TAX ALLOCATION AGREEMENT

     THIS TAX ALLOCATION AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is dated as of the                     day of                     , 2008, by and between The X. X. Xxxxxxx Company, an Ohio corporation (“EWS”), and Scripps Networks Interactive, Inc. (“SNI”), an Ohio corporation and an indirect subsidiary of EWS (together with EWS, each a “Party” and collectively, the “Parties”). Capitalized terms used in this Agreement are defined as set forth in Section 1.01.

     WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of EWS has determined that it is in the best interests of EWS to separate the SNI Business and the EWS Business into two independent public companies, (the “Separation”), on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Separation Agreement, in order to separate businesses with differing strategic directions, eliminate existing constraints regarding capital allocation, concentrate management focus, allow more tailored management incentives, and accommodate differing shareholder bases;

     WHEREAS, in order to effectuate the foregoing, EWS and SNI have entered into a Separation and Distribution Agreement, dated as of                     , 2008 (the “Separation Agreement”), pursuant to which and subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, the SNI Business shall be separated from the EWS Business and pursuant to the Distribution, the SNI Class A Common Shares and SNI Common Voting Shares shall be distributed on a pro rata basis to the holders of EWS Class A Common Shares and EWS Common Voting Shares;

     WHEREAS, for U.S. federal income Tax purposes, through the Distribution Date, income of certain present and former members of the SNI Group has been or will be included in EWS Consolidated Returns;

     WHEREAS, certain SNI Combined Group members have filed or will file Combined Returns covering U.S. state and local income Taxes with EWS Combined Groups as part of their respective Total Combined Groups;

     WHEREAS, SNI and other members of the SNI Group will cease to be members of the EWS Group for U.S. federal income Tax purposes after the Distribution Date, and SNI and other members of SNI Combined Groups will cease to be members of their respective Total Combined Groups for U.S. state and local income Tax purposes after the Distribution Date;

     WHEREAS, the failure of the Distribution to have a Tax-Free Status or certain actions taken with respect to SNI Capital Stock and EWS Capital Stock could subject EWS, SNI and their shareholders to additional Tax costs in connection with the Distribution; and

     WHEREAS, EWS and SNI desire in this Agreement to (i) set forth Tax allocation principles for Affiliation Years for U.S. federal income Tax purposes and Combined Years for U.S. state and local income Tax purposes, which, except to the extent provided herein, will supersede all prior policies and procedures governing the allocation of Taxes, (ii) define the effects upon the settlement and allocation of certain Tax liabilities and Tax benefits of transactions or developments that occur during taxable years commencing after the Distribution Date, (iii) set forth the responsibility for their respective stand-alone income and other Tax liabilities, and (iv) allocate liability for certain Tax costs that may be incurred in connection with the Distribution.

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, the promises and covenants set forth herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, EWS and SNI hereby agree as follows:

From and after the date of this Agreement, SNI shall pay to EWS no later than the day before each due date for the payment of quarterly estimated U.S. federal income Taxes for the taxable year of the EWS Group ending on December 31, 2008 and the payment due March 15, 2009 the difference, if any, between (A) 2008 Tax Liability due based on the method for making estimated payments elected by EWS pursuant to Section 6655 of the Code, and (B) the sum of any payments previously made by SNI to EWS with respect to the 2008 Tax Liability.

- 12 -

     (c) Payment Upon Filing Return. At least three (3) business days before the day that EWS files the EWS Consolidated Return for the 2008 Taxable Year, EWS shall determine the amount of the 2008 Tax Liability, any 2008 Excess EWS Group Benefits, and any 2008 Excess SNI Group Benefits. SNI shall pay to EWS or EWS shall pay to SNI, as the case may be, the difference between (i) the 2008 Tax Liability and (ii) (A) the sum of the payments previously made by SNI to EWS with respect to the 2008 Tax Liability reduced (to and below zero) by (B) the sum of any payments previously made or to be made by EWS to SNI in respect of any 2008 Excess EWS Group Benefits and increased by any payments made or to be made by SNI to EWS in respect of any 2008 Excess SNI Group Benefits and all Taxes attributable to the income of all CPMCO for the 2008 Taxable Year.

