beneficial ownership over all the Assets, together with all rights, powers and privileges incident thereto, and shall be deemed to have assumed in accordance with the terms of this Agreement all the Liabilities, and all duties, obligations and responsibilities incident thereto, which such Party (or, after giving effect to the Restructuring and the Distribution, any Subsidiary of such Party) is entitled to acquire or required to assume pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

(e) Termination of Intercompany Agreements.

(i) On or prior to the Distribution Date, the TWDC Entities, on the one hand, and the Spinco Entities, on the other hand, shall terminate any and all Contracts, between or among TWDC and/or any TWDC Entity, on the one hand, and Spinco and/or any Spinco Entity, on the other hand, effective as of the Distribution Date. No such terminated agreement, arrangement, commitment or understanding (including any provision thereof that purports to survive termination) shall be of any further force or effect after the Distribution Date and all parties shall be released from all obligations thereunder. Each Party shall, at the reasonable request of the other Party, take, or cause to be taken, such other actions as may be necessary to effect the foregoing.

(ii) On or prior to the Distribution Date, all loans (including any intercompany accounts) by and between any TWDC Entity, on the one hand, and any Spinco Entity, on the other hand, shall be terminated, all related notes (if any) shall be cancelled and all outstanding Indebtedness thereunder shall be released and forgiven; provided, however, the form of any such transaction shall be solely in TWDC’s discretion.

(iii) The provisions of Section 2.01(e) shall not apply to this Agreement and the other Transaction Agreements.

(f) Except as otherwise specifically set forth in this Agreement, the rights and obligations of the Parties with respect to Taxes shall be governed exclusively by the Tax Sharing Agreement, and, accordingly, Taxes shall not be treated as Assets or Liabilities for purposes of, or otherwise governed by, this Section 2.01.

(g) The Parties have attempted to allocate all Intellectual Property that affects both the Business and the business of the TWDC Entities in the Transaction Agreements. Without limiting anything contained herein, in the event that at any time or from time to time after the Distribution Date any Party (or any Spinco Entity or TWDC Entity, as applicable) becomes aware of any Intellectual Property that is not allocated to Spinco or a Spinco Subsidiary pursuant to this Agreement or any other Transaction Agreement but that as of the Distribution Date was used or held for use in the Business, or any Intellectual Property that is allocated to Spinco or a Spinco Subsidiary pursuant to this Agreement or any other Transaction Agreement but as of the Distribution Date was used or held for use by TWDC or a Subsidiary of TWDC and, in each case, is not covered by any Transaction Agreement, then the parties shall negotiate in good faith a license agreement that will enable each to use such Intellectual Property after the Distribution Date in substantially the same manner and on substantially the same terms as existed as of the Distribution Date.

Section 2.02 Documents Relating to the Transfer of Assets and Assumption of Liabilities. In furtherance of the assignment, transfer and conveyance of Business Assets and the assumption of Business Liabilities pursuant to Section 2.01, on or prior to the Distribution Date and, with respect to Delayed Transfer Assets and Delayed Transfer Liabilities, at such time after the Distribution Date as such Delayed Transfer Asset or Delayed Transfer Liability can be transferred, (a) TWDC shall execute and deliver, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to execute and deliver, such bills of sale, deeds, lease assignments and assumptions, leases, subleases, stock powers, certificates of title, assignments of Contracts and other instruments of transfer, conveyance and assignment as and to the extent necessary to evidence the transfer, conveyance and assignment of TWDC’s right, title and interest in and to the Business Assets to Spinco and (b) Spinco shall execute and deliver to TWDC such assignments of Contracts and other instruments of assumption as and to the extent necessary to evidence the valid and effective assumption by Spinco of the Business Liabilities; provided that any instruments executed and delivered pursuant to this Section 2.02 shall be in form reasonably satisfactory to the Parties.

Section 2.03 Governmental Approvals and Consents.

(a) If the transfer, assignment or assumption of any Delayed Transfer Asset or any Delayed Transfer Liability intended to be transferred, assigned or assumed hereunder is not consummated prior to or at the Distribution Date, whether as a result of the provisions of Section 2.01(c) or for any other reason, then the TWDC Entity retaining such Delayed Transfer Asset or such Delayed Transfer Liability shall thereafter hold such Delayed Transfer Asset or such Delayed Transfer Liability for the use and benefit, insofar as reasonably practicable, of Spinco (at the expense of Spinco). In addition, such TWDC Entity retaining such Delayed Transfer Asset or such Delayed Transfer Liability shall take such other actions in order to place Spinco, insofar as reasonably practicable, in the same position as if such Delayed Transfer Asset or such Delayed Transfer Liability had been transferred or assumed as contemplated hereby and so that all the benefits and burdens relating to such Delayed Transfer Asset or such Delayed Transfer Liability, including possession, use, risk of loss, potential for gain, and dominion, control and command over such Asset, are to inure, from and after the Distribution Date, to the Spinco Entities. To the extent permitted by Law and to the extent otherwise permissible in light of any Legal Impediment or required Consent and/or Governmental Approval, Spinco shall be entitled to, and shall be responsible for, the management and the benefits and burdens of any Delayed Transfer Asset or any Delayed Transfer Liability not yet transferred to or assumed by it as a result of this Section 2.03(a) and the Parties agree to use their respective reasonable efforts to cooperate and coordinate with respect thereto.

