agreements hereinafter set forth and other good and valuable consideration, the
receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto
covenant and agree as follows:
1. Purchase of Subordinated Note.
-----------------------------
1.1 Authorization of Subordinated Note. Pursuant to the terms
----------------------------------
and conditions contained herein, the Company has authorized the issuance to
Univision of a Non-Negotiable Subordinated Note in the form of Exhibit A
attached hereto (the "Subordinated Note").
1.2 Purchase and Sale.
-----------------
(a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Company
hereby issues and sells to Univision and Univision hereby purchases from the
Company, the Subordinated Note for the Purchase Price described in Section
1.2(b).
(b) The aggregate purchase price of the Subordinated Note
shall equal $7,000,000 and the delivery to the Company for cancellation of the
Prior Note (the "Purchase Price").
2. Representations and Warranties. The Subordinated Note has
------------------------------
been authorized by all necessary actions on the part of the Company, and is the
valid and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against the Company in
accordance with its terms. This Agreement has been authorized by the Company and
each of the Borrowers and is a valid and binding obligation of the Company, each
of the Borrowers and each of the Managing Members enforceable against such party
in accordance with its terms. As inducement for Univision entering into this
agreement and purchasing the Subordinated Note each of the Company and the
Borrowers hereby restates and adopt in favor of and for the benefit of Univision
the representations and warranties set forth in Section 3 of the Credit
Agreement among Union Bank of California, as agent for the Banks who are parties
thereto, the Company and the Borrowers dated as of the date hereof, a copy of
which is attached hereto as Exhibit B (the "Credit Agreement") and agrees that,
until the closing of Reorganization (as hereinafter defined) to not engage in
any of the acts or activities described in Section 3 of the Subordinated Note
without the consent of Univision in accordance with the terms thereof.
3. Univision Option/Anti-Dilution Protection.
-----------------------------------------
For the purposes of this Section 3 capitalized terms not defined
herein shall have the meaning given to such terms in the Amended and Restated
Operating Agreement of the Company, a copy of which is attached hereto as
Exhibit C (the "Operating Agreement").
3.1 Univision Option. Univision is hereby granted a right to
----------------
acquire an equity interest in the Company (as calculated in Section 3.2 below)
through the acquisition of Class A Non-Managing Membership Units for a total
exercise price of Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000) reduced but not below $1, by
the payment to Univision of any amounts distributed pursuant to Section 3(a)(iv)
of the Subordinated Note as a Prepayment Amount (as defined in the Subordinated
Note) (the "Univision Option"). The Univision Option is exercisable only in its
entirety. In light of the unique relationship between Univision and the Company
and the special nature of the Univision Option, the Univision Option is not
assignable to any third party without
2
the consent of the Company, which the Company may withhold in its sole
unqualified discretion. The Univision Option is exercisable for a period of
twenty-five (25) years from the date hereof (i) at the sole option of Univision
or (ii) automatically and mandatorily at any time upon a change of FCC's rules
that would permit such conversion without attribution to Univision.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Univision shall not exercise
any of its rights under this provision should such action constitute or result
in a change of control of a broadcast station licensee, if such change of
control would require, under then existing law, the prior approval of the
Federal Communications Commission. In such event, Univision shall only exercise
its rights upon the prior consent of the Federal Communications Commission to a
request filed with it for transfer of control of the broadcast station licensee.
The Option is exercisable only in its entirety, unless the then applicable FCC
attribution rules and regulations permit Univision to acquire a lesser percent.
Univision shall be permitted to credit the principal sum due under the
Subordinated Note to pay the Purchase Price upon Univision's exercise of the
Univision Option. This Univision Option shall expire upon the exercise of the
Borrower Option, as defined below.
3.2 Option Percentage. Upon exercise, the Univision Option shall
-----------------
entitle Univision to acquire 25.55% of the sum of (i) the Class A and Class C
Non-Managing Membership Units currently issued plus (ii) the Class A and Class C
Non-Managing Membership Units to be issued upon the Reorganization (as defined
below) plus (iii) the Class A Non-Managing Membership Units to be issued to
Univision on exercise of the Univision Option (the "Option Percentage"),
including those to be issued to Valley Channel in accordance with the Operating
Agreement. Univision's Option Percentage shall also proportionately increase
upon purchase by the Company of any Class A Non-Managing Membership Units
outstanding on the Effective Date or the non-issuance of any Class A Non-
Managing Membership Units contemplated to be issued in the Reorganization which
are not so issued. There shall be no adjustment related to the option to
acquire 11,965 units held by Xx. Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxx.
3.3 Anti-Dilution Protection. Univision shall have a right of first
------------------------
refusal to purchase any new issuance of Membership Units in the Company pursuant
to Section 7(c)(iii) of the Operating Agreement in order to maintain its
percentage interest in profits, losses and rights; except for the issuance of
non-voting Class D Membership Units to certain managers and employees
representing up to a five percent (5%) interest in profits and losses of the
Company on a fully diluted basis. Any such additional issuances of equity shall
be evidenced by Class B Membership Units pursuant to Section 7(c)(iii) of the
Operating Agreement. In connection with any such additional issuance, so long
as the Univision Option is outstanding, Univision shall have the right to make
an additional long term loan to the Company (the "Additional Loan") in a
Proportionate Amount (as hereinafter defined), which Additional Loan shall be on
the same terms and conditions as the Subordinated Note and shall be accompanied
by additional options to acquire Class B Membership Units (the "Additional
Option"), in an amount sufficient to allow Univision to maintain an ownership
interest in the Company equal to the then Option Percentage. For purposes of
this Section 3.3, "Proportionate Amount" means a principal amount determined by
multiplying (i) the amount to be raised by the Company by (ii) Univision's then
existing Option Percentage. To the extent that Univision exercises its right to
make an Additional Loan, the amount to be raised from the sale of Class B
Membership Units shall be decreased by the amount of such Additional Loan. Such
rights of first refusal and right to make Additional Loans shall terminate upon
a public offering of the Company.
3
3.4 Manner of Exercising Option. Upon the exercise of the Univision
---------------------------
Option pursuant to Section 3.1 above, Univision shall take the following
actions:
(a) Execute and deliver to the Company an agreement agreeing to
be bound by all of the terms and provisions of the then Operating Agreement of
the Company in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company's attorneys;
(b) Furnish to the Company appropriate documentation that the
person or persons exercising the Univision Option on behalf of Univision have
the authority to exercise the Univision Option; and
(c) Deliver the original of the Note marked "cancelled" and "paid
in full."
As soon thereafter as practical, the Company shall mail or deliver to Univision,
if the Company's membership units are then certificated, a certificate
representing the Membership Units so purchased by Univision.
4. Borrower Option.
---------------
4.1 Borrower Option. As inducement for Univision entering into this
---------------
agreement and purchasing the Subordinated Note each of the Managing Members
hereby grant to Univision the right to purchase the same percentage of the
Capital Stock of each of the Borrowers as Univision may from time to time be
entitled to purchase from the Company pursuant to Section 3 above (the "Borrower
Option"). The Borrower Option is exercisable only in its entirety. In light of
the unique relationship between Univision and the Company and the special nature
of the Borrower Option, the Borrower Option is not assignable to any third party
without the consent of the Company, which the Company may withhold in its sole
unqualified discretion. The Borrower Option is exercisable for a period of
twenty-five (25) years from the Effective Date at the sole option of Univision
and shall expire upon the earlier to occur of (i) the consummation of the
transactions contemplated by the Amended and Restated Formation Agreement among
the Company and the Borrowers dated as of December 30, 1996 (the
"Reorganization") or (ii) the exercise of the Univision Option contained in
Section 3 hereof.
4.2 Manner of Exercising Borrower Option. Upon the exercise of the
------------------------------------
Borrower Option pursuant to Section 4.1 above, Univision shall take the
following actions:
(a) Furnish to the Company appropriate documentation that the
person or persons exercising the Borrower Option on behalf of Univision have the
authority to exercise the Borrower Option; and
(b) Deliver the original of the Subordinated Note.
4
As soon thereafter as practical, the Managing Members shall deliver to Univision
securities representing the interests so purchased by Univision.
Notwithstanding the generality of the foregoing, Univision agrees to
cooperate with the Managing Members and the Borrowers in replacing the Borrower
Option with options directly from the Borrowers for newly issued securities of
Borrowers which would give Univision the same percentage interest in each of the
Borrowers after giving effect to the exercise of such options as Univision would
have if it exercised its option from the Borrower Option.
5. Miscellaneous.
-------------
5.1 Further Assurances. Each party agrees to cooperate fully with
------------------
the other parties and to execute such further instruments, documents and
agreements and to give such further written assurances, as may be reasonably
requested by any other party to evidence and reflect the transactions described

purposes of this Agreement.
5.2 Rights Cumulative. Each and all of the various rights, powers
-----------------
and remedies of the parties hereto shall be considered to be cumulative with and
in addition to any other rights, powers and remedies which such parties may have
at law or in equity in the event of the breach of any of the terms of this
Agreement. The exercise or partial exercise of any right, power or remedy shall
neither constitute the exclusive election thereof nor the waiver of any other
right, power or remedy available to such party.