SNI and EWS shall finally settle such accounts as otherwise provided in this Article II.

     (e) Assignment of Taxable Items. The Parties shall determine the amounts of income, gain, loss, deduction, and Credit of the SNI Group for the 2008 Taxable Year that are properly includable in the EWS Consolidated Return for the taxable year of the EWS Group ending on December 31, 2008. For all relevant purposes of this Agreement, the members of the SNI Group and each SNI Combined Group shall cease to be members of the EWS Group and their respective Total Combined Groups, as of the end of the Distribution Date, and SNI shall cause the books of account of the members of the SNI Group and the SNI Combined Groups to be closed for accounting and Tax purposes as of the end of the Distribution Date in accordance with EWS’s direction. In determining consolidated taxable income for the taxable period that ends on the Distribution Date, the income and other items of the SNI Group shall be determined in accordance with Treasury Regulations Section 1.1502-76(b)(l), -76(b)(2)(i) and — 76(b)(2)(iv) and no election shall be made under Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-76(b)(2)(ii)(D) to ratably allocate items. However, an allocation shall be made under Treasury Regulations Section 1.1502- 76(b)(2)(iii) if such allocation is determined by the Parties to be necessary to appropriately allocate income in the event that the Distribution Date occurs on any date other than the last or first day of any month. Pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.1502-76(b)(2)(vi), any item of a pass-through entity that is owned by a member of the SNI Group shall be allocated as if such member sold its entire interest in the entity immediately before the Distribution. In the event that a member or members of the SNI Group would be treated as owning an interest of less than 50% in the aggregate in such pass-through entity, then pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.706-l(c)(ii), each such member’s share of any distributive items shall be the amount determined by taking into account the pro rata part of such items that such member would have included in taxable income had such member remained a partner or owner of the pass-through entity until the end of the partnership tax year based on the portion of the partnership taxable year that has elapsed through the Distribution Date or upon such other reasonable method that the Parties may agree. SNI and SNI Affiliates shall file their respective Tax Returns for the taxable period beginning on the first day after the Distribution Date consistently with such determinations.

     (f) Determining Foreign Attributes. Without limiting the foregoing, the Parties shall also determine the portion of any Foreign Attribute for the SNI Group that is allocable to the taxable year ending December 31, 2008, provided, that such portion to be allocated will not include any amount described in Section 951 (a) of the Code (relating to inclusions in income of controlled foreign corporation earnings) or any amount described in Section 1293(a) of the Code (relating to inclusions in income of qualified electing fund earnings), or any indirect foreign Tax Credit under Sections 960 and 1293(f) of the Code for foreign income Taxes deemed paid with respect to either of these items; and provided, further, that, without the prior written consent of EWS, such consent not being unreasonably withheld, SNI and its

- 13 -

subsidiaries shall not elect to recapture an amount of taxable income from sources without the U.S. of any member of the SNI Group greater than the minimum amount required by Section 904(f)(l) of the Code for any Affiliation Year. SNI shall provide EWS with all information it reasonably requests to make any determination under this subsection (f). EWS will likewise share all information with SNI necessary for SNI to determine its share of the consolidated foreign Tax Credits for the taxable year ending December 31, 2008 and all prior taxable years.

     SECTION 2.03. U.S. Federal Alternative Minimum Tax.

     (a) SNI Tax Liability. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, if, for any Affiliation Year, the EWS Group is liable for alternative minimum Tax for U.S. federal income Tax purposes (or any similar U.S. federal Tax) (“AMT”) and the SNI Group would be liable for AMT if it filed a Tax Return as a separate consolidated group (“SNI Separate AMT”). SNI shall pay to EWS an amount (the “SNI AMT Liability”) determined by the Parties equal to the product of the AMT liability for the EWS Group (the “EWS AMT Liability”) and a fraction (the “Fraction”) (x) the numerator of which is the sum of the Tax preference items and adjustments of the SNI Group relevant for purposes of the computation of AMT (the “TPIs”) for such Affiliation Year and (y) the denominator of which is the sum of the TPIs of all members of the EWS Group for such Affiliation Year. The SNI AMT Liability for such Affiliation Year shall not exceed the amount of the SNI Separate AMT for such Affiliation Year.