(b) If and when the Legal Impediments and the Consents and/or Governmental Approvals (the failure to remove or the absence of which caused the deferral of the transfer or assumption of any Business Asset or Business Liability pursuant to Section 2.01(c)) are removed or obtained, as the case may be, the transfer and

assumption of the applicable Business Asset or Business Liability shall be promptly effected in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and/or the other applicable Transaction Agreements, without the payment of additional consideration.

Section 2.04 Novation of Liabilities.

(a)

(i) Spinco, at the written request of TWDC, and to the extent a Business Liability is not a Delayed Transfer Liability, shall use its reasonable efforts to (x) obtain, or to cause to be obtained, any release, Consent, substitution, approval or amendment required to novate all TWDC Entities from and assign all obligations under Contracts, Licenses and other obligations or Liabilities of any nature whatsoever that constitute Business Liabilities, or to obtain in writing the unconditional release of all TWDC Entities to such obligations, so that, in any such case, the Spinco Entities shall be solely responsible for such Business Liabilities and (y) terminate, or to cause Business Assets to be substituted in all respects for any Assets of the Retained Business (“TWDC Assets”) in respect of, any Encumbrances on TWDC Assets which are securing any Business Liabilities.

(ii) If Spinco is unable to obtain, or to cause to be obtained, any such required release, Consent, substitution, approval or amendment pursuant to Section 2.04(a)(i), the applicable TWDC Entity shall continue to be bound by such Contracts, Licenses and other obligations and, unless not permitted by Law or the terms thereof, Spinco shall, as agent or subcontractor for such TWDC Entity, pay, perform and discharge fully all the obligations or other Liabilities of such TWDC Entity thereunder from and after the Distribution Date. Spinco (x) shall indemnify and hold harmless each TWDC Indemnitee and hold it harmless against any Liabilities arising in connection therewith and (y) without the prior written consent of TWDC, from and after the Distribution Date, shall not, and shall not permit any Spinco Entity to, renew or extend the term of, increase its obligations under or transfer any Contract, License or other obligation for which a TWDC Entity is or may be liable, which any TWDC Asset is or may be encumbered, unless all obligations of the TWDC Entities and all Encumbrances on any TWDC Asset with respect thereto are thereupon released and terminated by documentation reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to TWDC.

(b)

(i) TWDC, at the written request of Spinco, shall use its reasonable efforts to (x) obtain, or to cause to be obtained, any release, Consent, substitution, approval or amendment required to novate all Spinco Entities from and assign all obligations under Contracts, Licenses and other obligations or Liabilities of any nature whatsoever that constitute Liabilities of any TWDC Entity, or to obtain in writing the unconditional release of all Spinco Entities to such obligations, so that, in any such case, the TWDC Entities shall be solely responsible for such TWDC Liabilities and (y) terminate, or to cause TWDC Assets to be substituted in all respects for any Business Assets in respect of, any Encumbrances on Business Assets which are securing any TWDC Liabilities.

(ii) If TWDC is unable to obtain, or to cause to be obtained, any such required release, Consent, approval, substitution or amendment pursuant to Section 2.04(b)(i), the applicable Spinco Entity shall continue to be bound by such Contracts, Licenses and other obligations and, unless not permitted by Law or the terms thereof, TWDC shall, as agent or subcontractor for such Spinco Entity, pay, perform and discharge fully all the obligations or other Liabilities of such Spinco Entity thereunder from and after the Distribution Date. TWDC (x) shall indemnify and hold harmless each Spinco Indemnitee and hold each of them harmless against any Liabilities arising in connection therewith and (y) without the prior written consent of Spinco, from and after the Distribution Date, shall not, and shall not permit any TWDC Entity to, renew or extend the term of, increase its obligations under or transfer any Contract, License or other obligation for which a Spinco Entity is or may be liable or for which any Business Asset is or may be encumbered unless all obligations of the Spinco Entities and all Encumbrances on any Business Asset with respect thereto are thereupon released and terminated by documentation reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to Spinco.

Section 2.05 Issuance of Stock. At or prior to the Distribution Date and subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Section 7.01 and subject to Section 2.3 of the Merger Agreement, the Parties shall take all steps necessary so that on the Distribution Date all of the shares of Spinco Common Stock outstanding and held by TWDC shall equal the Spinco Shares.

Section 2.06 Other Transaction Agreements. At or prior to the Distribution Date and subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Section 7.01, each of TWDC and Spinco shall execute and deliver the other Transaction Agreements that were not previously executed and delivered.

Section 2.07 Financing. Prior to and in connection with the Distribution, Spinco shall incur debt financing (the “Spinco Debt”) in an amount not to exceed (a) $1,400,000,000 plus (b) any Value Deficit minus (c) the RMT Debt Adjustment (such result, the “Maximum Spinco Debt”), on the terms set forth in the executed commitment letter and related term sheets (the “Spinco Debt Commitment Letter”) which are attached as Exhibit B hereto. Prior to the Distribution and as part of the Restructuring, and subject to Section 2.3 of the Merger Agreement, TWDC and its Affiliates (other than Spinco or a Spinco Entity) shall retain an amount in cash equal to the Spinco Debt. TWDC shall provide at least 11 trading days’ prior notice to Company of the date on which Spinco intends to incur the Spinco Debt (the “Spinco Funding Date”).

Section 2.08 Spinco Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws. Prior to the Distribution Date and prior to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by Section 2.01, (a) the Spinco Board of Directors will (i) approve the Spinco Certificate of

Incorporation and will cause the same to be filed with the Secretary of State of Delaware and (ii) adopt the Spinco Bylaws and (b) TWDC and Spinco will take such action as is necessary to cause to be approved the Spinco Certificate of Incorporation in accordance with the Delaware General Corporation Law.

