hereof is held in any judicial proceeding to be unenforceable or invalid or shall cease for any reason to be in full force and effect or any Guarantor which is a Significant Subsidiary, or any Person acting on behalf of any Guarantor which is a Significant Subsidiary, shall deny or disaffirm its obligations under its Guarantee under Article 3 hereof; provided, however, that an Event of Default will also be deemed to occur with respect to the Guarantors that are not Significant Subsidiaries (“Insignificant Subsidiaries”) if the Guarantees under Article 3 of such Insignificant Subsidiaries are held in any judicial proceeding to be unenforceable or invalid or shall cease for any reason to be in full force and effect or such Insignificant Subsidiaries deny or disaffirm their obligations under their Guarantees (other than in accordance with the terms of Article 3), if when aggregated and taken as a whole the Insignificant Subsidiaries subject to this clause (i) would meet the definition of a Significant Subsidiary;

(k) the Borrower or any of its Significant Subsidiaries or any group of Subsidiaries that, taken as a whole, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary, pursuant to or within the meaning of Bankruptcy Law:

(i) commences a voluntary case,

(ii) consents to the entry of an order for relief against it in an involuntary case,

(iii) consents to the appointment of a custodian of it or for all or substantially all of its property,

108

(iv) makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors, or

(v) generally is not paying its debts as they become due;

(l) a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree under any Bankruptcy Law that:

(A) is for relief against the Borrower or any of its Significant Subsidiaries or any group of Subsidiaries that, taken as a whole, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary in an involuntary case;

(B) appoints a custodian of the Borrower or any of its Significant Subsidiaries or any group of Subsidiaries that, taken as a whole, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary or for all or substantially all of the property of the Borrower or any of its Significant Subsidiaries or any group of Subsidiaries that, taken as a whole, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary; or

(C) orders the liquidation of the Borrower or any of its Significant Subsidiaries or any group of Subsidiaries that, taken as a whole, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary;

and the order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 60 consecutive days;

(m) other than as a result of an asset sale or other Asset Sale permitted hereunder or from the conversion of any Broadcast Station to digital television or in connection with any Relocation, except any such conversion or Relocation which causes a Material Adverse Effect, any Credit Party shall (i) lose, fail to keep in force, suffer the termination, suspension or revocation of, or terminate or forfeit, any Material FCC License(s), or (ii) suffer any adverse amendment to any FCC License(s) if, in the case of this clause (ii), the same could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect;

(n) any Credit Party shall permit its on-the-air broadcast operations to be interrupted at any time for more than seven days, whether or not consecutive, during any period of ten consecutive days, if such interruption is likely to have a Material Adverse Effect (after giving effect to any applicable business interruption insurance) unless (and only so long as), substantially all damages, liabilities and other effects of such interruption of service (including any adverse effect on the Credit Parties’ ability to perform its obligations under this Agreement) are fully covered by business interruption insurance;

then, and in every such event (other than an event described in clauses (k) or (l) of this Section 8.1), and at any time thereafter during the continuance of such event, the Administrative Agent may, and at the request of the Required Lenders shall, by notice to the Credit Parties, take either or both of the following actions, at the same or different times: (i) terminate the Commitments, and thereupon the Commitments shall terminate immediately, and (ii) declare the Loans then outstanding to be due and payable in whole (or in part, in which case any principal not so declared to be due and payable may thereafter be declared to be due and payable), and thereupon the principal of the Loans so declared to be due and payable, together with accrued interest thereon and all fees and other obligations of the Credit Parties accrued hereunder, shall

109

become due and payable immediately, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by the Credit Parties. Upon the occurrence of any such event, the Administrative Agent may, and at the request of the Required Lenders shall, direct the Collateral Agent to exercise all of the rights hereunder or under the Collateral Documents or applicable law, including the rights as secured party and mortgagee under the Collateral Documents; and in case of any event described in clauses (k) or (l) of this Section 8.1, the Commitments shall automatically terminate and the principal of the Loans then outstanding, together with accrued interest thereon and all fees and other obligations of the Credit Parties accrued hereunder, shall automatically become due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by the Credit Parties, and the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall be permitted to exercise (or to direct the Collateral Agent to exercise) such rights hereunder or under the Collateral Documents or applicable law, including the rights as secured party and mortgagee under the Collateral Documents to the extent permitted by applicable law.