-------
Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been given for all
purposes (i) upon personal delivery, (ii) one day after being sent, when sent by

such notices or demands are thereafter to be address or delivered.

--------
they are not to serve as a basis for interpretation or construction of this
Agreement, nor as evidence of the intention of the parties hereto.
5.5 Severability. If any clause, provision or section of this
------------
Agreement is ruled invalid by any court of competent jurisdiction, the
invalidity of such clause, provision or section shall not affect any of the
remaining provisions hereof. The parties further agree to replace such void or
unenforceable provisions of this Agreement with valid and enforceable provisions
which will achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other
purposes of the void or unenforceable provisions.
5
5.6 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed, interpreted,
-------------
construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of California.

contemplated hereby and supersedes any prior proposal, agreement or
communication relating to the subject matter of this Agreement, and may not be
modified except by writing signed by all of the parties hereto.

----------------
require performance by the other shall in no way affect their right thereafter
to enforce the same, nor shall the waiver by either party hereto of any breach
of any provision(s) hereof be taken or held to be a waiver of any succeeding
breach or as a waiver of the provision itself.

----------------------
provisions hereof shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the
successors, assigns, heirs, executors and administrators of the parties hereto.

Company's Amended and Restated Operating Agreement dated as of December 30, 1996
(the "Operating Agreement"). Capitalized terms not defined herein shall have the
meaning given to such terms in the Operating Agreement.
1. Subordination.
-------------
(a) Subordination to Senior Indebtedness. The indebtedness evidenced
------------------------------------
by this Note, and the payment of the principal hereof and any interest hereon,
is wholly subordinated,
junior and subject in right of payment, to the extent and in the manner
hereinafter provided, to the prior payment of all Senior Indebtedness (as
hereinafter defined) of the Company now outstanding or hereafter incurred.
"Senior Indebtedness" means the principal of and interest on, together with all
other payment obligations under (i) all indebtedness of the Company to banks,
trust companies, insurance companies and other financial institutions, including
commercial paper and accounts receivable sold or assigned by the Company to such
institutions; (ii) obligations of the Company as lessee under leases of real or
personal property; (iii) any indebtedness of the Company issued or incurred in
connection with the acquisition of an equity interest in a business or with the
assets of a business; (iv) shareholder and/or member loans, junk bond debt,
trade debt incurred in the ordinary course of business and other unsecured debt;
(v) deferrals, renewals, extensions and refunding of and modifications to any
such indebtedness or obligations described in (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) above;
and (vi) any other indebtedness of the Company which the Company and Univision
may hereafter from time to time expressly and specifically agree in writing.
(b) Payment Upon Dissolution, Etc. Upon payment or distribution of
------------------------------
assets of the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or
securities, to creditors upon any dissolution or winding-up or total or partial
liquidation or reorganization of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary,
in bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or other proceedings, all principal and
interest, together with all other payment obligations under, due upon any Senior
Indebtedness shall first be paid in full, or payment thereof in full duly
provided for, before Univision shall be entitled to receive or, if received, to
retain any payment or distribution on account of this Note; and upon any such
dissolution or winding-up or liquidation or reorganization, any payment or
distribution of assets of the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash,
property or securities, to which Univision would be entitled except for the
provisions of this Section 1 shall be paid by the Company or by any receiver,
trustee in bankruptcy, liquidating trustee, agent or other person making such
payment or distribution, or by Univision if it shall have received such payment
or distribution, directly to the holders of the Senior Indebtedness (pro rata to
--- ----
each such holder on the basis of the respective amounts of such Senior
Indebtedness held by such holder) or their representatives to the extent
necessary to pay all such Senior Indebtedness in full after giving effect to any
concurrent payment or distribution to or for the holders of such Senior
Indebtedness, before any payment or distribution is made to Univision. In the
event of any such dissolution, winding-up, liquidation or reorganization of the
Company, Univision shall be entitled to be paid one hundred percent (100%) of
the outstanding principal amount hereof and accrued interest hereon before any
distribution of assets shall be made among the holders of any class of
Membership Units of the Company in their capacities as holders of such
Membership Units.
For purposes of this paragraph (b), the words "assets" and "cash,
property or securities" shall not be deemed to include Membership Units of the
Company as reorganized or readjusted, or Membership Units of the Company or any
other person provided for by a plan of reorganization or readjustment, the
payment of which is subordinated at least to the extent provided in this Section
1 with respect to this Note to the payment of all Senior Indebtedness which may
at the time be outstanding; provided that (i) the Senior Indebtedness is assumed
--------
by the
-2-
new person, if any, resulting from any such reorganization or readjustment, and
(ii) the rights of the holders of Senior Indebtedness are not, without the
consent of such holders, altered by such reorganization or readjustment.
(c) Subrogation. Subject to payment in full of all Senior
-----------
Indebtedness, Univision shall be subrogated to the rights of the holders of
Senior Indebtedness to receive payments or distributions of the assets of the
Company made on such Senior Indebtedness until all principal and interest on
this Note shall be paid in full; and, for purposes of such subrogation, no
payments or distributions to the holders of Senior Indebtedness of any cash,
property or securities to which Univision would be entitled except for the
subordination provisions of this Section 1 shall, as between Univision and the
Company and/or its creditors other than the holders of the Senior Indebtedness,
be deemed to be a payment on account of the Senior Indebtedness.
(d) Rights of Holder Unimpaired. The provisions of this Section 1 are
---------------------------
and are intended solely for the purposes of defining the relative rights of
Univision and the holders of Senior Indebtedness; and nothing in this Section 1
shall impair, as between the Company and Univision, the obligation of the
Company, which is unconditional and absolute, to pay to Univision the principal
hereof and interest hereon, in accordance with the terms of this Note; nor shall
anything herein prevent Univision from exercising all remedies otherwise
permitted by applicable law or hereunder upon default, subject to the rights set
forth above of holders of Senior Indebtedness to receive cash, property or
securities otherwise payable or deliverable to Univision.
(e) Holders of Senior Indebtedness. These provisions regarding
------------------------------
subordination will constitute a continuing offer to all persons who, in reliance
upon such provisions, become holders of, or continue to hold, Senior
Indebtedness; such provisions are made for the benefit of the holders of Senior
Indebtedness, and such holders are hereby made obligees under such provisions to
the same extent as if they were named herein, and they or any of them may
proceed to enforce such subordination. Univision shall execute and deliver to
any holder of Senior Indebtedness (i) any such instrument as such holder of
Senior Indebtedness may request in order to confirm the subordination of this
Note to such Senior Indebtedness upon the terms set forth in this Note, and (ii)
any powers of attorney specifically confirming the rights of holders of Senior
Indebtedness to enforce such subordination and all such proofs of claim,
assignments of claim and other instruments as may be requested by the holders of
Senior Indebtedness or their representatives to enforce all claims upon or in
respect of this Note.
(f) Payments on Subordinated Note. Subject to the terms of this
-----------------------------
Section 1, the Company may make payments of the principal of, and any interest
on, this Note, if at the time of payment, and immediately after giving effect
thereto, (i) there exists no default in any payment with respect to any Senior
Indebtedness and (ii) there shall not have occurred an event of default (other
than a default in the payment of amounts due thereon) with respect to any Senior
Indebtedness, as defined in the instrument under which the same is outstanding,
permitting the holders thereof to accelerate the maturity thereof, other than an
event of default which shall have been cured or waived or shall have ceased to
exist. All payments of principal and interest with
-3-
respect to this Note and all other Subordinated Notes of the Company due at the
time of said payment shall be made ratably in proportion to the aggregate amount
outstanding with respect to each of the Notes.
2. Prepayment. The principal and interest indebtedness represented by
----------
this Note may be prepaid to Univision, in whole or in part, without penalty, any
time upon thirty (30) days' prior written notice from Company to Univision.
3. Univision Rights.

equal to or greater than the greater of (a) Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) or
(b) ten percent (10%) of the Company's "Net Asset Value." Net Asset Value shall
be defined to mean the most recent four (4) quarters of EBITDA (excluding

Agreement between Univision and the Company dated December 30, 1996, times eight

(3) Any transaction involving the direct or indirect transfer or
sale of any FCC License, (including the sale of Membership Units) in which case,
except as provided below, Univision's consent may be withheld in its sole
discretion; provided, however, in connection with a transfer of Membership
Interests subject to the provisions of Section 26(d) of the Operating Agreement,
the Managing Members may submit to Univision a list of potential transferees
prior to the right of first offer pursuant to said Section 26(d) of the
Operating Agreement and such potential transferees may be approved by Univision,
which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. If such transferee is
approved in such a manner, an indirect transfer of an FCC License as a result of
such transfer of Membership Interests to such transferee that complies with
Section 26(d) of the Operating Agreement, shall be deemed approved hereunder;
-4-

approval of other potential transferees under Section 26(d) of the Operating
Agreement.

