(i) With respect to such Common Stock:

shares of Common Stock after such time as the Gores Investors, collectively, have already
Transferred 10% or more of the Common Stock outstanding on the date hereof (including any shares of
Preferred Stock counted on an as-converted basis) to a Person other than a Related Person (the
“Purchaser”), other than pursuant to (1) Section 4.02, (2) an
effective registration statement under the 1933 Act or (3) a sale pursuant to Rule 144 under
the 1933 Act for so long as such Gores Investor is an Affiliate of the Company as set forth in such
rule, Gores shall give written notice (a “Tag-Along Notice”) of such proposed Transfer (a
“Tag-Along Sale”) to the Investor Stockholders at least 7 Business Days prior to the consummation
of such proposed Transfer, setting forth: (i) the total number of shares of Common Stock offered to
be Transferred to the Purchaser (the “Offered Shares”) and the purchase price per share,

(ii) any other material terms and conditions of the proposed Transfer, including whether the
Purchaser will purchase all shares proffered,
(iii) the expected date of the proposed Transfer, and
(iv) an undertaking that each such Investor Stockholder shall have the right to elect to sell
up to its Pro Rata Portion of such Offered Shares in accordance with the procedures set forth in
Section 4.01(b).
(b) Upon delivery of a Tag-Along Notice, each Investor Stockholder shall have the right, but
not the obligation, to sell up to its Pro Rata Portion of the Offered Shares at the same price per
share of Capital Stock for the same form of consideration and pursuant to the same terms and
conditions as set forth in the Tag-Along Notice by sending written notice to Gores not less than 7
Business Days after the date of the Tag-Along Notice, indicating its election to sell up to its Pro
Rata Portion of such Offered Shares in the same transaction. Each Tag-Along Stockholder shall be
permitted to sell to the Purchaser on the same terms and conditions as are applicable to the
proposed Transfer by such Gores Investor that number of shares of its Common Stock as to which it
has validly made its election and Gores shall be permitted to concurrently sell the balance of the
shares of Common Stock that are the subject of the Tag-Along Notice that are not sold by the
Tag-Along Stockholders.
(c) No Tag-Along Stockholder shall be required to make representations and warranties in
connection with such sale, other than representations and warranties, on a several basis, with
respect to (i) the Company, to the extent also given by Gores, any such representations and
warranties to be made only to the extent of the knowledge, without any investigation, of the
individual employees of such Tag-Along Stockholder responsible for management of such Tag-Along
Stockholder’s investment in the Preferred Stock or Common Stock, as the case may be,
provided that the Person or Persons in whose favor the representations and warranties run
acknowledges in writing that such Stockholder’s liability for a breach of any such representations
and warranties (whether made by such Tag-Along Stockholder or by Gores) is limited with respect to
the Tag-Along Stockholder as provided in the second and third sentences of this Section 4.01(c) or
the fourth and fifth sentences of Section 4.02(d), as applicable, (ii) such Tag-Along Stockholder’s
due organization, power and authority, (iii) such Tag-Along Stockholder’s ownership of the shares
and ability to freely convey such shares without liens or encumbrances (other than those that arise
under federal or state securities laws or by virtue of this Agreement), (iv) non-contravention of
such Tag-Along Stockholder’s charter, bylaws or other organizational documents or material
agreements of such Tag-Along Stockholder and (v) the enforceable nature of such Tag-Along
Stockholder’s obligations under the documents for such sale to which it is a party (subject in each
case to customary qualifications) (collectively, the “Stockholder Representations”). No
Tag-Along Stockholder shall be required to participate in any escrow or indemnity obligations
relating to such Tag-Along Sale in excess of such Tag-Along Stockholder’s pro rata participation in
the Tag-Along Sale (based on proceeds
to be received). Any indemnity obligation of a Tag-Along Stockholder in connection with a
Tag-Along Sale in which it will participate will be several and not joint and will be limited to
its pro rata share of the actual amount of such indemnification obligation and in no event shall
its payment (or deemed payment) in respect thereof, together with all other indemnification
payments (or deemed payments) in respect of such Tag-Along Sale, be greater than (A) the amount of
consideration actually received by it at or before the time such indemnification payment is made
and (B) the forfeit by such Tag-Along Stockholder of any consideration to which it is entitled but
has not yet received (including, without limitation, as a result of an escrow agreement, earn-out
or similar arrangement) in the Tag-Along Sale. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, a
Stockholder participating in a Tag-Along Sale or a Sale will have an indemnity obligation (subject
to the limitations provided in the second and third sentences of this Section 4.01(c) or the fourth
and fifth sentences of Section 4.02(d), as applicable) for breaches of representations and
warranties made by Gores in respect of the Company even if such Stockholder did not itself make the
representations or warranties or made a more limited representation or warranty.