ARTICLE 9

The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent

9.1 Appointment and Authorization.

(a) Each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints (i) the Administrative Agent as its administrative agent and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, and (ii) the Collateral Agent as its collateral agent and authorizes the Collateral Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Collateral Agent by the terms of this Agreement and the other Senior Facilities Documents, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The Collateral Agent hereby agrees to act as representative and bailee with respect to the Collateral for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders upon the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

(b) Each Lender authorizes and directs the Collateral Agent to enter into the Collateral Documents. Any action taken by the Collateral Agent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents relating to the Collateral, and the exercise by the Collateral Agent of its powers set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers that are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be binding upon all of the Lenders.

9.2 Administrative Agent’s and Collateral Agent’s Rights as Lender. The bank or other financial institution serving as the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender hereunder as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, and such institution and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of business with any Credit Party or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate of any thereof as if it were not the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent hereunder.

110

9.3 Duties As Expressly Stated. Neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent shall have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, as the case may be, are required to exercise pursuant to a written direction from the Required Lenders, the Required Senior Lenders, the Majority Facility Lenders or, in the case of the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent, as applicable (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders or Senior Lenders as is required hereunder or under any other Loan Document with respect to such action), (c) except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, or shall be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to any Credit Party or any of their respective Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by the financial institution serving as the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any of its Affiliates or Approved Funds in any capacity, and (d) the Collateral Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to the Administrative Agent or any Lender or any other Person to investigate, confirm or assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by the Credit Parties or is cared for, protected or insured or has been encumbered, or that the Liens granted to the Collateral Agent under the Collateral Documents or otherwise have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or to exercise at all or in any particular manner, or under any duty of care, disclosure or fidelity, or to continue exercising, any of the rights, authorities and powers granted or available to the Collateral Agent in this Agreement or in any of the other Loan Documents, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the Collateral, or any act, omission or event related thereto, the Collateral Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its discretion, exercised in good faith, and that the Collateral Agent shall have no duty or liability whatsoever to the Administrative Agent or any Lender, except for any liability to the Administrative Agent or a Lender as a result of any action or inaction by the Collateral Agent that is determined to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct pursuant to a final, non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction. The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders, the Required Senior Lenders, the Majority Facility Lenders or, in the case of the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent, as applicable (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders or the Senior Lenders as is required hereunder or under any other Loan Document with respect to such action) or all of the Lenders if expressly required, or in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent by the Borrower or a Lender, and each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in, or in connection with, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents or in connection herewith of therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of

111

the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or in any other Loan Document, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article 5 or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent or, in the case of the Collateral Agent, to inspect the properties, books or records of any Credit Party. The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall not, except to the extent the Collateral Agent expressly is instructed by the Majority Facility Lenders (or the Required Senior Lenders, as the case may be) with respect to collateral security under the Senior Facilities Documents, be required to initiate or conduct any litigation or collection proceedings hereunder or under any other Loan Document; provided, however, that neither Agent shall be required to take any action which exposes such Agent to personal liability or which is contrary to the Loan Documents or applicable law.

9.4 Reliance By Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent. The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts. The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall first receive written advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders, the Required Senior Lenders, the Majority Facility Lenders or, in the case of the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent, as the case may be (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders) as it deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action (it being understood that this provision shall not release the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent from performing any action with respect to the Borrower expressly required to be performed by it pursuant to the terms hereof) under this Agreement. The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders, the Required Senior Lenders, the Majority Facility Lenders or, in the case of the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent, as the case may be (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders), and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders and all future holders of the Loans.

9.5 Action Through Sub-Agents. Each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent may perform any and all of its duties, and exercise its rights and powers, by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent. The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers through its Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of the preceding paragraphs shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the

112

Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to its activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities of the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent.

9.6 Resignation of Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent and Appointment of Successor Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent.