income tax purposes). The Company shall be permitted to make additional
distributions in amounts in excess of reasonable working capital and reserve
requirements if concurrent with such distribution the Company makes a prepayment
of principal on this Subordinated Note in an amount equal to the "Prepayment
Amount" (as defined below). The "Prepayment Amount" shall be determined as
follows:
A = B (C + A)
A equals the amount to be prepaid on this Subordinated Note;
B equals Univision's then existing Option Percentage (as defined
in Exhibit "D" to the Operating Agreement);
C equals the total distributions proposed to be made to the
Members of the Company;
(5) Transactions with any Member in excess of $50,000 or not at
arm's length (except for existing management contracts, employment agreements,
and loans existing at the date hereof and scheduled in the Credit Facility

for various banks).
(6) Amendments to the Operating Agreement that would adversely
affect the Class A Non-Managing Membership Units or Univision with respect to
its rights under the Operating Agreement.
(7) The merger or consolidation of the Company with a third party

all purposes, be the same as Class C Membership Units in all respects except

approved by the Managing Members, which shall provide for a nominal exercise
price per Class D Unit and shall only be exercisable in connection with an
initial public offering of the Company's securities, the sale of substantially
all of the Company's assets or substantially all of the Members' Percentage
Interests in the Company or within thirty (30) days following an optionee's
termination of employment with the Company or on such other terms and conditions
determined by the Executive Committee.
(c) Future Capital Requirements.
---------------------------
(i) Third-Party Loans. The Members intend and agree that the
-----------------
Company's additional cash requirements for operations will be satisfied via
loans from third-party lenders on commercially reasonable terms and conditions.
In addition, the Members acknowledge and agree that in connection with potential
Acquisitions, the Company may borrow from third-party lenders and/or incur
purchase money indebtedness in connection with such Acquisitions. Prior to
incurring any third-party indebtedness, the terms and conditions of such
indebtedness must be approved by the Executive Committee. The Executive
Committee shall have the right to hypothecate Company Assets in connection with
any third party loan approved by the Executive Committee. In the event that the
Executive Committee determines in good faith that the Company requires
additional funds, it shall provide written notice to the other Members of the
total amount of funds required and the purpose(s) therefor. If no third-party
loans are funded within sixty (60) days after such notice has been given, or if
the net proceeds of any such loans is less than the amount of funds required by
the Company, the Executive Committee may, but shall not be required to, request
that the Members make discretionary loans to the Company in the aggregate amount
necessary to cover the shortfall, which loans shall be made within thirty (30)
days after a second written notice from the Executive Committee specifying the
revised amount of funds required (after taking into account any third-party loan
proceeds), each Member's share thereof and the anticipated use or uses of such
funds. All such loans shall be voluntary and shall be made in accordance with
the terms set forth in Section 9 hereof.
(ii) No Member Guaranties. Notwithstanding anything in this
--------------------
Agreement to the contrary and except pursuant to the terms of the Credit
Facility, no Member nor any Affiliate of such Member shall be obligated to
guarantee any Company indebtedness.
-6-
(ii) Secondary Funding Sources. In the event the Company
-------------------------
requires additional funds for any reason, which funds have not been obtained (or
cannot be obtained) pursuant to the above provisions, the Executive Committee
may, but shall not be obligated to, obtain the required funds from the issuance
of a separate class of Non-Managing Member interests ("Class B Interests").
Prior to issuing any Class B Interests to outside persons, the Executive
Committee shall first give written notice of such proposed equity offering to
all the existing Members of the Company, which shall contain the amount and
terms and conditions pursuant to which the Company proposes to issue additional
Class B Interests in the Company (herein the "Equity Notice"). In the Equity
Notice, the Company shall offer to each Member (the "First Refusal Offer") the
right to purchase a Proportionate share of the Class B Interests being offered
by the Company on the terms and conditions set forth in said Equity Notice. The
Members shall notify the Company of their respective elections within thirty
(30) days of receipt of the Equity Notice. No Member shall be required to make
additional capital contributions hereunder. If any Member does not wish to
accept such First Refusal Offer he, she or it shall give written notice to the
Company within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Equity Notice of his, her
or its intention to reject the First Refusal Offer. If an existing Class A Non-
Managing Member does not purchase his or its entire Proportionate share of the
Class B Interests being offered to him or it, such share may be purchased by the
other Class A Non-Managing Members on a Proportionate basis. This process shall
be repeated until all of the Class B Interests have been purchased by the
existing Class A Non-Managing Members or until no existing Class A Non-Managing
Member has any further interest in purchasing the Class B Interests -- but in no
event shall the process continue beyond thirty (30) days after the thirty (30)
day period referred to above. If existing Class A Non-Managing Members do not
purchase all of the Class B Interests, the unpurchased Interests shall then be
offered to outside investors on the same terms and conditions offered to the
Class A Non-Managing Members. The Members acknowledge that in connection with
any issuance of Class B Interests, Univision shall have the right to make an
additional long-term loan to the Company in a "Proportionate Amount," (as such
term is defined on attached Exhibit "D-2"), which additional note shall be on
the same terms and conditions as the Subordinated Note and shall be accompanied
by additional options to acquire the Class B Interests in an amount to allow
Univision to maintain an ownership interest in the Company equal to the then
Option Percentage (as such term is defined in attached Exhibit "D." The rights
of first refusal and Univision right to make an additional loan set forth in
this Section 7(c)(v) shall terminate upon the Initial Public Offering of
securities in the Company or a successor "C" Corporation pursuant to Section
26(i) hereof.
(d) Univision Transactions.

Membership Option (the "Univision Option") (collectively the "Univision
Investment"). The Subordinated Note shall refinance an existing $3 million loan
from Univision in its entirety. The terms of the Subordinated Note and the
Univision Option are more particularly described hereinbelow. The Members hereby
acknowledge and consent to the Univision Investment.
-7-
(ii) Univision Affiliation Agreements. Concurrent with the
--------------------------------
closing of the Univision Investment, Univision shall enter into a Univision
Network Affiliation Agreement relating to each station to provide for a new
twenty-five (25) year term under each Univision Agreement.
(iii) Terms of Subordinated Note. The Subordinated Note shall be
--------------------------
in the form of that certain Non-Negotiable Subordinated Note attached hereto as
Exhibit "D-1" and incorporated herein by this reference.
(iv) Terms of Univision Option. The Univision Option will grant
-------------------------
Univision the right to acquire an equity interest in the Company through the
acquisition of Class A Non-Managing Membership Units for a total exercise price