     (b) Minimum Tax Credits. If for any Affiliation Year SNI has paid to EWS the SNI AMT Liability, EWS shall pay to SNI its proportionate share (determined below) of the minimum Tax credit for U.S. federal income Tax purposes (the “Minimum Tax Credit”) arising from such Affiliation Year which is actually utilized by the EWS Group in a subsequent Affiliation Year. SNI’s proportionate share of such credit for any Affiliation Year shall be equal to the product of such credit and the Fraction (defined in subsection (a) above). In no event shall SNI be paid amounts in the aggregate in respect of such credit in excess of the corresponding SNI AMT Liability.

     SECTION 3.02. Pre-2008 Taxable Year. For each taxable year ending on or before December 31, 2007, the Parties shall determine each SNI Combined Group’s respective share, as determined below, of the total U.S. state and local Tax liability in each such Combined State (each a “Combined State Total Tax Liability”). The SNI Combined Group’s share of each Combined State Total Tax Liability (“SNI Group State Tax Liability”) will be based on the apportionment percentage of all members of the SNI Combined Group, determined with reference only to those companies that are subject to such state’s taxing jurisdiction, as if such members of the SNI Combined Group had filed a separate Combined Return. The SNI Group State Tax Liability will include any minimum or similar Taxes for members of each SNI Combined Group that may be required by the relevant state or locality. SNI shall be responsible for and pay to EWS, and shall indemnify EWS and EWS Affiliates from and against the SNI Group State Tax Liability for each Combined Return for all taxable years ending on or before December 31, 2007. Any Combined State Total Tax Liability in excess of the SNI Group State Tax Liability (“EWS Group State Tax Liability”) shall be the responsibility of EWS and EWS shall indemnify SNI and SNI Affiliates

     SECTION 3.03. Operating Losses. Consistent with the approach applied for operating units of Total Combined Groups, the SNI Group State Tax Liability will not be reduced by, nor will SNI or any other SNI Combined Group member receive any payment, credit or benefit for, U.S. state or local net operating losses (“NOLs”), including any carryback or carryover NOLs, that any such member generates for U.S. state or local income Tax purposes on a stand-alone basis, whether or not they are used in a Combined Return (except insofar as such NOLs may reduce the SNI Combined Group’s share of the total U.S. state and local Tax liability for a Total Combined Return).

     SECTION 3.04. 2008 Taxable Year. For the taxable years beginning on January 1, 2008, the Parties shall determine the SNI Combined Group’s share of the total U.S state and local Tax liability in each Combined State in the same manner as set forth in Sections 3.02 and 3.03 above, taking into account the apportionment percentages and other relevant items of each appropriate SNI Combined Group through and including the Distribution Date. SNI shall be responsible for and pay to EWS, and shall indemnify EWS and the EWS Affiliates from and against, the SNI Group State Tax Liability for all Combined Returns and all Taxes attributable to the income of CPMCO for the taxable years beginning January 1, 2008.

EWS and SNI agree that Combined Returns filed for Tax periods beginning January 1, 2008, will reflect a short taxable year for SNI ending on the Distribution Date in any state or local taxing jurisdiction in which such Tax year is allowed by administrative practice, whether or not required by law.

     SECTION 3.06. Estimated Taxes. Etc. For each Combined State, the Parties will determine the SNI Combined Group’s estimated Tax payments and extension payments (collectively, “Estimated State Taxes”), will prescribe the information required to be provided by the SNI Combined Group to support EWS’s preparation and filing of Combined Returns and payment of Estimated State Taxes, together with a schedule of due dates for providing of such information and paying its share of Estimated State Taxes, and SNI will timely and accurately provide and pay the same to EWS, the Parties will calculate the aggregate SNI Group State Tax Liability for all Combined States for a Combined Year less a credit for aggregate Estimated State Taxes paid or determine the refund due to SNI to the extent aggregate Estimated State Taxes paid by SNI exceed the aggregate SNI Group State Tax Liability. Payment by SNI is due within one (1) business day before the date such Tax are required to be paid. Payment by EWS to SNI of any SNI overpayment is due within five (5) business days after the return including the overpayment is filed.

     SECTION 3.07. Adjustments.