Section 2.09 Resignations. TWDC will cause all of its employees and directors and all of the employees and directors of each other TWDC Entity to resign, effective not later than the Distribution Date, from all boards of directors or similar governing bodies of Spinco or any other Spinco Entity on which they serve, and from all positions as officers of Spinco or any other Spinco Entity in which they serve. Spinco will cause all of its employees and directors and all of the employees and directors of each of the Spinco Entity to resign, effective not later than the Distribution Date, from all boards of directors or similar governing bodies of TWDC or any other TWDC Entity on which they serve, and from all positions as officers of TWDC or any other TWDC Entity in which they serve.

Section 2.10 Post-Closing Adjustment to Net Working Capital.

(a) Within 90 days after the Closing Date, TWDC shall cause to be prepared and delivered to Spinco a statement setting forth the calculation of the Net Working Capital as of and including the Closing Date (“Statement of Net Working Capital”), including reasonable detail regarding the calculation thereof. The Statement of Net Working Capital shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP, consistently applied, utilizing the same methodology and adjustments as were utilized in preparing the Spinco Audited Financial Statements.

(b) Following the Closing Date, each of TWDC and Spinco shall give the other party and any representatives of such other party access at all reasonable times to the properties, books, records, working papers and personnel of the Business to the extent required to prepare and review the Statement of Net Working Capital. Spinco shall have 30 days following delivery of the Statement of Net Working Capital during which to notify TWDC of any dispute of any item contained in the Statement of Net Working Capital, which notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the nature and amount of any such dispute. If Spinco fails to notify TWDC of any such dispute within such 30 day period, the Statement of Net Working Capital delivered to Spinco shall be deemed to be final, conclusive and binding on the Parties (the “Final Statement of Net Working Capital”). In the event that Spinco shall so notify TWDC of a dispute, TWDC and Spinco shall cooperate in good faith to resolve such dispute as promptly as possible.

(c) If TWDC and Spinco do not resolve any such disputed item within 30 days of the delivery of such notice, such disputed item shall be resolved by the Independent Accounting Firm. In connection therewith, the Independent Accounting Firm shall address only items disputed by the parties and may not assign an amount to any disputed item greater than the greatest amount for such item that is claimed by a party or less than the smallest amount for such item that is claimed by a party. The Independent Accounting Firm shall make its determination with respect to any such disputed item as promptly as practicable and such determination shall be final, conclusive

and binding on the parties and shall be enforceable in any court of competent jurisdiction and may be entered as a judgment in any such court. Any expenses relating to the engagement of the Independent Accounting Firm shall be shared equally between TWDC and Spinco. The Statement of Net Working Capital, as modified by resolution of any disputed items between TWDC and Spinco or by the Independent Accounting Firm, shall be deemed the Final Statement of Net Working Capital.

(d) If the amount of the Net Working Capital, as set forth in the Final Statement of Net Working Capital, (i) exceeds the Target Net Working Capital, Spinco shall, at the direction of TWDC, pay to TWDC or any of its Subsidiaries designated to Spinco by TWDC the excess exclusively from the cash proceeds received following the Closing Date in respect of the accounts receivable of the Spinco Entities on the Final Statement of Net Working Capital as such receivables are collected or (ii) is less than the Target Net Working Capital, TWDC or any of its Subsidiaries designated to Spinco by TWDC shall pay to Spinco an amount equal to such deficit (such payment amount being referred to herein as the “Final Adjustment Amount”).

(e) Any payment to be made by TWDC or any of its Subsidiaries in respect of the Final Adjustment Amount pursuant to Section 2.10(d) hereof shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds within five Business Days after the date upon which the Statement of Net Working Capital becomes the Final Statement of Net Working Capital (either upon mutual agreement pursuant to Section 2.10(a) or by resolution of any dispute with respect to the Statement of Net Working Capital in accordance with Sections 2.10(b) and/or 2.10(c)) in an amount determined pursuant to Section 2.10(d) hereof, together with interest thereon from the Closing Date through the date such payment is made, at the prime lending rate as reported as of the date of such payment by The Wall Street Journal.

(f) Any payment to be made by Spinco in respect of the Final Adjustment Amount pursuant to Section 2.10(d) hereof shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds beginning five Business Days after the date upon which the Statement of Net Working Capital becomes the Final Statement of Net Working Capital (either upon mutual agreement pursuant to Section 2.10(a) or by resolution of any dispute with respect to the Statement of Net Working Capital in accordance with Sections 2.10(b) and/or 2.10(c)) in an aggregate amount determined pursuant to Section 2.10(d) hereof, together with interest thereon from the Closing Date through the date such payment is made, at the prime lending rate as reported as of the date of such payment by The Wall Street Journal. Spinco shall make the payments required by this Section 2.10(f) on a weekly basis from cash received in respect of accounts receivable. Spinco shall not utilize the proceeds of cash collected in respect of accounts receivable for any other purpose until the aggregate payment required by Section 2.10(f) has been made in full.

(g) The Parties agree to treat any net payments made pursuant to this Section 2.10 as either a capital contribution or a distribution, as the case may be, between TWDC or any of its Subsidiaries and Spinco or any of the Spinco Subsidiaries occurring immediately prior to the Distribution.

ARTICLE III

THE DISTRIBUTION

Section 3.01 Record Date and Distribution Date. Prior to the Distribution Date, TWDC Board of Directors, in accordance with applicable Law, shall establish the Record Date and the Distribution Date and any appropriate procedures in connection with the Distribution, including authorizing TWDC to effect the Distribution immediately prior to the Effective Time.