terms set forth in the Univision Subordinated Note Purchase and Option Agreement
attached hereto as Exhibit "D-2."
(e) Las Tres Campanas Television, Inc. ("Campanas"), a Nevada
----------------------------------
corporation, purchased from third parties outstanding shares of common stock of
Campanas. The cash portion of the purchase was advanced by the Company.
Campanas is a low-power television station in Las Vegas, Nevada which broadcasts
a simulcast of the Tierra Alta broadcast. In connection with said purchase,
Xxxxx and Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxx ("Xxxxx") guaranteed to make the payment of a
promissory note in the principal amount of $262,500 (the "Campanas Note"),
delivered by Campanas in connection with the purchase of said shares. In
consideration for Xxxxx'x and Seros' agreement to contribute all of the Campanas
stock and/or substantially all the assets of Campanas to Entravision upon full
repayment of the Campanas Note, the Company hereby agrees to (i) advance all
payments due under the Campanas Note and (ii) defend, indemnify and hold
harmless Seros and Xxxxx from and against any claim, demand, liability or
obligation arising out of or relating to the Campanas Note.
(f) Valley Channel Debt. The Company and certain Members thereof
-------------------
intend to jointly and severally borrow $25,000,000 pursuant to the Credit
Facility to fund the acquisition of Valley Channel (the "Valley Channel
Indebtedness"). All parties hereto acknowledge and agree that, notwithstanding
the subsequent transfer of the assets of Valley Channel to the Company, Valley
Channel shall retain the ultimate risk of loss with respect to the Valley
Channel Indebtedness. Accordingly, Valley Channel hereby agrees that should a
default exist pursuant to the terms of the Credit Facility with respect to the
Valley Channel Indebtedness, Valley Channel shall be obligated to make an
additional capital contribution to the Company pursuant to this Section 7(f) in
an amount equal to any deficiency with respect to the Valley Channel
Indebtedness after the Company has transferred, liquidated or otherwise disposed
of all of its assets in satisfaction thereof. Valley Channel hereby irrevocably
waives any rights of subrogation against the Company with respect to the Valley
Channel Indebtedness. All parties acknowledge and agree that this Section 7(f)
shall be interpreted in all respects such that Valley Channel shall retain the
"economic risk of loss" with respect to the Valley Channel Indebtedness as such
term is defined in Regulations Section 1.752-2, and Valley Channel agrees to
take all actions and execute all documents necessary to reflect the same.
-8-
8. Withdrawal of Capital; Interest on Capital. Except as may otherwise
------------------------------------------
be explicitly provided herein, a Member's capital contributions may not be
withdrawn without the approval of a majority of the Executive Committee members,
and no interest or similar return shall be paid on the capital contributions of
any Member.
9. Member Loans. No Member may lend monies to the Company without the
------------
written approval of the Managing Members. Any permitted Member loan shall be
evidenced by one or more separate agreements and instruments setting forth the
terms of such loan or, absent such documentation, shall bear interest at the
Prime Rate, plus two percent (2%), and shall be repaid in accordance with the
applicable provisions of Section 11 hereof. The making of any Member loan shall
not increase the lending Member's capital account and shall not entitle the
lending Member to an increase in its Percentage Interest. This Section 9 shall
not apply to the Univision Subordinated Note or loans by Univision to purchase
its Proportionate Amount.
10. Determination of Profit and Loss.
--------------------------------
(a) Fiscal Year. The Company's taxable year shall be December 31,
-----------
unless a different year is required under applicable federal income tax laws or
is permitted and is selected by the Managing Members.
(b) Accounting. The Company's net profit or net loss for each fiscal
----------
year shall be determined using the accrual basis method of accounting, unless a
different method is required under applicable federal income tax laws or is
permitted and is selected by the Managing Members.
(c) Computation Conventions. Each Member's share of the Company items
-----------------------
of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit shall be determined as of the end of
business on the last day of each fiscal year and allocated as provided herein.
Except as may otherwise be from time to time required by applicable provisions
of the Code and the Regulations, the Company's items of income, gain, loss,
deduction and credit shall be deemed to have been earned or incurred ratably
during each fiscal year; however, gains from sales and losses from sales, to the
extent of the gain or loss recognized and taxable in the year of such sale(s),
shall be allocated solely to the Members who were Members at the time of the
occurrence of the taxable event(s). Additionally, any allocation of income,
gains, deductions and/or losses to the Members which is to be made in accordance
with their respective Percentage Interests shall reflect any changes to the
Members' respective Percentage Interests which occurred during the Company's
fiscal year with respect to which the allocation is being made, deter mined
using the interim closing-of-the books method except that depreciation,
amortization and similar items with respect to assets owned by the Company
during the entire year shall be deemed to accrue ratably on a daily basis during
the year.
-9-
11. Capital Accounts and Valuation.
------------------------------
-10-
(a) Capital Account Principles. A separate capital account shall be
--------------------------
established and maintained for each Member in accordance with all applicable
provisions of the Regulations under Sections 704(b), 704(c) and 752 of the Code.
(b) Valuation Principles. The Members' respective capital accounts
--------------------
shall be adjusted to reflect a revaluation of the Company's Assets when such
revaluation is required by the Regulations under Code Section 704(b). In
situations where such Regulations permit a revaluation of Company Assets, but
where such revaluation is not required, such revaluation shall occur if the
Managing Members so determine.
For purposes of revaluing Company Assets and adjusting the Members'
respective capital accounts, a Majority in Interest of the Members shall attempt
in good faith to agree on a value of the Assets. If they are unable to agree on
a value, they shall attempt to agree on a single appraiser with substantial
experience in valuing similar Assets to value the Assets. If they are unable to
agree on a single appraiser to render an appraisal, the Managing Members and a
Majority in Interest of the Non-Managing Members shall each select an appraiser
with substantial experience in valuing similar Assets, and the two appraisers so
selected shall then agree upon a third similarly qualified appraiser. Such
third appraiser shall then render the appraisal. If either the Managing Members
or a Majority in Interest of the Non-Managing Members fails for any reason to
select an appraiser within fifteen (15) days after being requested to do so by
the other, the appraiser chosen by the other shall render the appraisal. The
determinations of the appraiser selected pursuant to this Section 11(b) to value
the Company's Assets shall be binding upon the Company, the Members and any
other interested persons.
12. Distributions and Withholding.
-----------------------------
(a) Quarterly Tax Distributions. The Company shall make distributions
---------------------------
of estimated Cash Available for Distribution to the Members in proportion to and
to the extent of their respective Presumed Company Tax Liabilities each of the
first three calendar quarters of each year. The Company may follow the
procedures described in the preceding sentence with respect to the fourth
calendar quarter, or at the option of the Executive Committee, the Company's
accountants shall compute the exact amount of each Member's annual tax liability
with respect to allocations of income and gain, loss and deduction from the
Company and the Company shall distribute to each Member out of Cash Available
for Distribution an amount equal to the excess (if any) of such actual tax
liability over the three previous quarterly distributions of Cash Available for
Distribution pursuant to this Section 12(a). Such final distribution (if
applicable) shall be made to each Member on or prior to the date payment is due
with respect to such actual tax liability. Any excess distribution made
pursuant to this Section 12(a) shall be offset against future distributions due
the Recipient pursuant to Section 12 (b) or (c).
(b) Distributions in the Ordinary Course of Business. Other than in
------------------------------------------------
connection with dissolution and termination of the Company, subject to the
---
Univision Note, Cash Available for Distribution shall be distributed at such
times and in such amounts as determined by the Executive Committee, in the
following order of priority:
-11-
(i) First, to the Members in proportion to and to the extent of their
respective shares of accrued but undistributed funds pursuant to Section 12(a)
hereof;
(ii) Second, to the Members who have made permitted loans to the
Company, in proportion to and to the extent of the amounts owed such Members
(including accrued but unpaid interest on such loans) and then due;
(iii) Thereafter, to the Members in accordance with their
respective Percentage Interests.
The Members acknowledge and agree that the Executive Committee has the right to
reasonably distribute amounts in excess of Reserves based on the actual and
contemplated needs of the Company at the time of such distribution.
(c) Distributions Upon Sale or Liquidation. Except as otherwise
--------------------------------------
provided in this Section 12(c), distributions in connection with (a) the
termination, liquidation, sale, merger, consolidation, or other business
combination of the Company with or into another person or persons, or (b) any
sale or conveyance to another person of the Assets of the Company as an entirety
(with each of the transactions referred to in (a) and (b) above (herein, a
"Capital Transaction"), shall be made to the Members as follows:
(i) First, to establish Reserves deemed appropriate by the Managing
Members to pay any known or contingent liabilities and, if appropriate, to pay
the costs of winding up and liquidating the Company;
(ii) Second, to the Members who have made permitted loans to the
Company, in proportion to and to the extent of the amounts owed such Members
(including accrued but unpaid interest on such loans);
(iii) Third, to the Members with positive capital account
balances, in proportion to and to the extent of such positive capital account
balances;
(iv) Thereafter, the Members in accordance with their respective
Percentage Interests.
(d) Withholding. The Company shall withhold in the manner, in the
-----------
amounts, and at the times prescribed by Sections 1441 et seq. and other
-- ---
applicable provisions of the Code and the Treasury Regulations in connection
with distributions from the Company and allocations of Company income, gain,
losses and deductions. The Company shall also comply with the requirements of
any applicable state laws requiring withholding on allocations of Company
income, gains, losses and deductions, as well as withholding on distributions.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, no withholding for federal income tax
purposes shall be required with respect to any Member who furnishes the Managing
Members with a certificate (the "Certificate") containing the following: (i) the
-12-
member's name, address and U.S. social security number or other U.S. taxpayer
identification number; (ii) a statement under penalty of perjury that the Member
is not a foreign person, but rather is a "U.S. person" within the meaning of
Code Section 7701(a)(30); and (iii) an obligation to notify the Company within
sixty (60) days of a change to the Member's status as a U.S. person. In the
event applicable state law provides a similar safe-harbor from withholding, no
withholding shall be required with respect to any Member who strictly complies
with the requirements of the safe-harbor, as determined by the Managing Members
in their sole discretion. Each Certificate supplied by a Member shall be
effective for a period of three (3) years after it has been provided to the
Managing Members, subject to earlier termination on the date the Company
receives notice or otherwise learns of a change in the Member's status as a U.S.
person. The Managing Members shall have no duty whatsoever to investigate the
veracity of any Certificate, and any Member furnishing a Certificate shall
indemnify the Managing Members and shall hold them and the Company harmless from
any and all losses incurred by the Managing Members and/or the Company,
including, without limitation, attorney's fees, by reason of the Company's
failure to withhold. The Managing Members are hereby authorized for the purpose
of satisfying a Member's indemnification obligation pursuant to this Section to
withhold all or any portion of any Company distribution that would otherwise be
payable to the Member. Any amount so withheld shall instead be distributed to
the Members who have been assessed a penalty or penalties for failure to
withhold and thereafter to the other Members on a Proportionate basis, and,
notwithstanding anything in the provisions of this Agreement relating to
allocations of Net Income (excepting only "regulatory allocations") to the
contrary, a corresponding amount of Company gross income (and, if necessary,
gains from sale) shall be allocated as quickly as possible to such Members in
proportion to and to the extent of the distributions made to them pursuant to
this Section.
(e) Certain In-Kind Distributions Within Five (5) Years. In the event
---------------------------------------------------
the Company is liquidated within five (5) years from the date an Asset with a
value in excess of its tax basis is contributed to the Company and, in
connection therewith, all or a portion of such Asset is to be distributed in-
kind pursuant to Section 11 hereof, the Asset to be distributed shall be
revalued pursuant to Section 11(b), and any increase or decrease in the value of
such Asset shall be reflected in the Members' capital accounts in accordance
with the applicable terms of this Agreement and the applicable principles of the
Regulations under Code Sections 704(b) and (c). After such revaluation and the
related capital account adjustments have occurred, subject to the provisions of
Section 12(c), the Asset (or as great an interest therein as possible) shall be
distributed to the Member(s) who contributed the Asset to the Company. The
Members acknowledge that, to the extent permitted by applicable state and
federal laws, the Member who contributed an Asset, such as a Station, has the
right to require the return of such Asset upon the Company's liquidation.
(f) Safir Class D Units. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
-------------------
contained herein, in no event shall the Class D Units to be held by Xxxxx Xxxxx
and issued pursuant to the terms of his Executive Employment Agreement dated
January 1, 1997 (the "Employment Date") by and between Safir and the Company
receive any distributions of cash or property pursuant to this Section 12 prior
to the third anniversary of the Employment Date.
-13-
13. Allocation of Net Income and Net Losses.
---------------------------------------
(a) General Allocation Scheme for Net Losses. Net Losses of the
----------------------------------------
Company shall be allocated to the Members in proportion to their Percentage
Interests. Notwithstanding the previous sentence, loss allocations to a Member
shall be made only to the extent that such loss allocations will not create a
deficit Adjusted Capital Account balance for that Member. Any loss not
allocated to a Member because of the foregoing provision shall be allocated to
the other Members (to the extent the other Members are not limited in respect of
the allocation of losses under this Section 13(a). Any loss reallocated under
this Section 13(a) shall be taken into account in computing subsequent
allocation of income and losses pursuant to this Section 13, so that the net
amount of any item so allocated and the income and losses allocated to each
Member pursuant to this Section 13, to the extent possible, shall be equal to
the net amount which would have been allocated to each Member pursuant to this
Section 13 if no reallocation of losses had occurred under this Section 13(a).
(b) General Allocation Scheme for Net Income. Net Income of the
----------------------------------------
Company realized other than in connection with the Capital Transaction of the
Company shall be allocated to the Members as follows:
(i) First, to the Members with negative Adjusted Capital Account
balances, in proportion to the extent of such negative Adjusted Capital Account
balances;
(ii) Second, to the Members in the proportion and to the extent
necessary to eliminate as quickly as possible the positive difference (if any)
between (1) the cumulative allocations of Net Losses to each Member, and (2) the
cumulative amount of Net Income previously allocated to such Member pursuant to
this Section 13(b) and Section 13(c);
(iii) Thereafter, to the Members in accordance with their respective
Percentage Interests.
(c) Special Allocations. Before allocating any amount(s) pursuant to
-------------------
Section 13(a) and/or Section 13(b), the following special allocations shall, in
the order in which they appear, be made:
(i) To the extent permissible under the Regulations, in the event
the Company is required to realize imputed income or expense, including interest
income or expense under Code Section 1272 et seq. and/or Code Section 7872 in
-- ---
connection with a transaction(s) between the Company and one or more Members,
each item of such imputed income or expense shall be allocated to the Member(s)
who is/are to report the corresponding imputed item, in proportion to and to the
extent of the imputed amount required to be reported by each such Member.
(ii) In the event that a Member is required to recognize income
pursuant to Code Section 83 in connection with receipt of a profits interest in
the Company, any corresponding deduction permitted to the Company under Code
Section 83(h) shall be specially allocated to the Member required to recognize
the income under Code Section 83. In the event that all or any portion
-14-
of a deduction pursuant to Code Section 83(h) is required to be capitalized,
deductible Net Losses shall instead be allocated as soon as possible to the
Member required to recognize the income under Code Section 83. This provision
shall be applied retroactively (to the extent deductions to be allocated
pursuant to this part (ii) can be allocated via amended Company tax returns) and
retrospectively (to the extent such deductions cannot be allocated via amended
Company tax returns) in the event that the Company's or any Member's return is
audited and an adjustment is determined requiring any Member to recognize income
under Code Section 83.
(d) Regulatory Allocations. It is the intention of the Members that
----------------------
the allocation of tax attributes arising from the Company comply with applicable
provisions of the Regulations under Sections 704(b), 704(c) and 752 of the Code.
To conform further the allocation provisions of this Agreement to such
Regulations, the Members agree that the following special allocation rules shall
apply, provided, however, that in respect of any particular allocation the
following rules shall supersede the provisions otherwise applicable under this
Section 13 only to the extent necessary to cause such allocation to be respected
under the Regulations. In the event of any inconsistency between the
Regulations and the provisions of this Section 13(d), the Regulations shall
govern.
(i) In accordance with Code Section 704(c), and the Regulations
promulgated thereunder, income, gain, loss and deduction with respect to any
property contributed to the capital of the Company shall, solely for tax
purposes, be allocated among the Members so as to take account of any variation
between the adjusted basis of such property to the Company for federal income
tax purposes, and its fair market value on the date of contribution.
Allocations pursuant to this Section 13(d)(i) are solely for purposes of
federal, state and local taxes. As such, they shall not affect or in any way be
taken into account in computing a Member's Account or share of profits, losses,
or other items of distribution pursuant to any provision of this Agreement. All
Members acknowledge and agree that the allocation of items pursuant to this
Section 13(d)(i) shall be made utilizing the traditional method of making
Section 704(c) allocations set forth in Regulation Section 1.704-3(b).
(ii) In the event that a revaluation of the Company's Assets is
reflected in the Members' capital accounts, depreciation, depletion,
amortization and other "tax items" shall be allocated in the manner required by
the Regulations Sections 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(g) and 1.704-1(b)(4)(i).
(iii) If during any Company fiscal year there is a net decrease in
the Minimum Gain or net decrease in Minimum Gain attributable to the disposition
of a particular Asset, then items of income and gain of the Company shall be
allocated in the manner required by the applicable "minimum gain chargeback"
provisions of Regulation Section 1.704-2.
(iv) If a Member receives an adjustment, allocation or
distribution described in Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) or
(6) which is unexpected within the meaning of Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)
(ii)(d) and which causes or increases a negative balance in such Member's
Adjusted Capital Account, such Member will, to the extent required by
Regulations Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d), be allocated an amount of gross income
and/or gain sufficient to eliminate such negative balance as quickly as
possible.
-15-
(v) All deductions attributable to Member Non-Recourse Loans
shall be allocated as required by the applicable provisions of Regulations
Section 1.704-2.
(e) Curative Allocations. Any special allocation of items pursuant to
--------------------
Sections 13(c) and (d)(iii) through (v) shall be taken into account under
Sections 13(a) and 13(b) in computing allocations of gain or loss on each sale
of Company Assets or an interest or interests therein so that the net amount of
income, gains, losses and deductions and all other items allocated to each
Member pursuant to this Section 13 shall, to the extent possible, be equal to
the net amount that would have been allocated to each Member if the above
specified special allocations had not been made.
(f) Depreciation Recapture. In determining the character (but not
----------------------
priority or amount) of Net Income allocable pursuant to Section 13(b) in
connection with a sale or sales of Assets giving rise to ordinary income
depreciation recapture, the Members shall be allocated ordinary income
depreciation recapture to the extent of their respective shares of the Company's
prior depreciation deductions.
(g) Allocation Adjustments. The allocations set forth in this Section
----------------------
are intended to allocate Company income, gains, deductions and losses to the
Members for federal income tax purposes in accordance with their economic
interests in the Company while complying with the requirements of Code Sections
704(b), 704(c) and 752, as well as the Regulations promulgated under such
Sections. If, in the opinion of the Company's tax counsel, the allocation of
profits or losses pursuant to the preceding provisions of this Section 13 does
not (i) satisfy the requirements of Code Section 704(b), 704(c), 752 or the
Regulations underlying any of these Sections, (ii) comply with any other
provisions of the Code or the Regulations, or (iii) properly take into account
any expenditure or item of income or gain of the Company or the transfer of an
interest in the Company, then notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
in the preceding provisions of this Section 13, the income, gains, deductions
and/or losses of the Company shall be allocated in such manner as the Company's
tax counsel determines to be required so as to reflect properly (i), (ii) and/or
(iii) of this Section 13(g), as the case may be, and the Managing Members shall
have the right to amend this Agreement without action by the Members to reflect
any such change in the method of allocating Company income, gains, deductions
and/or losses, provided, however, that any change in the method of allocating
such income, gains, deductions and/or losses shall not materially alter the pre-
tax economic arrangement among the Members.
(h) Safir Allocation Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the
----------------------------
contrary contained herein, in no event shall the Class D Units to be held by
Xxxxx Xxxxx and issued pursuant to the terms of his Executive Employment
Agreement dated to be entered into and commence as of the closing of the Valley
Channel Acquisition Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Employment Date") by and
between Safir and the Company receive any allocations of income, gain, loss or
deduction pursuant to this Section 13 prior to the third anniversary of the
Employment Date.