     (a) If an Adjustment occurs, the SNI Group State Tax Liability for the year in question shall be recomputed by the Parties, including all changes to apportionment percentages that result from such Adjustment. SNI shall make payments to EWS for an increase in the SNI Group Tax Liability or EWS shall make payments to SNI for a decrease in the SNI Group Tax Liability, including its allocable share of interest, penalties and additions to Tax and external costs. Payment in respect of such Adjustments by SNI is due at least one (1) business day before the date payment of such Adjustment is required to be made. Payment in respect of such Adjustments by EWS is due within five (5) business days after EWS receives a refund or credit for refund in respect of the items in question.

     (b) Subject to Article VIII, the Parties shall jointly control all Tax Contests relating to any such Adjustments.

     SECTION 4.03. Separate Return Adjustments. If there is an adjustment to a separate Tax Return of EWS and/or EWS Affiliates, or SNI and/or SNI Affiliates, as the case may be, that results in the inclusion in income in such Tax Return of income attributable to the other group of companies, and the recipient thereby incurs an Income Tax Detriment, SNI shall pay to EWS or EWS shall pay to SNI, as the case may be, an amount equal to such Income Tax Detriment (including any interest, penalties and additions to Tax) within thirty (30) business days after the Final Determination of such Income Tax Detriment.

EWS will not take or fail to take or permit any EWS Affiliates to take or fail to take any action inconsistent with or that will cause to be untrue any material information or representation in the Ruling Documents, Representation Letters or formal advice or opinion.

open market repurchases of less than 10%, in the aggregate, of EWS Class A Common Shares provided such stock repurchases meet the requirements of Rev, Proc. 96-30, 1996-1 C.B. 696); (v) amend its certificate of incorporation (or other organizational documents), or take any other action, whether through a stockholder vote or otherwise, affecting the relative voting rights of the separate classes of EWS Capital Stock (including, without limitation, through the conversion of one class of EWS Capital Stock into another class of EWS Capital Stock) or (vi) take any other action or actions (including any action or transaction that would be reasonably likely to be inconsistent with any representation made in the Ruling Documents, or Representation Letters, or any rulings, formal advice or opinion described in Section 5.01 above) which in the aggregate (taking into account any other transactions described in this Section 5.03) would be reasonably likely to have the effect of causing or permitting one or more Persons (whether or not acting in concert) to acquire, directly or indirectly, EWS Capital Stock representing a Fifty-Percent or Greater Interest in EWS or otherwise jeopardize the Tax-Free Status, unless prior to taking any such action set forth in the foregoing clauses (i) through (vi), (A) EWS shall have obtained a private letter ruling from the IRS and EWS shall have received such a ruling in form and substance satisfactory to SNI that confirms that the Tax-Free Status will be preserved, taking into account such action and other transactions in the aggregate, or (B) EWS shall provide SNI with an Unqualified Tax Opinion in form and substance acceptable to SNI (and on which SNI may rely) that confirms that the Tax-Free Status will be preserved, taking into account such action and other transactions in the aggregate, or (C) SNI shall have waived the requirement to obtain such ruling or opinion. In determining whether such a ruling or opinion is satisfactory, SNI may consider, among other factors, the appropriateness of any underlying assumptions and representations made in connection with such ruling or opinion. To the extent that any such ruling or opinion concerns the acquisition of a Fifty-Percent or Greater Interest in EWS, it shall expressly conclude that such acquisition will satisfy one or more of the safe harbors described in the Treasury Regulations promulgated under Section 355(e) of the Code. EWS shall bear all costs and expenses of securing any such ruling or opinion and shall reimburse EWS for all external costs and expenses that it may incur in good faith in seeking to obtain or evaluate any such ruling or opinion.

     SECTION 5.04. Indemnity.