8
(d) If no Investor Stockholder elects to sell shares of Common Stock pursuant to this Section
4.01, such Gores Investor shall have the right for a period of 120 days (which period may be
extended to 180 days to the extent necessary to satisfy any Conditions) after the expiration of the
7 Business Day period referred to in Section 4.01(b) to Transfer the Offered Shares subject to the
Tag-Along Notice to the Purchaser at a price not greater than the price contained in, and otherwise
on terms and conditions no more favorable to such Gores Investor than those set forth in, the
Tag-Along Notice. After the end of the 120-day period referred to in this Section 4.01(d)
(including any permitted extension thereof), such Gores Investor will not effect any transaction in
any shares of Common Stock that are the subject of the Tag-Along Notice without commencing
de novo the procedures set forth in this Section 4.01.
SECTION 4.02. Drag-Along Rights. (a) If a Gores Investor desires to effect a Sale, it
shall have the right to require the Investor Stockholders to:
(i) sell all Common Stock and Preferred Stock held by them at the same price per share, for
the same form of consideration (which shall be cash) and pursuant to the same terms and conditions
as are applicable to the Gores Investor;
(ii) vote such Common Stock and Preferred Stock in favor of the transactions constituting a
Sale;
(iii) tender their shares of Common Stock and Preferred Stock;
(iv) waive their appraisal or dissenters’ rights with respect to such transaction; and
(v) otherwise participate in such Sale on the same terms and conditions as are applicable to
Gores.
Each Investor Stockholder agrees to take any and all action in furtherance of the foregoing
reasonably requested by the Gores Investor.
(b) Each Investor Stockholder agrees to vote for the approval of the transaction constituting
a Sale under this Section 4.02 and such agreement is given as a condition of this Agreement and as
such is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable. This voting agreement shall remain in full
force and effect throughout the time that this Section 4.02 is in effect.
(c) The Gores Investors will give each Investor Stockholder at least 7 Business Days advance
notice of a Sale.
9
(d) Not later than 7 Business Days following the date a Gores Investor delivers a written
notice to each of the Investor Stockholders that it has entered into or will enter into a
definitive agreement with a purchaser in connection with a Sale within 10 Business Days of the date
of such notice, each Investor Stockholder shall deliver one or more certificates representing the
shares held by such Investor Stockholder to be transferred, accompanied by duly executed stock
powers to an escrow agent pursuant to escrow arrangements reasonably acceptable to the Gores
Investor and the Investor Stockholders providing for release concurrently with the consummation of
such Sale and requiring the return thereof to each Investor Stockholder on the date 60 days after
the date of such notice if such Sale has not been consummated by such 60th day. If any Investor
Stockholder fails to deliver such certificates to the Gores Investor, then the Gores Investor shall
provide written notice of such failure to the Company in accordance with Section 5.01. Upon
receipt of such notice, the Company agrees that it shall not record the transfer of such shares on
the books and records of the Company and shall promptly direct the Company’s transfer agent, if
any, that the transfer agent shall also not record the transfer of such shares on the books and
records of the Company. In connection with such Sale, no such Investor Stockholder shall be
required to (i) make any representations other than Stockholder Representations or (ii) participate
in any escrow or indemnity obligation relating to such Sale in excess of such Investor
Stockholder’s pro rata participation in the Sale (based on proceeds to be received). Any indemnity
obligation of an Investor Stockholder in connection with a Sale in which it will participate will
be several and not joint and will be limited to its pro rata share of the actual amount of such
indemnification obligation and in no event shall its payment (or deemed payment) in respect
thereof, together with all other indemnification payments (or deemed payments) in respect of such
Sale, be greater than (A) the amount of consideration actually received by it at or before the time
such indemnification payment is made and (B) the forfeit by such Investor Stockholder of any
consideration to which it is entitled but has not yet received (including, without limitation, as a
result of an escrow agreement, earn-out or similar arrangement). (Upon such return, each
Stockholder Investor shall be able to Transfer freely the Common Stock and Preferred Stock held by
it, subject to Section 3.02 and subject to a new notice delivered pursuant to this Section
4.02(d).)