(a) The Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, (i) in the case of a resignation of the Administrative Agent, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with the prior written consent of the Borrower (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed and shall not be required during the continuance of an Event of Default), to appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be a bank with an office in Los Angeles, California or New York, New York, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in Los Angeles, California or New York, New York, and (ii) in the case of a resignation of the Collateral Agent, the Majority Facility Lenders (or, after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Acceleration, the Required Senior Lenders) shall have the right, with the prior written consent of the Borrower (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed and shall not be required during the continuance of an Event of Default), to appoint a successor Collateral Agent, which shall be a bank with an office in Los Angeles, California or New York, New York, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in Los Angeles, California or New York, New York. If no such successor Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders or the Majority Facility Lenders, respectively, with the consent of the Borrower and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent or retiring Collateral Agent, as the case may be, gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent or retiring Collateral Agent, as the case may be, may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent or successor Collateral Agent, as applicable, meeting the qualifications set forth above; provided that, in the case of the retiring Administrative Agent, if the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (1) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, and (2) all payments, communications and determinations provided hereunder to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time as the Required Lenders with the consent of the Borrower appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above in this paragraph. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as the case may be, and the retiring Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as the case may be, shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this paragraph and except that the resigning Collateral Agent shall, at the expense of the Credit Parties, without representation, warranty or recourse, execute and deliver such documents, instruments and agreements as are reasonably necessary to effect an assignment of the rights and obligations of the retiring Collateral Agent to the successor Collateral Agent and deliver all Collateral then in its possession to the successor Collateral Agent). Any resignation of the Collateral Agent shall not affect in

113

any way the validity or perfection of the Liens under the Loan Documents. The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent or a successor Collateral Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the retiring Administrative Agent’s or retiring Collateral Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article and Section 11.3 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent or while the retiring Collateral Agent was acting as Collateral Agent.

9.7 Lenders’ Independent Decisions. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder. Except as explicitly provided herein, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent do not have any duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to provide any Lender with any credit or other information with respect to such operations, business, property, condition or creditworthiness, whether such information comes into its possession on or before the first Event of Default or at any time thereafter. Neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent shall be deemed a trustee or other fiduciary on behalf of any party. The Collateral Agent shall not be required to keep itself informed as to the performance or observance by the Borrower or any other Credit Party of any term or provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or to inspect the properties or books of the Borrower or any other Credit Party.

9.8 Indemnification. Each Lender agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Agents and the Joint Lead Arrangers (to the extent not reimbursed under Section 11.3, but without limiting the obligations of the Borrower under Section 11.3), ratably in accordance with the aggregate principal amount of the respective Commitments of and/or Loans held by the Lenders (or, if all of the Commitments shall have been terminated or expired, ratably in accordance with the aggregate outstanding amount of the Loans held by the Lenders), for any and all liabilities (including pursuant to any Environmental Law), obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, deficiencies, suits, costs, expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees) or disbursements of any kind and nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Agents or the Joint Lead Arrangers (including by any Lender) arising out of or by reason of any investigation in or in any way relating to or arising out of any Loan Document or any other documents contemplated by or referred to therein for any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Joint Lead Arrangers under or in respect of any of the Loan Documents or other such documents or the transactions contemplated thereby (including the costs and expenses that the Borrower is obligated to pay under Section 11.3, but excluding, unless a Default has occurred and is continuing, normal administrative costs and expenses incident to the performance of its agency duties hereunder) or the enforcement of any of the terms hereof or thereof or of any such other

114

documents; provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for any of the foregoing to the extent they are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party to be indemnified. The agreements set forth in this Section 9.8 shall survive the payment of all Loans and other obligations hereunder and shall be in addition to and not in lieu of any other indemnification agreements contained in any other Loan Document.

9.9 Consents Under Other Loan Documents. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent may, with the prior consent of the Required Lenders (but not otherwise), consent to any modification, supplement or waiver under any of the other Loan Documents.

9.10 Co-Syndication Agents and Documentation Agent. Neither the Co-Syndication Agents nor the Documentation Agent shall have any duties or obligations under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, express or implied. No such Agent shall incur any personal liability by reason of being named the Co-Syndication Agents or the Documentation Agent hereunder.

ARTICLE 10

Special Provisions Governing Collateral

10.1 Pari Passu. Each of the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent and each Lender acknowledges that the Collateral is being granted by the Credit Parties to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Senior Lenders on a pari passu basis in all respects and at all times as set forth herein without any priority of one Senior Lender over any other with respect to such Collateral.