----------------------------------
(a) Maintenance of Books and Records. True and proper books, records,
--------------------------------
reports, bank account statements, accounting records and accounts of the Company
shall be maintained by the Managing Members at all times, in which shall be
entered fully and accurately all Company transactions. All such items, together
with this Agreement and any amendments thereto, shall at all times be kept at
the principal place of business of the Company, or such other location as the
Managing Members may select from time to time.
(b) Inspection Rights. Upon the request of a Member or the holder of
-----------------
an economic interest in the Company, for purposes reasonably related to the
interest of that person as a member or holder of an economic interest, the
Managing Members shall promptly deliver to the Member or holder of an economic
interest, at the expense of the Company, a copy of any or all of the items
listed in subparts (i), (ii) and (iv) of Section 14(d) below, as well as a copy
of this Agreement. Each Member and holder of an economic interest shall also
have the right, upon reasonable request, for purposes reasonably related to the
interest of that person as a Member or holder of an economic interest in the
Company, and at such person's sole expense, to inspect and copy during normal
business hours the other items listed in Section 14(d) below, as well as any
other books, records, reports, returns and the like required to be maintained at
the Company's principal office pursuant to Section 17058 of the Act.
(c) Financial and Tax Reports.
-------------------------
(i) Annual Report. At the end of each fiscal year, the books
-------------
shall be closed and statements reflecting the financial condition of the Company
and its profits or losses shall be prepared by the Managing Members or, at the

held by all Members. All meetings shall be held at the Company's principal
place of business unless a different and reasonably accessible location is
specified by the Member(s) calling the meeting in the notice thereof. A

approved requires more than a Majority in Interest of the Members, Members
holding cumulatively at least the minimum Percentage Interest so required

quorum for any Company meeting. Every Member entitled to vote on any matter
shall have the right to either in person or in one or more agents authorized by