Section 3.02 The Distribution Agent. Prior to the Distribution Date, TWDC shall enter into an agreement with the Distribution Agent, which shall be on terms that are satisfactory to Spinco, providing for, among other things, the actions to be taken pursuant to Article II of the Merger Agreement.

Section 3.03 Delivery of Share Certificates to the Distribution Agent.

(a) Subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Section 7.01 (other than conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the time of the Restructuring, the Distribution or the Merger and shall in fact be satisfied at such time), on or prior to the Distribution Date, TWDC shall deliver to the Distribution Agent for the benefit of holders of record of TWDC Common Stock, certificates representing a number of shares of Spinco Common Stock equal to the Spinco Shares. TWDC shall cause the transfer agent for the shares of TWDC Common Stock to instruct the Distribution Agent to hold in trust (pending conversion of such shares of Spinco Common Stock into shares of Company Common Stock pursuant to the Merger Agreement) such shares of Spinco Common Stock for each such Spinco Stockholder, subject to Section 3.04:

(i) in the event the Distribution is effected by means of a spin-off, the product of (A) the aggregate number of shares of TWDC Common Stock held by such holder as of the Record Date, multiplied by (B) the Distribution Ratio; or

(ii) in the event that the Distribution is effected by means of a split-off, an exchange ratio, determined by TWDC in its sole discretion, providing for the number of shares of Spinco Common Stock to be offered per share of TWDC Common Stock in such split-off;

provided that, in no event shall the number of shares of Spinco Common Stock to be issued by TWDC in the Distribution by means of a spin-off, a split-off or a combination thereof exceed, in the aggregate, the Spinco Shares.

(b) Immediately after the Distribution and prior to the Effective Time, the shares of Spinco Common Stock shall not be transferable and the transfer agent for the Spinco Common Stock shall not transfer any shares of Spinco Common Stock. For the avoidance of doubt, TWDC shall not be considered a holder of record of TWDC Common Stock as of the Record Date with respect to any shares of TWDC Common Stock held in its treasury.

Section 3.04 Fractional Interests.

(a) No Fractional Shares. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no certificate or scrip representing fractional shares of Spinco Common Stock shall be delivered to the Distribution Agent for the benefit of holders of record of TWDC Common Stock on the Record Date (“TWDC Stockholders”). To the extent that any TWDC Stockholders would be entitled to receive a fractional share of Spinco Common Stock as a result of the Distribution, such fractional share interests will not entitle any such stockholder to vote or to any rights as a stockholder of Spinco. In lieu of any such fractional shares, each TWDC Stockholder who, but for the provisions of this Section 3.04, would be entitled to receive a fractional share interest of Spinco Common Stock pursuant to the Distribution shall, in lieu of such entitlement, receive cash, without any interest thereon, as hereinafter provided. TWDC shall instruct the Distribution Agent to determine the number of whole shares and fractional shares of Spinco Common Stock allocable to each TWDC Stockholder, to aggregate all such fractional shares into whole shares of Spinco Common Stock, to sell the shares of Company Common Stock obtained therefor pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement in the open market at the then-prevailing prices on behalf of each TWDC Stockholder who otherwise would be entitled to receive fractional share interests of Spinco Common Stock and to distribute to each such TWDC Stockholder his, her or its ratable share of the total proceeds of the sale of the resulting shares of Company Common Stock, after making appropriate deductions of the amounts required for U.S. federal income tax withholding purposes and after deducting any applicable transfer Taxes and the costs and expenses of such sale and distribution, including brokers fees and commissions.

(b) Unclaimed Stock or Cash. Any Spinco Common Stock or cash in lieu of fractional share interests of Spinco Common Stock made available to the Distribution Agent that remains undistributed 180 days after the Distribution Date shall be delivered to Spinco, Spinco shall hold such Spinco Common Stock for the account of such TWDC Stockholders and any such TWDC Stockholder shall look only to Spinco for such Spinco Common Stock and cash, if any, in lieu of fractional share interests of Spinco Common Stock subject in each case to applicable escheat or other abandoned property Laws.

Section 3.05 The Distribution. Subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Section 7.01, Spinco shall instruct the Distribution Agent at or prior to the Effective Time to take the actions contemplated to be taken by the Distribution Agent pursuant to the Merger Agreement.

Section 3.06 Timing of the Distribution. TWDC shall consummate the Separation as promptly as practicable after satisfaction (or waiver to the extent permissible) of all of the conditions to the Restructuring and the Distribution specified in Section 7.01 (other than conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the time of the Restructuring, Distribution or the Merger and shall in fact be satisfied at such time). The Restructuring shall occur on the Distribution Date prior to the Distribution, which shall occur at a time to be mutually agreed by the Parties on the Distribution Date.

TWDC and Spinco intend that any transfer of Information that would otherwise be within the attorney-client privilege shall not operate as a waiver of any potentially applicable privilege.

To facilitate the possible exchange of Information pursuant to this Article IV and other provisions of this Agreement after the Distribution Date, the Parties agree to use their reasonable efforts to retain all Information in their respective possession or control on the Distribution Date in accordance with their respective record retention policies. No Party will destroy, or permit any of its Subsidiaries to destroy, any Information that the other Party may have the right to obtain pursuant to this Agreement prior to the third anniversary of the date hereof without first using its reasonable efforts to notify the other Party of the proposed destruction and giving the other Party the opportunity to take possession of such Information prior to such destruction; provided, however, that (i) in the case of any Information relating to Taxes or to Environmental Claims, such period shall be extended to the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations (giving effect to any extensions thereof) and (ii) in the case of any Information relating to Taxes, such Party shall have the opportunity, at their cost and expense, to remove and retain all or any part of such Information upon the expiration of such statute of limitations.