10.2 Turnover of Collateral. If any Lender acquires custody, control or possession of any assets of the Credit Parties or proceeds therefrom, whether by set-off, counterclaim or otherwise (other than deposit accounts of the Credit Parties and amounts on deposit therein), other than pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, such Lender shall promptly cause such assets or proceeds to be delivered to or put in the custody, possession or control of the Collateral Agent or, if the Collateral Agent shall so designate, an agent of the Collateral Agent (which agent may be a branch or affiliate of the Collateral Agent or any Lender) in the same form of payment received, with appropriate endorsements for distribution in accordance with the Intercreditor Agreement. Until such time as the provisions of the immediately preceding sentence have been complied with, such Lender shall be deemed to hold such Collateral and proceeds in trust for the Collateral Agent.

10.3 Right to Enforce Agreement.

(a) The Collateral Agent shall have the exclusive right to manage, perform and enforce the terms of the Collateral Documents with respect to the Collateral, to exercise and enforce all privileges and rights thereunder in respect of the Collateral according to its discretion exercised in good faith (notwithstanding any Default under the Senior Facilities Documents), including, without limitation, the exclusive right to administer, take or retake control or

115

possession of any Collateral, to hold, prepare for sale, process, sell, lease, dispose of, or liquidate any Collateral, to foreclose or forbear from foreclosure in respect of any Collateral, seeking or not seeking relief from any stay against foreclosure or other remedies in any insolvency proceeding in respect of any Collateral and the acceptance of any Collateral in full or partial satisfaction of any indebtedness. Subject to Section 11.12, only the Collateral Agent, acting at the direction of the Administrative Agent and the Revolving Credit Agent (or, after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Acceleration, the Required Senior Lenders) and in accordance with the Senior Facilities Documents, shall have the right to restrict or permit, or approve or disapprove, the sale, transfer or other disposition of Collateral, in each case in connection with enforcement of its foreclosure remedies under the Loan Documents. Any costs and expenses or other amounts paid or to be paid by the Collateral Agent may be paid by the Senior Lenders and shall constitute part of the Secured Obligations secured by the Collateral.

(b) Promptly upon the request of the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent will, at the expense of Credit Parties, join in enforcement, collection, execution, levy or foreclosure proceedings with respect to the Collateral and otherwise cooperate fully in the maintenance of such proceedings by the Collateral Agent, including, without limitation, by executing and delivering all such directions, consents, pleadings, releases and other documents and instruments as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request in connection therewith, it being understood that the conduct of such proceedings shall at all times be under the exclusive control of the Collateral Agent.

11.2 Waivers; Amendments.

(a) No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure by any Credit Party or Subsidiary therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by Section 11.2(b), and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time.

(b) Neither this Agreement nor any other Loan Document nor any provision hereof or thereof may be waived, amended or modified except to the extent this Agreement or any other Loan Document provides for revisions to the schedules hereto or thereto with the approval of the Administrative Agent or except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrower and the Required Lenders or by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent with the written consent of the Required Lenders and the Administrative Agent; provided that no such agreement shall:

(i) increase the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender and the Administrative Agent, except that the consent of the Administrative Agent shall not be required with respect to any Term Loan Increase;

(ii) reduce the principal amount of any Loan or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce any fees payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby;

(iii) postpone the scheduled date of payment of the principal amount of any Loan other than mandatory prepayments of the Loans required under Section 2.11(b), or any interest thereon, or any fees payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, change the maturity date of any Loan, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby;

(iv) change Section 2.11(c) in a manner that would alter the application of prepayments thereunder, or change Section 2.18(b) or (c) in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, without in each case the written consent of each Lender;

117

(v) change any of the provisions of this Section 11.2 or the definition of “Required Lenders” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or under any other Loan Document or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder or thereunder, without the written consent of each Lender;

(vi) release all or substantially all of the Guarantors from their obligations in respect of its Guarantee under Article 3 or release all or substantially all of the Collateral (or terminate any Lien with respect thereto), except as expressly permitted in the Loan Documents, without the written consent of each Lender; or

(vii) waive any of the conditions precedent specified in Section 5.1 without the consent of each Lender and the Administrative Agent;

provided further that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent.