(e) The Company shall take all actions necessary or reasonably requested to consummate any
Sale and shall use its reasonable best efforts to facilitate the Sale, including:
(1) securing the services of an investment bank, selected by the Gores Investor and
reasonably acceptable to the Company to assist in procuring a purchaser;
(2) preparing or assisting in the preparation of due diligence materials;
(3) making such due diligence materials available to prospective purchasers;
(4) making its directors, officers and employees available to prospective purchasers
for presentations and due diligence interviews; and
(5) entering into customary agreements with respect to the Sale.
SECTION 4.03. Preemptive Notice. (a) If securities are issued pursuant to an Eligible
Offering, the Company shall give written notice (a “Preemptive Notice”) thereof to each
Stockholder. The Preemptive Notice shall:
(1) specify the security or securities issued, the purchasers, the date of issuance
(which date shall not be more than fifteen (15) days prior to the date of delivery of the
Preemptive Notice), the consideration that the Company received therefor and all other
material terms and conditions of such issuance, and
10
(2) contain an offer to sell to each Stockholder at the same price and for the same
consideration paid or to be paid by the purchaser, an amount sufficient for such Stockholder
to maintain its Pro Rata Portion of Common Stock prior to the issuance in the Eligible
Offering.
(b) For a period of ten (10) Business Days following the delivery of such Preemptive Notice,
each such Stockholder shall be entitled, by written notice to the Company, to elect to purchase all
or part of the securities described therein. To the extent that elections pursuant to this Section
4.03 shall not be made with respect to any offered securities within such ten-Business Day period,
then the Company shall not be obligated to issue to such Stockholder such securities for which such
Stockholder has elected not to purchase. In the event that any such offer is accepted by any
Stockholder, the Company shall sell to such Stockholder, and such Stockholder shall purchase from
the Company for the consideration and on the terms set forth in the Preemptive Notice the
securities that such Stockholder has elected to purchase within ten (10) Business Days of such
Stockholder’s election to purchase such securities (subject to delay for satisfaction of any
Conditions); provided that in no event shall such securities be purchased by an electing
Stockholder prior to the issuance of the securities in the Eligible Offering triggering such
Preemptive Notice.
(c) The Company shall in respect of any issuance of securities required to be issued pursuant
to this Section 4.03 effect such increases in the authorized securities of the Company as may be
necessary to permit such issuance. The Company shall comply with any applicable securities laws
before issuing any securities pursuant to this Section 4.03 and shall not be in violation of the
provisions hereof by reason of such compliance; provided, that it uses commercially reasonable
efforts to so comply.
SECTION 4.04. Board of Directors. So long as the Original Investor Stockholders in
the aggregate own the Minimum Number, the Board shall nominate for election as director, one
nominee designated in writing to Gores and the Company by the holders of a majority of the Common
Stock (including Preferred Stock on an as-converted basis) held by such Original Investor
Stockholders. If such director is not reasonably acceptable to Gores, Gores shall notify the
Original Investor Stockholders and they shall nominate replacement nominees until a replacement
nominee is reasonably acceptable to Gores (the “Investor Nominee”). Gores agrees to vote
or otherwise give Gores’ consent in respect of all shares of Common Stock owned by Gores for the
election to the Board of the Investor Nominee. At such time as the Original Investor Stockholders
in the aggregate own less than the Minimum Number, they shall request the Investor Nominee to
resign and, if the Investor Nominee shall not resign, shall vote the Capital Stock held by them in
favor of removal of the Investor Nominee.
SECTION 4.05. Charter Amendment. Each Stockholder hereby irrevocably agrees that at
every meeting of the stockholders of the Company called, and at every postponement or adjournment
thereof, and on every action or approval by written consent of the stockholders of the Company, it
will vote all shares of Capital Stock owned by it in favor of the approval of the Charter Amendment
(as defined in the Purchase Agreement), and any action in furtherance of the foregoing. From and
after the date of this Agreement for a period of 9 months or, if earlier, the date of approval of
the Charter Amendment by the stockholders of the Company, no Stockholder shall Transfer any shares
of Capital Stock directly or indirectly without obtaining an agreement in writing from the
Transferee whereby the Transferee agrees with the Company and the other Stockholders party hereto
to be bound by the terms and provisions of this Section 4.05.