Section 4.05 Limitation of Liability. No Party shall have any liability to any other Party in the event that any Information exchanged or provided pursuant to this Article IV that is an estimate or forecast, or that is based on an estimate or forecast, is found to be inaccurate.

The costs and expenses incurred in the provision of such witnesses and information shall be paid by the Party requesting the availability of such Persons.

Section 4.08 Employees and Employee Benefit Plans. As of the Distribution Date, the Business Employees shall cease to be employees of TWDC or its Subsidiaries (as applicable) and shall become employees of Spinco or its Subsidiaries. At the Effective Time, Spinco or its Subsidiaries shall be the sole employer of the Business Employees and shall not employ any individuals other than the Business Employees. Except for the Spinco Benefit Plans or any Business Material Contract with any Business Employee and any other agreement with on-air talent or employees providing services to the Business, (i) Spinco shall not establish, maintain or assume any Benefit Plan as of the Distribution Date, and (ii) Spinco shall not assume or be deemed to assume any liabilities (contingent or otherwise) or obligations related to or with respect to any Benefit Plan as of the Distribution Date.

Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement and in the other Transaction Agreements, Spinco shall, and shall cause each other Spinco Entity to indemnify, defend (or, where applicable, pay the defense costs for) and hold harmless TWDC Indemnitees from, against and in respect of losses, claims, liabilities, damages, costs and expenses relating to (a) the Business Liabilities (including any Delayed Transfer Liabilities) and (b) any and all Liabilities (including Third Party Claims) imposed on, sustained, incurred or suffered by any of TWDC Indemnitees that relate to, arise out of or result from the Business, the Business Assets or the failure of Spinco or any other Spinco Entity or any other Person to pay, perform or otherwise promptly discharge any Business Liabilities in accordance with their terms, whether occurring, arising, existing or asserted before, on or after the Distribution Date.

Section 5.03 Indemnification by TWDC. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement and in the other Transaction Agreements, TWDC shall, and shall cause each other TWDC Entity to indemnify, defend (or, where applicable, pay the defense costs for) and hold harmless the Spinco Indemnitees from, against and in respect of any losses, claims, liabilities, damages, costs and expenses relating to (a) TWDC Liabilities and (b) any and all Liabilities (including Third Party Claims) imposed on, sustained, incurred or suffered by any of the Spinco Indemnitees and that relate to, arise out of or result from the Retained Business, TWDC Assets or the failure of any other TWDC Entity or any other Person to pay, perform or otherwise promptly discharge any TWDC Liabilities in accordance with their terms, whether occurring, arising, existing or asserted before, on or after the Distribution Date.

Section 5.04 Indemnification Procedures.

(a) Notice of Claims. An Indemnitee shall give written notice (a “Notice of Claim”) to the Indemnifying Party within 20 Business Days after the Indemnitee has knowledge of any Third Party Claim which an Indemnitee has determined has given or could reasonably be expected to give rise to a right of indemnification under

this Agreement. No failure to give such Notice of Claim within the time period specified above shall affect the indemnification obligations of the Indemnifying Party hereunder, except to the extent the Indemnifying Party can demonstrate such failure materially prejudiced such Indemnifying Party’s ability to successfully defend the matter giving rise to the claim. The Notice of Claim shall state the nature of the claim, the amount of the liability, if known, and the method of computation thereof, all with reasonable particularity and containing a reference to the provisions of this Agreement in respect of which such right of indemnification is claimed or arises.

(b) Third Party Claims. The obligations and liabilities of an Indemnifying Party under this Article V with respect to Liabilities arising from claims of any third party that are subject to the indemnification provisions provided for in this Article V (“Third Party Claims”) shall be governed by and contingent upon the following additional terms and conditions. The Indemnitee at the time it gives a Notice of Claim to the Indemnifying Party of the Third Party Claim shall advise the Indemnifying Party that the Indemnifying Party shall be permitted, at its option, to assume and control the defense of such Third Party Claim at its expense and through counsel of its choice reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnitee if it gives written notice of its intention to do so to the Indemnitee within 20 days of its receipt of the Notice of Claim. In the event the Indemnifying Party exercises its right to undertake the defense against any such Third Party Claim as provided above, the Indemnitee shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in such defense and make available to the Indemnifying Party all witnesses and Information in its possession or under its control relating thereto as is reasonably required by the Indemnifying Party, and the Indemnitee may participate by its own counsel and at its own expense in defense of such Third Party Claim; provided, however, that if the defendants in any Action shall include both the Indemnitee and the Indemnifying Party and such Indemnitee shall have concluded in good faith that counsel selected by the Indemnifying Party has a conflict of interest because of the availability of different or additional defenses to such Indemnitee, such Indemnitee shall have the right to select separate counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnifying Party to participate in the defense of such Action on its behalf, at the expense of the Indemnifying Party; provided, further, that such Indemnifying Party shall not, in connection with any one such Action or separate but substantially similar or related Actions, be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys (in addition to any local counsel). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnitee, during the period the Indemnifying Party is determining whether to elect to assume the defense of a matter covered by this Section 5.04(b), may take such reasonable actions, at the Indemnifying Party’s expense, as it deems necessary to preserve any and all rights with respect to the matter, without such actions being construed as a waiver of the Indemnitee’s rights to defense and indemnification pursuant to this Agreement. In the event the Indemnitee is, directly or indirectly, conducting the defense against any such Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall cooperate with the Indemnitee in such defense and make available to it all such witnesses and Information in its possession or under its control relating thereto as is reasonably required by the Indemnitee and the Indemnifying Party may participate by its own counsel and at its own expense in the defense of such Third Party Claim.