Company. A proxy shall be deemed signed if the Member's name is placed on the
proxy (whether by manual signature, typewriting, telegraphic transmission,
electronic transmission or otherwise) by the Member or the Member's attorney-in-
fact.
If the Managing Members or Non-Managing Member(s) entitled to do so
elect to call a meeting, written notice of such meeting shall be given to all
Members not less than ten (10), nor more than sixty (60), days prior to the date
of such meeting. The notice shall state the nature of the business to be
transacted and the matters, if any, upon which the Members will be requested to

the proposals contained therein. If the notice has failed to state the nature
of a particular item addressed at the meeting, any approvals of the Members
sought in connection therewith shall require the unanimous vote of the Members.
Members may vote in person (or via voice vote on the telephone) or by written
proxy at any such meeting.

meeting, may consent to the holding of a meeting or may approve the minutes of a
meeting. All waivers, consents, and approvals must be filed with the Company's
records or made a part of the minutes of the meeting to which they relate.
Attendance at a meeting constitutes waiver of notice of the meeting unless a
Member objects, at the beginning of the meeting, if the meeting was not lawfully
called or convened.
When a meeting is adjourned to another time or place, notice need not
be given of the adjourned meeting if the time and place thereof are announced at
the meeting at which the adjournment is taken. At the adjourned meeting, the
Company may transact any business that may have been transacted at the original
meeting. If, however, the adjournment is for more than forty-five (45) days, or
if after the adjournment a new record date is fixed for the adjourned meeting, a
notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given in the manner specified above for
newly called meetings.
Unless a meeting is called as provided in this Section, the consent or
approval of the Members may be obtained and evidenced by the written consent
(without a meeting) of Members holding the requisite outstanding Percentage
Interests (as determined pursuant to the applicable terms of this Agreement),
signed and delivered to the Managing Members on behalf of the Company within
sixty (60) days of the record date for the consent(s) or approval(s).