11
SECTION 4.06. Piggyback Registration Rights. If (but without any obligation to do so)
the Company proposes to register any of its stock or other securities under the 1933 Act in
connection with the public offering of such securities solely for cash (other than a registration
on Form S-8 (or similar or successor form) relating solely to the sale of securities to
participants in a Company stock plan or to other compensatory arrangements to the extent includable
on Form S-8 (or similar or successor form), or a registration on Form S-4 (or similar or successor
form)), the Company shall, at such time, promptly give each Investor Stockholder written notice of
such registration. Upon the written request of each Investor Stockholder given within 15 days
after mailing of such notice by the Company, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to
cause to be registered under the 1933 Act all of the Registrable Securities that each such
Stockholder has requested to be registered. The Company shall have no obligation under this
Section 4.06 to make any offering of its securities, or to complete an offering of its securities
that it proposes to make. If the registration of which the Company gives notice is for a
registered public offering involving an underwriting, the Company shall so advise the Investor
Stockholders as a part of the written notice given pursuant to this Section 4.06. All Investor
Stockholders requesting to distribute their securities through such underwriting shall, together
with the Company, enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriter or
underwriters for such underwriting; provided, however, that the Investor
Stockholders shall not be required by the Company to make any representations, warranties or
indemnities except as they relate to such Investor Stockholder’s ownership of shares and authority
to enter into the underwriting agreement and to such Investor Stockholder’s intended method of
distribution, and the liability of such Investor Stockholder shall be limited to an amount equal to
the net proceeds from the offering received by such Investor Stockholder.
(a) If the registration under this Section 4.06 is an underwritten registration on behalf of
holders of securities of the Company, and if the underwriter advises the Company that marketing
factors require a limitation of the number of shares to be underwritten, the underwriter may limit
the number of Registrable Securities to be included in the registration and underwriting. The
Company shall so advise all Investor Stockholders that would otherwise be underwritten pursuant
hereto. The number of shares, including Registrable Securities, that may be included in the
registration and underwriting shall be allocated as follows: (i) first, among holders of
securities requesting such registration and CBS, if CBS is not the holder requesting such
registration, to the extent, but only to the extent, CBS elects to participate in such underwritten
offering pursuant to the CBS Registration Rights Agreement, in each case in proportion (as nearly
as practicable) to the amount of registrable securities held by such holders, (ii) second, among
(A) all of the Investor Stockholders that have elected to participate in such underwritten offering
and (B) the Gores Investors, if the Gores Investors are not the holders requesting such
registration, to the extent, but only to the extent, the Gores Investors elect to participate
in such underwritten offering pursuant to the Gores Registration Rights Agreement, in each case in
proportion (as nearly as practicable) to the amount of Registrable Securities held by such
participating Investor Stockholders and the amount of shares of Common Stock (including the
Preferred Stock on an as converted basis) held by the Gores Investors (iii) thereafter, among all
other holders of Common Stock, if any, that have the right and have elected to participate in such
underwritten offering, in proportion (as nearly as practicable) to the amount of shares of Common
Stock owned by such holders.
12
(b) If the registration under this Section 4.06 is an underwritten registration on behalf of
the Company and if the underwriter advises the Company that marketing factors require a limitation
of the number of shares to be underwritten, the underwriter may limit the number of Registrable
Securities to be included in the registration and underwriting. The Company shall so advise all
Investor Stockholders that would otherwise be underwritten pursuant hereto. The number of shares,
including Registrable Securities, that may be included in the registration and underwriting shall
be allocated as follows: (i) first, the securities that the Company proposes to sell, (ii) second,
among (A) all of the Investor Stockholders that have elected to participate in such underwritten
offering, (B) the Gores Investors, if the Gores Investors are not the holders requesting such
registration, to the extent, but only to the extent, the Gores Investors elect to participate in
such underwritten offering pursuant to the Gores Registration Rights Agreement and (C) CBS, if CBS
is not the holder requesting such registration, to the extent, but only to the extent, CBS elects
to participate in such underwritten offering pursuant to the CBS Registration Rights Agreement, in
each case in proportion (as nearly as practicable) to the amount of Registrable Securities held by
such participating Investor Stockholders and the amount of shares of Common Stock (including the
Preferred Stock on an as converted basis) held by the Gores Investors and CBS and (iii) thereafter,
among all other holders of Common Stock, if any, that have the right and have elected to
participate in such underwritten offering, in proportion (as nearly as practicable) to the amount
of shares of Common Stock owned by such holders.
(c) Each Investor Stockholder agrees that if a managing underwriter reasonably determines it
is necessary in order to effect such underwritten public offering, at such managing underwriter’s
request, such Investor Stockholder will agree not to publicly sell any shares of Registrable
Securities that are not included in an underwritten public offering described in this Section 4.06
for a period, not to exceed the lesser of (a) 120 days and (b) the number of days that the Company,
any director or officer or any other selling stockholder is similarly restricted; provided
that if any such Person is released from its obligations to not publicly sell, then all Investor
Stockholders shall be released from their obligations under this Section 4.06(c) to the same
extent.