(c) Settlement Procedures. Unless otherwise required by Law, in no event shall an Indemnitee admit any liability with respect to, or settle, compromise or discharge, any Third Party Claim without the Indemnifying Party’s prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld); provided, however, that the Indemnitee shall have the right to settle, compromise or discharge such Third Party Claim without the consent of the Indemnifying Party if the Indemnitee releases the Indemnifying Party from its indemnification obligation hereunder with respect to such Third Party Claim and such settlement, compromise or discharge would not otherwise adversely affect the Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnifying Party acknowledges in writing liability for a Third Party Claim (as between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnitee), the Indemnifying Party shall be permitted to enter into, and the Indemnitee shall agree to, any settlement, compromise or discharge of a Third Party Claim that the Indemnifying Party may recommend and that by its terms obligates the Indemnifying Party to pay the full amount of the liability in connection with such Third Party Claim and releases the Indemnitee completely in connection with such Third Party Claim and that would not otherwise adversely affect the Indemnitee; provided, further, that the Indemnifying Party shall not agree to any other settlement, compromise or discharge of a Third Party Claim not described above without the prior written consent of the Indemnitee (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld).

(d) Direct Claims. Any claim on account of a Liability that does not result from a Third Party Claim shall be asserted by written notice given by the Indemnitee to the related Indemnifying Party. Such Indemnifying Party shall have a period of 30 days after the receipt of such notice within which to respond thereto. If such Indemnifying Party does not respond within such 30-day period, such Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have refused to accept responsibility to make payment. If such Indemnifying Party does not respond within such 30-day period or rejects such claim in whole or in part, such Indemnitee shall be free to pursue such remedies as may be available to such party as contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Agreements.

Section 5.05 Indemnification Obligations Net of Insurance Proceeds and Other Amounts.

(a) The Parties agree to treat any indemnification payments pursuant to this Agreement as either a capital contribution or a distribution, as the case may be, between TWDC and Spinco occurring immediately prior to the Distribution.

(b) The amount of any loss shall be: (i) increased (retroactively or prospectively) to take into account any net Tax cost actually incurred by an Indemnitee arising from any payments received from the Indemnifying Party (grossed up for such increase); and (ii) reduced (retroactively or prospectively) to take into account any net Tax benefit actually realized by an Indemnitee arising from the incurrence or payment of any such loss. In computing the amount of such Tax cost or Tax benefit, an Indemnitee shall be deemed to recognize all other items of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit before recognizing any item arising from the receipt or accrual of any payment with respect to any such loss or the incurrence or payment of any such loss. If an Indemnitee

shall have received or accrued the payment required by this Agreement from an Indemnifying Party and shall subsequently actually realize any net Tax benefit arising from the incurrence or payment of such loss, then such Indemnitee promptly shall pay to such Indemnifying Party a sum equal to the amount of such net Tax benefit, up to the aggregate amount of any payments received from such Indemnifying Party pursuant to this Agreement in respect of such loss.

(c) To the extent that any Liability that is subject to indemnification under this Agreement is covered by insurance, the amount of any indemnity payment shall be net of the Net Proceeds of any insurance policy paid to the Indemnitee with respect to such Liability. For purposes of this Section 5.05, “Net Proceeds” shall mean the insurance proceeds actually received, less any actual, additional, or increased premium, deductibles, co-payments, other payment obligations (including attorneys’ fees and other costs of collection) or the present value of any future cost which is quantifiable with reasonable certainty, that relates to or arises from the making of the claim for indemnification.

(d) In no event shall an Indemnifying Party be liable for special, punitive, exemplary, incidental, consequential or indirect damages, or lost profits of an Indemnitee, whether based on contract, tort, strict liability, other Law or otherwise. An Indemnitee shall take all reasonable steps to mitigate a Liability upon becoming aware of any event, which could reasonably be expected to give rise to such Liabilities. Liabilities shall be determined after taking into account any indemnity, contribution or other similar payment received by the Indemnitee from any third party with respect thereto.

Section 5.06 Additional Matters.

(a) No Relief of Insurer Obligations. An insurer who would otherwise be obligated to defend or make payment in response to any claim shall not be relieved of the responsibility with respect thereto or, solely by virtue of the indemnification provisions hereof, have any subrogation rights with respect thereto, it being expressly understood and agreed that no insurer or any other third party shall be entitled to a “windfall” (i.e., a benefit it would not be entitled to receive in the absence of the indemnification provisions hereof) by virtue of the indemnification provisions hereof.

(b) Subrogation. In the event of payment by or on behalf of any Indemnifying Party to any Indemnitee in connection with any Third Party Claim, such Indemnifying Party shall be subrogated to and shall stand in the place of such Indemnitee as to any events or circumstances in respect of which such Indemnitee may have any right, defense or claim relating to such Third Party Claim. Such Indemnitee shall cooperate with such Indemnifying Party in a reasonable manner, and at the cost and expense of such Indemnifying Party, in prosecuting any subrogated right, defense or claim.

(c) Not Applicable to Taxes. The provisions of this Article V shall not apply to Taxes or any related matters (which are covered by the Tax Sharing Agreement).