portion of a Member's Company interest would otherwise be permitted by the
provisions of this Section 26, such assignment shall not be made if, in the
opinion of counsel to the Company, such assignment, standing alone or in
conjunction with other either previous or planned assignments, would result in a
material risk of the Company being treated as other than a partnership for
income tax purposes. Any transfer in violation of this subpart (c) shall be
null and void ab initio.
-- ------
(d) Right of First Offer. Except as permitted in Section 26(b), if at
--------------------
any time a Member desires to transfer all (or any part) of his or its Company
interest (or any owner of an indirect, direct or beneficial controlling interest
in such Member desires to transfer such interest) ("Offer"), the Member shall,
prior to any other action, give notice, together with a description of the terms
upon which the Member would transfer such interest (the "Offer Notice"), to the
Managing Members on behalf of and for the benefit of the Company.
The Managing Members shall accept or reject such Offer as to the
entire offered interest within thirty (30) days of receipt of the Offer Notice.
Failure by the Managing Members to give notice of election within the required
time period shall be deemed an election not to accept the Offer set forth in the
Offer Notice. If the Managing Members elect not to exercise the Company's right
of first offer, the remaining Members shall have the right to purchase a
Proportionate share of the interest of the offeree pursuant to the terms of the
Offer Notice.
In the Offer Notice which is submitted to the remaining Members, the
offeree shall offer (the "First Negotiation Offer") to each other Member the
right to purchase a Proportionate share of the Company interest of the offeree
for the same Proportionate price and subject to the same terms and conditions as
set forth in said Offer Notice. If any affected Member does not wish to accept
a First Negotiation Offer, he or it shall give written notice to the Company
within thirty (30) days after the Offer Notice of his or its intention to reject
the First Negotiation Offer, and each Member who has decided to accept the First
Negotiation Offer shall be entitled to purchase his or its Proportionate share
of the Company interest subject to the rejected First Negotiation Offer. The
other Members shall notify the offeree of their respective elections within
forty-five (45) days of the Offer Notice. Elections to purchase the entire
Company interest of the offeree Member must be received within such forty-five
(45) day period; otherwise, the offeree Member shall be free to sell his or its
Company interest to any third party at a price equal to or greater than and upon
the terms and conditions set forth in the Offering Notice. Any sale of an
interest hereunder to a third party shall comply with the following
requirements: (i) the sale documentation must contain provisions whereby any
proposed transferee is obligated to comply with all provisions of this Agreement
and any amendments hereto; (ii) any transferee must be a principal and not an
agent acting on behalf of an undisclosed principal, and such principal may not
be related to or an affiliate of the offeree or with respect to which the
offeree has any direct or indirect ownership or control; and (iii) any
prospective transferee must be of good business character and
-29-
reputation and is financially capable of carrying out all obligations of the
selling Member under this Agreement and related agreements. If the other Members
collectively elect to accept the First Negotiation Offer, they shall acquire the
offeree's Company interest upon the terms set forth therein. Failure by the
other Members to give notice of election within the required time period shall
be deemed an election not to accept the First Negotiation Offer set forth in the
Offer Notice. If the sale is not consummated within seventy-five (75) days from
the date of the other Members' elections not to accept the First Negotiation
Offer, the relevant Company interest shall then again become subject to the
right of first offer set forth in this Section 26(d). This Section shall not be
applicable to transfers described in Section 26(b). The right of first offer set
forth in this Section 26(d) shall terminate upon the Initial Public Offering of
securities in the Company or the "C" Corporation pursuant to Section 26(i)
herein.
(e) Purchase Option. In the event that a Member or an assignee of a
---------------
Member or an assignee thereof (referred to in this Section 26(e) as the
"Transferor") violates impermissibly the transfer restrictions set forth in this
Agreement, withdraws without the consent of the Managing Members, assigns to one
or more creditors, pledges, or otherwise directly or indirectly encumbers or
hypothecates, all or any portion of such person's interest in the Company (the
affected portion of such Member's interest in the Company is hereinafter
referred to in this Section 26(e) as the "Option Interest"), whether such
violation, withdrawal, assignment, gift, pledge, encumbrance or hypothecation is
voluntary or involuntary, the persons identified as Optionees below shall have
the option ("Purchase Option") to acquire all or any portion of the Option
Interest, including all or any portion of the Option Interest which has been
assigned or gifted to, or pledged or otherwise encumbered or hypothecated for
the benefit of, a third party. Any third party who receives an interest in all
or any portion of an Option Interest shall receive such interest subject to this
Purchase Option. Provided, however, this Section 26(e) shall not apply and
there is no Purchase Option created when such interest is (a) encumbered by an
involuntary lien, (b) hypothecated with the consent of the Executive Committee
or (c) hypothecated in connection with a Company loan which has been approved by
the Executive Committee.
The persons possessing the Purchase Option with respect to any
impermissible transfer, withdrawal, assignment to one or more creditors, pledge,
encumbrance or hypothecation of an interest in the Company shall be all Members
whose interests are not (in whole or in part) subject to this Purchase Option
("Optionees"). Each such Member shall have the right to purchase his or its
Proportionate share of the Option Interest, and any portion of the Option
Interest that one or more of such persons does not elect to purchase may be
purchased by the other persons wishing to do so on a Proportionate basis
(counting, for this purpose, only those persons interested in purchasing an
additional portion of the Option Interest), and this process shall be repeated
until elections have been received to purchase the entire Option Interest or
until there is no further interest in purchasing any further portion of the
Option Interest.
The Purchase Option may be exercised at any time within sixty (60)
days following the date on which each Member receives written notice that such
transfer, withdrawal, assignment, pledge, encumbrance or hypothecation has
occurred, and the identity of each person holding all or a portion of the Option
Interest. Each such Optionee wishing to exercise his or its Purchase Option may
do so by
-30-
providing written notice to the Managing Members (or, if all or a portion of the
Managing Members' interest is the Option Interest, the Non-Managing Member with
the largest Percentage Interest of the Non-Managing Members willing to act in
the place of the Managing Members pursuant to this Section) within sixty (60)
days following receipt of the notice referred to in the preceding sentence,
which notice to the Managing Members (or, if all or a portion of the Managing
Members' interest is the Option Interest, the Non-Managing Member with the
largest Percentage Interest of the Non-Managing Members willing to act in the
place of the Managing Members pursuant to this Section) shall state that the
Purchase Option is being exercised and shall specify the portion of the Option
Interest that he or it wishes to acquire pursuant to the Purchase Option. The
Managing Members (or all or a portion of the Managing Members' interest is the
Option Interest, the Non-Managing Member with the largest Percentage Interest of
the Non-Managing Members willing to act in the place of the Managing Members
pursuant to this Section) shall then take all steps necessary or appropriate to
reconcile the notices (so that all interested persons acquire only that portion
of the Option Interest to which they are entitled) and, once such reconciliation
has occurred, shall provide written notice to any or all third parties holding
all or a portion of the Option Interest specifying that the Purchase Option has
been exercised and the portion of the Option Interest held by each such third
party that is to be acquired pursuant to exercise of the Purchase Option.
Each electing Optionee shall pay to the Managing Members (or, if all
or a portion of the Managing Members' interest is the Option Interest, the Non-
Managing Member with the largest Percentage Interest of the Non-Managing Members
willing to act in the place of the Managing Members pursuant to this Section)
who shall then pay as nominee of such Optionee to the appropriate person or
persons, the value of the portion of the Option Interest (determined as provided
herein) in which such person(s) has (have) an interest. Such amount shall be
paid via cash, one or more certified or cashier's checks or a combination of
cash and one or more certified or cashier's checks.
In the event that exercise of the Purchase Option, or the purchase of
all or any portion of an Option Interest pursuant thereto, is delayed or stayed
for any reason pursuant to judicial order or by operation of the United States
bankruptcy laws or other applicable insolvency laws, each electing Optionee may
elect not to proceed with purchase of all or any portion of the Option Interest
or may, within sixty (60) days after the judicial order or the U.S. bankruptcy
and/or insolvency laws is (are) no longer applicable, elect to proceed with the
contemplated transaction.
For purposes of determining the value of an interest in the Company
being acquired pursuant to the Purchase Option, the value of the Assets shall
first be determined pursuant to Section 11 hereof, and the value of the
Transferor's entire interest in the Company shall be equal to the amount that
the Transferor would have been entitled to receive pursuant to Section 12(c)
hereof assuming a cash sale of the Assets for such value had occurred
immediately prior to the occurrence of the event which triggered the Purchase
Option. The value of each portion of the Option Interest being acquired
pursuant to the Purchase Option shall be equal to the value of the Transferor's
entire interest in the Company multiplied by the percentage interest represented
by such interest being acquired pursuant to the exercise of the Purchase Option
less an amount equal to any loss, damage, injury, cost, expense or other
-31-
amount (including attorney's fees) suffered by the Company or the Members as a
result of the impermissible transfer of the Option Interest by the Transferor.
(f) Consent Required for Substitution. Subject to the conditions to
---------------------------------
substitution set forth below, an assignee of an interest in the Company may
become a Member in the place and stead of his or its assignor only if a Majority
in Interest of the other Members vote in favor of the assignee's admission to
the Company as a substituted Member. An assignee who has become a substituted
Member shall have, to the extent assigned to him or it, the rights and powers of
his or its assignor, and the assignee shall be subject to the restrictions and
liabilities of such assignor.
If an assignee does not comply with all of the conditions to
substitution set forth below, or all of the other Members do not vote in favor
of the assignee's admission as a substituted Member, the assignee shall hold a
bare economic interest in the Company, with no right to vote, participate in the
management and affairs of the Company or to become or exercise any rights of a
Member. Unless and until an assignee becomes a substituted Member, his or its
assignor shall continue to possess all rights pertinent to the assigned interest
(other than the right to receive distributions and related allocations of
income, gains, losses, deductions, and credits in accordance with this
Agreement).
Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, Sections
26(f) and 26(g) shall not apply to assignments to the Bank, or an assignee of
the Bank, pursuant to the Credit Facility.
(g) Conditions to Substitution.
--------------------------
(i) No assignee of an interest in the Company shall be entitled
to become a substituted Member unless and until his or its assignor has provided
the Managing Members with the assignee's name and address and all details
relating to the assignment.
(ii) No assignee of an interest in the Company shall be entitled
to become a substituted Member unless the assignee shall consent in writing, in
form satisfactory to the Managing Members, to be bound by the terms of this
Agreement in the place and stead of the assigning Member.
(iii) No assignee of a Non-Managing Member's Company interest
shall be entitled to become a substituted Non-Managing Member unless and until
it has been demonstrated to the satisfaction of the Managing Members that the
assignment was pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended, and pursuant to an exemption from qualification under
applicable state securities laws.
(iv) If, in connection with or as a condition to the assignment
of any interest in the Company, the consent or approval of the Federal
Communications Commission (the "FCC"), or any other governmental authority is
required under applicable law, then the Company shall forthwith take those steps
required to obtain and shall use its best efforts to duly obtain at the earliest
possible date such consent or approval. Any time limitation upon or requirement
for such assignment shall, if necessary for the assignment, be extended by such
period of time as is reasonably necessary to obtain
-32-
such consent or approval, all costs and expenses in obtaining such consent or
approval shall be paid or reimbursed by the Company. The Members shall cooperate
with the Company to the extent required to obtain such consent or approval,
which shall be, if required, a condition to the substitution of any assignee of
an interest in the Company.
(h) Managing Members Signatory Authority. Subject to full compliance
------------------------------------
with the terms and provisions of this Agreement, any instrument reflecting the
assignment of all or a portion of the interest of a Member and the admission of
the assignee as a substituted Member of the Company need only be executed and
acknowledged by the Managing Members, the assignor and the assignee. Upon the
admission of a substituted Member, Exhibit "A" shall be amended to reflect the
name, number of Units and Percentage Interest of such substituted Member and to
eliminate or adjust, if necessary, the name, Units and Percentage Interest of
the predecessor of such substituted Member.
(i) Initial Public Offering. The Members agree that upon the vote of
-----------------------
at least seventy-five percent (75%) of the Members and, subject to compliance
with applicable laws, the Company shall roll up to a "C" corporation (the "C"
Corporation) in connection with an initial public offering of such "C"
Corporation, which is (a) pursuant to a firm underwriting commitment by a
reputable investment banker, (b) has a pre-offering valuation of at least $150
million, and (c) results in the "C" Corporation's securities being listed on the
American Stock Exchange, the New York Stock Exchange or NASDAQ National Market
System (herein an "Initial Public Offering"). Each of the Members hereby agrees
to cooperate in connection with the contribution of their membership interests
in the Company to a such newly formed C-Corporation, with each existing Member
to receive the common stock of the "C" Corporation in proportion to its capital
account balance in the Company as of the date of the incorporation after
revaluing such Member's capital account in accordance with Treasury Regulations
and Section 11(b) to reflect the fair market value of the Company's assets as of
the date of incorporation. As of the date of incorporation, the common stock
held by all Members shall be granted standard piggyback registration rights
entitling the Members to participate on a pari passu basis in registrations of
the "C" Corporation's common stock under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended,
other than the Initial Public Offering and subject to pro rata cut-backs at the
underwriter's discretion. If Univision is a Class A Member and the Managing
Members both consent to a proposed Initial Public Offering, Univision agrees to
consent to such Initial Public Offering if (i) three (3) years from the
execution of this Agreement shall have expired; (ii) no more than five percent
(5%) of the shares to be sold in such offering may be purchased by a single
Person, and (iii) no more than thirty percent (30%) of the Company will be sold
in the Initial Public Offering.

Member, the Company shall continue. Subject to Section 26, the representative
or successor in interest of the Non-Managing Member shall be vested with the
same status as that of its predecessor in interest.

(ii) the capital of the Company (as determined via reference to applicable
guidelines published by the Internal Revenue Service from time to time) owned by

Member's entire interest pursuant to the Purchase Option set forth in Section 26
to continue the Company, and (2) appoint new Managing Members (who may be an
existing Non-Managing Member or an outside person) who agrees to be the new
Managing Members. The Company shall take steps to amend this Agreement to
convert the interest of the former Managing Member to that of a Non-Managing

Members (subject to Proportionate dilution of their Percentage Interest in
connection with admission of an outside persons as the new Managing Member(s) or

"key man" insurance (as provided for in Section 27(c)(ii) hereof) or the
proceeds from such "key man" insurance is less than twenty percent (20%) of the
Agreed Price of the Deceased Member's Membership Units to be sold, the Company

twenty percent (20%) of the Deceased Member's Membership Units to be sold at the
Agreed Price provided for in Section 27(c)(iii) hereof, which shall be paid in

at commercially reasonable terms and conditions.
(iii) Determination of the Agreed Price. The price per
---------------------------------
membership unit ("Agreed Price") at which Membership Units may be purchased
pursuant to Section 27(e) hereof shall be equal to the fair market value on a
per membership unit basis of each Membership Unit as of the last day (the
"Determination Date") of the most recent calendar month ending before the date
notice is given exercising, or the occurrence of the event triggering, the
applicable right to purchase. Said fair market value shall be determined by the
mutual agreement of the Members or, in the event the Members fail to so agree
(within thirty (30) business days after the later of (i) the event or the
exercise of the option requiring or permitting a purchase hereunder, or (ii) the
appointment of a personal representative, executor or guardian as the case may
be), as determined by a qualified appraiser mutually agreed to by the Members
(the "Appraiser"), the cost and expense of which shall be borne by the Company.
The parties or the qualified appraiser, as appropriate, shall determine the
value of each Membership Unit by first determining the fair market value of the
Company and then dividing such amount by the number of then outstanding