     (a) Subject to subsection (c) of this section, SNI shall be responsible for, and shall indemnify and hold EWS and EWS Affiliates and their direct and indirect shareholders harmless against any Distribution Taxes, to the extent such Distribution Taxes are attributable to, caused by, or result from one or more of the following:

          (i) any action or omission by SNI or any SNI Affiliate, at any time, that is inconsistent with any information, covenant or representation in the Ruling Documents, Representation Letters or any tax opinions concerning the Tax-Free Status of the Distribution;

          (ii) any action or omission by SNI or any SNI Affiliate, after the Distribution (including any act or omission that is in furtherance of, connected to, or part of a plan or series of related transactions (within the meaning of section 355(e) of the Code) occurring on or prior to the Distribution), including a cessation, transfer to affiliates, or disposition of the active trades or businesses, stock buyback or payment of an extraordinary dividend;

          (iii) any acquisition of any stock or assets of SNI or any SNI Affiliate, by one or more other Persons (other than EWS or any EWS Affiliate) prior to or following the Distribution;

     (b) Subject to subsection (c) of this section, EWS shall be responsible for, and shall indemnify and hold SNI and SNI Affiliates and their direct and indirect shareholders harmless against any Distribution Taxes, to the extent such Distribution Taxes are attributable to, caused by, or result from one or more of the following:

          (i) any action or omission by EWS or any EWS Affiliate, at any time, that is inconsistent with any information, covenant or representation in the Ruling Documents, Representation Letters or any tax opinions concerning the Tax-Free Status of the Distribution;

          (ii) any action or omission by EWS or any EWS Affiliate, after the Distribution (including any act or omission that is in furtherance of, connected to, or part of a plan or series of related transactions (within the meaning of section 355(e) of the Code) occurring on or prior to the Distribution), including a cessation, transfer to affiliates, or disposition of the active trades or businesses, stock buyback or payment of an extraordinary dividend;

          (iii) any acquisition of any stock or assets of EWS or any EWS Affiliate, by one or more other Persons prior to or following the Distribution;

     (c) For purposes of calculating the amount and timing of any Tax-Related Loss in connection with any Tax payable by an indemnified party, such loss shall be calculated by assuming that the indemnified party pays income Tax at the Highest Combined Tax Rate in effect in each relevant taxable year and that the income arising in connection with the Tax-Related Losses is the only item of income, deduction, Credit or loss for such year. SNI shall pay EWS or such other applicable indemnified party the amount of any such Tax-Related Losses for which SNI is responsible under this Section 5.04 within one (1) business day before payment is due from EWS or such other party. EWS shall pay SNI or such other applicable indemnified party the amount of any such Tax-Related Losses for which EWS is responsible under this Section 5.04 within one (1) business day before payment is due from SNI or such other party.

ARTICLE VI
CARRYOVER AND CARRYBACK ITEMS

     SECTION 6.01. Carryovers to Post-Affiliation Years. The Parties will apportion any U.S. federal consolidated net operating or capital losses, Credits or other applicable items between members of the SNI Group (departing from the EWS Group as a consequence of the Distribution and related transactions) and members of the EWS Group (not taking into account SNI Group members) pursuant to applicable Treasury Regulations promulgated under Section 1502 of the Code. Such consolidated items and their apportionment will be adjusted to reflect any Adjustments that take place in applicable Affiliation Years.

     SECTION 6.02. Carrybacks from Post-Affiliation Years.

     (a) Carryback Items. If SNI and/or its subsidiaries sustain U.S. federal capital or net operating losses or generate U.S. federal Credits in a Post-Affiliation Year which may be carried back to an Affiliation Year and will generate an Income Tax Benefit, SNI may request EWS to file a Section 6.02 Claim with the IRS with respect to the U.S. federal income Tax liability of the EWS Group for such Affiliation Year. EWS shall have sole discretion whether to accept a request to file carryback claims (except for foreign Tax Credit or domestic source capital loss carryback claims) and file any amended Tax Returns or claims for refund relating thereto, which discretion may be exercised without regard to satisfying a standard of good faith or any other standard provided for in this Agreement or elsewhere. With regard to requests to file foreign Tax Credit or domestic source capital loss carryback claims to an Affiliation Year, EWS will implement such requests it determines in good faith to be available on the terms set forth hereinafter.