(d) Joint Defense and Cooperation. With respect to any Third Party Claim in which both TWDC and Spinco are, or reasonably may be expected to be, named as parties, or that otherwise implicates both TWDC and Spinco in a material fashion, the Parties shall reasonably cooperate with respect to such Third Party Claim and if the Parties agree, maintain a joint defense in a manner that will preserve applicable privileges.

ARTICLE VI

INSURANCE

Section 6.01 Insurance Coverage; Cooperation. All insurance policies of TWDC shall constitute TWDC Assets and shall be retained by TWDC and the other TWDC Entities, together with all rights, benefits and privileges thereunder (including the right to receive any and all return premiums with respect thereto), except that Spinco will have the rights in respect of Insurance Policies to the extent described in Section 6.02. Each of TWDC and Spinco shall use reasonable efforts to share such information as is reasonably necessary in order to permit the other to manage and conduct its insurance matters in an orderly fashion. Each of TWDC and Spinco, at the request of the other, shall use reasonable efforts to cooperate with and assist the other in recoveries for claims made under any insurance policy for the benefit of any Spinco Entity or TWDC Entity, as applicable, and neither TWDC nor Spinco, nor any Spinco Entity or TWDC Entity, as applicable, shall take any action which would be reasonably likely to jeopardize or otherwise interfere with the ability of any Spinco Entity or TWDC Entity, as applicable, to collect any proceeds payable pursuant to any insurance policy. Nothing in this Section 6.01 shall (x) preclude any Spinco Entity or TWDC Entity, as applicable from presenting any claim or from exhausting any policy limit, (y) require any Spinco Entity or TWDC Entity, as applicable, to pay any premium or other amount or to incur any Liability or (z) require any Spinco Entity or TWDC Entity, as applicable, to renew, extend or continue any policy in force.

Section 6.02 Rights Under Insurance Policies. Except as otherwise specified in this Article VI or any other Transaction Agreement, the Spinco Entities shall have no rights with respect to any insurance policies of TWDC, except that Spinco will have the right to (x) assert claims and to resolve existing and pending claims under Insurance Policies for any loss, liability or damage arising out of insured incidents to the extent relating to the Business occurring from the date coverage thereunder first commenced until the Distribution Date and (y) acquire all rights, privileges and proceeds of such Insurance Policies relating to the claims specified in clause (x); provided that, (i) all of TWDC’s and each TWDC Entity’s reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses, if any, incurred in connection with the foregoing shall be promptly paid by Spinco and (ii) TWDC and the TWDC Entities may, at any time, without liability or obligation to any Spinco Entity, amend, commute, terminate, buy-out, extinguish liability under or otherwise modify any Insurance Policy (and such Insurance Policy shall be subject to any such amendments, commutations, terminations, buy-outs, extinguishments and modifications). No TWDC Entity shall bear any Liability for the failure of an insurer to pay any claim under any Insurance Policy. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary

herein, Spinco may at any time, and from time to time, inform TWDC by written notice that it desires to terminate its rights to assert claims under any or all Insurance Policies, in which case Spinco’s rights to assert claims relating to Business Liabilities under such Insurance Policy or Policies shall terminate immediately. In the case of any amendments, commutations, terminations, buy-outs, extinguishments and modifications of an Insurance Policy, TWDC shall provide reasonable advance notice thereof to Spinco and shall reasonably cooperate with Spinco to assist Spinco in obtaining insurance policies under which Spinco is an insured party.

Section 6.03 Spinco Insurance Coverage After the Distribution Date. From and after the Distribution Date, Spinco, and Spinco alone, shall be responsible for obtaining and maintaining insurance programs for its risk of loss and such insurance arrangements shall be separate and apart from TWDC’s insurance programs.

Section 6.04 Responsibilities for Self-Insured Obligations and Other Obligations.

(a) Spinco will reimburse TWDC for Spinco’s pro rata share (based on the aggregate amount of proceeds received in respect of claims relating to Business Liabilities under such Insurance Policy by the Spinco Entities) of all amounts necessary to exhaust or otherwise satisfy all applicable self-insured retentions and Spinco’s pro rata share of all amounts for fronted policies, overages, deductibles and retrospective or prospective premium adjustments and similar amounts not covered by Insurance Policies.

(b) Each of TWDC and Spinco does hereby, for itself and each other TWDC Entity and Spinco Entity, agree that all duties and obligations under any Insurance Policy, including the fulfillment of any conditions and the payment of any deductibles, retentions, co-insurance payment or retrospective premiums, that correspond in any way with or may be necessary to perfect, preserve or maintain an insured’s right to obtain benefits under that Insurance Policy, will be performed by the insured that is seeking the benefits under that Insurance Policy, subject to the indemnification provisions herein.

Section 6.05 Claims Administration. (i) TWDC or its designee shall be responsible for the claims administration with respect to claims of any TWDC Entity under Insurance Policies; and (ii) Spinco or its designee shall be responsible for the claims administration with respect to claims of Spinco under Insurance Policies.

Section 6.06 Procedures Regarding Insufficient Limits of Liability. In the event that there are insufficient limits of liability available under the Insurance Policies in effect prior to the Distribution Date to cover the Liabilities of the TWDC Entities and/or the Spinco Entities that would otherwise be covered by such Insurance Policies, then no Spinco Entity shall be entitled to recovery for any claims under such Insurance Policies until the claims of all TWDC Entities have been satisfied thereunder. If any Spinco Entity has received proceeds under any such Insurance Policies, Spinco shall reimburse TWDC all amounts to which any TWDC Entity would have been entitled had its claim under such Insurance Policies arisen prior to any recovery thereunder by any Spinco Entity.