(c) Waivers, amendments and modifications of the Loan Documents are subject to the requirements specified in Section 11.2(b) and, unless and until the Intercreditor Agreement shall terminate in accordance with its terms, Section 3 of the Intercreditor Agreement.

11.3 Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver.

(a) The Credit Parties jointly and severally agree to pay, or reimburse the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Joint Lead Arrangers or the Lenders, as applicable, for paying, (i) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Joint Lead Arrangers and their Affiliates, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of Special Counsel, any FCC counsel or local counsel, in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), (ii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Collateral Agent which the Collateral Agent may incur in connection with (x) the administration of this Agreement and the Collateral Documents, or (y) the custody or preservation of, the sale of, collection from, or other realization upon, any of the Collateral, (iii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Joint Lead Arranger or any Lender, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Joint Lead Arranger or any Lender, in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section 11.3, or in connection with the Loans made hereunder, including in connection with any insolvency proceeding, workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect thereof, and (iv) all Other Taxes levied by any Governmental Authority in respect of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or any other document referred to herein or therein and all costs, expenses, taxes, assessments and other

118

charges incurred in connection with any filing, registration, recording or perfection of any security interest contemplated by any Collateral Document or any other document referred to therein.

(b) The Credit Parties jointly and severally agree to indemnify the Agents, the Joint Lead Arrangers and each Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee and settlement costs, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby (excluding fees, charges and disbursements of counsel to any Lender not acting as the Administrative Agent in connection with the execution and delivery by such Indemnitee of the Loan Documents), the performance or failure to perform by the parties hereto and thereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions or any other transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) any Loan or the use of the proceeds therefrom, (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by any Credit Party or any of their Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to any Credit Party or any of their Subsidiaries, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing (including in connection with any insolvency proceeding), whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have) resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee.

(c) To the extent that the Credit Parties fail to pay any amount required to be paid by them to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Joint Lead Arranger under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 11.3, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or such Joint Lead Arranger, as applicable, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or such Joint Lead Arranger, as applicable, in its capacity as such.

(d) To the extent permitted by applicable law, none of the Credit Parties shall assert, and each Credit Party hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the Transactions, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof.

(e) All amounts due under this Section 11.3 shall be payable promptly after written demand therefor.

119

11.4 Successors and Assigns.

(a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that no Credit Party may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender and the Administrative Agent (and any attempted assignment or transfer by any Credit Party without such consent shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(b) Any Lender may assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it) and may assign its Term Loans; provided that:

(i) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund of a Lender, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent each must give its prior written consent to such assignment (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned),

(ii) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or Approved Fund with respect to a Lender or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Loans or Commitment, the amount of the Loans or Commitment of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than the lesser of $1,000,000, unless the Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent;

(iii) the parties to each assignment (other than an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or Approved Fund with respect to a Lender) shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,000, provided that in the case of contemporaneous assignments by a Lender to more than one Approved Fund with respect to a Lender managed by the same investment adviser (which funds are not then Lenders), only a single such $3,000 fee shall be payable for all such contemporaneous assignments, and

(iv) the assignee shall be an Eligible Assignee and shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire;

provided further that any consent of the Borrower otherwise required under this paragraph shall not be required (i) if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (ii) in the event of an assignment to an existing Lender, or (iii) in the event of an assignment by General Electric Capital Corporation following a determination by such Lender or its affiliate, the National Broadcasting Company (“NBC”), that continued ownership of rights or obligations hereunder

120

would (A) violate FCC rules pertinent to attributable ownership or (B) cause NBC to forgo investments or acquisition opportunities in any of the markets in which the Borrower then operates, then, in each case, such Lender shall consult with the Borrower and the Administrative Agent regarding proposed assignees and use reasonable efforts to cause such assignment to an assignee reasonably acceptable to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the restrictions of Section 11.4(b)(ii) shall not apply until the date on which the primary syndication of the Commitments has been completed.

(c) Upon acceptance and recording pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section 11.4, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 11.3 with respect to matters described therein occurring or accruing prior to the effective date of any such Assignment and Acceptance). Notwithstanding anything therein to the contrary, no Approved Fund shall be entitled to receive any greater amount pursuant to Sections 2.15, 2.16 and 2.17 than the transferor Lender would have been entitled to receive in respect of the assignment effected by such transferor Lender had no assignment occurred. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with paragraph (b) of this Section 11.4 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (f) of this Section.