Agreed Price or (ii) delivery of cash (in the form of a cashier's check) as to a
portion of the Agreed Price (up to the amount as provided below) and a
promissory note in an amount equal to the balance of the Agreed Price, if any.
If the Deceased Member's Estate elects delivery of both cash and a promissory
note, the maximum amount of cash which the Deceased Member's Estate may elect to
receive shall be the greater of (i) 20% of the Agreed Price of the Deceased
Member's Membership Units to be sold or (b) the amount of the proceeds from any
"key man" insurance available to the Company pursuant to Section 27(c)(ii)
hereof (but not greater than the amount of the Agreed Price). Any promissory
note delivered to the Deceased Member's Estate pursuant to this Section
27(c)(iv) shall be (i) payable quarterly over a period no longer than five (5)
years and shall accrue interest at the Prime Rate and (ii) secured by the
Deceased Member's Membership Units pursuant to the form of the Membership Unit
Pledge Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit "__" and incorporated herein by this
reference (the "Membership Unit Pledge Agreement"). Each of the Members hereby
agrees that the Deceased Member's Estate, concurrent with entering into the
Membership Unit Pledge Agreement, shall enter into a subordination agreement
with Company pursuant to which the Deceased Member's Estate will subordinate its
security interest in the Deceased Member's Membership Units to Union Bank of

Guarantee and the Pledge Agreement, as well as any security interest which may
be granted to any future lenders who may provide financing to the Company.

concurrent with (i) Cabrillo, Golden Hills, KSMS-TV, Las Tres and Tierra Alta

(ii) Cabrillo's, Golden Hills', KSMS-TV's, Las Tres's and Tierra ALTA's
obligation to purchase a deceased member's stock in the Other Agreements, the
Members hereto acknowledge and agree that the Company, Cabrillo, Golden Hills,

stock in a manner such that the total percentage ownership interest (both direct
and indirect) of each of the stockholders of Cabrillo, Golden Hills, KSMS-TV,
Las Tres and Tierra Alta remain, relative to each other, the same (i.e., within
two decimal points) as just prior to the purchase of such Membership Units and
stock by the Company, Cabrillo, Golden Hills, KSMS-TV, Las Tres and Tierra ALTA.

----------------------------
the Agreed Price, the Deceased Member's Estate shall deliver to the Company a
receipt for the payment of the purchase and a membership unit assignment
separate from certificate.

-------
Majority in Interest of the other Members solely "for cause". For purposes of
Section 27(c), the phrase "for cause" means: (i) conviction of a felony or (ii)
upon thirty (30 ) days' written notice following the determination by the
Executive Committee that the Managing Member has engaged in intentional fraud or
intentional misappropriation of Company assets; provided that the Company gives

plural, as the identity of the person, persons or Member or Members or the
context may require. Any reference to the Code, the Act or other statutes or
laws will include all amendments, modifications, or replacements thereto.
38. Severability. Should any one or more of the provisions of this
------------
Agreement or of any agreement entered into pursuant to this Agreement be
determined to be illegal or unenforceable, then such illegal or unenforceable
provision shall be modified by the proper court or arbitrator to the minimum
extent necessary and possible to make such provision enforceable, and such
modified provision and all other provisions of this Agreement and of each other
agreement entered into pursuant to this Agreement shall be given effect
separately from the provision or portion thereof determined to be illegal or
unenforceable and shall not be affected thereby.
39. Time of Essence. Time is of the essence in all deadlines and time
---------------
periods set forth in this Agreement.
40. Further Acts. Each Member agrees to perform such additional acts and
------------
to execute and deliver such additional documents as reasonably may be necessary
to carry out promptly the intent of this Agreement.
41. Governing Law. Notwithstanding the place where this Agreement may be
-------------
executed by any of the parties hereto, this Agreement, the rights and
obligations of the parties hereto, and any claims and disputes relating thereto,
shall be subject to and governed by the Act and the other laws of the State of
Delaware as applied to agreements among Delaware residents to be entered into
and performed entirely within the State of Delaware, and such laws shall govern
the limited liability company aspects of this Agreement.
42. Attorneys' Fees. In case any proceeding, whether at law, in equity or
---------------
in arbitration, shall be brought by any Member to enforce the terms of this
Agreement, or any controversy arising therefrom, the prevailing party in each
suit, as determined by the court or arbitrator, shall be entitled to the payment
of reasonable attorneys' fees.
43. Maximum Interest Rates. Notwithstanding any provision in this
----------------------
Agreement to the contrary, no amount owing from any person pursuant to this
Agreement or any agreement executed pursuant to the terms hereof shall accrue
interest in excess of the maximum applicable rate permitted by California law.
In the event that a person accepts as interest an amount which would exceed the
highest lawful rate, the amount which would constitute excess interest shall be
applied to the reduction of the unpaid principal balance due pursuant to the
loan with respect to which such payment is being made.
-39-
44. Arbitration. Subject to Section 17 above, which shall be controlling
-----------
with respect to disagreement between the Managing Members on day-to-day
decisions affecting the management of the Company, any disputes which arise
involving all or any of the Members under this Agreement shall be subject first
to mediation, and then, in the absence of a resolution, to final, binding
arbitration upon written request by any Member involved in the dispute in
accordance with this Section. The dispute shall be submitted before the
American Arbitration Association ("AAA") within thirty (30) days after the
requesting notice in accordance with the AAA's Commercial Arbitration Rules as
modified by this Section; a decision shall be issued within thirty (30) days
after the close of the record; and judgment upon the award may be entered in any
court having jurisdiction over the judgment. Upon invocation of the
mediation/arbitration procedure by a Member, each party to the dispute shall
submit to each other and the mediator/arbitrator their respective proposals for
resolution of the dispute, and the mediation/arbitration shall be limited to the
sole question of determining which written proposal is to be accepted. The
mediator/arbitrator shall have no authority to compromise between the proposals.
The substantive law of California shall be applied by the mediator/arbitrator,
and this requirement shall be deemed jurisdictional. This mediation/arbitration
provision shall be deemed self-executing. If a party to a dispute fails to
appear at any properly noticed mediation/arbitration proceeding, an award may be
entered against such party notwithstanding such failure to appear. If the
parties disagree on the choice for a/an mediator/arbitrator, the parties shall
jointly request the AAA to furnish a list of five available attorneys,
businessmen, or both, experienced generally in commercial matters. After
receipt of such list and an opportunity to consider the names, each party may
designate in writing to the AAA not more than two names to be eliminated from
the selection process. If more than one name remains after such eliminations
are made, the selection of the mediator/arbitrator shall be made by lot from the
remaining names. If either party makes demand upon the other for
mediation/arbitration, the arbitration shall be conducted at the AAA offices in
Los Angeles, California. The parties may mutually agree to another location.
The expenses, wages and other compensation of any witnesses called before the
mediator/arbitrator shall be borne by the party calling the witnesses. Other
expenses incurred, including wages of participants, and preparation of briefs
and date to be presented to the mediator/arbitrator, shall be borne separately
by the respective parties. The fee for the arbitration, the
mediator's/arbitrator's fees and expenses, the cost of any hearing room, and the
cost of a shorthand or similar reporter and the original transcript shall all be
borne by the Company.
45. No Third Party Beneficiaries. The Members intend and agree that their
----------------------------
respective obligations set forth in this Agreement constitute an agreement
solely to and for the benefit of each other and not to or for the benefit of the
Company or any third party. Accordingly, except as otherwise explicitly set
forth herein, no third party shall be entitled to enforce the Member's
obligations set forth herein.
46. Consent of Spouse. The spouse of any individual Member who has not
-----------------
executed documents as a co-owner of such Member's interest in the Company shall
be required to execute a "Consent of Spouse" in the form of Exhibit "C" attached
hereto.
47. Signatory Authority. The individual or individuals signing this
-------------------
Agreement on behalf of each Member represents to the other Members that he or
she has full authority to do so, has received
-40-
all required consents, and that his or her signature (together with the
signature or signatures of any other individual signing below on behalf of such
Member) is (are) the only signatures required to bind the Member on whose behalf
he or she is signing this Agreement.
48. Counsel to the Company. Counsel to the Company may also be counsel to
----------------------
any Managing Member or any Affiliate of a Managing Member. The Managing Members
may execute on behalf of the Company and the Members any consent to the
representation of the Company the counsel may request pursuant to the California
Rules of Professional Conduct or similar rules of any other jurisdiction
("Rules"). The Company is initially selecting Xxxxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx & XxXxxxxx,
L.L.P. ("Company Counsel") as legal counsel to the Company. Notwithstanding any
adversity that may develop, in the event of any dispute or controversy arises
between any Members and the Company, or between any Members or the Company on
the one hand, and a Managing Member on the other hand, then each Managing Member
agrees that Company Counsel may represent either the Company or such Managing
Member, or both, in any such dispute or controversy to the extent permitted by
the Rules, and each Member hereby consents to such representation. Each Member
further acknowledges that while communications with the Company Counsel
concerning the formation of the Company, its Members and Managing Members may be
confidential with respect to third parties, no Member has any expectation that
such communications are confidential with respect to such Member.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Members have executed this Agreement as of the
date first shown above.