Section 6.07 Cooperation. TWDC and Spinco will use their reasonable efforts to cooperate with each other and execute any additional documents which are reasonably necessary to effectuate the provisions of this Article VI.

Section 6.08 No Assignment or Waiver. This Agreement shall not be considered as an attempted assignment of any rights or interest in violation of any policy of insurance or as a contract of insurance and shall not be construed to waive any right or remedy of any TWDC Entity in respect of any Insurance Policy or any other Contract or policy of insurance.

Section 6.09 No Liability. Spinco does hereby, for itself and as agent for each Spinco Entity, agree that no TWDC Entity or any TWDC Indemnitee shall have any Liability whatsoever as a result of the insurance policies and practices of TWDC and its Subsidiaries as in effect at any time prior to the Distribution Date, including as a result of the level or scope of any such insurance, the creditworthiness of any insurance carrier, the terms and conditions of any policy or the adequacy or timeliness of any notice to any insurance carrier with respect to any claim or potential claim or otherwise.

Section 6.10 No Restrictions. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to restrict any Spinco Entity from acquiring at its own expense any other insurance policy in respect of any Liabilities or covering any period.

Section 6.11 Further Agreements. The Parties acknowledge that they intend to allocate financial obligations without violating any Laws regarding insurance, self-insurance or other financial responsibility. If it is determined that any action undertaken pursuant to this Agreement or any other Transaction Agreement is violative of any insurance, self-insurance or related financial responsibility Law, the Parties agree to work together to do whatever is necessary to comply with such Law while trying to accomplish, to the greatest possible extent, the allocation of financial obligations as intended in this Agreement and any other Transaction Agreement.

(c) On or prior to the Distribution Date, TWDC and Spinco in their respective capacities as direct and indirect stockholders of their respective Subsidiaries, shall each ratify any actions that are reasonably necessary or desirable to be taken by TWDC and Spinco or any other Subsidiary of TWDC, as the case may be, to effectuate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Section 10.05 Counterparts.

Section 10.06 Assignment. Except as set forth in any other Transaction Agreement and except upon a merger of Citadel Broadcasting Corporation, neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations under this Agreement will be assigned, in whole or in part, by operation of law or otherwise, by either of the Parties hereto without the prior written consent of the other Party, except that either Party may assign any or all of its rights, interests or obligations under this Agreement to any one or more of its direct or indirect wholly-owned Subsidiaries or Spinco Subsidiaries, as applicable; provided that no such assignment will relieve the assigning Party from any of its obligations under this Agreement. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by TWDC and Spinco and their respective successors and assigns.

Section 10.07 Enforcement. The Parties agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the Parties will be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement in any court of the United States located in the State of Delaware or in Delaware state court, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity. In addition, each of the Parties (a) consents to submit itself to the personal jurisdiction of any federal court located in the State of Delaware or any Delaware state court in the event any dispute arises out of this Agreement or any of the Transactions, (b) agrees that it will not attempt to deny or defeat such personal jurisdiction by motion or other request for leave from any such court and (c) agrees that it will not bring any action relating to this Agreement or any of the Transactions in any court other than a federal or state court sitting in the State of Delaware.

Section 10.08 Severability. Any term or provision of this Agreement which is invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction will, as to that jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability without rendering invalid or unenforceable the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement in any other jurisdiction. If any provision of this Agreement is so broad as to be unenforceable, such provision will be interpreted to be only so broad as is enforceable.

Section 10.09 Headings. Headings of the Articles and Sections of this Agreement and the Transaction Agreements are for convenience of the Parties only and will be given no substantive or interpretive effect whatsoever.

Section 10.10 Attorneys’ Fees. If any Action at law or equity, including an Action for declaratory relief, is brought to enforce or interpret any provision of this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses from the other party, which fees and expenses shall be in addition to any other relief which may be awarded.

Section 10.13 Taxes. In the case of any inconsistency with respect to matters relating to Taxes between this Agreement and the Tax Sharing Agreement, the Tax Sharing Agreement shall govern such matter.

Section 10.14 Interpretation. Words in the singular shall be held to include the plural and vice versa and words of one gender shall be held to include the other genders as the context requires. The terms “hereof,” “herein,” and “herewith” and words of similar import herein (or in any Transaction Agreement) shall, unless otherwise stated, be construed to refer to this Agreement (or the applicable other Transaction Agreement) taken as a whole (including all of the schedules and exhibits hereto and thereto) and not to any particular provision of this Agreement (or such other Transaction Agreement). Article, Section, Exhibit, Schedule and Appendix references are to the Articles, Sections, Exhibits, Schedules and Appendices to this Agreement (or the applicable other Transaction Agreement) unless otherwise specified. The word “including” and words of similar import when used in this Agreement (or the applicable other Transaction Agreement) means “including, without limitation,” unless the context otherwise requires or unless otherwise specified. Unless expressly stated to the contrary in this Agreement or in any other Transaction Agreement, all references to “the date hereof,” “the date of this Agreement,” “hereby” and “hereupon” and words of similar import shall all be references to February 6, 2006 (or the date of which the relevant Transaction Agreement is first entered into, as the case may be) regardless of any amendment or restatement hereof (or thereof). The Parties hereto have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement, and in the event an ambiguity or

question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the Parties hereto, and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any Party hereto by virtue of the authorship of any provisions of this Agreement.