(d) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices in New York, New York or Los Angeles, California a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance and Lender Joinder Agreement delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal amount of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive (absent manifest error), and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary (absent manifest error). The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender or the Administrative Agent, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(e) (i) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section 11.4 and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section 11.4, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Acceptance and record the information contained therein

121

in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph, and (ii) upon its receipt of a duly completed Lender Joinder Agreement executed by a New Lender and Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 2.1(b), and the New Lender’s completed Administrative Questionnaire, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Lender Joinder Agreement and record the information contained therein in the Register.

(f) Any Lender may, without the consent of or notice to the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 11.2(b), or Section 11.2(c), that affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (g) of this Section 11.4, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.15. 2.16 and 2.17 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section 11.4.

(g) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.15 or 2.17 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.17 unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Section 2.17(e) as though it were a Lender.

(h) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any such pledge or assignment to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(i) Anything in this Section 11.4 to the contrary notwithstanding, no Lender may assign or participate any interest in any Loan held by it hereunder to any Credit Party or any of its Affiliates or Subsidiaries without the prior consent of each Lender and the Administrative Agent.

122

(j) A Lender may furnish any information concerning any Credit Party, Holding Company or Subsidiary in the possession of such Lender from time to time to assignees and participants (including prospective assignees and participants) subject, however, to and so long as the recipient agrees in writing to be bound by, the provisions of Section 11.13. In addition, the Administrative Agent may furnish any information concerning any Credit Party or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates in the Administrative Agent’s possession to any Affiliate of the Administrative Agent, subject, however, to the provisions of Section 11.13. The Credit Parties shall assist any Lender in effectuating any assignment or participation pursuant to this Section 11.4 (including during syndication) in whatever manner such Lender reasonably deems necessary, including participation in meetings with prospective transferees.

(k) Each Lender listed on the signature pages hereof hereby agrees that it is an Eligible Assignee described in the definition thereof. Each Lender that becomes a party hereto pursuant to an Assignment and Acceptance shall be deemed to agree that the agreements of such Lender contained in Section 3 of such Assignment and Acceptance are incorporated herein by this reference.

11.5 Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Credit Parties and Subsidiaries herein and in the other Loan Documents, and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the making of any Loans, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect so long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents is outstanding and unpaid and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 11.3 and Article 9 shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans and the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any provision hereof or thereof.

11.6 Counterparts; Integration; References to Agreement; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent or its counsel and to certain other lenders constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Whenever there is a reference in any Collateral Document or UCC Financing Statement to the “Credit Agreement” to which the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Credit Parties are parties, such reference shall be deemed to be made to this Agreement among the parties hereto. Except as provided in Section 5.1, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear

123

the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

11.7 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.

11.8 Right of Setoff. Subject to Section 2.18, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by such Lender to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any of and all the obligations of the Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement and although such obligations may be unmatured. The rights of each Lender under this Section 11.8 are in addition to any other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender may have.

11.9 Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process.

(a) This Agreement and all issues arising with respect hereto, including the validity or enforceability of any agreement contained herein and the issue of usury with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby, shall be construed in all respects in accordance with and governed by the law of the State of New York.

(b) Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the courts of State of New York and of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York court (or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court). Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement against any Credit Party or Subsidiary or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.

(c) Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents in any court referred to in paragraph

124

(b) of this Section 11.9. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

(d) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 11.1. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

11.10 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 11.10.

11.11 Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and shall not affect the construction of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.

11.12 Release of Collateral and Guarantees. The Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders agree that if all of the capital stock of or other equity interests in, or any assets of, any Subsidiary that is owned by the Credit Parties is sold to any Person as permitted by the terms of this Agreement and the Collateral Documents, or if any Subsidiary is merged or consolidated with or into any other Person as permitted by the terms of this Agreement and such Subsidiary is not the continuing or surviving corporation, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall, upon request of the Borrower (and upon the receipt by the Administrative Agent of such evidence as the Administrative Agent or any Lender may reasonably request to establish that such sale, designation, merger or consolidation is permitted by the terms of this Agreement), terminate the Guarantee of such Subsidiary under Article 3 and authorize the Collateral Agent to release the Lien created by the Collateral Documents on any capital stock of or other equity interests in such Subsidiary and on any assets of such Subsidiary.