     (b) Procedures. If EWS files a Section 6.02 Claim, EWS shall have full control over the Section 6.02 Claim and will consult with SNI to determine the nature of all actions to be taken in connection with such claim. If there is any limitation that applies to the EWS Group in respect of all or a portion of the items that comprise a Section 6.02 Claim in respect of foreign Tax Credits or domestic source capital losses, any Income Tax Benefit in respect of such claim shall be determined by EWS in consultation with SNI. If there any limitations in the ability of the EWS Group to utilize items in the same category as the items that comprise such claim, any Income Tax Benefit will be determined by EWS in consultation with SNI based on the assumption that the items were utilized on a Proportionate Basis, EWS will pay to SNI the amount of the Income Tax Benefit, if any, derived from such claim within 30 business days after it receives a refund or credit for refund therefor. SNI will repay to EWS all or a portion of such amount to the extent the Income Tax Benefit is reduced as a result of an Adjustment for any Affiliation Year or otherwise, together with applicable interest and penalties. If EWS elects to file a Section 6.02 Claim in respect of the carryback of any attribute other than foreign Tax Credits or domestic source capital losses, the terms for payment and other provisions shall be determined based upon the mutual agreement, if any, of the Parties. If EWS files a Section 6.02 Claim, SNI will indemnify EWS for any additional Taxes or loss of Tax benefits incurred by a member of the EWS Group (including interest, penalties and additions to Tax) arising from such claim. EWS shall also be entitled to reimbursement

- 20 -

from SNI for any reasonable external costs for professional services incurred by EWS in connection with the Section 6.02 Claim whether or not SNI receives payment or credit therefor.

ARTICLE VII
U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX ADJUSTMENTS

     SECTION 7.01. Determination. If an Adjustment occurs, the liability of SNI or EWS, as the case may be, pursuant to Article II hereof, or the amounts allocated pursuant to Article VI, shall be recomputed by the Parties. As recomputed for purposes of Article II, SNI shall make payments to EWS for an increase in SNI’s liability or EWS shall make payments to SNI for an increase in EWS’ liability. For purposes of Sections 2.01 and 2.02, SNI’s liability shall be deemed to have increased by any Adjustment that results in an increase in the Adjusted Separate SNI Group Federal Tax Liability or a decrease in the Excess EWS Group Benefits, and EWS’ liability shall be deemed to have increased by any Adjustment that results in a decrease in the Adjusted Separate SNI Group Federal Tax Liability or an increase in the Excess EWS Group Benefits.

     SECTION 7.02. Payments. Payments due from SNI to EWS shall be made no later than one (1) business day before the due date for payment by EWS to a Taxing authority upon the Final Determination of the items in question, or, to the extent no such payment is due, within ten (10) business days after the date of such Final Determination. Payments due from EWS to SNI shall be made within ten (10) business days after EWS receives a refund or a credit for a refund with regard to the items in question after a Final Determination therefor. Such payments shall include any applicable interest, penalties and additions to Tax and, if applicable, any reasonable external costs for professional services incurred by EWS thereon. In calculating any interest payable by SNI to EWS hereunder, interest, if any, due from EWS to the IRS shall first be deemed to arise with respect to the increase in the liability of SNI, as determined above.

     SECTION 7.03. Procedures. Subject to Section 6.02 hereof, for any Affiliation Year or Combined Year, the Parties will determine whether to give effect, through any Tax Return, claim for refund or otherwise, to items of loss, deduction or Credit for the SNI Group which are greater than those reflected on prior Tax Returns and the nature of all actions taken with respect thereto. If EWS files such a claim, SNI will indemnify EWS for any additional Taxes or loss of Tax benefits incurred by a member of the EWS Group or the applicable Total Combined Group (including interest, penalties and additions to Tax) arising from such claim.

     SECTION 7.04. Intercompany Adjustments. If any transaction or arrangement between EWS and/or EWS Affiliates, on the one hand, and SNI and/or SNI Affiliates, on the other hand, is recharacterized for applicable Tax purposes under Section 482 of the Code or otherwise and such recharacterization results in an Income Tax Detriment to one applicable group of companies and an Income Tax Benefit to the other group, the group incurring the Income Tax Detriment shall be paid by the other group an amount equal to such Income Tax Detriment (including any interest, penalties and additions to Tax) within thirty (30) business days after the Final Settlement of such Income Tax Detriment. In addition, each Party hereto shall be responsible for, and shall indemnify and hold the other Party and its Affiliates harmless against, any Taxes attributable to intercompany items or otherwise for any stock or other assets (tangible or intangible) transferred to it (or an EWS Affiliate, in the case of EWS, or an SNI Affiliate, in the case of SNI) from the other Party hereto (or an EWS Affiliate, in the case of EWS, or an SNI Affiliate, in the case of SNI) for which it is determined not to have paid or provided fair market value consideration.