(d) Each Investor Stockholder covenants and agrees that it will comply with the prospectus
delivery requirements of the 1933 Act as applicable to it in connection with sales of Registrable
Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement.
(e) Each Investor Stockholder agrees by its acquisition of such Registrable Securities that,
upon receipt of a notice from the Company, such Investor Stockholder will forthwith discontinue
disposition of such Registrable Securities under a Registration Statement until such Investor
Stockholder’s receipt of the copies of the supplemented Prospectus and/or amended Registration
Statement or until it is advised in writing by the Company that the use of the applicable
Prospectus may be resumed, and, in either case, has received copies of any additional or
supplemental filings that are incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference in such
Prospectus or Registration Statement. The Company may provide appropriate stop orders to enforce
the provisions of this paragraph.
SECTION 4.07. ADTV. The Gores Investors agree to provide the Board with all relevant
information with respect to transactions by the Gores Investors that are required to be deducted
from the calculation of “ADTV” as such term is defined in the Certificate of Designations for the
Series B Preferred Stock.

contained herein.
SECTION 5.03. Amendment. Other than as a result of the execution and delivery of a
Joinder Agreement, this Agreement may not be amended, restated or modified in any respect except by
a written instrument executed by Requisite Stockholders and the Company. The failure at any time to

or liability arising hereunder or by reason hereof shall be assignable by either the Company or any

14
SECTION 5.05. Governing Law; Venue; Waiver of Jury Trial. All questions concerning
the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Agreement shall be governed by
and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York. Each
party agrees that all legal proceedings concerning the interpretations, enforcement and defense of
the Agreement (whether brought against a party hereto or its respective Affiliates, directors,
officers, stockholders, employees or agents) shall be commenced exclusively in the state and U.S.
federal courts sitting in The City of New York, Borough of Manhattan. Each party hereto hereby
irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and U.S. federal courts sitting in
The City of New York, Borough of Manhattan for the adjudication of any dispute hereunder or in
connection herewith or discussed herein (including with respect to the enforcement of any of this
Agreement), and hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert in any suit, action or
proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of any such court, that
such suit, action or proceeding is improper. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably waives personal
service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by
mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of
delivery) to such party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Agreement and agrees
that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof.
Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any
manner permitted by law. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent
permitted by applicable law, any and all right to trial by jury in any legal proceeding arising out

Agreement may be specifically enforced against each of the parties hereto in any court of competent
jurisdiction.
SECTION 5.07. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid
or unenforceable in any respect, the validity and enforceability of the remaining terms and
provisions of this Agreement shall not in any
way be affected or impaired thereby and the parties will attempt in good faith to agree upon a
valid and enforceable provision that is a reasonable substitute therefor and effects the original
intent of the parties as closely as possible, and upon so agreeing, shall incorporate such
substitute provision in this Agreement.
SECTION 5.08. Section and Other Headings. The section and other headings contained in
this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation
of this Agreement.
SECTION 5.09. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more
counterparts, all of which when taken together shall be considered one and the same agreement and
shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the other
party, it being understood that both parties need not sign the same counterpart. If any signature
is delivered by facsimile transmission, such signature shall create a valid and binding obligation
of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) the same with the same force
and effect as if such facsimile signature page were an original thereof.
15
SECTION 5.10. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the Exhibits hereto,
contain the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and
supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both oral or written.

notice to the Company, to visit the principal executive offices of the Company, to discuss the
affairs, finances and accounts of the Company and its Subsidiaries with the Company’s officers and,
with the consent of the Company (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld), to visit the
other offices and property of the Company and each Subsidiary, all at such reasonable times and as
often as may be reasonably requested in writing. In addition, the Company will deliver to each
Original Investor Stockholder such data and information relating to the business, operations,
affairs, financial condition, assets or property of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries as from
time to time may be reasonably requested by any such Original Investor Stockholder (including
without limitation consolidated quarterly and annual financial statements of the Company and its
Subsidiaries). Each Original Investor Stockholder hereby agrees to comply with the provisions of
Section 19 “Confidential Information” of the Securities Purchase Agreement as if it was a New
Noteholder subject to such agreement and such section is hereby incorporated herein mutatis
mutandis.