11.13 Confidentiality. Each Lender agrees to keep confidential information obtained by it pursuant hereto and the other Loan Documents confidential in accordance with such Lender’s customary practices and agrees that it will only use such information in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and not disclose any of such information other than (a) to such Lender’s employees, representatives, directors, officers, accountants, attorneys, auditors (including any external auditors), agents, professional advisors, trustees or Affiliates who are advised of the confidential nature of such information or to any direct or indirect contractual counter party in swap agreements or such contractual counter party’s professional

125

advisor (so long as such auditors, contractual counterparty or professional advisor to such contractual counter party agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Section 11.13), (b) to the extent such information presently is or hereafter becomes available to such Lender on a non-confidential basis from any source of such information that is in the public domain at the time of disclosure (so long as such information does not become publicly available as a result of a breach of this Section 11.13), (c) to the extent disclosure is required by law (including applicable securities law), regulation, subpoena or judicial order or process (provided that notice of such requirement or order shall be promptly furnished to the Borrower unless such notice is legally prohibited) or requested or required by bank, securities, insurance or investment company regulators or auditors or any administrative body or commission (including the Securities Valuation Office of the National Association of Insurance Commissioners) to whose jurisdiction such Lender or its Affiliates may be subject, (d) to any rating agency to the extent required in connection with any rating to be assigned to such Lender, (e) to assignees or participants or prospective assignees or participants who agree to be bound by the provisions of this Section 11.13, (f) to the extent required in connection with any litigation between any Credit Party and any Lender with respect to the Loans or this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or (g) with the Borrower’s prior written consent.

11.14 Continued Effectiveness; No Novation. Notwithstanding anything contained herein, the terms of this Agreement are not intended to and do not serve to effect a novation of the obligations, liabilities or indebtedness of the Credit Parties under the Existing Credit Agreement. Instead, it is the express intention of the parties hereto to reaffirm, amend and restate the obligations, liabilities and indebtedness created under or otherwise evidenced by the Existing Credit Agreement that is evidenced by the notes provided for therein and secured by the collateral contemplated thereby and hereby (it being understood that it was the intention of the parties to the Existing Credit Agreement to reaffirm, amend and restate the obligations, liabilities and indebtedness created under or otherwise evidenced by the Prior Credit Agreements that is evidenced by the notes provided for therein and secured by the collateral contemplated thereby). The Credit Parties acknowledge and confirm that the liens and security interests granted pursuant to the Loan Documents secure the obligations, liabilities and indebtedness of the Credit Parties to the Lenders under the Existing Credit Agreement, as amended and restated hereby, and that the term “Secured Obligations” used in certain of the Loan Documents (or any other term used herein to describe or refer to the obligations, liabilities and indebtedness of the Credit Parties) describes and refers to the Credit Parties’ obligations, liabilities and indebtedness hereunder and under the Existing Credit Agreement, as amended and restated hereby, as the same had been amended, modified, supplemented or restated prior to the date hereof and as the same may be further amended, modified, supplemented or restated from time to time. The Loan Documents and all agreements, documents and instruments executed and delivered in connection with any of the foregoing shall each be deemed to be amended to the extent necessary to give effect to the provisions of this Agreement. Cross-references in the Loan Documents to particular section or subsection numbers in any Prior Credit Agreement shall be deemed to be cross-references to the corresponding sections or subsections, as applicable, of this Agreement.

11.15 USA Patriot Act. Each Lender hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender to identify the Borrower in accordance with the Patriot Act, and the Borrower agrees to provide such information from time to time to any Lender upon reasonable request.

126

11.16 Commitments. Upon the effectiveness hereof, the Administrative Agent shall reallocate the commitments and Loans of the Lenders hereunder and shall notify the Lenders of any payments required to be made so that the commitments and Loans of the Lenders are in accordance with Schedule 2.1. Upon receipt of such notice, each Lender shall make the payments specified therein.

127

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Amended and Restated Term Loan Agreement to be duly executed by their respective authorized officers as of the day and year first above written.