INCOME TAX PROCEEDINGS

- 21 -

     SECTION 8.01. Notice. Each Party shall provide prompt notice to the other Party of any pending or threatened Tax audit, assessment, proceeding or other Tax Contest of which it becomes aware that could affect any Tax liability for which the other Party may be responsible under this Agreement; provided, however, that failure to give prompt notice shall not affect the indemnification obligations hereunder except to the extent the Party providing indemnification is actually prejudiced thereby. Such notice shall contain factual information (to the extent known) describing such matters in reasonable detail and shall be accompanied by copies of any notice and other documents received from any Taxing authority in respect of any such matters.

     SECTION 8.02. SNI and EWS Issues. EWS and SNI hereby agree that during the course of an audit or any Tax Contest relating to any Affiliation Year, they will in good faith endeavor to discuss and resolve separately with the IRS district agents or any equivalent state or local Taxing authority any SNI Issues and EWS Issues. “SNI Issues” are issues relating to items of income, gain, loss, deduction, or Credit that are attributable solely to the SNI Group and that could not reasonably have material adverse consequences for the U.S. federal, state or local income Tax liability of a member of the EWS Group (other than a member of the SNI Group) if resolved against the taxpayer. “EWS Issues” are any other issues, including issues relating to Foreign Attributes of the SNI Group.

     SECTION 8.03. Procedures.

     (a) In the event a Revenue Agent’s Report (“RAR”) or equivalent state or local report is issued with respect to an Affiliation Year and the RAR or equivalent state or local report contains Adjustments proposed with respect to SNI Issues, at SNI’s request, EWS shall protest (as provided for in applicable Treasury Regulations or applicable state or local rules and regulations) the adjustments made with respect to SNI Issues. SNI will prepare that portion of any protest which it determines should be filed in connection with any Adjustment proposed with respect to SNI Issues and shall limit such portion of the protest to the defense of the specific SNI Issues raised in the RAR or equivalent state or local report.

     (b) After the filing of such protest, EWS and SNI shall jointly meet with the IRS, state or local representatives responsible for disposing of the issues in dispute and request the separate resolution of the EWS and SNI Issues. They shall further request that the IRS or equivalent state or local Taxing authority assign separate representatives to conduct any review of or proceedings on their respective issues.

     (c) Regardless of whether the IRS or equivalent state or local Taxing authority agrees to resolve the issues affecting each Party or assign separate representatives to deal with the issues of each, EWS and SNI each will attend meetings and will prepare written presentations to be made to the IRS regarding any Adjustments proposed only with respect to its respective issues. EWS and SNI shall keep each other promptly informed of any developments and discussions at any such meetings concerning Adjustments, whether or not formally proposed, affecting the other Party.

     (d) For each Affiliation Year, EWS shall have control of all EWS Issues not otherwise settled at the audit or appeals level of the IRS or equivalent state or local Taxing authority. For each Affiliation Year, SNI shall have control of all SNI Issues not otherwise settled by SNI at the audit or appeals level of the IRS or equivalent state or local Taxing authority (“SNI Unsettled Issues”).

     (e) To the extent any EWS Issues could affect any Tax liability for which the SNI Group may be responsible, SNI shall have joint control over decisions to resolve, settle or otherwise agree to any deficiency, claim or Adjustment, and EWS shall not settle any such EWS Issue without the consent of SNI, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld. To the extent that any SNI Issues could affect any

- 22 -

Tax liability for which the EWS Group may be responsible, EWS shall have joint control over decisions to resolve, settle or otherwise agree to any deficiency, claim or Adjustment, and SNI shall not settle any such SNI Issue without the consent of EWS, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld.

     SECTION 8.04. Forum for Judicial Proceedings.

     (a) Prior to instituting legal proceedings with respect to an SNI Unsettled Issue, SNI shall, at its sole cost and expense, unless EWS agrees to waive the same, obtain an evaluation of the SNI Unsettled Issues from an independent attorney experienced in the field of U.S. federal corporate income Taxation, who shall be selected jointly by the Parties and who, in the case of a listed or reportable transaction for U.S. federal income Tax Purposes, is not a disqualified Tax advisor within the meaning of Section 6664(d)(3)(B)(ii) of the Code. The evaluation shall state, for the SNI Unsettled Issues on an issue by issue basis, whether, in the opinion of the attorney (which in the case of a listed transaction or reportable transaction for U.S. federal income Tax purposes does not constitute a disqualified Tax opinion as defined in Section 6664(d) of the Code) the filing position will more likely than not be sustained. Any discussions with respect to the evaluation shall be held with both Parties jointly, and such attorney shall send a copy of the evaluation (including any drafts thereof) to both Parties simultaneously.

     (b) If the evaluation discloses any SNI Unsettled Issues which do not fully meet the aforementioned standards as applicable, SNI shall be obligated to settle such issues with the IRS or equivalent state or local authority at its own cost and expense within a reasonable period of time after receipt of the evaluation. In any case where judicial proceedings are instituted, with respect to an Affiliation Year, EWS shall be entitled to select the forum for such judicial proceedings, unless such proceedings involve SNI Unsettled Issues or issues that could affect any Tax liability for which the SNI Group may be responsible. If SNI Unsettled Issues or issues that could affect any Tax liability for which the SNI Group may be responsible are involved, SNI shall be entitled to participate in the selection of the forum for judicial proceedings. Each Party shall bear the costs of litigation in respect of its own issues.

     (c) Prior to instituting legal proceedings with respect to an EWS Unsettled Issue, EWS shall, at its sole cost and expense, unless SNI agrees to waive the same, obtain an evaluation of the EWS Unsettled Issues from an independent attorney experienced in the field of U.S. federal corporate income Taxation, who shall be selected jointly by the Parties and who, in the case of a listed or reportable transaction for U.S. federal income Tax Purposes, is not a disqualified Tax advisor within the meaning of Section 6664(d)(3)(B)(ii) of the Code.

Any discussions with respect to the evaluation shall be held with both Parties jointly, and such attorney shall send a copy of the evaluation (including any drafts thereof) to both Parties simultaneously.

     (d) If the evaluation discloses any EWS Unsettled Issues which do not fully meet the aforementioned standards as applicable, EWS shall be obligated to settle such issues with the IRS or equivalent state or local authority at its own cost and expense within a reasonable period of time after receipt of the evaluation. EWS shall be entitled to select the forum for such judicial proceedings, unless such proceedings involve SNI Unsettled Issues or issues that could affect any Tax liability for which the SNI Group may be responsible. If EWS Unsettled Issues or issues that could affect any Tax liability for which the SNI Group may be responsible are involved, SNI shall be entitled to participate in the selection of the forum for judicial proceedings. Each Party shall bear the costs of litigation in respect of its own issues.

     (b) A Party that wishes to initiate the dispute resolution process shall send written notice to the other Party, in accordance with Section 14.11, with a summary of the controversy and a request to initiate these dispute resolution procedures.

negotiations are not so exempted and may, if otherwise admissible, be admitted in evidence in the arbitration or lawsuit. The Parties agree to pursue resolution under this subsection for a minimum of 30 calendar days before requesting arbitration.

     (c) If the dispute is not resolved under the preceding subsection within 30 calendar days of the initial written notice, either Party may demand arbitration by sending written notice to the other Party.

Judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction over the Parties. Each Party to the dispute shall bear its own expenses arising out of the arbitration, except that the Parties shall share the expenses of the facilities to conduct the arbitration and the fees of the arbitrator equally.

     (d) The foregoing notwithstanding, each Party shall have the right to seek injunctive relief in an applicable court of law or equity to preserve the status quo pending resolution of the dispute and enforce any decision relating to the resolution of the dispute.

     (e) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the dispute resolution provisions set forth in this Section 14.11 shall not be applicable to any disagreement between the Parties relating to Distribution Taxes and any such dispute shall be settled in a court of law or as otherwise agreed to by the Parties.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties hereto have entered into this Agreement as of the date first above written.
